PHOSPHATE DISCOVERY
At MtLROSE, MONTANA

rAe discovery Of rock phosphate
at Melrose. Mont. by II. S. Gaze of
the United States geological survey,
in October 1910, suggested tn
strong possibility of it's occurrence
in the western part of the state. In
1911 rock phosphate was discovered
by j. T.. Pardee, of the survey at
three localities in western Montana,
in the Garnet range six miles north
of Garrison at Philipsburgs. and half
a mile east of Elliston. A detailed
examination of the phosphate field
at Elliston was begun in 1918 by
r.. w. Stone and G.. BONNIE and their
report has just been published by the
geological survey as bulletin 5S0N.
The phosphate in the south half of
the Elliston field is within two miles
of the Northern Pacific railway and
readily accessible to it. The farth-
est point in the northern part of the
field is between six and seven miles
from the railway by way of Dog creek
valley, down which there is. an easy
grade. In the south half of the Ell
liston field the phosphate bed stands
nearly vertical along about 2 miles
of its outcrop, but near Elliston 1t
is so faulted that an estimate of the
area underlain by it IS difficult. On
the assumption however hat this
part of the field contains the equiv
alent of three miles of o~utcropping
bed that could be mined to a depth
of half a mile there is in the south
half of the field half a square mile
underlain by phosphate and as he
few measurements in this part of the
field suggest an average thickness of
our feet, it is estimated that at
least 15,2O3, O9S tom of phosphate
rock is present in the south half,
while in the northern half there is
an estimated deposit of 10000, 900
tons of rock.
These deposits have not yet been
developed, owing to the regency OF
their discovery and to the lack of
markets sufficiently near to justify
mining and reduction. The demand
for fortified products in the western
states is not large owing to the lack
of intense cultivation and the new
ness of the lands; but there is a
growing tendency to use fortified
where the land is farmed extensively
especially in the middle west. The
western phosphate deposits are ia
vorably situated to meet a demand
from this section of the country and
will doubtless be utilized in the fu-
ture.

gical survey, Washington, d. c.

RARE METALS FOUND IN
GOODSPRINGS PROPERTIES

Platinum and palladium have been
found in ores in payable quantities
in the G~oodsprings district. This
district thus far has been considered
essentially a zinc district with by
products of copper and gold and 1T Is
now found that the ores carry plati-
mum and palladium, n dump alone
having been estimated to have upon
it $4,000 to $4,000 of these rare
metals, hitherto believed to be only
waste or refuse from former ship
ments. In consequence, the sur
rounding territory, in true NeVada
style has been staked off into claims
in every direction for a distance OF
- r,iles. These rare metals are
found in both the placer and lode
formations, the placers evidently be-
ing formed by the erosion OF the
lodes as in the case of placer gold.
Thus far the principal mine Is the
Boss. which has recently been pur-
chased by Los Angeles, San Francis
CO and Sacramento parties for $780,
600 from S. E. Yount, of Los Angel
&c. A recent shipment of 20 tons
from the Boss mine to the American
Smelling and Refining company at
Murray. Utah. showed a total gross
value of $4,000 in platinum and pail
ladium. The occurrence Of these
rare metals is in one of the best dis
tricts of Nevada and much is expect
ed of it in consequence Of these re-
cent discoveries of platinum and pail
lidium in payable quantities.-Cor-
resemblance in Mining World.

PRINCE CON. INCREASES
IT'S SHIPMENTS OF ORE

The Prince Con. Mining company
has been quietly increasing the ore
shipments as evidenced by the num-
Der of cars shipped every week; each
week showing a little bigger tor
mage, and from a tonnage of about
200 tons, a year ago, it has in
creased to practically 400 tons per
day, and this is to be increased to
500 tons. The development of the
ore bodies has kept ahead of the eX-
traction to such an extent that the
ore reserves now developed are
such that with it's present ore
shipments maintained, the life OF
the mine has many years ahead of 1t.
The ore shipments for the wee
ending Feb. II, were as follows:
Prince Con-, So cars; Amalgamated
Phoebe, 2 cars; Tom McCormac
lease, 1 car.-Pioche Record.

