GAR OF ORE IS SHIPPED, VALUE
 sl,O00,00O
Richest Train Load of 0reI Ever Sent Out of Any Mining Camp Left Goldfield Last
 Week.

The richest shipment of ere ever sent out from a mining camp will leave Goldfield this morning, and will be in San Francisco in twentyfour hours, save the Goldfield Chronicle. It comprises fifty tons of jewel rock" from the Hayes 6 Mon nette lease on the Mohawk, valued at s1,000,0o0, and goes by Wells-Fargo express, with six armed guards, in charge of Messenger E. W. Haffey. c. H. Hayes, of the leasing firm will accompany it, and the Mohawk Mining company will send two experts, B. M. Walker and George B. Church, who will watch proceedings from the time the ore leaves Goldfield until the sam bling is completed to their satisfac- tion, and the check of the Selby smelI- CT, to which it is consigned, is ac- cepted by the lessees.
 From o'clock this morning until dusk a score of men were engaged in removing this ere from the vaults in the basement of the Nixon block to the big four horse wagons of the Tod dard brothers, on which it was loaded and sent to the depot under guard. One by one the sacks of precious rock were carried up the steps, each man being watched until his burden had been laid down and tallied. Down in the basement there was great actiF- ity. The sacks were pulsed out from the vault and overhauled, and when ever one of the canvas bags showed the least sign of decrepitude, the con- tents were immediately transferred to new sack. Several of the sacks had routed from the moisture of the vaults, and the contents were scattered over the floor of the basement and vault The rich rock was swept up with brooms. Both Hayes and Monnette were there and little of value escaped.
 This lot of ore is the product, in three months, of the fiat streakss in the Hayes-Monnette lease on the Mo hawk. Besides this princely fortune, they have taken out three and one half millions since the ore was first encountered on the 16th day of April. 1906.
 iha express rate on ore from Gold field to San Francisco is sS per hun dred weight, total of sS.O00 for the shipment of fiton tons. The express company takes all ehanoes against robbery or accident, and is accounta- ble for every sack which was delivered to it's agents. Armed men rode on every wagon from the vaults to the depot, and armed guards watched the treasure throughout the night
 In the lot were twenty sacks which came from the jewel box" stope be- low the 220 level, which produced ore worth 0,000 a ton These twenty sacks, containing 125 pounds each, were valued at S60,00o. They were filled with the richest gold ore ever shippd from g mine.
 In the Sub-State Bank and Trust company is another similar lot of this same high grade rock, piled upon the floor and on the top of the bank vault. There are not So many pounds of it, quite, but it is equally as rich as the ore which has just been loaded, and there is fully thirty tons there, be- longing to the Frances Mohawk Min ing and Leasing company.
 The big leases on the Mohawk all expire on the 7th day of this month, The first ore struck was dug up on the 10th day of April, two days be- fore the great earthquake and fire which devastated San Francisco. Since then the aggregate output from the three acres or less of ground which was worked by the lessees has amounted to close to ss,O00,000. On the Mohawk No 1 claim nineteen leases are in operation which have yet several months to run. The company has it's own shaft down 400 feet on the Mohawk No. 2 and is connected with the Hayes -Monnette, Frances-Mo- hawk and other leases.
