The company will, so the re- | port goes, have ten strings of tools at work as soon as possible. steamer St. Denis will take down the ma- chinery for drilling an oll well at Cape Colnett. Lower California. The San Lucas Weekly Herald says: About a month ago A. Onu, the oil expert, was called over to the ground of the Watson- ville Oil Company for the purpose of locating a | well. The company has expended about $45,000 in development work and all the company has to show for it are some rigs and a few wells about five barrels aplece in them. After a thorough examination of the couniry Mr. Onu located a site for the company and has guaranteed a 50-barrel well. The land northwest of Los Angeles is described the local papers as a ‘‘new EIl Dorado.’”” Nevertheless it is reported on | the same authority that ‘“there are few | successful companies, but that is owing 1o the fact that operations have not been confined to any one section, but have been scattered from one end of the field to the other. Although scattered, in al- most every well ofl has been found, but, unfortunately in many, water also.” | Something like a score of oil companies { #re prospecting in the new field. | The International Ofl Company, which | drilied two dry holes at its location in the Covote hills beyond East Whittier, has | ®old out its personal property to the Safe | Oil Company of Newhall.

The trend of sentiment | may be inferred from several letters | written by prominent mining men in | Northern California. H. Z. Osborne, pres- ident of the Union Consolidated woid | Mines Company, which recently acquired | the Lawrence mine on Unfon Creek, Trin- ity County, indorses the idea of institut- ing a Northern California Miners’ Associ- ation. He writes: The good it will do consists in the facility such an organization affords for the expression of the wish of the miners of the section in matters affecting thelr several interests. North- ern California would be greatly benefited by more attention from the State and national governments in the way of geological surveys, special reports of geologists and mining en- gineers and in other legitimate ways. The importance of its mineral resources, developed and undeveloped, amply justifies such atten- tion. An organization on broad lines, such as is contemplated, can accomplish important re. fults, where individual and scattered effort would perhaps be impotent: ¥ W. G. Scott, superintendent. of the Mount Shasta Gold Mines, Limited, writes in the following vigorous' fashion: ‘In reference to the formation of the Northern California_Miners' Assoclation, 1 assure you T am heartily in favor of the project. North- ern California has no business tagging along It should be at the tail end of the procession. up at the front, next the band. ‘The Lord Telps those who help themselves,” It there- fore behooves all those interested in the min- ing_industry in Shasta, Trinity and Siskiyou counties to get a move on—and an energetic move, too. These communications were addressed to Mineral Wealth, published at Redding, Shasta County, in response to queries. The association was not formed before the assembling of the California Miners’ Convention, but will probably soon be in shape. The Southwest Miners’ Associa- tion and the Petroleum Miners' Assocla- tion fndicated thelr appreciation of the value of concerted action by sending dele- gates to the convention. Concerning the utility of State organi- zation, the southern part of the State is represented by the Los Angeles Herald as entertaining views as follows: There are some mining men who deprecate the All this week we offer you the full free and Unt choice of every Ready-to-Wear, rimmed Hat in the store at exactly half the Outing regular price—half of what the same goods have selling for until to-day.

