WATER IN THE DISTRICT
IS LOOKED UPON AS
GOOD IN WORKINGS
BONANZA ELY FLOW.

Since the flow of water into the
shaft of the Ely Bonanza last week,
there has been much speculation as
to the meaning. II was generally
thought by the public that a new
water level had been established.
/ wo of the most competent mining
men of the district, however, say that
this is not true. The flow is simply.
they believe. from an underground
channel.
Superintendent Willoughby of the
Ely Calumet said in this connection
that no water level had as yet been
established in the district. II doubt
If there is such thing at present, or
If there is a level it varies within
few hundred yards of other shafts.
In proving this ii would be merely
necessary TO cite the case of the
Giroux shaft of the Giroux company
which had to use sinking pumps to
clear the water before they reached
the 200 level. The Alpha, which is
great deal lower than the Giroux,
sunk more than thousand feet be-
fore Ii caught the water. This seems
to prove that the water SO far found
is from underground channels"
d. c. Mcdonald, well known min
ing man and promoter, said: II do
not know where any water level has
been struck in this district. Every
time water has been struck ii seems
10 vary in depth and this would in
dictate many underground channels
rather than a settled level. The
shafts in which water has been
found best illustrate this point. In
the Ruth's incline shaft at about $50
feet water was struck. At the Gil
roux shaft, trifie higher, water was
struck before the 400 was reached.
AT the Eureka il was struck at shall
low depth. The Mcdonald Ely struck
The White Pine news. [volume] (Ely, Nev.) 1906-1910, 1908-05-17

1t at about 400 feet. The Ely Witch
has water at 400. Against this SEEM
ing rule comes the Alpha shaft. which
did not get water until the 1000
level was reached.
Another instance which would
seem to explode the theory of fixed
water level is that of the Ely mine
near the Chairman. About'two years
they had the Bonanza experience. At
about 1875 feet they commenced a
drift north toward the Chairman,
which was deeper than they and al
most dry. After a round of shots
had been fred in the drift nothing
unusual was noticed but the next

NEW YORK. May 10

NEW YORK, May l6.-Today's
stock market showed distinctly the
growth of that strain which must ac-
company prolonged movement OF
prices In one direction. whether the
movement has simply reached an ad-
eouate level TO represent truly the
new basis of values or has overrun II.
The higher prices have gone, the
greater the attraction offered TO the
holder TO sell stocks and realize his
profit. In addition TO that factor an
extensive rise always serves to IN
crease the number of buyers Tor spec
ulation. and SO the pressure on the
market Is multiplied when the hour
OF profit taking arrives.
The market gave evidence early To-
day that the task of sustaining prices
was growing burdensome in race OF
the Increased volume of offerings that
had to be absorbed for that purpose.
The protection of the market, now
ever. was not Abandoned, and the
subsistence of activity on the declines
showed that holders OF stocks felt
their position strong enough TO per-
sist when the rate of profit decreased
TO unattraetiye figures. There was
a vigorous rally toward the last.
News had as little to do with the
action of the market as at any time
RECENTLY. Rumors continued to play
some part In the market, some having
to do with political questions and al
legged assurances to financial inter-
ests from political agents that ac-
counted for the tone of increased con-
L., or market nf late
There were rumors. even more vague,
of coming developments Affecting re-
lations of the great railroad proper
ties. Some of these rumors ran out
to a form that had so little semblance
even of FEASIBILITY that their circu-
lation helped to intensity the suspi-
cion with which the active advance In
prices has come TO be regarded.
Consideration must be given in the
money market outlook : to the pros
pective withdrawal week after next
of another $25. 100000 of govern

that this movement TO Germany will
reach considerable volume. IL Is
highly probable also that the newly
begotten confidence of corporation
borrowers In asking for new accom-
mediation will have considerable eff
feet on the loan item of the banks
In the immediate future. While the
resources at command are plentiful In
the present circumstances, 1t is likely
that they are being drawn upon and
that the surplus OF the New York
banks may begin TO decline.

PUBLIC SPEAKERS

There is nothing so annoying to
the man or woman in public life,
upon whose vocal organs there is
more or less constant strain, as a
C, Id. The irritation of the throat
and bronchial tubes develops hoarse-
ness. and practically renders the vo-
cal organs useless for the time being.
Public speakers. actors and others
whose calling requires the constant
exercise of the voice will find in Vir-
gin Oil of Pine compound pure a
preparation affording speedy relief
for hoarseness. Two or three drops
Of this oil on the tongue, or taken
with a lump of sugar, usually gives
instant relief.
To break up cold quickly 1t Is
recommended as most effective when
mixed with Whisky and Glycerine in
the following proportions: One-half
ounce Virgin Oil of Pine Compound
pure, two ounces Of Glycerine and
ha'f-pint of good Whisky. Shake
we'll and take a teaspoonful of the
mixture every four hours. 1t is bet
ter to purchase the ingredients sep
arately and prepare the mixture at
home.

Heinfelt has been greatly hamper.

uNRULY TRUSTS

Gen. Bonaparte, in statement made
here yesterday. gave his views as to
whether the trusts are supporting
Bryan or Taft He said:

mean by trust The vast MAORI
fty Of our prosperous corporations,
like the vast majority OF our sub
stantial business men, are honest
and law-abiding and If all are to be
Jumped under the same term I have
no doubt that the great bulk OF
them do support Mr.. Taft.
'If. however, you mean by a trust
a combination whether of individ-
uaIs or OF corporations or of both in

der the ban of our so-called anti
trust laws the case is different.

RELIGION PLAYS
IMPORTANT PART

ST. Johns, n. F., Nov. 2.-Follow-
ing a spirited campaign, the qua
drennial general election in New
foundland is being held today. New
foundland is the only portion of
British North America which en-
joys an Independent government
apart from Canada. The population
of 100000 is distributed in about
1900 fishing hamlecs, large and
small, around 5000 miles of sea-
board The result o: this widely
scattered population is that the re
turns of today's election will hardly
be obtainable before the end of tn
week.
Sir Robert Bond. the premier,
leading the government forces in the
contest, and the opposition is headed
by Sir Edward Morris, who until a
year ago was attorney general in the
Bond cabinet
The question of religion plays an
important part in the political con
test. Years ago. when government
was first granted, the majority OF
the inhabitants of Newfoundland
were Catholics, and the early pre-
miers were of that faith. Emigra-
ton however. attracted the Catho
lies largely to western Canada ant
to the United States. and the ascen
dancy in Newfoundland swung into
Protestant hands. The present pre-
mier, Sir Robert Bond, is Protes
, tant, while Sir Edward Morris, the
opposition leader, is Catholic. Thu
result of the election, therefore
hinges on the question as to wheth
err the Protestant majority Is will
ing to accept a Catholic premier.
