TONOPAH LOCATED.
Late Maps Place 1t Within the
Confines OF ESmeralda.

Local attorneys recently returned
from Carson state that a government
map now on exhibition in the land
office in that city shows, as a result
of the survey made several months
ago, that nearly all of the town of
Tonopah and number of it's big
mines are in Esmeralda county. From
one of the attorneys the statement
was secured that the north and south
line Of Esmeralda county lies 1,400
feet east of the Golden block and
passes through the Montana. Tonopah
ground.
While the statements made have
not yet been officially verified, the
impression prevails that they are
correct, and in view of the feeling
that has been displayed by the Nye
county commissioners toward Tono-
pah, majority of the people of the
town are pleased with the prospect
of change.

AN OFFICIAL OUTRAGE.
NightWatchman Booth Arrested
On FlimSy Pretext.

The elimination of long series of
official outrages was reached last
night when Nightwatchman M. P.
Booth was arrested by Constable
Scott Hickey and Deputy Sheriff Bar
Francis on the trivial pretext Of car
rying concealed weapon and thrust
into the calaboose, where he was
kept till nearly midnight before his
release could be secured.
Booth has been nightwatchman in
Tonopah for about ten months, and
his zeal and watchfulness have at
tracted the attention OF big major
ity Of property owners on Main street
and caused them to stop the pay of
the constables which the latter have
been drawing, but not earning, and
transfer the same to Booth. This
aroused the anger Of the officers and
is the animus of the charge against
him.
The county and precinct police
have been running things with a high
hand in Tonopah the past few
months, winking at open violations of
the law, and making demands on cit
liens that SAVIOR strongly of extor-
ton. Their last act, however, has
aroused the interest of large class
of reputable people and an effort will
be made now to put stop to their
methods. A halt must be called or
something will soon happen.
1t is shame and disgrace to civil
lized community the way things have
been carried on here lately. This
town was started right and it's good
citizens propose that it shall con-
tinue on those lines.

From ClOverdale.
Harry Brallier returned Wednes-
day from several days trip to
Cloverdale. He saws that the Work
man property, which was recently
bonded by Wingfield 4 Hennessy Of
Tonopah, is. developing into a big
mine. The main shaft is down over
seventy feet, and at the bottom
crosscut places the width of the ledge
at sixteen feet, and gives average
values Of better than $25 in gold and
silver.
The Hasbr0uck.
The company is continuing the
crosscut tunnel with view to tap
ping the secondary ledge, which out
crops near the top Of the mountain.
Several stringers Of quartz have been
cut ia this tunnel, The Wine, which
is being sunk from the intersection
with the ledge No. l, is down sixty
feet and gives total depth Of 1850
feet.
Sells Its Water.
The Rescue Mining company has
sold the water which the mine is pro-
ducing approximately $4,000 per
day-to the Crystal Water company,
the compensation therefor beng a
quarter of cent gallon.
Esperanza.
| Word was received late this week
from the Esperanza, at Lone Noun
tain, that four feet of shipping ore
had been struck in the winze at a
depth of 1875 feet and that the ledge
appears strong and permanent.
Ohio-TOnopah.
The south crosscutof this property
is in 2l5 feet and piercing an oXidized
formation. The drift is ia SO feet and
following a two-foot vein of ore which
in places carries some high values.
Lone Mountain Syndicate.
Uri b. Curtis aud w. Fl. Foster
returned on Monday evening from u
visit to to the Lone Mountain Syndi-
cate company's mines and are greatly
pleased at the showing made by the
development work already accom-
plished. In following the ledge on
the incline, it entered the hanging
wall at depth OF thirty-eight feet,
but the shaft was continued to u
depth of fifty feet and on Sunday it
was encountered in the crosscut and
made u better showing than ever,
In the Judgment of the parties inter
ested, all of whom are extensively
engaged in mining in Tonopah, there
is good ground for the conclusion
that the Lone Mountain Syndicate
company is the owner Of one of thu
most promising properties IN the
famous district ssl
| Messrs Curtis and Foster alst
visited the property of the Alpine
Eagle company, of which Mr.. Curtis
is president, and found u condition Of
things far exceeding their most san
guine expectations. They state that
the time is near at hand when the
Alpine Eagle company will be shipping
lead carbonate ore similar to that
} which is now being shipped IN such
} large quantities from the Lynch and
O'Meara property. Each Of the two
drifts which are being run on the
ledge shows every Indication OF devel-
oping into large deposit of sand
carbonates and assays from the face
of the Lodges shows values ranging
from $25 to $40.

