News of the Mines and Oil Fields BI-METALS MINE TESTS ORE BODY RESULTS JUSTIFY BUILDING OF LARGE MILL HAMMOND WORKS AN ECONOMIC SYSTEM Conference in Los Angeles May Lead to' More Comprehensive Develop. ment Than at First Planned. Railroad to Chloride KINGMAN, Ariz., Jan. 25.—Drifting on the recent strike of rich ore in the Bi-Metal mines has been carried on with a view to getting results and showing up the extent of the ore body at that point. This part of the mine shows some of the finest specimen ore ever seen In this part of the country, the golci forming In* filigree all through the rock. The company expects to at begin the < construction of a large mill at once, i thirty stamps to be added to the pres- ] ent ten-stamp mill, and an entire, ihange made in the method of recovery of the sold from the ores. This change will necessitate the Installation of either a large sand wheel or a tailings stacker of some character, besides larger mill buildings in and around the mine. E. M. Lamont, general manager of the company, was called to Los Angeles last week by representatives of the John Hays Hammond interests for a conference. In the event the Ham mond people acquiesce in the demands of the Arizona Gold Mines company, 8 much greater plant than that outlined above will bo put In at the mines and a more comprehensive system of min ing will bo introduced. Work Out a System The Hammond people have prac tically worked out the system, having | had control of the mining and milling facilities of the company for a period of two months when the engineers were testing the ores, and have arrived at a method that Is thought will give the best results. The Bi-Metal la one of the greatest bodies of free milling gold ore on the Pacific coast, having a general width of over 700 feet, while tho shoot has been uncovered for a length of over 500 feet, where It passes under the great flow of basaltic lava, that rises, straight up 100 feet above the outcrop of the deposit. To the east of this capping the vein again shows Itself as massively - as at the point where the company's works are now established. The contract on the Carter shaft has been completed and the work of cross cutting is now under way. It is be lieved the vein will be cut within fif teen feet. The shaft now stands at a depth of 260 feet, and should the same ore body be found on this level that was opened on the 160-level the man agement will make arrangements for a reduction plant to handle the tonnage the property will be able to produce. The ore on the 160 level is said to bo one of the highest grado throughout than that of any other mine In the dis trict, and the ore body is of generous width. Daal Is Completed It is understood the deal on the Golden Gem mine has been completed and that the properties will be taken over as soon as the outside mines held by the old company have been surveyed and patent applied for. The company now has a surveyor at work getting things In shapa for patent and It will be but a few months until patent ap plication has been made. The new com pany will also take over a number of other mining properties and make a large group around the original mine. The Tennessee mine at Chloride Is soon to be one of the big shippers of the county, the old workings showing an immense tonnage of lead-zinc ores, suitable for concentration. It Is said that on the 500 level there is a body of mixed ore sixteen feet wide, from which a fine grado of concentrates can be shipped to Needles as soon as the Needles Smelting and Mining company has its concentrating plant In opera tion. The. Western railway of Arizona is ' grading and clearing off a new depot site at Chloride, which brings the ter minus of the road Into the town, a short distance from Tennessee avenue. The road will leave the main line and come In over tho first route surveyed, which will be a great convenience to the shipping public at that camp. It will be possible now to run spurs from the road to the Tennessee, Midnight and other large shipping propositions in the camp. 220 Tons of High Grade The Gold Road mill is now receiving daily 220 tons of high grade milling ore and the big plant is working like a charm. The extraction of values Is so close to tho 100 that the tailings are turned loose In the canyon, a rework ing at some future time being deemed inadvisable on account of the small values left in them. The big mill of the Tom Heed Is al most ready to be placed in service, only a. few minor details having to be worked out before It Is'turned over. The new shaft has reached quite a depth and as soon as It penetrates the old levels the extractions of ore will be carried on through it. In all the levels good ore is showing, and the be lief is quite general that the mine will assume greater proportions with depth. The old mill continues the work of of turning out big bars of gold bullion monthly. CLARK COPPER MAY TAKE OVER PARCEL IN MIDWAY SECTION The Clark Capper company, which has been Intending for some time to enter the oil business with a hope of making restitution to Its stockholder! for failure In the mining; came, has. It was seml-offlclally announced yesterday, de cided to acquire a parcel of land In sec tion 10 of the Midway Held. The property In view Is owned by the Union Oil company. Whether the deal Is for a lease or an outright purchase could not be learned, but it evidently nets at rmi the rumor that the Clark Copper company would enter the Kern river field, or the Coalinga ' field, as 'a later rumor had it. ' ' It Is said the treasury now baa about 111,000 left from former ventures. This will be Invested In the proponed oil en terprise. ' HTSTO ranews your courage. Try It.

BOSTON, Jan. 25.—Heavy liquidation con tinued throughout the list today and selling on stop loss orders, and the closing out of weak margined accounts and pools, together with bear raiding, caused the weakest session we have seen in- a long time. At no time did anything like organized support appear, and only occasional small rallies from the shorts relieved the decline. It Is saw the directors of the Anaconda company will hold a meeting to consider an Increase of the capital stock of that company for the purpose of absorbing the other Butto mines, including Amalgamated, which looks as If the Amalgamated merger is at last being brought to a head, and no doubt others will soon follow.

