6 NEWS OF THE MINES AND OIL FIELDS UNION RUSHES WORK ON ITS SAN PEDRO DOCKS Oil Company Invests Large Sum in Harbor Facilities for Coast Trade Regardless of the troublesome gush ers and extensive field work and de velopment tie Union (in company U not neglecting improvements on the coast tor shipping purposes. A large sum of money is being sunk in the Outer Harbor and Stock company at Shu Pedro in making ample provision tor a Beet of twentj vessels owned by the company. A valuable terminal site at SeatUe has just been acquired, and the work on the hdldlnga of the company in Los Angeles harbor is being pushed rapidly. The piling- for the bulkhead along the east channel on the Minor fill la now practically .all down, ami the rock work for the same is about halt com pleted. This bulkhead la *800 feel long, and will add the first deep-water frontage to the assets of the harbor. The work of putting dowfi the con crete piles for the wharf along the channel is keeping pare with the dredging of the channel to thirty*flve feet. When completed the wharf will be one of the most substantial and up-to-date on the coast. Reinforced concrete piles only are being used, and there will be no expensive mainten ance on account of the ravage* of the pile worm, as In the case of wooden piles. These piles are forty-seven feet long and taper from twenty inches in diameter at the bottom to fourteen inches at the top. They are reinforced with nine seven-eighths-inch Iron rods. The piles are put down by means- of a hydraulic jet and light tapping with a pile driver. Tho wharf is about half completed. The big dredger Pacific is half way out from the shore on the first cut in the two-mile channel to the thirty five-foot contour that will bring deep water to tha wharves. To furnish power for the dredging operations the North American Dredg ing company recently made a contract with the Southern California Edison company which makes it the second largest individual consumer of electric "juice" in the southern section of tho state. The contract calls for a minimum expenditure for power of $45,000 within three years. Anticipating a permanent demand for power at the harbor, the electric company has built a new per manent power line to bring the current from Inglewood station. It is expected that the east channel and wharves on the Minor concession will be completed some time during the coming fall, nnd that before the new year deep-water vessels will be dock ing in the outer harbor. On Ihe outer end of the concession the city has reserved 1000 feet along the bulkhead line. As the pierhead line extends 10n0 feet beyond the bulk head line, it is possible to build two slips on the frontage of the city, which will add much to the available frontage for municipal docks. SALT LAKE ROAD READY FOR ITS THROUGH TRAINS Full transcontinental train service will he resumed on the Salt Lake routo next Tuesday. Tn December the road was seriously damaged by washouts and storms and through service w;ts abandoned. Officials of the company are now arranging time tables and making other preparations and all trains will be run through on and after Tuesday. With the resumption of the service the Salt Lake Limited will again be operated between Los Angeles and Chicago. Its equipment will be per fect in every respect. A faster sched ule than was used before the washouts will be maintained. The eastbound trip will be shortened by half an hour and the westbound by three and one half hours. No. 8, the eastbound train, will leave Los Angeles at 10 o'clock each morn ing and take 71% hours for the trip. No. 7, the westbound'traln. will arrive at Los Angeles at 4 o'clock in the afternoon, having taken 68V& hours for its journey from Chicago.

Only the- lines have been drilled, and the. new owners will probably drill up the remainder of the area, besides getting the drilled wells up to a maximum production. Capt- John Barneson was the principal owner of the Wabash. The British Consolidated has start ed a system of numbering the different properties, and they will be known by the folowing number?. The Dia mond will he No. 1; the Monarch, on section 26, No. 2; and P. M. D. & 0., No. 3, and the "Wabash will be No. 4. The New Era property will bo includ ed with the P. M. D. & O.

JAMES WYNKOOP EASTERN CAPITALISTS MAY BUY IRON MINES Money Is Ready to Finance Smel ter if Investigations Are Satisfactory BAKERSFIELD, June B.—Several New York capitalists are having an investigation made of the possibilities of mining iron ore from the deposits in the ban Kmldio mountains. What is specifically wanted now is definite information as to whether iron is present in suticient quantities* to warrant the installation of smelt ers, and whether the ore is reasonably accessible for transportation. W X. Peck of the home seeker's de partment of the Peck-Judah company liis started preliminary inquiries In behalf of the New York capital, and Se< retary Burke of the board of trade lias undertaken to put these people in correspondence with those here who have the best knowledge on the sub ject. It Is positively stated that. money for preliminary surveys, prospecting and assays will be forthcoming as soon as it is established that the main body of the ore is within commercial reach. AMERICANS FLOCK TO UPPER YAQUI COUNTRY MEXICO CITY, June 7^-The north ern Sonora country on the upper Yaqul river is at present enjoying a boom which bids well toward rivaling the early days of the Comstock and Crip ple Creek. Advices from El Paso, Douglas, Naco and other border towns show that a large number of firospectors and min ing men are moving into this country and the lines at the doors of the mm* ing agencies are lengthening daily, de nouncements and placer claims are being staked and applied for through out this country. That It Is one of the most generally mineralized sections of the republic is without a doubt. Gold, silver, copper and lead are all to be found In paying quantities and some of the best producers have been and are at present worked In this sec tion. The. railroad construction that at present is going on will give an in creased incentive to' the mineral de velopment of the region and the next few years, from present indications, will In all probability show it to be a j fair rival of the Guanapunto and Hi- j dalgo districts in point of production and dividends. STANDARD STRIKES OIL IN BITTERWATER VALLEY SALINAS, June 7.— The reported strike of oil at the Standard well in the upper portion of the Bltterwater valley, about fifteen miles from King City, has been confirmed. The well is now said to be yielding twenty-five barrels of 21 gravity oil daily. It is down 1700 feet, 1 1100 of which Is In oil sand, the thickest body of that ma terial ever struck In this state. The drillers have not yet gone through the Mind. As a result of this strike there la a renewal of Interest in the devel opment of the country. Tho Standard's rotary- man visited the well this week nnd it is reported will Boon install a rotary rip and sink the well deeper in the hope of striking a bigger flow. The strike is hut seven miles from the well recently abandoned by the Salinas Oil company, which has been taken over by the new Monterey-San K.'iiito company. This company will resume operations on the old well next week. While some of the companies are moving out, others are moving in, and important news will probably be , Ived from the Loneoak district In the ii"t distant future. NOGALES PARTNERS TAKE OUT $120 ORE NOOALTCS, Juno O. —A. L.

