While in Goldfeld last week Mr.. C.
M. Schwab was interviewed by a
News representative, to whom be
impaired the following information;
ut is our intention to push the ex-
ploitation Of our properties as rapidly
as is possible under the present facil-
tiles for handling the product; and
one Of the main purposes Of my pres.
ent visit IS to look into the advisability
of establishing a smelter somewhere
IN this section for the treatment Of
the ores mined in our properties.
This plan is as yet, however, embry-
onic and | am unable to state at this
time just what the result viii be in
that respect. Mr.. McKane is the
arbiter in the matter, and whatever
he advocates in the way Of improve
ments at our mines and in the line Of
future investments, will meet with
my approval. 1t is our purpose to
visit u holdings at Bullfrog, which
include the, Great Eastern group and
others, and ! may state that any
thing in the way Of profitable mining
investment that may be offered US
will receive considerable attention. =
When asked if he had any invest.
ment in sight at this time Mr.. Schwat
replied, that is somewhat Of a lead
ing question which the future will be
left to answer"
There is a persistent rumor cur.
rent, however, that a deal is pending
for the purchase OF a number of prom.
inent Goldfeld producers by the
Schwab syndicate, but these rumor'
are denied by the officials OF the
interested companies.

Output of Goldfeld Mines.

The out put Of Gold6eld mines for
the week closing yesterday, as com
piled from figures furnished the Gold.
field News by the local mills, the
sampler aud the railroad, shows a
slight increase over that of the pre-
ceding week. The total production
treated in the camp or shipped to
outside points vas approximately
2,436 tons of a gross valuation OF
1924, 1870. No returns were secured
from the Gardner mill, nor from the
Frank plant; in the latter instance
the cause being attributed to the
fact that new machinery IS being in.
stalled. For sometime past the
management has been awaiting the
arrival Of an automatic sampler and
this week it vas landed at the plant.
The work Of installing it is now in
progress and it is hoped to have it in
operation Monday or Tuesday next.
AS soon as this result is attained the
mill will once more add its quota to
the weekly tonnage values.
At the. Columbia Sampling and ore
company $40 tons Of ore having an
average veIue Of $l48 per ton were
treated; the mill at the Combination
mine handled 200 tons Of an average
grade of $40 per ton; the New
Western Reduction company treated
4lO tons OF 1920 grade; the American
Milling company handled 80 tons Of
$50 ore; and the railroad shipped out
% cars containing S65 tons Of ore
having a gross valuation Of 1929, $50.

EDITOR BEATTY MINER:
DEAR SIR; In reply to your query,
we go north from here, ludlow
through Soda Lake, up Amargosa river
via Resting Springs and Tacopa, thence
into Ash Meadows to the Lila c mine
and on from there to Bullfrog district.
When W. will have our road com
pleted to Beatty, would be a hard ques-
ton for us to answer just now, but we
can say that it will be pushed through
as rapidly as conditions will justify.
The first so miles Of our steel is ready
for delivery, and will be on the ground
here within the next two weeks. More
will be ready by the time the first ar
rives.
Any information that 1--WE can give
you in future, from time to time, we
will gladly impart at your asking.
Yours very truly,
ToNoPAH AND TIDEwATER r. r. Co.
This is certainly an agreeable sur
prise, for it was given out by parties
interested, a very few weeks ago, that
the proposed Ludlow road would be
abandoned and that the proposed Las
Vegas road would be built at once.
This is the sequel to the efforts that
have been made by Mr.. Smith for sew
eral years to have the Santa Fe or the
Southern Pacific company and more re-
Gently the Salt Lake road assist him in
building a line to his great borax mines
in lnyo county. He pleaded and pleaded
but the big s%oulless corporations re-
peatedly turned a deaf ear to his en-
treaties. A few months ~ it was
reported that Senator Clark had de-
cided to help him, but the announce
ment had hardly been put in type when
the news was flashed over the wires
from San Francisco that Hartman had
telegraphed Mr.. Clark the significant
word quit" The Santa Fe then saw
its opportunity and made Mr.. Smith an
offer which was accepted last month
and active construction work was inn
mediately begun.
As the letter from the Tonopah and
Tidewater railroad company (Which
means F. M. SMITH states, work will
be pushed as rapidly as conditions will
justify and another railroad, making
three in all is assured for Bullfrog.

IMMENSE LOSS
 IN MARINE FIRE
SPONTANEOUS COMBUSTION ON A PIER WORKS ITS WAY INTO AN OCEAN LINER AND FIREMEN FIGHT DESPERATELY.

Boston, February 2i.-A fire, causing immense losses, broke out on pier of the Hoosac tunnel docks. Charleston, early today Its origin has not been de- termined, but it is believed to have started from spontaneous combustion.
 Five alarms brought the greater part of the apparatus of the city to the scene. The flames spread with startling rapidity, communicating with the Furness-Leyland line steamer Philadelphia, which was tied along side the pier, and in a few moments was in a mass of flames from stem to stern.
 It is feared that two of the sailors aboard have been lost. When the flames were discovered most of the crew jumped overheard. Captain Dickinson himself hanging by a rope over the boats side until he waJ assured that no one re- mained on board.
 From the Phiadelphian the flames jumped over to the steamer Dalton Hall of the Antwerp line, which was soon aflame. It is thought that the crew of the Dalton Hall escaped.
 The flames are apparently uncontrol- able and beyond the best effort of the firemen. Two fire boats responded to the alarms, but for an hour the water thrown by them had no apprecable eff feet upon the flames.
 The wharf was filled with valuable im- ported goods.
 The Philadelphan arrived here Satur- day from Liverpool. The Dalton Hall was loaded with valuable cargo and was to have sailed tomorrow. Piers and have been destroyed, and the steamers Michi- gan of the Warren line and the Martello are threatened. It is thought the loss will be nearly s1,000,OOO.
