OPERATIONS At
CAMP NATIONAL

the Humboldt Star says:
The National Mines company's
output and average values of ore for
the last two months show a great
increase over any time since the
Stall lease vas operating. The COM
pany is taking out a large quantity
of high-grade ore from the new vein
recently discovered in the No. 5 tun-
mel about $50 teet from the portal.
This vein was only about one foot
wide where the tunnel cut the same.
but it has widened out to about five
feet on both sides, and large quaint
ties of high-grade and milling ore
have been taken from the same and
there is a large quantity in sight.
The company is running the mill
night and day and only stops at times
on account of the shortage of wa
ter.
The Hatch Leasing company has
acquired a new lease on the Jumbo
and Combined lodes, from the Ma
tional Consolidated Mining company.
rnis new lease is directly in line with
the large rich vein recently struck in
the National Mines company's work
ings. Many applications have been
made for leases on the National Con-
solidated property since the new
strike was made. The Hatch lease
has started to crosscut to the east
and already there is every indication
If the proximity of an orebody as
mere has been several punches of
he same quartz uncovered as that
National Mines workings. This lease
is expected to cut the rich vein as
soon as it reaches the black dyke
which can be seen ahead of them, as
this is the same dyke which makes
the footwall of the National vein.
The White Rock Leasing COM
pany's vein is showing an increase
n values as they raise. The vein is
now about five feet wide and the
quartz and tale from the same runs
high in silver and at times there are
small boulders of high-grade ore
found in the raise. The h%igh-grade
boulders are the same as the ore
from the National vein. 1t is ex-
pected that at any time this lease
will encounter the high-grade, as the
small boulders appear to be in a
drag from an orebody above.
The Charleston National Mining
company is now raising on the vein
and soon a connection will be made
with the incline shaft, known as the
X. M. incline. This will give a good
circulation and plenty of good air.
This company will then start sink
ing on the vein and will try and I'M
National is working just to the north
of and owe the end line between the
two properties.
Donald Ferguson arrived in camp
from Rebel Creek, at which place he
is interested in some very valuable
mining property. Mr.. Ferguson is
looking over the showings on Buck
skin and Charleston mountains.
F. r. OLeary, accompanied by
VIM. Bretz, returned from Rebel
Creek, at which place they have been
for the past week surveying the Ohio
group for patent.
Mr.. and Mrs. r. E. Gayer of Can
yOn creek made a visit to National
during the early part of the week.
The Kelsey brothers and the Mer-
cantile's big teams arrived from Win
nemucca loaded with supplies and
are now loading up with cOncen-
trates from the National Mines.

Chicago, III. Dec. 22.-Sale of the New York American League baseball club, the transfer to it of a half dozen players from other teams in the or ganization and the selection of a man ager from championship class AA team-aIso constituting one of the biggest deals in the history of the league-was virtually completed here today. Formal announcement of the transaction awaits the arrival in New Y ork tomorrow of Jacob Ruppert and T. L. Huston, the new owners of the Yankees. They left here late today after completing with B. B. Johnson, president of the league negotiations that began several weeks ago in New York.
 It was fntimated at the league head- quarters that only the signatures were needed to make the documents of the official announcement to this effect met, however, with refusal. Neither was there any definite word as to the identity of the new manager and play CTS for the New York team
 From other sources it was learned that Wild Bilf' Donovan, former De- ttroit pitcher and last season manager of the Providence International League team, was chosen as pilot. The play CTS involved were thought to be, Reng, Biston: High and Pipp, Detroit, and Mills, St. Louis. These men probably will be transferred for moderate cash consultations and Donovan will be giv- en a chance to figure on trades for other men after he takes hold of the rejuvenated team.
 The price for the franchise and play CTS contracts already held by the club has been given as about $42O,o00.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
MARKET DULL AND HEAVY.
United States Steel Was Leader in
 Declining Stocks.

New York, Dec. 22.-That the sup ply of securities continues in excess of the demand was again demon strated by the heavy course of today;s dull movement on the stock exchange. Many of the better known and sea- soned issues of less importance, in- cluding the low-priced coppers, were quoted at bottom figures. The weak ness in the metal group appeared to have it's basis in another secere cut in the price of the metal, due to lack of demand.
 United States Steel assumed it's old position of leader. falling in the early dealings to 4S 3-4, from which it rose frantically. only to decline again in the final hour Support of this stock was rather indifferent throughout the session and the general closing was correspondingly weak. That the steel corporation is hopeful of improved trade conditions, however, was shown by an official statement issued after the close of the market to the effect that no general reduction in the wage schedule would be made at this time, because "of some evidences of a. change for the better

MCCARTHY CONFIDENT
 OF BEATING SMITH.
Has Plenty of Faith in Himself Fol
 Battle With Gunhoat Tonight.

