some of which should interseet the

Tonopah Elk.
The work of blocking out the ore be-
tween the $50 and 600-foot levels con
tinues in this property. Thus far two
raises have been sent up from the 600
foot level and made connection with
the 550-foot level. Another raise on
the same body of ore and from the
same level is up about 40 feet and will
probably break through next week.
Still another raise has been started
west of the other three raises and is
now up Is feet. These -four raises are
80 feet apart from each other, thus
blocking out the ore body for over 200
feet. The average width of the vein,
as shown in these workings is 5 feet,
all of shipping grade, while that in the
two westerly raises shows good milling
values. Prospecting work is being car
ried on on the 400 and 710-foot levels.
where crosseuts are being sent out to
pick up ore bodies which are thought to
exist. Ralph C. Rowland, N of Mr..
Krumb's assistants, is still working
away measuring and sampling the vari-
Gus bodies of ore throughout the mine.
Mr.. Krumb will be here as soon as he
has sufficiently recovered from his re-
cent sick spell. The mine is in an *
cellent condition and is showing con-
slant improvement as work progresses.
MacNamara
Since the settling of the apex trouble
with the West End Consolidated the
MacNamara people have been ex-
~tremely busy making preparations to
work the eastern end of the property,
which has lain idle since the injunction
was granted against them some two
! years ago. At the time work was
stopped in this portion of the mine large
ore bodies were exposed, and it is the
intention to begin work on this ore as
soon as the necessary arrangements can
be made. The underground force has
already been increased by eight men
and will be continually added to as
work progresses and room is made so as
to work them to advantage. The old
shoots, which had been filed with
waste. have been cleaned out and track
laid in the different levels, and every
thing put in shape for a considerable
increase in the production of the mine.
A new compressor of much greater ca
pacity than the present one has been
stalling the same as soon as the ma
chinery arrives, when several more ma
chine drills will be put in operation.
The regular work will be continued in
the western portion of the mine, from
which portion all the ore shipped since
the suit was begun has been extracted
and in which there is now an excellent
showing. There are now over five car
loads of good, ore on the dump and in
the bins which was extracted prior to
the issuance of the injunction, but not
shipped, and which has been tied up.
This ore is now released and will be
sent out to the mill some time next
week.

LABORING MEN COMBINE.
Rumors About City 10 Effect That
WOrkingInan's Vote Is Heavy
and Opposed to Pavement.

Persistent rumors that laboring
men are preparing to use their influ-
ence against the bonding proposition
now about TO be submitted to the
voters for their support or OPPOSE
ton are rife. The labor unions deny
that as unions they have taken any
interest in the matter, but individ-
uGls who are known to belong to diff
ferent unions say the measure will
be defeated.
1t is a noticeable fact that the ma
jority of voters registered are labor
ing men. and they have been coming
in strong from the very start. Their
objection to the bonding of the city
for the paving is due, ii is said, to
the understanding common among
them that the paving contracts will
be let to outside parties
Premonition OF this action was
covertly expressed at the council
meeting when the desire to have the
district divided in three parts so that
the smaller contractor might have an
opportunity to bid was defeated.
Councilman Nelson Smith declared
that unless this was done the bond
issue would not carry His re-
marks were treated lightly, and the

INDIAN rRoXIIES.
by This Means Department Hopes e
Push Work On Big Wapato
scheme.

II VI. Gilbert. of Toppeniah, has
received a letter from Congressman
Wesley j. Jones asking that i peti-
ton be circulated on the Yakima In
dian reservation for the signatures
of the Indians, in which il is to be
requested that the secretary OF the in
terror be given authority to act for
nonresident and absentee Indians in
the matter of disposing Of their
lands.
The purpose of This petition is to
give authority to the interior depart
ment to facilitate the matter Of Civ
ing the reclamation service control
of the reservation lands, in order
that the Wapato irrigation project
may be fastened
There are few engineering difficult
ties on the Wapato project It is the
legal phase which has delayed the
opening OF the reservation. The
ZONES bill provides for he sale Of In
dian lands with the consent OF the
Indians who own allotments Each
Indian has 50 acres. The Jones bill
allowed 80 acres to be sold. The In
dian was then to purchase water
right The purchaser of the other
part of the allotment agreed to pur-
chase the water right.
The actual transfer Is what has de-
layed the opening of the reservation
A large per cent of the Indians are
uot on the reservation They are
scattered over the northwest. and the
entire country The difficulty OF
finding the Indians is the first trou-
Ne, and the other part is to explain
the matter to the Indian after he i.
found
II the score airy Of the interior can
at for those who are absent it will
facilitate the action of getting the
Wapato project in the hands Of the
reclamation service. Mr.. Gilbert says
he thinks he will undertake the work
of securing the signatures. With :
larger part Of the Indians expressing
themselves as willing, it is thought
congress will delegate the power to
the interior department.
The legal department of the recla
nation service here has been assem-
bling the information necessary t.
carry on the work, and reports tha'
much progress has been made. It il
denied by the service that Major ia!

the outlook In their districts is very
bright. / am sure that the states in

too, for Bryan and Kern"

idency. Martin w. Littleton was quite

Elections in Panama Pass OFF With

Panama, July 1.-THE presidential
elections throughout the isthmus of
Panama passed off without disturb
ance. Senor Don Jose Domingo de

United States and acting president
during the absence of Dr. Amador,
was elected president. The support.
ers of Ricardo Arias, who recently
withdrew his candidacy. decided not
10 vote and as a cons equence no op-
ponent to Senior Obaldia was placed
in nomination. Notwithstanding this,
a large number of voters registered
their choice and demonstrated the
overwhelming majority of Senor Obal-
dia's supporters. From all parts OF
the republic news has been received
here that the elections were carried
on in an orderly names and that
Senior Obaldia received all the votes
cast
At the conclusion of the ballotting
enthusiastic crowds, headed by band
of music, paraded the streets of Pana-
ma, cheering continuously for the
newly elected president. There ap.
peared to be an absolute absence of
i'll feeling between the former sup
porters of Senior Arias and the ad-
herents of Senior Obaldia. Never be,
fore has such a friendly spirit been
shown so quickly after an election.

against Japanese and is causing con-

some quarters Indignation is ex-
pressed and the declaration is made
that such a course is an infringement

posed TO the principle of humanity

IMPROVEMENT NOTED.
Indications of Return to Normal Rusi-
ness Conditions.

Cleveland, July 14.-Indications are
multiplying in all branches of trade
that a return of normal business con-
ditions is rapidly approaching. Rail-
road managers especially report a de-
cided improvement and a sharp de-
mand for cars for the transportation
of all classes of freight, with the pos
sible exception of steel and iron. A
prominent railway official said that
while this branch of business contin-
ued far below normal it no doubt
largely resulted from the fact that the
railway companies themselves were
not buying material This state of
affairs, however, he added, could not
possibly continue much longer and
the railroads would shortly be COM
PEELED to go into the market and
when they did so the demand would
be sudden as we'll as heavy.
Grand Chief Engineer Stone Of the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers
said that his reports showed decided
business improvements on the rail
roads throughout the country.
