LEACHINC COPPER
ELECTRICALLY
NEW PROCESS PROVING SuC-
CESSFUL IN LOWER
CALIFORNIA

! Leaching and separation of copper
from its associated gold and silver
values is now being successfully done
on large commercial scale by the Cram
electrical teaching process that has been
installed in the 100-ton mill of the
California Gold & Copper company, in
Exchequer Mining district, San Bernar-
dino county, California. This dis
trict is close to the Nevada line, and
the operations of the company are of
especial interest TO Nevada mining men,
as it demonstrates that copper associated
with gold or gold and silver ores, can
easily be separated and precipitated as
pure copper, thus rendering the gold
and silver values easy of extraction by
cyanide, says the Goldheld News
The presence of copper in gold and
silver ores has long been source of
vexation and expense i'll milling, and
has been an obstacle that has been
almost impossible to overcome on ac-
count of the refractory character it
gives to the ores, making them very
difficult to treat by cyanide.
A. III. Cram, president and general
manager of the California Gold &
Copper company, and inventor of the
electric teaching process that is being
used in their big plant was III Goldfield
recently to inspect the Buffers filters
and the filter presses at the Consolidated
mill, with view of making some posi-
BILE improvement in his own plant. He
brought with him a large slab of pure
copper about Is inches long, foot wide
and quarter of all inch thick as
sample of what is being accomplished i'll
the separation and precipitation of cop
per. carrying gold and silver values, bv
the electrical teaching process.
The mill is equipped with crushers,
crushing rolls, grinders, mixer and
cyanide tanks. The ore runs from per
cent up to 40 per cent i'll copper, carry
ing gold and silver values. After the
ores are crushed, ground and mixed,
the pulp or shines are provided with
strong electric batteries connected with
very thin sheets of pure copper. BY the
electric teaching process the copper is
separated from the gold and silver and
precipitated on the thin copper plates
until they acquire the desired thickness
and all of the copper is separated from
the gold and silver. The gold and
silver shines are then run into cyanide
tanks and these metals extracted by the
usual method. The teaching completely
overcomes the difficulties usually encoun-
tered i'll cyaniding gold aud silver ores
that carry copper, and turns the copper
into very desirable Independent com
mercial product

RICH COLD STRIKE AT MOUNT GRANT

A rich strike was made on Tuesday of
this week i'll the Mount Grant district
south of here. The strike is at the south
west end OF the mountain and east of
Lappan Canyon. A ledge of ore about
Is inches wide is the most important

thousands i'll gold. The ground lies a
mile and half east of the Albert Bovard
property in Lappan Canyon. The strike

BOYS, of Rawhide, Adams and Miller of
Hawthorne, and many others have by
this time located the greatest portion of
the country around the strike. This
country has been prospected for years
and some very rich stringers of ore have
been found and also some good placer
ground in the I.appan meadows, but the
recent strike is said to be larger, richer and
more permanent looking than ANYTHING
heretofore found. 1t is possibly the
mother lode vein of that section OF the
country.

NEVADA WINS RATE CASE.

marked extent, they draw a line upoi
indiscriminate market competition.
The effect of the decisions will be t.
notify the carriers that they will b,
allowed to meet water competition to {
reasonable extent, but that the location
of markets hereafter will be left more tc
the play of commercial causes than to
the will of the traffic managers of rail
ways.
The cases involved are those of the
city of Spokane against the Northern
Pacific Railroad company, known popu-
larly as the Spokane rate case. the
Commercial Club. of Salt Lake City,
against the Atchison, Topeka and Santa
Fe Railwsy company and others; the
Railroad Commission of Nevada against
the Southern Pacific company and others;
and the Mariposa County Commercial
Club against the Santa Fe, Prescott and
Phoenix Railway company and other
carriers.
The intentment of the amended
laws, says Commissioner Lane, lis to
make its prohibition of the higher rate
for the shorter haul rule of well nigh
universal application from which this
commission may deviate only in special
cases and then to meet transportation
circumstances which are beyond the car
riers' control
1t is held that ''in the light of history
it is not to be gainsaid that the trans
continental line must give consideration
to sea competition" 1t was held also,
however, that carriers herein involved
have not shown that undue discrimina-
ton was not effected by their rate adj
justments between points in Nevada and
points in California; nor have they estab
if extended by them from eastern points
outside the zone of water influence, are
not fully compensatory.
The trnscontinental carriers, therefore,
are ordered to readjust their present
rates by October Is next from eastern
territories to intermediate points as COM
pared with the rates from Nevada points
to the Pacific Coast This will make a
reduction of rates to Reno and Nevada
common points from the east of approx
mately 333 per cent.
In the course of the opinion, Commits
sioner Lane says:
I'VE desire to be extremely conserva-
tive in this first application of the new
law and to require an adjustment of rates
that will be safely within the zone of our
discretion. For this reason we have de-
cide1 that the transcontinental carriers
serving Reno and other points on the
main line of the Central Pacific shall
make no higher charges upon any article
carrying commodity rate than is con-
temporaneously in effect from Missouri
river points, such as Omaha and Kansas
City, to coast terminal points. This
principle we shall also expect to be ap-
piled on commodity rates to all main
line intermediate points in Nevada and
California.

