IRON AND STEEL WIRE ROPE

For Mining and Hoisting Purposes,

BARBED WIRE FENCE And Wire of All Kinds.

ESTABLISHED 1857.

Office and Depot 6 CALIFORNIA STREET, San Francisco.

SOLE PROPRIETOR OF THE

Patent Endless Ropeway (Wire Tramway) for transporting Ores, etc., over mountainous places.

Mining Companies, Ferrymen and Shipmasters

Are informed that Wire Rope can be furnished them considerably under the cost of Hemp or Manilla, of equal strength. Wire Rope does not stretch or shrink by change of weather. It weighs 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 Manilla Rope.

FOR HOISTING FROM DEEP MINES, THE ECONOMY OF ITS APPLICATION IS IMMENSE.

NOTE .- STEEL WIRE ROPE weighs 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 its great durability recommends it for hoisting pur- poses, etc. See table of comparative weights, strength and sizes of

Steel Wire Rope.

ENDLESS WIRE ROPEWAY ( Wire Tramway) secured by numerous Patents.

By means of the Ropeway, ores, rock and other material can be transported over mountainous and difficult places, where it would be impossible or exceedingly expensive to build a road. It can deliver from five to fifty tons per hour, according to capacity, and being carried upon posts, above snow and other obstructions, can be used when other modes of transportation would be impossible.

Fireman's Fund

INSURANCE Co.

OF CALIFORNIA

Having agencies in all the principal cities and towns in the United States, through which it is in receipt of a large annual income from Fire Premiums, without heavy concentration of lines, at Home or abroad, thus enabling it to

GUARANTEE FULL INDEMNITY TO PATRONS

The FIREMAN'S FUND of California has been thoroughly tested in the greatest fires of modern history. In the great CHICAGO FIRE (1871) this Company sustained and honorably paid a loss of OVER HALF A MILLION DOLLARS, and the next year, at BOSTON, paid $158,000, in the great fire in that city. The Company paid $126,000 in the great VIRGINIA CITY FIRE (1875). Its losses paid in the first fourteen years of its existence

Aggregate $3,189,515.03

The INSURANCE MONITOR (New York) for June. 1877, says : "The FIREMAN's FUND has, by its promptness to pay losses, large and small, by the high character of its managerial talent, and by its fidelity to the best principles of Underwriting, reached a commanding position among the Insurance Companies of the coun- try. With the public, its policies rank with those of the best English and American Companies.

MARINE AGENCIES in Portland, Oregon, and Honolulu, H. I. Applicants for Marine Insurance at other points may obtain information and rates through the Company's Local Agents.
