.SACKING OF ORE
Continues At
lone PROPERTY

Late news from the Murphy-Jar-
Wis workings at lone, on the prop
erty they recently bonded from
Steel & Brunton, is to the effect
that rich ore is still being taken
from the winze started from the
drift on the hanging wall of the
ledge. The winze has now passed
the forty-foot mark and shows a
two-foot streak of shipping value.
About fifteen tons Of ore have al
ready been extracted and sacked
from the development thus far
done, and It is believed that the
ore will run not less than $1OC
per ton, and perhaps little bet
ter than that.
Tom Murphy is now in GoldhelC
and is said to be negotiating for
lease of the whole or part of th'
Berlin mill, located about six mile
from the lone property, and II HI

received By Helen Taylor in an
uptown apartment Saturday night
exploded and caused her death al
most Instantly The mystery with
which the affair was clouded baffled
the police. The woman, who was
~ years old, was called to the ves-
tibule of the apartment by a man
who presented her with a good-sized
package and then hurried away.
She carried the package to her
apartment, and as she paced 1t on
A table it exploded with a loud
report. DR.. Charles L. Perkins,
who was passing the house at the
time, ran into aid Mrs. Taylor, but
she died in a few minutes. The
physicians said that in his opinion
the package was an internal ma
chine. II contained a number OF
dry cell batteries, one of which
was driven through the woman s
breast near the heart.
After several hours of secret in
yestigation, the detectives arrested
Charles NJ. Dickinson, who said he
was an employe of a motor COM
pany and held him on technical
charge of homicide. Ada Lamarre
a show girl, 25 years old, who lived
in the house. but was out at the
time the fatality occurred. was held
as material witness. Dickinson
was said TO have been in the room
when the woman met her death.

BOOSTER SPIRIT
STILL EXTANT
IN SISTER TOWN

That the old booster spirit of
Goldfield is not dead was thorough
ly demonstrated the other night
when big number OF the leading
spirits of the town got together
and organized what will be known
as the Commercial Association of
Goldfield. Committees were appoint
ed and already their advertising
matter depicting the mining re-
sources of Goldf1eld and Esmeralda
county in general is finding its
way into the press. Even the
service of the staid safe and sane
Tribune has been brought into play.
Now that Goldfeld has taken the
initiative in this matter of boosting
Southern Nevada, why cannot Tono-
pah and Nye county follows? With
out doubt Nye county is the rich
est in the state from a mineral
point of view, and the world could
be made to know If the proper
means we're taken to present it
And no better means than Com

the Cook and First National banks.
In the Cook check book nine
checks had evidently been torn out,
but the stubs showed no entries
The First National check book
showed three checks missing, and
while the stubs show nothing, two
of the checks have been accounted
for. The deposit books were made
in the names of Mr.. and Mrs d. M.
Black. To the sheriff's authorities
the young couple would make no
admissions, other than that they
were married and that the ceremony
had been performed against the
wishes of their parents. who, they
stated. were well-to-do and respect
able people. The only articles
found among their possessions
which could possibly give a line as
to their previous history are two
face towels, one marked Montana
Hotel" and the. other Mansion
Hotel" Their preliminary examin-
alton was called before Justice At.
kinson this afternoon, but owing tc
the absence Of witnesses from Gold
field, the case was put over til
tomorrow afternoon.

BUSINESS IN ENGLAND
COMING TO STANDSTILI
lrOnWOrkS Close Docks De-
Serted no Vessels Arrive
Traffic Slows Down

LONDON, March 2.-Great ports of the
United Kingdom, particularly those in
Wales and the centers of the iron and
steel industries, have naturally been the
first to feel effects from the strike of
over 100000 coal miners IN England,
Scotland and Wales.
Many iron works in various districts
were closed today and at Swansea and
elsewhere business at the docks has come
practically to a standstill. No vessels
are arriving. The docks and workmen
employed in the local industries have
been thrown out of work. Great crowds
of these men have gathered in the streets.
Thus far there have been no disturb
ances anywhere.
In south Wales, however, mine owners
are preparing for emergencies. They have
had walls built around the mines and
have laid in great stores of provisions
in anticipation of a long siege.
The railroad and street car services in
many cities have been still further cur
tailed today.
Only two small non-union mines in the
entire country are still at work. one
of these is in north Wales and the 9TH
er near Berwick, on the scottish Doruer'
LOOMS ARE SILENT.
Tin plate works of Wales are closing
down rapidly owing to lack OF coal
Six hundred mills will be idle within
a few days and 10000 men who are EN-
ployed there will be thrown out OF
work
FOOD GOING UP.
John williams, labor member of par
lament for the Cover division OF
Glamorganshire, South Wales, and gen.
eral secretary cf the Amalgamated So
ciety Of South Wales Colliery Workers
told the Welsh miners at meeting to-
day that he expects a settlement OF
the strike to be reached by Thursday
next on lines satisfactory to both the
men and the employers.
The prices of food are rising rapidly
everywhere
