STONE PROPERTY

e. H. Wilson and H. C. Ballinger,
experts for f. Augustus HeinZe, the
Montana copper man, have been in
camp this week examining the bic
Bluestone mine, the property of Cap
tain DeLamar, says the Lyon county
Times. Upon the report of Messrs.
Wilson and Ballinger depends more
than likely, the sale of the property
to Heinze for figure in the neigh
borhood of $10,000,00O. So far as
will be favorable. He is very en-
thusiastic about this entire district,
and believes it is going to make the
biggest copper camp ever heard of.
The Bluestone mine consists of
over twenty claims, and lies about
three miles west of Yerineton and
was formerly - proper, OF r.. II.
Miller and associates, and was, in
1901, operated to some extent by
the Excelsior company, company
made up of Butte people, with c. H.
Batterman as president and general
manager A smelter was erected on
the property and considerable of the
best ore in the mine was worked.
Copper was then low-getting down
to 10 cents-and upon the death of
Mr.. Batterman the company was dis
solved and the property reverted to
Mr.. Miller and associates
Some time ago M. J. Heller took
the property over for Captain De-
Lamar at price in the neighborhood
of $4,000. Since then develop
ment work has been carried on quite
extensively and reports from expert
examinations state that there is from
100000 to 100000 tons of cop
per ore blocked out in the mine at
the present time. The ore will run,
on an average, 3 per cent or better.
This. with copper at 20 cents, and
100000 tons only in sight. would
give the mine value of $12, 200, 900.
and with 100000 tons in sight,
100000. From what informa-
tion can be obtained it is reasonable
to suppose that the property has
close to the latter valuation. A year
a value of $9,000,000 on the prop
erty, 1t was considered the craziest
piece of writing ever done in the
state. Different now.
For year or more past Captain
DeLamar has been testing the ores
of the Bluestone by the electrO-mag-
netic separating process, and has
demonstrated that it is complete
success. Over 80 per cent of the
values in the ore can be saved by this
process, and at present plans are out
for a 1,OO0-ton plant of this descrip-
ton, and. grading for the plant is
under way.
1t will make little difference who
has the property. 1t will be worked
on a large scale within the next few
months, and it is good to know that
property of this kind exists in the
Yerington district.

NEW YORK, July 4.-Indepen-
dence day, ushered in with much
noise. went out tonight in blaze
of pyrotechnics, the most imposing
that New Workers. have witnessed
A deafening roar, maintained
throughout the day in the burning
of millions of dollars worth of pow
der, gave way after nightfall to the
exhibitions of fire works, which
lighted the stars with effects of sur
passing beauty. Viewed from its
brighter side, the holiday was truly
glorious, a smiling sun and moderate
temperature bringing tens of thou
sands of people to the beaches, the
public parks and amusement resorts,
and everywhere there was noise
making and fun. In the background
the police and hospital surgeons went
grimly about their work of removing
the dead and ministering to the
wounded.
Tonight the police are reckoning
the cost in casualties of the days
celebration. At late hour the list
was not complete, but it was known
that today's celebration had cost sew
en- lives; that half a dozen persons
were dying and that hundreds of
others were being treated at the hos
pitfalls for injuries ranging from slight
burns, with possibility of tetanus de-
velopments, bullet wounds and loss
of limbs.
OF the dead, three died by prema-
ture explosions. In an ecstasy of
patriotism, Arthur Carrao rapidly
discharged revolver in his back
yard. One of the bullets entered the
head of his aunt, Mrs. Alfonso Fuca-
rino, and she fell dead The next
bullet by design or accident, killed
the celebratOr.
Another person celebrating sent a
bullet through the brain of 1S-year-
old Nimpa Grizzanti as she stood near
the open window of her room dress
ing her hair.
Henry Englehart, aged four years,
was killed by bullet while looking
out of the window of his home
Jesse Guzviter, 21 years old, is
dying from another stray bullet.
John Graham, 10 years old. was
mortally wounded by a charge from
toy cannon. James BenezO, six
years old, was all but burned alive
when a fire cracker ignited his cloth
ing.
Arthur Carfoot, 25 years old, is
one of a dozen whose hands were
blown off. Loss of eyes and fingers
and scar-leaving wounds added to the
total of emergencies.