RESUME OF WEEKS OPERATIONS
IN Mines OF COMSTOCK LODE

the $500 station was completed;
also tagging the three collar sets;
concrete foundations we're put in
for the large winches. The water
was held at all points.
The Yellow Jacket was able to
operate for one day only the past
week on account of the storm and
is still shut down, 315 tons of dump
rock being placed in the mill bins,
and n bar of bullion shipped to
the smelter. Important develop
ments continue underground on the
1900 level, and the outlook there
continues to be very encouraging.
From the north drift No. 1 started
at a point 10 feet in east crosscut
No. /, 1872 ears of ore were saved.
This drift was advanced IL feet and
timbered with square sets prepare
15S feet in length. At a point 1876
feet in north drift No. /, raise No
8 has been started, and from the
first floor 1877 cars of ore were taken
out. On the last day of the week,
at a point 95 feet in north drift No.
/, a west crosscut was advanced six
feet to prospect the vein in that di-
rection. Much interest attaches to
this development work, for the ore
is being opened in a large area of
what the record shows is UNEMPLOYED
ground, and is considered a good
prospect.
On the 400 level of the Crown
Point mine, repairs were made to
the Sutro tunnel connection, and to
south drift No. /.
The Belcher company continues to
reopen the south compartment of the
joint incline, making "a feet below
the 400 station in good repair
Waste taken from this level is stOr-
ed in raise No. l.. The incline has
been found to be open to 1900 level
where another ave blocks the way
but will be driven through as 500
as possible to ascertain the condi.
ton on the 1900 level. Repairs
were made to north drift No. 1 on
the 400 level, and repairs made un-
der the 400 station of the Belche1
incline.
The Overman company on the
1900 level, extended the south drift
on the vein for nine feet to the 60
foot point, with the face in porphyry
and quartz. This drift was started
from the east crosscut, 200 fee
north of the south boundary line.
On the 200 level of the Confidence
Challenge Imperial shaft, the south
drift from the east crosscut is all il
low grade quartz, having been ad
vanced IL feet to the 23 foot poin'
the past week.
The Caledonia company on the l.,
900 level during the week advanced
the north drift from the west cross
cut for a distance of II feet; tOta
length SO feet. The face is all il
quartz, and the vein continues tt
show a fine with, with promising
conditions prevailing. - Virginia

GIOGA SOLVES MYSTERY
OF II. & q. ROBBERY

When James Gioga pulled his ar
tillery on the men who were in the
act of backing his machine out of his
garage Saturday morning. he didn't
dream that he had solved the mys-
FERROUS robbery of the 7. & G.. meat
market of the same night. But that
was what he did. The sheriff Of
fee claims to have conclusive evil
dence that Dyer, the mar thai Gioga
caught stealing his automobile, n
Harry Rives, Dyer's partner, who
was picked UP yesterday by Deputy
Sheriff Shirley, are the men who
broke into the market and rifled the
till. The Southern Nevada grocery
store, next door to the meat market,
was also entered, but nothing was
taken.

TONOPAH MINING co. NOW CONTROLS PANAMA:
WEEKS OUTPUT OF MINES SHOWS INCREASE

nv Aohopoh DAtChoAOh bAAhCs AS
Murray vein has an almost due east
aud west strike, with a dip of about
2S or 80 degrees to the north. The
hanging wall is a soft altered West
End rhyolite and this is the condi-
lion of the vein in the Monarch.
Thus far the values have been
very low, but all things being equal
rich sulphides may be encountered
in the blasting of almost any round.
Should this event come to pass, 1t
would add untold wealth to the
western zone of the Tonopah district.
End Tonopah, Seventy-six and the
West Tonopah would very likely re-
sumo operations, thereby giving en-
ployment to many miners.
The Midway
The preparation for the resump-
ton of active mining operations on
company account at the Tonopah
Midway, which are going forward
under the direction of Manager w.
]. Douglas, are making good prog
ress and it will not be long until
there is something doing that will
count. A new cable is coming and
when that arrives it is probable that
everything will be in readiness for
mining development to begin.
When everything is in readiess
it is the intention to start two shifts
to the sinking of the shaft from the
120O-foot leve. When the 1900 foot
point is reached a station will be
cut, after which the shaft will prob
ably be continued to the 400 foot
poit, where another station will be
cut.
1t is expected that the vein which
was cut at a point 20 feet south OF
the shaft on the 1900 level will again
be encountered at about the 1900
foot point in the shaft, if it main
tains the same pitch as where first
opened up. Another vein was also
encountered further in the crosscut
at the 1900 level and it is expected
hat this will be again opened up al
about the 140O-foot point in the
shaft.
Tonopah Merger
The west drift on the 1880 leve,
of the Tonopah Merger mine encoun-
tered a fault during the week which
has displaced the vein a matter of &c
feet. 1t is a north and south fault
and it threw the vein to the north
A crosscut to pick up the faulted
segment was Immediately started
and the face shows that they are j.
breaking into it and will soon be ir
ore again at this point which is
about 800 feet west of the shaft.
The Tonopah district has consid.
cradle faulting and this western sec.
ton has not as yet been as thor
oughly developed as the center oil
the district and the faulting is there
fore not as well solved. But it is
safe to say that it will be as devel.
opment proceeds.
A new crosscut to the east has
been started from the bottom Of
the incline shaft on the 1230-foot
level which it is expected will pick
up the vein within ten days or two
weeks-Tonopah Miner.

