EXPERT REPORT ON
 NH|IE HORSE ORE Captain Stretch's Article ill Engineering Journal. IS VERY CONSERVATIVE Result of His Observations Made Last Fall-A General Essay on the Formation of Ores of the District With No General Deductions.
IS VERY CONSERVATIVE

In the last number of the Enginee ring and Mining Journal of New York, received here, Capt. R. H. Stretch. chief draughts- man ot the railroad company, has an arti- cle of page and halt on the White Horse copper belt. It has been stated sev eral times recently that Captain Stretch had reported adversely to the interests of those having claims in White Horse; that he had reported that the ore bodies were deposits and not true Assures. Captain Stretch may or my not hold this opinion and future development may bear out or contradict this opinion. but in his article in the Engineering X Mining Journal he h1s nothing to say on the subject.
 After describing the general topographi cal and geological features of the White Horse country, he says:
 , 1.-Two distinctive classes of ore are pres .enf, and their occurrence is quite different. We have large masses of specular or mag> netic irou, as at the Pueblo, where it is hemitite, or at the Little Chief, where magnetic prevails. both carrying a moder- ate tenor of copper; or outcrops of much smaller dimensions in which the ore is es. sentiallv bornite, with occasional patches of chalcopyrite and green copper carbon ates. in the condition of sand, or disen> tegrated granular limestone stained with copper. Azurite is rare; chalcocite and black oxide occur sparlngy, but native copper seems to be absent as we'll as the red oxide.
 "The typical ore is bornite. These out. crops are scattered all over the plateau, and are probably the remains of much more extensive bodies. which were de- nuded in the general erosion. They are found resting on the granite with no lime in the vicinity. or associated with the patches of lime which still remain ; and their discovery in the dense tangle is large ly matter of accident, even to the careful searcher.
 "Many of these outcrops prove to be connected with a series of more or less east and west seams, penetrating the granites, some of which may produce cons siderable ore when explored, but the writer saw no eVi-enoe of massive vein structure to support the popular theory of a great north and south lode."

action of the executive committee at it's
meeting in Lincoln last year, but the con-
Vention would not hear him and Tracy
and his faction walked out of the con
Vention. They did not hold a meeting,
as they were too few in number. but they
issued a statement In which ii was as
