Joker" IN TARIFF
BILL TAXES TOYS
Experts Say Provision Would
Make Models of Animals and
Living Creatures Equal
Miniatures or limitations of Ar
ticles Placed in Class With
Regular Clothing

CHICAGO, March 27. - Another
'joker' has been discovered in the
Payne tariff bill Experts in the for
eign buying department of a local store
say that toy animals. retailing at pres
ent for a few cents, are to become as
expensive to import into this country
as the living animals which they repre-
sent in miniature, if the bill becomes
law.
A toy horse, for instance, worth 81,
will, under the eccentricities of the
proposed measure. be taxed $50, just
the same rate as will be collected for
thoroughbred racer or a costly horse
show hackney.
The experts also find that many kinds
Of clothes and ornaments for dolls will
be taxed at the same rate as clothes
and ornaments for the American
woman.
found to exist under the pending bill
with reference TO toys is contained in
paragraph 427, which reads as follows:
Dolls, dolls heads and toys, 35 per
cent ad valorem; provided that toys
made in imitation or miniature of, or
bearing the same name as, articles that
are provided for in the dutiable list OF
this section by individual or class
designation shall pay the same rate OF
1 duty as such articles. but in no case
shall any toys pay less than the rate OF
duty imposed upon miscellaneous manu-
factures of the material of which such
! toys are wholly or in chief value COM
posed"
| The Joker" is mainly tucked away
4 in that part of the paragraph relat-
ing to toys made in Imitation OF
miniature" of articles mentioned else
where In the bill. The experts say thai
this means simply what 1t says, and
! that toys which are miniatures oil
things elsewhere specified must pay
the tax of those articles.

NEWPORT. r. l., March 27.-With
the greater part OF her thousand pas
sengers unaware that an accident had
happened the steamer Providence of
the Fall River line was towed into
Newport early this morning from the
vicinity of Point Judith, where during
the night the steamer had become dis
abled through the breaking of her
port paddle wheel.
OF the passengers on board about
500 were school children bound for
washington from various sections of
New England, and great was their as
constituent when they awoke to find
themselves at Newport instead of al
New York
When the Providence became dis

the Western Union telegraph company

TUsCARoRA WORKING PLACERs.

Placer ground of the Nevada Hy-
draulic Mining and Milling company
at Tuscarora Is being worked sue
cessfully by leases, who have IN
stalled a hydraulic plant with 1,50o
feet of pipe, II and II inches in SIZE
with a fall of 125 feet, throwing
watr through a four-inch nozzle
against a gravel bank 20 feet high.
The gravel is very rich, it is said, a
general test showing values from 81
to SIS a cubic yard.
Many rich nuggets have been pick
ed up, the lessees having stored
enough gold to pay expenses before
the first cleanup was made. One OF
the nuggets weighed six ounces.
Aside from the free gold taken from
the dirt and gravel are encountered

to 40 pounds, which are literally
alive with gold.

GUESSING AS
TO]]6'I|R|||o(k j|jialIIN
VARIOUS THEORIES BY OUTSID-
Frs IRON ORE DISPUTES
THESE WITH ASSERTION THAT
MERIT IS ALONE RESPONSIBLE

A good deal OF random guessing
is going the rounds Of the mining
press concerning the cause of the adj
vance in Giroux during the last two
weeks. The Mining World in its last
issue says it is due to a ~reorganiza-
ton plan which involves increased
capitalization and the requirement of
Butte Ely and to an aliliation which
1T is asserted has been made by
International Smelling with the new
Ely-Goldfield railroad.
Last weeks Iron Ore, published
a day later than the Mining World
says advance is attributable simply
to the confidence that has grown up
in the Giroux property and the Salts
faction which exists with the
systematic ann u development
which is going on. Iron Ore is next
to the throne and on the inside with
regard to all matters pertaining to
Giroux. 1t is in direct touch with
headquarters and when new plans
are matured there, Iron Ore gets
the first whack at them for publica-
ton. Also, Giroux headquarters
people are a mighty close mouthed
crowd. Things do not get out from
them until they are ready for them
to go. In consequence of which
there is very good ground for ac-
ceptance of the Iron Ore opinion
about Giroux at this time as against
the assertions of others. At any
rate, Giroux is abundantly supplied
with merit to advance ON its W
hook.
There was enewe evidence III
the action of the market yesterday
of the larger participation which the
public is daily taking in the trading.
Indications are now favorable to an
earlier ending of the dull season
than was anticipated a very little
while ago. The cause lies IN the
rapidly gaining realization OF the
certainty Of boom fall and winter

RESURRECTION
EXPECTS 0.S1iH||P
SECRETARY RETURNS TO SALT
LAKE ENTHUSIASTIC OVER
SHOWINGS ON THE PROPERTY
SURFACE CONDITIONS.