Advices from Patagonia are that in the Black mine of the Mansfield Min inp company Important development uncovered a fine body.of ore from which there la coming rock running high in gold and copper. SHERMAN LAYS OFF MEN Sixty-seven men have boon laid off in the Sherman oil di.-trict for lack of work to keep them employed. It Is believed by some of the most experienced workers that the recent seismic disturbances are responsible for the failure of several wells in diverting the flow of oil. while in the' case of others it is said to be held that the shock loosened the casing so that it became disconnected, and thus put the wells out of action. . The men were employed in and around Sherman, and were generally engaged .aw pumpers and workers at the wells. PRODUCES 2000 BARRELS COALINGA, June B.—W. K.

UNION OFFICIALS FIND PIPE LINE SYSTEM IN EXCELLENT CONDITION After traveling the entire distance of the Producers' Transportation pipe line system, Lyman Stewart and Rob ert Watchorn of the Union Oil com pany returned to Los Angeles yester day. They report the system in first class condition. • Messrs. Stewart and Watchorn saw the Lakeview gusher, which continues to pour forth oil steadily at the rate of 50.000 barrels a day, and which Mr. Watchorn epitomizes as a "magnificent, wonderful si^ht." The immense tank which was built around the tup of the well will be made higher. Jt is thirty feet high and abput 300 feet square, but the great weight of the oil which It contains does not prevent tho sending of oil abovo the top of tho tank and over the sides by the terrific pressure from the. well. LOOKS AS IF OIL FIELDS * WILL GET PASSIBLE ROADS RAKERSFIELD, Cal.. June 9.—Next Saturday a most important gathering of oil operators and county and city officials will be held at Maricopa and Moron to consider raising funds for a petrollthlc road between the '*>?y nnrl the West Side oil fields. A first-class highway for the present heavy traffic between these points is imperative, and with the many oil Interests ready to subscribe from $30,000 to $40,000 the success of the project seems assured. The news will be hailed with delight by all automobile owners who frequent this section, for the roads at present are in frightful condition. .

MALE-M'LEOD BREAKS LOOSE A SECOND TIME Well in Midway Field Flows One Thousand Barrels in an Hour's Time The Hale-McLeod well on the south west quarter section of 6-32-23 In the Midway field has broken loose again ami it reported to be flowing at the rate of 1000 barrels an hour. The workmen hnd succeeded in fishing out their tools which were lost at the time the gusher first came in, and had driven the cas ing down and were drilling with a lighter string of tools when the second Bow began. The flow lasted only a short time before the well sanded. It is said there are about 200 feet of sand in the hole. The tools were not lost this time. The pressure of gas is tremen dous and oil is being forced up out side of tjie eight-inch casing clear to the surface. At about the same time the drillersj on Midway Five lease, just north of the Hale-MeLeod property, encountered a pressure of gas which caused the drillers t.> abandon their tools. This well is down 1000 feet and is just in the tar sands. It is being cased with 12M>7lnch pipe in anticipation of a gusher like the Hale-McLeod ana St. Lawrence adjoining. An offer was made to option the Mid way Five property on behalf of English capital by H/M. Rumball. who visited the property last week. The managers Bay tiny refused the offer and have withdraw the stock from the market. JADE IN ALASKA Eskimos of northern Alaska for ages have made axes and ornaments of a green jade, which upon examination by experts has been pronounced equal to any found in China and Japan. The Eskimos say that a whole moun tain at the headwaters of the Kobuk river, In the Arctic circle, is composed of this jade. As jade occurs only in thin veins, it is believed that a jade reef, broken up by the erosion of a hillside, has been scattered as float over a large area, making the natives believe the green stone is the prevail ing rock. Dr. Philip S. Smith and R 11. Eakin of the United States geologi cal survey have gone to Alaska in an effort to solve the jade problem.
