THEATRICAL PEOPLE
ENROUTE TO AMERICA

NEW YORK, Oct. PA remark
able group of operate and dramatic
stars, some of whom are under the
management of Oscar Hammerstein,
are on the way from Paris to New
York.
The group included Miss Mary Gar
den, Signor Ermete Novelli, Signora
Novelli, Signor Ancona, M. d'Artaux,
Charles Dalmores, Charles Gilbert,
Misses Jane and Val Gerville-Reache
and Miss Zudmilla Seegris.
Mary Garden has about sixteen
trunks of the finest costumes ever
made in Paris. She said she was de-
lighted at the prospect of appearing
again before an American audience.
host of friends were at the station
to see her Off They gave her rous-
ing cheer as the train pulled out.
Signor Novelli, the great Italian
tragedian, says that he expects to
score his greatest success in the
United States with a hitherto unpub-
lished drama by Mrs. Russell, enti-
tied Dante. The four acts give
four striking episodes in the life of
the poet
In the first act Dante, at 10, meets
Beatrice during the festival of Sc
lendi Maggie. In the second act, the
time of which is laid during the wars
of the Guelphs and the Ghibellines,
occurs the death of Beatrice in the
church at San Giovanni. In the
third act, which is of great dramatic
power, Dante has failed to realize his
dream of Italian unity and seeks ref
uge in Ravenna. The fourth act por-
trays the death of the poet just as
he has finished the portrayal of Par
adise in the Divine Comedy"
Signor Novelli is enthusiastic in
praise of this drama by an American
woman. He said that he would pro-
duce it in Paris when he returned
next May. He also brings with him
to America a full Shakespearean rep
ertory.

OUTLOOK IN P|OCHE
PLEASEs GEO. MORGAN
MUCH ORE IN MINES OF DIS
TRICT-MAY OPEN CAFE
THERE.

George w. Morgan, who with
Al Popejoy conducts the Mon
tana cafe here, returned to Sail
Lake from a business trip to Phoebe
Thursday morning. While there he
took occasion to make a trip of in
spection to several properties as the
guest of Ed f. Prudential. He
was highly pleased with what he saw
and he expressed the opinion last
evening that the camp was going to
be the next one to attract wide at
tention.
''l'll tell you right now" said Mr..
Morgan, that the mines of that camp
have certainly got the ore and lots of
it. The trip with Mr.. Prudential
was an eye-opener to me and | am
glad that | went down there. In adj
dition to looking over the mines
sized up the town with an idea of
opening up a big cafe there, and
while reached the conclusion that it
is a little early to establish such a
place as | contemplated, there is no
doubt in my mind that the place will
boom before long. Quite a number
of the big mines are clustered right
around the town while there is a ire
mendouSly flcn country WITHIN fa-
dius of fifteen miles of the place,
every particle of which will be tribu-
tary to the main town of Phoebe.
Splendid producing mines are found
for long distances around the camp
and new mines are rapidly being
brought to the heavy producing stage
1t all looks good to me. There are a
large number of men employed in
that region now and there will be a
great many more during the next few
months.
Mr.. Prudential has some mighty
fine properties in that section and he
stands to make great fortune there.
He is one of the biggest hearted men
in the country and he deserves all
the good fortune that is sure to come
to him as the result of his lifetime
work in the district"

HAMILTON SAYS ELY
IS NATURAL GATEWAY
s. T.. HUNT DECLARES MINERS
WANT TO SHIP THEIR ORE
THIS WAY.

Hamilton people would haul ev-
cry pound of their ore through Ely
il the roads were such that it could
be DONE" said S. +. Hunt, who came
down from Hamilton Saturday night
and who will return to that district
tomorrow morning.
THE producers are handicapped by
an insufficient number of freighting
teams. and have their ore stacked up
in sacks, waiting a chance to get it
to the railroad The Bamberger peo-
ple have 1000 sacks of fine lead ores
ready to be hauled but they cannot
move it.
There is plenty of ore in the
mines that is not being brought to
the surface, because there is no use
in doing it until it can be transport
ed TO the railroad. All of the mines
that are working have plenty of ore
to ship.
THE sentiment of the entire camp
is in favor of the haul by way of Ely
for several reasons. When the Ne
vada Northern road is completed to
the Veteran mine there will be a
three of four mile cutoff which will
put the road ten miles closer to Ham,
ilton than Eureka now is.
ELY is the natural outlet for the
ores of that district. The mines of
the entire district with but one i'm
portant exception are owned by Ely
capital and are operated by Ely peo-
pie. They naturally want to have

ing is begun to that point from Ham,

from that section. Ely is the county
seat. too, and that naturally brings
many here who want to transact
other than legal business here