The work of sinking is going on

GRANDPA DISTRICT.
Some Important Developments
Now Being Made.

Sam Forman, Harry Ramsay, w.
w. Booth and Josiah Winchester
comprised party that visited the
Grandpa section this week. The
principal locations there are included
in the group owned by Messrs. My.
ers, Murphy, Forman, Ramsay, Davis,
Elliott and Jarvis. They are being
worked by the two gentlemen first
named, who believe that within the
next few weeks they will be able to
get out several thousand dollars
worth of ore from the ledge,
which, in appearance, resembles a
big blowout, and lies on the side Of a
hill What is considered the pay
shoot averages six feet in width, and
crops for fifty feet along the surface.
Numerous cuts have been run through
it, and these give returns OF from $40
to $50 in gold The ore is absolutely
free milling and appears to be a con-
glomerate--a mkt OF quartz, por-
phyry ard tale, and in the latter ex-
ceptionally high values are frequently
found.
Near the camp well has been re-
Gently sunk, and at a depth OF twelve
feet a big body of pure water was
found, sufficient for all domestic pur-
poses and it is believed that by devel-
opment enough can be secured for
milling purposes.
A number of prospectOrs are at
work in the vicinity and are opening
up some promising looking prospects.

"Yes. sir; did," was the reply.

it?"
A negative shake of the head was the
answer. At this time Perry had just passed
through stage of typhoid fever and was
weak. He had an idea that he would not

In an interview by reporter of the Times
this question was submitted to Mr. Cleve-
land: 1--WE have a situation now in which
the Republicans are claiming to be able to
eliminate trust evils by publicity measures
and by the enforcement of certain acts
regulating commerce, while the Democrats
and some part of the independent voters,
on the other hand, assert that the only
adequate remedy is the reform of the tar
iff which gives to the trusts the monopoly
they enjoy. and hence enables them to en-
view of this situation, will you say what
part you think trusts and tariff will play
in the campaign of 1904?
Mr. Cleveand's reply was: "You NAV
saw for me that Mr. Cleveland gave IL as
his opinion that the trust question would
not be eliminated from the next presiden-
tial canvass, and expressed himself as be-
ing entirely unable to see how the question
could be wholly divorced from the tariff
issue, to say nothing of the absolute neces-
sity of good old-fashioned insistence
upon tariff reform for its own sake and
try"
Mr.. Cleveland was asked If he thought
silver would figure at all as an issue within
the Democratic party. and he said: II did
not know that any one thought about sill
yer nowadays"

since or prior 10 the Pullman palace car
employees strike in 1894. 1t specifically de-
MES all allegations in the bill of complaint
that the Wabash Railway ever had any
complaint from their employees respecting
wages and rules regulating their employ
ment In their respective service since 1884,
but states the facts to be that the en-
ployes in the several lines of service Of the
Wabash company for years had grievances
and differences with respect 10 the amount
of wages paid and the rules and regula-
tions governing the service of their en-
ployes in their respective lines of employ
ment, and that this controversy arises not
only from complaints of members of the
respective nrotherhoods, but from the ranks
of the employees not members of the reA
spective brotherhoods involved in the in
junction proceedings. and that the effort on
the part of the grievance committees and
the officers of the Brotherhood of Railway
Trainmen and the Brotherhood of Locomo-
tive Firemen are as representatives or over
twelve hundred employees of the Wabash
Railway Company engaged a switchmen,
brakemen and firemen upon its several lines
of railway in the United States.
ACCUSED OF vACILLATING.
The answer states that the several en-
ployes engaged in the train service of the
Wabash Railway Company have frequently
presented their grievances to the Wabash
officials for adjustment and settlement.
and that the officers of said company have
persistently refused to take up and consider
or discuss such grievances with its several
employees from time to time during the past
few years or make any reasonable perma-
nent rules or regulations governing the
service of their respective employees. and
that this continued vacillating policy on
the part of the officials of the company
finally eliminated in presenting the griev-
ances and complaint to the several boards
of adjustment and grievance committees or
the two labor organizations known as the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen ana
the Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen.
The first presentation of their complaints
and grievances through the respective COM
mittees and boards of said organizations
was about four months ago and the COM
mttees have been in ST. Louis endeavor-
ing to take these matters of complaint up
with Mr.. Joseph Ramsey, jr.. of the Wa
bash Railway Company, during all that
period. and have been granted brief inter-
view only about three different times and at
each interview they were put of by some
alleged excuse or other and were compelled
