traced for miles, not, of course, az
open cracks, for to anyone but II
close observer the rocks seem as un-
broken in most places along the
fault lines as they do in any other
part of the region.
The different faults in the region
about San Francisco are carefully
mapped in this report. Nest OF
these breaks are fortunately old and
it is to be hoped that movement
along them has ceased, but two are
alive, and along M of these Occurr
ed the movement that resulted in the
earthquake of April, 1906. These ac-
tive faults are described in the re-
port and the fact is pointed out that
although slight shocks may occur
frequently, only once in several gem
erations are serious earthquakes to
be expected. A very interesting fea-
ture of the report is the discussion
of the effect of earthquakes upon the
construction Of buildings, roads, tun-
nels, pipe lines and the like. 1t
shows that buildings constructed on
made land are much more seriously
affected than those whose fOunda-
lions rest upon rock.

DESERT p. AND M. co.
is AWARDED DECISION

Hugh H. Brown and j. II. Evans
today received news from Carson
City that Judge E. S. harrington Of
the United States district court On
Friday handed down an opinion in
the case of the Sierra Land and
Livestock company against the Des-
ert Power and Mill company, decid-
ing the EAST in favor of the defend
ant. In this action the plaintiff
sued to recover a sum in eXces OF
$1,000, the worth of a band of sheep
that were being driven across the
country and which were poisoned
by drinking cyanide water while
crossing the property of the defend
ant at Millers. The text of Judge
Farri1gton's opinion has not yet
been received in Tonopah, but it is
expected that it will determine some
vexed points of law as between the
mining and livestock industries

BULLETIN IS ISSUED
ON INCOME TAX LAW

The following income tax bulle-
tin has just been issued by the
collector Of internal revenue for
this district:
you are advised that on or be-
fore March /, 1915, a return of in
come must be filed by every individ-
ual with a net income of $4,000 or
over, by every corporation, whether
that corporation had income or not
for the year 1914. 1t is of the ut
most importance that this final date
when a return can be accepted with
put penalty be understood by the
public. The law requires that re-
turns be in the hands of the collec-
tor not later than March 1. 1t will
not be regarded as obedience to the
law. therefore, that they be mailed
on March 1; they must be mailed in
time to reach this office in the or
binary course of the mails not later
than March l.. Failure to file a re-
turn within the prescribed time will
subject the delinquent taxpayer to
an additional tax of so per cent and
liability to a penalty of not less than
$40 nor more than $1,000.
1.-The proper forms on which re-
turns must be made will be mailed
upon application, or can be obtained
from division deputy collectors at
Oakland, Sacramento. San Jose,
Fresno, Santa Rosa, Eureka, Stock
ton and Chico, California, and at
Reno, Nevada"

RECENT DISCOVERY
IN ericsson MINE

Whenever any discovery is made
in science or technology there APP
pears to be an irrepressible tendency
on the part of those who supply news
to the general public to state that
the new information upsets all pre-
vious theories. This stock phrase
may generally be put down as al ex-
aggeration and in many of its appli-
cations is wholly untrue. The
phrase is in particular favor with the
reported of mining news, to whom
the discovery of a new ore body in a
district is the signal for immediate
ly ccnsigning all previous geologic
opinion concerning that district to
the scrap heap. This prediction is
well illustrated by the press accounts
of the wonderfully rich body of ore
recently found in the Cresson mine
at Cripple Creek, at a depth of l.
200 feet. Most of these accounts
state that the find upsets all previous
theories of the geological survey. OF
/ course no such disaster has occurred
<AnyoiO viz II Int liz ioubi
to read for himself the brief chapter
of 16 pages in the surveys report or
the Cripple Creek district, published
in 1906, which sums up the geolo-
gists' conclusions on the origin oil
the pre- and the future of the dis
trict can easily ascertain that the
statements made have been confirm
ed by the mining developments OF
the last eight years. Moreover, the
occasional discovery of rich ore
bodies, even below a depth of 1000
feet, was distinctly predicted.
1t is well known that all scientif.
ic conclusions are subject to modifi-
cation in the light of new data, for
science is always progressive, but If
should be better known that press
reports of the total destruction OF
scientific conclusions by a new fact
are likely to be grossly exaggerated

