They calculate their output in 1882 will aver- age 800 tons monthly. The reported sale of | the Oswego Furnaces to Henry Villard and his associates has not been confirmed. They figure their monthly yield for 1882 at 500 tons per month. They have a local sale for fully one-quarter of their production. J. W. Harrison’s annual circular is a condensed re view of the pig iron market of California for the past six years, classifying each year’s consumption, stock, importations, &c., under separate headings, to facilitate the ecalcu- lation of the relative bearings of each year.

It would appear sin that the quantity of foreign iron imported should be so light, in view of the consump- tion being so large—nearly 3500 tons over that of 1880. . Still this is explained by the fact that the Clipper Gap Furnaces in Placer County, and the tewrens Company’s furnaces in Oregon combined, were expected to yield more the consumption of California, which had averaged 14,400 tons per annum for the preceding five years, In addition to this we commenced the year 1881 with nearly 15,000 tons on hand; so importers, forepru- dential reasons, withheld ordering. It hav- ing been since ascertained that a certain quantity of soft Scotch is absolutely required to mix with our local product, orders have been more freely given, and there is at this date more Scotch iron en route than at this time last year.

The Placer Herald has this to say about chrome iron: ‘‘We learn from Major Heuston, who has charge of the chrome min- ing now being carried on in this county, that they find the chrome iron belt very exten- sive. It crosses Placer, and on South into El Dorado, and then traces of it are found nearly to the Southern extremity of the State. He has already shipped 80 tons from Auburn depot to Boston, and has over 30 tons ready to be forwarded. At the mines, near Michigan Bluff, about 100 tons are out awaiting the wagons to haul it down. Some rich deposits have been opened up on Slate Creek, two miles southwest of Georgetown, in El Dorado county, and hauling from there was commenced last Tuesday. The Major hopes to send off at least 500 tons before the winter rains shall render the roads impass- able for loaded teams.

It was not until recently that the least attention was paid to the subject, and even now, outside of a few local papers and one or two of the San Francisco dailies, the matter is not mentioned. Public attention, even in the counties where valuable deposits of iron are known to exist, has not attracted that investment of capital necessary to the development ofthe mines. Notwithstanding this indifference regarding what is sure to be one of the leading interests of the State in the near future, at least four of the moun- tain counties contain deposits of iron equal in quality to the richest ores of Pennsylvania rab New York—Calaveras, Tuolumne, Placer and Shasta.

The mining and manufacture of iron will be pan of the 0 of the ~— induséries of Oregon an ashington. Great deposits of this valuable metal are known to ome. in many localities within their territory, and this fact, coupled with those of ample trans- portation facilities by water and rail, vast mines of coal for coke and fyel, and forests of timber for charcoal, must-eventually cause the establishment of furnaces and manufac- tories in large numbers as soon as they be- come known. There are few localities so abundantly favored by nature for the profit- able development of this i 4 that it will in time become a field in which thousands of busy hands and millions of capital will be employed, is doubted by no one at all uainted with the mineral wealth of this section of the Pacific coast. ality. of, iron gular | All baser metals are compelled to remain un-- developed where gold and silver are to be found, until either a population that is per- manent have established themselves, or the ” richer metals have been com tively ex- hausted. Then these deposited minerals will receive the attention they deserve, and not till then. Although several important depos- its are known to exist in Oregon and. Washington, but two companies are doing anything in the way of ing them. These are the Osw Iron Works, located seven miles south of Portland, and the Iron- dale Iron Works, near Port Townsend, W.T. The latter has been established but a short time, and is rated by California capital. A favanee: Tea been erected and some work done, but no figures have beex ascertained as to the amount.

The plant of the Oswego company is located on the west bank of the Willamette River, the mine be- ing three miles from the r) blast furnace, with which it is connected by railroad, over which the ore is carried by a train of six cars, each capable of holding five tons, The mine is well devel by tunnels, shafte and inclines, and yields an abundance of ore, The dangers arising from choke damp and other vitiated air are obviated by a hot-air furnace, pipes from which lead through all the eries and afford a pure atmosphere to the miners employed there. The ore of the mine is brown hematite of an excellent variety, and yields 40 per cent, ‘of pure metallic iron. e tiny daily eut- ut is 100 tons, all of which is shipped to ortland and California foundries for manu- facture into various articles of utility, It is estimated that there is now in sight ore enough to last 50 years at the least calcula- tion, taking into consideration the ive growth of the country and consequent demand for pig iron. The limestone used as a flux in the furnace comes from “Washing- ton Territory, and the sand used from the Sandy River. About 150 Chinamen are controlled the trade in this commodity, the| employed in cutting and burning the wood next shipment will be sent by way of the | intoc , and 30 white men are engaged in hauling it to the works. Some 300 men are employed about the mine and works alto- gether. The blast furnace is a large struc- ture 42 feet in hight, capable of turning out 20 tons of pig iron daily. The company completed one blast of 8000 tons during the summer, and are now busy turning out another. The quality of the iron © at Oswego is considered superior to any other on the Pacific Coast, and equal to the best produced in the United States anywhere. The sales of the company for 1881 will reach a figure in the neighborhood of $200,000. Next year, with its prospective increase in demand and better advantages for turning out ore, this amount will doubtless be much increased. From its first inception it con- tinued in operation until April 8, 1869, dur- ing which time it produced 2395 tons. The furnace was then blown out and remained idle until March 13, 1874, when it was started up again and ran until September, 1876, during which period it produced 5075 tons of metal. The property was sold at sheriff’s sale in September, 1877, to satisfy a judgment of creditors, to the Oswego Iron Company,/the present pro- rietors. The latter in started the urnace in Juney1878, and run until Novem- ber of the same yéar, producing 1170 tons, In the oe winter “ furnace was re- modeled and its size and capacity great] increased. It was blown in eae Octe- ber, 1879, and continued until the rst of September of the year just ended, when ee 4. THE IRON AGE. February 16, 1882. | ¥von. IEW YORK.
