WILL STAY With
The GUGGENHEIMS

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 15.-John
Hays Hammond was in such a fav-
orable general condition in his apart
ments at the Fairmont last night,
thirty-siX hours after his operation
for appendicitis, that the most en-
couraging signs were shown for his
speedy recovery and attainment of a
more rugged physical condition than
he has had during the past two
years.
That the noted mining engineer
has already retired, or that he ex-
poets to retire from the Guggenheim
company, is denied by Hammond
secretary
This report of Mr.. Hammond'3
probable retirement is a rumor that
has arisen again and again" said
Secretary Campbell
1t is generally known that Mr..
Hammond's contract with the COM
pany runs only to March 1st, and as
great deal of interest is taken in
Mr.. Hammond's movements, various
guesses have been INDUCED in as to
what he would do at the expiration
of this contract. All sorts of rea-
sons have been suggested why he
would or would not discontinue his
services with the Guggenheims. But
the chances are that Mr. Hammond
will renew his contract, perhaps un-
der little different form.
He is the general manager of the
Guggenheim Company, and those in
charge of vast mining properties are
practically Mr.. Hammond's own per-.
sonal following. his own appointees.
Mr.. Hammond is man that does not
go out into the field and look for
properties. He relies first upon the
reports of his able assistants and
then makes a personal visit himself
where final judgment is necessary on
proposition.
Mr.. Hammond is only 81, and his
general health is good. but for the
past two years he has been periodic
ally threatened by this chronic ap-
pendicitis, which he was afraid
might overtake him somewhere away
from proper medical attention. So
he submitted to this operation in the
belief that with this handicap re-
moved he would be able to begin
more active career than he has yet
known. one in keeping with his
larger experience

BANK MONEY
WAS ATTACHED

An attachment was levied yester-
day on the money which was placed
in the Nixon National Bank by the
Rawhide Mining and Reduction Com
pany to the credit of j. D. hurry as
payment for his interest in lease
on the Bald Hornet Fraction claim
The suit does not affect the title to
the lease and relates only to a por-
ton of the money paid over to Murrs
for his interest in the lease: Daniel
son claims two-thirds of this money
and the interest which was obtained
from Danielson amounted to one
third of the entire lease. The other
two-thirds interest was purchased by
the Rawhide Mining and Reduction
Company from Thomas Diamond
aud Jack Davis. The total purchase
price of the lease was $4,000.
The Rawhide Mining and Reduc-
ton Company owns much property
in the new camp of Rawhide. The
company is at present operating the
|, X. l.. group, which is considered
one of the best properties in the
camp. The company has an Office in
this city.-Reno Journal.

TURNING OUT
The BEST WORK

Inc blndery of the Bonanza is
turning out the best work in the
city, and it is giving such great salts
faction that anyone who has his work
done there once, never goes anywhere
else. The plant is the finest and
most complete, not only in the State,
but this side of San Francisco. We
can turn out all kinds of work that
is demanded in the offices of lawyers,
brokers, promoters, mining compan-
les, or for any other kind of business.
and we guarantee satisfaction in
every respect. One trial will be sufi-
cient to establish the truth of this
statement. 1t pays to go where only
the best kind of work is done, and
1t pays to patronize home industry.

May Make
Navy Smart
PROMINENT OFFICERS MAY BE
SUBJECTED TO COURT
MARTIAL

WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. 10
Two of the highest officers of the
Navy, and possibly a third, probably
will be court-martialed as result or
recent outspoken utterances reflect
ing on Navy management and naval
construction. It was learned today
that the Administration had been so
incensed by recent criticism that a
wholesale inquiry was likely.
The Navy Department and the
White House have been amazed with
in the last ten days to read in news
papers detailed criticisms in the
Reuterdahl style from three officers
in high repute, two of whom are like
ly to stand by their assertions and
challenge court martial. These Of
fiCers are Caspar +. Goodrich, COM
mandant at the New YORK navy yard:
Rear Admiral Bowman II. McCalla,
. retired Spanish war veteran, and
Rear Admiral George w. Melville, re-
tired, formerly chief of the Bureau
of Steam Engineering and one of the
Jeanette rescue expedition to the
Arctic.
An equally interesting situation
las developed by reason of the re-
port that the Presidents own naval
aid, Commander Sims, in charge of
target practice. U. $. ~, will be one
of those to be Intercepted as to the
sources of Reuterdahl's information.
II is said that Commander Sims had
Reuterdahl as his guest on several OF
the fleet target practice cruises.

