AN EXAGGERATED
RUMOR Of CAVE
in AT BELMONT

A report was circulated about the
streets yesterday that cavern had
occurred in the shaft of the Tono-
pah Belmont property. Investiga-
ton showed that the story was one
made out of whole cloth. The Bo-
nanza learned from the most re-
liable authority that there was moth
ing to the story. 1t appears that
between the 800 and 400-foot level
of the main working shaft a water
course was encountered which at
various times has occasioned some
trouble. In that particular locality
the ground is given to swelling,
with the result that every once in
a while it is necessary for the
ground behind the timbers to be
loosened up. The water by expand
ing the ground, retards the work of
the cage, making it rather hard for
it to pass the point which is swol-
| len by the earth.
The mine force was not compelled
to lay off, only that portion which
was working in that particular shaft
being effected Everything is run
ming smoothly at the Belmont. Ex-
aggerated statements of a cave-in
were perfectly groundless.

that McDann will be confined in the
