MEANS MUCH TO ALL
ORE TREATING PLANTS
Suit Against Tonopah Mining
Company May Affect Every
Cyanide Plant in Country

Arthur X. ParsoD, metallurgical ex-
pert for the Tonopah Mining Company.
came to Salt Lake yesterday from Tono-
pah to meet Attorney White of Phila.
delphia, general counsel for the COM
pany, relative to the suit started against
the company by Alden II. Brown. who
charges that the company is infringing
upon his patent rights. 1t is declared
that Brown has secured a patent upon
the process of stamping ore in a cyanide
solution and subsequently teaching the
ore by cyanide.
Mr.. Parsons returned ten days ago
from Philadelphia where he was IN
gagged for six weeks in giving testimony
in the case which is being tried at that
place. Within the next. few weeks a
commission will visit the West in quest
Of testimony in the case.
1t is declared that if the case sticks,
all the mills of the country will be COM
PEELED to pay tribute to Brown.
81 have used the process in the cree
ton OF three mills" said a prominent
engineer this morning. "The process
for 12 years past has not been patented
that | know Of and it is a general prac.
tice at the mills. II Brown succeeds in
making this stick, he can compel every
mill, almost, in the West to pay him.

spent thousands of dollars in the case, u
he continued. "Few engineers appre-
ciate the value Of the case or they would
be assisting. '-Deseret News.

NYE COUNTY POTASH FIELDS
Large Body of Land Filed On Carrying
Seven Per Cent Potash


Nevada will without doubt come to
the front again with a new industry. 1t
is the mining of potash.
In stopping at Blue Eagle, which is
only eight miles from the find, the
writer learned that Joe Saborn. Martin
Horton, Ralph Irwin. Eugene Locke
aud others have together taken up a
half section of the land, which assays
seven per cent of potash on the surface.
A party of So Goldfeld and Tonopah
men and others have taken up claims.
and each has contributed $50 toward a
$1,000 drill, which will at ono be put on
the ground to discover whether the per.
centage increases by depth. Another
company is nov forming. Already 100
claims have been taken up. The ground
is only two miles from the Locke ranch,
where plenty of water can be obtained
to flush and purify the mineral.
The worlds supply Of potash has
heretofore been obtained from Ger
many, and this country is restricting
the export. As potash is necessary in
making smokeless powder, and is also
extensively used as a fertilizer, the de-
mand for it is great aud constant, and
an appropriation of 10000 was made
by Congress to make research in Ne
vada and find out il bodies Of this min
eral could not be found here. The re-
suits in Railroad Valley are very en-
couraging, and no doubt drilling will
disclose q large supply of water heavily
impregnated with potash.
