Havoc Of Two Months.

We print elsewhere in The News
today a detached account of the
important events THAT have Ia
ken place in Russia since October
"a, when the ''Invisible Empire"
ordered a strike on all Russian
railroads. Scarcely could the
record be duplicated in the worlds
history, SO changing have been
the events, and so varied. Since
October 26 when 400, 0OU railway
men we're made idle by the pro-
clamation of a strike the story
has been one of blood-shed, of
tradgedy, Of destruction and de-
VISITATION unparalleled,
Since October the 29th, when a
general strike of all trades and
professions was declared it has
been one long scene of fruitless
imperial effort towards pacifca-
ton, and of unbridled and ter
rife massacre and ruin from the
insane populace. During this
period one Lieutenant General
has been assassinated three ships
sunk; many revolutionists killed !;
and almost inestimable property
destroyed.
Cringing and trembling OIL his
royal throne the Gar has sent
from Russian borders, for safe
keeping, all the Grown jewels and
$50, 600, 900 dollars in gold, Per-
haps the most diabolical work of
the crazed mobs was the relent'
less slaughter of over $4,000 Jews,
whose innocent blood cries aloud
from the ground for revenge.
The hospitals have been crowded,
countless graves have been dug,
thousands of women and children
have been left homeless and
friendless, without a father or
brother to protect them, untold
property has gone up in flames
and inexpressible misery has been
carried to the greater part of the
inhabitants of one of the largest
countries on earth.
The mighty have been brought
low and the lowly have brought
upon themselves little but misery.
Such is the havoc that has been
wrought in mighty Russia. Re-
cent dispatches declare that the
revolutionists have been mastered
and that al era of peace is near
at hand. That this may be true
is the hope of the entire civilized
world. It is an outrage on civili-
cation and enlightment that such
a state of affairs should exist.
It has all been one great sacrifice
with no apparent reward. Stuff
rage has been granted the people
and millions of tax money was
given the peasants, but even then
they were not appeased. Out of
the past chaos, law and reform
may spring, but the prospect is
now dark.--Oharlotte News.

The Goldfield news. [volume] (Goldfield, Nev.) 1904-1911, 1905-09-29

News received from the Cuprite dis
trict this week is to the effect that a
strike has been made on the property
of the Tri-Metal Mining company. The
vein matter is said to carry 20 ounces
in silver, s per cent in copper and So in
gold. The ground is being developed
by means of a tunnel which will tap
the ledge at a depth OF IS feet from
the apex of the hill. 1t is expected
that this result will be secured within
20 feet more of boring and immedi-
ately thereafter a drift will be run on
the ore body which at surface is 10
feet wide and traceable the full length
of the company's holdings. At the
present time a portion of the outcrop
is being sacked and a trial shipment
was made a few days ago to the New
Western Reduction company. No re-
turns have as yet been received on this
consignment but it is believed to carry
values in paying quantities. The
strike recently heralded was made in
exploiting the blow out. 1t is the in
~tention of Manager G. L. Diffenbaugh
to make small shipments each week if
the present conditions continue to pre-
vail.

Indications at New Camp Favorable to
Ore Production Before Long.

Over at Camp Wellington mining
matters are picking up apace and as
development work is prosecuted on the
various properties the indications for
the opening up of ore in paying guam
titles are becoming more apparent.
Word of a most encouraging nature
was received from there this week,
both as a~ppertaining to an increase in
gold values and the successful exploita-
tion of the various claims. The hoist
recently ordered for the Wellington
Goldfeld holdings is now in place and
is working without friction. The shaft
has been sunk to a depth of 100 feet
and is being lowered steadily with the
most encouraging results. AT this
point assays on the vein matter the full
width of the shaft return a general
average of $3.50 in gold to the ton,
while picked samples run from $67.40
to $3.50 per ton. As soon as the $50
foot point is attained it is the pur-
pose of the management to cross-cut
for the main ledge with the expecta-
ton of gaining contact Herewith at a
distance of about 30 feet from the
shaft. The surface indications on this
property are indicative of the finding
Of pay ore by the prosecution of sys-
tematic development work. The show
ing on the Nevada Nugget is also very
favorable and is suggestive of the
opening up of high grade ore bodies as
depth is gained. What is true of these
properties is applicable to Others as
well, and the consensus of opinion
among mining men who nave inspected
that section is to the effect that a
number of good producers will be
opened up.