When Things
Break Loose
OFFICER TALKS OF
CONDITIONS IN CHINESE
EMPIRE

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, Jan. 90
japanese spies have been logging the
movements of Lieutenant James H.
Walker all the way from Japan to
America.
Right here in San Francisco, dur
ing his brief stay before his depart
ure for the East. this American OIL
Ger has been made the victim or Jap
anese espionage.
Little brown men took up the
scent the moment the officer stepped
outside his hotel and never tagged
in their watchfulness through the
streets and at last even to the rail-
road station from which he departed
tor Washington.
In the Far East, too, notably in
Chefoo and at other Chinese ports
where japanese spies abound. this
American naval officer, in the per-
Torrance of his official duty, has
heen followed about, trai'ed, ana
spied upon.
When Lieutenant Walker. who ar
rived on the Buford three Gays ago,
was seen at the Hotel jefferson yes
terday prior to his departure, he
talked guardedly of the nature of his
recent official studies In Japan and In
Japanese waters, but he spoke very
bitterly of the japanese spies he had
encountered everywhere on his trav-
els and even now in America.
II don't care to go into this mat
ter further" said Lieut. Walker.
But there are some other matters
about which don't mind talking, for
they are matters the American peo-
pie ought to know.
China Preparing for War
There was that Chinese boycott.
for instance. That was an anti
American movement worked up al
most entirely by the japanese. When
China wakes up some DINER people
Will wake up, too. China now IL
drilling an army of nearly million
trained soldiers.
In every one of the twenty-five
great provinces an army Of $1,000
men each is slowly but surely being
but on war footing.
These men are trained by Chinese
military officers who have received
their strategic education in Japan
and right here at our military and
naval academies of West Point ana
Annapolis. They are borrowing our
cwn fire from us just as the japanese
did, when they used TO send their
most promising naval officers to An
napolis and to the British Admiralty
!or schooling.
In my opinion the ablest and
most far-seeing man in China today
IS Ching-Wang-Tai, the president of
the Imperial Military Council, who is
making all these preparations to put
China on war footing.
World Will Be Astonished
II had long talk with him one
time when my business called me to
China, and was profoundly impress
ed by his capacity and ultra-modern
ideas. When the Chinese Empress
Dowager dies | look to see this man
step in with his vast army and seize
the reins of imperial power. As for
the present Emperor Of China. he is
n nonentity who depends entirely on
the goodwill of the Empress Dowa-
ger When things break loose over
there the world will have to sit up
and take notice"
In regard to his official mission in
the Orient and the matter of Japan
ese espionage here ana elsewhere,
Lieut.. Walker preferred not to be
quoted. 1t was matter of keen re-
greet to him that there had been any
publicity whatever about his errand
in the Far East.

A Bad Shot.

A hot headed Irishman accidentally
insulted an equally hot headed French
man, who insisted on fighting a duel
with the Hibernian to wipe out the
slight. The Irishman suggested that
the two of them should each draw a
card from a pack, and the one who
drew the lowest was to go into an adj
joining room and blow his brains out.
The Frenchman demurred at first, but
finally fell in with the idea, and the
two opponents drew out the cards, one
of which was bound to carry death IN
it's wake. The Irishman drew the low
est card, and, with a smile, he charged
his revolver and betook himself off to
a small anteroom to complete the trag-
edy. Presently a loud report rang out,
and the white faced people ran wildly
to the little anteroom, fully expecting
to see the Irishman a CORY corpse. In
stead he came coolly along the passage
to meet them, and as they stared Won
deringly at him he cried:
"Begorra, OF missed meself!'