A choose from —come expecting excep- . bargains — bring instead of dollars; quarters in place of halves, existence of the assoclation and its works, but fortunately the number of these is becoming beautifully less year by year as more of the | silurians begin to shed ‘their old skins and awake to a sight of their interests. The im- portance of the work of a body representing the growing mining interests of this State can hardly be overestimated, particularly when, as now, ‘its principal work concerns nceded legis- lation. Along this line the miners have many needs, mucly to ask for and much to expect. The Southwest Miners’ Association has installed a free labor exchange and has plans for a large exhibition, including specimens of oil from different districts. Miners in Tuolumne and neighboring counties have been disturbed over the appearance of ‘“scrippers” in the gold mining regions. A postponed hearing will take place in Stockton on Tuesday, the 27th inst. A delegation from Tuolumne, headed by George Stayton, who has charge of the Willletta mine, near Jack- sonville, Tuolumne County, visited Stock- ton on the l4th inst. The Stockton Inde- pendent makes the following statement of the controversy: The delegation of Tuolumne County miners are prepared to fight the application of repre- sentatives of the Republican mine, who are sald to be trying to secure title to necessary forking ground by the use of scrip. The miners say they have no complaint to make against the Republican mine management, but they must protest against the introduction of serip to dis- turb mining titles, and when scrippers appear in any case they will be fought. The Repub- lican mine is located on the mother lode, near Jacksonville, and is believed to be a good one. The mine has been thoroughly developed and Bives promise of being a good property. The mill is located some distance from the shaft and it is claimed that it became necessary to obtain title to ground between the shaft and the mill for the proper working of the mine. Satis- factory terms could not be made for the de- sired_ground, hence application was made for the filing of scrip on certain described tracte and the matter s before the local land offices. Miners tell of instances where scrip has been used to get possession of valuable mining ground and improvements to the great damage of mine owners who have held and operated their properties for many years. To put a etop to such work is the object of the combination for defense among the mining men. The litigation concerning the Yellow Aster mine has reached a hearing in the United States Circuit Court at l.os An- geles before Judge Ross. In the original suit the Yellow Aster Company filed a complaint to ¢}ulet title to one-half of the mine. _The defendants are E. B. Stanton, B Wood: W, 1. Maschme g Maschmeyer, Frank McShane, &, 8. Eck- land and others. The matter came up on demurrer to the crogs bill. The defendants: claim that when F. M. Mooers, C. A. ‘Burcham Singleton first ob- Bul and John tained possession of the mine, which aft- terwi proved a bonanu. Burcham agreed to sell one-half to Stanton, who al- leges that he paid $i100 on the contract and expended much mcney in opening and developing the property. According io the through the ex- defendants, it was oniy penditure by Stanton that the true value ‘of the mine was discovered, and then ihe original owner refused to consider that Stanton was a part owner in the mine. Tho defendants ask for one-half the profits since the mine was opened.

Enough, however, has been learned to prove that the land is desirable from a mineral point of view. ing concerning the comparatively new Searchlight district in Nevada: Late reports from Searchlight, Nev., Indi- cafe a great deal of work being done in that camp, the ore bodies maintaining good values with depth. On the Copper King. one of the group of claims belonging to the Quartette Company, a Boston corporation, the vi which was from three. to four feet wide on surface, has Wwidth at a desth of 300 feet, from $25 to $35 per ton The Keystome Mining Company is develop- ing the Chittenden group of claims by tunnel, which is now in 300 feet, and which tapped the lead at a depth of 13 feet. C. B. Chittenden of New York and some Pennsylvania men are the owners of the property. Other properties in this district that are belng developed with suc- cess are the Buena Vista, the New Era claims, the Maxine and the Princess group. As in most mining camps, water has been scarce and a company has been organized to bring water from the timber mountain range, ten ‘miles distant from the camp. Colorado papers report a strike in a Cripple Creek mine of an inch streak of almost solld gold in the vein in the second level, the values running $8000 a ton. The streak runs through the vein for a dis- tance of twelve feet, when the values are again scattered through the mass of rock, lowering the bonanza character of the shoot. The rich core s an exception and no one counts on its being anything more than it shows to be. It. however, indi- cates a high degree of mineralization which presages well for other portions of the shoot. The history of Beacon Hill, where this property is located, is quite In the ore running The L.os Angeles Times has the follow- | increased to twenty-four feet in | | 1dleness, keeping with this find; the hill has always been more or less eccentric in the manner in which it would provide bonanza pockets. There is considerable activity reported in Inyo County mining properties, Sene ator Clark of Montana has bought the Silver Peak mine, the price bethg $800,000, The Montezuma mine has been sold to Chicago parties after several years of or $25,000. A contract has been let for ten additional stamps at the Re~ ward mine. Notes from Calaveras County are that work has been resumed at th orth Stas gravel mine in Happy Valley; that the Gwin mine is operating with water power and a full complement of eighty stamps; and that eighty men are at work on the Hexter mine at the head of Jackass Gulch. The following is from the Amador County Democrat: A new corporation has been formed under the title of the Moon Mining Compaay, composed of residents of Valley Springs, in Calaveras Coun- ty. to mine an old channel located northeast of Jackson about one and a half miles.
