long communication to The Sun. In which
he said that Judge Parker had Always been

A Revelation of Gold

The follwing article is republished this
week for the purpose of correcting mis-
take which occurred in the 9th line and
paragraph.
This should read: so per cent of the
gold has been saved by the cyanide methods
used instead of 20 per cent.
The operation of the caynide plant at the
South Homestake mill has proven beyond
possible doubt that many thousands of dol
lars have passed the plates here in the
treatment of the ores taken from the differ
ent mines.
Thirty-two thousand FIVE hundread and
fifty tons of tailings from the South Home
stake mill have been cyanided up to the
present and out of this 81, $50 tons, $8I,375
in gold have been taken and it is estimated
that only about 20 per cent of the gold has
been saved by the cyanide methods used.
All of these tailings came from ores mill
ed from the South Homestake mine except
~ tanks of s. tons each making 427o tons
that came from the Old Abe mine This
leaves 28, $50 tons of South Homestake
tailings, which have produced in gold over
eight thousand dollars, the amount taken
from Old Abe oar being about 81, 900.
This yield shows that there was big waste
over the plates at the South Homestake
mill and that the ores from this mine if prop
per values are saved is as rich as that of
any mine in the camp, not even excepting
the Old Abe, which has fortunately had
management that has made it steady
producer.
The Eagle Mining & Improvement COM
pany has discovered this fact and are now
making preparation to put in a pneumatic
cyanide process which it is believed will
save greater PERCENTAGE of gold than the
old process which is now in use.
The new plant is expected to be put into
operation next month.

Edmund c. Gelderman, a car inspector,
was crushed beneath a car which was
struck by a switch engine and overturned
in the Big Four yards at Norwood last
night and died before medical attention
could be summoned.
Gelderman was inspecting a cut of cars
standing on a sdetrack in the railroad
yards when the accident happened, and the
blame for the disaster is laid to a defective
switch.
When seen last night one of the en-
ployes of the railroad who witnessed the
accident said that a freight train got stuck
on the main line of the road and that the
switch engine had been sent to push the
heavy freight out. The cut of cars which
Gelderman was inspection was standing on
sidetrack along the main line and when
the switch engine came to the switch in
stead of keeping on the main track il
turned into the siding, crashing into the
cut OF cars and crushing Gelderman be-
meath one Of them which was overturned.
a short time the heavy car was lifted
from the body Of the inspector and his
lifeless body was taken to the city morgue
In the Dispensary ambulance, attended by
DIR. Cunningham. After the post mortem
by Deputy Coroner Gels the body was
turned over to Flanner & Buchanan for
burial.
