mento, $2,503, ,633; Yuba, $2,491 ,5O5,
and Butte, $2,269,849. These three
counties owe their large production of
gold to the dredging industry, from
which the bulk Of their gold is de-
rived. The most productive metal
camp in the state in 1913 was Ken
rett, in Shasta county, where the larg-
est amelter in California is situated.
The total output at Kennett was $780,

PRODUCTION OF CALIFORNIA
MINES DURING THE YEAR 1915

The value Of the recoverable gold,
silver, copper, lead and zinc produced
at mines in California in 1913, ac-
cord;ng to Charles G. Yale, of the
United States Geological Survey, was
S26.812. .4S9. compared with S26,383,94G
in 1912 and S25,174,677 in 1911. EX-
cept in zinc there was an increase III
the output of all these metals, al
though the tonnage from deep mines
showed decline and there were fewer
mines reporting production than in
1912.
The mine production Of gold in 1913
was $50, ,95s-$693, ,4S0 more than
in 1912, an increase of 3.52 per cent.
The deep mines of the state produced
S11,570,781, or 56.70 per cent of the
total. The increase in gold from deep
mines for the year was $502,966, Or
4.54 per cent. The placer mines pro-
duced S8,S36,177 in gold, an increase
of S190,514, or 2.20 per cent.
This output of gold in California
was the largest in thirty-one years
the Weld in 1883 having been S24,313,
S73. Only three times in forty-nine
years has the gold output exceeded
$40 100000, and if the year 1883 is
excluded, the gold output in 1918 was
higher than it has been since 1864
The gold is now derived from eX-
tensive opera tions rather than from
efforts of individuals or numerous
small enterprises. Some of the deeper
quartz mines are working as good ore
at vertical depths of 5000 to nearly
1000 feet as was found near the sur
face. The dredgers are now produc-
ing 91.56 per cent of the placer gold
from ground which was formerly con
sidered worthless for mining, as being
100 poor in gold, having no "fall'' or
no drainage, ana on Wnlcn water cOUIu
not be used advantageously on any
scale under the old systems of gravel
mining. There are now siXty-three
dredgers in operation in California,
and since the beginning of operations
with these machines in the state ff-
teen years ago, the dredge gold out
put has reached a total of S63 sos, ,4S5
From production of S206,302 in 1899
the lnnual output from gold dredges
reached in 1913 the sum of $4,000 ,29s,
which is 1864 per cent of the total
yield of the state and 91.56 per cent
of The total output of placer gold.
The hydraulic mines produced $780,
800, or 3.73 per cent of the total pro-
duction of gold in the state in 1918,
the drift mines produced S192,5 ,538, or
2.18 per cent; and the surface or
sluictng mines produced $224,O45, or
2.53 per cent.
There were 410 deep mines report
ing production in 1918, a decrease of
122 compared with 1912 A total of
2,495,9 tons of ore was treated in
1913, & decrease of 145,539 tons. The
siliceous ore treated at gold and silver
mills amounted to 1,905,258 tons,
yielding $8,469,2 ,245 in gold, or S4.44 a
ton in bullion From this ore were
derived 1862 tons of concentrates,
which contained $2.O63, ,656 in gold, or
S63.20 ton. The average value in
gold and silver in the ore milled was
S5.57 a ton, of which $5.52 was in
gold and cents in silver. The 531,-
189 tons of ore sent to smelters pro-
duced $840,03O in gold, or $1.58 ton;

House Passes the Appropriation Bill
Without. the Sportsman"
Clause.
ONE "RIDER" Is INCLUDED

Without the spokesman clause, and
carrying only one legislative rider, the
postofiice appropriation bill passed tht
House yesterday without a division. The
bill appropriates the record-breaking sun
Of $3o5. 10000. II includes a Legislative
rider which extends to postoffice clerks
letter carriers, rural free delivery car
riers. mounted carriers and postoffics
messengers full salaries for the first year
following an accident incurred in the line
OF duty and disabling the victim, and an
additional half salary for the second

point Of order, II was dispelled in the
debate. when II developed that two men,

mated to confer with Postmaster General

A threatened revolt by some Of the

when the seat became vacant.
At the same time the committee
adopted a rule that each Senator Is
entitled, as a matter of right. to three
rooms in the Senate ONCE Building for
his workshop, and that until each Sen
ator is supplied up to this number no
Senator shall be entitled to occupy
more than three rooms. 1t developed
at the meeting of the Rules Committee
that some of the older Senators have
magnificent suites, including as many
as six rooms. while some OF the
younger ones are unable to get more
than two rooms to work in.
Furthermore, II was found that some
of the older Senators not only have q
number Of rooms in the ONCE Building,
but have other quarters in the main
The Rules Committee adopted q reso-
luton instructing the Sergeant-at-Arms
that hereafter no Senator should be en-
titled to assert a claim to any particular
