That the judgment Of Louis D. Gordon presi-

clearly demonstrated by developments Of the
last two days. Friday morning two stringers,

Of eighty three feet One stringer is seven
inches wide and shows big colors. The second
stringer also pans well and all indications in

ROUND MOUNTAIN MOVES
Mines of District Are Going Steadily
Ahead With Development

The Round Mountain Nugget made
the following statement concerning the
progress of mining companies in the
Round Mountain district:
The Sunnyside mine has tapped a ledge at the
250-foot level This is over i've feet wide. and
hanging and foot walls are clearly defined at the
200 level, and the ledge has been exposed by
drifts for number of feet with good results.
The vein dips at an angle Of 80 degrees at the
250 level, being about what II was at 100 feet.
This latest strike OF the Sunnyside is without
doubt the greatest thing to happen for the
permanency Of Round Mountain. The depth Of
the district is proved, and the rich finds made
at the surface are thus shown 10 be new indi-
cations of the wonderful deposits below.
President Davis stated that the mill viii
be running within a few weeks at the most.
Every thing at the mill is in readiness for an i'm
mediate start water is turned on.
Within thirty days the big stamps viii com
mence dropping, and. it is stated. that nc stop
ping viii be necessary, at least until the capa-
city OF the mill Is increased. A present there
Is 500 tons Of ore on the dump, and enough
more will be taken out in the natural course OF
its present capacity for some time. II is the
intention Of the Round Mountain Mining Com
pany 10 increase the size Of its mill and put in
more stamps without delay.
The Round Mountain Combination holdings
consist OF sixty odd acres and ad1oin the famous
Sunuyside and Round Mountain Mining Company.
Although effort has as yet been made 70
develop the strong ledges which known to
traverse the territory. the Combination has
tablished a record for fits productions from the
big placer beds which have been opened on one
Of the claims. The Wilson lease on the Blue
Jay Claim OF the Combination Company made a
wonderful showing during the short time IL was
worked last season. and Mr.. Wilson is preparing
10 put in gasoline power machine This
year and work the rich placer beds thoroughly.
Under the new control the management OF the
Round Mountain Combination intends inaugur-
ating a thorough and systematic course Of de-
velopment work. Shafts will be sunk al differ
ent points along the outcroppings OF the big
ledge and there is little doubt in their minds
thar something Of sensational nature viii be
revealed when the property is well opened up.
While Albert :. Watson. president of the
Round Mountain Bullion Mining Company. was
here with J. ]. Mckay. arrangements were made
for development. Work has begun two con-
tracts. one on the Albatross No and the other
on AlbatrOss No 2. The contract on No. was
let 20 W. 7. Mattleg and calls for a vertical
shaft $50 feet deep. while the one on No. 5 is
for a 1O0-fOot vertical shaft. On the Byrne lease
on the Bullion property work Is progressing
finely and values are showing stronger in the
ledge. The AlbatrOss claims give promise Of
developing a good mine. The property adjoins

STOP AMERICANS FISHING.
Russians Board Yankee Bark and
Seize All the Ships Papers.

San Francisco, July II. = The bark
entine S. N. Castle, Capt. Petersen,
arrived here yesterday from the cod
fishing grounds off the coast of Slbe-
ria and reported that the vessel had
been boarded by the Russian gunboat
Mandiur, her ships papers taken and
warned to stay thirty miles from the
shore, under threat of being contls-
Gated. and the officers and crew taken
to Petropavlovsk in irons.
Capt. Petersen stated that on June
10 he was cod fishing in the Okhotsk
sea, eight miles from the shore, in
company with the schooner j. u,
Spreckels, the barkentines Fremont
and City of Papete, all from San Fran
cisco, when the Manjur hove in sight.
The commanding officer, said Capt.
Petersen, boarded the Castle, seized
not only the ships clearance papers,
but all of Capt. Pedersen's private pa
pers and his masters commission and
certificate. Capt. Petersen remon-
strated declaring that his vessel was
outside of the three-mile limit, and
therefore he was violating no law.
The Russian commander, however,
stated that no fishing would be allow.
ed within thirty miles Of the shore,
and gave the S. N. Castle and the 9th
er vessels seven days to get beyond
that limit.

Berlin, July 17.-From six to twelve

BEAUTIFUL BOUQUET FOR EACH
OF DEAD AND INJURED FROM
YAMAMOTO.

Boston, July 1.-THE bodies of six
of the victims of the explosion on the
battleship Georgia Monday have been
claimed by relatives and sent home
from the United States naval hospital
at Chelsea. Two more bodies will be
sent to-day. The body of the ninth
victim of the disaster, Seaman Edward
F. Walsh of Lynn. who died yesterday
afternoon, still lies in the naval hospi-
tai.
Of the other twelve men who faced
death in the turret of the battleship
and who now lie in the naval hospital
it is possible that two may not sur
vive the night.
In Serious Condition.
Five others are in serious condl-
ton, with strong hopes that three OF
them may recover, while the rest OF
the injured are we'll on the way to full
recovery.
No word of complaint of pain comes
from any of the sufferers, but fire.
quently from the burned and swollen
lips is whispered a question as to how
"the other fellows" are getting along
At the head of each cot in the naval
hospital stands a bouquet OF flowers
sent yesterday by Admiral 4amamoto
of the Japanese navy.
Not Due to Careiessness.
Washington, July lit is said at
the navy department that it is eX-
tremely improbable that the accident
on the battleship Georgia resulted
from carelessness or lack of precau-
ton on the part of the personnel OF
the ship. A short time ago a thorough
inspection was made of every detail
OF the Georgia's ordnance by Com
mander Schofield, one of the most
expert of the ordnance officers OF the
navy. This inspection included the
handling of the guns and mechanism
and ammunition by the sailors. 1t was
found that the ships company was et-
ficient at all points and it was certain
that they were following closely the
firing regulations in every essential
detail.
Most Logical Theory.
In the absence of any other plausi-
BILE explanation the officials here are
disposed to give consideration to the
theory advanced by some of the
Georgia's officers, that the powder
was fired accidentally by a clot OF SCOT
which came floating down smoldering
from the ships smoke pipe and settled
by chance into the open scuttle on
ton of the turret, alighting directly on
the fifty-pound bag of smokeless pow
der in the arms of the leader at the
breech of the gun.
