u DISTRICTS
TUNGSTEN PRODUCERS
IN EAST WHITE PINE

Ore is now being sacked or ship
ment all the way from camp Bonita
on the east side of the Snake range
to Sacramento Pass, several miles
north of OsceOla, and new
les are being made almost every day.
And the beauty of it is that a man
of even limited can take out
enough good shipping ore to a eA-
penses of development work. There
are three mills 10Y concentrating
tungsten ores in the Snake range,
one at Hub, another at Bonita and
still another at Sacramento Pass.
They are not at the present time
giving out any information as to the
percentage of the ores, their savings
or the value of concentrates, but
the general understanding is that
the concentrates will run better than
co per cent, which is probably worth
from $3.50 to 5000 per sack. At
least that is the best information OBJ
tainable at the present time through
out the district. In addition to this
ore is being sacked for shipment in
at least a dozen places at new
strikes made along the range.-Ely

HOW RABIES AFFECTS CATTLE
BITTEN BY MAD COYOTES

George Russell. Jr.. a ranchman OF
Battle Mountain, tells the Elko
Free Press that mad coyotes in hat
district have done great damage and
that many cattle and hogs are dying
from rabies. The losses include a
number of dairy Ows
The first symptoms of the disease
noticeable, says Mr.. Russell, was the
excessive ba wling of animals. They
would stand practically in one posi-
ton for the first day and bawl in
cessantly, The second day they would
chase everything in sight and charge
everything that moved, not trying to
bite it.. but to hook it. Then about
the third day they seemed to get
weaker and when charging at any
thing they would break down behind,
and finally get SO weak that they
couldn't get up and soon died.
Martin Filippini, at CaricO Lake,
has been ordered by the state all
thOrities to kill all the dogs on HIS
ranch. The order came as the re-
suit of an examination of a coyote
head sent to the state university by
Filippini. The coyote was p%rOnOuEc-
ed decidedly rabid and as it was kill
ed while fighting with the pack of
ranch dogs, all were exterminated
as ordered.

COMSTOCK TUNNEL co.
OUT OF STOCK EXCHANGE

The shareholders of the ComstOck
Tunnel company have been notified
in an official letter, just received on
this coast, that the shares of the
company lave been taken from the
list of the New York stock exchange
because the new commission rate
adopted by the exchange did not
provide for shares having a par value
of So. and hereafter trading in the
company shares will take place upon
the New York Curb market. 1t was
also impossible to deal in the shares
upon the Curb market so long as
they continued on the stock eX-
change list, because the rules of "
New York Curb Market association
prohibit dealing in stocks listed upon
the exchange. The stock exchange
dropped the Tunnel company shares
from the list without prejudice and
at the request of the company. AS
the New York Curb is now the pri-
mary market for mining securities it
will be a distinct advantage to the
shareholders of the Tunnel company
to have them listed there. Tt will
be remembered that the Gold
Consolidated Mining company recent
Jy took this step and had it's shares
transferred from the stock exchange
to the curb market.-Virginia ChrOn-
