Development work and equipment for the Perseverance and Sheep Creek properties amounting to many hund- red thousand dollars was outlined by Col.

 J. s. Beasley has returned from Niblack where he has been doing assessment on a group of mineral loca- tions of which he is the owner. He reports having struck the ledge on one of his locations, and is very much encouraged over the outlook for the development of something unusually good. He also reports new and rich strike in the lower level of the Nib lack mine, were they are now hoisting about 75 tons ot fine looking ore per day.
 The barge America, now at Niblack, has been cleared from the coustom house at this place with 2,500 tons of ore, though she is still lying at the mine waiting for tug to tow her out. The ore is said to be the best ever shipped from the mine, carrying val ues that will yield profit euen at pres ent market prices for the red metal. What is better is the assurance that the ore bodies from which. this cargo was mined are apparently much larg- CT and more permanent in character than those encountered in the upper
 levels. These ore deposits lie at a depth uf over POO feet below ocean level.

IRISH ATHLETES
WANT TO REMAIN
WOULD STICK AROUND If ANY
CHANCE WAS OFFERED
Eligibility Question May Bother Men
from Emerald Isle Who Desire
to Represent America
in London

NE WYORK, Nov. H.-Con Leahy, the
Irish champion high jumper. and Dennis
Murray, formerly a champion sprinter in
Ireland want to stay in the United States
and become citizens. The two athletes
are now trying to find out whether they
will be eligible for the American team
at London's Olympic games next summer.
If they are they will stay here and take
the positions which have been offered
them. If the English and American COM
mittees think that the men are not ell
gible they will go back to Ireland and
compete for that country next summer.
coming back to the United States to
settle soon after the games.
Leahy and Murray have been here dur
ing the summer and want to stay, but
there is sure to be a protest If the Ameri-
cans try to use men who have Just come
across the water Both are sure to score
points, and with their help the American
team would be practically invincible Still
there would be sure to be more or less
argument, and the committee would be
charged with ringing men who should
have competed for another country. The
points of the Irish pair should go to the
credit of England, and just because the
men do not want England to receive
credit for their work Is no reason why
the American team should receive them
The pair called on James e. Sullivan,
president of the A. A. u, a couple of
days ago and put the question to him.
Mr.. Sullivan has no authority to decide
the question, but has written to the chair
man of the games at London and will
abide by his decision. 1t is the opinion
of the majority of American athletes and
officials that Murray and Leahy should
not be allowed to represent America.
