CASE DISMISSED
BY DISTRICT ATTORNEY

Quite a surprise was furnished in tn,
Madison Hicks high grade case thi,
morning when, Immediately after court
convened and the jurors were polled
DiStrict Attorney Tilden addressed the
court moving that the action be dis.
missed on the ground of insuffcieney of
evidence. In turn Judge Somers
granted the motion and exonerated the
bond of defendant.
Evidently the district attorney was
prompted to take the action because the
Consolidated Mines company had not
gwen assurance that satisfactory ex.
pert testimony regarding the original
lay of the ore in question would be
furnished. Past experience has Taught
the prosecution in high grade cases
that 1t is extremely difficult to prove
absolutely that ore found on any person
away from a mining property came
originally from any one mine. The only

NEVADA CONSOLIDATED TO
OPEN NEW SHOVEL WORKINGS

NEW YORK, May 19.-Pope Yeat
man. consulting engineer of the Nevada
Consolidated Copper company, is back
in New York after having spent almost
= month looking over the newer de
velopments at the properties OF The
company at Ely, Nevada. While his
trip made to the property at this time
was undertaken with a view of max
inc recommendations for future work
that might suggest itself, it was made
principally to enable him to determine
what policy the company should pursue
in regard TO opening up a second open
pit, similar to the Copper Flat work
ings from which the Nevada CONSOLE
dated company has been extracting the
largest share of its product to date.
The objective point of the new work
ings will be located at what is known
as the Liberty Group, about a mile west
of the present pit.
A railroad track has been laid TO the
ground, and a churn drill is at work
drilling a series of holes which are shot
to loosen the oveTburden for the steam
shovels. Three steam shovels and five
engines are now en- route from the East
and will be put to work OF the over
burden as soon as they arrive. In the
meantime, the new railroad line into
the present pit will be completed, which
will enable the steam shovels to take
another big slice of ore from the bot
tom of the pit and again bring ore ship
ments up to 5000 tons a day or over.
To Start Shovels Soon.
The overburden on the Liberty is said
not to exceed 20 feet in depth, while in
some sections of the field the sulphides
come much nearer the surface, hence its
removal will require much less time
than was required to prepare the orig
NAL pit for production. The ground has
been stripped of sage brush and is
ready for the shovels TO ommen bust
ness.
The Liberty Group of the Nevada
Consolidated joins the holdings of the
Butte & Ely company on the east and
Its DEVELOPMENT will. no Doubt. dem
cnstrate that the sulphide zone in that
section extends on through Butte & Ely
ground. The Giroux company controls
tne Butte & Ely, and the property was
well p~rospected last year by churn

made public, is understood to have been

district attorney. / have no doubt that
the district attorney has performed his
duty in the premises, and is acting from
strictly proper and high motives in the
matter. 1t would not be proper to
prosecute a case, even though an in
dictment had been returned, where the
district attorney has a reasonable
doubt as to the guilt of the defendant.
A defendant is entitled to a reasonable
doubt at every stage of the prosecu-
ton. And after the district attorney
has made a thorough investigation Of
the matter, and is assured therefrom
that a conviction cannot be secured, it
is not only proper, but his duty, to make
a motion of this character. The de-
PENDANT is therefore discharged, and
his bondsmen exonerated."
The prospective jurors in the box at
the time of dismissal were: E. p. SAM
mis-, J. C. +. Rendant, L. E. Wilson,
p. J. Riley, W. E. Sirbeck, w. j. Fink,
Carl Feutsch, M. f. Nogal, f. s. High

The talesmen were excused until to-
morrow morning when the case of L. M.
Dresser, charged with stealing con-
centrates from the Consolidated mill,
will come up for trial.

RICH ORES FOUND in
CHERRY CREEK Mines

ELY, May 19.-While stripping the
surface of his gold mines in the Coco
mongo district near Cherry Creek, Fred
Borchert opened up two parallel veins
of free gold ore, from which samples
have been taken carrying values as
high as 5000
The two leads lie about six inches
apart, and each of them are four
inches wide. The ore is of a milling
variety, and is rich enough to justify
its shipment to Salt Lake for treat
ment.
Mr.. Borchert has started a shaft on
the new discovery, and will endeavor
to find out if the strike goes down as
depth is attained.
A small amount of the rich ore is
being sacked daily by Mr.. Borehert,
and as soon as a sufficient amount OF
the picture rock has been sacked, the
entire consignment will be sent to Sail
Lake.
Before the summer is over it is the
intention of Mr.. Borchert to put two
stamps on the property, and handle
the ore by this method.
This claim was located abSat twelve
wears ago by William A. Watson, the
discoverer of the Cocomongo district.
and after the ground had been worked
bv Mr.. Watson for several years, u
was abandoned. Believing that excel
lent cold values could be obtained on
the claim. Mr.. Borchert took up the
ground about two years ago
