The Report is Untrue.

Guantanamo, Cuba, March 27.-The
report of an explosion on the war
ship Mississippi is false. Telephone

indication whatever of any disturb

Charles H. Harlow, commandant of
the United States naval station here,
declared that the report that the bat

ious mishap, was utter nonsence, as the
Mississippi was in this vicinity with
Admiral Arnold on board, maneuver-

-consressman Lonsworth Gets Into
the Talking Game and Defends Bill
as Fulfilling Republican Promises.

Washington, March 27.-In order to
expedite the discussion of the tariff
bill in the house unanimous consent to-
day was given that the sessions here
after shall begin at 10 instead of II
o'clock. Without any intimation of
having been given as to when general
debate on the measure shall cease, the
bill was laid before the house. Harri-
son, of New York. new democratic
member of the committee on ways and
means, at once took the floor.
Washington, March 27.-Declaring
there would be no dissension in the
democratic ranks of the house with
regard to the tariff and that the Fftz-
gerald amendment to the rules made
1t impossible for the minority to ex-
press its views upon the amendments
to this bill by a record vote, Repre-
sentative Harrison, of New York, to-
day discussed the various features Of
the Payne measure.
MANY schedules in the Payne bill
offer ground for rejoicing among our
partisans," he said. Under republican
management, said Harrison, THE ma
tion was fast approaching bankruptcy.
This bill contains heavy taxes upon
the women of America" he continued.
In many respects they seem to have
bene singled out for attack. New taxes
upon tea and coffee, upon women's
gloves and cotton stockings are direct
provocation to woman suffrage. If
this tariff bill does not bring about the
franchise of women, their cause is
hopeless. But the most serious aspect
of the situation is that these duties
are chiefly specific, and fall more
heavily upon the poor than upon the
rich"
Lonsworth Defends Bill.
Declaring that the Payne bill is a
eight months ago to the American
people by the republican party, Rep
resentative Longworth of Ohio, spoke
today in defense of it's various provis-
ions. He reviewed the campaign prom
ises Of the democratic party and said
the minority members of the ways and

Big LEAD find At
BATTLE MOUNTAIN
GREATEST SURFACE SHOWING
OF SILVER-LEAD ORE EVER
DISCOVERED IN NEVADA

What is probably one Of the big
gest surface showings of silver-lead
deposits ever found in this part of
Nevada was discovered a few days
ago by r. C. sherwood and Clyde
Ganser about 80 miles west of Bat
tie Mountain and in the vicinity of

Mountain Herald The two men
were prospecting in the mountains
on the west side of the Buffalo Val
ley when they found some rich
specimens of lead float. They traced
this to the ledge without great diff

with huge boulders of the metal
weighing as high as 500 and 400
pounds scattered over the surface
The deposit is a contact vein be
tween lime and porphyry, the min
eralization being due, doubtless, to
the intrusive dykes of porphyry
which cut the lime formation with a
northerly and southerly strike y Dc
curing parallel with the porphyry
is also an enormous conglomerate
which gives additional evidence OF
strong eruptive action. The matriX
of the ore is a heavy spar, form
ing three distinct and well defined
lodges which can be traced by their
strong outcrop for more than a
mile
The number and extent Of the ore
shoots cannot as yet be determined
on account of the limited explora-
ton, but Judging from the number
of places along the course of the
| lodges where metallic specimens OF
the ore are distributed, there is
good reason for believing that the
enriched portions of the ledge will
prove to be extensive.

A NEW INDUSTRY
@ FOR THIS STATE
Careful Experiments Carried on by Sylvester
Sparkling Of Evanston, ILL.,, Shows that Sage
Brush is one Of Nevada's Most Valuable
Resources, and Nevada viii Boom.

For some time past the state
board of publicity and the state en-
gineers Office have been endeavoring
to secure capital for the manufac-
turing of various products from the
sagebrush of Nevada.
Over quarter of century ago
Thomas Edison when in Virginia
City remarked to some friends that
the Lord Almighty never put so
much sagebrush or anything else in
one place unless he meant it for
some economic use.
Various attempts have been made
in the past few years to utilize the
sagebrush. The late Thomas Wern
experimental with it and produced
a very fine quality of tannin oil and
Mr.. P. B. Ellis of this city macerated
it and by treating it chemically pro-
duced a very excellent quality of
rubber. After some Chicago people
became interested they asked for
reports on the extent of the growth
of sagebrush in this state and these
reports were furnished by the state
engineer.
AS result of the correspondence
on the subject a company has been
incorporated in Chicago known as
the Chemical Produce company hav-
ing a capitalization of $15O,000,
fully paid up and worcestershire,
with view to putting up plants in
this state for the extraction of wood
alcohol, tar, creosote. pitch, acetic
acid and charcoal
A careful series of experiments
demonstrated just what profit there
is in $4,000 tons of sagebrush. The
yield from that amount was $685.
357, and the cost of producing the
commercial products was 100000
which gave net profit of $192,375
The yield per ton averages some
thing over SIS.
These are cold figures from actual
experiments, and mean a great deal
to this state.
Every man who has ever been in
the west knows of the vast eXpanse
of territory covered by sagebrusE
which has heretofore been known
as useless waste Millions of acres
and hundreds of square miles are
covered with it.
Recently four tons of sagebrusl
was shipped to Evanston, Ill, from
the west, and a retort was built fol-
the purpose OF testing it. Wher
the experiment was made it showed
the following results:
The yields of the products from
1000 pounds of the sagebrush are
as follows:
22O gallons of distillate.
1850 pounds of charcoal.
The distillate was fractioned ant
produced:
Tar, 33 gallons; wood alcohol, II

Cbei pow U
1t will thus be seen that there is
money in sagebrush. and that Ne
vada has much of it for future use
is shown by the following letter:
Mr.. Frank f. Hirsch, President
Charles City College, Charles City,
Iowa.
Dear Sir: Replying to your favor
of May 3 concerning the growth
of wood commonly known in this
vicinity as sagebrush, / cannot state
authoritatively as to acreage con-
tanning sagebrush within the state of
Nevada, but I would conservatively
estimate the area at three million
acres, that could be adapted to a
commercial use.
In certain portions of this state
the sagebrush grows six to eight
feet in height, and having a base or
trunk six to eight inches in diane
ter. Immediately north of Reno and
extending northerly for nearly 100
miles, there is a large luxurious
growth that could be readily OBJ
tanned for your use, and | will be
pleased to accompany any represen-
tative you may in the future decide
to send to investigate the amount
available
Very truly yours,
FRANK R. NICHOLAS,
State Engineer
