HEINzE TO GET
The BLUESTONE
WELL-FOUNDED REPORT INDI-
Gates THAT OPTION ON NINE
WILL BE EXERCISED


Information has come from a re-
liable source to the effect that the
engineers on the staff of F, Augustus
Heinze have made a favorable report
on the Bluestone mine at Yerington,
New, and that the property is almost
certain to become a unit in the
Heinze system of mines.
A late arrival from Yerington
brings the information that after the
property had been examined by two
or three Heinze engineers, Chief En-
gineer Alfred Franks was sent for
and the latter is reported as having
made the statement that the future
of the mine and camp looks very
good to him. A series of tests are
being made to determine the best
method adapted for the treatment of
the ore and favorable progress is be-
ing made with them.
The Bluestone is owned by Cap
tain De La Mar, and the mount of
ore blocked out is said to be great
enough to justify the owner in ask
ing $4,000, 900 for the property.
AS to the quantity of ore developed
or its value, little information is fur
nished. The ore is ch%alcopyrite, and
runs from half of N to 10 per cent
in copper. There seems to be no
doubt that the mine has opened ore
bodies of large extent, OF bodies that
win help to make good the represen-
tation of Yerington, but the size of
the dumps does not indicate under
ground work as extensive as correct
ly reported. On the surface the show
ing consists chiefly of carbonates,
segregated here and there in rich
seams and pockets, from some of
which the ore ore has been removed
and shipped. This surface gopher
ing perhaps onee enabled a few min
ers or leasers to make wages, but it
cannot regarded as serious mining,
and it has been discontinued by the
present owner. Depth has been
gained and large bodies of sulphide
ore opened by tunnels. There is
some showing of sulphides ever on
top. The formation carrying the ore
is lime with a granite contact.
Although it is extensively develop
Although it is extensively de-
veloped the Bluestone is not now a
producer. An experimental reduction
plant has been erected, however, and
1t Is probable that the Bluestone will
be one of the first mines in the YER
ington copper district to provide it.
self with equipment for treating ore
on a large scale. Some of the more
sanguine predict that the district will
have nine or ten producing copper
mines within a year. The shipping
tonnage already developed is enough
to warrant building a branch railroad
10 the mines, ana the southern Pa
ciffc how has surveyors in the field.
Trains will very likely be running
into Yerington before the end of the
year, and a railroad is certainly
needed, for the condition of the
wagon road between Wabuska and
Terington is not good evidence OF
ability or energy on the part of those
responsible for its maintenance.

lance from the property of the Ne.

COST KEEPING IN THE
GOVERNMENT SERVICE
President Urges System Which Will
Enable Officials TO Keep Better
Record of Money Spent.

Washington, Jan. 13.-President
Roosevelt today made a public report
on "cost keeping in the government
service" prepared by the Keep COM
mission. A cost system, if properly
devised and operated, the report says,
will furnish information enabling the
responsible head of the organization to
estimate more intelligently the proba-
able cost of future operations along
similar lines and to fix proper selling
prices on products transferred to other
government organizations or sold to
foreign governments or to private in
dividuals. The recommendations have
the cordial endorsement of Secretary
Shaw.
Cost keeping as branch of ac-
counting is a comparatively modern
development the report says, and has
not been introduced to any consider
able extent in the government SER
vice. In this matter the government
has much to learn from private busi-
/ ness In work of this character the
institution of a thorough cost keep
ing system would make intelligent
comparisons possible and would tend
to bring the less effectively conducted
establishments NJ to the standard of
the best
The report recommends that cost
keeping systems be installed in all
branches of the government service
where it is possible to do so.
The public printer is working out
| the details of an elaborate cost keep
| ing system which he is about to in
stall in the government printing office
and the mint bureau has put a new
system In effect at the various mints.

