Fifty Teams
Hauling Lumber

Fifty teams Of from four to ten
horses each are on the road from
the Snake Valley saw mill, load
ed with lumber for the Nevada
Consolidated Copper company 5
mines at Copper Flat. Freight
teams have been scarce in the
county this fall and the mining
companies have had considerah bic
trouble in getting sufficient lunl-
Der delivered at the mines 10
keep the carpenters busy.
Supt. Gray of the Nevada Con.
Co. saw that if his company was
30 have sufficient lumber to carry
on the building mapped out at
the mines during the coming
winter, il would be necessary to
increase very materially the
number Of teams engaged i'll the
hauling, and accordingly sent
orders To different points iii Utah
for all the teams that could he
got.
The heavy snow storm that has
been raging this week will seri-
ously retard, if it does not COM
pei them to discontinue, the
hauling of lumber from the
Snake Valley mill for the re
nainder of the winter.

Plans OF Immense Plant Shown to a
News Representatiye..'NilI Cover
Twenty-Five Acres Of Ground

The smelter sight Is literally
covered with survey stakes, and
with some one at hand to explain
matters, the plan Of the immense
plant becomes plain even Ia a
novice.
The first building, far up the
mountainside, will be the ore
bins into which the ore will be
dumped from the ears. Then
comes the concentrator and after
that the roaster. Everything is
SO arranged that it will not be
necessary to handle Il pound of
the ore with shovel after it
leaves the mines. 1t would be
difficult, indeed, to find any
where in the country site bet
ter adapted for the purpose than
the one selected by the company.
The buildings for the first unit
Of the plant will cover space Of
more than ten acres and when
all the units have been added,
in accordance with the present
plans, more than twenty-five
acres of ground will have been
rooted in to carry on the work of
this immense plant.

Two Suits Against

John Weber was made the de-
fendant in two suits filed in the
District Court this week. ChaS.

ceased filed suit with Clerk Old
field for $3.50 and costs Of suit,
and Jacob Shallenbarger filed
suit Wednesday for Sl251 with
interest on Sl05O from April lSt,
1901 at 6 per cent, and interest on
S2O7 from June 9th, 1902 at (
per cent.
The complaint in both suits
sets forth that :. n. Holmes,
prior 10 his death, was Il part
own6r in the Columbia, Last
Hope, Santa Claus and Compen-
sation mining claims, situated in
the Robinson mining district;
that he transferred the title to
the claims to John Weber with
out any consideration, for tie
purpose of defra uding his credit
ors, and chat the purported sale
of his interests in the mining
claims was not bona fide.
Chas. S. Chandler is attorney
for the Plaintiffs and it is under-
stood that q. S. Harrington has
been retained by Mr.. Weber.
The cases will probably come to
trial at the December term oi

Heaviest Snow Storm in Years

The most severe snow storm
that has visited this section in a
number Of years commenced
early Monday morning and lasted
until Wednesday evening. Only
nine inches of the beautiful fell
in Ely, but on the surrounding
mountains the fall was quite
heavy.
Traffic between Ely and the

coaches carrying the mails are
from ten to sixteen hours late
in delivering the mails and 1t Is
only with the greatest difficulty
that they manage to get through
at all.
A telephone message from Eu-

more than two feet of snow fell
in that town, and at Hamilton the
snow fall was even greater.

The l.OOO-tons concentratol
and smelter which the Nevada
Consolidated Copper company
will commence building within
the next month has been the
theme for many a lengthy dis
cussion here during the past two
months. 1t is not at all inire-
Quent that we hear men speak OF
the erection Of the proposed con-
centrator and smelter as il it
could be done in a week OF Il
months time at the out
side.
In order to fully comprehend
he amount Of work that will be
required and the material that
will be used IN It's construction,
it is necessary for one to visit the
site. Through the courtesy of
Supt. +. +. Gray and Chief Eli
gineer |. J Cox, the writer Was
permitted to examine the plans
of the plant on the grounds.
Mr.. Cox, after showing us the
drawings Of the different struc-
lures, took us over the grounds
and pointed out the eAct spot
where each is to be erected.

ence yesterday for the purpose Of ar
ranging definite opposition to the
proposed legislative act to change the
manner Of the apportionment of State
school funds, which will result in loss
OF S250,000 on the income now derived
for the support of the local schools.
Roncovieri has prepared q statement
in which arguments are advanced to
show that the amendment would work
hardship on the schools and teachers
of San Francisco. 1t was decided that
Roncovieri and Superintendent Lang
don will personally oppose the measure
before the Legislature.
The Board of Education yesterday Is
sued circular, in which 1t is recon-
nended that principals of grammar
and high schools arrange to allow their
upper classes or parts of upper classes
to visit manufacturing and business es-
tablishments. The circular says that
this may be made an important ad-
junct of the school work, and
the cooperation of principals is re-
quested. Principals are asked to SUBJ

CORBIN MAKES
STRONG DENIAL
Secretary of Loan Asso-
citation Says He Never Mis-
appropriated Any Money

The officers and directors of the Con-
tinental Building and Loan Association
scoff at the very suggestion Of any
crooked work on the part of its seere-
tary and general manager, William
Corbin. All are greatly angered by the
story that Corbin used nearly $250.000
of the concerns funds to further his
own interests. The directors will make
an investigation to-day ana issue a
statement to all the stockholders.
Corbin hints at conspiracy on the
part of certain persons who. he claims.
are working to undermine him. He
posted q bulletin in the office of the
association on California street yester-
day denying all the charges and in
forming the public that he had invited
counts to-day and then make known
their findings to all the interested par
ties.
II regard the attack as a personal
affront," said Corbin, ''and 1 want the
directors and everybody interested in
the matter to see for themselves. / do
not care about going into the details
of the case for the present, at least.
for then I would be simply giving my
word against that of my accusers. and
it would be of no benefit for the rea-
son that many people are skeptical and
want to see for themselves.
Politics and underhand work lie at
the bottom of the whole scheme. / have
incurred the enmity of certain persons
and now they are seeking revenge. The
directors have kept tab on the books
of the association right along, and if
there was anything wrong with my ac-
counts they would not tolerate me any
longer That stands to reason"
Gavin McNab, attorney for the Con-
tinental Building and Loan Association.
corroborates the statement made by
Corbin. McNab was not connected
with the institution when the first
shortages are alleged to have been dis
covered, but since that time. he says.
there has been nothing wrong with
Corbin's accounts. McNab refused to
give out any official figures. declaring
there was nothing to say till the board
of directors should have finished its in
vestigation.

Every mother possesses information

Too often this is never impaired or is
