MASON VALLEY
HAS BIG STRIKE
Great Body of 8 Per Cent Cop
per Ore Is Tapped in
New Ground.

The information is released by LEV
HUMPHREYS. consulting engineer for the
Cumberland-Ely and the Mason Valley
Copper companies that a whaling big
strike has been made in the latter
property during the past few days.
After penetrating the first great body
OF fine ore in the No. tunnel work
ings cross-cut was started for the
opposite side of the great lode. For
forty or fifty feet the values encoun-
tered were very small and at times
the ground would hardly assay at all.
A few days ago, while Mr.. HUMPHREYS
was at the property, the ore commenced
to come in again and when he left
home the cross-cut had gone twenty
feet into a solid mass of ore that aver
aged better than per cent copper,
with nothing to indicate when it's linn
its would be reached.
Bodies of high-grade ore from $50 to
200 feet thick are common in the Ma
son Valley mine, and there is every
reason to expect that the disclosures
in new ground are going to prove
equally as important as anything here
tofore encountered. This latest disclos-
ure shows how important the No.
tunnel is going to be to the company.
1t has been started at an elevation
that win give $50 feet vertical depth
from the No. tunnel. and once the ore
bodies have been opened through it
will add millions OF tons to the re-
serves in the mine.
E. G. Kidder is now over at camp
hurrying work on the neg townsite,
located across the Walker river from
Yerington and within a mile or two of
all the principal mines on that side of
the range. Streets are being graded
and other work being done in prepara-
ton for the building boom that is just
ready to break loose. Mr.. Kidder will
likely be there several weeks vet.

GEN. BALDWIN IS INDICTED
ACCUSED OF CRIMINAL LIBEL
AFTER CIVIL SUIT.
B. F. Harris, Charged With Steal
ing Hogs, Was Awarded g.
Damages.

CHATTANOOGA. Tenn. August s.
Brig. Gen. Theodore A. Baldwin. U.S.A..
retired. it was announced today. has been
indicted In Catoosa county, Ga. on a
charge of criminal libel on account of a
communication which was sent to Col.
Kerr. who was at the time in command
Of the 18th Cavalry at Fort Oglethorpe.
a judgment was given against him in
favor Of b. F. Harris. superintendent of
the target range at Catoosa, as result
of the same communica ton.
At the trial of the damage suit 1t was
alleged that the letter in question practi-
cally charged Harris with stealing hogs
belonging to Gen. Baldwin,, who is pro-
prietor of Catoosa Springs.
Harris sued Gen. Baldwin for S1O.0OI
damages and the case came to trial last
week at Ringgold. Ga. Gen. Baldwin ad-
nitted he had sent such a communication
to Col. Kerr at Fort OgIethorpe. but
pleaded that he was not guilty of libel
and was not liable for damages because
the letter sent was a privileged COM
municatiOn.
He claimed that while he has retired
from active service he is still an officer
and that any communication sent by him
to another officer in regard to any mat
ter wherein the government welfare is al
stake is in regular line of duty and is a
privileged communication.
The jury returned verdict for s.
against Gen. Baldwin.

WHO SHOULD PAYp
District Government and Potomac
Electri: Light Company at Odds.

Has sthe Potomac Electric Light and
Power Company authority to charge the
District for the cost of extending its con-
duits and wires from the curb line to the
Eastern market house for electric light
purposes?" asks w. c. Haskell, sealer of
weights and measures of the District, who
has supervision Of the Districts markets.
II am Of the opinion that 1t has no such
authority. There Is no judicial decision
known to me which determines this oues-
tion." Corporation Counsel Thomas has
replied.
Like Mr.. Haskell. the corporation coun-
sci believes the company should pay for
all construction to the building line. This
action is said to be contrary to the policy
OF tho company. The electrical engineer
who has boon consulted In the matter
says the question Of tho construction from
the curb to the building Tine for electric
wiring - q live one and should be settled
for all time.
1.-The Supreme Court OF the District. -
Mr.. Thomas says In q report to the Com
missioners in tho matter. ''has decided
that gas service pipes outside of tho build
ing line. although paid for by tho con-
sumner. are the property OF the gas COM
panies.''
In view of Mr.. Thomas opinion Mr.
Haskell has recommended that the au-
ditoF be directed to refuse payment for
the work In question. This Recommended
ton has been approved by the Commits
Sioners.
