has been in progress during the last
few weeks, and at present nearly
all this has been completed.
The company is at present dry
ing out its furnaces and they ex-
pect to blow them in some time
this month or early in the next.
However the officials are anxious
to have everything running and in
shipshape several days before the
new year arrives 1t is to be
hoped their expectations will bear
fruit
The North Bell mining company's
properties which, have been idle
a long time, are again showing
signs of life This company is
owned and controlled by Tonopah
men, the owners being McQuillan,
| Hall and Seitz. The Richmond
mine, which is on the North Bell
! Mining companys property, has
ore in sight. In fact they have
been in ere almost from the grass
roots, but the principal drawback
of this promising property is trans
portation facilities.
Were this company's ground neal
a railroad there would be at leas
two dividend paying mines in thi
vicinity. Luning, SO miles east o
this property, is the nearest rail
road point, and the ore is not o
high enough value to permit trans
portation by freight teams. Blu
this property will come into it
, lown before many more moons.

JOHN D. MURPHY
FOREMAN OF THE r1IzpAH
LIES SERIOUSLY ILL
Has Been Ailing for Some Time, and 1t Was
Thought He Was Entirely Cured of His
MaIady After His Trip to CaIiforeia.

Word reached the Bonanza this
morning that John d. Murphy, fore
man of the Tonopah Mining COM
pany, and most familiarly known
as The Grand Old Man of the
Mizpah," had very bad night.
Mr.. Murphy has been ailing for
five or six months, and everything
known to medical science has been
done for him in an effort to bring
him back to his former self.
About three months ago, Mr..
Murphy, under the advice of his
physicians, left Tonopah for south
ern California, where he basked in
the sun of the Golden Gate, the
land of the setting sun, for about
two months During his stay in
California he improved wonderful

ceived a lasting benefit from his

that time he has been ailing more
or less, but it is with regret tina

great character of manhood is fas
failing, and last night spent mos
miserable night. In fact it wa

News of an encouraging nature is
at hand from the Berlin district, all
the mines which are being worked
show improvement. At Grantsville,
rs miles from Tonopah, it is stated
that a San Francisco company has
taken a lease and bond on the old
Horn Silver mine and extensive de-
'velopment work will begin as soon
as the necessary repairs and some
new machinery, which is expected
to arrive in the near future, are
set in place and ready for active
operation.
The reports brought in from the
mine state that in the bottom of
the shaft there is good ore. 1t
must be remembered it has been
long time since the Horn Silver
mine has been worked to any great
extent However, many parts of
the mine have small bodies of pay
ore, and it is believed with the
necessary development these bodies
will grow to great size and eventu-
ally become permanent. The find.
ing of pay ore in the shaft is prov.
ing beyond question that the con-
tention of those who believed that
the mine was bottomed by the ole
company is a mistake.
There can now be no question
but that the values go down, anC
it now only remains to determin,
the size of the ore bodies to be ex
pected as depth is attained ant

in the upper levels.
All these improvements will
mean a substantial increase in
the payroll at Grantsville, as many
more men will be employed. Be-
sides many smaller properties are
beginning to show signs of life, and
before spring rolls around there is
no question but that this will be

and accepted the solution reached
as the most practical one.
Edward n. Nockels, secretary of
the Chicago Federation of Labor,
re-asserted today over reports to
the contrary, that he did not come
here to represent Samuel Gompers,
president of the American Fedora
tion of Labor, and he did not so
ACT.
THAT is a lie---an absolute lie,
ho said.
Did you keep Gompers informed
of the progress of the negotia-
tions? was asked.
II did not" said Nockels.
Attorney Darrow took cognizance
of the attitude taken toward him
by various labor organizations,
II have given my best ability all
of my life to organized labor and
the poor" he said ''If labor and
my friends misunderstood me in

District Attorney John d. Fred
ericks informed the Associated
Press that Bert H. Franklin, a de-
tective employed by the Mcnamara
defense and now under arrest on a
charge of attempting to bribe
George n. Lockwood, a venireman,
with $4,000, actually paid to Robert
F. Balm, the first sworn juror in
the case, $400 and promised $500
more at the end of the trial if he
would vote for acquittal or secure
a disagreement of the jury.
The district attorney produced a
sworn copy of testimony by Mrs
Robert f. Balm, wife of the juror
in his office last Friday. Mrs. Balm
not only told of the first meeting
but related in detail how Franklin
came to her house on October 6
a few days before her husband was
summoned to serve on the jury

LOS ANGELES, Dec. o.-JameS
B. Mcnamara was sentenced to life
Imprisonment by Judge Bordwell
at 1926 this morning Before
sentence was imposed James B. Nc
Namara's written confession was
read in open court. Prosecutor
Fredericks declared emphatically
that no bargain had been made
with the McNamaras. James b.
Mcnamara said the written confess
sion was absolutely true and Judge
Bordwell said leniency was extend
ed to the prisoners for other
reasons than non-intent to commit
murder Then he declared he had
no desire to take the life of any
man and imposed the life sentence.
John j. Mcnamara again confessed
his guilt to the charge of blowing
up the LleWellyn Iron Works. The
same procedure was gone over as
was the case with his brother
James, and the sentence was pro-
nounced, he being given 10 years
in San Quentin. There was no
demonstration with the throng of
people that had waited long and
patiently to get one glimpse of the
men who net only proved to be
traitors to the cause of labor, but
murderers of innocent workmen.
Many reports were current that the
scoundrels did not receive their
just deserts.
LOS ANGELES, Dee. Organ
ICED labor was represented at con-
ference of counsel at which it was
decided to enter pleas of guilty for
the McNamaras. This much was

This move Is interpreted to mean that

1t Is estimated that from sixty 10 sev-

while It is tolerably certain that the Earl
Of Halsbury cannot muster nifty votes
1t is considered more likely that he will
be able to gather in only twenty or

LONG HOURS FOR
WORKERS IN STEEL
Report Shows That Men Work
Every Day and Receive
Small Pay.

WASHINGTON. Aug. 1.-Secretary
Nagels report on conditions in the iron
and steel industry wss the result OF a
special investigation made In response to
a resolution OF Senator Borah. II covers
practically all the iron and steel plants
in the United States.
The fact that stands out most strik-
ingly in any study OF the labor conditions
In the iron and steel industry In the
United States" says the report, 'is the
extent 10 which the twelve hour day and
week Of seven days will prevail IN this
industry"
Much of the Sunday work is no more
necessary than in other industries. says
the report.
'It Is therefore In striking contrast to
the general tendency In other industries" ,"
said the report, Ito find in great basic
industry that approximately only 10 per
cent OF the 10000 employees In special
Iron and steel occupations work less than
sixty hours per week and almost 80 per
cent .seventy-two hours or over per
week"
Nearly so per cent of the employees
are foreign-born and nearly two-thrds
Of these are Slavic.
Almost half OF the 90. 600 employees re-
ceive less than Is cents an hour. one
quarter under % cents an hour and the
other one-fourth % cents and over an
hour, a few very highly-skil en-
ployees. however, receive 81 % an hour.
Those receiving 30 cents an hour and over
number less than one-twcntieth.
