+. N. Fletcher of Reno was at the
Goldfield hotel last evening on his
return from the Keane Wonder mine
in Death Valley, where he represent
ed the former creditors of the Keanc
Wonder Mining company, to whom
the property has been transferred
under the terms of the trust deed
which was foreclosed year ago. The
transfer of the property took place
Nov 4. and ends long series OF
legal battles which have been
waged in the courts of California
and Nevada.
The Keane Wonder company was
organized in the boom days Of 1907
by Homer Wilson and T. B. Hickey,
and the property in Death Valley
WIS purchased and equipped with a
2O-stamp mill and cyanide plant. An
aerial tram, one mile in length, con-
nected the mine and mill. The mine
was located in an almost inaccessible
canyon in the Funeral range. on the
west side of Death Valley.
The equipment of the property re-
quired not only indominatable ener-
gy on the part of the manager. Mr..
Wilson, but the expenditure of large
sums of money as well. In cOnse--
quence the company became indebted
to the State Bank & Trust Co, of
which Mr.. Hickey was president. to
a considerable amount. approximat-
ing $15O,OOO, the bank holding as
security a large portion of the Keane

In October. 1907. the State Bank
& Trust Co closed it's doors. The
largest individual depositor of the
bank at the time of it's closing was
the Frances-Mchawk Mining & Leas-
ing company, which was about closing
up it's famous lease on the Mohawk
ground. from which it had taken
large sums of money. 1t had on de-

Work continues in the Merger
Mines ground, at depth of 1115
feet, and the northeast cross-cut at
this depth has progressed over 220

which marks the contact between tie

reach the contact zone at the
farther side of the depression in the
shale's surface.
When this point is reached, it is
the plan of Manager Lawrence to
prospect the contact channel by
means of drifts and raises, in the
expectation of finding the southern
branch of the Jumbo Extension ore
channel. A drift will then be ex-
tended along the contact to the
north. in the Sunflower claim, TO
seek the continuation in this
ground of the main Jumbo EXten-

Jumbo Extension workings to have a
trend directly toward the Sunflower
claim and which has now been ay-
plored up to a point less than 300
feet from the Merger boundary.

The blizzard which dashed New Eng
land Saturday worked to the eastward
yesterday over the Canadian Maritime
provinces, leaving in its wake prostrat-
ed wires and miles of snow bloc ked
highways. So far as had been learned
last night no lives were lost, although
IL men in three barges off Cape Cod
and three in a barge in Massachusetts
bay had narrow escapes from drown-
ing.
The most destructive effects Of the
storm in this section were felt in
southeastern Massachusetts, where tel
ephone and telegraph wires, heavy
with wet snow, were blown down, cut
ting off communication with points
south of Middleboro. Plymouth, Bris-
toll and Barnstable counties were GOV
cred with more than a foot of snow.
The wind reached a velocity of 50 miles
an hour at Nantucket and was only a
little less violent on Cape Cod In Bos-
ton the snow fall amounted to only
a few inches and no snow fell north OF
"a line drawn through Kineo, Me-,
Woodsvllle, n. H., and Burlington, VT
The wreck of the barges Tunnel
fridge, Coleraine and Mannheim at High
i1edu on CtlJc Goa was the chief ma
rine accident. The crews of all three
vessels were brought ashore by the
coast guard crews of High Head, High
land and Pamet river stations.
The Nahant coast guard rescued the
crew of the barge Ruth which was
driven ashore Saturday at Winthrop,
while the coast guard cutter Acushnet
rendered assistance to the crew of the
schooner George Churchman in Hyannis
harbor The coast guard cutter andre
scoggin rode out the gale east Of Cape
Cod without damage, according to a
radio report received from her yester-
day.
The snow was so heavy on the cane
that Saturday 5 afternoon train had
difficulty in getting through to Prov
incetown, and because of the wire pros.
tration, it was not until late Yesterday
that railroad officials in Boston were
able to learn of its safety.
For the first time in more than a
| quarter of a century, sleighing was en-
joyed in southern New England on
Easter day, but the wintry conditions
checked the customary display OF
finery. The snow was welcomed by
the farmers because it ended a record
ibreaking drouth of 81 days.

RETREAT OF AUSTRIANSI
ADMITTED AT VIENNA
Arrival of Russian Reinforcements
from Przemysl Gives Advantage
to Cars Generals.

LONDON, April 5.-Retreat of the
Austrian forces in the Beskid region
of the Carpathians, where some Of the
heaviest fighting has taken place IN the
struggle for control of the mountain
passes leading into Hungary, was an
nounced in Vienna yesterday at army
headquarters. The statement is as fol
lows:-
1.-The presence of large Russian rein
forcements arriving from Przemysl
compelled the Austrian army to with
draw from the Beskid region. In the
Carpathians fighting on both sides of
the Laboroza valley continues. Yes
terdav we attacked the eastern nights
and dislodged the enemy from several
strong positions. Russian attacks east
of Virawa were repulsed. In yester-
day s engagements we captured 2020
prisoners. North of Uzok pass the sit
uation is unchanged. Renewed Russian
attacks miscarried, after a short fight.
There is no news from the other
fronts'
The Beskid mountains form part of
the boundary between Hungary and
| Galicia. They are q section of the
great Carpathian range, the natural
barrier upon which Austria Hungary
relies to halt the Russian advance. On
the mountain nights and IN the passes
| fighting has been in progress all winter
Notwithstanding the SHOWS and bitter
cold. Recently the Russians have an
nounced important successes in thi:
struggle, although these claims had not
hitherto been corroborated in Vienna
The fighting in the Beskids has beer
severe recently. as is shown by the of
fetal reports. The Austrian Statement
of Saturday said it had been ascertain
cd that all the Russian divisions re
leased by the fall Of the Galicial
fortress CT Przemysl were now on tn
Carpathian front.

USED WIRE IN HANGING.
Despondent Hungarian Farm Hand
Takes His Own Life.

NEW HAVEN, Vt, April 5.-Unable
to speak the language of the country,
without friends OF his own nationality,
longing for wife and children in far
away Hungary, George Vargo, So, a
Hungarian who had been in America
less than year, committed suicide in
the barn of his employer, Hallock
Peek, Saturday morning by hanging
himself with 4 piece of wire used III
baling hay. Mr.. Peck found the body.
Vargo came to Vermont soon after
the beginning of the European war
and before working for Peck had been
employed in this town.
Nargo complained Of being i'll Satur-
day and shortly after 9 O'Clock went
to the Peck barn. When he did not re-
turn in As minutes Mr.. Peck made an
investigation and found the man S life
less body. The authorities were mott
fed and it was pronounced a case of
suicide.
The man was an industrious worker.
He worried continually about his fam
ilv which is in the war zone. Three
weeks ago he sent q sum Of money to
his wife. A son of the dead man is
fighting in the European war. AS the
man is without relatives in this coun-
trv, so far as is known, it is likely
that the town of New Haven will bury
Vargo.
