L. Parker, superintendent of the Dominion Copper Co. in this camp, teceived a dispatch from Senator George'A. Cox, ol Toronto, president ol the company, 01 deling the liiooklyn, the only mine that corporation has been working of late, closed. No explanation is forthcoming as to the actual cause of the shut down, and die public will have to do a little more at the same kind of guessing, which has been its only resource in the past, about the operations of this practically close corporation. Notices were posted at the mine Tuesday, and the whistle was heard for the last time that day I'he accountant, watchman and a couple of pumpmen are the only ones retained, the latter to keep the workings Iree of water. When the Dominion Copper Co's. pi operties were started early in last December, James Breeri was incharge, and it was given out that he had made airangenients with the .chief share holders of the company, to do sa) $ioo,oco worth of development un the pio|>eriies of the company, and atso to build a smelter to tieat the company's ores; in return for this he was lo receive a certain laige block ol the company's stock. Work was undertaken and was push ed with great vigor for several months on the liiooklyn, Stemwinder, Idaho and Rawhide, and those in u position to know assert that eveiy one ol" these pionerties weie in splendid shape from an ore standpoint, when they were closed. All the way from $10,000 to $15,000 a month was spent, and something, like > $20,0do woi tli��� of-*- new machinery was'bought for the properties 'I his was the situation up to three months ago, when Mr. ,Bieen was last" in Thoenix, At that time, the site of the pro|>osed smelter was undei con sideration, and rumors were soon current that Mr. Hreen and the'Toronto directois of the company could not agree on the location ol the reduction works���in fact they diametrically disagreed. Then Mi. Hreen, for reasons best known to himself, made himsell hard to find, either in the west or in the east. As a result., orders at the mine were soou coming fiom kthe company's old officers, and the wherewithal to keep the Brooklyn running came Iroin'the same'souice, For the ast couple of months the force at woik has been cut to about 25 or 30, and expenses Kept at a mini num. For all these sudden changes the local management could or would make no explanation. May Be Resumed Soon. It is an encouiaging sign that the order from headquarters does not call for pulling out the pumps, as was the case in March, 1900, when the Brooklyn was shut down before. 'This is taken tcj mean thatyit i.s more than likely that in the near future the pro* pei ty will resume operations. Inasmuch as 'developmenthas only been carried on in a desultory manner for some little time past, it is confidently believed that when work is started again it will be on a beflerand larger basis. As a matter of fact, the Brooklyn, as well as tlie other properties of the Dominion Copper Co., are looking better today than ever before, and have much more ore in sight and blocked out. A.,large amount of machinery has been,installed this year, and this will doubtless all be required and more too. ' ': . Breen (0 Build Another Smeller. It appears that although Mr. Hreen has been dropped out ofthe Dominion Copper Co.s' councils, he will at once pioceed.with the erection of another smelter. In this connection the following appears in a.' late issue of the Spokesman-Review: , 'The plan which has been under consideration by James Hreen for the erectiou of a smelter in the Boundary country, has been brought to an end. The smelter will not be built. It is understood that there was some disa- greement-in regard to ' the enterprise between Mr. Hreen and his associates, Mackenzie & Mann, railway contractors, who are part owners of the Brooklyn*1'group in the Boundary country. It was to treat the ores ofthe Brook- yii group that the smelter was planned. Mr. Hreen. whose experience with the Trail and Northport smellers, gave him unusual knowledge of Biitish Columbia copper ores, was retained to carry out the enterprise. He is back from Toronto and the east; where, after a conference with the principal backers ol the enterprise, it was decided to cancel all plansi Mr. Brcen, however, is going ahead nr-j with the plans for buil*' <>& a sineltei. He and David l^otleiingliam, long associated with him, in smelling enter prises, and Hermann Bellinger, superintendent of the .Heinze smelter at Butte, have completed plans for building a smelter-onUhe east coast of Vancouver island, 40 mites north of Victoria, B. C. It will have an initial capacity of about '300't'ons per day. Two stacks wiii be constructed at the start, t'lans will be made for increasing the capacity as'iqst as; ore can, be secured. Hermann'J Bellinger will leave the Heinfe smelters a( Butte to accept the supervision of the metallurgical department.'