Montana.
At the Montana Tonopah mine
preparations are being made to COM
mence shipments to the West END
mill and a chute is being built down
the south side of the dump to the
wagon road to facilitate the hand
ling of the ore. 1t is not the inten-
ton to make any special attempt at
| production, otherwise their own
mill would doubtless be put into
commission, but it Is figured that the
pay ore which is taken u in the
course of development is better
milled at this time than to be placed
on the dump and later rehandled.
Just when shipment to the mill will
be started has not been announced,
but it will not take very long tt.
make the necessary preparations.
The Montana has entered into an
arrangement with the Umatilla
Tonopah company whereby a consid-
cradle portion of the north end OF
the former company's ground will
be prospected thoroughly the cost to
be borne equally by the two compa-
MES. This work will consist of run
ming a drift through the Afterall and
Miriam claims of the Montana COM
pany and the Umatilla and Hons
stake claims of the Umatilla COM
pany. If there are any veins in that
section that can be made to pay, this
drift should locate them. .

MINING INTERPRETED WITH
BY WAR IN EUROPE

Some of the difficulties of mining
operations in European countries,
even in districts outside the war
zone, are reflected in the report of
the chairman of the board of the
Tanalyk corporation, who relates
that the first mobilization of the
Russian army took away the man.
ager of the mine and smelter, three
mining engineers, the chief chemist,
thirty-fve members of the office and
administrative staff, and nearly n
third of the workmen. The second
and third calls for men made a furth-
er reduction in the working force.
Fortunately, a nine months supply
of ore for the smelter was already on
the stockpile and ore reserves had
been developed much in excess of
the daily requirements, so that w
if the war should last four years the
present smelter unit can be kept in
operation. The Tanalyk has made
an excellent showing to date, and it
is pleasant to be able to record that
recent exploration indicates that
several additional valuable ore bod
les can be developed.-Mining and

At last the drift on the 1890

has been positive that the ore would

of the great ore body that was
found on the LILO level of the Mer.
ger in 1913. Those familiar with
the situation will recall that this ore
body was one of the biggest anc

Few people in viewing the bay OF
San Francisco think of it as other
than a magnificent land-locked har-
Dor about which has grown the com
mercial metropolis of the Pacific
coast. Yet this harbOr did not al
ways exist according to a report on
the geology of the region recently
published by the geological survey
for at one time through the depres-
sion now occupied by the bay ran a
great river that drained the Sacra-
mento and San Joaquin valleys. This
river probably flowed between the
Tiburon peninsula and Angel island,
and then through the gorge of the
Golden Gate, where at present the
greatest depth of water is over 400
feet. After the river valley was
formed the coast slowly sank and
the ocean entered through the Col
den Gate, flooded the valley and
formed the present bay. Thus the
valley occupied by the bay is really
not so very different from Santa
Clara and Santa Rosa valleys, and
should the Pacific coast sink a few
hundred feet lower those fertile val
leys would form great additions to
the present bay.
But the change from a river val
ley to a bay happened very slowly,
for even great earthquakes as a
rule do not move large of the
earth over a few inches and it is
likely to be thousands of years be
fore the outlines of the present bay
are greatly changed by nature.
The region is particularly inter
esting, for it is one of the newest
parts of our continent. Some OF
the rocks belong to the geologic per-
iod known as the Jurassic, but
many of them are much younger and
were laid down on the floor of the
ocean long after the Appalachian
mountains were formed. Although
these rocks are relatively young, yet
they are hundreds of thousands of
years old and have been raised ont
of the sea and tilted until in places
they stand nearly on end. n
forces which have raised these rocks
and have folded and broken them
are still active, yet their effects are
so gradually accomplished that for
the most part they are i~nappreciable
in a generation or even in several
centuries. Sometimes, however,
their effect is more apparent, as for
instance when they cause earth
quakes. Earthquakes are due to
slight movements along what geolo-
gists call faults. which are really
broken places in the earth's crust
where the rocks on n side of the
break move past those on the other
| side. Some of these tanlts may be
