The Cariboo-McKinney Company Will Shortly ERECT A CYANIDE PLANT Por the Treatment of Tailings From the Mill - Mine Never Looked Better It. is stiitud nn good authority that the Cariboo McKinney Co.. of (Jump McKinney, owning I he famous Oitribno mine, will shortly erect aeyanide plant fm- ii-eai ment of the tailings, which have accumulated at the company's mill. A representative of the company is now looking over some of the liest. cynniile plants in the United States, for the purpose of ol.tainlng Information ahoul the different makes of cyan iile plants, anil the information thus gaiii.il will he used in the selection of a plant for the OarlllOO. Heretofore the tailings hnve lieen allowed t.. accumulate, owing to the lark if facilities for their I real ment. It has not heen the company's aim to provide meiins of In at ment for these tailings, Hilt rather to save all lhat wns possihle hy amalgamation and concentration, In order tn do this necessitated a line ei-ushiiigof the ore I.y Ihe stamps, whereas If a cyanide plant were in np. ■.ration Ihe gold values nf the tailings could he extracted without the ore Icing crushed nearly so fine, Last year there were paid in dividends tn the shareholders $50.(100, which was nnt as much jis was anticipated. The reasons the dividends did nm rea.li tlieexpeclationsof ftp shareholders was that many difficulties were 'iieounterd ill Ihe working nf the mine, which entailed unusual expense. Had a cyanide plant heen pievinnsly r eted, extracting the gnld VJilues of the tailings and permitting the mill to treata greater tonnage nf ore, the 'Xpectations of the most sanguine hareholders would have doubtless heen realized. The erection of a cyanide plant nt the Carihoo mine will he carrying out the idea uf the managing director, Geo, B, McAulay, who at the last, annual meeting of the conipany said: 'The accumulation of tailings from ihe mill having liecome so gr at as to ender necessary further piovision for their retention, a new clam has heen constructed SOO feet helow the old dam. Extensive tests have hem made of these tailings, and it has lieen ascertained that they carry values ranging from $2.20 I it $4 SI per ton. The treal ■ ment of these tailings and extraction if lhe values contained therein liy tlie cyanide process is a question which should receive ennsider.it ion at jiii early date, as it has heen demonstrated that the erection of a cyanide plant for the treatment of these tailings, and its operation in connect ion with the con.pany.s present stamp mill, will add materially to the company's .-ev.-nne. My Investigations into the question of the treatment of ore and tailings I.y the cyanide process have demonstrated that Ihe erection of sueli a plant at the company's mine Kill vlrl unity lie equivalent to an inciease of 100 |>er cent, itl the capacity of the company's mill. There having heen up to the presenl time no provision for lhe saving of values from tailings, the aim has heen lo save all that was possihle I.y plate ainalgamalioii and concentration, and to leave as litlle as possihle in the mill tailings. To this end a line crushing of the ore hy the stamps, yet the mill tailings as ahove set forth catty con- siderahle values the extraction of which is not possihle hy amalgamation and concentration, Willi the Introduction of a cyanide plant for the lieattnent. of the tailings, a coarser crushing of lhe ore would he more advantageous, as all values noi paved in the stamp mill would he saved liy the cyanide treatment, the cost of which would he n.i greater than fnr the saving of values in (lie present tailings, which liy reason of a Hue Brushing heing i hus rendered necessary, douhle the quantity of ore could he run Ihrough the mill, thus doul.ling its capacity us ahove stated, and tendering unnecessary any present addition the number of stamps in operation. From the ahove report it will he seen that it, was not the intention of tlie company al that time to Imth erect a cyanide plant anil inn-rase the numher of slumps, hut recent development has disclosed such enormous bodies of rich ore that it is now the intention of the company to do In.ill. The new policy adopted liy the coinpaiiy some time ago, of suspending for a brief period lhe payment of dividends, and applying the earnings to the development of the ore chutes and pin chase of additional plant, wiih a view lo a more economical working of the mine, is certain to meet with excellent results, and when sufficient money has heen expended to put the mine in a satisfactory condition, and ihe conipany again declares a dividend, the Cal'lhoo will no doubt hreak all ils former records as a dividend payer. The Carihoo is Ilie only free milling gold mine among the comparatively few discovered in Iho province to pay regular dividends. Last year tliere were mined and milled lft,28K tons of ore, yielding 11,400 ounces of gold hul- lion, and iiii? tons of concentrates, The teceipts firm the bullion were $100,- 831.85, . r*. A MODEL MINK. Some Pacts About the B. C. Mine, in Summit Camp. One of the Important mines of Ihe Boundary country is the B. ('. mine, whieh is located on a spur of the 0, P, B, ahout three miles from Eholt. But little is said concerning the B.C. ill* thnugh it has shipped 40,1X10 tons of nre uf an excellent grade in a little over a year and lhe rate of production it present, is aliout 0,000 Ions per iiioni h. The workings, the machinery, the huildings and the general arrangement of every thing about the mine shows that the mine is heing run liy men who thoroughly understand their husiness, Tin. main bhafl has reached ji depth of 4112 feet, ami is single, compartment down lo tlie 150-foot level and from I here down to the 485-foot il has thiee compartments. The Intention later on is to widen the shaft all the way to the surface to the three compartment si/.e. lu this shufi there will he room for two cages and a man- nay. The 100, 200 and 800-foot levels have been developed i.y an elutto'rate system of crosscuts and dtifts, and frnm these three levels ore is now he ing extruded. The 400-foot level is just now heing opened up. The ledge averages aliout !j0 feet in width. The uie is a lime and quartz gangiie carrying gold, silver and copper. Square timlier is heing used in timbering, and lhe workings are limbered throughout in the most workmanlike manner. At present some prospecting is heing done on the lower levels hy means of a diamond drill. Ahout 100 men aie employed. The plant consists of lhe half of a 20dii'l compressor which i.s supplemented hy a three-drill compressor. Besides this there is an 80 horse power hoist and the necessary hollers, A ilouble-tiark tramway leads from the shaft house to the hunkers, which are located at the railway. The hunkers have a capacity of about 500 tons. At present I hell. C. is compelled to use liox cars for its ore, which me inconvenient both to load and unload, hut the management hopes thai in lime the railway company will furnish them regular ore cars. The shaft, house, hunkers, hoarding house, lunik house, the olllce of the company and about ten collages const itule the buildings around the B, C. mine and give it the appearance of a neat little village, The location is a most picturesque one, and us the relations bet ween the management of the mine and the employees ate of Ihe friendliest possible eharaeter theia is prohahly no happier mining community in the province than can he found al lhe 11.

