SAN ANDREAS MIINES Are Being Actively Developed. BIG RETURNS EXPECTED. A District Rich in Quartz Leads, Gravel Banks and Placers. EASTERN MEN AND CAPITAL. Opportunities Are Abundant for Investment With a Certalnty of Profit. [Special Correspondence of THE CALL.] SAN ANDREAS, Car.,, Oct. 13.—Al- though there is no big producing mine in the immediate vicinity of San Andreas, the surface indications are very favorable, and the numerous shafts being sunk on pay chutes are sure to develop some good mines in the near future. During the past year numerous properties have been bonded by San Francisco and Eastern people, and in some of them work is being prosecuted in good faith. Complaint is made that many of the bonds were secured simply for speculative purposes, and prop- erty lockea up that otherwise might have have found legitimate purchasers. This evil is common to all districts attracting unusual attention, and can be remedied only by care in ascertaining the character and backing of the middlemen who are acting as promoters. Exvkrience has proved in mining as in most other enter- prises that middlemen are a necessity, and when they are of the right kind and are satisfied with a fair profit on their deals, they are a benefit to the community at large. Itis in cases where they secure a bond for a nominal sum and then demand an exorbitant advance from purchasers that they become a curse. The evidences of former great wealth are to be seen on every hand at San Andreas and for many miles around. All the gulches bave been washed for placer gold, the hillsides sluiced for placer quartz, and three old river channels opened up and tunneled underneath the entire length of the townsite. Buta short distance away extensive hydraulicking has been carried on at numerous places, and even yet there is some of that kind of mining where the local conformation is such that no damage 1its from the deposition of the debris. h cement gravel channels ar i n to exist in numerous place lly at Central Hill, where numerous 1d channels converge. The property there o subdivided that it would hardly paya single owner to construct a_bedrock drain or erect an expensive pumping plant, but a consolidation of the various interests conld easilv be effected and a very valuable property secured. This is one of the most inviting opportunities in this immediate locaiity. The last work done there on a channel running under the hill was im- mensely profitable, but there was no drain- age and the hoist and mill finally burned down and the ground remaining unworked belonging to the company owning the .plant, would not justify new works. »:In quartz mining all the inducements exist which may be found in tire most fav- ored regions of the mother lode. Alon; the east of the belt, at the Ford mine and other places, an immense vein of low-grade ore is known to exist, with fine walls, gouge, sulphurets and everything to indi- cate that at depth valuable bonanzas will be found. bodies of stratified vein material iden cal with those at Angels in zeneral charac- ter, and which will pay to mill. Depth here will probably concentrate these stringers into a solid and permanent vein. On the footwall or west vein at the Illinois mine and elsewhere, the prospects are so favorable that it is reasonable to hope for another Kennedy or Gwin mine being de- veloped.. Following isa summary of the most important mines contiguous to San Andreas.all of which have been personally inspected by the writer: Coming into San Andreas from Valley Springs, at the junction of the north branch of the Calaveras River with Mur- ray Creek, about a mile north of town, the observing stranger will notice a big white dump on the extreme point of a high hill, and will naturally inquire “What mine is that?” Probably the men who sank the shaft and created the dump had no idea of the value or meaning of a standing adyer- tisement, but builded better than they knew. The result at any rate is that few people come and go from San Andreas without having seen or heard of the Gott- schalk quartz mine. Judge C. V. Gottschalk has owned this mine for more than twenty years, but never worked it more than to sink a 100- foot shait and secure a patent for the ground. The old shaft showed a good vein and good ore from top to bottom, holding out every encouragement to con. tinue work and develop a mine, but prob- ably the water level, the old bugaboo which frightened the pioneer prospectors in quartz, was sufficient in this case also to discourage a continuance of work. ‘When the revival in quartz mining finally began to ‘affeci even sleepy San Andreas a year or so ago, the Gottschalk mine was one of the first