JACK London
BACK On VISIT

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 27.-Ac-
companied by his wife, Jack London,
who writes stories and espouses So
cialism, and for whose safety in his
fifty-foot boat, the Shark, some fears
have been expressed, returned TO
San Francisco Saturday on the Gee
anic steamship Mariposa.
London says he will embark on
the Mariposa again next Sunday to
return to Papeete, where he left the
Shark for further repairs to the gas
engines, which have been botherine
him ever since he left this port.
April 22d last, London left San
Francisco, after a period of delays
caused by attachments for debts
placed on the Shark. He returned to
find that an Oakland bank had, on
Thursday, recorded a mortgage upon
his home for similar reasons. He
made light of this and said it was
merely little business arrangement

GOLDFIELDER SAYS
HART IS HUMMING

Hart, California, is a hummer in
the language of a resident of that
place, who has recently written to
Goldfield. Lots are increasing in
value and leases are under contract
to begin work February 1, at which
time 200 men will start work. Peo-
pie are going into the place daily,
and the population is becoming
larger constantly. A telephone has
been installed giving communication
with Searchlight, Barnwell and Lea
stalk. There is a contract let for
the daily delivery of 5000 gallons of
water into the city. The contractor
is already at work on this improve
ment, the pipes are at Barnwell and
it is expected that in a short time
the work will be completed. Three
general merchandise stores and two
assay offices as well as many other
kinds of stores have been opened,
and altogether the horizon appears
to be painted with silver lining
Thirty-five leases have been let,
and the leasesFo the Orc, the Lee
Foster and Goldfield Big Chief are
shipping ore. The Todhunter and
Aldridge lease struck pay ore on
January goth. Hart and Hit are
sacking ore on the original strike.
Mcmillan and associates, of the Mo-
hawk-Jumbo lease in this city, have
secured lease on the Fairview prop
erty, and have already some of their
outfit on the ground. New samples
showing free gold are being brought
to light every day. Trib.

UBEHEBEMINES
ARE Doing we'll

George Monroe arrived in Rhyolite
Monday after an eleven months So
journ in the Ubehebe mining district,
where he was fortunate enough to
secure three groups of claims. The
Elbe group contains two claims, To-
Gated north Of the Ulida, and carries
copper principally, with some gold
The Looney group OF five claims has
strong quartz lead in granite, and
carries gold. The Gale group of four
claims is south of the Ulida property
and is copper proposition.
In doing the assessment work on
some of the Elbe ground a copper
lead was found which proved to be
nineteen feet between walls, and
samples assayed at the Michigan
School of Mines returned IS per cent
copper. Mr.. Monroe brought some
samples in with him that should run
much higher than that The Looney
has a ledge that can be traced for
over 1000 feet, with an average
width of eight feet.
The Ulida property, near neigh
Dor of Monroe's, is working steadily
and is backed by New York capital
lists. Salsberry has let contract to
run 500-foot tunnel to tap the King
shaft at 500-foot depth. The shaft
was sunk 100 feet in ore and a cross
cut run 26 feet all in ore, carrying
copper and gold.
The Cerro Gordo in that same Sec
ton is an old mine which is said to
have produced twenty millions of ore
already. 1t changed hands the first
of the year and is now owned by the
Four Metals Company, the purchase
price being given out as 100000.
Monroe has great faith in the Ube-
hebe section, saying nothing can pre-
vent it's becoming great mining dis
trict, provided they can get sufficient
capital in there to develop the veins.
1t takes time and money to make
copper mines. He has interested with
him some prominent copper operators
from Houghton, Mich, the country
where they are willing to go to the
! middle of the earth If necessary to
get the ore. A party of them are ex-
pected out here within week to go
over the Ubehebe district, and Mon
roe's ground particularly. If 1t looks
good to them they will do some ex-
tensive mining.
In speaking of a possibility of a
railroad into that section, Monroe
says with the exception of one divide,
it would be an easy matter to get
line in there. Keller would be an
easy point to reach. The mineralized
portion of the country is large, at
least twenty miles long. Many pros
pectors are busy in the hills sur
rounding the camp.-Rhyolite Her