} .Messrs*..Breen, Votheiingham andi'^IJinger will furnish '*- funds for the \ ejntej prise. u'"*** I the Woik will be commenced at once.1' Caawlitfitloa lijstill Likely, 'Those best informed,'believe that there is considerable'likclihood of the consolidation going thiough of the Dominion Copper Co's. properties whh other Boundary mines, as related in the Pioneer two Weeks ago. li,i is pointed out that, tho company, i|ow that the Breen s-melfer^project seems to be definitely ���jfff...a.'tt\' more willing than ever to make spnie combination with a smelting concern for the treatment of their oie product, and if it can be dune by the consolidation of,severnl large mines, such as the, B.C., Moihei Lode, Brooklyn.'etc,^ it( wiii make a strong combination, that would be of the greatest benefit'^ the-owners -aiid the entire Boundary country. However, nothing definite in this .rhattfet1' is yet given out or obtainable. ^d4 PROCEEDINGS OF <?ITV COUNCIL.

SHOULD PASS Water and Light Franchises Amendment By-Law. WILL BE VOTED ON NEXT MONDAY Ratepayer* Wfli Have Privilege ol Expri using Their .Opinion! al City Office on Thia , Important Measure. E. W. Mathews, Nelson representative of R. G. Dun & Co., paid his semi-annual visit to Phoenix last 'Tuesday, accompanied by W. F. Teetzel, of the same city. Both -gentlemen were agreeably surprised at the. progress made in Phoenix since their last visit. Next Monday, fiom 8 a. ni. to 4 p. in. the ratepayers of Phoenix will have an opportunity of expressing then np- pioval or otherwise of the Water and Electric Light Franchises By Law No. 37, the lull text of which will be found on ihe last page of this issue ol the Pioneer 'The < bject ol the by-law- is to amend cl.iu es 6 and 13 of bylaw No. 24, which was the by-law passed last July and assented to by the latepayers, by which a franchise lor putting in water and light was gianted tfl"Jay P.' Graves ' and associates for a period of 25 years. As is well known by the lesidentsof this city, the water problem is the most.vexed public question that any city in the province has yet had to deal with, fiom the fact that the city is located so high that water is none too plentiful, and it is not believed the available supply will last more than a few yeais if tlie giowth of the place is anything like that anticipated. Consequently it was thought wise by the city fatheis to couple the water and light franchises together, as it is also well known that the electric light system can easily be made to pay a good letuin on the investment. Mi. Giaves, Mr. Flumerfelt and Mi. Willia.ns were granted the franchise, and the granting wasendoised by the people at the polls. 'The fianchise contained a piuvision that if the pio- moters should fail to supply sufficient watei from the present sources then the s)stem and plant shoUd be foi- t'eited to the city. When Mr. Flumer- felt saw this he declined to go on with tti'e'matteff saying he coiild not induce fiiends to invest in stock in a company that might lose all it had at any time. Consequently, the soliciioi lor the piomoteis and the city solicitor framed an amendment that the city council were satisfied was in the interests ol the city and also satisfied the pio moters. 'This amendment is the one to be voted on next Monday. By the amendment lefened to it is piovided that should the promoters tail to supply watei at any tune within five yeais, then the city shall have the privilege ot buying both the watei and light s)stems by paying the cost of the same and allowing the promoters ten per cent, inteiest on their investment, ll aftei five yeais, then the icily shall meiely pay the value ot the systems, as may be detei mined under the arbi- tration,.ict. In other words, under the origin.il agreement the city ni'ght get the water system for nothing, alter it had pioved a failuie���provided the piomoters go on with it���but the most valuable asset, the electiic light lian- chise, would be retained by the piomoters ; while, by the amendment, il it carries nexrXMonday, the city, can acquire both systems at the end of five years by payment of their value. 'The original agreement, as drawn up, has not yet been signed. 'There appears lo be an idea in some quarters that there is a gentleman in the wood pile somewhere, and for some reason this idea has a few adherents. However, none of'them have yet pointed it out. One thing that is alleged is that the Greenwood Electrii Co.