LEASERS RUSH WORK ON BROKEN HILLS

Assays of $500 were secrsru tn
week from the bottom of the 35-foot
shaft on the Helena lease on block 25t
This is particularly encouraging I'D
view of the fact that no values coul'l
be found at the surface where the shaft
was started.
The main shaft of the Broken Hills
company is now down $50 feet, and has
entered the blue porphyry which was
developed as the hanging wall of the
ledge by a drift on the l00-foot level.
The engine fer the hosting plant ct
the Broken Hills Lease Syndicate,
known as the Bowie lease, has arrived
and is now on the ground. The plant
will be installed as quickly as possible,
and work pushed on a larger scale.

forerunner of a good paying mine.
Cockings & Houlden have a shaft

THE MINES AND SHELTER
OF THE NEW LODI DISTRICT


The northwestern portion of Nye
county, comprising a number of dis.
tricts which have produced heavily Of
the precious metals, but which have
been neglected of late years because OF
attractive UNEMPLOYED fields, is being re-
%juvenated and bids fair to become one
of the richest portions of the state of
Nevada. This has been accomplished
largely through the contamination of
the plans of the Lodi Mines ompany
a Colorado corporation which, follow
ing the satisfactory development of its
large estates, is actively engaged in the
installation of a smelling plant, of an
initial capacity of 100 tons daily. This
plant, which is to be enlarged to 800
tons as soon as conditions warrant, is
to be ready to receive ores early in
April, and will treat custom ores as
well as the product of the company's
mines.

ores of a value of less than $50 per ton
is appreciated by mine owners in that
locality, who have long been handi.
capped by the heavy cost of transporta-
tion across forty miles of desert
country to the railroad and thence TO
the smelling plants in Utah. With a
local plant for the reduction of the ores
of the district all the old properties and
many new ones will be able to operate
with a liberal margin of profit, and the
year of 1909 will witness extensive min
ing operations in Lodi, Ellsworth, Ber-
lin, Phonolite, Duluth, Downeyvillc,
lone and other camps.
The Lodi Mines
The estate of the Lodi Mines com
pany comprises a number of patented
claims which cover, for a distance If

with the famous old producers of
Eureka and Phoebe. With a credited
production in excess of ST, 900 900, the
mines entered a period of inactivity
late in the SOS, caused by the tragic
death of the original locator, and it was
not until three years ago that posses
sion of this bonanza lode passed to the
Colorado people who organized the Lodi
Mines company. The mine, at that
time, was 500 feet in depth and there
was much ore of a high grade ready for
extraction. Shipments were inaugur-
ated from the start and the company
marketed a large tonnage, which was
hauled to Luning, a distance of forty
two miles and thence shipped to smelt-

Will Extend to Hickman.

Tiptonville, Tenn, Oct. 3.-Some OF
the officials of the Dyersburg Northern
Railroad Company are here to complete
plans that will lead to the extension OF
the road. This is a short line running
from Dyersburg to Tiptonville and has
been in operation a little more than two
years. 1t has recently been purchased
from the original company, and under
the new management it Us almost GER
tain that it will be extended at least as
far as Hickman, KY, the coming year.
1t has already been a great factor in the
development of Lake County, and will
be more so when it is completed. 1t

