Gold Crown Mine
A Very Promising Property
Near Silver City

+. s. Stuart came down from Oreana
Tuesday, where he has been installing the
mill at the Gold Crown mine. He went
over to Baker City Wednesday and then
passed through here on his way back to
the mine this morning Drs. Bloom and
Ross, who are interested IL the Gold
Grown, also returned to the city Sunday
after three days stay at the mine
The mill has been completed; given a
trial operation, the machinery tested, and
everything was found satisfactory. The
first actual crushing will commence the
early part Of next week. The mill is
modern in every way, is what is known
as combination mill, and is operated by
water power. Ithas a capacity of Is tons
every "a hours. The method of treat
ment Of the ore is the so-called combina-
ton process, the ore first passing through
the rock breaker stamps to combination
table, after which the pulp is settled and
amalgamated in Wheeler amalgamating
pans, giving shipping product of both
concentrates and bullion.
The Gold Crown is located 20 miles
south Of Oreana, on Castle creek, and is
operated by the Gold Crown Mining com
pany. 1t consists of group Of nine
claims, on which there are four well-de-
fined lodges, carrying commercial value.
About three years ago c. H. Williams
and L. Foester of this city went up along
Castle Greek on prospecting trip and
became interested in some claims owned
by the Goodman boys. Mr. Stuart, who
is an experienced mining engineer, went
up and looked over the claims, with the
result that the Gold Crown became the
property of Messrs. Mankey, Stuart,
Williams and Foester For time Messrs.
Williams and Foester worked at the de-
velopment of the property, and, becom-
ing convinced at last that the Gold Crown
was a good proposition, decided to incor-
porate. Accordingly a company was or
ganized with a capital stock to the
amount of 800, 900, articles OF incorpora-
ton applied for. The shares at this time,
two years ago, were selling for about so
cents. It was about this time that Drs.
Miller, Ross, Bloom, Bellar and Joyner
and Andrew jacobson purchased an in
terest in the mine, and little later S. L.
Kennedy and number of Nampa citi-
zens secured stock. The shares are con-
sidered to be worth about dollar at the
present time and none of the treasury
stock is for sale even at that price.

capital crime. Three men and one wom-
an are now serving life sentences in the

murder. Nicolina Gezzia, sentenced to
death, recently had her sentence COM

toner of Gebbia have been unsuccessful.

YELLOW FEVER Is
AGAIN IN CUBA

New YORK, July 3.-Yellow fever is again
prevalent in Cuba, according to the Med
fcal Record, which censures the island
authorities for its recurrence, saying they
have concealed the fact by claiming that
the fever is pernicious malaria or malig-
nant jaundice.
The publication says further that the
gulf coast of the United States is
menaced. that politicians on the island
have monopolized the appropriations to
fight the disease and that the proper step
would be for the United States marine
hospital to take charge of affairs. The
article sounds a warning that the same
conditions which prevailed in Cuba be-
fore the United States took command
several years ago. says that drastic action
by the government is imperative.

COMMITTEE MAKES
LITTLE PROGRESS
ON TARIFF ACT
Nearly All Disputed Points Re-
main To Be Disposed Of Ad-
tournament Still Weeks Away,

IBy Morning J0uin mai Spefiai Leased Nirei
Washington, july 13.-By passing
over the cotton ana wooden schedules
without taking up amy of the amend
ed paragraphs and skipping the dis
puted points connected with the
rates on lumber in the wood schedule,
| the tariff conferecs were able todat
90 dispose of alUut 400 antendmenls.
This number, however, includes sub
jects that were settled tentatively on
Monday and Saturday
Many important subjects such rs
the house drawback feature of the
alcohol paragraph the rates on oil
cloth and the various items under the
head of Autographs were submitted
to sub-confcrees. The treasury eX-
perts who helped the senate finance
committee in its consideration of the
bill are assisting the conterees in
gathering information about these
subjects When the night session
was begun the conGerees had reached
sundries, nearly the las. on the sched-
ule So many matters had been put
over for future sessions, however
that it is difficult to ten just how
much progress has been made. The
conferees are making every effort to
prevent the advance publication Of
decisions reached by the confcrees re-
gardless of how unimportant are the
questions determined.
The corridors about the conference
room in the senate office building are
about as thickly peoplcd with repre-
sentatives Of special Interests and lob
byists, generally, as they We're whom
the bill was in house and senate COM
mttees.
The moment a member of the con-
ference emcrgcs from "A session he is
surrounded and briefs relating to va
rious schedules are thrust at him.
Some of the conferees have adopted
the plan of refusing to accept these
arguments basing their decinatiou
upon the ground that the bill has been
considered i'm both branches of con
gress and that it is now the duty Of
the conference committee to harmon
lie the differences without outside in
fluence of any kind.
Few conferees predict that a report
can be made before q week from sat
urday. but some go as far as to fore
cast August /. or later for the ad-
iournment of the extra session. 81
A representative of the Associated
Press today interrogated one of the
confcrces as to the progress that has
been made \ list of practically all
of the amended paragraphs of public
interest was submitted to him. It
covered nearly 100 subjects and not
one Of them had been settled defi-
nitely.
