KINGMhN, July i.--Some day Mo- have county will supply tho steel plants of the world witt molybdenum. Tne mines of molybdenitc ores, in the Ce. dar district, arc the largest ever dis. covered in the world and are, so far as known, the only veins in which the ore occurs in quartz in regular strcaks, or disseminated through the vein. In that locality there are veins averaging from one foot Co fifteen feet in width everyone of which carries molybdenitc. While the mineral occurs with copper it can be readily separated, less than one half of one per cen, copper remain ing in the concentrate.
 Excitement over oil continues to grow in the Virgin field and prepara' ton is being made by the Rhyolite peo' pie to put down three new wells. So far the wells arc producing nearly 200 barrels daily and the gas in the Down. ~ we'll is increasing in intensity, mak' ing it probable to obtain flow by shooting the well. The Clark people are figuring on 2 branch line of road ,o th, wells and are ready to enter into contract to take large part of tho product of the field for fuel purposes

 VERY RICH ROCK
(From Fridays Daily.)

With samples of new and very pro. missing mineral find made early this year in the new copper country tribu. tary to the Arizona and California rail road, J. w. Fuller, Harry Annie and Dan Ewcr arrived here yesterday from their camp five and half miles from mile post 6S on the A. and c. railroad They came overland by wagon, having ceased operation on their property un- tll September on account of the heat, when they will return and build a wa. gon road to their holdings, from which they will commence making regular shipments of high grade gold and gold and copper ore, They left two carloads of shipping ore on their dumps. which they will dispose of as soon as they complete n road to the mines.
 Their ten locations cover two large veins, one carrying very rich gold ore and the other gold and copper orc of shipping grade. Fuller says that there were no prospeetors in their section last winter, the richness of the veins being yet unknown to the outside world. He attributes the absence of prospectors in that district to the fall in the price of copper and the general belief among minng men that the ores of the district arc all copper bearing which IS mistake. Prospcetors nnd miners arc swarming in and around th,
 larqua iIala and Iarcuver ranges az ha ul
 neglecting to prospect other ranges ir the country commonly believed to hay, only copper bearing veins.

deals with the issuance of free passes

the matter of issuance OF tickets ana

The ruling is as follows:
Numerous inquiries having been

named in the railroad commission law
and also whether common carriers
NAV issue tickets or mileage books

mon carriers by publication of sched
ules or otherwise and charge the same
TO such persons, settlement in money
to be made at stated periods by the
party owing the balance OF the ac'
count. the railroad commissioners
think proper to make general rulings
on these subjects for the information
of the common carriers and OF the
public
"They rule therefore:
Il. That they have no authority
to authorize the Issuing Of free
passes TO any other persons than
those named in section 2919 of the
general statutes of the state.
50 That common carriers have no
right to issue free passes to any other
persons than those named in that sec

and their immediate families depend
ant upon them.
&C Officers and employees of other
railroad companies who give like
passes in exchange to the railroad
company issuing such passes.
ID Persons in charge of live stock
shipped from point of shipment to
destination and return. but in such
case there must be no discrimination
among persons.
''3. That tickets or mileage books
cannot be sold on. credit whether by
way of mutual accounts or otherwise
