the most practical manner for early pro-
duction of bullion. This now the most
complete plant in the whole Pierce City
district.
Since this mine has been placed upon
a working basis the public has confidence
in the permanent value of the mine and
the stock has advanced in price. Mr..
Wood is severely practical i'll his work
and conservative in his statements which
inspire confidence i'll the mine he is
operating He does not claim un-
reasonable values for his ore bodies; but
he gives accurate measurements showing
large deposits of ore bearing values OF
$40 to SIS per ton. These values he
| positively demonstrates by the certificates
of assayers and attested statements OF eX'
| haustive mill tests. These reasonable
estimates and practical conclusions have
| made Golden Gate, in the estimation o
the public, one of the big mines of thu
district.

quit work they had driven 27o feet and
had not encountered anything encourag-

good they decided this year to continue
the drift into the hill. After driving
about 10 feet they struck vein that lay
almost horizontal, and decided to make
an upraise and cross-cut II in that man.

VIGOROUSLY DENoUNCE
THE SOUTHERN PACIFIC

Los ANGELES, March 1.-THE secur-
ing of options on oil lands in the Knob
Hill district. the fashionable residence
portion OF the city, by the Southern Pa
cihc Company. has aroused property OWN
ers to the highest pitch of excitement A
score of members at a meeting of the
West Lake Improvement Association
prepared resolutions denouncing the
Southern Pacific for acquiring land for
Gil drilling purposes within the 1600-fooC
radius of the prescribed district and de-
claring the dragging Of oil wagons would
ruin the residence portion. The language
was violent, and while 1t embodfes the
feeling of property owners, it will not be
presented in its present form TO the
Council on Monday. when the matter will
have a hearing.
A significant portion of the resolutions
is that il demands that the City Council
shall not alter in any manner the pres
ent ordinance If the law stands the
railway will be compelled 70 devise other
methods to obtain oil for fuel.

THE FIRE WAS DUE
TO GROSS CARELESSNESS
Patron of the Hotel Threw Blazing
Match Into Lace Cur
+oin

NEW YORK, March T.-Regarding
the origin of the fire, the Herald will
tomorrow publish the following: John
Fov. a waiter in the hotel. was passing
through the hall on the parlor Hoor'
the first above the street. He was max
ing his way into place where he
could catch a moments sight of the
parade. In front of him walked man
patron of the hotel The waiter dld
not know him. Passing thus, one be-
hind the other. they had nearly gained
the angle of the passage near Fifth
avenue and Forty-sixth street, When
the patron drew a match and lighted
a cigar or cigarette. He tossed the
match aside. 1t was still blazing and
fell into the folds of lace curtain. In
an instant the fiinsy fabric was ablaze
and the flames shot TO the surrounding
draperies. This. from all accounts, was
the origin of the holocaust in which
many human beings perished and 9TH
ers were severely mangled, while help-
less thousands looked on in wild horror.
