Jackson, Miss, Oct. 17.-The re-
ceipt In Jackson, by persons whose
names are withheld for the present. of
certain letters and documents that
seem to be in the nature of buttress
to the charges made by The Pitchfork,
of Dallas, Tex, that reports and ru-
mors that Gov. Brewer had taken
trip to Europe with a woman in the
summer of 1912, created new sensa-
tion, following that of the publication
of The Pitchfork article.
While information sent here is now
treated as strictly confidential, it is
known that a letter written by one
of the men whose names were men,
toned by the author of the article In
The Pitchfork, is in the hands of a
citizen of Jackson. How he secured
1t is not known. At any rate the text
of the letter shows that the individual
in question expected sensational
story about the governor. In fact he
wanted to know when the STORY"
would appear. and was anxious to buy
extra copies.

T. p. Barr Makes Statement.
T. P. Barr, chief of police of Jack
son, one of the persons included in
the write-up in the Dallas (Tex)
Pitchfork, a few days ago, has pub
lished a statement in the Jackson
Daily News in which he defends him
self against the aspersions of the rep
resentative of the Texas paper by de-
nouncing him. He tells of having met
Mr.. Pickard at his Office and of having
treated him as he would any other
man he considered a gentleman, but
protests that he did not enter into any
combination to blacken the character
of Gov. Brewer. He says he is willing
to accord to Gov. Brewer all the praise
that is due him, but, he says, "let him
not, like Elijah of old, think he alone
of all Israel is left. The Lord said tc
Elijah, there are forty thousand vel

Washington, D. c.. Oct. 17.-Declar- |

ing banks from charging exchange is
eliminated, Senator John Sharp Will
liams has written a twenty page letter
to President Wilson setting forth his
views of the bill in whole and in par
ticular.
In his own way, Mr.. Williams sums
up his attitude toward the bill at the
beginning of the letter when he says:
Il want to say, upon the whole, I
was delighted with the bill; found it
to be, taking 1t plum through as

Enumerates Its Defects.
Senator williams then enumerates
the defects of ordinary character" in
which the most interesting is his op-
position to granting twelve months
loans on farm lads, before reaching
the vital point in his letter-his deter
mined opposition to prohibiting banks
from charging exchange fees. On this
feature he says:
Now I come to the defect which
seems to me to be vital. It is the
attempt to force country banks to col
lect and remit checks and bills of ex
change drawn upon other banks in
other places free of charge. This is
not a part of the public functioning OF
banking. That is to say, it does not
relate itself to the Government or to
the interests of the people as whole
1t relates to a purely personal service
and the charge for the service. 1t is
service which a private individual
as we'll as a bank could perform and
which private individuals frequently
do perform. When performed in that
way, it is called shaving notes OF
bills"
He suggests that If there is any sus
picion that the banks will charge ex
tortionately for the performance OF
this service, the bill might fix a max
imum rate and adds:
THE sole result of this provision
would be to deprive the country banks
of large amounts Of profits which they
now make and which add to the divi

]. ]. MQUILLAN TELLS WHY NORTH STAR
DECEIVED HIM IN THE DEVELOPMENT

James j. McQuillan, superintendent
of the Rescue Eula and late superin-
tendent of the North Star, returned
to Tonopah last Tuesday from San
Francisco, where he had been in
consultation with President Zadig of
the North Star mine
To a representative of the Bonanza
Mr.. McQuillan said;
$50 much has been said and print
ed recently regarding North Star as
to make almost national issue of
purely local mining condition; and
so many different conclusions have
been drawn, and so many different
views presented, that anything
might say would seem to have little
weight However, / want to assure
you and the public that the sudden
decline in values in the big stope
above the 1050-foot level of the North
Star, which has caused all this trou,
BILE, was entirely unforeseen by me,
and that any statements made by me,
and any and all reports sent to
President Zadig, were made in all
sincerity; they were my honest con
victions regarding North Star, and |
had no personal interest in the mar
ket conditions on this particular
stock
ut has been stated on Bush street.
San Francisco, that | shorted 10000
shares of Star state positively
that | have not sold one share of
North Star short. My dealings in the
stock were limited by financial con,
ditions to few thousand shares, and
| say frankly that | have not made
any money on that stock, regardless
of rumored manipulation and the ad
vantages of inside information.
From the showing on the $50 and
1850 levels | felt safe in banking on
an enormous ore body between these
two levels, and particularly so when
the main upraise from the 1850 to
/ the $50 continued in good ore all the
way. The drift on the $50 was ex
tended ITO feet in good ore, where
at times two machines were working
| side by side in the face of the drift
| and with the ore showing all the
way in the bottom of the drift. On
the 1850 level the width of the drift
on this ore was never less than six
| feet, and sometimes as wide as ten
| feet, and continued in ore for a
length of 200 feet, while the upraise
from that level to the $50 showed
good ore all the way up.
For these reasons it was only fail
to assume that we had an immense
tonnage of good grade ore in sight
between these two levels. However
it has developed that the main up
raise from the 1850 to the $50 just
1 happened to be run up on the only
continuous body of ore between the
levels, and had this raise been start
ed 40 feet further east it would have
encountered the low-grade ore anC

