HOSPITAL IS BADLY

Pneumonia Reapins Harvest
in Booming Camp Of the
Humboldt Range.

There always are certain phases to a
new district Is christened, and Roch-
ester is not immune from the disease.
The world hears much and often about
rich discoveries OF ore. deals for mining
claims and fortunes made by mere flip
of the wrist but the other side is kept
discreetly In the background. One Nevada
paper not far from the Rochester camp
fills much OF It's first page with material
regarding property conditions. relegating
to the back page the fact that the county
hospital is overflowirg with pneumonia
patients from the camp. The superin-
tendent of the hospital reports his estab-
lIshment completely filled, There are
more cases reported In Rochester than
the hospital contains.
Rochester came into notice in the heart
of the winter, and hundreds crowded into
the camp during the coolest season OF
the year unprepared to take proper psys-
ical care OF themselves, arriving to find
the camp a few weeks old and without
the comforts and accommodations so es-
sential to the hundreds crowdlng In. Con-
siderable suffering has resulted. over
fifty cases OF pneumonia now exist and
each phase of the camps growth Is duly
emphasized In the press of the camp and

Just as a mining camp must be bap-
tized with fire. frequently on more than

wealth overlooking even the most funda-

Guggenheirns Control.

A great deal Of interest has been
aroused In the Coeur d'Alenes by the
suit. In which II is also alleged that the
GugGenheims control the Federal COM
pany, contention sustained by a glance
over the list OF the heaviest holders Of
common stock. The Guggenheims, through
the American Shelters Securities COM
pany. control the Federal, The Securi-
ties company owns 29,952 common shares,
which, together with holdings by others
allied with the Guggenheim interests,
holdings to 2O.S76 shares, or a clear ma
jorlty OF the Federars so, 900 common
shares outstanding. The preferred has
no voting power. The contract under
which the Federal sells its ore to the
American Smelling & Refining company
allows the Federal 80 per cent OF the con-
tents OF the latter's lead ores. at 90 per
cent of the New York price, when lead
sells at $40 a hundred pounds or less
When the price of lead IS higher, the
production and smelling companies split
the difference between S4.10 and the mar
ket price. The contract for silver calls
for 95 per cent, based upon Handy G
Harman's quotations. That for gold pro-
yides for 95 per cent Of 500 an ounce
provided the ore contains at least 90
ounce per ton. It Is further provided
that all zinc in excess OF 10 per cent
for each unit or fraction thereof. The
contract is most binding upon the Fed
eral company. as It. can dispose OF none
OF It's property without consent OF the
smelling company. An So treatment
charge is part OF the contract, while
freight on ordinary ores approximates
S71T a ton.

metal extraction from ores is recorded
In a report which has just been certified
under oath before q notary public by IL
=. Jennings. Andrew Baggs and Frank
Jenson, and by them transmitted TO the
advisory board of the Metal Extraction
company of this city. This report gives
the result OF n demonstration test recent
ly made under tho process originated by
Sclden J. Clawson, and which is now
owned by the Metal Extraction company,
The test was made at the company'5
plant, S2 Richards street. under the per
sonal supervision of Z. p. Jennings.
geologist and chemist, while the plant
was operated by Andrew Baggs OF the
University of Utah and Frank Jenson
The ore selected for the run was an
extremely silclous one. particularly re-
fractory, carrying only 1.26 per cent cop
per and crushed to about twenty mesh
The plant consisted Of muftled furnace
blast fan. fume arrester 2-horsepower
electric motor, pipes, connections ana
drip water attachment Certified reports
from the Union Assay company gave the
results of the extraction test as follows:
"The amount of extraction OF copper from
the ore was % per cent, the amount OF
catch was 81 per cent, and OF the entire
metal contents OF the ore there was actu-
ally recovered 80 per cent"
Experts who have had these facts and
figures brought to their attention say that
the results achieved are without prece-
dent. They foresee In the process in
vented by Mr. Clawson an early eXpan-
sion OF the mining industry in Utah and
elsewhere by reason Of the fact that the
new extraction method Will bring into
actual productlveness an enormous acre
age OF low grade ground that is now
lying in idleness. Not even extreme iso-
lation from railroad transportation facili-
ties will prove a bar to production under
this new process, declare mining men
and netallursists Of experience.

struction Of plants upon offers submitted

BILE properties which are far removed

been made upon ores from these proper
ties, with surprising results in some in
stances.

Suit Being Watched.

The suit Is regarded by many profess
sional mining men as the first blow in
what IS 10 be a decisive battle with the
smelter trust. The smelters terms are
contra sted by miners with those days be-
fore the Guggenheims were In the field.
At that time the smelterman competed
for the production OF the mines so keen
ly that smelters lost money occasionally.
Among interested spectators of the suit
are the stockholders OF the Stewart Min
Ing company, whose contract with the
American Smelling & Refining company
is said to be Identical with that of the
Federal. except that where the Federal
has a twenty-ycar contract the Stewart
contract made In 1911 is for ive years.
II Is matter OF speculation whether the
smelling company will let the suit come
TO trial. 1t Is said that publicity re-
sulting from such trial might bring
about congressional action which would
be detrimental to the present smelling
system.
Since other ore treating forms have en-
tered ths Occur d'Alenes in compe etitou
with the Guggenhein interests. the
smelling rates have been reduced ap-
proXimately to s6 a ton. which should
mean an increase IN the annual profits
,of the mining compa MES opera ting in the
district of not less than 2,250. 600 pro-
vided the Federal Mining company. the

clause providing for a reduction To meet

Special To The Tribune.

Special TO The Tribune.
WALLACE, Ida, Feb. S.-The Ameri-
can Smelling & Refining company lis
made defendant in suit brought by Sid
ney Norman, formerly of Spokane, in
which plaintiff alleges unfair treatment
to the minority stockholders OF the Fed
eral Mining & Smelling company. II is
contended by the plaintiff. that IF the
Federal company enjoyed the same terms
the American Smelling & Refining com
pany allows to the Federal's competitors.
that on It's 1912 production Of 1878 tons
OF orc, averaging 42.9 per cent lead and
EOS ounces silver per ton, IL would have
earned S622, loo more than what the actual
net earnings were. Also. that because
Of its present contract. It has earned
s271 900 less In the last four months
than IL Its ore was settled for at the
rates received by its competitors,
In a nutshell, II Is alleged that il the
Federal company's profits were not eaten
up by its alleged unfortunate smelling
contracts. II would not only be paying
it's preferred dividend in full, but be-
tween 6 and z per cent on the common
stock: with a substantial surplus in ad-
dition, instead Of 6 per cent OF a curlu
lative per cent preferred dividend and
nothing on the common since 1909. when
the common made its last dividend dis
trtbuton Of Ii per cent.

Important to Utah.

Utah is Vitally concerned with the zinc
tariff well as lead. During the past
few months there have been a score or
more properties within the state lifted
from the assessment list into a self-sus-
tanning position, and In two instances
into the dividend column. by virtue Of the
nigh arket price of spelter. Large ton
pagcs OF zinc ores long a drug upon the
market have become available, putting
ready cash into treasures long empty. II
is a question whether the removal of the
zinc tariff will encourage such an inn
portation OF the metal as TO break the
market price. thereby giving foreign pro-
ducers the profits that now are coming
into thc treasures OF American mine
owners.
The metal tariff question is of such far
reaching Importance that II is UP to the
western ore producer TO be prepared for
the congressional campaign Of 1919.
