HUSBANDS TRAGIC END
HASTENS DEATH MRS. BURTON
Wife of Promoter Shot at Nina sue
cumbs in Chicago.

CARSON, Feb. 10.=Mrs. Francis
l.. Burton. the invalid wife of Fran
els l.. Burton. the attorney of Nina,
who was shot and killed some time
ago by Editor Buck, of the Rawhide
Rustler, died in Chicago five DAYS
ago as a result of the illness with
which she has been afflicted for the
past ten years. During Burton
stay in Carson City he was spoken
kindly of by some because of the de-
yotion he showered on Mrs. Burton,
although she was bed-ridden and
practically burden on his hands,
neeessitating his wheeling her around
daily in a chair, and it is because of
this and the fact that Burton was
killed in gun fight, that some say
she died of a broken heart. At the
time of her death she was living at
260 East 18th street, in Chicago
1t is probable that the death of
Burton fastened that of his wife, al
though the main cause of her death
was undoubtedly infiammatory rheu-
matism which had made her bed
ridden invalid for ten years.

MEN FROM
RESUM|NG WORK IN
GOLDE|ELD MINES

GOLDFIELD, Feb. Work was
not resumed on the different leases
of the Consolidated and Florence
ground. About rs per cent of the
| Western Federation of Miners who
are out on the strike were at the
Florence Annex and through their
numbers and talk those who applied
for employment decided it would not
be safe to go to work and they left
the property. Superintendent Jones
asked them to stay but none did.
The Western Federation men or at
least the spokesman demanded the
old scale of wages and that no ques-
lions should be asked with regard to
whether man belonged to the West
ern Federation or not. From the An
mex the crowd of piekets went to the
Little Florence and by force of num-
bers as well as by pleadings got the
men who are ready to go to work
there to return to their homes. Then
the crowd went to the Rogers-Syndi-
cate lease and was equally successful
there.
One non-union miner said last
night that outside of the insistenee
OF the union men and the use of the
word "scab" that he had nothing of
which to complain. He was of the
opinion, however, that the intrusion
of the radicals of the Western Fed
Grafton should be stopped by the
companies that do not want to hire
miners affiliated with that organiza
ton in any way and to give protec-
ton to the honest miner who is seek
ing employment.

At BONANZA MOUNTAIN

The sensation in the Bullfrog dis
trict is the big strike in the west
crosscut from the bottom of the 300
foot winze in the Denver claim of
the Tramps Consolidated. The strike
was made last Friday afternoon and
on Saturday, according to we'll au-
thenticated reports, showed feet of
ore ageraging $164.40 in gold. II
this shoot of high grade ore shall
prove to be permanent, as is now ex-
pected, this discovery will contribute
largely toward restoring the valua-
ton of properties on Bonanza noun
tain and its environs to the figures
which formerly prevailed. Beyond
question, Bonanza mountain, up to
the moment this strike was made,
was a huge disappointment, and with
the exception of the Tramps, nearly
all the companies operating on Bon
ANA mountain discontinued work at
the first sign of the recent financial
panic.

PENNSY MAY ERECT
COAL PIERS HERE

There has been a well defined rumor
in circulation here for several days
that the Pennsylvania Railroad Com
pany intends to remove its coal piers
from Philadelphia to Wilmington and
that the big piers viii go up on the
river front below Edge Moor. Officers
of the Cherry Island Mash Company
while admitting that they had heard
the rumors. declared that no offer for
their land on the river front had been
made by the railroad company.
The Pennsylvania Railroad Company
already owns about 200 acres of the
marsh opposite the city. About 20Oc
feet Of this land fronts on the Chris
tiana river some distance below the
mouth Of the creek and is undesirable
as a site for a coal distributing point,
the Chirstiana river at that point being
too narrow TO accommodate many col
liers. It IS said that this tract Of land
win eventually be used by the railroad
company as an addition to its present
extensive Wilmington freight yards.
According to the rumor respecting a
change in the location of the Green
wich coal piers. the company has pro-
vided for an expenditure of S3O00,000 for
the project.
