PRINCE CON. HAS
ISSUED REPORT

Smelling company yesterday issued
its report covering the period OF
August 16, 1918, to December 81.
1914, with a supplement report
showing the splendid production of
the first two months of 1915, or
since the property was placed on a
larger basis of operations.
The report shows cash resources
on Dec. 81 of s136,446. compared
42O dry tons worth s196,34S. To
this may be added the following, CIV
en- in the supplemental report:
From operations during January
and February, 1915, the cash re-
sources have been increased $12,-
1875. To this can be added the
amount expended for new machin-
cry and equipment, increase in
stores, etc, $~3,672.31; also an esti-
mated value of the ore in transit at
the end of that period in excess of
the ore in transit at beginning of
period. $500. This makes a gain
for the period of $~25,210.26.
In his report President A. H.
Godbe says that during this period
the market prices of lead and silver
have been the lowest ever recorded
for that length of time, "notwith-
standing which your property has
yielded a good profit and made regu-
lar daily shipments" He tells of
mill tests of a large tonnage of sill
cious ores and tailings and says:
Arrangements are being made to
continue these tests by practical mill
runs in a plant already in opera
ton, and within sixty days sufficient
data should have been obtained to
warrant the construction of a mill
plant for your property, and by util-
izing these important a
large additional income will be
derived"
The report says in part that re-
cent work has resulted in opening up
an additional large tonnage of iron
manganese ore not hitherto known
to exist. I'VE have as yet found nc
limit to this ore." it says "To the
north it has been followed and de-
veloped for 800 feet. The width is
about 240 felt. To the east it has
taken a downward course. To the
west all of the beds of ore have
been followed. There are reasons
for believing that it makes beyond
the west fault. To the south the
ore has been opened and blocked out
to the end line of the property. Suf-
ficient iron-manganese ore is now
opened and blocked to enable the
present average daily production to
be maintained for a number of years
and at present Il extraction in
creases the ore reserves greatly in
excess OF the daily shipments
Relative to the Bullionville and
Dry Valley tailings dumps. the re.
port estimates them at 12O,15S tons
at $11.S0 a ton, or $1,417,S64, from
which the profits should be SO to S.
a ton.
The total company receipts were
s205,746. and operating expenses
$119,194, leaving profits from oper.
ating, $S6,551. Expenditures fol
improvements totaled $65,975.

INTERFERENCE DENIED
Formal Note From Sir Edward
Grey Repndiates Charge of
Blocking American Ex-
ports to Neutrals
SALES CT DIV RAPIDLY
WASHINGTON. Oct 2

WAIST JUNCTION. Oct 2
Great Britain's defense OF the charge
that she Is blocking American exports to
the neutral countries OF Europe. on the
plea that the goods were destined for
Germany. while British manufacturers
have been allowed to ship their goods 70
these countries, has been made public
by Acting Secretary Of state Polk
The British note, which Ambassador
Page transmitted to the department by
mail, is dated August IA
Sir Edward Grey, head of the British
Foreign Office, prepare,d the note in reply
to a request made upon him hty Ambas-
sador Page. The request was presented
TO the Foreign ONCE at the instance OF
American Consul General Skinner who
reported to washington that Great Brit
ain had boosted her exports to these
countries not only by increasing the
amount of British production, but by re-
exporting from the United Kingdom
staples and raw materials which were be-
ing held up on the high seas when shipped
from the United States.
The note gives a series OF figures TO
show that. while British trade has in
creased, the trade of the United States
has jumped 800 per cant. with the vari-
Gus European neutralS since the war be-
gan.
The much smaller Increase in the Brit
fish exports to these countries. the noto
says, was necessltated by the fact that
the Scandinavian countries which for
merly depended upon German ports must
now rely upon England for certain classes
of supplies.
Officials at both the White House and
State Department made It very plain to-
day that the British note in no way has
changed the general situation
In connection, however. with the charge
that the British Government has sold
goods seized from Americans. without
warrant in law, the attorneys for the
packers presented evidence to the State
Department today along that line.
The argument of the packers set forth
in detail their charge that the British
prize courts, by placing the burden of
proof of innocence of shipments on the
exporter is a direct violation of all OF

The mother and children, dropping the

Mr.. Morrison returned to the car and,
