On the 20th of last month Messrs. Bell &
Stephens brought down from Pinos Altos 65
pounds of melted gold in bars and again on
Monday 40 pounds more. This made a good
showing for the first month’s installment on the
proposed one ton gold brick for the world’s fair.
One hundred and five pounds per month will
not quite fill the bill but the mill has not been
running full time. Hereafter the shipments will
probably be larger and the display at Chicago
when the fair opens will be full one ton weight
of pure gold. These installments are being stored
in New York where a furnace and crucible
specially constructed for the purpose, will be
used to melt and pour the gold brick which will
bear the legend.