have been discovered weeks ago TIT

been lost. 1t was not case of
pinching or encountering fault. The
values simply gave out and that is
all there is to it, 1t was condi.
tion absolutely unforeseen. In the
North Star mine, however, we
were drawing upon the high values
of the big rich shoot that went
through to the $50 to enrich the low
er grade ore which has at all times
been encountered in the slopes. This
rich shoot lost its values and that
caused all the trouble. Had that held
out we would have continued produc-
ton and prosecuted development
work in the winze and on the 1850
level to connect up with the 1850,
preparations for which had already
been made in the cutting out of the
station on the 1850 for the winze.
The shaft had also been put in good
shape and new compressor and air
pipe installed
In short, it was my idea that this
block of ore would hold until we had
opened up the ore below the 1850.
But while the vein is there, the
values simply disappeared and this
condition of affairs was hardly to be
anticipated considering that the ore
had been proven by one upraise to
be continuous between the 1850 and
$50 levels
Il am still very optimistic about
the future of the North Star mine
below the 1850 level The ore shows
strong in the bottom of this drift
and a winze started near the en-
| trance to this shoot of ore showed
actual assay values of over 1872 per
ton at depth of Is feet. AS this
winze seemed to be inadvantageously
located it was abandoned and an
other winze is being sunk about two
hundred feet east, which should
catch the ore shoot on its eastern
rake.
In conclusion, | wish to reiterate
that the values simply disappeared
where we had good reason to sup.
pose that we had an ample supply
of>ore in sight to continue the regu-
lar production until the lower levels
of the mine could be opened up

intendent of the Rescue Eula and

SET TWAIN AT "WORK"
HOW GEN. SHERMAN MADE HU.
MORlST PAY FARE.
Author Compelled to Pose az Famous
Soldier While the Latter Smoked
ContentedIy In His Private
Car.

Albert Bigelow Paine tells Of the
time when Mark Twain on his way
to West Point to deliver an address
found himself in the same train with
General Sherman, who had been at
tending dinner in Hartford.
"A pleasant incident followed, which
Clemens himself used to relate. Gen.
Sherman attended the banquet and
Secretary of War Robert Lincoln.
Next morning Clemens and Twichell
were leaving for West Point, where
they were to address the military stu.
dents, guests on the same special
train on which Lincoln and Sherman
mad their private car. This car was
at the end of the train, and when the
two passengers reached the station
Sherman and Lincoln were out on the
rear platform addressing the multi
tude. Clemens and Twichell went in
and. taking seats, waited for them.
AS the speakers finished the train
started, but they still remained out
side, bowing and waving to the as
sembled citizens, 80 that 1t was under
good headway before they came in.
Sherman came up to Clemens. who
sat smoking unconcernedly.
WE'LL he said, who told you you
could go in this CARP
Nobody said Clemens.
DO you expect to pay extra fareT
asked Sherman.
No. said Clemens; I don't expect
to pay any fare
30, you don't! Then you'll work
your way
sherman took off his coat and mill
tary hat and made Clemens put them
on.
Now said he, whenever the train
stops you get out on the platform
and represent me and make speech
1T was not long before the train
stopped and Clemens, according to or
ders, stepped out on the rear platform
and bowed to the crowd There was
a cheer at the sight Of his military
uniform. Then the cheer waned, be-
came a murmur Of uncertainty, fol-
lowed by an undertone of discussion.
Presently somebody said:
Say, that amt Sherman; that's
Mark Twain. which brought another
cheer.
Then Sherman had to come out,
too, and the result was that both
spoke. They kept this up at the diff
ferent stations and sometimes Robert
Lincoln came out with them. and when
there was time all three spoke. much
to the satisfaction of their audiences" :"
