RHYOL|TE MINE
MAY PAY velvet"
Pioneer Company Has Renewed
Lease and No In
debtedness.
EXTRACTION CAN BE
MADE ECONOMICAL
Increased Output May Follow
Work Now Under
Way.

Some fourteen months ago when the
value Of the ore deposit in the leasehold
Of the Pioneer Leasing and Milling COM
pany of Rhyolite, became known,
sharply contested struggle for control
ensued, says the Herald. Then IL was
considered that the future Of the prop"
erty was great and the prospects for
dividends very reassuring. Then there
were but ten of eleven months Of the
life of the lease existing.
BY the renewal of the lease there are
now over thirteen months in which ore
extraction can be carried on, Now the
leasing company has no indebtedness,
but on the contrary has considerable
funds in its treasury. Today the ore
showings are SAID to be greater, more
extensive, and of a better uniform
grade than a year ago,
Economical Production.
Today the means for extraction arc
superior and the knowledge for opera
Iion more effective. In various ways
more economy is practical. Consequent
ly today the chances for profitable
dividends should be much greater, and
it is but fair to assume that one should
be soon forthcoming. If not, why hotI
The recent extension Of the big stope
TO the northeast has penetrated ore at
about 140 feet deep. 1t has cut into
this ore for over ten feet and the face
of the extending stope is over 90 feet
wide. Average face values have as
sayed this week $3.50 and $40 per ton.
Carload lots have been yielding highly
profitable values. It is not known how
far above this L40-foot level the ore
extends. A drif. IS boing run on the
2l0 level to Gu. into the same ore at
that depth. and that, with connection
at the shaft, will afford easier means
Of extraction.
New Ore Body.
The body on the 256foot level from
which ore is being extracted, is appar-
emily different deposit from that in
the big stope above, as it is different
in various respects 1t is not so large,
varying from two to five feet in which
still it so far appears strong and steady.
From the strike and trend of both
deposits il seems all will be found we'll
within the Bi-Metallic limits.
1t is admitted that the general orc
presentment is superior to anything in
the past, and that the general average
of carload lots is decidedly greater, with
the prospect of indefinite continuance.
1t is possible that an increased output
Will be made after the drift on the 2lO

SILVER ISLAND TO
INCREASE OUTPUT
Property Looks Very Promising
and Creates Interest in
the District.

Manager Murray King of the Silver
Island Coalition company reports that
the second shipment Of ore from the
mine, In the Silver Island district,
nettcd the company $2500, the returns
being about tho same as from the
first shipment made some two weeks
ago. Tho consignment consisted Of
thirty-sevcn tons of ore, Mr.. King
ticularly new developments TO report
from tho property everything is NOV
ing along in good shape, and opera
tions at present consist largely of
blocking out ore for future production.
1t is the intention of the management
to send out another four-horse outfit
within the next week or ten days, and
it is expected that frsm that timo on
shipments will be made about every ten
days. A force of twenty men is en-
ploycd at the mine, and the product
for the next shipment, Mr. King says,
is practically all sacked and ready for
hauling to the smelter. AS the weather
in the Silver Island country is never
very severe, it is not expected that the
"bad roads, which are detrimental to
shipments in some mining districts Of
the state, will interfere with the out
put.
Mr. King states that the first pay
ment Of $4,000 has been made on the
$4,000 bond under which a portion of
the company IS ground is held and from
present indications it is thought that
no difficulty will bo experienced in
meeting the remainder of the obliga
tion when the time comes.
Other Work Planned.
Mr.. King says that n number of min
ing men owning property in the district
are contemplating the development of
their holdings, and ero long plans Will
probably be perfected whereby work
will be started on tho properties of the
Old Glory and the Silver Island Con-
solidated companies.
Meager information has been received
in the city also concerning q new strike
Of silver~lead ore in the north end Of
tho district, where prospectors have
been engaged in locating mincralized
territory for some weeks past 1t is
said that as n result Of this new dis
covery the miners in and about Silver
Island are quito excited, and that new
claims are being staked out rapidly.

ELY CONSOLIDATED
LOOKS ENCOURAGING
Churn Drill Will Be Used to
Prospect and Determine
Volume of Water.

Manager Levy of the Ely Consoli-
dated has returned from a regular visit
of inspection to the mine and is well
pleased with conditions and prospects
as he found them there. a little change
or an encouraging nature has been en-
countered In the Zack shaft, Mr. Levy
states. an oXidized formation having
been broken into, with all indications
pointing to the near approach OF a
high grade ore body. Good progress
is being made in the crosscut to the
issure VEN, which will be reached in
n short time
On the 400 level in the Brilliant shaft
a winze is being sunk on the cross
assure, and though distance of a very
few feet had been made when Mr.
Levy left, all indications at this point
of tho work were satisfactory, The
drift to the east of the American shaft
being run from the $50 level, is open
ing up promising property.
Will Use Drill
Mr.. Levy has arranged for novel
system of prospecting, to be inaugu-
rated in the Zack shaft. A churn drill
will be dropped down the manway to
the 400 level, where it will pound its
way through the earth for an add.
tional 500 feet. This is for the double
purpose of determining the thickness
of the lime ernst that is believed to
cap the porphyry ore body and to de.
termine the flow of water that will be
developed with greater depth. This
drill VIII be operated in such n man
ner that it Will not be necessary to
suspend operations in the shaft and de-
velopment VIII go on as usual.