secured by East- ern capitalists and work was begun and prosecuted vigorously on a new shaft, which was sunk 190 feet, and the big white dump is a monument to the good judg- ment of those who had a bond on the mine, for it is all composed of pay ore; or ivis a monument to their folly, for they couldn’t keep what they had found. The men with money for some reason failed to come forward at the expirati bond and the work done all reverted to the benefit of the owner of the mine, The new shaft was sank between 500 and 600 feet from the old, and as there is a strong vein at the bottom of both shafts of pay ore, and pay ore from the grassroots down in both shalts, and as the vein is larger and richer at the bottom of both shaits than on the surface, the prob- abilities of a good mine seem very flatter. ing. A continuation of the old shaft down to the 200 level and a drift connecting the two shafts at that level would prove whether the intervening ground is all a part of the pay chute. Should such be the case a permanent paying mine would seem 10 be assured. Several years ago Judge Gottschalk sent some of the ore from the old dump to San Krancisco and had a mill test made of it, and it went $4 90 per ton in free gold and 60cents in silver. . The ore from the new shaft is of a better grade, and the Judge thinks all the ore taken from both shafts will average at least $6 per tonin free gold, In order to secure a good mill site and frontage on the river twenty-four acres of patented land has been purchased and added to the claim, making forty-five acres in the patented mining claim. The loca- tion is very favorable for tunneling from the river, and water and power can readily be secured. The new shaft is a finely tim- bered three-compartment sbaft. and, al- though no work has been done since July 1, there is but about twenty feet of water in it. The Spring Gulch Mining Company is a close corporation, composed principally of Oakland men. George . L. Nusbaumer, County Surveyor of Alameda County for twenty years, is president; A. M. Benham, P On the middle lode are great | vice-president; Captain W. R. Thomas, secretary ; S. White, general manager and superintendent., The directorate in- cludes the above officers and George Bar beck and J. 8. Inglis. W. H. Bailey and L.'W. Forsting, capitalists, are also among the principal shareholders. Their princi- pal claim 1s known as the Edna mine. The claim of this company comprises 160 acres of land about two miles north of San Andreas, and the superintendent claims that at least two of the main mother lode veins run diagonally through the ranch. There is also a gravel channel not entirely worked out. 1t was while hydraulicking in Spring Gulch that Mr. White became impressed with the idea that there was a quartz mine on the place. He noticed that along the east side of the gulch nearly all the gold was bright, sharp quartz gold, while on the west side it was round and smooth channel gold. Tracing the quartz gold to the sum- mit of the hill, Mr. White was rewarded by finding indications of a big ledge, and further exploration satisfied him that he bad found the top of a chimney of pay ore on one of the main veins of the mother lode. Two prospecting tunnels were run into the hill from opposite sides. That on the west side is ninety-four feet from the sur- face and sixty fect long, all in decomposed quartz. The tunnel on’ the east side is 134 feet long, and the last forty feet run through o sort of rotten porphyry full of small quartz stringers, the entire mass veraging about $7 per ton. A winze was nk in this material sixty-five feet, and it is richer on the bottom than at the level of the tunnel. It can all be worked easily with the pick, and the walls stand without timbering. Mr. White is of the opinion that at depth this will all concentrate into a big and rich vein of quartz. Having determined by his prospecting the best place to sink a shaft Mr. White started one about sixty feet east of the footwall, calculating that at about 300 feet vertical he will have passed through the vein. At this level he will run driits on the footwall of the vein and determine the character and quantity of the ore, and if justified immediately erect a large mill and begin crashing. Then a permanent three-compartment working shaft will be started still further east to cut the vein 1000 or 1200 feet deep. At present the shaft is down 140 feet and is being sunk three feet a day, working three eight-hour shifts. About half of the bottom of the shaft is in quartz and the indications are that in ten or fifteen feet more it will be all in quartz and continue so to the footwall. The quartz prospects