The main mill build- ing is 180x55 feet. Here are installed the rock crushers, a dozen leaching tanks • each of 150 tons capacity, sump tanks, lId tanks and all the necessary [Decide - for extracting ore by the cyanide Process. The mill contains the latest devised machinery for economically working the oft, along -with labor saving devices, which'are so essential -in treat- ing successfully low grade ore. Some 550,000 feet of lumber were used in the construction of the mill plant, and the . machinery hauled in aggregated nearly. 900,000 pounds. The mill is all that -me- chanical skill and money could make it, and its mice's is assured. The Kendall company owns ten claims knomn as the Leaking, Klondike, Cape Notne, Quartzite, Agnes, Gulch, Midget, Hopeful, Hopeless and Millsite. On the last named claim is built the mill. A 200 -foot shaft lies been sunk on the Leaking claim, and at that depth there has been done some extensive drifting OA the ore hod).
