Mining FIGHT RE-
suit OF LITIGATION

On Sunday afternoon J. l.. Work
man, president OF the Charleston Hill
National Mines syndicate, supported
by number of armed guards, at
tempted to take forcible possession of
the Mammoth National mine at Ma
tional on the ground that the Nam
moth National Mines company, which
is working the mine under lease, had
violated the terms of the lease and
thereby forfeited the same.
Upon the refusal of Superintendent
Baxter to give up the property Work
man stationed armed men at the en-
frances to the tunnels, imprisoning
Baxter and several men who were with
him at the time in the mine. No one
was allowed to enter or leave the mine.
Superintendent Baxter and his men
had with them only the supply of food
which they had taken with them when
the men went on shift, and they held
out against the demands of Workman
until late yesterday afternoon, when
hunger drove them forth Workman
had in the meantime caused barricades
to be erected across the mouths of the
tunnels With the surrender of Bax-
ter Workman had full possession of the
entire mine.
However, after getting square
meal, Superintendent Baxter determin-
ed to wrest possession from Workman,
if possible, and with the consent of the
officials of the National Mines com
pany, whose property Immediately ad-
joins that of the Mammoth, got into
the interior of the Mammoth mine by
entering through the tunnels on the
~@. g N.x. Il IL
man, believing himself secure had
failed to station men in the iterior
of the mine, and when Baxter and his
men returned they had no trouble in
retaking possession. They immediate
ly set to work to build barrcades along
the tunnels and today are safely en-
trenched on the inside, while Workman
holds the fort on the outside. Work
mans attorneys spent yesterday in
National, advising him, and left this
morning in the Haviland & Hoskins
car for Reno. Baxter's attorneys were
summoned and arrived this afternoon
at National.
The trouble with Workman has aris-
en- out of litigation which is pending
between the National Mines company
and the Mammoth National over the
apex rights and in which proceeding
recently court order was secured by
the National Mines company under the
terms of which the working of the
mine was practically under the super
vision of the Z. s. court. The Nation
al Mines company is therefore a most
interested spectator of the present de-
velopment, as its injunction order was
obtained against the Mammoth Ma
tional Mine company and not against
Workman or the latter's company. If
therefore, Workman should succeed in
his attempt to get possession of the
mine, the National Mines company
would have to institute new proceed
ings to protect itself.

thern lines and that E. C. Manson has
been practically decided upon as the
man for the position.

.COSTOF WARSH|PS

Country Must Pay Bigger Prices
For Future Additions
to Navy.

Washington October THE price Of
future warshins of the American navy. IT
is said. may be affected seriously By the
measures taken by the Post-officc Depart
ment to stimulate tho development of the
American merchant marine by giving pre-
fercntial contracts for carrying malls
through the Panama Canal to vessels of
American construction. At least ono OF the
principal Atlantic shipbu!lding concerns Is
said to have assumed contracts for the con-
struction of no much tonnage for the New
York Panama-san Francisco steamship lines
that 1t is indsposed to bid upon the naval
contracts.
Tho severe application OF the cight-hour
law to naval construction in private ship
yards has already greatly embarrassed the
Navy Department In placing contracts. and
the withdrawal from competitive bidding
OF any one or tho few large ehipbui!ding
concerns certainly would greatly enhance
the price demanded for government vessels.
1t appears that tho proposals for con
strnctins the two uper-Dreadnouehts. Ne
