BLUE BULL HAS
A GOOD STREAK
OF PAY ORE
ASSAYS SHOW SIX TO FOURTEEN
INCHES AVERAGING
SIS TO $45.

Rumors to the effect that pay ore
had been found on the Blue Bull
are substantiated by an Of
ficial statement of the company. The
reports Of assay values have been
grossly exaggerated. Mr. A. II. Howe
has given out the following state
ment:
For the past two weeks we have
had pretty good streak Of ore in
the Blue Bull in a cross-cut on the
500 level, running from 6 to IA
inches in width and giving assays
from SIS to $45 per ton. The values
have been principally in gold al
though the ore carries some silver
and copper. This showing is being
systematically and vigorously deyel
oped by drifts and raises.
"The cross-cut on the 7OO-foot leve
has entered a vein. which may be
the Victor vein, which was the origi
nal objective Of our operations The
cross.cut has not yet passed through
the vein and it is not possible t
make any statement Of conditions OF
this level until much more develop
ment has been performed
] "The Indebtedness Of the eompan
has been reduced from $4,000 I
$4,000, and we have in the treasur
approximately $4,000 At the pres
en- rate of our development expense
it will probably not be necessary
levy another call for five or 81
months"

STANDARD O|L DTOBACCO IN
 FOR AN INQUIRY
Presidents Cabinet Dis cusses Necessity of Inves- tigation as to Whether Big Concerns Are Obey ing Mandates of Courts
TAssocIATED PRESS DISPATCH

WASHINCTON. June 3-Whethcr the decrees of the United States courts dismembcrng the Standard oil and Tobacco trusts into separate units are being carried out in letter and spirit, were considered today by the Wilson administration with a view of the possible institution of the most import ant antitrust moves yet contemplated by the president and Attorney General McReynoIds.
 In the Standard Oil case, the attor- neY general has received from Charles E. Morrison and Oliver F. Hagan, his special assistants, a report of the re suits of their investigation of condi- tions of the oil industry and has be gun consideration of the question Of whether the facts disclosed would jus tify the department of justice in bring ing contempt of court or criminal pro ceedings against the oil interests on charges of violation of the dissolution decree
 Tonight in discussion of the tobacco case, practically the entire meeting of the cabinet was devoted to considering whether the surface conditions of the tobacco trade warrant the attorney general in beginning an investigation similar to that just finished in the Standard oil case to determine wheth- CT the decree of dissolution has been violated The attorney general after the meeting was -cOmmital a to whether the inquiry will be undertaken. McReynOlds who, as special assistant attorney general, originally prosecuted the Tobacco trust has been studying the workings of the decree since he entered the cabinet It is known he disagreed with former Attorney Gen eral Wickersham as to the adequacy of the adoption of the plan of disin- tegration.

Former Postmaster General Says Report of Burleson Shows Insignificant Dis crepancies and Ignores Good Accomplished
POINTS TO THE
 BIG EXTENSIONS
Says Thousands of New Of fices Were Established, Service Bettcrcd and De partment Placed on Self Sustaining Basis
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPATcHI

SILVER CITY, June 3.-On his ar rival at Silver City today from the MongoIIon mountains. where he has been spending some weeks. former Postmaster General Frank H Hitch cock was shown for the first time a statement issued few days ago by Postmaster General Burleson attack ing his administration of the post office department. After reading the charges Hitchcock issued the follow ing statement:
 "A committee, composed in the main of newly appointed assistants having had less than three months experience in the postoffice business attempts to report to the present head of the department to the dis credit of the financial showing made by the postal service under President Taft's administration.
 After reporting alleged discrepan- cies that are insignificant when com pared to the great sums known to have been saved by their prede- cessors. this committee of novftiates proceeds with this published state ment to enlighten the American people as to the character of postal service il has been receiving.
 Their statement is as inaccurate as it iS gratuitous, for the public well knows there never was a postal service conducted so efficiently or mail handled with greater precision and dispatch than during the closing wears of the Taft administration. During that administration nearly 5000 new postoffices were established free delivery and letter carriers sup piled in about three hundred addi- tional cities. and over 5000 new rural routes aggregating about 75.0OO miles authorized
 Notwithstanding these great ex- tensions of the service and the heavy increase of expenditures required, the pCstoffice department was placed on a self sustaining basis. and that was its condition on the fourth of March. when it passed into the hands of the newly appointed officers who seem thus far to have been exhausting their time and energy in a vain at tempt to detract from the record of the devoted public servants they sue ceeded."