-w.ili sell its system in Phoenix to the new company, and receive stock in payment therefor. But why that should trouble any one it i.s not easy to see, 'The average man does not caie particularly who owns the .stock, provided the water and light people do as they agree. 'The Greenwood Electric Co. have been lighting the city 01 Phoenix for nearly two years, and no one should know better than its managers whether it [lays or not, and if they can acquire a block of stock in the new company, they certainly have a light to do .so, and the promoters have a right to sell to them or anyone else. 'The mayor and the city council have put in a good many days and weeks on this question, and have done the best they know how for the good of the city. 'They have recommended this amendment to the people, believing (Mat, all things considered, it is for the interest of the city to pass it. ,'The Pioneer is of the same opinion. Meeting lo Coniider Water and Lif'it Mailers. 'Tuesday evening a meeting was held in th? McMillan block, to consider the water and light matters by the rate-j pajeis, but the attendance was small. Neil Stuait was asked to take the chair, and R.B. Reir, the city solicitor, explained the situation. Remarks were made by 'T. J. Haidy, A. P. McKenzie, Win, Delahay and others, including the chaiiman, all of whom seemed to think that there wa> something that had not been explained to the satisfaction of the ratepayers. As will be noted in another column, a meeting has been formally called by the city council for tonight at the McMillan block, and the city officials paitictilaily request the attendance of any who aie inteiested in the matter. OPEN MONDAY Golden Crown Pumps Will be Started Then. D. It MJNCANSON IS SUPERINTENDENT Start Tuesday for Old Eaglaad. Messrs. M.S. Aldham and Hugh R.

Wednesday morning at 3 o'clock fire broke out in the. residence . of W. Willcox, on Grey Eagle avenue, the. first notice being the awakening of the family by the presence of smoke. As quickly as possible the Phoenix Volunteer Fire Department, with Chief Hemenway in the lead, arrived On the scene, .md by the hardest kind ol work, when the task seemed impossible, succeeded in confining the flames to the basement of the house, and finally extinguishing the fire. 'The basement was badly burned out, the loss to building and contents being about $600, which was insured. 'The editor and his wife desire to express their appreciation of the efforts of the department and friends, as without them the place would have been totally destroyed. Monday morning the two pumps at the Golden Crown mine, which have not done duty for nearly a year, will be started in operation, and the water taken out ofthe mine as soon as possible. 'This will probably only require a couple of weeks, after which the active work of the property will be undertaken. I), H. Duncanson, who was foreman at the Brooklyn for several months, and who has been taking a vacation uT Vancouver and Seattle, arrived Tuesday to ,take the position of general sxperintendent of the Golden Crown. Wednesday,' in company with Fred Nation, ofBrandon, Man., one of the ~ directors of tlie Golden Crown Mines, Ltd., and VV. f; Porter, of Phoenix, the largest individual shareholder, Mr. Duncanson went out to the property, and arranged the preliminary matters for the resumptioa of operations. ' At first but a small force will be employed, which will be increared gradually, as men are needed. Late developments on the Winnipeg, adjoining the Golden Crown, have been of a most encouraging ' nature, and those in the best position to judge believe that both of them will in the near future become valuable properties. 'This was Mr. Nation's first visit to Phoenix, and he was very much pleased wtth the city and the surrounding mines which he visited, as well as ���with the prospects of the Golden Crown in particular. As will be remembered, the Brandon and Golden,Crown Mining Co., .was [reorganized- about -three months ago* as the Golden Crown Mines, Ltd., on an assessable basis, with the' 6ld shares paid up to 95 cents per share. Assessment No. 1 has been generally met, and the second has been called. Although the old company has done a large* amount of development work, the cost of smelting and freight was high, and so the concern got into debt considerably. This debt has now been provided for, and both freight and treatment rates are much lower than when the mine closed operations, in November, last year. IMPORTANT NEWS ITEMS. Church Services Tomorrow.