inely and the slate is heavily mineralized. The ore resembles very closely that of the Utica, and Mr. White thinks he is on the Utica or east ledge. The millsite below the ledge is perfect for delivering the ore clear to the stamps by gravity, and a ditch 3000 feet distant, carrying 600 inches of water, is 230 feet higher than the millsite, affording un- rivaled facilities for obtaining power. The county road runs right by the mine. The ranch is covered with oak and pine timber. Natural springs afford abundant and de- licious water. There are numerous ledges cropping on different parts of the ranch,as yet un- rospectet?. On the north side of the hill rom the shaft there is a cropping fully 100 feet wide, the quartz bowlders being “cov- ered with moss, and apparently never hav- ing been struck by a hammer. Running across the south forty acres is another large vein, known as the west vein, on which little or nothing has yet been done. The developments on the Edna mine are tully as promising and of as much im- portance as those on the Thorpe. Hundreds of tons of good pay ore are in sight, but the company will not put up a mill until they have thoroughly prospected the mine and opened it up for production on a large scale. Their course in this respect receives the commendation of all good miners, About midway between San Andreas and Angels, on the Copperopolis road, Sheriff B. K. Thorn has forty acres of patented land, through which the main | footwall ledge of the mother lode belt courses. Enough development has been done to indicate that this may become one of the most important mines’in Calaveras County. The hanging wall of the ledge is diorite and the footwall a black slate, with a heavy gouge. The general characteristics are said to be identical with those of the Gwin and Kennedy mines in Amador. Ben Johnson, the present superintendent of the Illinois, was formerly a part owner of the Kennedy mine and_has worked for years in that and other mines in the foot- wall belt in Amador, and says he has seen nothing elsewhere so favorable to a per- manent and paying mine asin the Illinois. All the work 8o far done has been in pay ore, and seems to insure a chimney at least 150 feet in length on the vein. The general course of the vein is north- | westerly and southeasterly. The yein dips to the east, at an angle of about 55 degrees. On the surface there afe bold outcroppings, prospecting well in the pan, and at the bottom of the shaft the assay value of the ore is said to be $10 a ton. There is an in- cline shaft 120 feet deep, following the course of the vein. At the 100 level a drift is being run south on the vein and is now in between sixty and seventy feet. The ore prospects well the entire length of this drift. The vein varies in width, swellicg and pinching in the manner characteristic of the footwall ledge, in places being six feet wide and again contracting to a few inches. The depth is not sufficient yet to be below the surface disturbances, which have twisted and contorted the upper strata. About 200 feet from the main shaft an- other shaft has been sunk on a large vein which intersects the footwall vein some hundred feet north of the main shaft. This shaft was in good ore all the way, and shows six feet of quartz at the bottom. All the material extracted has been piled up as mill rock. A drift will probably be started north from the muin shaft to pros- pect the intersection of the two veins, where in the natural order of thingsa bonanza ought to be encountered. The richest ore so far found on the surface was in a shaliow hole 150 feet south of the shaft. A dozen pans of rock and dirt in the intervening space showed rich pros- pects which at a low estimate would av- erage $10 per ton. It is safeto say there are 2000 tons of ore in sight that would mill from $8 to $i0 per ton. In much of the rock on the surface fine free gold can be readily seen. Sheriff Thorne is desirous of securing a partner with capital to sink a deep shaft and putup a mill. He does not wish to dispose of the entire mine, as he has held 1tmany years and believes firmly that it is one of the great properties of the mother lode. With the ore in sight he thinksa ten-stamp mill would pay all expenses until the mine was opened up to at least the 500 level. The mine is right on the county road, affording perfect facilities for transportation. There is an abund- ance of wood, which can be delivered at the mine for $2 50 per cord. Water for milling and pewer can be obtained from three or four sources at moderate cost, either for direct application or through electric transmission. The altitude ot the mine is about 1200 feet and two reilroad