SUIT OF SPHINX
COMPROMISED
AND SUITS
ENDED
STOCK ADVANCES RAPIDLY ON
REPORT OF AN EARLY
SETTLEMENT.

Reports OF a settlement of the suit
OF the Round Mountain Sphinx Min
ing company against the Round
Mountain Mining company caused the
stock of the latter company to ad-
vance three cents and close strong.
The decision to take the case out of
court is in line with previous actions
of the Round Mountain company
which effected a settlement of the
Davidson suit brought on somewhat
analogous grounds after repeated rul-
ings had proven the mtiiity of reach
ing nearly understanding through
legal channels
William Forman, attorney for the
Sphinx, Is in Goldheld attending a
conference with the officers of the
Round Mountain company
A message from Goldfield at 4
O'Clock this afternoon announced
formally that the compromise had
been signed and that all litigation
was at an end. The suit in various
phases had been TO the supreme
court and back six times and the
general land office had also been
called on for several rulings. The
Round Mountain absorbs all the
property OF the Sphinx and the re-
tirement of the suits pave the way
for a greater development and the
prosecution of several important pro
iects that will add substantially to
the value OF the Round Mountain
Mining company. The project con
templates the purchase of valuable
water right and an increase in the
production of the Round Mountain
company
The withdrawal is due to the ef
forts of James C. Robertson ant
Thomas J. Lynch. who acted as me
diators between the contending par
ties.

Frank p. Mannix, county treasurer,
died of uraemic poisoning last even
ing at 545 O'Clock, at his home,
where he had been i'll for only
couple of days Death was not un-
expected, as it was evident from
about noon that no medical assist

had set in from former organic trou-
bles.
Mr.. Mannix was down town Friday

but did not complain. Before re-
turning home he dropped into the of
flee of Dr. w. T. Liggett asking for
a prescription which apparently had
the desired effect, for next morning
the patient was reported to be feel
ing better, although he did not at
tempt to go to his office. DR.. Lig-
gett visited Mr.. Mannix at his home
and was satisfied with the progress
and the patient expressed himself
better than he had felt for some time.
That evening the doctor called again
and prescribed further treatment and
left Instructions to be called next
morning if the medicine failed to
operate. Saturday Mrs. Mannix
called at the physicians office and
received supplementary instructions,
with a request to advise the doctor
the following morning On Sunday
Mr.. Mannix began to display symp
toms that made his case rather seri

to improvement, but the response
was not as rapid as had occurred

News of the Death.

News of the death spread rapidly
and friends and associates of the
deceased expressed grief and sur
prise. They had been. accustomed to
hearing of brief attacks. but not one
Of them was prepared or ready for
the startling Intervention Of death.
One reason for the news OF the Ill
ness not exciting any alarm was the
knowledge that Mr. Mannix was very
sensitive about his weakness and his
friends had been taught TO refrain
from inquiring when they were in
formed that he could not attend to
the duties of his office. Therefore
they abstained from asking about his
condition. as il was expected that he

You're broad minded man" the
patient said. addressing DR.. Liggett,
and don't think you would object
to DR.. Mackenzie coming here. You
know he operated on me and knows
more about my case than any one
else"
DIR. Liggett assented to the sugges-
tion. This was at o'clock yester-
day afternoon, following further
consultation with Drs. Grigsby and
Mcleod, and the consensus of opin-
ion was that it would be useless to
send for DR.. Mackenzie, as it was
obvious that the patient could not
survive to morning. This decision
was communicated to Mrs. Mannlx,

COMPENSATION BILL Is UP
Measure Represents Best Features Of
Similar Ones Enacted In
Twenty-Three States.

Washington, April 4.-The bill pro-
viding workingmen's compensation
for federal employees suffering injuries
or occupational diseases in the course
of their employment was reported to
the house judiciary committee by a
subcommittee. The measure repre-
sents the best features of similar bills
enacted in % states. 1t extends ben
month in cases of total disability, and
less amounts monthly for injuries or
partial disability to every employe
under the government. The existing
law applies only to accidents and to
but one-fourth of the employees of the
government, with one years pay as
the limit of compensation in any case.
The pending bill provides no limit OF
total compensation but prescrlbes that
