Guffey & Galey A for the Mining correspondent World writing from Nevada, says: The Tonopah district is passing through a period of quiet, many mines having suspended work until the completion of the railroad, with which satisfactory progress is being made. The shaft of the Mon tuna Tonopah is now down 736 feet and development on the 500 and levels have yielded fair qualities of high, grade shipping ore and a big tonnage of milling ore has been blocked out and is also accumulating on the dumps. The Tonopah Belmont Development company is directing its energies to the development of the level, where in the north crosscut from the east drift a body of ore has been encountered, but its width and extent has not .been determined, the assay values runping from $26 to $130 per ton. This is the fourth vein discovered In this property, a trial shipment from which yielded 151 ounces silver and 1.9 ounces gold per ton. The North Star is opened up In a most satisfactory manner and the recent connection of its level with the Montana has by increased ventilation much facilitated the working of both properties. The North Star is blocking out large quantities of milling ore besides raising high grade ore which will be shipped at an early date. The Tonopah Extension mine is rapidly developing into one of the bigThe gest properties in the camp. crosscut on the level has demonstrated that the vein at this depth is 40 feet wide, of which 30 feet assay from $10 to $12 per ton, seven feet $54 per ton, and the remainder from $300 to $3,000 per ton. This body is now being drifted on and about three car loads of high grade ore have been taken out during development and will be shipped at once. Another crosscut is now being run to the vein from the level and the sinknow down 400 main of the shaft ing feet is also being continued. The property is controled by Chas. M.

Those in a position to know are very reticent about giving out Information, but do not deny that sensational developments have been made since the work of prospecting was begun some time ago. On the 1,200 level some fine looking ore carrying big values in copper and gold was taken out, and though from latest accounts this has given out, considerable of It has been stored In the mill ore bins. On the 1,400 level also a drift of ore has been run through for 150 feet and shows up big. The ore is a brown carbonate carrying high values. The reports regarding the condition of the mine arq certainly encouraging. b EMPIRE STATE CO. DEFEATED. A dispatch from Washington says: The sensational mining suit against o the Empire Mining and Development company and Charles Sweeney and F. Lewis Clark of Spokane, was settled today in favor of Kennedy Hanley by Chief Justice Fuller of the United States supreme court Justice Fuller refused to give the Empire State a chance to reopen the case and refused the writ of certiorari for which they had applied. The decision settles the case in favor of Hanley, who receives one eighth of the value of the ore taken from the Skookum claim In the Couer d'Alenes of Idaho, not deducting the cost of taking out of the ores, which must be sustained by the Empire State company.