LOCAL MAN BUYS GROUP NEAR RAY PAYS $46,000 FOR SEVEN CLAIMS BOND CALLS FOR IMMEDIATE Dial VELOPMENT Promising, Property Adjoining Ray Copper Company's Holdings, Owned by Prospectors, Goes to Angeleno PHOENIX, Jan. 23.—A transaction has just been completed in this city between Dan McFarland. a Los Angeles mining man, and S. J. Trlbolet and as sociates of Phoenix whereby the for mer 1 takes a bond on a group of seven mining claims adjoining the Hay Cop per company's holdings for $46,000. Un der the terms of the bond the first pay ment of 10 per cent will be made in July and the balance In a year, and within thirty days a churn drill must be at work on the property and be kept at work until the sale becomes a. finality or the project is abandoned. This is a small deal compared to some mining: enterprises that require six or seven figures to talk about, but it means business in a way that indi cates more than some larger bargain!. The essence of it all is to develop the property, meanwhile giving the poor prospector and the buyer both a chance. If the mine isNvorth anything the pri'e paid for it will prove to be cheap, al though it will give the prospectors and locators big returns for their small investment and their patience. If it fails to make good, the buyers will not be out a great deal of money. In fact, they will begin work as soon as possi ble and by the time even the first pay ment is due they will either be more enthusiastic than today or they will have cold feet. In which case the pros pector will also have a better line on the property through the development work accomplished. For Benefit of £amp Tribolet says he Is not a mining man ' but a meat cutter. He sells beef and sells a lot of it in the Ray country, and he can only sell it when someone | is there to eat It. He believes, there ton, in encouraging the mining In dustry all he can. Trlbolet said he would take a chance with them, and for the last two years has financed the assessment work end of it and kept the thing moving. If it proves to be a mine his quarter interest i will have been easily acquired. If It does not, it will not be the first money he has lost, and the developing fea- , ture of the contract is more Important i than the payment feature, for by it he ( will be able to better tell whether it is worth spending any more money on It. A feature of the contract is that he may have a man on the ground at ' all times to see the" result of the ex ploration work of the churn drill. If the sale is finally consummated the four partners will receive ample re turn for their timo and money spent, and a fine profit beside, while the buy ers will probably have millions of dol lars' worth of ore In the ground. YUMA PLACER BEDS WILL BE REOPENED PRESCOTT, Ariz., Jan. 23.—Ed Shu mate and Herman Voge have returned from a trip to Cave creek in Yuma county, where they located five hun dred acres of placer ground for them selves and associates. The ground has proved rich in gold and the creek sands and wash arc adapted to the re covery of the yellow metal by tho dry washing process. Part of the ground was worked in a crude way many years ago by Mexicans, who abandoned the claims after exploiting in a small way, where bedrock is near the surface. Good values were panned by Mr. Shumate and Mr. Voge from various places on the locations, every pan showing colors. Charles Anderson and A. E. Scott, who are interested in tho ground and have been working there nearly six months, have made better than wages until the heavy storms made dry washing almost impossible. The property is located fifty-five miles by stage ride from Vicksburg, twenty-four miles southeast of Quartz ite. Mr. Shumate says that McEnteen Brothers are preparing to make a three-ton shipment of ore that samples $3000 to the ton in silver, gold and copper, from their recent rich strike ten miles southwest of Vicksburg. The great value of the ore was acci dentally discovered after more than a ton of it hnd been thrown over the dump, considered to be too low grado to ship. The ore is considered very peculiar by miners, many declaring it of little value at first sight. Mr. Shu mnte has samples of it. Machinery for a $30,000 placer mining plant has arrived in ■Vicksburg to be erected on placer mines ten miles southwest of Quartzite. The plant is intended to work the ground by the dry and wet processes. Tho company own ing the property will install a purap \}\g plant at a permanent water supply five miles distant from tho mines. TEMPLOR RANCH OIL BUILDS A RESERVOIR The Templor Ranch Oil company in building B large reservoir to hold oil until the pipo lino Is completed to that lease. All available tanks and reser voirs are full, and the new storage is made necessary by the constantly in creasing production of the wells al ready drilled. The California King Oil company has brought in, at a depth of 284 feet, Its flpst well on the property lately leased from the Templor Ranch Oil company. The well is not yet on the pump, but is believed to be good for 100 barrels a day. The gravity of the oil is about 17 and no water was encountered at any point in the drilling. Material la already on the ground for two more rigs, and drilling will start on one of them within a few days. The Dillon Oil compuny is drilling on its first well on land leased from the Templor Ranch Oil company, and will doubtless bring it in within a few days. David Shear, an oil producer and re finer of Oil City, Pa., has taken a lease from Miller & Lux on the northwest quarter of section SB-29-20, near the developed holdings of the Templor com pany, and has established camp pre paratory to drilling.

OIL LAND ADVANCES It is reported that a parcel of oil land just north of the Coalinga crude property has been sold for $1850 an acre, showing an appreciation in values in the district within the last month or so of $100. The entrance of the American Oil Fields company into the field has, it is said, boosted prices, and ■will con tinue to boost them. BERRY WILL RESUME M'KITTRICK, Jan. 25.—The C. J.
