IRON AND STEEL WIRE ROPE,

Sole Proprietor of the
PATENT ENDLESS ROPEWAY
(Wire Tramway) for transporting Ores, etc., over mountainous places.
Agent for Pacific Wire & W. R. Manufacturing Co., of California. AND OF Rich'd Johnson & Nephew, Wire Manufacturers, of Manchester, Eng.
Mining Companies, Ferrymen, and Shipmasters
Are informed that Wire Rope can be furnished them considerably under the cost of hemp or Manila, of equal strength. Wire Rope does not stretch or shrink by change of weather. It weights 40 per cent. less than hemp; is less than one half the diameter; is easily spliced under all circumstances; is as pliable for equal strength; and is from four to five times as durable as the best Hemp or Manila Rope.
For Hoisting from deep Mines, the economy of its application is immense.
The Wire from which my Ropes are made is manufactured in San Francisco by the Pacific Wire Man- nfacturing Company, from the very best of Stock.
NOTE .- STEEL WIRE ROPE weights about six-tenths of Iron Rope, or one-third of Hemp of equal strength. Its extreme lightness saves largely in freight to remote places, and lts great durability recommends it for hoisting purposes, etc. See table of comparative weights, strengths, and sizes of.
