The Northern Light. Tho litigation which the Northern Light has hail pending for sonio time with the Monator, is now most happily about to be settled, tho conflicting claimants wisely coming to the conclusion con-clusion that their properties would probably be tied up in the courts for several years before their rights were adjudicated, ami they thought it would pay them better to compromise and spend the money in (ievelopmfnt, rather than law. Tho Norsheru Light is at present working a force of fifteen men, with whom they are mining and marketing lot) tons of oro a month. As soon as the weather settles a small hoist of sutlicient power to sink 700 or WJ0 feet, will be placed on the property and its output increased, Tho oro that has been shipped recently has averaged from 80 to 100 ounces in silver, but it is rather dry in lead. A much higher grade could be shipped if the management manage-ment thought it desirable to separate it into first and soccud class, but they have not deemed it prolilablo. A Uincovery Near Draper. A. J. Froiseth and his associates are well pleased in their developments on the Porcupine claim five miles north of Draper. They have a well defined contact con-tact vein between lime ami quai tzite, on which they have run a tunnel thirty-five thirty-five feet, in the face of these is a streak of ore about six inches wide, which gives good assays in gold and silver. They are so well pleased with their prospects that they intend continuing developments. Mining Machinery. New machinery was sent out yesterday yester-day by tho Utah & Montana Machinery company to the following places: A new hoister of small w parity to the Anchor at Park City, a portion of the machinery for tho new Rice it McCrys-tal McCrys-tal sampler at Kureka, a whim each for the Albany consolidated and the Alamo shafts in Tintic and two more whims for other places in the territory. Mineral Itleiitioniiig-ii. A part of tho upper workings of the Apex have been leased to Barkow, Flint and Mosby. There is talk of organizing a mining exchange at Aspen, Colo. What is the matter with Denver? A gentleman recently from Colorado says: "The Mollie Gibson is one of the wonders of a wonderful country. Work on the wagon road to tho Y'ork mine at Bingham has been suspended on account of the storms. No oro was shipped last week. 'The new shaft on tho Daly has reached a depth of loO feet and the third compartment has been put iu. The ground is still soft. Those who have investigated the merits of the strike of ore in the Y'ork-ville Y'ork-ville tutinell, north of Kureka. describe it as a most promising discovery. Sam Nelson, a prominent Tintic mining min-ing man is a visitor to Salt Lake. Mr. Nelson is a very old timer in that district dis-trict aud has much valuable property. It is believed that when tho next election of tho oflieers of the ISig Hole Placer company is held in a day or two the old board of directors will bo reelected. re-elected. A very encouraging discovery of ore has been made nearly four miles north of hureka by John Davis, lie only had to sink live feet before the mineral was discovered. The public sentiment at Aspen is much opposed to the big mining deal at that place, which has been mentioned in tho dispatches of the last few days as a strong possibility, tho people there believing it would make a big monopoly monop-oly both of mining and business. |
