BY TON0PAH BELMONT

The Tonopah Belmont Develop
ment company at a directors meet
ing in Tonopah declared their regu-
lar quarterly dividend of rs cents
per share. The amount to be paid
through this dividend will be $685.

dends by this company of $2,465,-

toward completion very nicely. In
the month of OCTOBER the net earn

nice New Years gift to the lucky
ones.

NATURAL GAS NEAR CARSON.

Natural gas has been tapped at
the we'll in the Raycraft ranch
which is being bored by the state
machine. The gas was first dis
covered by Charles Watson, the en-
gineer in charge of the work. A
length of casing was being put on
and a light was lowered down the
pipe to inspect a joint. Immediate
ly there was an explosion and the
light shot out of the pipe, followed
by a blaze which went into the air
some six or eight feet. The flames
soon burned out and in a few
moments another light was put
down with the same experience. Sew
eral times during the afternoon the
gas was tested with the result of a
pretty fiame.-Carson News.

BIG MINING SUIT
IS FINALLY ENDED

After over ten days Of trial in
yolving mining interests estimated
in value over a million dollars, the
case of Bethune against Hodson and
others, including the Nevada Hills
Mining company, was closed Tues
day.
The day was given over principal
ly to the arguments of distinguished
counsel for plaintiff and defendants.
Following the conclusion of the
arguments the attorneys left Reno
and will now file written briefs set
ting forth their contentious to the
law. 1t is not expected that a de-
eision may be had for several months
for the testimony is voluminous and
the briefs may not be expected for
several weeks.
Judge j. p. O'Brien presented the
principal argument for the plaintiff,
Bethune. Judge Dickson of Salt
Lake made the argument Tor II de-
fendents.
The case goes back to the early
history of the camp of Fairyiew,
when the property now known as
the Nevada Hills was discovered.
Bethune and Hodson, one of the de-
PENDANTS went to Fairview, and Hold
son was charged with persuading
Bethune to dispose of his interest in
claims located through fraudulant
representations. When Bethune
found out that he had parted with
his share for less than it could be
sold for, he protested and sued the
original partners and agents as well
as those taking title from him.

HEAVY WIND AND SANDSTONE.

A terrific sand storm swept across
the southern portion OF Nevada Fri
day night and Saturday and not only
endangered the lives of prospectors
on tn deserts but did considerable
damage. In Las Vegas the wind
blew away a portion of the roof of
the Overland hotel, carried away a
number of signs, broke windows,
blew over chimneys, caved in the
wall of a new apartment house and
blew the roof off of a bakery. No
one was injured. The sand so filled
the air for a time that 1t was difficult

SHERIFF IN PURSUIT
OF NEGRO FUGITIVE

After having traced his quarry
through five counties in California a
special officer from Modesto arrived
in Reno Thursday to spread the dis
cription of a negro brute who is
wanted on a charge of rape. The
officer, II. A. O'Donald, a special dep
uty sheriff of Stanislaus county, has
been on the trail of the fugitive since
November 18th and at one time was
but a few hours behind the wanted
He was sent out by the eiti-
zens of Modesto who subscribed to
a purse to defray his expenses, and
while on the hunt O'Donald has noti-
fed peace officers and the public of
every little and big community he
visited.
An unknown negro attacked and
raped a seYenteen-year-old white girl
near Modesto on the night of No
yember 18th and in order to effect
his capture a reward of s1075 has
been offered. O'Donald took the
trail on the day following the attack
and traced the negro from Modesto
to Oakdale. Then the trail lead
through Eugene, Milton, Angels
Camp, San Andreas, Jackson, Ply
mouth, Lathrop, Eldorado City,
Diamond and terminated at Placer
vile last Thursday night.
At Plaeeryille the officer was no.
titled that the negro nad been OBJ
served at that place the night pre-
yious and had continued in the di-
rection OF the Nevada state line.
O'Donald returned 10 Modesto the
following day and reported to the
citizens of that place who raised a
subscription and sent him 10 this
city that he might assist in the cap
ture of the colored man if he VEN
tured across the state line.
O'Donald stopped off at Colfax,
Auburn and Truckee where he left
descriptions of the negro. He ar
rived in Reno last Thursday evening.
He has notified the officials of the
surrounding towns and good descrip-
tions of the fugitive have been furn-
ished.

SLATE NEWS ITEMS
SEVERAL CANDIDATES
FOR POSTOFF|CE JOB

As Postmaster Hofer's term of
Office expires at the end of the fiscal
year and there are a lot of Republi-
cans who believe they can hold down
the job, there is a scramble for the
position. While it is not a certain
ty that any change will be made in
the postmastership, yet the boys are
training their sights for a shot at the
plum. Hy Doane is circulating a
petition which is being literally sign
ed to the effect that should there be
a change in the Office he would be
the signer's choice. 1t is under
stood that there are several others
after the persimmon in a quieter
way. The matter will rest with
Congressman Roberts. He has the
naming of all the postmasters except
that of Reno which is in the hands of
Senator Nixon.
In the meantime the Democrats
are watching the scramble among the
followers of the other side of the
question. 1t is expected that Post
master Hofer will make a strenuous
fight to hold down the position as he
stands very high with the depart
ment, being one of the first TO be
instructed in Postal Banking and
ranks as quite an authority in that
ine.-carson Appeal.

ASSERT THAT DEATH
WAS NOT SUICIDAL

Relatives in San Francisco of DR..
Pietro De Lucls who committed sui
eide in Reno over a year ago. when
he threw himself in front of a switch
engine near the depot and was
ground to death, have filed suit in
the federal court at San Francisco
against the Southern Pacific rail-
road asking for 500, 900 damages
on account of the death. 1t is
claimed that DR.. De Lueis met his
death through an accident and the
complaint states that the accident
was due to the carelessness of the
railroad employees.
DR.. DE Lueis met his death on the
afternoon of November II, 1910. He
was observed acting in a queer man
ner near the local depot and a num-
Der of witnesses observed him as he
dashed forward and threw himself in
front Of an approaching switch en-
CINE. When extracted from be-
meath the engine about a minute
later It was observed that the ply
stefan was fatally injured and he
breathed his last several minutes
afterwards.
Earlier that day De Lucis Jumped
in front of a motor car on CONNER
cial Row in front of Mccullough's
store, but escaped injury as the en-
gineer stopped the car before 1t
struck the physician. The police
we're notified and De Lueis promised
the officers he would be more care
full. 1t was shortly after this that
De Lnucis came to his death.
De Lusis resided at 32S3 Mission
street. San Francisco, and had only
been In Reno a day or two up to the
time of his suicide.
George Green. special agent Of the
Southern Pacific railroad company,
OF the Sacramento division. arrived
in Reno recently. having been
detailed on the case. and spent the
day there securing the names of
witnesses who were present when De
Lucis came to his death. During
his quest Mr.. Green secured the file
of the newspapers Of the date in
question wherein the details of the
suicide are clearly given.
Mr.. Green also secured a copy of
the verdict rendered by a coroner's
inquest that investigated the death,
wheln IL was stated tina De Lucis
came to his death by suicidal intent.

tomorrow Will say:
Trade and industry are quiet, disap
poDting)y so In most sections. 1t is TO
be noted thet the long decline in most
farm products is credited at a few points
with being retarding influence upon

On the other hand, good weather and
price revislons are helping the cotton
goods trade. In the leading industries
there is not much new, Iron and steel
fail TO show growth in demand.
Woolen goods and textiles generally
feel the effects OF the threatened revision
OF the tariff. while farm products reflect

improved outlook for winter wheat.