For one thing it will be remembered for the number of churches established in this mining camp.

Hut there is one thing that these organizations, if united for this special work,'can accomplish, and do inoie real good than they will separately. At present there is no place- in' the city where a young man who has no home can go to'spend an evening in reading or other social enjoyment.'

G Notii-ing this week ihiit ��� ihe $25 [shares ol' the Calumet ;iiVd Hecla mine, Ot Michigan, are quoted' on the Neu I York exchange at the figure ol $625 each,-the Pioneer has looked up the data in regard to this great,,piopeny, Kiiotving ,that the history ol' copper mines, especially suci:e.ssiu! ones, is ol interest to the readeis of. this- paper, ironi ocean to ocean. It is of course ol peculiar interest because it is honestly helieved hy many thai the Boundary today has what wiii in the future some of the greatest copper, producers in the world. It may he"��� said, iii the first pla'i e, that there arc so many points 01" interest regarding the Calumet and Hecla,: and its s<"ale of operations is on such'.a'colossal' plan, that only the meicst skeleton of facts' and;:figures caii he given in the .limited scope oi this aiticle. Of all the world's mines of diamonds, gold,, silver and other metals, the Calumet and Hecla is the most profitable, the deepest, the largest employer of labor, the owner, of the most powerful.- machinery., and the greatest consumer of coal. , Inception qf (he Present Cctmpaijy. The Calt|ii\et and''".'Hecla Alining Co: was incorporated, in ; 187:2, and .took over the Calumet and Hecla properties, adjoining mines, which had previous to that date paid'.dividends ��� amounting to' $850,000. They aie still'worked separately, but with the same chief officers, who are capitalists in Boston, Mass., there being ovei 3,000..shareholders." The 'company's main tractbf mineiiil landss comprise about 2,700 acres, in a compact body, but it also owns other immense mineral and timber tracts. ' ���"' , ���On the Red -jacket, one of the company's .claims,^ is; the; deepest shaft in the world, being over, a mile, or 5,280 feet, straight down.

These estimates are remarkably meagre, but as the dividends are phenomenally large, the stockholders content themselves' with the minimum of information regarding their property and the maximum'of profits derived therefrom. Thus far tlie mines have "paid back to their owners over $75,000,000 in dividends, and as long as they continue lo coin,* regularly,' the sjh.nrelwlders wiii pro- jiably.npt wny much about the de- tnils'of mining. How the Mine is Worked, . This great property is woiked by shafts entirely, there being eight inclined working shafts nnd a single vertical shaft, ecjiial to six ordinary shafts, being the mile'deep shall above referred to. It took about ten yeais to sink the six-compartment shaft. TliecquipiTietUof.the.se shafts is ot the best, there being an 18x24 'l,-:'1 crusher at ihe mouth ,of. each shall, from which the ore 'alls into storage bins, and is thence taken to the two smelters owned by the company. A quadruple hoist of S,ooo horse power is installed in a nirghificeni brownstone builui!ig,7ox.72o leet in size, at the mouth ol the Red Jacket -shaft, the structure being equal.in design and nialeiial.lo the most palatial buildings for business or residence purposes. Ten-ton loads are hoisted at the rate of 40 miles an hour, a feat pal machinci y is localed in "what is known as the ."Jumbo" engine house, at the Calumet, branch. In this house, 62x146 feet',"are located the big Corliss engine, "Superior," of 4,700 horse pc.wer, having 40inch cylinders, with 70x72 inch stroke; also the atixillaiv engines 01 2,000 and 660 horse power, respectively, and the ��� "Mackinac/' 'a quadruple cylinder triple* expansion steel giant of 7,000 horse power. In this building are four drums, 3^ feet wide and 20^ feet iii diameter, two of them carrying more than a mile and 1 quarter of cable, each. The brick chimney is 250 feet high, and the coal ,1s hauled by locomotives 10 these I boiler houses and fed by