and there is much activity in his dis
trict.
The Good Springs district, aceor, ling
to Mr.. Williams, is now shipping about
90 tons of ore per day, mostly IN zinc'
The concentration In curse Of eoustruc-

taken from Joan oD the main line of
the Clark road, to Sandy valley, a
journey Of 20 miles in the direction of

ANOTHER STRAW
POINTING To

WINNEMUCCA, New. New. 90. -
Another pointer indicating that there
Is something in the wind in connection
with the construction of the propose |
~Ely-Goldfeld railroad is the report that
a deal has been made ror the Hot Creek
Consolidated Mines company, owning
properties at Hot Creek, Nye county,
about five miles north of Typo. The
company has given an option on all its
treasury stock, $50 shares, to the White
Investing Company, a corporation with
offices in New York city, and the White
company is also taking options on all
the shares issued to stockholders, with
the intention of resuming work on the
properties after the first of next year.
An agreement was entered into Oct.
26 between John w. Brock of Phila-
delphia, as president of the Hot Creek
company, and w. F. White for the In
vesting company, covering the terms
of the option for control of the COM
pany. The $50 shares of treasury stock
will be purchased by the White COM
pany for 20 cents a share at the rate Of
not less than $3.50 shares per month.
The money received from the sale Of
the shares will all be expended in de-
veloping the mines and the option on
the block of stock will run to Dec. 81,
1912.
The Hot Creek Consolidated company
owns the old Williams and Rattlesnake
mines at Hot Creek and is capitalized
for 100000 dollar shares. There was
a mill on the Williams property in the
early days of it's discovery, where the
rich silver ores were treated. The
company owns about 80 claims alto

been extended on some parts to a depth
of 300 feet. In the 800 level of the

BOOM 1IMESA AROUND
The MASON VALLEY

G. M. Fraser, manager of the Neva'
da Copper Belt Railway company, was
in town yesterday from Mason, where
he is busily engaged in extending his
line. He reports that every prospect
is favorable and that already the rail
road is receiving a large patronage
both in passenger and freight traffic,
says the Reno Journal.
An average of 700 passengers a
month are carried over the road, lc-
cording to Mr.. Fraser, and he had pie
ments of potatoes which are making
Mason valley famous in the San Fran
cisco market. One hundred and thirty
ears of potatoes have already been
shipped, and one of the pictures repre-
sents a train consisting of fourteen
carloads of spuds in a solid shipment.
A standard locomotive is used for the
freight traffic and in addition motors
are in commission for the passengers.
The Copper Belt Railway is now pro-
crossing at the rate of 1000 feet a day
in the direction of Smith Valley, and
when that route is completed an addi-
tional outlet for the rich agricultural
lands in that valley will be given.
Mr.. Fraser reports that the track to
the new smelter is complete and hat
already twelve to fifteen ears OF ma
terial for the construction work have
arrived.

STATE MAKER Is
TAKEN BY
DEATH

CARSON CITY, New. Nov. %
Henry Marvin Yerington, one of Nav.
da's most prominent and wealthy \;
oneers and a builder of the west
ed away here at 4 O'Clock yests,s.u
afternoon at the advanced age Of 90
years.
Mr.. Yerington came to Nevada
1868 when at the age of IS years. III.
birthplace was Colburn, Canada. Al
most Immediately upon his arrival !,
the state he began the eonst -er lioo os
the Merrimac mill, the first to be con.
structed on the Carson river. Late,
he built the Virginia and Truckee rail
road, of which he was president at the
time of his death. de was also instr.
mental in the construction of the C. G
c.. railroad.
In the affairs of the Southern Devel.
opment company which later came IN
own thousands of acres in the yieipit,
of Lucky Boy, he was also prominent
For him the town of Yerington was
named. The Carson Water Works .
also owned by this corporation. The
Inyo Development company, operating
at Keller, was, in addition, one of Mr..
Yerington's enterprises, and he was
largely interested In numbering about
Lake Tahoe, and in later converting It
into a resort.
III. M. Y%erington has been one of the
most prominent and interesting charae-
tiers in Nevada's history. He has besn
a "builder of the west" In his en-.
terprises he has always been ~associat-
ed with such great ame in ~railroai
and finance as Coils p. Huntington and
others of that school. Although al.

sonal attention to the Virginia and
Truckee railroad up to the time of his
death, and could be seen driving back
and forward from his Office with the
regularity of an employee. He was of
distinguished presence and a gentle
man of the old school.
Deceased is survived by his wife and
three sons, Edward, James and Hume

prominent members of the Masonic or

tor OF the Evening Star:

To the Editor of the Evening Star:
1 would like to commend the action
of the STAR in starting the relief FUND
for the unfortunate persons who were
affected by the horrible holocaust Of
Saturday. It is certainly a most char
liable enterprise. Many of those who
were killed or seriously injured were the
sole support OF q family of children, or
of an invalid father or mother. Many
OF these survivors would have to go to
the poorhouse, or some other charitable
institution, If it were not for the aid
given through your fund. The people
Of this city are also to be commended
for the generous name in which they
have replied. to your call for contribu-
lions. They show their heartfelt sorrow
for the sufferers from this awful catas-
trophe, and come nobly to the aid Of
their fellow residents. II. j.. T.

The increase in rates to Newark and
the Oranges amount to SO little that it
hardly seems possible that families

To the Editor OF the Evening Star;
1t is to be regretted tina the public
always has to pay so dearly to find out
where some Of the weak spots are n

ago that we learned Of the great IL
justice that is being done to the
people Of Newark through short
weights and measures, and the Eve
ming STARS revelation came as a
shock and a surprise to tho residents
of the city.
1t was shown at that time that lack
of help in the department OF weights
and measures was largely re- 'onsible
for the increase in the short-weight
evil.
On the heels Of this expose comes the
information, following the disastrous
fire of Saturday, that the department
Of the building superintendent is also

How many more OF our city depart

I attended a funeral recently of a
maj who was buried from the City
Hospital. This poor unfortunate had
no place to be buried from, and as the
fellow-members OF his union went in
q body they were compelled to view
the rem~ainskjkethe morgue OF the hos
pital.
The clergyman was there and per-
formed the service of his church in this
gruesome room, and from the morgue
he was buried.

accomplished at a very small cost to

INCREASED ZEAL nv TRUST PROSECUTION

ea HERE has been much cry and little wool in the prosecution oil
the trusts by the Department of Justice at Washington.
The net result, so far, of all the ostentatious work OF At
torneyGeneral Wckersham is the bringing of the cases of TWO
trusts, tobacco and oil. before the United States Supreme Court,
where these cases have been hanging fire for many months. The
attorney general has now begun a prosecution against the sugar
trust to have that great corporation dissolved. This trust was
criminaHy prosecuted because of the outrageous weighing frauds at
the customs house. by which the government was robbed of millions
of customs dues. The outcome of that prosecution was pitfuly
small compared with what it would be in England. There the cul-
pit directors would be sent to prison. Here a few underhngs, not
stockholders or officers of the company, were convicted and in-
prisoned. The responsible officers and directors go scotfree. They
are the men who profted by the frauds that had extended over a
period of years. It is impossible to believe that they were not
privy to what was going on. since it was all for their exclusive profit.
The recent election was a wonderful inspiration to official duty all
over the country. 1t is dvering to witness its effect. But in how
many cases is there any sincerity or real desire for reform among
those who are just now displaying a new zeal in office?
