Woodward has Just returned where he says he has succeeded In purchasing eleven copper claima for the Western Zinc Mining r, company, which Is operating near Nev. The new claims, he says, carry a gray copper in which there are as high as twenty ounces in silver to tho ton. The outcropplngs, he says, are as good as "thoeo on the Polar Star when work was first started. About two years ago Mr. Woodward and associates took a bond and lease on five claims of the Polar Star and organized the Clover Mining company. This company also acquired title to The company eight more claims. started mining the ore, but when the price of spelter went up the company began mining rich zinc ores. Later the "Clover sold its property to the Nevada Zinc Mining company for 3SS.000 shares of stock. This was sold to pay the old company's Indebtedness and what was left over was given as a stock dividend to the shareholders. This still left a good treasury. Mr. Woodward says that after the recent purchase there Is still a Block of Mr. 100,000 shares in the treasurs. Woodward has been helping his son. Woodward, superintendent of Spencer out some of the Nevada Zinc, trace the ore bodies which. In his opinion, are some of the largest and richest that have ever been found In, the state.

The report of operations for the year ending April 30, 1916. has Just been sent out by the Consolidated Copper-mine- s and shows that the company's affairs are In a satisfactory condition. During the year the company produced 81,303 tons of ore from which was recovered 1,646,502 pounds of copper, C36 ounces of gold and 1445 ounces of silver. The total gross Income from the sales of bullion was $356,318.45. Duringof the past twelve, months 9817 shares Giroux Consolidated Mines stock was exchanged for stock of the Consolidated Coppermlnes company, thus giving the latter ownership of approximately 94 per cent of the Giroux company. Dilling was continued through the of totallv and year and the reserves ore were substandeveloped partially and now stand at tially Increased tons of 1.141 per cent The report of the treasurercopper. shows that the deficit of the Giroux Consolidated company was reduced this la considered an excellent showing, and it la believed that bv the end of another fiscal year Consolidated may show a Coppermine The company's balance profit. sheet as of December 31, 1915. is as follows: Anfets.

D. Smith, foreman at the mine, which is in the Rye Patch coune try in Nevada, another vein of ore has been opened op on the intermediate level, about forty feet south of th first strike. Thii vein, it is declared, shows & good sprinkling of chlorides and bromides of silver In ore that Is of a shipping grade. It is declared that this new vein has already been opened up for forty feet alons th e strike and from It 200 sacks of ore have been extracted. This was sorted out as the development advanced, while the. other ore in the vein, it is declared, is of a shipping" grade. It was also announced that the company is nbeginning to sink on the largf on the lower tunnel level. sulphide-veiThis vein as it has been opened is declared to b twenty feet wide and has been drifted on for a distance of 120 feet. Thus far this has all been shipore. The winze is being sunk ping to open up the second bedding where it is believed the ore will plane, make as war as on the tunnel level. This bedding. It is expected, will be encountered within the next fifty feet. Miners are now working in three places on ore which is being sampled and measured up. This is ore, which will be treated by a mill. it Is declared it has been deAlready termined that in the mifle and in the there are n200,000 tons of milling dumps ore. With a mill it is asserted that there is sufficient tonnage to keep a plant going for five years. Experiments have been made on the ore and are being continued for the purpose of further determining the best process for treatment-- It has been decided that a flotation practically is best adapted to care for the plant ore and the officials say that within the next ninety days a mill will be Eureka, Aug. 26. With the past week of heavy shipments the month of August is coming to a successful and prosperous close in regpards to the mining district.

It is declared that the trustee will provide for the payment and will be backed by a guarantee of the company in a form which will allowr this moth" od of caring for the matter. It is declared that it will probably lie necessary to levy three assessments to clean up the affairs of the company. Inasmuch 21as there will be two cents each, it is assessments of the third assessment will that probable be 2 cents or less.

PROPERTY from Nevada, With the close of the market yesterday local brokers finished up another dull week of business, which at times a rethough looked quite promising ofsecurivival in activities. Some of the ties close theweek with an encouraging outlook, Aswhile others were not as a whole the market as fortunate. far as prices are concerned looked better than it has for several weeks, but the lack of orders on both sides has held things back. The stocks that ha,ve been declining for some time can place the cause as due to their inactivity. The market has fallen back through its own With the advancing price of weight. metals and the increased again demand for especially copper stocks there should be a revival, but this, it is not believed, will come until the smelters allow the shipper more encouragement For the past by taking more ore. has been an embargo there days ninety on shipments from the heaviest proto ducers, which has held them down no dividend requirements .and Just more. The raising of this embargo would Increase activities in stock, it Is believed. At the closing session of the exSells and New Quin-c- y change were yesterday the features of the market, and were the most heavily traded in. From 24 ceofH New Quincy slipped down to 22i cents. The most heavily traded in stock was Sells, which showed sales of 22,300 shares during the session at 8 to 10 cents. This to some extent was due to the directors deciding that only a 2 cent assessment could be levied. assessment For that reason the was rescinded. Alta Consolidated held up strong at Jlowell was unchanged 25J cents. around 20 cents and Lower Mammoth remained at 4 cents. It Is probable that an announcement will be made relative to Lower Mammoth in a few days that will strengthen up this stock. Sales yesterday totaled 66,117 shares, valued at $9854.40.
