by an employe. Trouble is said to

dressed. The physicians are fearful
only of poisoning from extraneous

that the camps throughout are in bet

sociates at camp within the next few
days. The message does not tell Of
the tonnage now being reduced nor
of the number of teaching tanks into
which the gold-bearing rock has been
dumped, but it is safe to assume that
the management is urging the plant
