RAILROAD REQUIREMENTS.
Record Breaking Business Expected
When Rate Question is Settled.

A leading western railroad presi-
dent takes the view that the steel and
equipment consumption of the rail
roads during the past three years has
been far below normal requirements,
and that when the situation
clears up, and the railroad men
get out of the fog the mills and
factories catering to railroads needs
will be running overtime TO meet the
demand.
He says: Take freight cars alone.
The railroads ought to buy 200, 900
airs a year at least to meet require
ments and handle increased business.
l am not sure that 100000 would
not be a safe figure. Actual purchases
since 1907 have averaged about 14O,-
900 a year or less than so per cent
of requirements. What holds true
of freight cars holds true of engines
and rails in a similar degree. That
is why | look for a record breaking
buying movement of rails and equip
ment II the interstate commerce conn
mission gives us any encouragement
in the way of freight increases.
Business Is slowing down some,
but we have had a record tonnage this
season. If court decisions are favor
able, ] look for new evidence of a
business resumption"

writes that he had a great sea voyage
for five weeks during which time he
took on much fat.
"All the Saloons he writes, have
barmaids; but 1t is a tough old coun-
try at that. We are located at Bra
den, 40 miles from Rancagua, and
they have the most wonderful rail-
road in the world here. There is 200
feet of 1t that is a straight track.
1t takes IL hours to run 40 miles.

CONSOLIDATED
HAS FINE SHOWING
SECOND STRIKE ENCOUNTERED
NEAR THE 800 LEVEL THAT
MAKES EVERYBODY INCLUD-
ING STOCKHOLDERS HAPPY.

Ely Consolidated Copper company
at Ruth has been putting up some
great. showings for the property in
the lack shaft during the past few
weeks. In a recent issue of this
paper attention was drawn to the fact
that they had passed through be-
tween five and six feet of good ore
near the 500-foot level of the shaft.
The returns from the ore were not
known at the time, but it has since
developed that the whole bunch of
ore averages better than 81 per cent
copper, the remainder of the ore in
the shaft going better than three per
cent.
Now at a depth of $40 feet, reports
come from the mine that they have
encountered a second bunch of ore
which has all the indications of be-
Ing as rich as the first lot that was
struck above the 500. This is a
most excellent showing for the Ely
Consolidated; and in addition to the
new finds they have yet to reach the
ore which was opened up at the 400
in the contact between the porphyry
and the limestone for which they
must crosscut at the 500 level. When
President Levy was here a week ago
he expressed himself as well satisfied
with the conditions in the mine, but
he then had no knowledge of the
latest discovery.
At the 40-foot level in the
lack the ore which was encountered
went as high as 40 per cent in copper
and the general average was in the
neighborhood of Is per cent. An
ore body of this description is good
enough for any mine. but six feet of
ore going better than 81 per zen is
something which must be considered
even in this district. And this Is not
all the story for they get returns from
the precious metals averaging as
high as $3.50. Ely Consolidated
looks pretty good at the present
writing and there is more good news
promised for it. And the showing re-
fleets much credit on the district.
The lack is located near the Ruth
workings of the Nevada Consolidated
and adjoins the West Dip and Tiptop
claims of Ely Central.

RAILROAD FROM
IDAHO To COBRE
PROPOSED CONSTRUCTION Oh
NEW ROAD CAUSES RUSH TO
CONTACT AND OTHER POINTS
ALONG ROUTE.

Following official information that
the railroad which has beer surveyed
from Twin Falls. Ida, to Cobre, New,
passing through Contact, the new
copper camp, is TO be built next sum
mer, a general rush has started at
Contact according to recent adyices.
A. II. White of Salt Lake, says a
large number of new men have arriv-
ed In the camp during the last week
and they are locating the district for
miles around the townsite of Con-
tact. 1t is said additional stage
facilities have been required to ac-
commodate the incoming mining
men. The camp, Mr.. White says,
has assumed a lively aspect, work be-
ing under way on a large number of
the properties, and Indications are
that the development will continue,
Besides the newcomers there are a
large number of the older owner of
property who are at work on claims.
The proposed line is to run from
the branch of the Oregon Short Line
to Twin Falls and Bull, Ida. The
branch will start at Twin Falls and
run almost directly south through
Contact to the Southern Pacific at
Cobre. also the junction point of the
Nevada Northern.
The Contact district is located on
a large contact of copper in horse
shoe shape, and the copper is of good
variety. Assays show the values to
be high. IL has not been found prof.
table under present conditions to
transportport ore overland to the
railroad although some ore has beer
taken out in that ann
With a railroad into the camp IL is
believed IL will become one of the
big copper camps in Nevada. This is
the statement of experts who have
made reports on the district.
II is understood that the Twin
Falls people are the most ardent
boosters for the new road. and under
the terms of the agreement by which
the line is TO be extended It is under
stood the Twin Falls people r going
to put considerable money.
Mr.. White, has been in Contact
since the middle of November. at
tending to the development work on
the Contact Copper company property
and to several other claims he owns
in tho district.

PEN|TENT|ARY JOB
NOT TO HIS LIKING
NEWLY APPOINTED LIEUTENANT
OF THE GUARD DISLIkES
DUTIES OF POSITION AND
TURNS IN HIS RESIGNATION.

A special from Carson City early
in the week contained the informa-
tion that Warden Ray Bakers first
appointee has thrown up his job.
William f. Evans of Tonopah, presi-
dent of Miners Union No. 121 OF
Tonopah, who was given the position
of lieutenant of the guard at the
state p~enitentiary. has decided that
he doesn't want ii after all. He has
no desire to do prison work and has
so stated TO the warden and rendered
his resignation.
The position is considered one OF
the best in the ~penitentiary. but 1t
involves work inside the walls and
this is distasteful TO Evans. He said
he didn't want any position at the
prison and wouldn't even accept the
captainey of the guard.
When Evans was offered the posi-
ton by Baker Immediately after the
warden received the appointment he
wired back from Tonopah that he
would accept and started for Carson
City right away. This he did. He
arrived at the prison. but upon look
ing over the situation and viewing
the ~penitentiary and the work which
he had to perform, he decided that
he would not relish IL, so he turned
In his resignation and will return to
Tonopah. Who is slated for the po-
sition has not been given out yet, al
though Warden Baker has received
a number of applications for the va
cant job.

GEORGETOWN READY
FOR LEHIGH ELEVEN
Thanksgiving Game Sure to
Be a Hard Battle.

Georgetown is ready for the game with
Lehgh Thanksgiving Day on the Hill
top.
This was stated last night at the Hill
top. and from the practice yesterday on
the muddy field the boys are in the best
OF shape. The same team which faced
Virginia will start the battle Tomorrow
afternoon.
Billy Sitterding will be in tie game, al
though his ankle will not be in the best
of shape. Costello is in good condition,
as is Tug Fury, the dashing half back.
Dave White will again start the game in
full back and from the showing of the
plunginE back in the Virginia game he
should plow through the heavy Lehigh
team in great shape.
The Lehigh team will he much heavier
than the Blue and Gray. in the back field
especially, and while this will hold the
Georgetown backs a trifle, the speed of
Costello and Fury on sweeping end runs
is counted upon to bring the Hilltoppers
out on the long end Of the score.
The field is in poor shape at present,
but to-day a big force Of men will start
early, and with the steam roller that
the District Commissioners will donate
to the Georgetown management in token
of the use Of the field for the high
school games, the gridiron should be in
the best of condition when the game
starts Tomorrow
