 IL N Mabery secretary of the Iron Chief Mining Company said yes terday that nothing would be done until patents for the claims are se- cured.
 "so far as I know, we will not contest the decision of the receiver and register" said Mabery. Eighty of our claims are declared valid. We have twenty-five claims along the ridge of the mountains already pat ented. As to the eighty the decision of Messrs Buren and Robinson will go to the commissioner of the gem eraI land office and from him to the Secretary of the Interior.
 "As to the forty-five claims which we withdrew and the twcnty-one claims to be cancelled under the decision, We will reapply for such as we regard as valuable to our project. The Southern Pacific Company has had no desire for a monopoly. but this iron ore can not be successfully handled except by one big concern,

That Is What the Building Of the Chef Mem
Our Own Roads Are Completed.

New Orleans, Nov. 25.-Plans for
constructing model highway be-
tween New Orleans and the gulf Coast
towns, to form an important link in
the projected transcontinental all
Southern route between San Fran
cisco and the East, are progressing
very satisfactorily, according to Pur-
nell NJ. Miller, president Of the Gulf
Coast Good Roads Association. It is
announced that a survey will be made
within the next few days Of the link
between New Orleans and Pass Chris
Itian.
Mr.. Miller stated that the New Or
leans City Council and the parishes
Of Jefferson and st. Tammany are in
thorough sympathy with the project
and are expected to support It finan-
cfally.
.'Mr. Joseph o. Schwartz has just
advised me that the parish Of Jeffer-
son, which has intact 100000 from
the sale Of its bonds, desires to build
the link of this road through their
parish" said Mr.. Miller.
Mr.. e. ]. Domergue OF the Good
Roads Committee Of St. TammaRy

upon being assure dthat we would
buildi our section Of the road, said
the State would be petitioned for
