MORE TROUBLE BREWING
IN LABOR CIRCLES

At present it looks as though Gold
field is to have more labor troubles.
The w. F. of M. has made de-
mand that the watchmen employed at
the mines shall be depOsed and their
places given to Federation men.
The Western Federation of Miners
claims jurisdiction over all men en-
ployed in or about the mines. The
Mine Owners association, on the
other hand, claims that the watch
men are special employees hired to
guard the companys interests and to
report any dereliction, not only on
the part of the miners, but on the
part of foremen and superintendent
and employees generally, and there
fore should not be under the juris-
diction and control of any labor Or
ganization.
At the mass meeting of the miners
held two weeks ago, action was post
poned at the request of the Mine
Owners association, who requested
that all disputes, including the ques-
ton of jurisdiction over the watch
men, be referred to a permanent
grievance committee to be appointed
by the miners and the mine owners.
The vote today shows that the
miners are not in favor of the griev-
ance committee and have determined
to force the issue.

STRUCK FINE ORE
BY MERE ACCIDENT.

The merest accident was RESPONSE
BILE for the opening up of big body
of high-grade ore the first of the
week on the Codd lease on the st.
Ives, says the Goldfield Review. For
the past several weeks there have
been regular shipments from the
lease to the sampler, but all from
around the 200-foot level Last Mon
day afternoon a boulder from near
the top of the shaft became loosened
and fell crashing toward the bottom.
In doing so it caught for amoment on
a projecting rock at the 65-foot level,
and before it again sped on its down
ward course it had torn big hole
in the shaft.
Shortly after the superintendent at
the mine went down to make an ex-
animation to ascertain the amount OF
damage done. He stopped for time
at the IS, and in looking over the
damage discovered what appeared to
him to be very good ore. Some OF
it was taken to the top and assayed,
and a return of nearly $500 was re-
ceiyed. Then a more minute exam
nation followed, and it was discov-
cred that there were in sight eight
inches of the rich stuff.
Immediately the scene of action
was changed to the new find, and the
work of cutting station was COM
menced. This work Is progressing
rapidly and in few days Manager
Codd expects to begin stopping out the
material from the new find and sack
ing it. There is no way of telling at
present what the extent of the find
will be, but the officials of the COM
pany express the belief that good
sized body will be taken out.

SEVEN TROUGHS MINE
IS SOLD FOR $67 900.

Good news comes from Salt Lake
this week, in the statement that the
we'll known Seven Troughs-Knicker-
booker mine, near Vernon, has been
sold. This ledge was discovered by
]. H. Andregg who sold it to Messrs.
Knickerbocke and Lloyd. These
gentlemen discovered some rich
leads on the ground and organized a
company to take up the work of de-
veloping and prospecting the claims.
Assays from different leads found
on the ground assays of from $50
up to $4,000. Several leases were
let on this ground and are now be-
ing worked.
The report from Salt Lake is to
the effect that this property has
lately changed hands on basis of
$4,000 valuation, Messrs. Lloyd
and Andregg retaining their interest,
while Salt Lake parties have secured
the interest of Captain Knickerbock-
err. 1t is further stated that the new
management will start active devel-
opment work right away.
The ground is close to Vernon, ad-
Joining the Buckhorn group on the
south and those who have been over
the claims consider that it will be
among the bonanzas of the camp

LEASING COMPANY rs
MAKING A RECORD

Probably no leasing company ever
worked harder to break all Outstand-
ing records than is the Mohawk Com
bination Leasing company, which is
an amalgamation of the Sheets-Ish
and Kalfus leases. Ever since the
resumption of active work, following
a long period of litigation, from $50
to 200 tons per day of the high-grade
has been extracted, every available
man that space would permit being
employed. The average value of the
ore is 500 per ton, and at the pres
emit rate of production the monthly
output is $45O,0OO. AS the lease
has five months to run the total out
put should be somewhere near 3d.
100000.
The mechanical equipment is mod
ern in every respect. A skip is in
use and a round trip is made every
five minutes. The ore Is being taken
out through the incline shaft, al
though considerable work is being
done on the vertical shaft of the old
Sheets-Ish lease. Later it is probable
that considerable ore will be hoisted
through this shaft, as the manage
ment wishes to take advantage OF
every opportunity to get out all pos
sible of the precious metal before
they are prevented from doing so by
the expiration of their lease.

PLANNING BIG PLACER
SCHEME AT ROUND MOUNTAIN

Mr.. Bartlett, one of the pioneers of
Round Mountain, has the utmost con-
fidence in the future of that camp
and is free in the assertion that with
another years development it will
prove one of the best In the state.
Just before Mr.. Bartlett's departure
from home five carloads of pipe ar
rived for the Loftus-Davis hydraulic
enterprise and several more were on
the road. The material will be used
in the completion of the pipe system
which will carry water to the ground
where preparations are now being
made for extensive placer operations,
and where a large force of men are
now employed and under crude
sluicing conditions are making from
$40 to $40 day to the man. For
miles around the Round Mountain
country the ground is heavily charged
with gold and with sufficient water
for practical purposes and with sys-
tematic treatment of the dirt the
ground can be made to yield a rich
harvest and add very materially to
Nevada's golden output.

