LEAD AND ZINC
ORES DUTLABLE
United States Appraisers
Override Importers
Contentious

In overruling the protests of the Con-
solidated Kansas City Smelling and
Refining company, the board of United
States general appraisers decided that
ores containing lead and zinc are duti-
able, not only on the lead but on the
zinc as assessed by the collector under
paragraphs 1S1 and 19S of the Payne
Aldrich tariff. The importers claimed
that only paragraph 1S1 applied and
that the assessment under paragraph
1872 was an error.
General appraiser Fisher who over
ruled the importers claim said:
IF it be seriously urged that ores
cannot be separated for the purpose
of classification. ten it is true that
as zinc bearing ores containing less
than 10 percent of zinc are provided
for free of duty under paragraph 1913.
the lead content of such ores would
escape the duty provided under para
graph 181. 1t would be error to hold
to this effect. The duty is assessable
on the lead or the zinc or both as the
case may be, irrespective of the CLASH
flcation of the remaining constituents
of such ores, under other para graphs
As well may 1t be said that as silver
ores are provided for free of duty. it is
permissible to ignore the lead content
when present in such ore. An exami-
nation of the amount Of lead and zinc
in the respective shipments shows at
a glance the varying proportions and
the substantial amounts of both met
ais present in the importations 1 am
not persuaded that either of such
metals should be ignored for classical
ton purposes"

NEW YORK LAWYER
AMAZED At MINE

Visits Chihuahua Camps and
Closes Deal for Big
Property.

Il have just returned from a business
| trtp,-a hurried trip TO chihuahua, .
said judge Floyd B. Wilson, of New
York City, upon his return to FL Paso
and have seen more mineral wealth
in place than one can conceive. I was
the guest of A. l. Eaton, manager of
the great POtosi Mining company, and
of ". ]. Mitchell, general manager OF
, the mines of the American Smelling
and Refining company in Santa Eu-
lalia, near Chihuahua. 1 have seen in
the subterranean vaults all the way
from 25 to so million dollars worth of
ore.
The POtOsi Mines.
TN the Potosi mines are immense
bodies Of ore running 20 ounces of sill
yer. Of which the company is mining
and shipping about 1000 tons a month
and clearing IS gold a ton. The ores
are silver, lead, zinc, carbonates, sui
phides and calamine- The main depos-
it's or zinc carbonate run as high as
80 percent and are found at 100 feet
depth. The holdings are the Potosi.
Ounce de Mayo, Santa Gertudis, and
Santa Ana mines in the Santa Eula-
lalia range-a great limestone uplift
with intrusive pOrphyries. Just to think
of a mine yielding $500 a day profit.
The PotOsi is a close corporation Of
New York capitalists. They market
their ores at the lead and zinc smell
ters.
Other Mines Rich.
In the same camp are the mines of
the American Smelling and Refining
company, Comprising the Santo Do
mingo. Nina Vieja. Sin Nombre. H.
dalgo Valerdena, Dolores and San An
tonic mines, covering about 800 per-
tenencias and producing silyer-lead
carbonates in great cha nnels or cav
ems in the limestone There are nu-
merons shafts on the properties, some
over 500 feet deep. I saw the great
death hole" in these mines where a
cavein occurred IA years ago, burying
and crushing the native miners like
rats-147 of them-in the 500 foot
level. They have never been exhumed
to this day.
These vast cavernous excavations
are among the wonders of the world
Untold millions have been taken from
them. Great cathedral-1ike vaults
large enough TO thrust your court
house into, are mute witnesses Of the
immensely OF those old ore deposits
The company recently struck a great
chamber where the ore is blocked out
into several million dollars. The low
est grade ore carries 20 ounces silver
and rich streak from 80 TO 500 ounces
per ton The ores are shot down to the
railway on aerial trans and thence
hauled to smelters.'
Judge Wilson closed an important
deal on some great old mines in the

called the Barranca del Cobre, and ex-

Navy Life First Introduced Into

Believing that heUnitedStates

selected James B. Connolly, the

to accompany the American
Fleet on it's tour around the world.
Mr.. Connolly did not go in the
capacity of reporter but on pure
]y literary mission.
After studying naval life at
first hand, imbuing himself with
the color and life, he has begun
writing a series of remarkable
stories. The first Of these, enti-
tied 1.-The Wireless Night of Hal

number of Hampton's Magazine.
This story, which teens with ac-
ton and excitement, will be fol-

1t is believed that in this series
the United States Navy is used
for the first time as a setting for
fiction.
The publishers of Hampton's
