OUTLOOK FOR TONOPAH
MINES GROWS BETTER
Continued from page y

Montana, which lately mas been more
concerned with it's outside property
than with its Tonopan holding, will
later resume
With the exception of these two,
which are cited in all fairness, prac.
tically all the other properties in
Tonopah are being actively devel-
oped and seven are producers. 1t is
needless to relate their past accom-
plishments, their present develop
ments and their outlook, for the dis
patches day by day, week by week,
month by month and year by year
have made such statements idle re-
iteration. Tonopah is going ahead at
the rate of ten million dollars a year
production and it is safe to say that
the ore in sight at present is Is
per cent in excess of what it was
at the beginning of me year, for the
heads in the mills have been held
down owing to the low price of sill
yer and all efforts have been bent to
putting a greater tonnage in sight
against the time when the white
metal will come into it's own.

ADJUSTMENTS
THE PAsTIME THEATER

A big production-a good one-is
"The Pit" which will be shown at
the Pastime today, with Wilton Lack
aye in the title role. 1t is elabor.
ately staged well directed and finely
played. There are two interiors of
pictorial and spectacular value un-
common even in these days of big
productions. These are the scenes
of the opera house and of the oper-
ators in the pit of the Chicago
Board of Trade. The book has been
so widely read that 1t is unnecessary
to go into details concerning it, Just
the fact that this great book in pic
lures may be seen in Tonopah today
should cause packed houses. Gail
Kane and Milton Sllls may also be
seen with I.ackaye.
Remember tomorrow Robert War
wick in "The Dollar Mark" that
greatest of sensational and thrilling
pictures.

men were shot In one household
alone the father and mother (names
given) were shot, the daughter died
after being repeatedly outraged, and
the son was wounded.
THE committee is specially i'm
pressed by the character of out
RACES committed in the smaller vii
lagos. Many of these are exception
ally shocking and cannot be regarded
as contemplated or intended by the
responsible commander of the troops
by whom they were committed. The
Inference, however, which we draw
from these occurrences is that when
once troops have been encouraged in
career of terrorism, the more saw.

there are some in every large army.

more particularly in those regions
where they are least subject to OBJ
servation and control
Evidence goes to show that deaths
in these villages were due not to ac-
cident but to deliberate purpose. The
wounds were mostly ,stabs or cuts,
and for the most part appear to have
been inflicted with the bayonet.
in Malines many bodies were
seen. One witness saw German
soldier cut woman's breast after
he had murdered her, and saw MANY
other dead bodies of women in the
street"

Second, That in the conduct of
the war generally innocent civilians,
both men and women, were murdered
in large numbers, women violated,
and children murdered.
Third, That looting, house burn
ing, and the wanton destruction of
property were ordered ana counten-
anced by the officers or the German
army; that elaborate provision had
been made for systematic incendiar-
ism at the very outbreak of the war,
and that the burning and destruction
were frequent where no military ne
cessity could be alleged, being in
deed part of system of general ter
Irorization.
Fourth, That the rules and usages
Iof war were frequently broken, par
ticularly by the using of civilians, in
GLIDING women and children, as a
shield for advancing forces exposed
to fire, to less degree by killing
the wounded and prisoners, and in
the frequent abuse of the Red Cross
and the white flag.
Sensible as they are of the gray
|ity of these conclusions, the commit
tee comedies that they would be
doing less than their duty if they
failed to record them as fully estab-
lished by their evidence. Murder,
lust, and pillage prevailed over many
parts of Belgium on scale unpar-
alleled in any war between civilized
nations during the last three cen
turtles.
Our function is ended when we
have stated what the evidence estab-
lished, but we may be permitted to
express our belief that these disclos-
ures will not have been in vain if
they touch and rouse the conscience
of mankind, and we venture to hope
that as soon as the present war is
over, the nations of the world in
council will consider what means can
be provided and sanctions devised to
prevent the recurrence of such hor-
rors as our generation is now wit
Messing"
The report makes an official doc
ument of 81 printed pages, or up
wards of 10000 words. 1t is accom-
panied by maps, showing the var
ious routes of the army and the
chief scenes of desolation. 1t states
at the outset that 1900 witnesses
have been examined, the dispositions
being taken by examiners of legal
knowledge and experience, though
without authority to administer an
oath.
Taking up the conditions at Liege,
at the outset of the war,
the report gives narrowing recital
of occurrences at various points in
the devastated territory. At Herve
on August 4, the report says, "The
of innocent civilians as pre-
lude to the burning and pillage of
the town and of other villages in
the neighoorhood; to the indiscrim-
mate shooting of civilians of both
sexes and to the organized military
execution of patches of selected
males. Thus some fifty men escap-
Ing from burning houses were seized,

CLAIM BROUGHT,

in the Mile Lac claim against the
United States, informed the mem
bers of this reservation that the
Court of Claims had rendered a
decision in favor of the Chippe-
was of Minnesota. for $4,000 for
the Mile Lac claim, last Monday.
In view of the uncontrovertible
evidence that the Indians had sus
tanned damages amounting to over