SEEKING TO VIOLATE
THE IMMIGRATION LAWS

MEXICO CITY, July 1.-Two
hundred and seventy-five Japanese
landed at Santa Cruz yesterday.
These Japanese, like most of the
others that land in this country, are
headed for the coal mines in the dis
trict of Las Esperanza. Joseph q.
Stand, a Chinese immigration in
spector stationed at Ell Paso, who ar
rived in this city today, stated that
Japanese are fiocking to the border
in great numbers and buying tickets
from Juarez through to Canada in
order to enter the United States in
violation of the recent provisions Of
the immigration department, which
closed the border to these immi-
grants. Instead of going to Canada,
it is stated, many stop at convenient
points in the United States.

put to work. More active work is

ing around the Columbia shaft and
the results of their drillings are most
promising.
The drilling in the Queen of the
West shaft in the Federal Ely is now
down 100 feet and good sulphides
are being encountered. The outlook
is excellent. A peculiar fact is that
they struck water at a depth of 30
feet when excavating for the engine
and headframe for the surface plant.

place, prosecuting will he COM

OLDFIELD IS
/. ARRESTED ON A
SERIOUSCHARCE
ACCUSED BY PORTLAND PAPER
OF OBTAINING MONEY UNDER
FALSE PRETENSES.
ALLEGES RACES WERE FAKES
Complaint States Name of Auto Club
Was Used for Purpose of Gain
ing Prestige.

PORTLAND, Ore, July 4.-Bar-
ney Oldfield, the automobile racer,
was placed under arrest and war
rant has been issued for II. A. Nor
ris, Oldfield's business manager, on
charges of obtaining money under
false pretenses The warrants were
issued at the instance of the Even
ing Telegram, in what that paper be-
lieves Is in the interest of clean sport
and are the outgrowth of yesterdays
automobile contests in this city.
Oldfield was released on $500
bond. Morris Is on his way to Butte,
Montana, and has not been arrested
The race meet yesterday was a
complete fizZle. There were few en-
tries and to make matters worse.
heavy shower in the middle of the
meet left the track a sea of mud and
rendered any further racing impossi-
BILE.
The information filed by the Tele-
gram Is general in its accusation. but
In this afternoon issue the paper
prints charges that Oldfield and his
manager used the name of a local
automobile club for the purpose of
gaining prestige; that this use was
without the sanction of the club; that
the promoters of the race meet Of
fered card of races. when they
knew none of the entries listed in
tended to participate; that in general
the meet was fake. and that by this
alleged sharp practice Oldfield and
Morris obtained large sum from
admission fees.
According to the best information
obtainable the real difficulty lies with
local automobile dealers, who, it is
stated, were behind the meet. Since
the first races, it Is alleged that in
tense rivalry. which has all along ex-
listed between agents of the various
makers of machines, has developed
into bitter animosity and the dealers
who were ready at first to enter their
machines in yesterdays contest, at
the last minute withdrew their en-
tries.
Morris and Oldfeld apparently
made every effort to make yester-
days race meet success, evidently
under the belief that it was Old
fields performances, rather than the
events carded between local contest
ants, which the visitors at the track
came to see. IT is stated by un-
biased persons that Oldfield's ma
chine was in even better condition
yesterday than it was on the days of
the first meet when he broke sew
eral worlds records, while Bruno
Seibel's vehicle was in no worse CON
dition

When Squires was seen af-
ter the fight he said that he
had been led to believe that
Burns was not a "knocker-
out. He had been told that
Burns did not possess the
strength to put man to sleep
with a few blows and this be-
lief had made him careless
at the beginning of the con-
test, which resulted in the
early blow to the jaw, which
dazed him.
Burns said: II saw the
moving pictures of Squires In

on exhibition. When | saw
how he carried himself and
how he acted, knew that |

idence that | would be the
winner"
The receipts of the fight
were $4,000.
