El Paso Output Last month the output at the El Paso mine was approximately $50,000, and it is believed that the output this month will be as large. Production is being made entirely from development, and the ore is rich.
The company is working three shifts of three crews each in the sixth level, and another crew is sinking a winze from the 330-foot level to connect with the 600-foot workings. In the latter one set of workers is upraising, while another is crosscutting to the west to open the Columbia ore shoot at this depth.

1902 Development in El Paso The year of 1902 just ended, has been the most important one in the history of Cripple Creek, from the standpoint of development. Never before have there been seen such strong indications of the permanency of ore shoots with depth. The El Paso, on Beacon hill, installed a new plant of machinery and sank a large three-compartment shaft. Only sufficient ore to pay expenses was broken and shipped.

Commander Removes Troops Denver, Dec. 16.—A Republican special from Cripple Creek last night says:
All troops which have been stationed at the EI Paso, one of the big Beacon hill mines, were withdrawn to-day by order of Colonel Verdeckberg, the commander of the National Guard in this district. It is believed by the military commander and his advisers that the conditions no longer require military protection. The non-union men working can fully protect themselves and have so declared themselves.
The move is a significant one, indicating the confidence the military authorities have in the situation.

Roosevelt Drainage Tunnel Struck Large Flow of WaterCripple Creek Drainage
Denver Correspondence
On Friday night, Nov. 11, at a point 15,956 ft. from the portal of the Cripple Creek deep-drainage tunnel, a large flow of water was struck and so suddenly that some of the men employed barely escaped with their lives.
At present the flow is about 12,000 gal. per min. from the portal, but it will probably decrease somewhat from that.
In the C. K. & N. property, just above the drainage tunnel on Beacon hill, it is stated that the water has dropped 70 ft. during the last four days.
The Portland mine is said to be dry in its lowest workings, which will save $10,000 per month in pumping expenses.
The El Paso mine is also dry and work will be commenced at once in the 1000-ft. level.
No official measurements of the lowering of the water in the mines have yet been taken but it is said to be receding in all but the extreme eastern mines of the district.
To date the approximate cost of the tunnel has been $545,000 and it was commenced in July, 1907; the depth of the tunnel below the average water level in the mines of the district is about 730 ft. Its course is north 44 deg. 20 min. east for 14,845 ft. to a point 65 ft. east of the main shaft of the El Paso mine on Beacon hill and thence north 70 deg. east toward the Vindicator shaft on Bull hill.
At the heading where the work is going on the rock is comparatively dry. Whether the whole district will be permanently benefited by this new flow of water, will be definitely known in a few days.

El Paso Reclaimed Its 1000-Ft Level Denver Nov. 25—Reports of the good effects of the recent flow of water opened by the deep drainage tunnel in the Cripple Creek gold mines, are coming in rapidly, and it is now apparent that in all probability the deep levels of the mines over nearly the entire camp will be unwatered.
In the C. K. & N. vein of the El Paso company a large body of high-grade ore has been opened in the south drift from the Fuller crosscut on the tunnel level. Twenty feet of drifting on the orebody has already been done.
The 1000-ft. level of the El Paso shaft has been reclaimed and is being cleaned of the seven years' accumulation of debris.

El Paso Mine Drains The El Paso mine is dry to the Roosevelt deep-drainage-adit level, which is 1338 ft. below the shaft collar, on a tunnel that has had increased effectiveness, and which is now draining the mining area at the rate of 82 ft. per month. This will make possible the mining of the deeper levels and, presumably, an increased production of high-grade ore.

The El Paso Consolidated Gold Mining Company The Company was incorporated under the laws of Colorado in 1893 and owns gold-mining property on Beacon hill, Cripple Creek, Colorado.
The authorized capital is $2,500,000, in 500,000 shares of $5 each, all issued and fully paid. The net operating earnings for the year were $243,429.
While this figure covers the earnings of the fiscal year, the production of ore on company account from the formerly submerged levels, which were made accessible through the drainage of the mine by direct connection with the Roosevelt drainage tunnel, only covered a period including the last six months of the year.
The total development was 6039 ft., more than a mile of driving through the hardest kind of Pike's Peak granite. The mine has been proved to a depth of 1350 ft. by opening its orebodies from the Roosevelt drainage tunnel.
The year 1913 was begun with the mine completely drained. During 1912 dividends to the amount of $122,500 were paid. The stock owned by this Company in the Cripple Creek Drainage & Tunnel Co. now amounts to $43,000, and is being amortized at the rate of $24,000 per year.
The Colorado Mines, Railways & Utilities Corporation has been formed, under the laws of Delaware to purchase the Golden Cycle stock held on option.
The financial statement of the El Paso G. M. Co. shows that its mining property is valued at $2,589,112, cash on hand amounts to $132,056, and the surplus of assets over liabilities is $492,103.
Total earnings for the year were $849,305, and the net operating earnings were $238,757. Mining costs were $186,912, and shipping and selling $233,022. Four dividends of $24,500 each were paid during the year.
