tors. The robbery was discovered
about $50 O'Clock by Deputy Sher-
if Frank Welsh, who noticed the
slot machine, which had been rifed.

pELAMAR VINE CLOSING

One of the hardest blows that has
fallen on a Nevada mining camp in
some time is the order which is said
to have gone out for the closing Of
THE Bamberger-Delama mine and
mill at Delamar, New. For some
time rumors have come from that
camp that it was the intention Of
the management to close the prop
erty and that the shut down would
be permanent. While no informa-
ton can be obtained at the local Of
fees of the company. it was learned
from a source that is believed to be
authoritative that orders have been
sent out to close everything in CON
rection with the mine.
When inquiry was made at the
local Offices the management de-
clared that it did not wish to dis
cuss the matter, but that it was true
that the mill was being closed down.
This means that the big 5O0-ton cy-
anlde mill VIII cease to operate and
the huge 2OOO-horse power electric
plant viii be taken out of commits
sion.
1t has been known for several
years that the property has made
no money. Various estimates have
been placed on the amount expended
ranging from 100000 up. 1t is
safe to say that at least 100000
Las been expended on the equipment
and development of the property.
For years it is believed that it has
cost the company in the neighbor-
hood of 81 a ton for each ton of
ore treated, over the values ex-
tracted.

that was the neat little bunch of

At the time the boys closed down

milling ore on the dump and lots
more in sight. But they decided to
wait a few months until they could
get their ore milled. In the mean
time some prospecting has been
done on the surface a few feet from
the working shaft. A rich stringer
was discovered and this has been
followed to a depth of several feet
to where the little six-pound pocket
was found.

G%0LDFIELD WATER
RATES REDUCED

A material reduction in water
rates will probably soon be an
ounces by the Consolidated Water
company.
The reduction will be in order to
secure the cooperation of as many
consumers of the district as posi-
BILE. and will place the necessity
within the means of practically
everyone. The company takes the
position that it would rather serve
100 than so patrons, if the reve-
nue. in each case be the same.
The maximum domestic rate al
this time is three-quarters of i
cent per gallon, with a 10 per cen
discount If paid by the tenth. This
is at the rate of 1918 per 1000
gallons. The company intends tc
increase the rate of discount tC
about thirty-three and one-third pei
cent, making he charge only So
per 1000 gallons, If the service be
paid for by the tenth of the month.
The company is at this time sup
plying about 100000 gallons OF
water to consumers each day.
I'VE wish to get more consum-
ers," said C. G. Patrick, manager OF
the company, last evening, land are
willing to do our part to that end.
The new rates will go into effect the
first Of November, providing we Sc
cure sufficient increase in business,
and judging by the present, there
is absolutely no doubt along that
line. We wish to have our supply
in as many homes of Goldfeld as is
possible and contemplate a reduc-
ton to S. per 1000 gallons. We
hope this policy will be successful

BIG SUM EXPENDED
IN NYE COUNTY MINES

For the quarter ending June 30,
1909, the total number of tons of
ore extracted from Nye county's
mines aggregated the grand sum of
1886, more than a thousand tons
a day. The gross value of this ore
was $1,685, S02.3O.
The cost of production totaled
$~,568,044.77. This mount shows
that more than 100000 a month
has been expended in salaries and
for supplies in this county.
The total amount of bullion tax
collected was $5299.16. This sum
will be added to by the taxes of
two mining companies in Pioneer
which are late with their quarterly
reports. The Glendale taxation will
have to be appraised and will prob
ably be increased.
The camps paying bullion tax this
quarter were Tonopah, Round
Mountain, Manhattan, Bullfrog and
Pioneer.
The quarterly report was received
by the state bullion and tax col
lector, James r. Haley, who states
that Nye county stands third on the
list. He prophesies that the next
quarter will find this section head
ing the state owing to the activity
of the leases on Jim Butler, many
of which should be shipping high
grade BY that time.
