WITHOUT FOOD OR WATER
Harris and Pratt Are Brought In By Roger Stearns and Oliver Creech After Vain Attempt to Walk to Phoenix

After wandering for two days be- tween Winters Wells and Salome, a part of the time without either food pr water, with the Ford, an entry in the Los Angeles Phoenix race abandoned forty-five miles behind, Charles Harris and William Pratt were rescued Thursday at noon by Roger Stearns and Oliver Creeth. who went out to bring the men in. Harris was so iiI from exposure that it was thought best to give him rest before moving him and he was brought in by stage; but Pratt was brought in on the Ford by Stearns.
 When the men were found Pratt had worn his shoes through the soles and they were hanging about his ankles. He was supporting Harris. who was too i'll to walk hy himself. Harris lips were swollen and cracked for want of water and the two men were rcelinE from one side of the road to the other, stumbling onward in the

again the Western Union office and
 the newspaper offices for news of his
 men. but there was none. Thursday
 morning he was convinced that some
 thing had happened and determined to
 organize a relief expedition. oliver Creech offered the use of his car and
 the two loaded up with provisions and started out on the road to Salome.
 After bath and good dinner
 Pratt. who has spent many months on the desert at a time. was himself again and related the incidents of the trip. He was one of the guests at the luncheon given by the Maricopa Au- tomobile club to the visiting automO- biIists at the Hotel Adams yesterday afternoon.
 He said: T think the Ford car had the hardest time of any. We bent a rear axle just out of Los Angeles. The next accident was near Indio when we lost a wheel. It crumbled against a boulder We were fourteen miles from Indio and two of the men walked back and got another wheel. We then went on toward the river and met Hamlin returning with the Franklin to Los Angeles It looked bad. but MT. Stearns is no quitter. He told us to go on and we did.
 After crossing the river we heard that there were some others in the race who were experiencing difficulties. It looked to us as though we might still have chance, so we hurried on. Then We bent the steering knuckle. We waited long time for the new one but 1t did not come. Stearns had gone on with the Pennsylvania car and we tried to come on with the old knuckIe. It did pot last long. The car broke down and we started to walk the rest of the way. I guess we were d little light headed by this time. We kept to the road and jogged on and on. Thursday night we camped in the desert with a ring of coyotes about us We had fire but nothing to eat or drink. Harris stepped on a rattle snake, but he was too tired to care whether if bit him or not. The. snake was cold and did not strike quick quickly so we killed it and Harris has the rattles in his pockets. The coyotes parked. but I have heard them before and did not mind. wish we could have killed one. for l believe he would have tasted pretty good at that time-just as good any way as the fried burro steaks we got at Ehren- berg
 Pratt took a sip of the sparkling Burgundy which was part of the menu generously provided by the au- tomobile association and looked long ingly at the four big silver and copper cups in the center Of the table. "It seems awfuIly good to be back in civilization again. he said; but l would like to have had try at one of those cups"

LITIGATION OF
SILVER KING
ConkIing Mining Company In
SiStS That Famous Elephant
Slope Has Not Moved.

Another move was made in the huga-
ton now pending between Nicholas Ire
week and the Conkling Mining company
and the Silver King Coalition Mines COM
pany when the former company through
its attorneys. Dye & Hoppaugh, yesterday
filed an amended reply to the amended
answer of the Silver King company in the
federal court The document is lengthy
one and deals largely with the contention
of the Silver King company that the ore
bodies alleged by the Conkling company
to have been mined In the Conkllng claim
are located in the westerly $50 feet or
that claim in ground that does not prop
erlv belong within the surface boundaries
Of the COnkling, but in ground owned
wholly by the defendant company.
The COnkling COmpany's reply recites
that the patent of the Conkling claim def
iuiteIy fixes its exact location; that II is
many years older than the overlapping
claim which the King claims is entitled
TO the ore bodies embraced in the Sill
yer Kings famous Elephant stope. II is
also pointed out that the Silver King owns
a one-fourth interest in the Conkling and
that. through this ownership and the
deeds conveying it, the defendant has
known all the time that the claim Of
the Conkling company respecting the loca-
ton Of the ground was correct
As the suit Is one that involves more
than 81 600 600 worth Of ore and the right
10 mine in that territory in the future,
the greatest care is being taken by both
sides to approach the main issue, the trial
of the case, with fences well constructed.
That the fight will be a hot one when
il gets well under way is certain. for the
stakes are such that neither side can
afford to miss a trick of any kind.

Ore Weekly and Disclosing
Fine Red Metal Values.

It was learned yesterday that the Cave
mine. in Beaver county, is doing an even
better business than was shown in the
news concerning the proposition brought
up by J. NJ. Reynolds a few days ago.
Since shipments were started few weeks
ago 1850 tons of the ore has been de
livered to the United States Smelling, Re
filming & Mining company. This ore runs
from 50 per cent to s. per cent iron, To-
gether with little gold silver and lead.
It is coming up at the rate of about
three carloads a week, and lot No. 2, o.
three cars, was reported yesterday morn
ing.
Recently. it is learned. the ore in the
mine is showing some copper, as wen as
the other contents mentioned, and the
Ieasers are getting hand samples that
carry from 10 to Is per cent copper. A D.
ton carload of this character of rock IS
expected to be shipped from the mine
within a few days. The property is one
