FRED CORKILL
resigns FROM The
west END CON.
LOCAL SUPERINTENDENT GOES
TO JOIN WIFE WHO is IN
ILL HEALTH.

Fred Corkill, who for the last
three years has officiated as SUI
perintendent of the West End Con-
solidated Mining company, has
rendered his resignation and leaves
this morning for Berkeley, CAL,
where he will join Mrs. Corkill,
who left over a month ago on ac-
count of i'll health. The reason
given by Mr.. Corkill for severing
his connections with the company
is to be with Mrs. Corkill, who is
unable to stand this climate.
The present excellent showing
of the West End is due to the
methods of Mr.. Corkill in the
mining and extraction of ore. He
is regarded as one of the most
conservative mining men in the
camp and whenever he gave out
a statement it could be regarded
as the whole truth. He has mined
in southern Nevada for years, hav-
ing continuously been connected
with different properties owned and
controlled by BoraX Smith. When
Mr.. Corkill informed the officers
that he desired to resign, F. H
Brady, former superintendent OF
the Belmont, was chosen in his
stead, with the title of genera
manager, Ben f. Edwards also hav
ing resigned
1t is with regret that the people
of Tonopah witness the departure
of Mr.. Corkill, although he stated
last evening that possibly HI
would return in about six months
1t is understood that he will TAX
charge of mining property IL
Oregon, but nothing definite coul'
be learned concerning this mat
ter.
