Hast of Kinta springs is Death canon, where is located the Kuckwell property, on which it . claimed a bin strike of galena ore had been made a few days ao. Not much was known of this discovery, dis-covery, hut a report was in circulation that at a depth of forty I VI a crosscut hud been run sixteen feet which was all in solid ore. A lot of samples were brought in and will ho submitted to an iissaver for deteriliilia- the mine! maintaining a Heady output.

Kverybody is waiting anxioualy for the Niagria to be bo started up under the new management and with its increased in-creased capitalization. When that is done if it does not produce a groat activity and interest in the old camp people will ho greatly mistaken. From the 1'erk Cltr Mlntr." The Silver King shaft is going down in good shape, no more trouble being experienced ou account of water. The hoard of directors of the Lucky Kill Mining company met yesterday, and levied another assessment of two cents per share. C. A-Stedefeldt, the inventor of tho Stedcfeldt furnacos, arrived in the i'ark thi week, ami will remain here during the erection of the Marsao re-linery. re-linery. K. C. (lunn, recorder of Uintah mining min-ing district, reports that hut few locations loca-tions are being made. Nearly all the ground around the I'ark is taken. Tho Woodside is running as usual but vet the vein has not been encountered. I he drilt toward the old works is being run and there will ho nothing but dead work until iho vein is tapped. The Anchor hoisting works are now completed and the engines are running. Iho rope aud cages were attached this week ami work in the shaft commenced. com-menced. Tho lirst work will he con-lined con-lined to taking out the pipes used in boring the vvdl hole and cleaning out the shaft. The water is going down very fast and it is thought that it will be all out in a short time so that sinking sink-ing can coinmenco. The lirs: shipment of first class ore from tho Anchor mine w ill be made in a day or so and thero is no doubt but that tiiey will continue. Toe oro was encountered this week in the plopes being be-ing worked from the drift running from the east incline. It caiiid in gradually but has opened out into a large body, the low grade base oro disappearing entirely. This first-class ore carries ?U ounces silver and 40 per cent lead about the same grade a the lirst-class ore of tho Daly and Ontario. The Crenennt. A local mining man who is on the inside in-side and posted on what the Crescent has done in the past and will do in the future, gives a few bits of information. Since tho mino was lion tomorrow. Wood It eer rroiloctioii. Wood river mines are producing more ore this summer than at any time for years past. The output is being made by mines in all of the districts com i prised in the Wood river country from Itelli-vii'i on the sou ill to S iwtooth ami t'lavlon on tha noilli. Tho most of uiese shipments are exceptionally high grade galena ores running well in lead and from 1 . () to VMM ounces in silver. None of the smeiters built years ago are in blast and most of the production goes to Denver and Omaha. M'nluif Kxchenifi.. There was one the bicgest crowds on the mining exchange this morning that has been seen for many a day. Nearly every seat was occupied. For some reason the peopin gave no inspiration to the brokers, for the business dragged painfully. Perhaps it was the heat or it may have been other reasons, but to whatever causes it may have been due, theie was very liltlu done. Apex is again coming into favor, and advaueed one-half it cent for cash delivery and cent buyer :!( days. Anchor was in demand at better prices, although none was sold. tne hundred shares of (ilen-coe (ilen-coe changed hands at 5.75- The total sales were NiOt) shares. Dalton was called for the first time today.

'I Ins informant said there had been a good deal of outlay on the mine but it was now in splendid shape, and was provided with almost everything necessary, ne-cessary, it had all tho machinery that would be wanted for some time, it had a tramway and concentrator and all of the water had been drained oil tho big tunnel. In addition to these things it had two large ore bodies, one of tho essentials to thu working of a big mine.

Miller, who makes a business of freighting between Dee)) Creek and Salt Lake, is now in tho city, lie is enthusiastic over recent developments in that Miction and declares that half the truth has not been told. He brought in samples from several of the properties that are near his place which is in the vicinity of Ihapah. Some of these specimens are from properties owned by William Dooley. Due is a lead veiii in which there is two feet of solid galena ruuuing IvM ounces per ton .ii ,-iiver. Another is a gold lead from six to eight feet in width, i Samples from this vein us high as $Ki'M in gold. Mr. Dooley has five or six tons of high grade ore piled up on his dump and Mr. Miller will bring in a load of it on his next trip. Other specimens brought hy Mr. Mil ler are from a ledge recently opened up by Hall and Johnson. They have stripped it for sixty feet in width, streaks of high grade ore appearing all across it. This ore is a copper stained 'luartz carrying gray copper. It runs v!."i) ounces silver with some gold. Other developments in the same local-j local-j it v are npial.y promising an. I people ! there expect to be able to furnish the j railroad a large tonnage when it shall ! be completed. I I'loftl" Sme.ttir. W. S. tiodbe when he returned from ' Pioche a few days ago, and before leaving leav-ing for San Francisco, told a friend j that the smelters w hich he was build-j build-j ing in Southern Nevada were nearly ! completed. Work has been pushed on ' them vigorously of late, and Mr. (iodhe ; will soon have an opportunity of seeing i the works which he has taken such a ! lively interest iu. sending daily consign ! merits to this city. It is expected that ', fiies will be started in tho furnaces , within the next two weeks, and that when they are onco blown iu they will j bo run continuously. There is no j question of their success as they are i built on the most modern principles I and have the very latest devices for the economic handling of ore. Work ou i the railroad to connect Pioche with several sev-eral of the leading mines is being prosecuted prose-cuted with considerable speed, but the line will not be finished for some week. Loeel and Oalmrttl. More than H''0 tons of ore wer ship-i ship-i prd from Park City last week. I A hoisting plant has been sent to ! Jerry Richardson at Park City, i Some extraordinarily rich ore is being be-ing taken from the Heck 400 level. There is more than enough work at Bingham for another concentrator of large capacity.

The new camp of Crede in Cnloradc i is bhi'Wiiig up hotter than it was at tirst j Itlin-ham'n Mummer Keenrd. I There arc several Biughaiu miners in ', the city at this time attending a trial in ! whe Third district court, which involves the title to some mining property in ; that camp. All of these men say that ' wit:i the exception of one eeason that : being when the Oid Telegraph had its mit iier running at Kingham Junction, ! there was never a lime wiicu the camp t as producing so many tons of ore. In : vhe big season spoken of, times were not near so gootl a they are now. Then most of the production came from one mine, wtu.e now there are half a hund-real hund-real contributors, to swell tne general , output. Much of the shipments come jfioiii leases till which a large i number of men are doing exceedingly well. This puts the money in a tiiiiiilier of hands aud creates the best ol times. There are a good many mines doing well that are ! not often heard of. ; The Tiewaukee has become a steadv ! producer and a large shipper and is i looked upon as one of the best proper-1 proper-1 lies iu tiie district.