Work will lie continued throughout the summer. Laler underground work will hi commenced, imt. the amount of surface water to be contended wuh at lhe present lime makes it advisable to eouline the immediate work in hand to the surface, A force of some Xi men is at work on the Jewel. Developnienl. is being curried on extensively under ground one of the features under way being a new iM'ti-cninpiirlincut shaft, which is down a distance of 880 feet. Tlie new shaft has already reached a depth of 00 feel and good progress is being made. The mine has 20.00(1 tons of ore blocked oul, and I he work under way will substantially increase this reserve, ll is understood lhat the conipany proposes to erect a mill at au early date. THE POINT At Which the Marcus-Republic RE-ENTERS THE STATES I tallowing the Kettle Kiver lo Curlew, Thence Along Curlew Creek to Republic. There have heen some interesting developments in railway matters during the past week. Ill last, week's issue we published a telegram ft oui St, Paul, whicli staled that work wonld he commenced immediately on the (Ireat Northern branch from Mat cits to Republic, but no particulars as lo the route lakeii hy the load wercuvail- ui.l"* al that time. During Ihe past week it, has been officially given out at .St. Paul that the road will take a somewhat different route from ihat generally supposed by most of the people of this count ry. According to tin maps and profiles of Ihe new line, as far as Ihey have been completed, they show the road stall ing at Marcus, crossing iheCdhimhia and following the Kettle river north tor about 20 miles at a dis,ance of from one half to thiee miles, It will run direct 15 miles to a point north of the international boundary line between Grand Porks and Carson. It will then describe a semicircle, again crossing the boundary line at Midway, which is about ten miles west of Nelson, Wash., and from here it will follow the Keitle river lo Curlew and then following Curlew creek lo Republic. Tliere are several reasons for making Ihis long detour of the northern conn- try iu oidei lo reach Republic, hut thn most important of Ihese is to reach lhe rich mineral regions of the Bonndary country, which is acknowledged to he the wealthiest s.-ciiou of Briiish Columbia, Of course it is impossible to reach Republic from Marcos by a lnecl line owing to the insiu-m,unliable harriers encountered in building over the mountains, but a much shorter line than the one proposed could and would he built, were lhe Great Noi them not anxious to share in the enormous traffic this country will have as development increases, Dr. A. H. Ledoux an eminent New York metellurgist, who has recently been investigating the mineral resources of the Boundary .listrut in an interview in Spokane a few days ago mid : "I inn not connected with any railroad, but I tun certain that there- ports are absolutely true, that the road from Marcus tn Republic, hy way of Grand Forks and Midway, will be in operation before the end of the yen-. Before I left New York Mr, Bill assured methnt the roud would l.e built, and tliis he latter confirmed al St. Paul. The following despatch from Sl, Paul gives an Idea of the proposed route. St. Paul, Minn., June !J4,—Though the distance from Milieus, Wash., to Republic is less I Ium III miles, Ihe Great Northern will lit obliged to hulkl 88 miles of toad to connect tbe mining country with the Spokane Falls* Northern. Tin- road will start from Marcus, crossing the Columbia and following the Kettle Rivet1 north for about '20 miles j.t a dislance of from one ball' to three miles, lt will run direct lo miles to a point north of the international boundary line between (.rand Foiks and ('arson, ll will then describe a semicircle, again crossing the boundary line about 10 miles wesl of Nelson, Wash., again crossing Ihe Kettle river, keeping close io Otirlew creek and east of Like Karantip, or Curlew lake, crossing Klataoos creek aud the San Poil river to Republic. "It is an utter impossibility," said Chief Engineer Stevens, "lo gel, into tlie Republic country in any other way. It would be too expensive and the grade would he too heavy for hauling heavy trains. Again, by milking ;i long detour lo the north, we touch other mining legions whicli will af- foul additional traffic." The route outlined is approximately as it will he when completed, but the engineers tuny change the line for more feasible routes as the work progresses. Mr. Stevens was over this route about two months ago. Some (Continued on Second Page.l Published .vonkly al Midway, It. 0.
