STRIKE AT PIONEER is
SAID TO BE A GOOD ONE

The recent strike in the Yellow
Jacket ground at Pioneer is show
ing itself up to be a lead of no
small value. Development work un-
dertaken upon it tends to show per-
lnanency with every added foot OF
depth and the values are rising in a
gratifying manner
]. d. O'Brien, manager of the
proper y, is working W. men upon
the scene of discovery and a depth
If close to fifty feet has been at
tanned. At the surface good pam
nings could be had and at the present
depth a string is left in the pan that
rocks well for the contact that will
be encountered at depth, when the
bodies of exposed ore will join at the
fault.
Since the strike, the Yellow Jack
ct ground has been prospected thor
oughly and the management is more
than ever convinced that the three
veins which have been prospec- ed at
depth and shown to be cOnverging at
a point in the immediate vicinity Of
the fault will be picked up on the
shaft now going down and will also
form a body of ore of no small ex-
tent-Carrara Obelisk.

COMSTOCK MINING MEN
OBJECT TO LEGISLATION

Local mining officials and sup
erintendents are protesting against
the passage of the measure that
went through the state senate this
week and is now before the assem-
bly,, where it is in committee, which
apparently provides that a tempera-
ture of IS degrees shall be MAIN
tanned in all mines. Steps have been
taken to show how disastrous such
a law would be to the mining inter-
ests of Virginia City and Gold Hill
where hot water has to be contend
perature is very warm at some points
he general working conditions are
not over severe AS is we'll known
in the worst points, where it is nee
essary often to repair airways, make
installations. etc., work is carried on
in passes.
The air generally in the Comstock
mines is good, although warm, but
to establish an average of S5 de-
grees in all properties and or all
levels, would be a physical impossi-
bility. Every known device is here
to maintain the ventilation at a high
point of efficiency and to protect
the interests of the miners. If a law
of this character prevails, it would
not only work a great hardship here
but it is probable that more than
one-half of the mines of the state
would have to shut down. especial
ly those doing deep mining. For
half a century the Comstock has bat
tied successfully with hot water and
high temperatures and has enriched
the world by three-quarters of a bill
lion dollars.-Virginia Chronicle.

PARI-MUTUEL BETTING
LEGALIZED IN ARIZONA

PHOENIG, Ariz., March 10.-A
bill to permit horse racing in Ari-
IONA and the pari-mutuel system of
betting was favorably acted on in the
lower house of the legislature, sit
ting as a committee of the whole,
yesterday. The vote was 20 to 8.
The bill has passed the senate.
The governor has expressed no
opinion regarding his attitude on the
racing bill, but the fact that his
strongest supporters in the legisla-
ture were it's foremost advocates,
leaves no doubt of his approval. The
bill will probably go to the governor
today.

SHEEP ROCK TO BUILD
1OO-TON MILL SOON

While the Sheep Rock, in eastern
Beaver county, has been worked only
in a limited way for several years
past, making small shipments of high
grade from the rich streak which
has been followed to the 300 level,
and selling small gold bars from the
title mill on North creek, yet it is
the expectation that the coming sum-
mer will witness the construction of
a 100-ton plant, according to A. B.
Bloney, as quoted in the Milford
Times.
Tom Clary and Tom MORRISON
have taken a lease on the Nellis
group and are taking out some high
grade ore and expect to make a
shipment in the near future. Both
are old time miners in the tar dis
trict, and feel confident that they
can make far better than wages.
Mayor John F. Kelly came down
from Shauntie the first of the week
and says it is the intention to put
on a force of men at the Magnolia
within the next few weeks and ex-
poets to be shipping ore within a
short time. Mayor Kelly has shown
his faith in this property by stick
ing to it for owe thirty years and
still believes he has a bonanza.

TNOPAH MERGER

Manager Kirchen reports this
morning that quite a material i'm
provement has taken place in the
west 1880 drift of the Merger mine.
No details are yet given out. He
also reports the water in the Victor
as lowered to 1853 feet above the
1910 point, where the pumps are
stationed. At the rate of unwater-
ing it will require about two weeks
to reach the Cash Boy level, which
will permit that company to resume
sinking. 1t is planned to do extern
sive work in the Victor as soon as
it is free of water. At present 1t is
draining a number of properties in
the vicinity.-BOnanZa.

HARMON, THE DREDGE KING,
is IN BATTLE MOUNTAIN

w. P. Harmon, the gold dredge
king Of California. has during the
past week again been in Battle
Mountain and spent more time look
ing yer the placers and copper
grounds, says the Scout. That he
was satisfied with what he saw is
evinced by the fact that he has in
vested a large sum of money for
himself and associates in the syndi-
date which is operating the proper
ties now being developed in Copper
basin.
The advent into this mining dis
trict of a man of such financial
strength means much to Battle

finn IS
AGAIN FREE Man
JURY IN SECOND TRIAL Is UN-
ABLE TO AGREE UPON
VERDICT

After spending a year, lacking
twenty days, in the county jail, Fat
rick j. Finn, accused of the murder
of Postmaster Thomas Jones of Ida
in that town on Sunday, March 22,
1914, is again a free man. The
Jurors in his second trial having
failed to agree, standing seven to
five for acquittal on the final bal
lot, Finn was discharged from GUS
tooy Saturday noon by Judge Duck
err of Humboldt county, presiding in
the local district court, upon the mo-
ton of District Attorney M. A. Dis
kin, who, with his deputy, Roger
Foley, conducted the prosecution.
At the conclusion Of the final ar
gument by District Attorney Diskin
the case was given to the jury at
$3.50 in the evening. Amout a hall
hour later the jurors requested GER
tain exhibits used by the state in the
presentation of the case. These
were supplied and at midnight the
Jury reported that a verdict had not
been reached. The jurors were lock-
ed up for the night and at
noon reported to the court that
there was no possibility of their
reaching a erdict. They an
nounced that they stood even to
five for acquittal, which was the ex-
act reverse of the standing of the
| Jury on the final vote in the first
trial.
Upon the discharge of the jury by
the court, District Attorney Diskin
arose and made a motion that the
charge against Finn be dismissed
and the prisoner released. The u
Immediately granted the motion and
Finn left the court room in COM
pany with his wife. District Attor-
ney Diskin explained in making his
motion that in Firms first trial the
jury stood sever to five for conv1c-
ton, and for that reason he believed
it his duty to place the prisoner on
trial a second time. A majority or
the Jurors in the second trial having
voted for acquittal, District Attorney
Diskin explained that he thought it
unwise to again try Finn. 1t was
learned that in all the jurors ballot
ed eleven times. At one time the
vote stood six to six and at another
time eight to four for acquittal.
Finn made no comment when set at
liberty. Going to the Jail he obtain
ed his belongings from the cell which,
he had occupied since March 2G II
last year.. After shaking HANDS,
with Deputy Sheriffs Bogard and
Mercer and bidding them goodbye,
Finn departed with his wife. In the
first trial Finn was defended by At
torneys j. Emmett Walsh and Mil
ton M. Detch, the former of whom is
at present judge of the district
court. In the second trial, Attorney
Augustus J.. Tilden was associated
with Mr.. Detch in conducting the
defense.
