having special rates and the Virginia
and Truckee will suffer an increase
in their rates, and it is understood
the other roads will raise a number
of articles which are now hauled for
less than the maximum rate to that
scale. This will no doubt cause a
considerable furry among some of
the shippers, several of whom have
already been notified of the proposed
increase.
Saturday Commissioner J. F.
Shaughnessy started for a trip along
the Southern Pacific road east from
Reno. He will meet the shippers at
Wells, Elko, Winnemucca and other
points in the eastern part of the
state to gather data and investigate
conditions in that section. He will
likely spend a week to ten days on
the work.
Commissioner Bartine, chairman
of the board, left Carson City yester-
day morning for trip to the towns
the Tonopah and Goldfield. Haw-
thorne, Tonopah, Goldfield and other
points will be visited. Mr.. Bartine
will meet the shippers of that sec
ton, and if any have complaints ar
rangements will be made to have a
hearing at an early opportunity.
Other data which will be used by the
commission will aso be gathered.

LOCATED SIX CLAIMS
NEAR DUCK CREEK
L. c. Carter and Son Bring ORE
From UnprOspected District
That Looks Good.

L. c. Carter and son, E. S. Carter,
have returned from the Duck creek
country where they located six
claims. They brought back with
them 100 pounds of rock which they
intend to have assayed. The Carriers
explored the Duck Greek district
last week and state that they have a
great body of ore in sight.
Their property is about four and
one-half miles up the creek opposite
the Payne ranch and twenty-five
miles east of Ely. They state that no
location have been made there ex-
cept those which they made last Fri
day. The foot wall is of black lime
nature and the hanging wall sort of
shale. The ledge is fifty yards from
the creek and, according to the pros
pectors, there are nine or ten feet of
it. The samples are we'll stained
and although the rock is low grade
there Is such a great quantity of 1t
that the property may pan out well.
ut is an excellent country" said
Mr.. Carter Jr., in discussing the dis
covery with a News representative.
The creek is full of trout and there is
plenty of timber and water. A good
wagon road leads into the district
We traced about 5000 feet and dug
down about five feet. My father and
| will return next week and continue
our work. There is practically no
ore in that vicinity, and it is said the
country has never been prospected
before. One could notdesire a more
agreeable spot. We will have the
rock assayed before we leave"

the Syphus measure steps will be
taken Immediately after the time

TOWN OF GOLCONDA is
A VERY BUSY PLACE

The large milling plant of the
Glasgow and Western Exploration
company at Golconda is working two
shifts and the mill is running steadily
day and night on ore from the Ade-
laide mine at Gold Run. The plant
is equipped with the American direct
concentration, new process lately in
vented and used for the first time at
this mill. So far this process has
been very successful and the percent
age of extraction is large.
A strike of rich lead and silver ore
ha sheen made at Gregg canyon, four
teen miles south of Golconda, and the
ore is being extracted for shipment.
The Golconda Nevada Copper COM

At the West Dip property work is
going ahead steadily and ore is being
taken out for shipment. The COM
pany' has already shipped two car
loads of ore.
The Glasgow and Western Explora-
ton company now has about twenty
five men at work at the Adelaide
mine and the railroad to the mine is
kept busy hauling ore to the mill.
The town of Golconda is a very
busy place, and the business men are
experiencing prosperous times. Pros
pectors are scattered over the hills
and good ore is brought to town
every day. A number of mining sales
have been made recently and more
sales are pending.
The Golconda mineral belt covers

