means. II means that with Increased
values, The big body will develop into
milling grade. In the event of which
there Is no doubt that the other mines
contiguous will get ore below the dacite
intrusion. and that they will be among
the richest properties In the world
The Midway II now appears has
similar body to that OF the Montana
Tonopah. which Is sixty feet In width.
The people of the Midway have been
keeping quiet their discovery. and have
already started atwinsc. 400 feet north
Of the shaft. They conndently expect
10 set the values. and all the Indications
are IN their favor.
In the Tonopah Extension, they are
far In on their crosscut on the 1850
level, and they. too. have found the In
dicatiOns of an ore body. Rich string
ers have been encountered. and what
else has been discovered. the manage
ment is not. at the present time, dis
closing. They are not making a secret
II the matter. but they are fearful lest
they raise false hopes. They expect TO
encounter the ore body. at a point just
below where the fault occurred in the
upper level. That they will fnd the ore
there is no doubt; the only speculation
is the possibility OF the fault having
created a greater displacement than has
been figured upon That Is. instead OF
picking up the lost body where it dis
appeared. the vein may have been
shifted several hundred feet
With these discoveries Tonopah will
have to be reckoned with as another
Comstock The early comers here who
were familiar with Virginia City, were
struck with the similarity OF the ore to
that of the Comstock. and the similar
ity of geological conditions. When the
fault came in and there was raised the
cry of lack of depth. the idea of the
Comstock was forgotten Now. with
greater depth there is no way OF deter
mining the richness of the camp. and
there is no idea OF the extent OF the
depth. 1t was in the lower levels that
the richest bodies of ore were found in
the Comstock. There have been rich
enough bodies discovered in the upper
levels Of the mines in this camp. and IL
there would be a repetition OF these dis
coveries, that would be good enough.
The new discoveries make Of Tonopah
one of investment. If you take the map
of Tonopah. you Will observe numbers
of properties close in and far out,
which have only been worked In part,
and then dropped in consequence of the
dacite intrusion appearing in the big
mines. Now. with the depths and per-
maneney proven at depth. there is go-
ing to be new blood shot into the camp
as soon as the financial stringency is at
an end. and capital is more free for
investment. 1t is expected that Tono-
pah will again see times equal to the
good old days Of the leasers.
The mill Of the Tonopah Extension
will be a valuable acquisition TO the
camp. IT is to be OF forty stamps. and
will be located right here in Tonopah.
instead of being built at Millers twelve
miles away II will be SO arranged
that II can be increased at pleasure to
100 stamps. Its men will be employed
in Tonopah. will live here, and will be
paid of here: and II will mean. be-
sides. big increase to the output OF
Tonopah.

HENRY WEBE1 WINS SUIT
OH woNDE1 QUEEN GROUP

In the district court at Reno this
week, Henry Weber was awarded possess
sion of the Queen group of claims at
Wonder. the ownership of which has
been in dispute since last winter. The
property consists of 134 acres and was
one of the first locations of the district.
The original locators of the property
first gave an option to the Gibraltar In
vestment company of Denver, on the ex-
piration of which Weber secured the
same terms The original owners then
got into dispute and an Injunction was
issued restraining all parties from dis
posing of any part of the property until
title was settled. This Injunction was
disregarded by Seymour, one of the To-
Gators, who sold his interest to the
Gibraltar company, and was brought
into contempt of court. The final deci-
sion awards the property to Weber on
the exercising of his option.

Tonopah. Dec. 19.--The week that has
passed has been history making
epoch for this camp. and Tonopah bids
fair to start on a new lease of life, from
the developments which are rapidly be-
ing made. Two most important matters
have come to pass. The FIRST was the
announcement that the long talked OF
mill for the Tonopah Extension mine
was to be started. and that plans are al
ready on the way for the entire plant
The second was the discovery OF ore un-
derneath the dacite intrusion In the
Montana Tonopah mine.
The last discovery u considered the
most important happening In the camp
since the discovery Of the Mixpah by
Jim Butler in 1900. For more than a
year and a half. the presence OF the
dacite intrusion has made itself known
in the principal mines In the district.
and has operated to the disadvantage Of
the camp as far as investment and
speculation are concerned. 1t affected
the price OF every stock from that OF
the Jim Butler over to the Tonopah Ex-
tension. 1t was a mystery. this fault
in the mines and II was q hard nut to
crack in the hands Of the most expert
engineers. =
There was plenty of ore Ia all the
mines. in the upper levels, but the wise
men of the east figured that what was
little to camp that did not have depth.
Most OF the mines were down to the 600
levels, and bad ore in sight to carry on
their workings and pay dividends for

to cut any figure with the men who had
examined the mines. There was the
depth lacking. and consequently there
was no perpanency to the camp.
This was the way that IT was figured
from the eastern standpoint, and truth
to confess the local men could not say
much, for there was the apparent end
OF the ore and the prices of the stocks
went to smash, and following this there
was a stoppage OF dividends In the ma
jority Of the properties The greatest

membered. was that of the Tonopah Ex-
tension, which had scared to $14 and
SIS share upon the showing: and from
that figure slumped to 81 share.
The engineers of the mine after an in.
spection and thorough examination OF
the situation. decided that there wal
but one thing to do. and that was tc

doing this the diamond drill was brought
into play. II is understood that by this
