COURT SUSTA|NS
DEMURRER MADE
CASE OF WEST END VS..
JIM BUTLER
JUDGE AvERILL ENTERS RULING
IN u4TIGATioN BETWEEN
MINING COMPANIES

In the case of the West End Consol-
idated Mining company versus the
Jim Butler Tonopah Mining company,
Judge Averill entered the following
ruling on demurrer to answer:
The demurrer to the answer herein
calls attention to the alternative
pleading in the answer to these
words: whether said vein has no
apex within said mining claim. or
whether said vein has an apex within
said West END mining claim" Alter
native pleading is allowable but not
encouraged. Ii is not very serious
fault and one which should not be
taken advantage of to deprive the
opposite party of right; but under
our system this danger is remote. II
would be better to redraft the plead
ing and avoid it, together with what.
ever uncertainty there may be in the
answer concerning the lines crossed
by the Fraction vein.
The demurrer is sustained, and the
defendant is allowed fifteen days fol-
amendment.
The ground OF the demurrer that
the answer does not state facts SUI
fcient to constitute defense is over
ruled, with the reservation that this
ground is not finally passed upon, bu
can be better disposed of when thu
answer is redrawn, if then it becomes
necessary to pass upon it in the even
the new answer should be demurre'
4 to for that reason.

COUNTIES TURN MONEY
INTO STATE TREASURY
SETTLEMENT BEING MADE OF
SECOND lNsTALLMENT OF
TAXES

A few days ago it was stated that
The state treasury was practically de-
pleted owing to the fact that so much
of the second installment of taxes
was tied up by reason of litigation d.
rected at the state tax commission
Within the past few days, however,
there has come a material change in
the situation and the counties are
turning in taxes in a gratifying man
ner. 1t is true that there are consid-
cradle sums tied up by reason of suit 5
instituted by large property owners
who claim an excessive valuation Of
their holdings, especially in lands, but
1t seems highly probable that all thes ,
differences will be adjusted shortly
by compromises Here is the list of
counties so far reporting, with the
amounts turned into the state treas

RAIDROAD BUYING MAY
PROLONG STEEL REVIVAL

The First National bank Of Boston,
in circular just issued, calls atten-
ton to the fact that the iron and steel
industry is beginning to run behind
on deliveries, and that it takes a year
or two to make general increase
in steel-making capacity, adding:
ut is even limited that famine in
; steel will develop in 1916 if the pres
ent trend continues. Moreover, it is
pointed out that the railroads have
not been in the market for equip
ment since 1906; and that they will
be driven in by the existing activity
and this time for heavier equipment
than has ever been known. For ex-
ample, the Pennsylvania is ordering
lao, 000-pound 'Dreadnaught' freight
car-the heaviest ever constructed
which will necessitate either all steel
wheels or a six wheel truck, and may
ultimately lead to a heavier rail,
heavier trestle and freer use of heavier
steel throughout. Buying of this
character by the railroads might pro-
long the revival in steel over years"

are quoting even 1.50c.
Structural rivets are being held at

FRENCH AND DUTCH
INQUIRE FOR STEEL

NEW YORK, Sept. 30.-A liberal
number Of new inquiries for pig iron
for export have been coming out in
this district the past several days,
and these aggregate about $4,000 tons.
France is the principal inquirer and
alone has about 10000 tons of steel
making iron in the market. These
inquiries include new lot of 5000
tons of bessemer, in addition to- in
quiries of 1900 tons and 1000 tons
Of that grade previously reported. It
now is learned that a 3,000-ton in
quiry for bessemer iron, upon which
prices are asked for alongside the
steamer at eastern ports, also is for
France. Inquiries are current for two
lots .aggregating 1900 tons of steel
making iron for shipment to Rotter-
dam. Another lot Of 1000 tons for
shipment to a European country,
which hitherto has not figured as a
buyer, is out.
The Pennsylvania railroad has is
sued new inquiry for 1000 tons of

TO BE
MlDVALE HEAD
General Belief in Steel Trade
Circles-Reported Associated
With Percy Rockefeller.

