WAITED LONG FOR PROBATE
After Twenty Years Son Produces Fa.

Had Been obeyed.

Undiscovered for nearly twenty
years after his death, the will OF 10.
ham Michael Muller has been offered
for probate at Baltimore by his son.
John G. A. Muller. The testator died
March 10. 1896. having made his will
on May 81. 1889.
The paper yellow and musty with
age, left all Mr.. Muller's property to
his wife. Elizabeth Barbara Muller
She died April 30. 1915. and her son
was appointed administrator Of her
estate. He had known Of the exist.
ence of the will for several months
prior to his mothers death. but since
all the property had been enjoyed by
Mrs. Muller as her husband had de.
sired, 1t was not thought necessary
to probate the will at that time.
The son says the property will now
be divided between his two brothers
and himself, since his mother died In
testate. The exact value OF the estate
has not been determined, but 1t Is
made up almost entirely of parcels oi

COLORADO MINES BUSY
NO INCREASE IN OUTPUT EXCEPT
FOR GOLD.
Average Prices for Lead, Copper and
Zinc Add Materially to Total
Value Of Output.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Leadville. Colo.-The output of Colo
rado mines during the first six months
of 1915. according to Charles w. Hen
derson, of the United States Geologi-
cal Survey. will show no increase in
actual metal contents, except for gold.
The increase in average prices for
lead, copper, and zinc. based on the
normal production, will, however, add
greatly to the total value of the out
put, and the undoubted activity in
mining promises at least the normal
production of metals for the year 1915.
which at the exceedingly high aver
age prices at this stage Of the year,
promises greatly enhanced total pro-
duction
Colorado in the last five years
l9l0-19l5-has averaged S19,225.5 500 in
output of gold dropping from $780,
507,05 in 1908 to s1S,146,916 in 1911,
but increasing in 1914 to s19.SS3. 1859;
silver has averaged 100000 ounces;
copper, 100000 pounds; lead, 76.GO0,-
900 pounds, and zinc, 100000, 900
pounds, reaching its height in 1912,
with 132,222,s12 pounds, but dropping
to 9G,77i,960 pounds in 1914. The to-
tai value for the five metals has aver
aged s34,iS0,000. when silver ranged
from sO.53 to s0.615. copper from
S0.125 to S00.165, lead from SO.039 to
s0.0i5, and zinc (spelter) from s0.051
to $0.0G9.
Cripple Creek annually produces 60
per cent of the State yield of gold,
and in the first six months of 1915 has
proportionately exceeded the produc-
tion OF sl1,996,116 for the twelve
months of 1914. The San Juan region
has produced normally on basis of
s4,000,000 per year, and Leadville
probably has exceeded its normal gold
production because Of shipments of
siliceous gold ores from Breeze Hill
mines. while the Clear Creek-Gilpin
region has produced slightly in ex-
cess of the normal production. The
Summit County dredges have main
tanned production of about 100000
for the half year.
Little change has been made in the
yield of silver. Copper is mainly a
by-product in Colorado. but heavily in
creased shipments OF copper ore from
Rico for the six months show an in
crease of about 100000 pounds of COP
per during that time.
Lead production will increase some
what, due TO an increase In yield OF
zinc concentrates from the concen-
tration of lead.zinc ores at Red Cliff
and Breckenridge.
Zinc ores rom Colorado. during the
first six months of 1915 have shown n
small increase in tonnage. but a de
crease OF 2 or 3 per cent. In grade.