Thre is no doubt in the world that
San Francisco is again going to be

DEATH At HAND
Of HIGHLANDER

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 27,-As a
result of the war between the Hop
Sing and Bing Kong tongs, despite
their joint assurances of a truce,
Hong XII was shot and probably fat
ally wounded by Lem Lung, an al
legged highlander, on the stairway of
a clearinghouse on Dupont street, be-
tween Jackson and Pacific, shortly
after midnight Sunday.
He was shot through the back,
both bullets passing through the in
testines, and inflicting wounds from
which his recovery is deemed almost
impossible.
Hong XII was taken to the Central
Emergency hospital, where every
thing possible was done to make the
wounded man comfortable, but ow-
ing to the shock and dangerous ma
ture OF his wounds, it was deemed
unwise to operate.

WALL STREET IS
BECOMING HUMBLE

CHICAGO, Jan. Walter Well
man, wiring to the Record-Herald,
says that Wall street has been whip
ped and humbled by the American
people, led by President Roosevelt
Many proud heads have fallen under
the guillotine. Many men who a few
months ago were arrogantly pro-
claiming themselves as great powers
in the political, financial and social
worlds, are now in disgraceful exile.
Wall street is no longer the great,
dominating power. 1t is now simply
a regenerated trade mart, realizing
that it must conduct itself properly
to prevent complete destruction by
it's master, the American public.
The best minds in the street are
thankful for the reform. They are
amazed at the showing of rottenness,
of overcapitalization, of rebating, of
unfair methods in every line of COM
| mercial life. Now they are anxious
that the laws shall be observed,
eager to remove all provocation to
more agitation and prosecution In
financial New York there are still
hundreds who still give fierce vent
to their hot hatred of Roosevelt and
all who stand with him. But the
men of real power and leadership are
accepting the inevitable situation.

Higher INTEREST
Is DEMANDED

= NEW YORK, Jan. 27.-WaIl street
heard today that the st. Louis and
San Francisco Railroad Company had
borrowed $3,00O,OO0 for one year
from the banking house of Hall, Gar
ten & Co., at the unusually high rate
of 10 per cent. The parties concern
ed would neither confirm nor deny
the report. The company has notes
maturing this year which it must
meet, and the new loan was made
necessary on account of them.
Other railroad companies are now
paying a higher rate of interest than
formerly. The Missouri Pacific yes
terday sold $6,000.0OO of per cent
notes to replace an equal amount of
it's notes maturing February 1st, on
which the interest is ) per cent.
Other railroad corporations find It
necessary now to give at least per
cent. The company which is con
structing the Hudson river tunnels
has arranged for a loan of SIS, 000.-
600 for two years at per cent.

GREEK FATALLY
SHOT BY GREEK

ELY, New, Jan. 27.-Geo. Boze-
masa, Greek saloon-keeper at Nc
Gill, was fatally shot last night in
that town. He was alone in the sa-
loon at the time and was killed by
rifle ball which entered his left
cheek and ranged upward through
the brain, so no statement could be
secured from him as to his assailant
before he died. Cheris Lanpandreroo
a brother-in-law of the murdered
man, has been arrested on suspicion
1t is thought that later developments
will prove the existence of a ven
delta, as much bitterness has existed
between the Greek factions since last
Tuesday when arrests of Greeks were
caused by one of their countrymen.

WAS
TOO DRASTIC

ALBANY, Jan. 27.-The attitude
of the legislature has changed, ap-
parently, this year to a feeling that
the life insurance business may have
been overwhelmed, and that now
the law should be calmly reviewed
and such amendments adopted as ex-
perience has shown to be necessary,
to permit the companies to success
fully conduct their business.
Without doubt, after the illumin-
alton thrown on the subject by fin
ancial conditions during 1907, the
provision limiting the surplus fund
to per cent of the assets, will be
repealed or amended while there is
almost certain to be a change in the
section restricting the expense of new
business and limiting the compensa-
ton of agents.
Many of the legislators were none
too enthusiastic over this expense
provision when originally adopted
and the large falling off in the
amount of new business produced by
the New York companies since il
took effect, so great in every case as
to lead to a reduction in the total
amount of insurance outstanding, to,
gether with the complaint of agents
from far and near that they cannot
handle their business efficiently.
