Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
SEARCHLIGHT, New, May 12.-
Another Los Angeles mining company
made it's debut here when the Stanley
Forbes Extension Mining company be-
gan operations at Fourth Of July noun
tain, four miles east Of camp. The
Extension is a companion property to
the Stanley Forbes, which bears the
distinction of having been f1oated en-
tirely on Los Angeles capital and which
has proved a good thing for those who
pinned their faith on its ultimate sue
cess.
The main ledge OF the Stanley Forbes
is traceable into and across the Ex-
tension, and where 1T has been opened
on the surface shows even better
values than the former.
| The new company is fully financed
by a strong organization, having at its
head Col. M. r. Meyer of Los Angeles
as president Col. Meyer has had vast
business and mining experience, botf
in California and the big mining camps
of Colorado, and has full confidence
that q big mine will be developed with
comparatively nominal outlay. Asso-
ciated with Col. Meyer is Joseph Nc
Arthur, vice president, also president
of the Stanley Forbes, and j. ]. Tyndal
of Los Angeles, secretary. These, to-
gether with L.. j. Kiser, a prominent
mining man of Searchlight, will COM
pose the directorate
A large force of men has been put to
work establishing camp and prospect
ing for the best point at which to sink
working shaft. The topography of
the country, close proximity to water,
good roads and rich surface showings,
give the property most auspicious
launching into the mining development
of the immediate vicinity, which has
been proved to carry good values and
large ore bodies with depth.

|NYO COUNTY IS
RICH IN COPPER
MAY BECOME GREATEST PRO-
DUCER IN THE WORLD
Recent Discoveries Cause a General
Rush to the New Red Metal
ReIt-Mlles Of Surface
Values

F. S. Gordon, the we'll known Los
Angeles mining engineer, now on MS
way to New York, believes that 1nyo
county, Cal, within less than a year
will develop into one Of the greatest
copper producing sections In the world.
Mr.. Gordon has been examining prop
critics in Inyo county. on the western
side of the range, miles from Death
valley, and within the past weeks he
has located scores Of valuable claims,
the Montezuma property being in the
richest section of the territory. 1t Is
claimed that the whole surface of the
district for many miles bears rich
values and that all examinations by ex-
perts prove that the copper belt Is wide,
. long and deep.
Near Branch Railroad
Another report is that the values are
near ManZourka canyon, thirteen miles
east of Independence. Although the
ledge Is partly covered by lime drift
the outcrop can be traced for over five
miles, being from forty to 200 feet in
width. An open cut run across the out
crop distance Of twenty-five feet
shows over twenty feet Of sulphide ore.
A sample taken across the face of the
cut at a depth of fifteen feet gave re-
turns of per cent copper and five
ounces Of silver per ton.
Z This great copper belt is located only
three miles east of the Carson & Colo
RADIO railroad, and the same distance
from Owens river, where abundance of
water may be had for milling purposes.
With plenty of rich carbonate ana
oxides, vast bodies of sulphide and
worlds Of water for camp and mill pur-
poses this section by it's accessibility
should become one of the many mineral
wonders of old Inyo.
Whites Find Indian Mine
From Dry creek in Nevada comes the
news that the old tunnel from which
Indian Johnnie took out fabulous wealth
in the old days has been discovered. In
the early eighties Piute Indian named
by the whites Indian Johnnie" dis
covered an immense ledge of gold
bearing quartz, the values of which, ac-
cording to tradition, ran well into the
thousands.
Johnnie, strange as it may seem, in
direct contradiction to the general run
of Indians, was worker, and the
crafty instinct of the Indian came to
light with the discovery of the tunnel
as Johnnie, before leaving for parts
unknown, had blown down ton or sc
of rock so as to effectually close up the
entrance to the mine and conceal al
evidence of his find, even going to tht
extent of planting a growth of sage
brush in the debris.
While doing the location work on the
claims the old workings were discovered
by the owners, and an examination
showed a 12-foot ledge in place will

LEASES THt BUILDING
 OCCUPIfDBY CHOP HOUSE
Supervisor Hoehe Will Take Charge
 of the Chop House This Fall.

