The Goldfield news and weekly tribune. [volume] (Goldfield, Nev.) 1911-1947, 1914-07-11

The highly gratifying cOndlt1On
prevailing in the properties of the
Goldfield Consolidated Mines COM
pany is clearly reflected by the pre-
liminary estimate of the production
and earnings of the company during
the month of June, just made public
by A. H. Howe, secretary and treas
urer. According to the estimate. the
mines produced a total of 25,924
tons, from which gross extraction
of $295,00O was made. Operating
expenses amounted to $155,000, leav-
ing a net realization of $4,000.
Developments of routine character
were the rule during the week in
the various properties of the COM
pany.
Jumbo Extension
The Jumbo Extension mine is
splendidly maintaining its shipments
of ore to the Consolidated mill,
which were recently increased from
approximately eighty-six to one hun
dred tons daily. A section of ten
stamps and eleven concentrating Ia
bles in the mill are being devoted to
the reduction of Jumbo Extension
ore, and an average extraction of
eighty-five per cent is being made.
This is ten per cent better saving
than was ever made by the leased
mill at Bonnie Glare, south of Gold
field, to which the output was ship
ped for bout two years prior to the
making of the arrangement with
the Consolidated for the reduction
of the ore.
After a suspension of about ten
days, due to the caving of a small
portion of the mouth of the old
stope above the main drift on the
921-foot level of the Poleverda claim,
which became temporarily clogged,
operations upon a normal scale are
again in progress in the Velvet claim
acquired several months ago by the
Jumbo Extension from the Goldfield
Merger Mines company upon a lease
and bond arrangement. During the
last week operations have been re-
sumed upward and eastward in the
stope above the northeast drift on
the S5O-foot intermediate level in
the Velvet claim. From four to six
feet of $12 ore is being extracted in
the stopping operations. The output
of the stope is being handled through
the raise from the 921-foot level east
drit, into the Velvet claim, which is
1O4 feet below the intermediate
drift on the dip of tire vein. Cross
cutting from the footwall streak to
the hal ging wall streak of the vci1
has been resumed from the 921-foot
level drift. When the hanging wall
of the vein is reached, drifting east
on the vein will be resumed.
Work is being prosecuted on four
faces of good ore from the new stope
above the 97-foot raise from the
east crosscut off the main southeast
crosscut on the 1,017-foot level. Six
feet of $50 ore is being broken down
from the face of the northeast drift
recently started from the raise re-
ferred to at point about fifteen
feet below the floor of the stope.
The drift will be continued along the
shale footwall. with occasional cross
cuts to the hanging wall to keep tab
upon the ore development.

the property of the Silver Pick Con-
solidated Mines company are being
prosecuted upon a larger scale at
present than at any time since the
early days of Goldfield. General
Superintendent Walter s. Norris ex-
presses himself as much encouraged
/ with the conditions prevailing in the
property and the rapid rate at which
development work is being carried

Two raises designed to intersect
the big vein from foot to hanging

SEEKS TO AMEND AUTO LAW.
R. NJ. a. Asks Licenses for Owners
Instead of Operators.

H. L. Roe, Maryland automobile com
missioner, has been asked by the Retail
Merchants Association to have the
Maryland automobile license law amend
ed to the extent that licenses may be
granted to owners instead of operators
of trucks and pleasure vehicles.
Claude E Miller, chairman of the au-
tomobile section of the Retail Merchants
Association, yesterday addressed a letter
to Commissioner Roe as follows:
AT the request OF members of the Re-
tail Merchants Association the board of
governors Of the association directs me
to request that during the present ses-
sion of the Maryland legislature the au-
tomobile license law be repealed to the
extent of issuing licenses to owners
rather than operators of trucks and pas
senger cars Washingtonians who use
the Maryland roads find it a hardship
to pay an additional 81 every time a new
chauffeur is taken on, and we feel that
there is quite a sufficient reason why the
automobile license law should be amend
ed to this extent.
We are reminded that the time is
short before the close of the present
session of the Maryland legislature, but
this is such an important matter that 1t
is hoped the time will be found to have
this suggested amendment made law"

Want State Highway Boards.

One Of the principal results hoped for
by the management of the congress will
be the establishment of state highway
departments in the six southern states
which have thus far failed to adopt the
plan Of state supervision, namely. Georgia,
South Carolina. Florida. Tennessee, Mis-
sissippi and Texas. Aside from these
six states only Indiana and Montana have
failed to establish state highway depart
ments for educational or constructive
work.
The 1913 American Road Congress
was held in Detroit, Mich, with an at
tendance of about 1000 representing
forty-four states and with vast array of
exhibits in which the United States gov
ernment, many of the states. educational
institutions and over 100 manufacturers
participated. This year it is expected
that the congress will have an attendance
well over 5000. and in preparation for

of Charles p. Light, business manager.

"-At the present time the electric truck
is used in more than 10 different lines
of trade. in forty-one of the forty-eight

the world and the faithful, efficient cleo
tric is doing yeoman service in Canada,

Turkey. Siam and Australia. From the
engineering standpoint it is conceded that
the electric is setting the pace in sim
plicity Of design and operation. Electric
trucks are cutting costs where hills are
unknown, as well as in such hilly cen
ters as Pittsburgh, Cincinnati. Kansas
City and San Francisco. 1t is for these
reasons Of economy and efficiency that The
electric Is favored by public opinion as
the ideal vehicle for city and suburban
haulage.
There have been great Developments
in the electric vehicle. There is no one
here who would have thought fifteen years
