CARLOAD OF ORE FROM
HAMILTON WORTH 81 1900

Unrecognized for years in spite OF
the fact that it has produced more
than half of the lead ore mined in
Nevada during the last twenty years,
Hamilton demonstrated that it's days
of productiveness have not passed

the Harwood lease on the McEllin
claim averaged $~2,O92.2S a ton, aft

Those who were interested in the
lease we're rewarded in the shape Of
$l,7S2.46 after all expenses had been
deducted. The consignment repre-
scented 63,SS0 pounds, and averaged
67.2 per cent lead and 1872 ounces
in silver. The shipment was worth

BUCKHORN MINE is
BIG ORE PRODUCEI'

E. r. Richards, manager of the
BuckhOrn mine and also manager OF
the famous Buckhorn baseball nine,
when interviewed yesterday at the
Commercial, said that the Buckhorn
mine had ore reserves practically in
sight to run the present mill for fiji
teen or twenty years.
The B%uckhorn is now working 1875
men. The ore is all worked by the
mill right on the ground. Nothing
is shipped out but gold bullion. The
Buckhorn is one of the rarest mines
in the world. This is due to the
formation. 1t is perhaps the only
gold mine where the values are
found in basalt. The country rock
is basalt and this has been mineral
lied for 100 feet in width. The ore
zone has been traced on the surface
for 1000 feet in length. The
greatest depth thus far is about 100
feet. The Buckhorn is located about
half way between Palisade and
Eureka and about 20 miles west of
Buckhorn, a station on the narrow
gauge.-ElkO Independent.

ENGLAND AFTER
GOLD OF INDIA

LONDON, July &c. = 1t is pro-
posed to make the English war loan
available for investment in India,
and thu open up the great accumu-
lation of boarded capital in that
country: India is a great reservoir
of hidden gold and silver. Vast
quantities of gold go to India from
England, but very little ever comes
out. The late Lord Rothschild, who
made a long study of Indian financ-
es, told a parliamentary committee
that not a single one of the thou
sands of smooth gold bars SEM to
India had " come back. He de-
clared that a huge amour of money
was locked up in the country which
ought to be tapped and diverted 70
useful purposes.
In recent years there has been a
considerable flow of Indian capital
into industrial enterprises and into
internal loans there, but the flow re-
mains small compared with the
actual reserves. In order to coax
these out through the medium of the
to be enabled to participate in the
British loan the people would have
simplest possible way, and the idea
would have to be explained and made
popular. The Times declares that
the only obstacle is the income tax,
for Indian investors would apparent
ly be required to pay this tax on
their loan holdings twice over-both
in India and England.

Sheriff Jim Dolan of Mono coun-

tempting to arrest four Mexicans near
Bridgeport, just across the Nevada
California line from Aurora. yester-
day morning. and died several hours
later. Although details of the trag-
edy are almost totally lacking it
seems the Mexicans made a show Of
resistance when Dolan attempted to
place them under arrest. He drew
his gun but it failed to work and
he fell fatally wounded.
The Mexicans fled in the direction
of Tioga pass, closely pursued by a
hastily organized posse. They were
surrounded this morning and in the
battle which followed two of them
were killed and the remaining two
captured. They were taken to
Bridgeport.
Frank Dolan, a brother, who re-
sides in Goldfeld, left this morning
in response to a telegram that his
brother was dying. The murdered
sheriff. who was serving his third
term. leaves a wife and little baby

NAOf1lEND YIN IL. -, July o.
Secretary of the Interior Franklin X.
Lane announced today that the pro-
duction of radium from Colorado
%carnotite ores by the bureau of
mines, in connection with the nation
al radium institute has passed the
experimental stage in its new process
and is now on a successful manu-
featuring basis. He also declared
that the statements made to congress
concerning the baility of the bureau
of mines to produce radium at a
sreatly decreased cost over other
processes had actually been accom-
less than predicted.
1.-THE cost of one gram of radium
n etal produced in the form of bro
mide during March, April and May
of the present year was $4,000, I
am informed by DR.. C. l.. Parsons,
in charge of the radium investiga-
lions of the bureau" he said. This
Includes the cost of ore, insurance,
repairs, amortization allowance for
plant and equipment, cost of bureau
of mines cooperation, and all ex-
penses incidet to the production of
high grade radium bromide. When
you consider that radium has been
selling for 100000 and 100000 a
gram, o will see just what the pu-
reau of mines has accomplished along
these lines.
1.-THE cost of producing radium in
the small experimental plant during
the first few months of the bureaus
activities was somewhat higher but
not enough to seriously affect the
final average.
"The public, however. should not
infer that this low cost of produc-
ton, necessarily means an imme-
diate drop in the selling price Of ra-
dunn. The national radium institute
was fortunate in securing through
the Crucible Steel company the right
to mine ten claims of carnotite Cres
belonging to them and this was
practically the only ore available at
the time. Since then new deposits
have been opened up but these are
closely held and according to the
best Judgment of the experts m
ploved by the bureau of mines the
Colorado and Utah fields, which are
much richer in radium bearing ores
than any others known, will supply
ore for q, few years only at the rate
of production that obtained when
the EuroDean war closed down the
mines. The demand for radium will

THE ten carnotite claims being
operated at Long Park, Colorado.
by the national radium institute have
already produced over 1916 tons of
ore averaging above two per cent
uranium oxide.
The cost of ore delivered at the
radium plant in Denver has averaged
$3.50 per ton. This included Is
per cent royalty, salary of bureau of
mines employees, amortization of the
camp and equipment and all ex-
penses incident to the mining, trans-

the ore.
"A concentration plant for low

and sampling machinery has been in

size since last February. Before
that time the plant had been run
more or less on an experimental
scale although regularly producing
radium since June, 1914. To July
1, slightly over three grams Of ra-
dunn metal had been obtained in the
form of radium barium sulfate con-
tanning over one milligram of ra-

The conversion of the sulfates into

radium therefrom is easily accom-

in France, has not been delivered OF
sufficient capacity to handle the
crystalization of the full plant pro-

half the output, or to be exact, L.
304 milligrams of radium element
have been delivered to the two hos
pitfalls connected with the national ra-
dunn institute. The radium remain
ing can be crystalized at any time
from neutral solution in apparatus
already installed, but the greater ra-
pidity and efficiency of production OF
this very valuable material by
the methods used have decided the
bureau of mines to await the COM
pletion of apparatus now beingA
built before pushing the chlorideN
crystalization to full capacity.
"The average radium extraction
of all ore mined by the national ra-
dunn institute has been over So per
cent of the amount present in the
ore as determined by actual meas
urement. The amount present in the
ore has been found in fact to be es-
sentially the same as the theoretical
amount required by the uranium
radium ratio. The extraction figures
for the last five carloads or carnO-
title treated has shown a recovery of
over 80 per CEN in each case"
A bulletin giving details of min
ing, concentration and methods OF
extraction is being prepared by the
bureau of mines and will be issued