NEW YORK, Sept; .Se:-William
Ellis Corey, former president of the
United States Steel corporation, is
generally understood to be contem-
plating becoming again an active
factor in the iron and steel industry
as the result of the purchase Of the
| Midvale Steel Co., Philadelphia, by a
| syndicate of New York capitalists. AS
ISOLATED with Mr.. Corey are Percy
Rockefeller, son Of William Rocker
Teller; E. C. Converse, a prominent
New York banker, former president of
! the National Tube Co. and at present
a director of the United States Steel
corporation, and others. The purchase
of the Midvale Steel Co. stock from
the Harrah-Sullivan interests was ar
ranged through the house of William
A. Read & Co., New York.
Gives Birth to Rumors.
! The change in control Of the Midvale
Steel Co. has been the signal for a
renewed crop Of rumors that it is the
precursor of giant new steel works
combination to include various eastern
steel companies including the Cambria,
Pennsylvania and Bethlehem companies
and other works not directly identified
with the steel trade. It generally is
believed in well-informed steel circles
that the purchase of the Midvale COM
pany is a separate proposition to en-
gage IN a more extensive manufac-
ture of munitions than heretofore has
been done at this plant. The Midvale
works is especially we'll fitted for this
line OF production but the domestic in
terests previously have not been in
cllned to accept war contracts from
foreign countries, although they have
freely made supplies of this kind for
the United States government.
Corey to be Active Head.
MIR. Corey, who is said to be slated
for the active head Of the reorganized
company, has not been active in the
steel industry for several years. He
resigned as president of the Steel cor
poration in January, 1911, and as
director of the corporation in 1913,
Since that time he has devoted his at
tentlon mainly to copper enterprises.
He is regarded as an operating steel
executive of the highest ability.
Many reports are in circulation re-
garding a change of status of the
Cambria Steel Co. but definite inform
alton yet is lacking as to just what
form this will take. No official state
ments on this matter yet are avail
able. It generally is believed the ne
gotlations now under way refer to the
frequently mentioned merger of the
Cambria and Pennsylvania steel com
panies through the purchase of the
holdings of the Penns ylvania railroad
in these two companies by interests
Unidentified with.~the present manage
ment. AS generally Known, options on
the purchase of a part, of all of this
stock have been given by the Pennsvl-
vania railroad. One report, now is
that these have been exercised partial
~ at least; another is that this will be
done by Oct. /.

tumn for the past dozen years have
gone into the Lake Superior ore re.
gions on tour of inspection of THEN
ore properties, and who are doing sc
again this week, are declared to be
getting far away from prying eyes
and listening ears in order to arrange
further details" of such a merger
1t is known positively in Cleveland
that at least two of the larger con-
Germs which might be involved through
the stockholdings of the gentlemen
about to inspect their ore mines,
neither are for sale nor under any
circumstances will be involved in the
merger Of any other concern.
Stock Gambling Hysteria.
One of the highest authorities in
the country, who is acquainted init
mately with all great industrial mat
tiers and men involved therein, in
forms the Daily Iron Trade and Metal
Market Report that the talk of any
proposed widespread merging of indie
pendent steel interests is the purest
bunkum. 1nstancing the report that
would include the Colorado Fuel &
Iron Co. in such a merger, he pointed
out several absurdities altogether ap-
parent on the face of them. Further,
as to the Hill ore interests going into
the combination, he pointed out the
explicit denial of Mr.. Hill recently
published and said he believed it.
Some readers of the hysterical
merger" stories which are appearing
in various newspapers from day to
day denominate the tales as mere
stock market reports, leaving the in
ference that they are being published
for the purpose Of influencing the
prices of some industrial stocks. 9th
ers hold that the American investing
public itself has been touched with a
spirit of hysteria and is ripe to buy
most anything that looks like a new
industrial stock.

HEAVY DEMAND FOR
BARBED WIRE EVIDENT

PITTSBURGH, Sept. 30.-Demand
for wire rods and barbed wire for
foreign shipment continues heavy.
Russia, France and England are in
quiring for tremendous tonnages of
barbed wire and English interests are
trying to buy both bessemer and open
hearth wire rods. Most mills in this
district have enough tonnage on their
books to assure maximum operation
for the remainder of the year, and
some interests are out Of the market
on certain sizes until after Jan. /.
Additional wire drawing equipment
has been installed at number of the
plants in western Pennsylvania and
eastern Ohio.
All makers are quoting prices adopt
ed last Saturday by the American
Steel & Wire Co., but not much ton
mage has been sold on the basis of
