For some time Superintendent Zabriskie

CALIFORNIA HAS BIG
DEPOSITS OF IRON

The iron ores OF the Pacific coast have
until recently received but little atten-
tion. Numerous deposits have been
known to exist, but they have generally
been regarded as too far from centers OF
consumption and fuel supplies to be
worked at profit and too small to war
rant the expense OF erecting furnaces
within reach. Tho deposits at Minaret
MADEIRA county, Cal, are said to be among
the largest in California and perhaps In
the west. They occur on the SUBMITS
OF the Sierra Nevada. Probably next in
size. but OF greater commercial import
ance, are the Eagle mountain deposits,
In Riverside county. Cal
The United States geological survey has
Just published as bulletin sos a report on
the ron-ore deposits of the Eagle noun
talns, by q c. Harder. The eNamina-
tlon and mapping OF these. deposits form

WALLACE. Idaho. March 1.-The Fed
eral Mining company has just closed a
deal whereby the Flynn group OF mining
claims, lying on the crest OF the divide
between Gem and Mullan and adjoining
both the Morning and Frisco mines,
passes into Federal control under two
year bond for $3.50. 900. The deal was
closed several days ago by Harry L.
Day, president and general manager Of
the Federal.
The Flynn company has been reorgan-
lied, With Mr. Day as It's head, and RAM
sey Walker, treasurer. Joseph Whalen
will continue In office as secretary. A
substantial payment has been made 10
the former owners OF the property, all
OF whom are pioneers OF the district, and
It Is practically certain that the bond will
be taken up before Its expira ton, as the
showings on the Flynn ground, together
with Its proximity to the Federal hold

QUICK ACTION NEEDED

The lead ore producers of the west
were urged in no uncertain terms on
Saturday to prepare for the coming tariff
revision session Of congress by Engineer
George ". Ritter. who. with Judge King,
recently represented the producers OF
ore of Utah before tho congressional
ways and means COMMITTEES. Mr. Ritter
returned Late Friday from Washington
and New York. and he has been in con-
ference with the committee Of Utah orc
producers, Of which committee Duncan
MacVichie Ia chairman.
It was announced on Saturday that
this committee. which IS composed Of
thirteen prominent Utah mining opera
tors. viii hold meeting on next Thurs
day evening at the Commercial club. One
OF the matters of importance TO come be-
fore this committee win be ways and
ineans OF cooperating with lead and
Zinc ore producers of the entire west in
preparing statistics OF production that
will be far moro comprehensive than
mere statewide statistics. for the fight
coming before the nsxt congress must be
waged from the standpoint Of q great
industry, not as q state matter.

Tariff Trimming Coming.

To The Tribune yesterday Mr.. Ritter
stated that as q general thing. tho peo-
pie OF the east are expecting a trim
ming OF the tariff all along ths line, and
each industry OF Importance is prepar-
ing not only to be properly represented
the right hour. bus they are striving TO
bring about adjustments to meet chang
Ing conditions should their special line
be affected by tariff revision.
Mr., Ritter points out that the lead In
duetry occupies a little corner all by
itself, and the only persons paying any
attention TO the lead tariff aside from
the members OF the proper congressional
eommittee. are the manufacturers Of fin
producers Of lead ore on the other. Tho
manufacturer OF lead goods wants mis-
raw material at as cheap a price as he
can secure it, while he wants 10 sell his
finished product at the best price possi-
Die and with the advantages OF tariff
protection.
The existing tariff on pig lead and lead
IN bars-that is. the finished or refined
metel-is 2s cents per pound. and this

will not be SO damaging TO the lead pro-
ducer Of the United States In the first
place. the smclters. theoretically, at
least, pay. for lead In ores on the basis
OF the refined products value In the east
The number OF mines competing against
natural conditions, such as wet md deep
mines and unfavorable facilities, are
trying TO get their money back by crowd
ing the production OF lead ores upon the
market, and they succeed in producing
enough metal to keep the market at
such range that London cannot under
sell America and pay the tariff as well
