The public Service commission

berger, to Virginia City to be pre-
sent at the cornor's inquest as to the
cause OF yesterdays deplorable acc
ident whereby one man was killed
outright by electrocution and four
others injureed.
Mr.. Freudenberger will also in
vestigate the conditions OF the cleo
trical plant with reference to the
character and efficiency OF service
and the safety OF both the public and
the employees

infancy, and accidents such as that
in Virginia City are too frequent.
1t is part of the duty OF the Public
Service Commission to do all in its
power 10 prevent them, and every
possible effort will be put forth to
that end.

Developing Ore
in the Mines

More prospecting will be required
than has been in the new ore body of
the Mexican to definitely determine
the extent of the second-class ore.
In addition to that of the hrst-class,
but the developments to date make
certain large area OF milling grade
ore. 1t is the big tonnage Of low
grade material that undoubtedly en-
courages the company to put up a
new mill, the supply of ore being of
an indefinite figure, but surely sufh-
cient to warrant investing in reduc-
ton works. Appearances on the
24OO level along the Union line, also
indicate that the latter mine will
have call for milling facilities soon.

b. f. Leete OF Reno, came over
yesterdy on the motor and spent a
few hours in this city. Mr. Leete is
one OF the pioneers OF Nevada and
was among those who made the
paths that later became roads
through this state. He landed in
Nevada before the ComstOck was
known and Carson was but a trading
post Reno was unknown. Mr..
Leete, in speaking of the Comstock,
stated thaat he was located in this
city and hearing OF the find on the
hill he rode up there and was shown
lot of black looking rock. 1t did
not impress him as being worth
much and he left the camp for the
valley which appealed to him. At
this time there was not even wag
oil road leading to the discovery.
He was asked what became of his
salt works, with which he endeavor
ed to interest the Nevada people. He
stated that he had sold the ground
to the Southern Pacific people. He
struggled with the industry for years
and in spite OF the fact that he was
turning out a chemical-pure producct
he could not get the people to pat
ronize the industry Since he dis
posed of the ground he has never
visited the scene where he spent a
great deal of energy and much good
money.
He also talked of the old times

William E. Curtis, special car
respondantt OF the Chicago Record

Senator:
Mr. Newlands is a man OF strong
social instincts and good fellowship.
He has beautiful home in the
suberbs or Washington and another
at Reno, Nevada, where he loves to
entertain congenial spirits He has
a lovely and accomplished wife, a
group of attractive daughters, who
are married and living around him,
and his home life is ideal
lhe movement to secure his
nomination as the Democratic can
dldate for the Presidency has been
undertaken without his encourage
ment and probably without his
knowledge and thus far is confined
to his friends and admirers and to
several prominent and progressive
Democrats who are convinced the
Pacific coast is entitled to recog-
milton and that Mr. Newlands is the
strongest man they can put forward.
Opportunity will be offered the
other coast and the mountain states
to participate, and if the signs are
suttlcietly encouraging, Mr. New
lands will be formally brought out
as a candidate before the convention
next year.

During the Pioneer Day at Reno
Sam Davis referred to Leete as be
ing one of the first gamblers in the

never played card in his life, He
was never associated in a gambling
game of any nature and the only
thing he ever tackled in a gambling
way was trying to make business
where it was impossible in Nevada
