Mr.. Tribble Makes
Charges Against
Cotton Exchange

WASHINGTON. Dec. 7-Congressional
investigation of the New York Cotton ex-
change and it's method of dealing with the
present cotton situation was asked in a
resolution today by Representative Trib-
BILE of Georgia.
Representative Tribble explained his
resolution i'm this statement:
'When the Cotton exchange opened the
price of cotton was exceedingly low, and
yet the New York Cotton exchange ham
mered down the price 1 cent per pound
almost Immediately. This was a fair
test of the methods OF the exchanges.
The exchange was closed and opened on
q low market. and yet the opening of the
exchange cost the farmers of the south
millions of dollars. II secure an investi-
cation and the facts can be brought out
this investigation will in all probability
bring about prosecution of those guilty
of Fleeing the farmers of their we'll
earned profits and may result in the
total adjustment of the exchanges"

Friedman of the semi-annual report
ending June 80, showing returns OF
$~G4,396.15; cash in bank of $22,15G
and a prediction of the management
that the July production will reach
$4,000. The statement says the
slopes above the 1900 north and
south of the winze are making a
most prolific yield. The width of all
the streaks is fourteen inches, and
the ore (from an average of ninety
one samples) assays $3.50.
Lower grade pres from the Slopes
above the 1850 north and the foot
wall vein, 1850 south. reduced the
average of the ores milled to $133.4S
a ton.
The mine produced 495 tons of ore
averaging $133.S5, or $66,340.66.
The extraction by a~malgamation was
STAB per cent; by concentration,
Gel per cent; a total of 94.04 per
cent. The loss in tailings was 51.96
per cent. or $3945.9O.-Herald Re-

TUlE CANYON WATERS
NOW UNDER CONTROL

Campbell & Kelley, the local foun-
drymen, have found a way to bring
the bubbling waters of Tule canyon
under control SO they may be han
died economically by the placer min
ers of that district. The expedient
they adopted is nothing more than
hitching an automobile to the pumps
and letting the machine go On gal
Looping around as if it were entered
flor the Vanderbilt cup on a brick
track.
By this device the pumps are made
to handle 500 gallons a minute, or
Enough to keep the shaft clear so as
to permit the n to extract the
rich gravel at the bottom. Tule can
lyon has always been famous for its
placer beds, but, owing to the re-
moteness of the district and the high
price of freighting, gasoline engines
have proved an expensive adjunct.
The owners of this particular placer
include the foundry prOprietors, Lee
Hand, S. Floathe, w. ROystOn, Geo.
|Steadman and Thomas Farrell. Be-
tween them they own a Ford run
about and this has been Impressed

was surprising, especially in view of
the fact hat a ten h. p. gasoline en-
CINE had failed to make good. The
distance to bedrock is 35 feet, and
with the aid of the Ford there is no
trouble in holding the water under
control. The boys have 400 acres

SHIPPING ORE TO MILL


Continued from Page One.J
handle the shipping grade ore as well
as it does the milling rock, and for
that reason practically the entire
production of the mine is being treat
ed there.
Speaking Of the extraction being
made by the Consolidated mill, Cen
eral Manager j. X. Turner of the
Jumbo Extension said:
I'VE are certainly pleased with
the saving that is being made by
the plant on our ore. Although it
may seem strange, it is nevertheless
a fact that the Consolidated mill Is
making a better percentage of extrac-
tion on the higher grade ore than on
the lower valued product. However,
the saving on the latter is highly sat
isfactory. 1t seems that the higher
the grade of ore the better the ex-
traction. Some days the extraction
runs as high as n~inety-one per cent,
but the average is around eighty-five.
Considering the greater cost of send
ing the shipping ore to the shelters
and high extraction being made by
the Consolidated mill, we find 1t to
our advantage to ship practically our
entire output to the local plant. Our
ore is at present concentrating about
twelve into one."
Underground conditions in both
the old Poloverde workings and the
Velvet claim acquired several
months ago by the Jumbo Extension
from the Goldfield Merger Mines
company, continue highly pleasing.
In the latter claim above the S5O-foot
intermediate level northeast drift,
stopping is in progress on from six to
seven feet of SIS ore for a length of
about forty feet. Above the 921-foot
level east drift into the Velvet, work
is being vigorously prosecuted in two
raises, fifty and one hundred feet
from the line of the Poleverda claim
line, on seven to eight feet Of SIS
ore. The raises are being advanced
toward each other and when a con-
nection is made extensive stopping op-
erations will follow. Crosscutting
continues from the drift to reveal
the hanging wall streak of ore in the
big vein.
North of the old Mammoth stope
above the 921-foot level in the Pole
verda claim, a new stope has been
started on from six to eve feet of
SIC ore. At a point about twenty
feet below the floor of the new stope
above the 97-foot raise from the east
crosscut from the main southeast
crosscut on the 1O17-foot level, drift
ing is in progress along the shale
footwall of the vein to the north
east into the Velvet claim and to
the southwest into virgin territory
of the Poleverda claim. In the drift
toward the Velvet there is exposed
five feet of $3.50 ore, while seven
feet of ore in the face of the south
west drift yields assay returns of
1882 a ton.

A special to the Reno Gazette from
Aurora says:
The new mill of the Aurora Con-
solidated is now running and 15
stamps are pounding away al the ore
The mill will be running at is full
capacity in a few days.
General Manager Burch, who will
have full charge of the mines and mill
at this place, arrived here Tuesday to
take up his duties.
There were 220 men upon the pay
roll during the month of June. The
force will be augmented this month.
1t is understood hat the company
will at once begin the construction OF
80 new cottages near the mill for the
use of the employees.
Plans are being made for the con-
struction of a custom mill near town.
1t will be a stock company. 1t will
fill a long felt want, inasmuch as the
many leasers canont ship their low
grade ores. With the mill assured,
many new leases will be let.
John Erickson is operating a lease
on the Martinez claim and is getting
some very good milling ore. In many
places he has encountered shipping
ore.