GREENE CANANEA- TO
CLOSE ALL PLANTS
LOW PRICE OF COPPER HITS BIG
MEXICAN PRODUCER A
BODY BLOW.

A private message received in this
city Yesterday gives the information
that the Greene Cananea Copper COM
pany management has determined
upon a complete shutdown of its
mines, concentration and smelter at
Cananea. This action will mean the
closing down of all but one or two
other of fourteen operating proper
ties in the Cananea district. Over
5000 men will be thrown out of en-
ployment. This number is in addi-
ton to something over 1000 men let
out from the Greene Cananea mines
during September and this month.
The Greene Cananea management
entered upon a policy of curtailment
of mine and smelter production in
September. At that time the mines
were producing about 5000 tons of
ore per day, 1900 tons of which went
to the concentration. When the cur
tailment policy was announced by the
management it was stated that no
complete shutdown was then contem-
plated, but that the copper market
situation might become such as to
make this extreme action necessary.
The Greene Cananea smelter is at this
time equal to production of between
seven and eight million pounds of
copper per month. It's bullion pro-
duction cost is about II cents per
pound, aside from contraction.
freight and other charges. With
copper quoted at 12A cents it is
therefore apparent that the company
could not at this time produce with
profit for immediate sale and it has
evidently been determined the part
of wisdom to close down rather than
stack up surplus product hiding a
higher price for the metal. Effect of
the closedown will be severe on the
city of Cananea, which has a popu-
lation of 10000, the latter number
ing about 5000 Americans, all de-
pendent for subsistence upon the
mining industry in the district. The
Greene Cananea closedown will be
the first complete cessation on the
part of big copper producer, ANAL
gamated with which 1t is in a manner
affiliated, having only partially closed
down to this time. Greene Cananea
stock closed Saturday at 1913, to
which low figure it has steadily de-
clined from around $40 in January.
The loss sustained on outstanding
shares is to this time above $40,000,-
900. Amalgamated, which is now
quoted around SAT, has sustained a
loss on outstanding shares of over
$50, 100000.

ORE is ATTACHED
AT GOLDFIELD MINE

GOLDFIELD, Oct. 27.-The ore
on hand and the plant of the Nevada
Goldfield Reduction company was at
tached Saturday by the Mohawk
Com bination Leasing company, a cor
poration operating a lease on the Mo-
hawk. The leasing company claims
$25, 900 for ore not settled for.
Checks of the company for 81 5000
were turned down yesterday by the
Cook bank and it is understood to be
heavily involved. Failure to get re-
turns from the smelter companies is
ascribed as the cause. Shipments
from the reduction company for the
first ten days have averaged 400 tons
daily.

FLORENCE l.. q n. SHAFT
NOW DOWN $40 FEET

THE Florence Leasing and Mining
company's shaft is down $50 feet, the
last ten feet being in ledge matter that
shows the near presence of a big vein
that dips toward the shaft from the
west. A station has been cut on the
5O0-foot level and a drift has been
started to explore the find. At the same
time sinking will be continued and in
another twenty feet. or less. 1t is very
likely that the vein will come into the
shaft. Judging from the mineralized
character of the rock encountered at $40
feet in the shaft, some very promising
developments may be looked for within
the next week or ten days.
The upraise that is being put in on
the ore from the 215-foot level is now
up 20 feet and has encountered an ex-
tremely rich streak that will probably
assay into the thousands. 1t is not a
new strike but an enrichment of the
vein that the management has been fol-
lowing in upraises from both the 3S5
and 2S5-foot levels for some time, and
from which considerable ore has been
shipped. Whether this rich streak will
prove to be anything more han a
bunch of high grade ore. such as has
been encountered before. remains TO be
proven by further developments.