ROCHESTER, RAILROAD
OPERATING IN CANYON

A recent report from Rochester
says that the Nevada Short Line rail-
road, better known as the COdd line,
is completed from Nenzel, formerly
called Oreana, on the Southern Pa
cific, to the mill, a distance OF nine
miles. The road follows the can
yon and has to climb nearly 1000
feet. From the mill the road Will
make several switch-backs to get up
to the ore bins now being built to
receive the ore from the three big
leasing companies on Nenzel hill.
These three companies, the Codd,
Big -Four and the Four is, have a
common level connecting their low
est workings, and from this level a
tunnel opening is nearly completed
through which to take the ore. From
this tunnel a surface gravity tram
way will deliver the ore into bins at
the end of the railroad.

The Tonopah Extension mill
treated 1901 tons of ore from the
mine during the month of January.
This is an average of 232 tons a
dav which is not quite up to the
exrectations of the enlarged mill,
and the shortage is doubtless due to
the filters not being up to capacity.
AS has been stated in a previous Is
sue of the Miner. the filterlng ca
pacity will Dol be increased ana
then the mill will doubtless turn out
$50 tons or better per day.

NO EVIDENCE TO
BEAR OUT CLAIM
GERMANS DENY RESPONSIBILITY
FOR ATTACK ON LINER
HEsPERIAN.

Washington, D. c., Sept. 15.-state
department officials, commenting to.
day on the disclaimer of the Berlin
government that the Canadian liner
Hesperian was torpedoed, said that in
sufficient evidence had been received
on Which to base representations to
Germany at this time. From the
facts at hand, it was said, no opinion
could be formed as to whether the
Hesperian was torpedoed or struck by
a mine
If it should be determined that the
Hesperian struck a mine. officials say
there would be no means of fixing re-
sponsibility for placing the mine.
Diplomatic negotiations In the Arab
ic case were in apparent lull today and
Count Won Bernstorff, the German am
bassador, had returned to the summer
embassy at Cedarhurst, l.. l., to await
word from his government regarding
the evidence in possession of the Unit
ed States concerning the sinking Of
the vessel 1t probably will be week
or ten days before there is any re-
sponse from Germany. Some officials
believe that examination of this evi-
dence will cause the German govern
ment to modify its views on the sub
ject.
No word has come from Ambassador

SOlDeS Problem
of Holding object
MOtiOnle5S in Air

Paris, Sept. 15.-An> Italian en-
gineer, Louis Rota, has solved the
problem of holding an object mo-
tionless in space, according to the
Marseilles correspondent of the
Petit Parisien. Rota is credited
with having constructed an appa-
ratus which, by the action of cleo
tric currents, can be elevated to a
height of from 1000 to 5000 feet
and kept motionless, or propelled
in any direction at speed of
more than 100 miles an hour,
Rota's apparatus is spindle
shaped, twelve feet long and two
feet in diameter and can carry
weight of ninety pounds. 1t is
said to remain motionless in
wind of considerable velocity but
if the wind becomes very strong
it rises automatically until it
reaches calmer region of the
air. The invention is based on re-
actions obtained from the electro
magnetic forces of the atmos-
phere.
