seending with every sale until al
noon they touched the lowest point
OF the day At closing the trading
involved 92.500 shares
The air was filled with rumors
varying from exhaustion OF the mine
to the revival Of the old suit TO
have the last annual election set
aside and a new election ordered
Then there was report current
that the validity Of the last assess
met would be made the subject Of
judicial investigation since It was
levied at time the North Star was
earning more than enough 10 defray
all expenses. There is movement
afoot to gain control Of the Star, but
in the estimation Of conservative
men opposed to the Zadig leader
ship, nothing can be gained at this
time except to impair confidence in
the stock.
One Of the most detrimental ru
mors was to the effect that the rail
road had sent two cars to the North
Star ore bins last Saturday and haul
Cd away one empty this morning
The rumors also alleged there was
a lean streak in the mine and thai
shipments would soon begin to di
minish.
Explaining the report Of mine ex
haustion. it is said that the compan,
began taking cut ore before thi
mine had been properly deyelope'
for a sustained production and tha
the tonnage could not be kept up

are taxed out Of proportion to the
mileage involved in the haul between
the southern seaboard and the min.
ing camps of southern Nevada To-
nopah is their chief objective and it
is contended that the Tonopah &
Goldfield railroad is receiving more
than fair proportion of the through
rate on the rate per ton per mile.
This is said to constitute discrimi-
nation in favor Of San Francisco.
Should the demands Of the south
ern shippers be received with favor
by the railroad commission it is said
a reduction Of from fifteen to TWEEN
ty-five per cent would ensue and
that the greatest benefit would be
felt by housekeepers who would find
"a material reduction on vegetables
and other products carried in refrig-
orator cars.

TRIES TO JUMP
DOWN MIDWAY
MINE SHAFT
VETERAN FOUNDER PREVENTED
FROM SMASHING HIMSELF
DOWN NEW SHAFT.

One Eyed Leon, character of the
lower district, who has given the
police lots of trouble tried to end
his existence last night at the Mid
way mine He loaded up with hop
and then declared his intention Of
making a spectacular descent Of the
Midway mine. He said he had al
ways been eager to get a nice obit-
uary and would furnish the Bonanza
with story that would get a first
page position. The only mistake he
made was in taking too much yen
shee for he was scarcely able to
walk when he climbed to the shaft
on the northern edge Of the district.
Fortunately the top man was yigiant
and ready to thwart any plans to
muss up the nice new shaft for he
drove Leon away from the property
and chased him down the hin where
he left him to ruminate on the
ups and downs of life Then Leon
conceived the brilliant idea of drown
ing himself in the slime pond and
started to wade out where the ground
was nice and soft About this time
Chief of Police Evans got word Of
the doings and rushed to the scene
with taxi He found Leon sprawl
ing around the shines with only his
nose and toes visible.
The chief had a nice new suit Of
clothes and he was not disposed to
wade out to suppress this new
September Morn so he sailed on
passing cowboy to come hither with
his lariat and after several futile
attempts Leon was dragged ignomin-
iously from his soft berth. Then he
was treated to sudden sousing in
clear water and was forced to don
pair of overalls in which he was
compelled to walk to the courthouse
where he was lodged for safekeeping.
Leon win be examined for sanity.
1t is supposed that he is hopelessly
insane owing to excessive indul
gence.

Washington, D c., March Z. - Re-

ommending the reforms which he de-
clared would add millions of dollars to
the governments income and minimize
the demoralizing frauds.
The commission recommends crea.

various boards of ex-ministers and in

The ad valorem method of assess
