Show SILVER ISLAND IS IMPROVING STEADILY Vein Apparently Enters Bedded Plane and Ore Deposits Improve. A, letter received Saturday from T. K. Pratt, secretary of tho Silver Island Coalition company, who is now at the property iu tho Silver Islund district, is lo the effect that at the cxtremo south end of tho Emancipator vein, practically practical-ly at the base of the mountain, an encouraging en-couraging deposit of carbonate and galena ga-lena ore has been encountered. Tho vein at this point also apparently enters a bodded plane, arid if such proves to be tho enso. those familiar with Iho property believe they havo a mine of immense resources. The latest tunnel workings, when continued to greater length will give a vertical depth of about 500 feel under the apex of tho ore body which lias boon followed dowu tho mountain sidy in the scries of successive suc-cessive workings. Tho ore in the stope which is being developed on the property held bv the company under bond, is holding out well, and has improved iu quality, it is said, until it is as rich as any yet found. About two tons of oro ner day are now being taken out of this on'o place, though it was slated al the offices of-fices of the company yesterday that the working force at the mine would be increased in-creased by six men at once, and thut production will be almost doubled. The hauling of the shipment from the mine to Wcndover, the shipping point, is still under way. It is. stated, also, that a chute is being built from tho lower tunnel tun-nel workings on the bonded property, a distance of 200 feet lo the ore trail, so that production from these workings may also be started.
