DEATH OF TWO PARTIES
FIGURES IN COURT SUIT
Answer Filed in Proceedings to An
null Sale of Rochester Apart
ment House.

Death, the grim reaper. figures on hot
sides of the suit brought by Louis NJ.
Mass and others against Harry Ward
man and others to rescind the sale or
the Rochester apartments. The plaintiffs
claim that the refusal of certain de-
PENDANTS to renew the loan of $4,000 on
the property caused their mothers death
| of broken heart. The SWartzell, Rheem
4 Hensey Company, one of the defend
ants. in an answer filed late Yesterday
afternoon claims that the death of Clar-
ence r. Rheem. vice president of the
corporation. prevents a fuller answer to
certain allegations of the bill.
Denial of Charges.
The answer of the corporation denies
practically all the charges preferred
against it. says the plaintiffs are not en-
titled to a discovery, and requests dis
| missal of the bill. Attorney ]. j. OAR
lington represents the corporation.
The defendant corporation declares it
has no knowledge of the truth or falsity
of the Mass bill as to the value of the
property of Amelie Mass in Hanover
county, Va. nor its relation to the al
legged transaction with Wardman or of
the transfer of the farm property.
1t must have been Clarence b. Rheem
then vice president and treasurer of the
corporation. it is stated, with whom Mrs.
Mass consulted, il with any one, as he
had charge of such business, as to the
renewal of the first deed of trust. AS
he died April last. the answer says, the
firm is unable to admit or deny that such
a conversation took place.
Letter in Evidence.
1t is admitted that February 13, 1912,
a letter was written by Clarence b.
Rheem to Herbert Mass informing him
that it was not likely he would be able
TO arrange the matter on the basis sug-
gested by you, when the loan shall ma
ture.'' The letter was a reply, it is
stated, to an inquiry from Mass as to
whether the NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Incum-
brance on the Rochester apartment house
could be renewed for three years.
The answer disclaimS all knowledge Of
the alleged negotiations of Herbert Mass
with Wardnlan. 1t ayers that SEPTEMBER
), 1872, the fifty-thousand-dollar incGm-
brance was overdue with interest, and
the taxes on the property in arrears, sub
ject to a monthly penalty OF l per cent
and after due advertising, the answer
says the property was sold by the trus-
tees in accordance with the deed of trust
securing the Indebtedness. to Wardman
and Thomas p. Bones for $4,000, which,
it is declared, was Sl,21O.91 less than the
aggregate Indebtedness, including taxes

WOMAN THE CARE TAKER.

Jane tombstone Christie, in THE
Advance of Woman" pictures the
place of woman in society from the
beginning. Here are the closing
words of this earnest little volume:
THE care of the race is woman's
business; but the care does not con
sist. as man says it does, only in
bringing them into the world. nurs-
ing and clothing them till they are
able to do 1t themselves. The care
of the race begins with birth and
ends only with the grave; nay. it be
gins with selection, for a debauehed.
diseased man is not fit TO be
husband and father, but is
the cause of a large proportion of
sickness and of early deaths.
THE human male is the only one
who selects his mate, and he has
amply testified TO his incapacity to
do 1t; for IL is a well-recognized fact
that under his selection the race has
deteriorated. The care of the race
means the food, the clothes, the
schools, the social system. the politi-
cal system, the laws. The care Of
the race is the whole of life. just as
to love God and thy neighbor as thy
self is the whole of law. 1t is the
multiplication of words that obscures
issues and blinds the eyes. Silence
is golden Less talk and more
thinking would prevent mistakes and
retribution.
THE spirit that is behind the
movement is the uplifting of hui
manity, the wiping out of jails and
institutions for punishment and cor
rection. In order that mothers
hearts may cease to weep tears of
blood. that prostitution (which is
largely the offspring of a double
moral code and of economic condi-
tions) may cease, that justice and
right may prevail, that happiness
may be increased, that Thy will be
done on earth as it is in Heaven
God eve made His earth to be
a vale of tears with all its potential
ties for enjoyment. it's hills and
mountains and cloud capped towers,

INCREASE IN THE
OUTPUT OF ORE
GOOD SHOWING MADE THROUGH
OUT NEVADA IN 1912, GOLD
COMMERCIAL VALUE.