surveys have been made close to it from Valley Springs to Angels. It isabout fif- teen miles to the railroad at Valley Springs. The Donlan _mine is a curiosity 1o per- sons not familiar with the mother lode. There is a belt of stratified and blacky slate, full of guartz seams, from fifty to 300 feet wide. The entire mass prospects i free gold, in places barely affording a profit in working, and again being rich and runmng up the average. It is located three miles north of San Andreas, and was worked for thirteen gears by Mr. Donlan, the ore being bauled a considerable dis- tance in cars and run through a four- stamp mill. The, mine was bonded some time ago by E. 8. de Golyerand E. H. Hackett, mining men from Salt Lake, and they are actively at work improving the property. They have begun the erection of a 15-stamp mill, have dug a new ditch three miles JJong which will carry 250 inches of water, and will soon be ready to begin crushing rock. _The claim comprises a full mining loca- tion, 1500x600 feet, and twenty acres addi- tional for millsite. The water is free, and will be delivered at the mill under fifty- foot pressure. The mine %neid under many disadvan- tages while being worked by the former owner, and under the improved methods ' will undoubtedly prove a bonanza. The THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, MONDAY, OCTOBER 14, 1895. price paid for the mine was $22,125—$5000 cash. A conservative estimate of the ore in sight on the surface places 1t at 200,000 tons, and the probabilities are that the best part of the mine will be found below. There are numerous large stringers of quartz in the vein materiai, some of them approaching the dignity of regular veins, and they all carry gold, some of the quartz being high grade. Messrs. De Golyer and Hackett have also bonded 200 acres adjoining their claim on the north, on which’ is the Comet mine, a continuation of their ore bodv. Mr. De Golyer says Colorado men would be as- tounded at the opportunitizs lying idle along the mother lode if they could be brought out here and made to appreciate them. Their attention is being rapidly drawn thie way, however, and when they begin to take hold the people here will begin to appreciate the fact that they have some mines. A short distance to the northeast of San Andreas, within the limits of the town- site, is the Fellowcraft or ‘“Bodie” mine, The claim comprises 1500 by 300 feet, and eight acres adjoining for a nillsite. In early days the gulch below this mine was famous for its richness, $100,000 being the estimated amount taken out, every dollar of it quartz gold. The hill above this gulch is about 200 feet high, and there are big and little croppings from the base to the summit. There are prospect holes all over the side of the hill, and many rich pockets have been found. A good pros- pect can be obtained in the pan almost anywhere, and a mill test of a hundred tons made some years ago showed $4 per ton in fine gold, in addition to the pockets, which were many and rich. The indications are that at depth the many stringers and feeders of quartz will concentrate into a main vein, H. Bodie, the former owner, recently sold the property to B. H. West, acting for himself and others. The price paid was $3000, and the purchasers are thought to have secured a great bargain. The mine will probably be worked as a close corpora- tion. The new owners have put a force of men to work retimbering an old_shaft_and tun- nel, erecting hoisting works and grading for'a millsite. The tunnel is eighty feet long and the shaft at the end of it down seventy-five feet, or something over 100 feet from the surface. Crosscutting has been commenced from the bottom of this shaft, and the main ledge will soon be en- countered. As far as developed this main ledge is eight to ten feet wide. A ten-stamp mill has been purchased and will be crushing rock as soon as the mine is put in a condition to produce ore and the mill erected. The mill will get its water and power from the Treat ditch, there being a fall of 200 feet from the ditch to the mill. The water will be brought to the mill through 1700 feet of iron pipe. ‘When everything is in working order and the mill running quite a large force of men will be employed, helping materially busi- ness of all kinds in San Andreas. The Everlasting mine is located abont three-quarters of a mile north of San An- dreas, and includes 3000 feet of patented ground. It is said to be om the westor Gwin ledge of the mother lode. There have been no developments below the water level, but it has produced some won- derfully rich rock. It has been recenily bonded to Philipp Deidesheimer, a_well- known