WILL ERECT FIFTY-TON
CYANIDE PLANT ON GROUND

Joe TeChau, who has a lease on
the Silver Hill property in the Silver
City district, dating from the 18th of
this month, is arranging to erect a
50-ton mill and a cyanide plant so
that the property can be worked oil
quite an extensive scale, says the
Yerington Times. There is "a big
body if milling ore in the property
and it is estimated that when worked
on the scale that Mr.. Techau pro-
poses it will yield handsome returns.
Paul BENEFITS and Leon Bishop
had a nice little cleanup at the
McTigue mill a few days ago from
ore taken from their claim, the
Midas.
The two cyanide plants in the
camp, the Woodbury. plant and the
Donovan plant, are fixing up to start
on their summer runs. The snow
storms put these plants out of com
mission for several months this win
ter.
The L~auretzen boys had a nice
little bunch of ore from their lease
on the Silver Central worked at the
McTigue mill last week and the clean
up was very satisfactory.

SUIT FOR 500, 900 FILED
AGAINST GIROUX CONS.

Attorney Billings has brought suit
in the district court against the Gil
roux Consolidated company on be-
half of Constantine Cayara, admin
istrator of the estate of Anasthasios
A~nasthasiou. who was killed in one
of the mines of the company last
summer while acting in the capacity
of mucker. 1t is alleged in the
complaint that the deceased was in
structed by the foreman of the
company to shovel out ore in a stope,
when the ground gave way, falling
upon him, from tn injuries of which
death resulted. According to the
complaint the deceased had a very
imperfect knowledge of the English
language. and was also inexperienced
in mining and therefore did not APP
p%reciate the danger attendant upon
the work in which he was engaged.
The suit will no doubt be vigorous
~ contested by the company.-Ely

SEVEN TROUGHS MILL
IS AGAIN OPERATING
CANVAS TABLE INSTALLED TO
SEPARATE SAND FROM
SUIPHiDES

The mill of the Seven Troughs
Coalition Mining company has resum-
ed operations. having been started
up a week ago to treat some of the
hihg-grade product that has been de-
veloped below the tenth level, says
the Salt Lake Tribune.
r. j. Evans, who has just returned
from the Sagebrush state, says it is
estimated that the average value of
the tonnage now in course of treat
ment will be above $500 a ton.
AS an adjunct to the plants equip
ment, a small canvas table has been
installed for the purpose of separat-
ing the fine sulphides from the
sands after passing the concentrators.
The few days trial already given
this auxiliary show a marked precip-
itation of sulphides on the canvas
bed and a clean, sandy discharge at
the overflow. AS it has been fully
that but little value is carried in the
sands, it is confidently expected that
an extraction of at least 95 per cent
will be made by the adoption of this
effective and inexpensive process.
A station is being cut at the 40
foot level of No. 4 Wine, preparatory
to starting north and south drifts.
AT this point in the workings the vein
is eighteen inches wide and assays
$593.70 per ton. Above the south
drift of this level are eighty feet of
backs, from which ore extraction
will begin as soon as that drift has
been advanced a sufficient distance
to warrant stopping.
By the end of the present month
forty or fifty men will be employed
underground in drifting, sinking and
stopping.

DROWNED IN HUMBOLDT
RIVER AT PALISADE

The bookkeeper for the iron mine
I; Palisade was drowned in the Hum
boldt river at that place late Tues
day night and his body swept down
the stream over two miles before it
was recovered. His name was H. G..
Fisher and he was a member of the
Eagles lodge at Salt Lake City. In
company with Bill Warren he left
the offices of the company shortly
before 10 O'Clock and attempted to
the swollen river on a small
hand bridge. About twelve feet from
the bank he lost his balance and
plunged head first into the water.
The river is at full flood and at this
point the water runs at a speed of
fully ten miles an hour. AS he came

"Good-by, Bill: I'm gone" and was

thai any attention has been paid to
the vanadium ores of Utah and this
was brought about in the search for

of the notwithstanding ores OF Utah

Should it turn out that vanadium

Press has the following to say:
After 25 years of almost continual
experiment, j. Ellwood Lee, of Con

cry that promises to revolutioniZe
the rubber industry-the production
of vanadium rubber. Countless eli
forts have been made to produce a

should vanadium rubber solve the
problem, as repeated tests would
seem to indicate that it has, a dis

BIG INCREASE
BANK DEPOSITS
ANNUAL REPORT OF STATE
BAN kEXANINER EUGENE
HOWELL MADE PUBLIC

No banks have failed in Nevada
during the past year. according to
the annual report of State Bank Ex-
aminer Eugene Howell, received in
Reno yesterday, says h Journal.
The report shows banks throughout
Nevada TO be in a prosperous condl-
ton, in fact conditions are declared
to be the best III the history of the
state. A material decrease in over
drafts has been accomplished while
a substantial increase has been made
in every item in which an increase
is desirable.
The total resources of the % state
banks shows an annual increase of
$1,4S5,535.24 and the following
summary of the report contains 9TH
er items of interest in comparing
the increases over the year 1912:
Capital stock, $125,3O0.
Surplus, $19,66S.12.
Net undivided profits, $~19,763.1S.
Loans and discounts, $S11,265.36.
Bonds and other securities, SAT-
072.40.
Cash on hand. $45,991.S4.
Lawful reserve, $545,177.63.
Savings deposits, $401,225.24.
Total deposits, 1,31G,247.13.
The banks are now CARRYING the
unusually high reserve of SCI per
cen OF the depositors money in cash
in their vaults and in other banks.
The total deposits, amounting to
$10,34G,424.10 and are growing con
stantly, and are also greater than at
any time since the panic of 1907.
Confidence in the banking sys-
TEN of this state has been restored
to a very great extent, thanks to our
banking act Of 1911, which limited
the powers of the banks and provid-
ed for adequate supervision says
the report.
The overdraft problem says EX-
aminer Howell in his report, has
been one of the most difficult, in the
new law, which the banks have had
to solve. Most of our banks have
now, after three years of effort, edu-
tdLSu IltlI ClleutS 10 anticipate llelT
loan requirements and to make pro-
vision for loans before the money is
really needed. Such banks show lit
tie or nothing in oyerdrafts. The to-
tai in oyerdrafts has been reduced
very greatly since the passage of the
banking act of 1911.
The o%verdraft condition is present
ed as follows:
January Z, 1911, ~overdrafts
amounted to $4S5,218.15.
October 81, 1918, overdrafts
amounted to ~$S2,21S.15.
The report declares the office of
the banking examiner was conducted
economically. The total expenditures
for the year amounted to $6,575.93.
and the receipts. derived from Ii
lenses collected, reached $3,775.
One new bank has been chartered
during the past year, the Winnemuc-
ca State Bank and Trust company of
Winnemucca, which has a capitaliza-
ton of 100000.
One bank, the Farmers Bank of
Carson Valley at Minden, with the
consent of the examiner, increased
it's capital stock from $4,000 to
$4,000.

Samuel Milliken, a local authority on

According TO an act passed by the Leg

pointed out that to students of economic
questions a lawful exemption of machin-

of incaculable value to the industries.
Milliken's contention is that the eXemp-

The tax expert is of the opinion that at

In the event of his taxpayers suit"

manufacturers would be compelled either
to fight for the repeal of the obnxious
tax on machinery or suffer economically
by its enforcement.

During the life Of Joseph Fels, Mr.

campaigns with the famous soapmaker''
