GOLDFIELD MAN
IS CHARGED WITH
BULLION THEFT
ACCUSED or STEALING GOLD
sLUes FROM MILL OF CON-
soLloATED COMPANY

Gold bullion valued at $50, in the
form of slugs. alleged to have been
stolen from the Stag in the refinery
OF the Consolidated Mines company,
was found in the possession of Mark
Mccormick when he was arrested
yesterday afternoon by Detective
Reimer and Deputy Sheriff Bogard
Officials of the Consolidated com
pany declare that they have a com
plete chain of evidence showing that
number of employees have been in
yolved In a conspiracy 10 steal gold
bullion from the refinery Other ar
rests are predicted shortly and the
matters is to be thoroughly sifted and
all the men implicated will be prose
cuted vigorously. says the Goldfield
Tribune.
Upon the arrest of Mccormick, at
the instigation of the company's
agents. Assistant District Attorney J..
f. Kunz refused to issue a warrant
for the retention of the accused man,
on the ground that it could not be
shown that the bullion in the latter's
possession was taken from the Con
solidated company's property. He
was thereupon released but the bull
lion was retained by Detective Rel
mer and it is said that IT will be an
easy matter to prove its identity as
having come from the Consolidated
refinery.
The man in whose possession the
bullion was found yesterday is a
brother Of Jack Mccormick, against
whom the grand jury recently re
fused to return an indictment on a
charge of stealing bullion from the
Consolidated. on the ground that suf
ficient evidence to hold him for trial
was lacking The Mccormick broth
ers have been in the employ OF the
Consolidated company for some time
past.
Officials of the company have been
aware for some time past that small
quantities of bullion We're being
stolen, despite the safeguards that
have been provided. and agents OF
the company have been occupied in
tracing the stolen gold, with the re
suit that some of il has been traced
to the plant of the Selby Smelling
company where it was marketed
after having passed through other
hands. The evidence now in posses
sion of the company is said to be SC
convincing as to insure the conviction
of the men against whom charges o.
theft will be brought.
