Show put in plaoe as fast as it arrives and the prospects for the plant. to be'run-nlng be'run-nlng at full capacity' at an early date are brighter than at any time since the fire occurred. The local smelters report conditions unchanged and while every effort Is being be-ing made to keep the full force employed, em-ployed, it is acknowledged that the fuel situation works a hardship, in that the usual amount of ore cannot be treated. The Eastern supply of coke cannot be used as effectually as the supply that has been coming from SunnysidLe for the lead furnace, though in the copper fur-naca fur-naca it fires more satisfactorily. One o? the principal reasons assigned' for the curtailment of the product from some of the camps is that there is an over-supply of eilicious ores and until this grade of stuff has been reduced at both this point and the coast, the buying buy-ing orders for a high-grade value of silica wUl be limited. WILL SINK THE SHAFT ON THE SOUTH EUREKA. Another of the old properties of the Tintlc district is to resume operations la the near future, the announcement being made that the shaft on the South Eureka la to be dropped down from the 600-foot level to 1000 feet. This property adjoina the Centennlal-Eureka ground. While the management encountered ome small streaks of ore that resembled resem-bled the large bodies of high-grade stuff that was taken from the old Blue Rock ground, it has been since demonstrated that at depth the same grade of stuff appears In large bodies. It Is now the Intention of the company com-pany to drive down and catch the larger veins, where it seems to be practically certain that the ore will be found in paying quantities. r VJ v, - p.-..

DECREASE IS SHOWN, Settlements for ore and bullion last week aggregated $449,300 and showed a decrease over the previous week of $20,000. The falling off In the settlements settle-ments of the product of the mines that market their output at thin point is attributed at-tributed to the enforced reduction of the handling of metals by the local smelters, owing to the s-iarcity of coke which will be a serious hankies p for at least another month. Saturday's' settlements set-tlements amounted to $04 000. divided as follows: Silver, lead, copper and gold otes, $47,300; base bullion. $46,700. ORE SHIPMENTS.

The Godiva is one of the several piopertizs in the Tintlc district that W accumulated an immense tonnage of low-grade ores in the development of the ground and the extraction of the Mh-grade stnff that has been sent di-iect di-iect to the smeiters for treatment. Now the owners have conceived the idea of ettlng the values out of ore that has acciiiuuluicd on the iVizr.pa and In tiie workings i,f th property until it h. tx-conv- ii menace in &Kizg at the . higher grade rv.
