MAGNIFICENT RETURNS Are Promised by Goldfield, as Hr. Gunn Sees It. Geo. E. Gunn, representing the Amer ican Smelting and Milling company of Utah, returning from Tonopah and Gold field last evening and sjieaks in glowiog terms of the two large camps. He owns considerable property in the new fields and is more than elated over the pros |K-cts of the mining country, says the State Journal. In a statement last evening, he said: “The mines at Tonopah are richer than they were before, but that the city of Tonopah will soon be eclipsed by the coming city of Goldfield. “ llie mines in Goldfield have a large amount of ore on the dumps and most of it will go as high as $3,00:) a ton in gold. Some of the ore from the dumbo goes as high as $30,000 a ton. “The railroad is now within eight miles of Tonopah and will be finished in a very short time. When the road is completed both of the camps will be greater than ( ever liefore as more men will be employed j aud many more mines will open up.” [The Journal rejwirter probably mis understood Mr. Gunn in one particular. The most of the ore on the dumps here won’t "go as high as$3 000 a ton.” There are large dumps of good ore here, but $3,000 per ton for the “most of it” is jmtting it out of the bounds of reason. - Editor News.] Bids Wanted.

The Florence is still producing high grade ore, as is the Combination, Jumbo and January. At two places in Diamondfield this week ore was uncovered. On the Daisy claim the assay ran $l,9.‘59.fll to the ton. On the Vernal No. 1 a strike of great importance was made and in the quartz could be seen great quantities of large gold stringers. On the Vermilyea lease on the Jumbo they are taking the loose dirt and putting it in coal oil cans and shipping it, Mr. Vermilyea had an assay made from a sample taken and the returns showed a value of over 82 Kf.O >0 to the ton ! A number of new leases were made on the Mohawks that lie between the Com- j bination ami the Red Top, and in a short time no doubt we will hear of rich ore being struck.