San Francisco mining man, and a force of men will be immediately put to work doing some preliminary prospecting until the location of the permanent work- ing shaft is determined upon. Another property bonded by Mr. Deidesheimer is the Unexpected, compris- ing 4500 feet in close proximity to the in mine. The work of development on this mine is expected to begin some time this month. Mr. Deidesheimer is alzo looking at several other properties in Calaveras County with a view to securing them for capitalist J. BROOKS. RELIGION A POSSESSION Mrs. Van Cott, the Evangelist, Exhorts Mothers to Do Their Duty. The New Woman Is She Who Sows Good In the Hearts of Her Children. “Don’t expect to hear a new religion,” said Mrs. Maggie Van Cott, the evangelist, at the Howard-street Methodist Church last evening. “I come only to tell you the old, old story of Jesus and his love. “David asked of Jonathan, ‘What have I done and what is my sin, and what is my iniquity before thy father that he Mrs. Maggie Van Cott. wrecketh my life?” Take to your own hearts the sentence, ‘What have I done?’ Have you made the world better for hay- ing lived in it? Have you shown poor verishing ones the way of life? hat have you done? Whatever it is, you can- not reverse God Almighty’s law and escape from it.”” The speaker addressed herself particularly to mothers. “The greatest sin known to heaven,” said- she, “is the sin of a mother to her child. What power God has given the hand of woman! The most hallowed spot on earth is the mother's bosom. he goodness of the future is determined by what the mother of to-day sows in the minds and hearts of her children. Let your life correspond to your profession, or it is not a perfect life, Put God in your home and your place of business and let the world see the powerful intluence of a consecrated life.”” Mrs. Van Cott is making the tour of the State, and holds evangelical meetings in ail the principal towns. Remarkable suc- cess has been vouchsafed her in her labor of salvation. Her earnestness, eloquence and old-fashioned motherly ways make her a power of infinite good. “For thirty-three years,” she said, “I led the life of frivolity and social tolly, but the Lord came to me one time when I was walking along the street, and since then—thirty-five years ago—I have fived for God alone, and with these hands L have grasped the hands of 26,000 souls Who have promised me to devote their lives to Christ.” Mrs. Van Cott will hold meetings at the Howard-street Methodist Chur every evening at 7 o’clock of the ensuing week, S"mdli included, and every afternoon at 3 o'clock, except Monday and Saturday. She 1s accompanicd by E.'J. Northrop, the singing evangelist, and the Noble sisters, who play the cornet and trombone. JUDGES PLAY HANDBALL, Conlan and Campbell Meet Each Other at the Union Court. A LARGE CROWD SEES THE SPORT The Latter’'s Whiskers Handicap Him and He and His Partrer Lose the Game. The great event in handball circles yes- terday was a match at the Union court be- tween County Clerk Curry and Judge Campbell and Judge Conlan and A. J. Martin, ex-Fire Commissioner. The match had been quietly arranged, but 1t had leaked out somehow, and the result was the court was crowded. Judge Campbell arrived on his bicycle and played in his bloomer costume. Bailiff McNamara of Judge Campbell’s court was the referee. Judge Campbell played a good game, and if he had not been handicapped by his whiskers, which would keep getting in the way of the ball, he would have made a bettershowing. His partner, County Clerk Judge Campbell in His Bloomers Plays Handball Under Difficulties. Curry, tossed all right, but his return lacked vigor. Judge Conlan tossed a mag- nificent game and showed that he knew every trick. He was ably seconded by the ex-Fire Commissioner, who was as active as a young colt. The match was the bestof five games, Conlan and Martin winning the first, third and fourth and the match. Itis said a return match will be played in the near future, as Judge Campbell and County Clerk Curry feel sore at being de- feated. At the San Francisco court J. Jones, the Australian champion, and J. Harlow, the coast champion, and W. Williams of Bos- ton, played a rattling game. They stood two games to two, and Jones won the final by only one ace. The game of the day at the Occidendal court was between P.T. Donnelly, ama- teur champien, and Ed Maloney, and J. F. Bonnet and John Purcell. It was any- body’s game from the start, but Bonnet and the famous athlete scratched out the final game by two aces. Following were the games played at the different courts: San Francisco court—G.

