HIDDEN TUNNEL REVEALS
FINE BODY OF RICH ORE

Miners working in the tunnel at the
Riv,s mine broke through into the old
Fetterman tunnel Thursday and found
a body of ore so immense that it is i'm
possible to define its dimensions.
The Fetterman tunnel has been hid
len for about four years. There has
always been a suspicion that this tunnel
aid some great secret, as peculiar cir
eumstances surrounded the explosion
that filed the mouth. The discovery
Thursday proves that a rich lead was
struck and the explosion was the work
of individuals who wished to hide the
discovery.
When the old tunnel was entered it
was found to be in terrible shape, the
car rails were bent and in some cases
almost tied in knots from the force of
the explosion. Great masses of debris
were heaped along the track and great
chambers stopped down where the So
Loxes of dynamite had been stored.
For 200 feet along this tunnel a vein
of quartz has been exposed which ear
RIGS high values in gold but as no as
says have been made it is impossible
to state the value of the rock. Lying
in heaps along the floor are great
masses of talc which, where in place,
covers the vein like a blanket hung
along a wall. The tale ranges from Is
inches to two feet in thickness. The
dimensions of the quartz are not to be
estimated by the presnt exposure. The
quartz is of the white and notified pink
variety, pitted and "bugholed" and
scanned with brown scoles that cover
the filmy fakes of gold.-Prospector,

Fifteen men, working in three shifts,

Bull Dog Fraction of the Red Top
Extension ground. Drifts have been
north and south on the big
ledge, to follow a very promising
quartz streak that was struck in the

sent compilation of the pay roll of the
camp, the Red Top NJ. g. l.. company
was inadvertently overlooked, result
ing in many inquiries as to whether
this company was still operating. There
mas been no cessation of work ON this
proposition since operations were start
ed by the Red Top NJ. 4 l.. company
some months ago, and a force of 10
men has been constantly employed. The

CLIFFORDS START WORK ON
SALISBURY WASH MYSTERY

Indications now point to the posi-
bility, or even probability, that some
development work, the exact amount
of which has not yet been definitely an
nounced, is at last to be done on the
salisbury WASH 1t is reported that
Ed. Clifford and Joe Nay have started
the work of digging an open cut on the
big ledge, and will continue this work
until a shipment of high grade ore is
secured. All operations will then be
confined to a point several hundred
feet down the mountain side, where a
tunnel will be driven to tap the ledge.
Some mining men who have made SUI
cesses in the game might have beer;
tempted to adopt the old adage, "f'l-
low your ore, even if it goes up a
tree but hat might solve the prob
lem of its persistency too quickly for

feet before the continuity of values can
be proven or disputed.
The surface dirt in the vicinity OF
the ledge is also said to be SO rich
that it will be screened to separate the
dust from the coarse rock, and t'n
screenings will be shipped, or at least
sacked, as sshigh grade They have
sacked about a ton of the float which
has been picked up between the ledge
and the bottom of the hill. This has
been stored in one of their houses,
where it has been sorted into two
classes and will be shipped at an early
date, probably with the ore that NAV
be extracted from the ledge.
Hundreds of people continue to visit
the camp. The town is growing rapid.
ly, and over twenty business houses of
the usual mining camp variety are in
course of construction. Now that repu-
table mining engineers have been per
mitted to inspect the mysterious dis.
covery, and have expressed their opin
ion thereon, excitement is subsiding
and conservative mining men will be
content to abide their time and pa.
tientiy await the result of develop
ment.

