Supervisors r1eeting

At meeting of the Board of
Supervisors, held on Saturday Last
for the purpose of considering the
management Of the county poor
farm, it was decided to continue
the agreement with Mr. Winner
until the close of the present year,
at which time the terms Of the
present Board, as we'll as that of
the Supt, will expire.
1t is probable that, after January
Ist., a different plan Of running
the farm will be adopted, and it
will most likely conform closely
TO that outlined by the State.

ATTORNEY GENERAL
ON TRUST COMBINES
LAW ENOUGH-ALL THAT is
NEEDED IS ENERGETIC APPLI-
CATION OF SAME.

WASHINGTON. Aug 13.-Attor.
ney General Bonaparte enthroned
himself in Office yesterday again and
there was much curiosity to know
what he really proposed to do about
bringing criminal prosecutions.
He was asked specifically on this
matter. He evaded it as neatly as
If he were a Philadelphia lawyer and
not a Baltimore lawyer
"Will there be criminal proceed
ings under the Sherman law in the
Hartman matter?" was asked.
THAT is something l cannot tell
you anything definite about was
the answer
THE department of justice is 60
ing along with the laudable intention
of prosecuting anybody against
whom it has a good case-that is, a
case sufficient to secure conviction
for serious offense. 1t does not
care about small fry or trifing Of
fenses or cases in which the outlook
points to acquittal. But this is a
statement of the general policy of
the department. AS to the Hartman
case, am not prepared to speak. .
Considering Hartman.
"a number of printed statements
seem to indicate an intention on your
part to prosecute" it was suggested
to Mr.. Monaparte.
81 am not quite sure how much
the newspapers have improved on
what l have said," he replied.
"You can generally trust them to
make it better than what you say,
but have not said anything definite
on the Hartman cases, beyond the
fact that they were under considera-
tion."
Mr.. Bonaparte was asked the
status of several other trust matters
pending with his department. There
was nothing new, he said, regarding
the smelter trust, i, being simply one
of the numerous cases that are in a
state of investigation. He laughed
when asked about the alleged action
against the coffin trust.
Some Other Trusts.
Il have been asked to take up the
laundry women's trust he said
facetiously, "but | have not heard
about the one that makes collins, and
thereby causes it to be cheaper to
live than to die"
do any of the recent happenings
cause you to believe that 1t would
be well to strengthen the Elkins
law" Mr.. Bonaparte was asked.
1.-THE Elkins law" he answered,
has worked pretty well as far as
have been able to notice. We have,
you know, in the Hepburn act, a pro-
vision intended to strengthen the Ell
kins law and l am inclined to think
that just at this moment we are tole-
rably well provided with law
against rebating. What we seem to
need is an energetic use of the Elk
ins law and I do not think there is
any special reason to complain on
that score at this moment.

FOUND RICH NINE IN
DEEP CREEK COUNTRY
Three Local Men Believe They Have
Located Very Valuable
Property.

City Marshal Hudgens. Francis
Brim and Joseph Oldfield of this city
have made strike in the Deep Creek
country that promises to be one of
the biggest made in that section of
the county in long while.
About ten days ago the three gen
tlemen located IA claims. The ore
runs in gold, silver and copper, and
will go from $66 to 1927 ton. The
ledge extends from six to eighteen in
ches in width and the ore on the very
top gives indications of some rich
rock below.
The claims were located years ago
and ore was shipped by team to the
Ward smelter. Even at this expense,
necessary in shipping it, good pro-
fit was made. The owners of the
property allowed it to go by default
and it remained untouched until the
three local men relocated it. There
is an old shaft on one of the claims
that is 25 to 80 feet deep.
Mr.. Hudgens will leave Friday for
the property and will make arrange
ments for commencing developme mt
work. He and the other gentlemen
intend to work the mine if the prop
erty proves to be what they feel ii
will. The property is about rs miles
from Ely and is about so miles
southeast of Curries.

eral groups of claims of greater OF
less value in the Ely camp.
"Mr. Pheby had left for the west
before the news leaked out and il
was therefore impossible to get an!
particular details on the transaction
1t was stated, however, that the
properties going into the deal in
cluded all the holdings of the Pheby

everything controlled by Tex Rick

that there is much other ground il

SURPRISED At
GROWTH OF ELY
j. II. CLAIR, ORIGINAL PRONIOT-
FIR OF NEW YORK-NEVADA
co., VISITED HERE.