A Washington, d. c., dispatch of th'
oath inst, says: In what are known a.
the Spokane Reno Pacific Coast cases
the Interstate Commerce Commission
has ordered a material reduction ir
| freight rates from the east to points be-
tween Denver and the western terminals
of the transcontinental railroads.
For many years the railroads have ex.
acted from shippers to intermediate
points, such as Spokane and Reno.
| higher rates on eastern freights than
were charged for the much longer hauls
to Seattle, San Francisco and other Pa
cific Coast points.
The theory has been that the railroads
must meet water competition to the Pa
ci6c Coast.
The higher rates to intermediate
points, arbitrarily fixed, have been de-
Tended by comparison with the coast
rates, plus theoretical back haul from
the coast to the inland stations along the
lite.
The commission recognizes the right
of railroad to meet water competition
to Pacific Coast points, but practically
wipes out the back haul rates to inter
Rocky Mountain territory. 1t lays down
what it considers would be fair and just
rates to various freight zones in the west
and gives the railroads until October IS
to adjust their tariffs accordingly.
The commission also lays down the
important principle that hereafter rail-
roads will not be allowed to fix arbi-
trary market limits, and that hereafter
commercial conditions rather than the
will of railway traffic managers shall
control rates on transcontinental trans
portation.
port. They affect directly all freight
rates between the Atlantic ocean and the
Pacific Coast Particularly they affect the
rates in the territory lying between Den
yer and Pacific Coast points. Hereafter
the rates paid by shippers will be gov
erned by strict Interpretation of the
long and short-haul clause.
The commission holds in the so-called
Reno case that traffic originating at Chi
cago and III Chicago Territory moving
ing under commodity rates may have
rate seven per cent higher to intermedi-
ate points than that imposed on freight
originating in Chicago and Chicago ter
ritory destined to the Pacific Coast ter
minals. From Buffalo Pittsburg terri
tory the rates may rise above those de-
manded from the same points to Pacific
Coast terminals to the extent of fifteen
per cent; while from New York and
trunk line territory the rate charged
shall not exceed Is per cent over Pacific
Coast terminal rates.
These are the first decisions announced
by the commission in which a definite
principle i'll respect of the long and
short-haul provision is laid down.
While the opinions fully recognize the
influence of water competition, to a

APPEAL.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, Dec. T.
Make human life more sacred ir the

protected here as it is in Maine or
New York or New Jersey and the cap
ital, the brains and the brawny arms
necessary 10 develop the immense re-
sources of the South will be attract
ed.
Such was the keynote of a ringing
speech Frank p. Glass, editor Of the
Birmingham News, delivered last
night at the banquet at the Hermitage
Hotel rendered by the Nashville Ban
ner and the Tennessean and Areri-
can to the representatives of the AS
ISOLATED Press papers which are mere
attending the semi-annual meeting of
the southern and Texas divisions OF
that association.
Mr.. Glass address was an inl,as
stoned plea for the editors of the
South to throw safeguards around hui
man life and do everything in their
power to further the ends of justice
and the swift punishment of men Who
slay their fellowman He said he
spoke the more feelingly on the sub
ject because his own father was slain
at the entrance of his home by an
assassin.
Thirty-f1ve representatives of the
leading newspapers of the South, and
guests who brought the number OF
dinners up to sixty, cheered Mr. Glass
sentiments to the echo, showing the
hostile attitude of the press to the
gunman and the courts and the public
officials who make murder safe.

MEXICO CITY, Dec. 7-Somewhere
between Roma, little town in Texas
on the Rio Grande, and Brownsville,
opposite Mantamoras, the Mexican
side at the mouth of the river, Gen.
Bernardo Reyes is lodging Texas
Rangers and Mexican Rurales, if the
information sent to the national pal
ace is correct. Whether the indicted
general is planning to run the line
of Mexican troops and enter the inte-
rior, or whether he expects to make
his way to the gulf and there embark
for foreign lands or for some point
in the south of his country, is purely
conjecture.
The government has been informed
by it's secret service agents that
Reyes has crossed the border. Presi-
dent Madero stated that Reyes had
appeared at Mier, small town oppo-
site Roma, and that later reports indi-
Gated that he was now moving toward
the gulf, either on the American or
the Mexican side of the river.
The minister of the interior, Abram
Gonzales, expressed the opinion that
Reyes was trying to get to the coast
to board a steamer that would trans
fer him later to one going to Europe.