Pioneer, New, June 1~s.-DeveloP-

great gold camps of the state. With

bright from the mining standpoint.
There are some two score shafts going
down in the district, and while 1t would
be a sweeping assertion to say that
they Will all get ore, it is a tact that
IN every shaft there is a showing which
gives the operators some incentive to
Keep digging. Already there are more
than a dozen shafts in ore which, could
it be milled right there without hav-
ing to pay transportation charges,
would give rich returns.
Consolidation About Completed.
The consolidation of the Tobin in
~terests in the center of the camp with
the Wingheld and Brown interests is
practically completed now 50 far as the
cold Hills company of Brown 4 Wing
held, and the Bullfrog Pioneer com
pany, controlled by the Tobins, is con
cerned, and when that consolidation
has been gotten out of the road, other
or the ToDin interests will be gradual
ly thrown into the combine, making a
combination of properties second only
to the Consolidated at Goldfeld, if
showings at equal stages of develop
ment in both camps may be taken as
a basis of comparison.

WINGFIELD NOT INVOLVED
BY HIS RECENT BIG DEALS

Upon what it claims to be unques-
tionable authority, the Mining Finan-
cial News, now published in New York,
says that reports current in Wall street
that George Wingield involved himself
rather heavily to accomplish the pur-
chase of Senator George s. Nixon's
stock in the Goldfield Consolidated
Mines company are absolutely without
foundation.
The story which has been current for
effect that Mr.. Wingfeld borrowed
3 5000, 900 from certain bankers and
brokers in New York and Boston who
are understood to be heavily interested
in Goldfeld Consolidated. As security
for this loan, according to the story, he
hypothecated his entire holdings in the
big Goldfield merger mines company.
There is no truth whatever i nthese
reports, and it can be as authoritative
ly denied hat the selling of Goldfeld
Consolidated, which has been in prog
ress for the past six or seven weeks
and which. carried the issue down to
1925 per share, has been with a view
to putting the price to where the money
lenders could call Mr.. Wingfeld's loan
and possess themselves of his stock.
This report is entirely false for the
simple reason that as Mr.. Wingfieli
did not borrow, there is no loan to be
called.
Whatever selling there has been, 1t
is stated upon the same excellent au-
thority, has been to enable certain large
holders of the stock to realize upon
their holdings in order to invest in a
certain copper issue.
In this connection, it can be stated
that Mr.. Wingfield's position in respect
OF Goldfeld Consolidated is held to be
almost ~impregnable. The young Ne
stood, the holder of $4,000 shares of
the big merger stock, value in the mar
ket today at around IS per share. This
stock is held free from any obligation,
and is more than six times as much as
is owned by any other individual in
the corporation. The deal with Senator
Nixon by which the latter parted with
his holdings in the company was made
ON this basis:
Senator Nixon owned 30s, 900 shares
of the stock. Mr.. Wingfeld took over
for himself l5s,000 shares, and eastern
interests with which he was then close
~ identified, but with which his rela-
tions are now understood not to be
quite SO intimate, took over the remain
ing 10000. The price at which the
trade was made has never been made
public, but il il commonly understood

Origin Of the Mule.
Richard 8. Miner, a local attorney,
spoke of the origin of the mule, laying
stress upon the mules patient and
Woodworking qualities.
The mule in this country had its ORR
gin in the Jack that had been given to
Washington by the French.
General James Donovan, another local
attorney, was called from the audience
to address the gathering and spoke of
the fights of the Democracy to reinstate
itself as the great party of the coun-
try for the last forty-nine years, saying
that during that time there has been
but eight years when the Democratic
party had the reins of government, and
urging that a united effort should be
made by all to again place it in power.
The meeting dispersed with entire
satisfaction being expressed by the
leaders of the Democracy from up north
and also those of the local Democracy.
The orchestra played a number of pleas
ing patriotic selections until the hall
was empty, after which many of those
who had attended the meeting danced
until long after midnight in the Gold
field hotel.
During Monday afternoon the visit
ing Democrats visited the rooms of the

ing, where a smoker was held, the party
later visiting a number of the mines in
the district. During the afternoon Con-
stable Bart Knight rode Major Minna-
mascot for the first time since its ar
rival in Goldfeld, the event passing
without any serious consequence, the
mule not objecting to Bart, as he is
known as a good Democrat.