Supervisor Hoghe's only mission to the east was not for sight-seeing and showing the boys good time, but there was considerable business mixed up with his trip. While in New York he secured of Harry Jones the owner lease of the building occupied by Gass Bros Chop house and will in No vember be back at the old stand as proprietor of the business and over seeing the manufacturing of the fla nous Hoghe Hamburger and other delicacies.
 MT. Hoghe while in St. Louis pur- chased the fixtures for the chop house and in the large cities visited the prin- cipal resorts Of the hungry and col lected all the new ideas he could on the business, which he will spring on his patrons this fall.
 He will have his hands full with be- ing supervisor, school trustee and looking after his hogs and other busi- ness, but he thinks that the Chop house is a good business proposition and he never lets q good thing go by. His past experience warrants him in the belief that he can make another ranch or two in the next year. Then he is expecting a great immigration from the east this winter of his friends and he wants to be ready to get their
 money and give them something in re- | turn also.
 He was not liberating twenty dollar | bills and chartering steambOats for nothing when he was in Worcester, Mass. When he was there he gave a crowd of his old acquaintances d royal 1 good dinner and then secured a boat and took them for a cruise on Lake Quinsigmund. There was method in his madness. The flash of the big roll looks fine to an customer and now MT. Hoghe expects they will be hurrying out here where money grows on trees and in the alfalfa.
 l Mir. Hoghe will divide his time be- ! tween his businesses. First he will be supervisor elected by and for Phoenix i and next he will be a caterer for ! Phoenix and supervise keeping his
 friends in a good humor. knowing that
 the best wa to reach a mans heart
 is through his stomach. How's that

Trimmer as auditor and approved by H. T. Scott as president and receipted by T. V. Halsey. Heney asked. Do you know what that sl20O was for?" T did not know at the time it was presented to me for approval" answered Scott, but told Zimmer that sort of thing would have to stop and that vouchers must be signed by the persons who get the money and that they must be persons publicly employed by the company. Said I didn't want to be harsh. but these allowances would have to be cut down or stopped entirely within three or four months"
 Scott identified his approval sigma tUre on four other later vouchers for 5000 each, ail paid to Kuef through Halsey and explained that they were thus cut down by his order and were the last payments made to Ruef. At the time you approved these vouchers did you know of any service that had been performed by Ruef for the com pany?" Heney asked. Scott answered No sir"
 He testified that Class salary at the time he, Scott, took charge as president, was s15,O0O a year. Delmas handed Scott a telegram which pur- ported to have been sent to the general officers by Halsey from Minneapolis at a time when. according to Scott's testimony. Halsey was in the state of Washington. Scott said he never had seen such a telegram, whereupon Heney took it from his hand and ex- amined 1t. This caused another hot exchange of personalities after which the telegram was introduced in evil dence. At the afternoon session Heney placed upon the stand former members If the Oakland city council and by their testimony, proved Glass as the general manager and in supervision ot the efforts made by Halsey to defeat the application of the Home Telephone company for a rival franchise in tho Transbay City. A point in the testi- mony which the prosecution sets grea store by is the likelihood it creates of the exercise of similar supervision by Glass with reference to the SaT Francisco supervisors.

DEATH NVADES THE
 IRON SPRINGS RESORT
Little Talbot Croft Barnes Passed Away Last Evening After a Pro- tracted Illness.

Dr Ancil Martin received a message from Iron Springs last evening an
 nouncing the death of Talbot Croft
 Barnes. the little son of MT and Mrs Will J. Barnes, who was a little less i than six years old. The death was not
 entirely unexpected as the boy has
 been i'll for some time of meningitis, and it was feared hOpelessly so. MT.
 Barnes is in Las Vegas just at present. the family home having been in New Mexico for several years. Mrs. Barnes has been spending the summer here and at Iron Springs with her sister. Mrs. Martin and their mother, Mrs. Walter Talbot, all of whom are now at Iron Springs.
 Only meager details were contained | in the message last night but it is known that the boy has been in a dan gerous condition for some time, though there was seemingly little apprehen- sion of so early an ending to his ill., ness and his life. It is probable that Dr. Martin will go up to Iron Springs on this mornings train, but at this time there are no advices concerning funeral arrangements. The dead boy was born in Phoenix and was the only child of Mfr. and Mrs. Barnes, who will have the sympathy of the entire com munity in their bereavement. Though the family has lived in New Mexico for some time Phoenix was the former home and It was expected would again become so since MT. Barnes secured an important position in the forestry ser vice which assigns him to duty in this territory as well as in New Mexico.
