INDIAN SHOOTS
AGENT MAILMAN
AT RESERVATION.

Word reached here last Sunday
morning that H. ". Hailman, Agent
and physician at the Walker Lake
Reservation, had been shot at Schurz
by an Indian, and requested that a
physician be sent at once. DR.. J. A.
Knox was soon on his way to Schurz
in the Snyder machine He found
that Hailman had been shot through
the shoulder, the bullet passing
through he lung Mr.. Hailman was
taken to Reno on the Sunday after
noon train, accompanied by DR.. Knox,
and placed in hospital His wound
was found to be quite serious, but not
necessarily fatal.
1t seems that Jim Bennett had a
sick granddaughter, whom DR.. Hail
man had treated, but the Indian de
sired to come to Yerington with the
child for medicine and also to see an
other doctor. Hailman would not al
low this, it is reported, and the child
is said to have died. Bennett became
enraged at the Agent and Sunday
morning about 3 or o'clock procured
some coaloil and scattered it about
the outside OF the Hailman residence,
setting it on fire. AS Hailman APP
pered Bennett shot him with 30-30
rifle. Hailman managed to crawl into
the house and the Indian secured
horse and left for parts unknown.
The shooting occurred in Mineral
county and the officers of that county
started out with a posse as soon as
notified OF the affair, to round up
Bennett. Up to date they have failed
to find him, although accompanied by
Indian trailers and Reservation police
There has been considerable friction
between the Indians and Hailman and
from all accounts he has used very
little tact with them. A charge was
made against him some months ago OF
abuse to squaw and an investigation
was held and Hailman was exonerated.
A bad feeling prevailed among the
Indians for Hailman however, and
other things have since occurred to
widen the breach of 'ill-feeling. II
is not at all likely that the Indians on
the Reservation. or off of it, in this
neighborhood, will break their necks
trying to capture Bennett.
Word from Reno is to the effect that
Ilailman is recovering rapidly

CHECK FORGER ARRESTED.

Officer Bulkeley, of Wabuska, took
a man named James Mack into GUS
tody Wednesday on charge of forg
ing checks Mack. it appears, had
been working for Henry Therein, of
the lower end of the valley, and had
been given check by Therein for
$40 and some cents. This he pro-
ceeded to spend and then drew some
more checks and forged Therein s
name to them. The checks amounted
to something over $40 and Cashier
Webster, of the Lyon County Bank,
is the complaining witness against
Mack, who will probably have a hear
ing on the charge of forgery today.

RAILROAD COMMISSION
DESIRES COOPERATION
OF ROADS AND SHIPPERS

The railroad Commission of Nevada
has sent out the following notice to
shippers and receivers of freight
During the next few months the
preponderance of traffic will be out
bound from Nevada, thereby lessen
ing the number of cars which will be
available for local traffic.
The Commission respectfully re-
quests that shippers and receivers of
freight in carload lots use every effort
to load and unload cars in less than
forty eight hours free time permitted
under our demurrage rules.
Shippers are also requested to load
cars to full capacity, which will ma
terially reduce the number of cars
needed to handle their business.
Railroads are requested to handle
promptly, when billed, all carload
shipments and to move empty cars to
loading points without delay; also to
repair promptly for service all Grip
pied and bad order cars.
The Commission feels that coop
Grafton of shippers and railroads will
assist materially in preventing seri-
Gus car shortage.
Respectfully,
Railroad Commission of Nevada.

Brief MINING NEWS OF THE DISTRICT
FOR THE PAST WEEK

Nevada D Douglas-Nortwes of the
big incline shaft on the Ludwig, out
towards the gypsum deposit, a very
fine development of chalcopyrite ore
of considerable magnitude has been
made. 1t is said to be even better
than the Casting Copper, SO far as
development has been done. 1t shows
an average of Is per cent copper.
This development is one of consider
able importance to the property, be
ing so far north and west of anything
heretofore found, and in virgin ground.
The property has always been one of
surprises, and this is but another.
We are informed that work on the
new teaching plant to be installed
will commence in few days, and that
instead of being of $50 tons capacity.
it will be of $50 tons capacity to start
with The experimental plant is said
to have demonstrated the perfect ex
traction of the metal from the ores.
Piute Falt-A. G. Spencer, leasing
on the Bovard property, has opened
two feet of fair shipping ore about
$50 feet south of the old Kaufman
shaft He is getting out shipment
which will go to the smelter in few
days.
Bugbee and associates started work
this week on their property in this
section. The ground is located about
one-eighth of mile west of the Bo-
ward property. Some very rich ore
has been found in this ground in the
past and the boys are going to try to
develop a mine.
Empire re-Nevada-Some of the leases
on the Empire Nevada ground are
looking very WELL especially the one
operated by Charley Oberg and asso-
ciates At depth of about so feet
they are taking out ore that is running
from 80 to 40 per cent copper A ship
ment of this character of ore is nearly
ready to go to the smelter The boys
are figuring on running cross-cut
from the main shaft to cut this ore
so that it can be hoisted through the
shaft instead of by windlass, as they

are now doing. This would enable
them to make better headway and
the crosscut would only be about 20
feet in length.
Greenwood Property-The Green
wood Company, owning the copper
property just east of the Nevada
Douglas, is doing considerable de-
velopment work The company is
working all the men hat can be placed
to advantage and the showing being
made is most encouraging They are
taking out ore every day, although
they have some 40 or so feet more to
run before they reach the objective
point, where they expect to enter. the
ore body opened on the 65-foot level
above. The indications are for this
ground to make fine copper property
and one that will be producing very
soon.
Montana Yer;ngton-Archer, Ehr-
illdll ana N1lIllliel, WHO have dH OptlOli
on this ground, are now working the
property themselves, after having it
bonded couple of times to different
parties. The late work done on the
property by the Mason Valley people
left a nice showing of ore in the mine
and the boys are extracting this and
preparing to ship to the smelter. They
claim to have ore enough in sight to
keep them busy for a couple of years
and the ore runs about 6 per cent,
making a nice shipping proposition for
some time to come.
East Side-The Constantine Bros.
are making good progress in sinking
the shaft on their property east OF the
Blue Jay They have what is said to
be a true hssure vein and are taking
out some mighty fine ore as the shaft
is being sunk The best part of it is
that as they gain depth the ore is get
ting better and carries greater values.
They are down at the present writing
about 135 feet. The hoisting is done
by a whim and the boys think they
have a downhill pull on big piece of
money.
