OLYMPIC COMMITTEE MAY
TAKE UP HALP.N MATTER.

New York, Feb PA man well up
in athletic politics said Thursday that
the question of Matt Halpin's fitness
to manage the American team to the
Olympic games would be discussed
again at the meeting of the American
Olympic committee which will be held
In few days.
The protest against Halpin was
made to the Amateur Athletic Union,
but owing TO the great amount of talk
against Halpin, it is probable that :he
Olympic committee will feel obliged TO
30 into the matter. Some say that
Halpin will be retained as manager
Others say that after he has had a
hearing before the Olympic commit zee
and been exonerated he will gracefully
resign. Halpin himself says he has no
intention Of resigning, and, by the way
he has gone ahead arranging the de-
tails for the trip Of the American ath-
letes to England. il looks as though
lie intended to stay manager.
Another matter likely to come be-
fore the Olympic committee is the
question what action will be taken i'll
case the Canadians enter LongbOat IN
the great London meet. James f. Sui
Ivan said today that there would be
nothing TO say until LOngboat's entry
Is made.
He felt certain. however. that the
English committee would accept no
entry, 10 matter what country the
man represented. if his amateur stand
ing was seriously questioned.

A MARBLE FIND
WHICH PROMISES
OWNERS WEALTH

A. E. Kirkbride was in Nina
Thursday getting supplies and trans
acting business. Mr.. Kirkbride is
connected with the Nevada Black and
Gold Marble company. The property
is located seventeen miles southeast
OF Nina. The company is composed
of the following we'll known citizens:
Frank Meyers, E. w. Davis, George
Davis and q. F. Rason of Yerington;
Col. S. H. Baker of Corning, Califor-
mia; A. e. Kirkbride of Colorado,
and C. A. Root. Messrs. Kirkbride
and e. w. Davis are now on the
ground looking after operations, of
which the preliminaries have been
commenced. The company has
plenty of money in the bank with
which to push the operations in an
energetic manner. Air compressors
and drills will be put in and when
the Quarries have been sufficiently
developed it is expected that regu-
lar shipment of six cars per week
will be kept up. The management is
Tonopah daily bonanza. [volume] (Tonopah, Nev.) 1906-1929, 1908-11-25

now working to get out car load
shipment to be made from Nina as
a test. They purchased the property
from Mr.. Lindsay of Carson City,
who located it some three years ago,
but did little actual development of
the ground.
The marble deposit covers very
extensive area and is what is gener-
ally known as Egyptian black and
gold marble, that and the island of
Sicily being the only place in the
world where it is found until its dis
covery in this section. 1t is used for
ornamental finishing, inside wains-
coating and in soda fountains. The
quality found here has been tested
and is pronounced by experts to be
better than the imported grade. The
market price in New York is $14 per
cubic foot. 1t is very probable that
the company will put in a marble
plant at Nina. The find is certainly
fortunate one and will add greatly
to the wealth of Esmeralda.
