He reports in from California that the Old Luess mine, later Cala Veras, has a 4½ to 6 foot ledge.

Homes of Salt Lake City as secretary and treasurer, and Chester D. Coram of Boston as manager. P. Houghton of Los Angeles is superintendent. The mine shows a 650 foot tunnel, at least 500 feet of backs, and ledge extending to the surface. Ore is fair with rich pockets, run to the mill for cheap work. A double-compartment shaft 444 by 8 feet, timbered with 8x8s, is sunk to 65 feet, expected to reach the lead at 320 feet. Three eight-hour shifts with eight men per shift are employed. A 1000-foot-capable hoist and engine are on site, with gallows frame to begin next Monday.
