The first large mill was the Lincoln, erected in 1846 and This company, besides operating Tully’s machine enployed 400 woman in hand- spinning and weaving. This business was carried on by this company but a few years. The first Lewiston manufacturing corporation was chartered in 1846.— Lewiston (Me.) Journal. —_= Park City Mining News. The Woodside is working eighteea men at present; the force will be increased asthe work demands. They are on an 80 foot incline, at the bottom of which the vein is about 8 feet in width, which seems to widen as they go down. The indications!are better than A whip was putup a few days ago in ever. place of the old whimm which will materially assist the rapid development of the property. The first shipment from this mine was 50 tons, which averaged $65 per ton above royalty and expenses, with lead at 5.05. The second lot of 60 tons went $62 per ton, with lead at 5.04. The last shipment was 100 tons at $49 per ton,lead had then fallen to 3.85 which caused a loss of over $1,000.

It is both milling and smelting ore. Over $35,000 has been expended on this group. On reaching the 400 foot level work was discontinued owing to water, and the owners were not able to put in expensive machinery necessary to the further development of the mines. It will not be a great while before they. resume operations on a more extensive scale, as Mr. Farish is one of the lessees of the Woodside, and if, as it undoubtedly will, the lease nets him as much per month as it has since August, the West Ontario will become as famous a producer as the Ontario and Daly mines are at present. THE Ontario and Daly are the two principal mines of the district, of wich we will givea description in a succeeding issue. Tse Whitehead group, owned by Whitehead, Slagle and Snyder, is bonded to John Lenzi for $18,000 for one year, and he is to do 40 day’s work per month. Thisis an excellent prospect. Tue West End group have a 70 foot tunnel following the vein. A contract will be let ina few days for 100 feet. An assay of their ore went $2.25 in gold and 5 ozs. in silver. Berry & BREMAN own several claims adjoining theWest Ontario on the south, which, from present indications, seem to show a valuable property; but little more than assessment work has been done, yet the owners are confident that they have a bonanza in view. ANOTHER group owned by Ex. U. S. Marshal Shaughnessy, called the Glencoe, situated on the east side of the Daly, has worked to the 600 foot tunnel in paying ore from the surface, but owing to a law suit regarding back payments the property has not been worked for several years ;it is really too bad that such is the case, as it would make a vast difference in the production of wealth in Summit county if this mine was in operation. Tue Crescent ranks next to the Daly as a producer. The company have underground workings to the extent of sevenmiles. In the mine, mill and tramway they employ 125 men. Their average output is 80 tons per diem of second class ore.- They ship from 150 to 200 tons of first class ore every month. Their concentrating mill is generally in operation from May to December. The mine is about four miles from Park City, in the Uintah district, and is reached by a tramway which extends to the depot of the Union Pacific Park City branch. |
