Chamber Of Commerce has appealed 10
President Roosevelt to interfere to pre-.
vent the ruin of small merchants and
serious loss to others.
A long communication forwarded to

railroads for the great increase in the
time required to ship goods across the
continent, and accuses the railroads, by
implication at least, of willfuily delay.

traffic of the express companies. which.
the letter says, are practically owned
by the railroads, aud charge much more

The letter recommends that steps b.,

that the railroads have failed to give the

THE LYNN MINING DISTRICT
Ledge Carrying Ore Values of
S53 In Gold per Ton Has
Been Discovered

The Reno Journal Of June % obtains
the following information from M. B.
Moore, one OF the original looators in
the new mining district in the north
eastern part of Eureka County:
The Lynn Mining District. as the
, vicinity OF Lynn Greek near the line
of Elko and Eureka Counties, is called
by courtesy, has not proven to be the
great Eldorado for placer miners that
it was thought it would be early last
March when the discoverer. after whom
the creek has been called. first made
known the fact that he had found
placer gold there.
That there is placer gold there in
paying quantities has not yet been de-
city of water which as effectively blocks
placer mining as would the absence OF
the metal sought.
The whole country is what prospect
ors call hard country to prospect. II
is covered with a heavy wash called
"carpet" and little can be found ON the
surface.
The formation is described as iron
aud porphyry. the gold bearing ma
terial being thus far a decomposeo
quartz found in contact with the
porphyry.
The ledge matter thus far found in
the course of development work dont
on the Gold Dollar. which is referred
TO because more work has been done OIL
t than on any other holding, consists
OF this decomposed material. some OF
which carries free gold, although at b
iepth Of about 10 feet it is believed thai
defined ledge is developing, which
has width of about four feet. and car.
ries gold values to the extent of $53 pei
ton, as shown by the assays thus fai
made. These have not been many, for
the reason that the owners knew the
material taken out contained free gold,
and till they had succeeded in disclos
ing ledge the value of the matter en-
countered made little difference, as il
had no permanency.
The properties referred to are located
about Is miles from Carlin, in the cor
ner of Eureka County, a I'd about two
or three miles from the Elko County
line, between Lynn and Sheep creeks.

WESTERN PACIFIC PROGRESSING
New Railway Line Is Building
Rapidly Toward ElkO

Salt Lake Herald June 90: Labor
conditions on the line of the Western
Pacific road from Salt Lake to Z. ko,
the first division of the new line. are
better at present than they have been
for months and more actual work is be.
ing done and better results are being
obtained in pushing the construction
of the line than has been the case for
nearly year.
This was the information brought to
Salt Lake late lat night by Western
Pacific engineers who have just COM
pleted a trip over the line from Salt
Lake to Eiko.
About 25OO0 men are at work on this
division aud more will probably be put
on very soon. The track is now COM
pleted from Salt Lake to within 100
miles of Elko. From this point about
half the line into Elko has been graded
aud rail construction work will start
very soon.
The engineers who returned last
night would make no estimates as to
when part or all of the division from
Salt Lake to Elko will be opened for
regular traffic of trains. 1t has been
rumored here for some time that por.
tion Of the division mentioned above
was to be opened for regular train SER
vice. The officials of the line stationed
here. however. say this cannot be done
for several months.
The officials Of the line say the heavi.
est part of the grading on the 120-mile
gap to Elko is done and that only the
light work remains. Over beyond Elko
the road is progressing in excellent
manner and no great trouble is looked
for in that direction.
