Under the supervision of Grant Snder, enormous enor-mous dlscolsures have been revealed, according to Mr. Jones, and while the ores are of low grade, the owners have experienced no difficulty In detecting the presence of a fortune. It is understood under-stood that they will heghi the erection of equipment with which to reduce these ores before the closo of tho year. Over at the Bully J rill, owned by Capt. DeLamar and managed by Hartwig A. Cohen of this city, tho output of copper, cop-per, gold and silver-bearing bullion continues con-tinues as steadily as does It from the reduction works of the Copper Mountain. Moun-tain. Mr. Cohen has shown himself as capable In the development of this proposition as he did in the development develop-ment of the Golden Gate at Mercur, and not a day but he Is adding to the contents of the Captain's exchequer. |