WILL BUILD STATION
AT BULLIONVILLE-PAN

We learn from a reliable source
that it is the intention of the railroad
to establish a station at Bullionville-
Panaca just as soon as the rails reach
that point. From progress that is
being made now it is expected that
this point will be reached about Aug
ust 18th. The determination of the
railroad to build station at this
point for the receiving of freight, was
reached after the earnest solicitation
of some of the leading companies at
this point. These companies have
been extracting ore for some time and
now have the ore bins filled to their
utmost capacity, and 1t Is absolutely
necessary that they commence ship
ping as soon as possible. Take the
Bristol-C Consolidated, for instance,
they are at present shipping to Mo-
dena and Caliente and every mile
that is reduced in hauling means con-
siderable money to the company.
Again we have the Menhah, the Lyn-
don Mines company and numerous
other mines and prospects who will
commence shipping when the road
reaches that point.
The one great problem which the
railroad is contending with at pres
ent is the scarcity of labor and any
delay in the roads completion may
be assigned directly to that cause.
Should it be possible to maintain the
present force, the road will reach
Phoebe at least by the first of Octo-
Der, and if additional help can be
secured, much before that time.
The officials in making their esti-
mates of the probable completion of
the road, always figured upon the
provision of keeping sufficient help.
The steel gang is laying about 1000
feet per day, or about $4,000 feet
per week; no work being done on
Sundays. Deal Bros. & Mendenhall
who have the contract for the grad
ing anticipate no trouble in keeping
the grade we'll in advance of the steel
gang. At present there is about ten
miles of rails laid and the grading
force is we'll along in Condor canyon.

Wheat Stronger.

CHICAGO, July 25.-Fresh re-
ports of black rust in the wheat fields
of the northwest were used today to
put strength into the local wheat
market. September closed at net
gain of 3-Sc. Corn was 1-2c higher
and oats advanced 3-8c. Provisions
were 2 1-2c higher to sc lower.
When trading commenced there
was an active general demand for
wheat and prices ranged from 3-8c
to 1c above yesterdays closing. The
buying was based largely on firm ca
bles, small receipts and higher prices
on the Minneapolis curb. The mar
ket was still further strengthened by
damaging reports from the north
west, some of which we're received
late in the day, and confirmed pre-
vious reports of rust in the Dakota
wheat fields. 1t was claimed today
that the blight had appeared in Min
nesota. The official forecast of more
rain for Illinois, Iowa and Missouri,
where harvesting is in progress, was
another bullish influence. The mar
ket closed strong. September opened
>2-Sc to 3-4c higher, at 80 lac to
~ Use, advanced to SO 3-8c and
closed az sac.

A BIG MINING DEAL
IN THE ELY DISTRICT

A mining deal of more than ordin-
airy Importance was contaminated
this week, when J. s. Free, the Pr
oche mining man, and e. Taylor,
prominent mining engineer of Salt
Lake City, exercised their option held
on the Victor, Victor Extension, Apex
Conqueror, Senator, Michigan and
Financier lode mining claims, says
the Phoebe Record. These claims are
situated in the Ely mining district,
about one mile in an easterly direc-
ton from Phoebe. They embrace
some of the choicest mineral ground
in the Ely district and from point
of location, and indications given by
present development, should with
proper working, develop into some
of the leading mines in the district.
The territory embraced by these
claims extend from the Poorman on
the west to the Alps mine on the
east and take In a large portion of
the porphyry dyke, so famous for
the production of rich ore in that
section. Immediately north of the
property is the Boss and other claims
belonging to the Boston-Pioche, and
upon which a good and substantial
working shaft is being sunk.
Messrs. Taylor and Free have as
signed large interest in their option
to G. S. Martin and F. A. Hook, two
prominent business men of Salt Lake
City. A corporation will be formed,
including these gentlemen as the
principal stockholders. Just as soon
as the arrangements can be made,
active development will begin. The
work will be under the supervision of
Mr.. Taylor, who has been making
study of the conditions, and has at
present point located where the
working shaft will be sunk. Mr..
Taylor is very enthusiastic over the
prospects of the property and firmly
believes that 'one of the largest bo-
nanzas in the camp lies within its
boundaries.
The properties were purchased
from Geo. Arbogast and Robert Null
hall, and their sons, Fred Arbogast
and Robert Mulhall; and another
group from Henry Welland, Joseph
Foster and Cyril Del Curto. The
above parties are to receive nice
consideration for their interests and
received a good-sized piece of money
at the time of the signing of the OPP
tions. The deeds have been placed in
escrow with the Bank of Phoebe, inc,
and it is safe to say that each pay
ment will be readily met by the pur-
chasing parties, as sufficient funds
for this purpose is already assured
One significant fact in the mining
transactions consummated of late in
this district, is the majority of Salt
Lake men connected with them. Salt
Lake mining men are quick to rec
ognize the merits of Phoebe and are
investing their money here, getting in
on the ground floor, and they will be
the winners when the tonnage be-
gins to roll out.

SECRETARY GARFIELD ON
THE MERITS OF TRADE

BERKELEY, Cal, July 24.-Sec-
rotary of the Interior James r. Gar
field spoke at Hearst hall today his
address being one of series on 1.-The
Morals of Trade" He said:
1.-The acts of corporations should
be dealt within exactly the same
manner as the acts of individuals. AL
corporate bodies should be made tC
have indisputable responsibilities
and should be made to stand full
publicity. There is no difference be-
tween combinations of capital and Ia
Dor, and both should be dealt with
in exactly the same manner
He said that he was an optimist
and he believed that this country
would reap much benefit from its
present experiences. He added:
This is a country of homes, where
the national purity is being fostered
and encouraged"