ELY AMALGAMATED
UNDER DEVELOPMENT
Work Is Opening Up Ore Bodies
of Considerable Importance
to Mines Future.

Development work on the Ely Anal
gamated, within sight and sound OF
the big smelter at McGill, is showing
up larger shoots of high grado ore from
which considerable production is be-
ing made, according to the Expositor,
Miners are sinking on the ore in two
places and will soon have enough out
for n ffty.ton shipment. A specimen
OF the ore weighing $50 pounds Is on
exhibition in front of the McGill Ma
tional bank at the smcltcr. where it
has excited the greatest wonder and
which will be sent to the office OF the
company in Salt Lake to show what
character of ore is found on the prop
erty. The development will be con
tlnued by several shafts which Will
follow down on the ore and hosting
plant will be placed at the shaft show
ing the best ore shoot.
Frederick Tunnel.
Work in the Frederick tunnel, which
is penetrating the mountain cast of the
smelling works ut McGlll. is progress
ing rapidly, two shifts being employed
in the work. The face is now in about
450 feet from daylight and is being
pushed straight ahead to prospect for
the big ledges which show on the sur
face and which will be cut at depth
of 500 feet.
The Frederick is the property in
which Jesse Knight recently purchased
an interest from j. F. Brim after he
made personal inspection Of the lead
silver district joining the smelter COM
pany's reserve on the east. The work
is the deepest that has been done In
the district and, with about fifty feet
more work in the tunnel, is expected to
open big ledge and prove that the
ore goes down to great depths.

CLEANERS AND OWNER
DIFFER AS TO GOODS
Plaintiff Declares Silk Was Best on
the Market-Defendant Ayers
1t Was Loaded with
Glue

The difference between a spot and a
stain was thoroughly explained yester-
day in Justice Pierce's court, where j.
Joos, proprietor Of the Suititorium, ap-
peared as defendant in an action for SIS
damages, brought by Mrs. c. NJ. Baugh-
man, who alleges that her fine silk
suit was ruined by the methods used to
take out the spots
The trial consumed most of the day,
and after hearing all the evidence JUS
tice Pierce allowed plaintiffs attorney
ten days in which to file new brief,
and the attorney for the defendant five
days in which to answer it,
According to the testimony Mrs.
Baughman read an ad in the paper In
which the Suititorium guaranteed the
spots never to come back"
There was considerable testimony re-
garding the quality of the silk. Mrs.
Baughman cOntended it was the best
taffeta on the market, while witnesses
for the other side said it was light silk
loaded with glue, which, when the
goods were cleaned, came out and left
holes in the cloth.
Mrs. Baughman declared the garment
had been ruined by the careless
methods of the cleaners, but the latter
declared the dress had not been placed
in the machine ordinarily used for
cleaning clothes, but had been sponged
by hand.
Mrs. Baughman interrupted the wit
nesses repeatedly and finally was warn
ed by the justice that any more inter
jectionS would be punished by a fine.

RESIDENTS OF HOLLYWOOD
OBJECT TO WATER RATES
Secretary of Union Water Company
Testifies-More Evidence Will
Be Heard Monday

After listening for two hours to the
testimony of witnesses relative to the
proposed regulation of water rates of
the Union Hollywood Water company
the supervisors yesterday took the
matter under advisement. until next
Monday. Meantime they will consult
with the district attorney in regard to
legal questions involved in the case.
o. E. Wern, secretary of the water
company, testified that the present
rate was $1.60 a month for 5000 gal
Ions, with 13 cents for 1000 gallons in
excess. These rates were increased
last July from a minimum of $1.50, and
10 cents a thousand. He stated that to
earn per cent on the capital invested
in the system a charge of $1.75 and 20
cents a thousand must be made.
The petitioners based their objec-
tons to the present rates on the fact
that some had laid their own pipes and
that in some instances the water COM
pany had been offered bonus to serve
them.
Further testimony will be taken
when the matter comes up Monday.

Had Been Accused of Cruelty to Fii-

and Ask to See Ring He
Wore
by Associated Press.J

NEW YORK, Feb. 23.-Speculatic1
was rife in army circles today over the
motives that could have driven Lieut..
John j. Moller, Eighth infantry, to
commit suicide last night.
AS a result a story was revived that
the young army officer had been Tilted
less than a year ago by a young wom-
an with whom he had become ac-
quainted while stationed at Governors
Island, and to whom he had been at
tent1Ve up to the time Of his departure
for the Philippines.
While in the islands Lieut.. Moller
was tried before a court-martial on a
charge of having condoned cruelty by
Filipino chiefs, but was exonerated, and
when he returned it was with the idea
of renewing his suit for the woman's
hand.
On landing at San Francisco, howev-
er, he learned that during his absence
she had become engaged to another,
and this preyed on his mind, his friends
declare.
The name of the woman is not given,
but she is said to have been married
some months ago to a noted athlete of
an eastern university.
Three y-oung women called at the
morgue late tonight and requested per-
mission to see the body of Lieut. Mol
Ter. They appeared deeply moved, and
the youngest inquired for a ring which
she said the lieutenant had worn on his
left hand. She was told the ring was
in the possession of the police

corning the case. They refused to give
their names or addresses.
