APPEAL MAY BE TAKEN,
Case May Be Carried to Circuit Court
and Later to Supreme Court.


and Later to Supreme Court.
Special Dispatch TO The Star.
CHICAGO, March 11.:It is believed here
that steps will be taken Immediately to
appeal the Standard Oil case thrown out
Of court yesterday by Judge Anderson.
Officers Of the Department Of Justice
have expressed their belief that an ap-
peal would lie from Judge Anderson s
court to the circuit court of appeals, and
a further appeal to the United States Su-
preme Court. Intimation Of action came
to the local federal attorneys from the
Department of Justice at Washington.
The effect of Judge Anderson's decision
upon other federal actions was also q
matter of interesting discussion among
local authorities.
There are several other indictments
pending against the Standard OIL Com
pany based on practically the same
charges as those in the present case Two
of the indictments charge that the COM
pany received concessions from the East
ern Illinois railroad on oil shipped to
Evansville. Ind, the lawful rate being II
cents, the rate to the Standard OIL Com
pany being 81 cents and cents. There
are also two charges Of concessions re-
ce!ved from the Burlington road on ship
ments similar to the Atoms.
Attorney General to Decide
Whether these cases will be brought
TO trial In view of Judge Anderson's
ruling depends upon the decision reach
ed by the new Attorney General, Mr.
Wickersham.
BY his Interpretation of the court of
appeals. decision Judge Anderson has
declared t.Gt because that superior body
Of judges was unable to agree that IS
cents was the legal rate on oil between
the two points named, after considering
the evidence produced by the govern
ment in the former hearing, the evil
dence in this case-being practically the
same-was not sufficient to warrant the
jury finding beyond reasonable doubt
that such was the case. To sustain
this he quoted from the decision of the
court of appeals.
II was contended today by Judge
Grosscup. who wrote the opinion Of the

TWO GOOD STRIKES
IN BEAVER GROUP
Rich GaIena Ore Is Opened
Next to Harrington HiCk-
Dry Mine.

Important strikes have been made
tin doing assessment work on the
Lorin Hail group of four claims, adj
joining on the west the Harrington
Hickory patented ground Of the Ma
jestiC Mines company, in Beaver cOun-
ty. The ten-fOOt hole in No. 1 claim
has exposed a three-fOOt body Of galena
ore a sample of which brought TO the
city yesterday by Mr.. Hall assayed 81
per cent lead, "A ounces in silver and
81 in gold to the ton. In No. 2 claim
has been opened large body Of quartz
which carries good gold values.
Lorin Hail. who owns control of the
group of claims. conducts a store and
boarding house at the Moscow mine.
He is highly elated over the finds, be-
ieving that they forecast uuQUestiOn-
ably the making of a big mine in
the ground. The ledge that has been
opened is the Harrington Hickory
ledge, he saws, and he is also positive
that it can be traced directly to the
Red Warrior mine. three and a half
miles away, in which the fifty-fOOt
body of sand carbonate ore was re-
Gently opened.
The strikes in the Hall group are
400 feet apart, and they are about
half mile southwest OF the Harrington
Hickory main shaft.

YERINGTON SURE
TO HAVE SHELTER
No Doubt That Positive Work
to That End Is Under
Way.

While Engineer LEV Humphreys, VINO
has just returned from Yerington district,
where he was engaged for two weeks IN
aiding J. lie Barthe the noted metal
lurgist, in collecting data required for es-
timating the smelling requirements OF the
camp, is as reticent as ever in the mat
ter Of giving out definite information. it
is known that the expert found conditions
more favorable than he had counted upon
that all representations that had been
made to him bearing upon the need OF
smelter were a-cCnservatlve.
Il is known further that before lie
Barthe had been in the camp more than
d few days he was working upon data
TO a positive end; that the question OF
whether a smeiter was Justified had been
succeeded by the proposition of Just the
size ana kind Of plant that would De re-
quired to treat most successfully the r0eS
OF the YeringtOn district. 1t appears to
be safe to state that before the end OF
the coming year the new smelter Will be
handling the ores Of the Mason Valley,
Nevada Douglas, Western Nevada and
other mines of the district.
The Nevada Copper Belt railroad is viz
tually complete to Mason City, which is
near the Mason Valley mine. 1t is to be
in operation by the first of the year.
About six months longer will be required
to complete the line to the Nevada Doug
las mine. and by that time Manager w.
G. Orem expects to be in readiness to
ship 800 tons a day of the Nevada Doug
las cOmpany's gypsum deposit.
The work of blocking cut the ore bodies
i'm the Mason Valley mine continues to
be attended by only the most favorable
results. The raises from the 300 ana 400
levels have been continuously In ore OF
better than average grade, even for that
high-grade mine The average in the
raise from No. 4 level has been from 6
TO s per cent copper. while the No.
