AGAINST COAL TRUSTS.

The case of the Interstate Commerce
Commission vs.. Biard, commonly known
as the anthracite coal case, was decided b,
the Supreme Court Of the United States
Monday 10 favor Of the contentious Of the
Commission, the decision OF the United
States Circuit Court for the Southern district
OF New York being reversed.
This Is the case instituted before the Com
mission by w. r. Hearst OF New York, who
alleged discrimination by the railroad CON.
panies which reached the anthracite coal
mines In Pennsylvania.
During the hearing some Of the witnesses
refused to produce certain contracts bearing
upon the business OF the railroad commit
tees and the coal mines, which action was
upheld by the Circuit Court Of New York.
The United States Supreme Court held that
the contracts should have been supplied.
The opinion was handed down by Justice
Day.
In handing down the opinion of the Court,
Justice Day said that the case had grown
out oil complaint OF William Randolph
Hearst, filed In 1909 with the Interstate
Commerce Commission against the Phlla
delphia and Reading, the Lehigh Valley,
the Delaware and Lsckawanna, the Cen.
tral Railroad Company OF New Jersey and
other railroad companies, and that 1t came
to this Court on an appeal from an order
made In the Circuit Court of the United
States Tor the Southern district of New York
In the matter Of the petition of the Com.
mission Tor orders requiring the testimony
Of witnesses and the production OF certain
books and papers, in pursuance of the re
quirements oil the inter State commerce law
The fret point decided was that of iurs.
diction, which the Court decided II had uu
der the law OF 1908 regulating inter State
commerce, and, therefore, refused to enter.
tain the motion TO dismiss which was made
by the railroad companies.
The Court also held as irrelevant and in.
applicable the point made In behalf of the
railroad companies that Mr.. Hearst, the
complainant, had sustained no damage In
the case, saying that under the mandatory
provision OF the law the Commission could
not do otherwise than investigate.
Coming TO the specific items OF testimony
which the Circuit Court In Diminishing the
petition considered Irrelevant, the Court
frat considered the coal purchase contracts.
These contracts were made with coal com.
panies owned principally by the railroad
companies, aud hIed the price OF anthracite
coal, shipments to be made as called for BY
the purchasers. While the contracts were
produced Tor inspection, the wltnesse. re
fused to permit them to be given 10 evl.

Appointed superintendent.

SAN FRANCISCO, May 31.--At the
annual meeting of the directors of the
Silver Hill Mining company today, Jas.
p Woodbury. was appointed superia-
tendent of the mine, he to take charge
on the first day of June.
The ;Aove is rather good news to
the stockholders of the Silver Hill. ac
Mr. Woodbury. is known as one OF the
best milling and mining men in New
ada. The property that he assumes
charge of, is one Of the best properties
in Silver City, and in fact is one OF
the two dividend paying mines that is
quoted on the San Francisco stock
board. The mine has paid five divi
dends in the past year and the supply
of ore is such as gives the stockhold
ers- further belief that more is in
store.
The many friends of Commissioner
Woodbury. will be delighted to learn
of his good sortune, while the stock
holders can depend on careful an
successful management.

Another Dividend.

Yesterday the Ophir Mining COM
pany declared another dividend Of rs
cents per share This mine has been
a hummer for the past six months
and the lucky ones who held the stock
are reaping generous benefit. The
Ophir has paiu out over quarter Of
a million of dollars in dividends during
the past few months and there is ev-
cry reason to believe that more is in
in sight, as the company is still tax
ing out high grade ore and has the
cash in the treasury. .- ,.E -
When the new and over capitalized
stock companies look over the list it
will set some of them guessing, as the
mine that is now paying so handsome
ly was considered as worn out, played
out and aug out, while the new mines
are only talking dividends and the
shareholders and investors are looking
for the future for the results such as
the old mine on the Comstock is pan

the OIL SITUATION.
Boring Going on Rapidly at Falion.

Regarding the Oil situation this
week there are no startling develop
ments. The Douglass well is down 100
feet. at which work haa to be sus-
pended owing to the drill encountering
a boulder and the machinery being
inadequate to cope Herewith.
The announcement that land under
the Irrigation Act cannot be held on a
mineral location will no doubt have a
Quieting effect upon the excitement.
nevertheless it is the intention of the
owners Of the Douglass we'll to bore 20
considerable depth in search of ell
in paying quantities. Negotiations are
being made for a lease on the Davis
drill which has been in use on the
Brunswick Lode and which is capable
Of drilling through any and all kinds
of grouno at rapid rate.
There is plenty Of land in this coua-
try that does not come within the pr J.
visions of the Irrigation Act which
may be filed upon In fact. according
to expert opinion, this land, which is
situated in the hills surrounding the
valley is more desirable for location
purposes than the valley land.
