terms and those terms were 10 longer sl6O. 10000 but $500,
100000.
This is getting into the intimate relations of the trust deals
indeed. According to this Mr.. Carnegie is no peace man when 1T
comes to business. He not only understood what his opponents
we're obliged to have but understood well that he himself had the
goods, and that, unless they bought him out at his own terms, their
whole effort would be a failure. Accordingly, the combine, having
missed its big opportunity Of saving $780, OO,O 900 in making the
combine, had to sacrifice that sum in order to get the Carnegie
properties. All this speaks emphatically for Mr.. Carnegies nerve,
as we'll as for his foresight in gathering the plums and holding on
to them.
The successive testimonies delive red by different witnesses in
this case bring US nearer and nearer to the core of the whole mat
ter. In the meantime a need of admiration for Carnegie can not be
withheld. He was the true hero of the occasion; he was on sure
ground; he knew it. He knew that the combine must buy him or
fail altogether in its plans; and he knew, further, that when 1T
came to the final making up, if the combine did not buy him out at
the figure he himself set. the pudding would be his own for the
making AS Mr. Temple says, in case the combination had failed
to buy Carnegie out, "Andrew Carnegie would to-day dominate the
steel business of the country"
The investigating committee has adjourned until October Mr.
Carnegie and Mr. Morgan are scheduled to testify before it when
it reassembles. They are the men who can tell the whole story
and it is to be hoped that tie committee will succeed in getting
from them all that there is to know-Salt Lake Tribune.

FREE PRESS REPEATS STATEMENT
Many Fish Are Dying Near Beowawe for
Lack of Fish Ladder

Notwithstanding the denials of the
Game Warden of Eureka County. re.
ports continue to come that the fish law
is being fiagrantly violated about eight
miles east Of Beowawe, where there is
q big dam in the Humboldt river.
Last week we stated that hundreds of
fish were seen dead in q big hole below
this dam, and that the stencil from the
same was vile. We further reported
that there was no fish ladder in this
dam.
This information was brought to this
Office, also to the Game Warden Of EIko
County, by more than one person. We
published the reports as given us, and
later received q denial from the Game
Warden of Eureka County. who said
that the stencil was from a dead animal
about 20 steps from the dam.
Now comes q railroad man who says
he knows of his own knowledge that
there is no ladder in the dam and that
the fish are unable to get up the stream.
and Furthermore that dynamite was
used below the dam, and that this &C
counts for the many dead fish that were
seen. He vas on . side track 200 yards

NEVADA CONSOLIDATED REPORT
Slight Decrease in Production as Com.
pared With Previous Quarter

F
The Nevada Consolidated Copper
Company of Ely, Nevada. for the
quarter ended June 80. 1911. showed a
deficit after dividends of $1l3.
The above deficit was incurred after
payment of dividends amounting TO
S749. 389 and charging off 1886. 991 for
depreciation. Net earnings were $780,
266 and surplus after dividends, but be-
fore depreciationn. was $l36, SIS,
Production was 10. 677. 065 pounds
against Is. 1913, 743 pounds in preceding
quarter and 10, SOS. 500 in final quarter
of 1910.
No mention OF costs during three
months was contained in the quarterly
report. Ore treated averaged 1859 per
cent, the lowest grade yet milled. A
large tonnage of low-grade material too
good to waste as stripping, was treated
which brought down the average.
In view of the market price for cop.
per it was decided to write down figure
at which stocks were being carried !,
and $23,S26 was deducted from the
metal price reserve which formerly
stood at SAC, 1923. Stocks are now
carried at 1914 cents, which is less than
price now received. 1t was this adjust
ment which caused the deficit.

Goldfeld Tribune: The mineral advancement and prosperity
of Nevada is better illustrated by payment of dividends than the
distribution of highly colored literature according to the method
followed three years ago. Within the last two months two COM
panies have disbursed profits to stockholders who did not expect
any returns for some time. The first of these companies was as
ISOLATED with developments in the long neglected camp of Manhat-
tan, and the other was the Mexican on the Comstock lode. This is
the first time in the history of the Comstocks that Mexican had a
dollar to divide with stockholders. and the latter will naturally ia
clitate themselves on the denouement which is a fitting climax
to what appeared to be a forlorn hope some years ago.

How Carnegie Won

The testimony of ". G. Temple of Pittsburg before the senate
Committee that is investigating the Steel Trust, who was chairman
of the Steel Plate Association, and is also described as having been
commissioner of the Steel Plate Association formed in 1900, was oil
the liveiest sort. He not only testified that the combine contem-
plated monopolistic control, but he gave the exact percentages OF
the division Of business among the different concerns involved III
the combination.
Perhaps the most amusing part of his testimony, however, was
that which dealt with the negotiations with MI. Carnegie. 1t APP

and plain roads in 1874 hours and 81
minutes. an average Of 81 5 miles an
hour. This exceeded the car schedule.
which called for but 10 miles an hour.
In addition to establishing a record
running time, the Midland party made
a detailed log of the road from Denver
to San Francisco. The new route will
afford a third transcontinental highway
which will be open throughout its entire
length for the use of motorists on their
way to the Panama-Pacific exposition

It was a excellent discourse, pertinent to the pressure OF the
time, and if taken by itself would impress us with the advantage of
having doctors TO advise us in all matters of high concern. Unfortu-
nstely, on the same day the University Of New York conferred the
degree Of Doctor Of Letters on Robert Underwood Johnson, and the
now dignitary proceeded to pronounce an grafton upon American
o poets, giving foremost place to Emerson and ranking Longfcnow,
Bryant, Whittier, Lowell, Holmes and Thomas William Parsons next
IN their order.
Such estimates proceeding from the haunts Of culture cause a
p&o cast of thought to overcome any rosy hue OF resolution 30 accept
the teaching of Columbia that doctors know more than dena-
