MAKING READY
FOR BIG WORK
WILL GET ORE TO 100
TON CONCENTRATOR WHICH Is
TO START ON SHOSHONE PROP
ERTIES IN THE SPRING.

F. C. Williams, president and gem
eral manager of the st. Lawrence
Mining company and the Adirondack
Mining company of Shoshone, New,
arrived last evening from Salt Lake
on his way to the mines.
When asked as to progress at the
Mr.. Williams stated that
their tunnel was in 500 feet, prac-
tically all in the vein. Holes from
ten to fifty feet deep all along the
vein, extending u miles, have thor
oughly proved the extent and value of
the ore, which is a silver-lead propo-
sition. Average assays of the high
grade ore show 60 to 20 ounces sill
yer and so per cent lead. Concen-
trating ore goes 5 ounces silver and
25 per cent lead.
The mines are situated on a noun
tain adjoining Mount Wheeler, the
highest in the state, and the board
ing houses, ETC., are at an elevation
of 1O,400 feet. The tunnel mouth is
about 10,200 feet altitude. The vein
shows plainly at the top of the noun
tain at height of 5000 feet. Tim
ber in plenty is to be had for all pur-
poses.
Half & Colwell, engineers, of Ely,
have just completed a survey for a
tramway IA miles long to mill
site 1000 feet lower, where 100
ton concentrating plant will be erect
ed in the coming spring.
The properties have been in process
of opening up during the past two
years, and when the concentrator is
ready for operation they will be in
position to ship large quantities OF
concentrates regularly.

members of the congress. Beside i'm
mediate features of Robinson district
in which the congress will find,
should it determine to come here, a
great deal of vast interest, the addi-
tional fact remains that from Ely
the mining men of the congress will
find available side trips into the
great gold country of the state and
into the lead silver camps, such as
famous old Hamilton, which now
looks as if it would next year be en-
joying a great deal of new fame, and
into other districts of renown.
Assuredly Ely City will become
busy with preparations for the royal
entertainment of the congress and for
the making of arrangements for it to
see Nevada the minute word is re-
ceived that it has determined upon
coming here next year, decision
that would not only mean advantage
to the members of the congress but
large advantage as well for this dis
trict and all of Nevada.

Number Of Ambitious Cities in
the Race...Many Mining Men
Assembled in Joplin.

JOPLIN, Mo-, Nov. 1.-THE Amer
lean Mining Congress convened here
this morning in it's eleventh annual
session. After short formal session
and the transaction of routine bust
ness adjournment was taken until to-
morrow, when the real work of the

ing of Vivian, Ariz., was the first of

the honor of entertaining the next an
nual congress. Spokane, Wash, Ely
City, New, Los Angeles, Reno, and
Columbus, o., are the ambitious cities
now actively in the race. The candi
dacy of Columbus is In the interest
of movement to make the congress
yet more national and international
than it has been heretofore. Previous
have been held in the west.

Hurriedly Called Meeting
of Citizens Takes
Spirited Action.
FUNDS ARE PLEDGED
Free Special Trains for Members
of Congress and Adequate Ac.
cOmmOdatiOnS for Sessions.

A meeting of citizens of Ely City
was held last evening at the Steptoe
hotel with result that the telegram
sent to Hon. Richard A. Riepe, as
sistant secretary of the American
Mining Congress, which convened
yesterday at Joplin, Mo-, for which
city Mr.. Riepe departed from Ely last
week.
The meeting held last night was
called by Frank G. Armstrong, who
was chosen chairman. Owing to the
fact that the advisability of sending
Mr.. Riepe a telegram setting forth
plainly the desire that the next ses-
sion of the American Mining Con-
gress should be held here, did not
occur until late in the day the call
for the meeting did not come until
in the evening and attendance was
therefore not as large as it would
have been had there been more time
to get the call around.
Whatever lacked in attendance at
the meeting, however, was made up
in enthusiasm on the part of those
who were present. Following the
naming of Mr. Armstrong as chair
man, H. r. Plate was chosen secre-
tary of the temporary organization,
when the business of the meeting was
Immediately taken up.
Mr.. Armstrong stated the purpose
of the call to be to consider arrange
ments necessary to extending invita-
tion to the congress to assemble here
next year and to frame telegram
for Immediate transmission to the
body in the event it was determined
that the city desired the assemblage
and could arrange to entertain it
properly.
In very few minutes it was as

certained that there would be no lack
of funds to carry out such plans as
might be made and the telegram was
drawn up, passed by unanimous
vote and ordered sent at once. 1t
will reach Mr.. Riepe on the floor of
the congress this morning and will
be read to the national body of min
ing men when place for the next
meeting comes up for consideration.
In the meantime it may be banked on
that Mr.. Riepe will be busy pressing
the claims of Ely City and Nevada
for the honor of entertaining the
congress, in which work the telegram
giving the promise of the extension of
courtesies and facilities will be of no
small aid.
Mr.. Riepe had in nina effort to Sc
cure the next session of the congress
for this district when he left for Jop
lin and has no doubt already made
progress with his work to that end.
The telegram will therefore represent
a more important aid than otherwise,
inasmuch as it will give those he has
interested in his efforts full assur
ance that the city asking the con-
gress is ready to prepare for its
proper entertainment and has the get
up and public spirit to do so thor
oughly.
Other cities will doubtless be in
the race for the honor of entertain
ing the congress next year but it is
safe to say that none of them will be
able to present more attractive bid in
real worth than Ely City and the Rob-
inson district. The immense wealth
of ore here and the enormous reduc-
ton plants, the biggest in the world,
which will next year be drawing
heavy tonnage from the mines, alone
represent splendid inducement to

Churn Drill Man Will Operate in Kel
win District for Guggenheims.

Ed NJ Stewart will leave today for
Kelvin, Arizona, south of Globe,
where he will conduct drilling opera
tions on copper property being devei-
oped in that vicinity, lately brought
into considerable prominence.
Mr. Stewart came to this district
about year ago to take charge as
superintendent of churn drill work
on properties of the Cumberland Ely

ing his work here he made an en-
viable reputation for thoroughness
and vigor of management. In the

Only Rest and Quiet Will Save the
German Emperor From Dan

LONDON, Nov. 1.-THE reason
for the retirement of Emperor Will
lam to the Isle of Wight after his
visit to King Edward is that he may
be treated for serious ear malady
with which he has long been af-
flicted.
The trouble is irritated by worry
and the physician who has been treat
ing the emperor has been baffled be-
cause of this fact. The arrangements
for his treatment are taken to indi-
cate that the trouble is of serious
nature and that only quiet and rest
will abrogate the necessity of an OPP
eration.

M. f. Rickard, one of the propri-

suddenly i'll last evening. Mr.. Rick

with a tendency toward pneumonia.

There was good attendance at the

Two inspectors in the employ of

have been stationed in Nevada for
the purpose of gathering evidence
against the Southern Pacific company
for violation of the safety appliance
laws, says the Wells Herald. The in
spectors are ex-railroad train men,
and they have been recognized by
crews running out of Sparks. They
openly take notes on the numbers of
cars they believe should not be al
lowed on the road because of defec-
tive equipment.
