In his report TO President A c. Wash
ington Manager p. T. Farnesworth says:
Much New Ground Ahead.
The south five hundred has developed
about anticipated, and there is much
new ground ahead of us to oe prospected
We are stll cncountering orc bodies con-
tanning the usual percentage of lead sill
YER and gold. with occasional chutes of
copper Stopping north on the seven hun
dred level shows good bodies OF lead ore
but up to date not so much copper. The
same condition prevails on the 500 and
nlso on the 900-foot level No work has
been done during the year below this
level. 1t Is the intention To prosecute de-
soon as sufficient miners can be obtained.
Miners in District Are Scarce.
We have been greatly delayed through
the entire year account of being un-
able 10 get miners This has been keenly
felt by all the propertiS In this district
For n considerable time We could scarce
ly get sufficient men to operate one shift
However, Just at present this trouble is
partially relieved The shortage of men
has materially affected the mercantile
business of the district,
Zinc Outlook Is Favorable.
We have been able to market few
thousand tons OF zine ore at only n mod
erately good price. considering It's gross
value In zinc. lead and silver. The pros
poets for greater demand for this prod
uct however seems to be better for the
future there arc a number of competi-
tors I'm the market There Is now being
perfected on tho premises a plant for
separating the zinc and lead, which, II sue
cessful, Will give us much better results"

LARGE ORDER FOR STOCK.
Local Mining Man Has Big Eastern
Demand to Fill

What la, perhaps, the largest individual
order for mining stock ever received by
local mining man was received Wednes-
cay from Boston capitalists by w. II
Tibbals. Tho order called for 10000
shares of the stock of the GlrouX Mining
company, whose properties arc alongside
OF that within the control of the Nevada
Consolidated company
When IL Is considered that the Giroux
stock Is now quoted at between S and 80
per share, the extent Of the deal can be
appreciated. and should the order be
capable of being filled. II Will be known
as the greatest deal In stock pulled off in
this vicinity for number OF years.
1t is ono OF the most healthy signs OF
the year that Boston money Is hungry
for Western mining stocks. and that hun
dreds OF thousands Of dollars are waiting
and anxious to be put into Ely proper
ties which lay despised and ignored for
Years before the world awakened 10 the

differing Views of Experts as to
Wherein tho Danger Lies.
In answer to our question as to the
speed of passenger trains, the Hon.
Martin f. Knapp, chairman Of the In
terstate Commerce Commission, says
that, within limits, the whole question
is one of conditions, and adds: The
rate of speed entirely ssfe on one line
might be positively dangerous on an

Ripley of the Santa Fe Road-who re-
Gently caused a special train to run DO
tween Los Angeles and Chicago In rec
ord-breaking ume-says that the only
difference In a fast train compared
with a slow train IN that the fast
train is composed OF fewer cars than
the slow train, and that, having none
of the dead weight represented by ex-
press and mail cars of the slow trains
between the engine and the passenger
cars, the passengers on the shorter
train are more liable to Injury In case
of accident President Wilcox Of the
Delaware and Hudson Road thinks
there Is a tendency to operate freight
trains much too rapidly. though his
road has a record Of not having killed
passenger during the last eleven
years. President Underwood OF the
Erie road compares a fast train to
skyscraper, saying that a man wh'
falls from the top Of such building
receives injuries no greater than doe
