Ambrose Burke came In this week from his camp in the Coronado moun- . tains, where be spent the winter, and still remains doing development work on his claims. He e.vpecU to at once commence orivlng a tunnel for the development of the Copper : I'la'e claims, which show rich ore on the surface. The urface will be driven in on the lead, and in ore all ; the way. A nd still the big sales go on at Bis-b-e. Another big company has been ! organized with a few million to de velop mines of the Warren district. During the )at two years more money in mining has come into that district thaa in all the rest oT the sou'.hwest. The beauty of it is ' hat it is "mining money"' put up by men who have faith in cities. It seems to be an eay matter to get monev for the Warren district. Wood Poland and Charley Nelson, who recently secured the assistance o' a number of business men in the devel opment of a valuable gold property in the (reeolee district, spent Tuesday in town layiog in supplies. They report that work has been progressing most satisfactorily on the property. The tun nel has now been driven in on the lead 135 feet. Good ore is shown all the distance, and the entire face of the tunnel is now in ore which they say will run 320 in gold and about 10 per cent copper. Work oa the tunnel is being continued. A. V.. Elliott, presiden, of Ilia New Fngland and Clifton Mining; company, (ieorge Davis, a director of the same company, B. Wilkins, a large stock holder, and A. A. Wyman, the com pany's solicitor, arrived last week from Biston. B. C. Burger, consult ing engineer for the company, arrived this week, to consult with the direc tors and map out plans for the further development of the company. Work under the Consolidated company has been progressing lively for some months past, but it is expected that this meeting of the directors with the engineer will be fruitful of much more rapid development in the imme diate future. Krnest L. Frye, one of the discov erers of the rich - gold claims' in Cold Hill district, spenta few days in town this week, and reports the district coming to the front with great strides. A considerable amount of work is now going on in the camp, and some very remarkable discoveries are being made. The rich ore is not confined to the original discoveries by any means, as is demonstrated by all work done. Crawford and Await now have five feet of ee which has an average value of jdOU per ton. If these values bold for any considerable depth they will soon have one of the big gold mines of the ten i lory. Other properties seem to be developing equally as well, and the chances are most favorable for a number of big mines. A mill will soon be one of the needs of the camp, which will be erected as soon as the development on the properties will justify. A. Lafave, who owns four claims at Cold Hill, the new gold camp near Metcalf, is spending a few days in town this week. He owns the north extension of the Lady Mary, which has recent ly made such a remarkable shoAing. On this claim he has cross cut the le.nl vvury twenty feet for 200 feet, and finds that the ore averages 4 feet in width and goes $20 in gold, and also carries some lead. He will drive a tunnel in on the lead fun her down the hill, mid if it shows up as well at. depth sis it does on the surface, he will arrange for the erection of a smill mill. He reports that in one day two men on the fady Mary took out 1.1 tons of ore which would average $.10 per ton, which is certainly making money fast enough. Mr. Lafave states that there is a sufficient amount of water in the camp :'or two small stamp mills, and that more can be de veloped. Mr. Lafave is a man of much experience, having prospected and worked in mines from the heart of Mexico to Nome, and he says that lie considers the new camp of Culd Hill us promising for the amount of work done us any he has ever sf.en. J. H. Lovering, an eminent en gineer of Los Angeles, is here on busi ness connected with the establishing of an immense dam on the Blue river about thirty-live miles from Clifton, from which point water will be piped to Clifton anj a central electrical plant established, which will not only supply the mot ive power for tbe Clif-lon-V orotic! district, but from which power can be conveyed by cable to other districts. Mr. Iovering re fused t'i discuss the project with a representative of the Era but from ojher sources it is learned that the people whom be represents have am ple means already arranged for to complete the enterprise, which will be one of the biggest of the kind in the western country. The fall from the location of the dam on the Blue to Clilton where the power plant will be located is more than 900 feet, and it is etiraated that the company will lie able to furnish 1,1,000 horse power. At the present time the comsumption of poer in the Cli'ton-M jrenci district would be only about 6000 horse power, the balance of which could be trasmit ted to other camps. In addition to the power furnished t'ue com pan j would be able to supply water for the entire district. The plans for the dam cills for a steel structure, which will be higher and stronger than tbe Tonto dam which is now being con structed by the government. Tbe pipe to convey the water from the res ervoir to Clifton will be the largest for it length in the world, and ill bring; into use both water and power It is understood that 1 the enterprise when completed will : cost about $2,000.000. A corps of en- gineers will arrive ic a few weeks to : - survey the water 6hed aod lay out the j pipeline, which vork will be done at j . t - I - v, f . f m 11 . V. n . 1. i now wojicu. - - - once. Tne is un iuí actual work of construction will be commenced on tbe enterprise within thirty days from tbe date of signing; contracts by the companies here for j the electrical power. It is stated that ; this new enterprise if put in operation ' would prove a great saviug to the com- j panies, a it would cheapen the cost of , power per horse power to Í7.1 per vear. I; is also slated that the elee- i tricitv could be used for tbe e.ec- trolytic process of refining copper, and inasmuch as the acid is already male inasiuuv.u ..... . here it would seem that w.th such a plant in operation the copper could be refilled here at a prout ni.teac ot oe ing tnt to Am'xiy.

CU PIUTE COPPER COMPANY. In this issue of the jFltA ,v.in oe j j. w. Sullivan, who owns a beauti foend the artcloXj!tWí!toraüon of , fu( f,iac.e on the Frisco al the mouth the Cuprite Copper company, which has been formed for the purpose of developing seventeen claims located near Metcalf. The claims are joined on the ca;t by. the properties of the Steve.is Copper company and on the south by the Santa liosa company's holdings. The claims ate cui by sev eral strong lodes, with gosson capping, and occasional strong blow outs of hematite iron. Considerable ore was taken from the surface workings which gave smelter returns of "0 per cent, copper. The ore also assays well in gold, much of it running as high as $10 per ton in that metal. The lodes can be opened by tunnels which will give a depth from the surface of 800 feet. The claims are well situated for economical working, being convenient to good wagon roads and fie railroad at Metcalf. It is expected thai a few months development work will put the property among t he regular sh ip- pers and as there is a ready market at Clifton for that class of ore, il is ex pected that the mines will be self-sus- taining.art-r a reasonable amount of , also r,. tie ,l);,iti,)n f national corn development work has been done.