ground workings now in the property
nave been shut down for the present
and sinking will begin at once on the
Hobo ledge. AS soon as the ledge
has been explored by shaft sunk in
the ore, however, a crosscut will be
run to connect with the old workings
and tie development of the mine will
De carried on through the old shafts
and crosscuts.
Manion was put in charge of the
property at the instance of group of
eastern mining men who have ac-
quired a large block of the company's
stock and will in future dictate the
policy of the company.
That Manion has assumed charge
OF the property is shown by the fact
that the Golden Scepter company has
$50 acres, twelve claims in all, of pat
ented land upon the slope of Bo-
nanza mountain.
When the shaft is sunk on the
Hobo ledge into shipping values the
property will more than pay it's own
development cost, and it is for this
reason that for the present the old
line of prosecuting will be aban-
doned.
The twenty-five horse power hoist
that is at present operating with a
ten drill compressor on the ground
will be shifted to the new shaft and
work in sinking will begin at once.
In speaking of the property Sec
retay McMullen said: I'VE have de-
cided to sink directly on the ore body
in order to save expense in prelimi-
nary development. We can begin
shipping high-grade ore almost at
once by direct sinking, and in that
way the ore we take on will more
than pay the expense of operating
the mine and of developing along the
old lines.
Under the present condition of
the market we will make no effort to
boost the price of our stocks, but in
stead will give all our time to min
ing
THE fact tina the Clark road cuts
Bonanza mountain directly below our
property guarantees us cheap freight
and easy handling of our ore. We
want no more until such time as we
build our mill"

WOMAN WHO WAS
ROBBED A YEAR
AGO dies

TONOPAH, New, June 9.-Mrs. l..
E. Kirk, the woman who was robbed
of her Jewels in Frank Harris saloon
a year ago, after being drugged, died
last night at the county hospital.
Frank Hart and his consort, Eta
Cole, are in Jail, charged with grand
larceny with bail fixed at $4,000
each.
Mrs. Kirk came here from Alaska
loaded down with diamond orna
ments and apparently with plenty of
money. She told the story of having
married a well-to-do druggist in
Alaska, and carried herself pretty
we'll here for some time, after which
which she was undoubtedly accus-
toned.
Eta Cole was one of the women
in the dance hall at the time, and she
professed to take great likink to
Mrs. Kirk. She had evidently taken
a violent liking to her jewels, for she
had not know her long when she in
yited her to the saloon kept by Hart.
There the woman had some drinks
in the company of Hart and she soon
lost consciousness. She had been
drugged and remained under the In
f1uence of the narcotic for hours.
When she came to her diamonds and
iewelry were missing. She accused
Hart and the Cole woman of robbing
her, but it was not until a month ago
that the officers were able to fasten
the crime on the couple.
The woman's vanity led to her
downfall. She appeared in public
with some of the jewelry and the
notice bounced upon her. Under
sweating process she divulged the
hiding place of some more OF the
iewelry and confessed that she mad
given Hart a pair of diamond ear
rings. Hart was arrested and SAID ne
had given the ear rings away In pay
ment of debt. The couple were held
to appear before the grand jury in
the bail named.
When the robbery occurred Mrs
Kirk was a handsome, robust woman
of striking appearance. From the et-
feet of the drug administered to her
she faded away to a mere shadow
It is said that when she died she did
not weigh more than sixty pounds
The nature of the drug has never
been ascertained. What will be the
outcome of the trial now that the
principal witness is dead, no one here
will venture to say.
The immediate cause of Mrs.
Kinks death was heart failure. She
was living at the Phoenix lodging
house and Drs. Mapes and Cunning
ham we're called to attend her at
$3.50 o'clock Saturday morning. At 8
O'Clock last evening the unfortunate
woman was ordered removed to the
county hospital, where she expired
shortly after her arrival.

WINGFIELD SHIPS
ORE At THE START

CARSON, New, June 9.-There are
now eighteen tons of ore from the
Liberty mine in the Ma
sonic district on the cars on its way
to the Selby smelter This ore is
valued at $4,000, or about $1,10O
per ton, and is from the mine just
purchased by George Wingfield and
the Nixon interests. The new owners
have taken charge of the mine and
have three shifts of men employed
in prosecuting on the 100-foot level
and are now near the big ledge. The
ore now being worked pans freely
and there is but little doubt but
that tht rich ore shoots extend tC
that level.