]. R. Clair, prominent financier
of New York, who has been visiting
this district during the past few days,
left for the east yesterday morning.
Mr.. Clair was the original promot-
er of the New York Nevada Copper
company, which purchased what is
now known as the % claims of the
Ruth group, belonging to the Neva-
da Consolidated, in 1900, for SAL
900. This company was foated at
that time and where the old work
ings now known as keystone are, was
the seat of the principal operations
of that company in this district. The
Ruth ground, together with the
water rights of Murry creek, former
ly belonged to this company, of
which Mr.. Clair was the secretary
and treasurer.
Being now heavily interested in
tine Nevada Consolidated and the
Cumberland Ely, Mr.. Clair came to
Ely to thoroughly look over these
two properties and before leaving,
expressed himself as much aston
ished at the wonderful strides that
-ly has made recently and predicted
that it would be but short time be-
fore this was one of the greatest min
ing camps of the west in point of
production as well as in population.
Mr.. Clair was much impressed
with the vast ore deposits as are now
opened up by the Nevada COnsoli-
dated and the Cumberland Ely.

BABY HAD A SPASM;
WOMEN WERE EXCITED

There was considerable excite
ment yesterday afternoon at the resi-
dence of o. Hermansen on east Ault-
man street. The women in that
neighborhood were greatly excited
and for few minutes all kinds of
rumors were afioat as to the cause
of the trouble. DR.. Notrebe hap
pened to be passing by when the ex-
citement was at it's height and was
summoned to the Hermansen resi-
dence, where he found Mr.. Herman
sens two-year-old son in a comatose
condition. The doctor first thought
the child was dead, as there appeared
to be no pulsation. After working
upon the babe few minutes, how
ever, the child commenced to recover
and soon regained consciousness. 1t
seems the little fellow was suffering
with a spasm, due to the arrival OF
his teeth. He is still quite ill. but
will probably recover.

Of JAPANESE GO THROUGH
MANEUVERS At DEAD Of NIGHT

A squad of Japanese were seen at
about 2 o'clock yesterday morning
going through military drill near
the wagon road leading from Ely to
Ely City.
Are the Japanese of Nevada and
of Ely in particular preparing for the
war that has SO freely been discussed
for the past few weeks? Is the ques-
tion that confronts the people of Ely.
A large number of these foreign
ers are now employed by companies
operating in this district, over so of
them being engaged at the present
the water mains of this city.
These Japanese live in five large
tents that have been erected about
half way between Ely City and this
place, where the wagon road crosses

the Nevada Northern tracks.
About 2 o'clock yesterday morning
squad consisting of several men,
were seen marching and counter
marching under the direction of a
leader, or officer, keeping perfect
step and going through all the man
euvers of a military drill, near the
site of this Japanese camp. Whether
they were training in anticipation of
an American-Japanese war in the
near future, as has been SO loudly
talked and written of during the past
few weeks, is not known. This much
is certain to the News. These men
are going through their army tac-
tics the same as they would should
war be approaching, and are doing
this in the dead of night.
But few weeks ago reports were
flashed over the country that several
Japanese had been arrested in San

Diego, California, and were accused
of having in their possession draw
ings of the fortifications along the
Pacific coast. From that date to this
rumors have been current and in
many instances it has been shown
that the Japanese OF the country
were actively engaged in making
preparations that were in no way in
dicative of peaceful future.
Whether those that are now in Ely
have any definite information or or
ders from their native country as to
their present actions or not is mere
ly matter of conjecture.
Why are they practicing military
drills in time of peace and in for
eign country?
In some instances it might be for
the purpose of exercise, but these
men are engaged nine hours of the
day in the hardest of manual labor.