That the Ely Resurrection Copper
company will in a very short time be
producing enough shipping ore to
pay expenses of a pretty big develop
ment campaign is the belief of
George R. Raymond, secretary and
manager of the company, who has
just returned from Ely after having
been occupied the last week familiar
izing himself with conditions at the
property, says the Salt Lake Republic
can.
During the quiet times the COM
,pany has had only d small force of
men employed at the mine and the
work has been confined to prospect
ing the large bodies of low grade
ore which the property contains.
Recently, however, work has Deen
transferred to a vein of relatively
high grade ore from which shipments
were made in the early days. On
this vein is an old hole about sixteen
feet wide and forty feet deep, from
which was taken considerable ore
which carried values exceeding 500
a ton. The vein is, OF course, some
what broken at the surface. but in
the bottom of the shaft is a we'll de-
fined body of ore four and a half
feet across, which runs something
like 7 per cent copper, IS in gold,
twenty-five ounces in silver and 10
to 20 per cent lead
On the surface Mr.. Raymond has
had the vein trencheu for sixty feer
on its strike, to the depth of six
and eight feet, and from that work
has been saved 800 lons of the same
class of ore. Now a tunnel Is being
driven which will cut the vein at the
depth of 100 feet ano there appears
to be every reason to believe there
will be good stopping ground fro
that level to the surface. And, to
make the proposition still more at
tractive, the tunnel in being driven
200 feet further will crosscut severa
more veins similar to the first one,
all of them being in a mammoth
assured zone of mineralized material
In addition to the work now in
progress, it is the intention to thor
oughly prospect the ground with
churn drills, the first drill to be
started within the next sixty days.
Ely is rapidly assuming it's place
as the great copper camp of the
country. Mr.. Raymond says. While
he has kept reasonably we'll inform
ed concerning operations of the Ne
vada Consolidated company. he was
amazed at the extent of its steam
shovel workings and the increased
tonnage of ore that is being produced
Last Monday the company shipped
100 tons of ore to the ~concentra
tor. That is a record production
but it is said that more could be
mined regularly il the reduction
works could care for it. Now tina
four units Of the concentration are II
operation and the Cumberland Ei!
is not using it's division of the plant
| Nevada Consolidated is enabled u
have treated close to $500 tons o
ore a day.

DIRECTORS SMILE OVER SUIT.

SALT LAKE Juy 27.-The direc-
tors of the Nevada Hills Mining COM
pany of Fairview, Nevada, were seen
tbs afternoon about the story ema-
mating from Goldfeld threatening
the company with q receiver, and
claiming a share in the profits of the
since it was organized. The
directors do not take the matter
seriously, and content themselves by
saving that it is passing strange that
George Bethune should not have dis
covered the growth of the company
and the deception practiced upon him
before the lapse of three years. Mr..
Weber said the plaintiff was In fuii
possession of the facts of the organi-
cation and the distribution OF dlvl-
dends, and he car not understand
how he can expect to come into court
at this late day with any pretense to
a legitimate claim against thai corpo-
ration. If he was m1slead into the
acceptance of $4,000 why didn't he
find that out when, during the Fair
view boom the newspapers OF Salt
Lake and Nevada were trimming
over with stories of great wealth
found IN the Nevada Hills. Mr.. Web
Der is of the opinion that the silence
of the plaintiff condoned any crime
that may have been committed, and
j he tacitly admitted that the conduct
I of the company was clean asd above
board so far as he was concerned
The possibility of a receiver is scout
ed as a chimera that can not be es-
~tertained for a moment, as the com
pany has sufficient backing ano
wealth to give a bond of any magni
tude that the court may order. Thai
the action may lead to complication:
and result in a suspension of the
proposed improvements is said to BIZ
preposterous, and that no time viii
be lost in going ahead as fast as tbs
engineers can perfect their plans.

a cyniding mill with which he will
work over the dump of the oil Navjo
mine. The Navajo mine, worked in
the oil lays of the camp to the depth
of only 600 feet, is accredited with
a production of $1,000, 900 and the
milling process then usel left high
values in the taings. Mr.. Pattison
and associates confidently expect to
make a fortune from the lump. They
also have a lease on the Rose group.
The Mayhem syndicate of New
York and Denver is preparing to
work at depth on a large scale a
group of the oil mines of the camp,
including the Dexter, Grand Prize,
Belle Isle, Queen Consolidated AMI
several of Jesse note. These proper
~tieties, with the deepest workings
700 feet have produced something
like $3S,000,O00. Mining engineers
believe that with depth ever greater
values will be found.
A party of Boston capitalists was
recently at Tuscarora looking into
the possibilities of the camp, anil
Montana men are now examining
two properties there. 1t is believed
! that the time of the districts re-
awakening is at hand.