automatic stokers. JJtit lew points.oir the earth's 4ii.ijMft_cari show such: a variety of maniiiiolhmachinery. '-There are several other engine houses, but these de: tails are given to show the stupendous scale on which they are constructed. Otier Features of the Property. In the way of necessary surface buildings, the Calumet and Hecla have a marvellously complete, equip ment, and ..everything7 duplicated,' so that it can be put in use on a moment's notice. The list iuclude machine and carpenter shops fitted with' the heaviest and most costly machinery,, besides nuhnrp.us other-smaller'-buildings and a large brick warehouse. ; A complete telephone "system is maintained, with eighty -'phones, connecting every level of the different mines, so that the manager in his office in Hoston can, if-he chooses, talk to any foreman at any' point in the mines. There is* not a dollar of insurance on these'immense.,'vested interests, but the company at great expense li'.ninia'ins a paid fire department, equipped with the latest and best in that line. No insurance company would take risks an the' property, and it devolves on ihe company to furnish its own protection, 7:; : ,Wiipn the mills-' now being put in are completed there will be a daily capacity of abcut 7,500 tons daily. .; Coal !s the lil'eblood of the mine, and the company has a series of large coal sheds, so.jhat no coal strike will ever affect the working of the mines. As the company now has engines with about 50,000 horse power, it can be seen that the consumption is immense. The Calumet and Hecla maintain a line hospital for its employees, with a staff of twelve surgeons and..physicians. It is fitted with the best surgical and laboratory, apparatus obtainable in 'Europe and America. The company owns more than 1,000 dwellings, which are rented to employees so as to bring in 6 per cent interest-'on the-investment. Besides this more than a thousand employees live in homes of their own. There are nearly 30 churches on Calumet and Hecla lands, nearly all of which have been aided in erection and many in maintenance by the company. There are also eight schools on the company's land, many of which were built by the-corporation. 'Three independent systems of wa,ter works are miu'iUajned, with about 35,000,000 gallons daily capacity, At present there are upwards ol" 5,000 employees of tlie corporation, but there will be upwards of 7,000 in a 'comparatively short time. The company has a large stone building fitted with bowling alleys, bathrooms, et.",,and a library of 25,000 volumes for the nee use of the employees. 'The library contains books in a score of languages, thirty different nationalities being represented in the employees, C.'iluinet is now a busy .place of 35,000 people. Greater Calumet, of which the Calumet and Hecla is the neiu t, is eight miles Ion;; by three miles wide, and is said tci be the most populous mining camp in the world at the piesent time. The Calumet and Hecla is opened eight or ten yeais ahead 0!' immediate requirements, there being about 1 5 miles of shafts and drifts opened ahead of the stopes.

Title | The Phoenix Pioneer |
Alternate Title | [The Phoenix Pioneer and Boundary Mining Journal] |
Publisher | Phoenix, B.C. : Pioneer Publishing Co. |
Date Issued | 1901-10-19 |
Description | Devoted to the interests of the Boundary Mining District. The Phoenix Pioneer was published in Phoenix, in the Kootenay Boundary region of southern British Columbia, and ran from April 1898 to May 1916. The Pioneer was published by the Pioneer Publishing Company, which was managed by W. B. Wilcox (from 1899-1908) and Thomas Alfred Love (from 1908-1911). On August 12th, 1910, the headquarters of the Pioneer burned down, together with a large portion of the town of Phoenix itself, and the paper consequently suffered serious financial difficulties. On April 11th, 1911, the Pioneer was sold to Gilbert Kay, who published and edited the paper until May 1916. The paper was published under a variant title, the Phoenix Pioneer and Boundary Mining Journal, both from 1903-1910 and from 1911-1912. |
