After we had awakened all those in
the rear car, the robher told US 10 pass

me that if I could get into the second

then summon the other trainmen.

HOW 1T WAS DONE.
Pullman Conductor Tells the Story of
the Robbery

St. Louis. Nov. "a special to the
Post-Dispatch from Armstrong, Mo-.
SAYS:
Pullman Conductor Searson made
the following statement after the train
arrived here this morning:
When the robber walked up the
steps Of the rear sleeper as we pulled
out of Slater and pointed two revol-
vers at my head. I could do nothing
but comply with his demands He was
tall and heavily masked. He wore a
long black overcoat. He quietly told
me to go ahead of him and with the
negro pOrters assistance get all the
passengers money. I told Wood the
fellow evidently meant business and
the trembling porter followed me- II
was amusing to see the faces of some
of the passengers when we told them
what was wanted. Some of them pro-
tested but when they saw the two re-
vOlvers pointed at them they meekl :
complied

ing that each member of this commit

of verifying the results of the late cleo

The resolution also said:
while we regret profoundly that our
candidate for governor has himself
fallen a victim to the rancor of the
powerful public enemies against whose
enormities his candidacy was a revolt.

results entailed on the people. OF these

THE NGUISH OF
DESERT THIRST

With death staring him in the face
and without food or water John Ore of
Wonder has passed through an X
perience the like of which is rarely
found in this section of Nevada.
Tramping over the desert for three
days, lost and without his bearings,
weak from the lack of food and water,
and partly unconscious, Mr.. Orr reached
Fairview, early Wednesday morning,
where he received the treatment his
critical condition called for. His story
of the thrilling adventure through
which he passed is, perhaps, best told
by himself, and to a Miner reporter MI.
Orr thus related his experience: II
started out from Wonder the morning
of the 18th of July to do a little pros
pecting work and travelled all day over
the hills around the country adjacent to
the Queen and Darcy property. When
evening came and started back | had
lost my bearings, and being weak from
hunger, took the trail | supposed l had
come over, but which l found was not
the right one. For hours | walked and
finally came to the divide, when
thought / must be nea the town Of
Wonder. That night l slept on the
desert and in the morning l agar
started to find the town of Wonder
All day | tramped through the broiline
sun without food or water, and carried
a rock in my mouth all the time. One
time | came to a hole where a coyote
had dug for water and got a mouthfu
of muddy water. The second day
was out | thought my time had come
l was very weak and the heat of the
sun was terrific. When | awoke l saw
the lights of Fairview and started t
walk to the lights and was so weak
could not travel, so l againg laid dowr
to rest. / finally reached here in
weak condition and could not talk"

CARSON MINT
TO BUY BULLION

X. X. Colcord, assayer IN charge of
the u. S. mint in this city, says the
Carson Daily Appeal, has received
orders from the director of the mint,
approved by the Secretary of the
Treasury, authorizing and directing
him to purchase bullion where the sill
yer in such deposits does not exceed in
value the proportion of one part silver
to ten parts gold, and to pay for the
same at the current rate fixed by the
mint bureau. This will admit of bullion
being purchased at the local mint of a
much lower value per ounce than
formerly, and it is a distinct help to
many small producers who have had to
dispose of their bullion to the refin-
cries. At the present time the mint is
paying a trifie more than the market
rate for all the silver purchased by it.

H L
TO SILVER PEAK

The Gazette of last Monday says that
Reno has been entertaining some OF
the most prominent mining men in
Nevada during the past few days.
Yesterday Martin L. Efinger Of Tono-
pah, the man who put through the
sale of the Blair mines at Silver Peak,
was in the city, leaving this morning
for San Francisco to buy materials for
the mine and the railroad which is
being built to Silver Peak. W. G.
Douglas, the Tonopah operator, left
this afternoon for Carson after a brief
stay in the city and at Tahoe. Robert
Stewart, mayor of Sodaville, is in the
city on business and from Ramsay
have come Jack Reynolds, Mark G.
Bradshaw, R. R. Robinson and W. W.
Elkins. This morning Milton M.
Detch and party came in from the
Sierras where they have been camping.
''Work is being carried on at Silver
Peak just as fast as men can be
obtained" said Mr.. Efinger yesterday.
''Six miles of the roadbed for the
Tonopah railroad extension has been
graded and as soon as sufficient men
and teams and the necessary materials
can be obtained steel will be laid. The
mines are to be developed in the most
thorough manner. They contain al
body of ore and will un'
doubtedly be among the great pro
ducers of the world in a short while.
The Silver Peak group was purchases
several months ago by a Pittsburg syn
dictate for $3.50, 900. The deal was mad
through Mr.. Effinger. R. R. Robinson
and w. w. Elkins, who came in iron
Ramsay, are leasers operating upol
the Rather No. 2 claim. They hav'
sunk so feet and while they are not il
ore they have been offered $4,000 TO
their lease which they promptly re
fused. This morning they left TO
Lassen county, California, where the,
will rest for several days. 1T is
difficult matter to get lumber int
Ramsay" said Mr.. Reynolds. "W'
ordered five carloads several week
ago and it has not been received yet
The demand seems to be so heavy tina
the mills cannot supply it, Accord
ing to Nh. Reynolds, who is intereste
in the Ramsay townsite, the camp
bigger and better than ever.