There has recently been added another

completed the traffic, both passenger
and freight, will be very heavy. The

Mr.. and Mrs. HI. G. Amberg, Friday af-

two years, and for months had been

in their factory uncompleted, awaiting
the various parts such as forgings, cast
ings, axles, etc, which they are unable
to get from the manufacturers of these
various parts. The result is, they are
not delivering cars as they anticipated,
and will not be able to deliver cars ac-
cording to schedule for ten or a dozen
months to come.
There are other manufacturers who
have taken deposit money from agents
and promised deliveries, and have been
unable, up to date, to procure from parts
manufacturers the various component
parts to complete n car.
There are still other manufacturers
backed up with ample capital and repu-
tation who are simply unable to buy
parts and axles at any price, and will
probably be confronted with this con-
dition for several months to come.
1t must be apparent from the above
that there is not going to be over prob
ably one-half the cars delivered previous
to the first Of July that the combined
manufacturers of the country announced
will be delivered.
The wise agents throughout the
country apparently realize this fact and
are now making a scramble to obtain
cars during the dull months of October,
November and December for the sake
of having them to deliver in the spring.
Experience is an expensive teacher,
and they don't want to be caught in the
same condition they were last spring,
where they were unable to deliver the
cars after they had gone to the expense
of selling them.
There are a few manufacturers of
popular priced cars who have protected
themselves and incidentally their Gus
toners and it is these people who will
be making the money, while the rest of
the industry will be crying for cars or
parts.

SHORTAGE NEXT YEAR.
Advises Agents to be Careful in Or
dering Cars.

Early in the summer, when every
thing was booming and the goose hung
high on the automobile horizon, there
were rumors from the factories that lee
one to believe that something like 800,
900 automobiles would be sprung on ar
unsuspecting public in 1910.
These figures were afterwards cut
down by experts to 200, 900 cars, but
just how this country, prosperous as i
undoubtedly is, was to absorb this tire.
mendous output of cars without causing
the downfall of the industry was not
made clear.
Whether these figures were eXaggerat.
ing or not makes little difference now.
as no such number of cars will now be
manufactured and there will probably
be a shortage Of cars rather than ar
over-production for the following rea-
sons:
First, because of parts manufacturers
cannot begin to fill their orders, and
secondary, on account of the Selden
patent decision, which has cast a wet
blanket over the half hitched plans OF
some promoters.
In this connection the agents and
purchasers of cars had better be very
careful when they make contracts for
the coming season to see that they are
doing business with factories who can
deliver the cars when they say they will.
SHORTAGE IN PARTS IN YES
Last year hundreds Of agents all over
the country invested practically all the
money they had in the world for rent,
advertising, statesmen and deposits to
manufacturers for cars to be delivered to
them in the spring of 1909.
These agents sold the cars, sent in
their orders to the factories for the cars
to be shipped, but many of the manu-
facturers were unable to ship them, for
the simple reason that they had more
orders than they had cars.
The result was many of these agents
lost both customers and money, and
some of them lost all they had, which
brought home very forcibly the remark
of one agent that 1T is not the number
of cars you sell, but the number of cars
you are able to deliver that determines
the profits"

 Estimating the four counties not yet heard from on the same basis as the other counties, there will be about 1900 applicants participating in the regular mid winter examination for State license While this number Is slightly below the number at the cor responding examination of last year. still it Is little above the average holding for several years past at the mid-winter examination.
 Among the applicants there are few first grade applicants and still asmall- CT number of applicants for life eertifi- cates. Most of the papers which have been received are those of applicants for second and third grade certificates.
 The Board of Examiners have ai- ready started on their work of looking over the mass of papers which have been received. and their report will be made as fast as possible"
 The next examination for teachers will be held fin July of this year.

the Near Eaat.
 Paris, Jan. 1l.-According to an tn- terview with high official in the Echo de Paris this morning there Is some likelihood of France assuming the role of mediator in the near East
 Tn the event of France undertaking this, she would first secure the ap- provai of Great Britain and Russia and assurances from Germany and It. ally that they would not oppose the attempt at mediation. The next step would be to ascertain if the principle of pecuniary indemnity would be &C., ceptable to both Turkey and Austria Hungary and that point now seems assured Therefore. all that would re- main would be to settle the amount concerning which France would make e proposal to the Hague tribunal.
 With regard to Montenegro and SerVia, the official says Frances so- lution would be the immediate con- struction of a railroad from Servia to the sea This would meet Servie's de- mand for access to the seq and di- rect connection with Montenegro and would assure the latter's independencs of Austrian domination These propo- sitions once accepted. the calling oi an international congress which wouit undoubtedly ratify them. would be- come certain. ....