The value of the mineral products
of Nevada for 1912 will probably
total about $4,000, 900, or a fair in
crease i've the production for 1911.
eral product of the state, although
its copper production was of nearly
equal value, says the Engineering and
Mining Journal.
The gold production was less than
in 1911, and with the exhaustion of
the rich ore bodies of the Goldfield
Consolidated, the gold output of the
state will probably lose its premier
position unless some new rich dis
%eoveries are made. More gold ore
was milled in 1912 than in 1911, but
the grade of the ore treated at Gold
field, and in the National and Seven
Troughs districts was lower. At the
National mine the mill was burned
in September and in July a cloud
burst at Seven Troughs interfered
with mining work. In Manhattan,
Round Mountain and Fairview the
production of the gold mines in
creased. The grade of Goldfield Con-
solidated ore fell from s25 per ton
in January to $13 per ton in Septem-
Der; the company passed a dividend
in December. The gold production of
the state was about $4,000. 600. The
Aurora, Rexal and Rochester districts
are about to become producers of
gold.
The production of silver inereas-
ed nearly 23 per cent, due to the in
creased production of silver at Tono-
pah and shipments OF lead ore from
Phoebe, in Lincoln county. There
was an increase in lead and zinc pro-
duction, the product coming chiefly
from Phoebe and Yellow Pine dis
tricts. The last district. which is in
Clark county. broke all records of
zine-ore production in Nevada, pro-
ducing nearly 1900. 900 pounds of
zinc. The chief producer was the
Yellow Pine mine, which operated the
only concentrating mill in the dis
trict. The lead production from the
district also increased. The adjust
ment of litigation at Phoebe favorab-
" affected that district, and the CON-
pletion of a railroad supr to the Bull
lionyille dump afforded a much
needed outlet for its ores.

Mining in White Pine County.

(G. l.. Sheldon. of Ely
The Nevada Consolidated, as a
whole, had a successful year in 1912,
although about a month was lost be-
cause of the strike in the autumn.
At the mine, both the Eureka and
Liberty pits were put in shape for
steady operation with the oyerburn-
en- stripped. so that a large produe-
ton can be made from either. The
ground between the two pits is get
ting narrow and in six months OF
perhaps less they should be connect
ed. II is understood that a contract
was made with the Butte a Ely COM
pany TO extract ore from its ground
on the south side of Liberty pit, il
now being stripped up to the Boston
d Ely line. This will give the Ne
yada Consolidated the desired width,
so that operations can be carried on
to greater depth in both pits. II is
said that there is 275 feet of COM
mercial ore below present lowest
level of Eureka pit. Recently a drill
hole was put down from the original
surface of nearly 900 feet, the deep
est hole drilled. But little drilling
was done to prove ore, as nearly 40
0O0. 600 had been blocked out.
At the concentrator the most i'm
portant improvement made was prob
ably the increase in the capacity of
the settling tanks. Formerly they
were so small that there was no time
for the slime to settle. Experiments
are being made to effect a greater
saving from slime. BY the substitu-
ton of California fuel oil for coal,
costs have been lowered and the cap
acity of the reverberatories material
ly increased,
The Veteran mine. the old Cumber-
land-Ely property, was put in shape
for a production of about 200 tons
day. The ground was in bad
shape, and with only one shaft ii re-
auired a great deal of work to be
kept in working order. New ore was
opened to the south and west, ma
terially increasing the ore reserves.
The Giroux Consolidated Mining
Co, made its first important ship
ments of commercial ore. Up to the
time of the strike. October |, the
production for the previous five
months had been approximately l.
600 tons per day, This ore came
from the Morris and Bunker Hill
shafts. Under the contract with the
Nevada Consolidated it was shipped
TO the Steptoe smelter. at McGill.
According to the quarterly statement
filed with the county assessor, there

was scarcely any profit made on this
ore. After the strike efforts were
concentrated on completing the sur
face ore bins and the underground
ore pocket, and widening the main
drifts for hauling the ore cars by
mules. AT the close of 1912 ship
ments were about 500 tons per day.
1t is expected the maximum of 1900
tons per day, as contracted for with
the Nevada Consolidated, will soon be
reached.
The Butte & Ely, which is between
the Giroux and the Nevada CONSOLE
dated. and the control of which is
held by the Giroux, is believed to be
a valuable piece of ground. During
1912 n and part of the time two
drills were in operation prospecting
the ground, with good results. The
Nevada Consolidated also did some
drilling, by contract, on the Boston
& Ely ground, near the Liberty pit.
The Boston & Ely, during the year,
tried to explore its ground from the
1200-foot level with a diamond drill,
but the formation was not favorable
for drilling work, which was aban-
doned. Later, in drifting from the
~1200-foot level, prosecuting the
country in search for known surface
veins, a previously unknown vein was
cut that carries some ore, but pro-
duces much water.
The Coppermines Co., Gum
Thompson property, the ground if
which is close to the Star Pointer of
the Nevada Consolidated, shipped,
previous to the strike. several car
loads of ore assaying 5 per cent or 6
per cent copper. After the strike OPP
erations we're resumed. but no ship
ments were made. The Ely Central
company, which has been in the lime
light for a number of years has, been
