CURTAILMENT
OF SHIPMENTS

The Nevada Goldheld Reduction CON-
pany and the Western Ore Purchasing
company have notified mine operators
and leasers throughout the district that
they will decline to receive any more
~consignments of ore until the financial
situation Is relieved. This action Is the
direct result of the smeiter trust reauir-
ing forty-hve days in which to make re-
turns on ores received from all shippers.
In discussing the decision to refuse
further consignments of ore. an Official
of the Western Ore Purchasing company
said:
1--WE have decided TO suspend opera
leave our money in the bank. We have
been paying cash for all ore received
as soon as It was sampled. We have
had to wait from sixty to seventy-hve
days for returns from the smeiter. of
which thirty days or thereabouts was
consumed In getting the ore to market
and getting II sampled. If II happened
that one or more cars of a lot was side
tracked on the way. II required o still
longer time. Recently the smelters.
which have required thirty days from
the time the ore was sampled. to make
returns. have extended the time limit
to forty-hve days and we were forced
to notify our customers that we would
require thirty days in which to make
settlement. ] am In hopes that we will
again be able to return to the cash pay
ment system when the financial situa-
ton clears. For the present we have
considered 1t best to suspend operations
entirely"
The same reason that impelled the
samplers to suspend operations. has
caused the Consolidated and other big
producers to cease shipping ore to the
smelters. The Consolidated has ceased
taking out any more ore from its prop
critics than can be conveniently handled
at the Kinkead and Combination mills,
about 100 tons a day. The Mohawk
Jumbo Is shut down to permit a new
underground survey and consequently
will not be producing for another
week at least. The Little Florence will
continue taking out ore but will not ship
until different conditions obtain.
Until the samplers are ready to re-
ceive ore, we will store It," said DR.. w.
X. Robinson. We have ample funds to
operate with until the expiration of the
lease on February 5. II necessary. i
think, however, that the samplers will
be ready to resume business shortly and
the fact that 1t will require a little
longer to get settlements will make no
material difference to U.S."
Other producers will also continue
work, dumping or storing their output
until the samplers resume operations.
Naturally the output Of the camp will
be practically confined to the ore that is
treated at the Consolidated mills and
perhaps an occasional small shipment of
high grade to the smelters. until there
is a reimbursement of conditions.

While drifting Is being pushed forward on the rem me
crosscut is being driven ahead to tap the parallel vein that
produced the picture ore on the 3o0-foot level. This vein,
which. when first encountered was nearly vertical. has
turned and now dips toward the other vein and Manager ].
F. Lane, manager for the Warner Stewart company, which
financed and controls the lease. believes that when the
junction of the two veins is found. they will have the great
est body Of high grade ore that was ever uncovered In the
district-even If the latest strike should not develop into
a record breaking bonanza
Manager Lane gives credit for the good work and record
breaking progress that has lately been made on the lease to
Superintendent J. F. Meickie. who took charge on the first Of
the present month.
The strike comes at a peculiarly opportune time. The
financial upheavaI in the east has made it extremely dinncuit
to secure the necessary funds to carry on the extensive oper-
atoms Of the Warner Stewart company in Goldheld and other
sections of the state and country. in spite of the firms ex-
ceptional standing In the financial world and extensive re-
sources. The closing OF the banks in this city tied up the
funds that were Immediately available and the refusal Of
the samplers to receive any more ore put the finishing
touches on the already trying situation Manager Lane had

CONSOLIDATED STOPS
sMELTER SHIPMENTS

The recent announcement of the
smelter trust hat hereafter returns on
ore would be made only at the expira-
ton of As days has resulted In the de-
termination of the Goldfeld Console
dated Mines company to ship no more
ore until more satisfactory arrange-
ments can be made.
The immediate result of the smelter
trusts ultimatum is the cutting down
of the forces employed on all the Con-
solidated properties. The mines rave
not been closed but no ore is being
taken out, except such as can be nan
died by the company itself, in it's local
mills. George wingfeld summarized
the situation in a few words yesterday.
He said:
1.-The smelters want to pay at their
convenience and not ours. so we have
decided to stop further shipments. We
ave 139 cars of ore between here and
Millers that has not been sampled and
we have been notified hat the smelters
will pay for the ore we have in transit.
under the same conditions that have
heretofore prevailed. We have not shut
down the Mohawk and other Console
dated properties. Extraction of ore has
ceased at the Mohawk and We are con-
filming our work there to sinking the
shaft to greater depth and running a
winze from the 45O-foot level. At the
Red Top. only enough ore is being taken
out to keep the Kinkead mill in opera
ton. about twenty tons a day. The
production of the Combination is also
curtailed. only ore enough being taken
out to keep the mill running. probably
10 tons a day"
The action of the smelter trust will
undoubtedly result in considerable In
convenience to the other producing
properties in the district but so far
shipments are going forward as usual.

SUPREME COURT
Decisions of Interest in This Section Of
the State

At the session of the Supreme Court
of Louisiana held in New Orleans Mon
day decisions of interest to this section
Of the State were rendered as follows
Parish of Red River vs. Parish of
Caddo.-Red River and DeSoto are ad-
joining parishes and are bounded north
by the parish of Caddo. The initial point
of the line between Caddo and DeSoto
is by statute the intersection of Bayou
Pierre and of the township line running
east and west between townships IA and
IS, whence the line runs west. The mi
tial point of the line between Caddo and
Red River is by statute this same inter
section, whence the line runs east, along
the township line. Held, that said town
ship line, beginning at its intersection
with Bayou Pierre and running east, is
the boundary between Caddo and Red
River, and that said boundary line being
thus unmistakably established, and the
fixing of it being the sole object of this
suit, if becomes unnecessary to inquire
whether the western boundary line of