If confidence-quiet, deep rooted onfidence-counts for anything in the boxing arena, Tommy. McCarty, the heavyweight from Lewiston, Mont, will whip Gunboat Smith when they
 meet at the Empire Athletic club of
 Harlem tonight.
 McCarty and his manager, Henry Irslinger, have a we'll defined plan of action all nicely mapped out, and Mo- Carty believes that he will be able to follow it to successful end. A vic tory over the hard-hitting, if some what abused, man Q warsman, will be the stepping stone to many. an important match for the examiner and COW puncher.
 "I'm ready for Smith" said McCarty ready for anything and everything
 he has. never entered into match with greater confidence. I just know
 that I'm going to win. If | beat Smith I'm going to challenge Jess Willard. This stuff of matching him
 against Jack Johnson is a joke. He
 has never shown anything to entitle
 him to consideration with the cham pion. and has never whipped the cham pion, and has never whipped a good man in his life. I'd fight him tomor-
 row night instead of Smith, if it could
 be arranged. but if he'll only give me
 my chance I'll grab it.
 One thing the boxing enthusiasts may be sure Of. I'll carry the fight right up to Smith--carry it up to him so fast that he will simply have to fight. I'm not afraid of his punch
 and then, don't forget can hit pretty hard myself. I'm just as strange as
 Smith. and can box at least as we'll He will realize that he Is in the ring with a live wire from the moment the
 gong rings"
 McCarty's confidence in his own ability is noe without ground. He has
 defeated all his rivals, beginning with
 the clever Jim Savage and running
 through to the crafty Battling Levin sky. He Is a happy combinatio moi the fighting boxer. He has won the majority of his battles on aggressive ness. He is fairly clever-quite as clever as Smith-and hard two- handed hitter. He will meet the
 Gunner" ons even terms physically and is reasonably sure of winning.

JoHNsoN MAY BE TRADED.
comiskey of Chicago Willing to Pay
 Big Price For the Star TWirler.

Whether the Washington club in tends to keep Johnson, now that 1t has him back, remains to be seen. It would cause no surprise if the big Swede would be traded to some other club in the American league Com isl1ey, of Chicago, who is determined to give Chicago a winner at any cost and eliminate the Federals from the three cornered battle in that city, would no doubt be glad to pay big price for Johnson, and give Griffith a pitcher or two who would be just as much use to Washington as Johnson will under the present coqditions- It was recently reported that Grifhth said he was determined to get John son back, no matter whether the Washington fans wanted him or not, but public opinion goes a great way toward making or breaking ball player, and the Washington fans can not be expected to enthuse much over the return of Johnson.
 It is almost certain that John Mc- Graw, of the Giants, takes a different view of the question that Griffith, for he has been doing his best to unload ''Rube" MarQuard on some other club since the eccentric southpaW hoped over to the Erookfeds and back again. Marquard's days in New York are numbered. If McGraw could have in duced Pat Moran to give up Magee in a deal he had in mind, Marquard would have gone 10 the Rn1la0elpnlanS. Marquard's salary of $S,000 is going to be a bar against McGraw trading ''Rube'' to any club. It is doubtful if Marquard would be worth half this sum to any other team in organized baseball but his days of being a hero at the Polo grounds are over. The baseball fans can only see a ball play CT when he Is making good in a game and it will be pretty hard for either Johnson or Marquard to make good all the time. in the fact of what these players have done since last season closed
 As long as the Federal league com tinues to temp players to break their contracts with organized baseball, the players will probably be tempted; but every time one of them follows the tactics of Johnson and MarQuard they are dealing the game another blow. The Federals hace come out strong for honest baseball'' and against contract jumping, but the Johnson and Marquard cases appear to show that they are willing to take a chance'. Their claims that organised baseball does the same thing is no excuse. Contract break fng ie contract breaking. and wrong

WILL STICK TO
 FOUR MILE RACE
Yale Men Against Reduction of thC
 Rowing Distance.

-Bayne Denegre, captain of the Yale crew for 1914 and also leader of the boat that will clash with Harvard on the Thames river next June, has de- cIared himself to be against the pro posed reduction of the rowing dis tance from four to three miles.
 H. 4. Murray, captain of the liar yard crew, says that it has yet to be shown that the four-mile race is defi- nitely injurious to college men of sound physique and who have gone through five months of training for it.
 At Princeton there has been a strong sentiment against the four mile race. Since the revival of rowing there the Tiger crews have not indulged in anything except two mile races, but the agitation for the adoption of a three mile race for varsity crews is heartily indorsed by Princeton row ing authorities.
 c. V. P. Young, of Corneli's physi- cal department, has expressed an opinion that the longer course brings hardship to the rower. while Vivian Nickalls, coach of Pennsylvania. is equally positive that the four mile affair is most to be desired.

Pearson and Thompson Lead the Pitchers According to Official Re- cords

Boston, Mass, Dec. 22.-Charles Shorten of Worcester was the leading batsman of the New England League and Pearson, both of Lawrence, were the leading pitchers last season ac- cording to official averages which were made public tonight. The figures show that Shorten batted for ..345 in IF games. This was one point better than the record of Whitehouse, who played with Worcester and Portland teams. Shorten has signed a con- tract to play with the Boston Amsri- cans next season.
 Pearson and Thompson twirIers for the league champion Lawrence team, each won Is and lost four games. Pearson is the veteran pitcher of the league while Thompson, a left hand CT. played his first season in league baseball.
 Worcester led in club batting, its composite average being PTS and in club fielding in which it averaged 947. The team finished second in the league race. Lawrence, the tiite-winner ranked fourth in batting and third in

Case of Rube Marnuard.

Despite the assertion of President
 Robert B. Ward of the Brookfeds that he has not decided to return Rube Marquard to the Giants, there is hard ly a remote chance that the .lanky southpaw will attempt to disregard his New York contract and report at the Brookfeds' training camp. The failure of President Harry N. Hemp stead to acknowledge Mir Wards let ter in no way affects any legal rights of the Giants to Marquarc's services. The letter writing part of the con- troversy is entirely aside from the point at issue If Marquard's agree ments with MT. Hampstead personally and the New York club have any binding, force, failure to answer a let ter will not weaken it. Marquard is the only one who must worry if MT. Ward decides to prevent him from playing with the Giants. This might be accomplished by taking personal action against the pitcher for his re- cent actions. Under the conditions it
 is hardly possible to prove the Fed eral league contract binding. The Giants have all the legal documents on their side and they can force Mar quard to play with them or nowhere.