Directors Held a.Special Meeting and Made Soine Satisfactory | Arrangements. There is trouble brewing among the boxers of the different clubs who had en- tered for the special match contests at the Olympic Club on Tuesday evening next. The superintendent was completely dum- founded yesterday when a squad of box- ing athletes appeared before him and de- manded extra tickets for their friends. | The present rules of the club allow each of | C the boxers two tickets; but it appears that the allowance was not satisfactory, and | 2z B. the leaders of the strikers demanded an extra supply. In fact, nothing less than | five tickets per man would prove satisfac- tory. A director explained to the men of | muscle the rules of the club relative to the | disposition of complimentary tickets, but the boxers refused to listen to argument, and nothing less than four tickets to each boxer would finally satisfy their wishes. The upshot of the affair was that a special meeting of the directors was called | to adjust the differences and to settlea | question of much importance to the club | at this late hour. | The directors, after a very long discus- sion on matters pugilistic, made overtures | to the boxers, which were acceptable toa | majority of them. There were, however, some of the boys who woéuld not consent | to anything less than the original demand. | Smith alias Young Corbett was one of the high kickers, according to a director, | and his place will be filled to-morrow by% | another boxer named Bushnell, who will probably give a good account of himself. The boxers have a very different story to | that which was told by the directors. | They contend that they are, at least, en- | titled to four tickets. In previous tourna- | ments held at the Olympic Club the | directors did not hesitate to give the fistic | actors four tickets, which the officers of | the club considered they were entitled to. The new board of directors has taken a very different view of the matter, so far as favoring boxers with tickets, and instead of allowing the principals four, tickets as has been customary, it has cut the number down to two to each man, Considering that the prizes are com- paratively insignificant—that is, so far as | boxing bouts are concerned, the general ovinion of club members is that the boxers are fairly entitled to four tickets each. However, the question of fisticuffs has come to an issue, and most of the promi. nent boxers state positively that this wiil be the last time that they will appear in the Olympic Club in match contests under the administration of the present board. Judges and referee have not yet been appointed, and, as there are none of the members anxious to serve, the direc- tors would act wisely to take the matter into their own hands, so as to prevent a possible error in the last hour. JOCKEY CLUB PLANS, President A. B. Spreckels Clearly De- fines the Sportsmanlike Intentions of the New Organization. President Adolph B. Spreckels of the Pacific Coast Jockey Club, when seen last evening regarding the report in the Sunday papers to the effect that the new track would not open until the 16th of next month on account of a non-completion of the buildings, etc., denied that such was the case, but stated that ss the Pacific Coast Trotting-horse Breeders’ Associa- tion had advertised their meeting for early in November it was not the desire of the | | oldest tree in England. new club to run in opposition, but to aid and assist in making the trotting meeting a grand success, and, as it has always been the intention of the Pacific Coast Jockey Club to do whatever lay in its power to promote the interests of the trotting turf as well as that of runners, it did not deem it advisable to open for a week and then close while their meeting was being heid, but to postpone its meeting until after the P.C. TPH B. A, held theirs, its opening being 8o near that of the new cinb. It is the desire of the P. C. T. H. B. A. to hold 1ts meeting] without interruption and endeavor to give to lovers of the sport 2 grand meeting. It is also the desire of the new club to assist it all in its power in so doiug. 5 ‘Work in making a large fill for the rail- road track to the new track will be com- menced to-day, and within twelve days steam cars_ will be running into the grounds, and as all the buildings will be finished and turned over by the contrac- rs this week, it will be readily seen that itis sodesired the new clubcould take up the running meeting on the 2d, as hereto- fore stated.

This decides the po- sition for second place in the associated clubs’ contest for the Hunter- Harrison cup. The defeated team was short a man and the victors were unusually strong.