BREAKS HIS LEG
WHILE RUNNING
FOR THE CAR

The passengers in trolley ear on
the Lumber Mills extension were
the shocked witnesses of peculiar

two minutes fog him to get aboard.
The street is rather rough and uneven
there as a result OF the recent rains
and the citizen was making pretty
fast time across the ruts when there
was a loud crack and the passengers
who had been watching the mans
approach were startled to see the rum
ner collapse and stagger to tele-
graph pole against which he leaned
with the exclamation, I've broken
my leg"

accident did not faint, on the con
trary he smiled cheerfully as a num-
ber of persons rushed to his assistance
and laughed and ioked as they helped
him to his house where medical aid
was at once summoned The injured
man was V. +. Edie. the well known
business man. He had caught his
foot In one Of the numerous sink holes
in the street and the strain caused II
to snap like a toothplck midway be-
tween the foot and the knee the frac-
ture being clear and clean straight
across the limb.
AT last accounts Mr.. Edie had had
the fracture set successfully and was
resting easy.

JEROME STARTS WAR ON
RACE TRACK GAMBLING
New York District Attorney Goes Be-
fore Legislature With Bill to Wipe
Out BOOkmaking

New York, Jan. 13.-District Attor-
ney Jerome has started a campaign TO
eliminate race betting in this state
He will go to Albany tomorrow and
ask the legislature to wipe out certain
sections of the Percy-Grav law. In
one bill he seeks to deliver a death
blow to that section which saws that
the only penalty for bookmaking at
the track shall be recovery of the bet
by a civil suit. In another bin he
proposes TO amend the penal code 50
as to make bookmaking at the track
or any other place a misdemeanor in
stead of felony, the punishment to
be not more than one year in the pen
tentiary, or a fine of $500 or both.
Relating to these two bills the dis
trict attorney has drawn "A bill to pro-
vide for the income which agricultural
societies throughout the state receive
through the provisions of the Percy
Gray law Instead of getting a cer-
tain percentage of the receipts of rae
ing associations, he provides that a
certain fixed sum. not designated IN
the bill as drawn un, shall be appro-
priated out of the state treasury for
agricultural purposes.

Chicago, Jan. 12.-After daily nego-
tlatiolns which have lasted several
weekH, western railroads today de-
cided Ito give locomotive engineers in
creased wages aggregating between
$5,00Ot000 and $6,000,0 900 annually.
The Increase will affect between 15,-
600 AMID 10000 engineers on all roads
west on Chicago to the Pacific coast,
north 10 the Canadian border and
south .td the Gulf of Mexico. The ne
gotiatioIbs were carried on between a
committee headed by Chief w. S.
Stone. on the Brotherhood of Locomo-
tive Engineers, and another of a num-
Der of geHeral railroad managers.
The advance will apply to all
classes of engineers. On passenger
trains tht engineers will receive a
fve-cent ilncrease on a hundred mile
run. On Afreight engineers the in=
crease WIN range between eight and
twelve CENTS per hundred miles, in
all the largfr freight yards the switch
engineers will receive additions of
from to ~ cents day with the as
surance thatA they will not be kept out
more than twelve hours.
Apparently the spirit of compro-
mise governeH the negotiations. for
the engineersN have practically agreed
to give up thdir contention for an
eight-hour daA--that is an eight-hour
day with resIAict TO being credited
with a run of Pne hundred miles for

mands regarding pay for overtime and
will not insist % the original demand
with regard tO%sight competency of
engineers. The xwitch engineers were
refused an allowance of time and one-
half for overtime in excess of two
hours.
This is tho frstl time in railroad his
tory that the denA ands of a labor or
ganization have peen considered by
all railroads in a lalrge territory. When
the joint demand Twas first made the
railroads refused td treat with the en-
gineers as a wholel preferring to deal
with them on each \road. Chief Stone
was firm, however Yin his refusal to
confer with the RAILROADS except as a
whole. The railroads finally agreed to
appoint a committee ITO meet the body
represented by Chief stone and the
settlement would Indicate that a new
method of dealing with railroad labor
delegations had been adopted. There

ule to arrange, and dhe negotiations
