The expenses have included i'm orovements at the property with the exception of the cost of plant and linking at the old Iron Cap shaft s-hich is being paid from special fund. The report for April states that
 he appearance of the 900-foot level has been improving and that a larger quantity of ore also is being shipped from it. According to the annual re- port the ore was proved for 50 feet below the S00-foot level so that there should seem to be enough orc to stope 10 continue shipments without inter- vuntion for a long time to come.
 The production at the Iron Cap has Teen coming from the Williams shaft which is located near the eastern end lines of the property. but the western md of the property. adjoining the Ar iZona Commercial ground in which the rich sulphide ore bodies have heen de- veloped. is now being opened up. The )ld Iron Cap shaft, located about 400 'eet from the western end is being en- larged and prepared to greater
 'nnth. This shaft is already down 500 feet, so that by sinking it the man. agement will be able to get depth of 1000 feet much quicker than if a new Fhaft was sunk.
 The Iron Cap is believed to have
 rearIv $500 feot-on the lode and with
 he new shaft in operation the prop erty is being developed at two points about 1000 feet from each other. It would seem in view of the rich ore l bedy the company is shipping from at the eastern end of the property and the rich ore developed in the Arizona l Commercial at the western end thai | Iron Can possesses potential possibil'
 ties especially in view of the lont | length on the lode and the small cap | italization of the company.
 There is now a surplus in the treas ury which must be nearing the s400, 1 900 mark so that the company is il l possession of ample funds for a thor l ough exploration and development 0

troubled with an inflow of water com polling them to cease operations in sinking. The company is now con- structing a reservoir on the 200 foot level. The water from the dump will be pumped tc this station, and then T separate pumping plant elevating it to the surface As soon as these ar engagements are completed then sink ing of the main shaft will be renewed. For some time the company had un- der consideration the advisability Of running cross cut tunnel to connect with the shaft especially to assist drainage facilities but this was aban- doncd for the present plan now being under completion for the dewatering of the mine.

COST Of FOOD
FORU. S.NAVY
Bids for Supplies From 20 to
40 Per Cent More Than
Last Year

NEW YORK, n. Y.-The cost of vic
maling the navy will be from twenty
to. forty per cent more this year than
last year. This was indicated with the
opening of bids for food supplies on
Wednesday and became more apparent
with the filing of additional contract
offers today. -.a... .+s'.....
On some of the items called for in
contract specifications many firms de-
clined to bid. None of the companies
was able to supply even small part
OF the order for string beans.
One of the largest items of. the list
was for canned peaches, amounting TO
$40, GOO pounds, or IA, SOC cases. Austin
Nichols & Co. we're the lowest bidders,
at $51 ,319, or about $3.50 a dozen cans.
Francis H. Legsett & Co. bid S52.62S,
Lewis De Croft & Sons, $45,377, and
Kemp. Day & Co. $5I,92S, with an
alternative bid of $5l,S0S.@@
Lima beans, amounting to 2S5,000
pounds, were on the order. Lewis De
Croft & Co. offered to furnish them for
$20,3SS and Seeman Brothers for s2l,-
81. String beans are scarce this
year and the government <sas unable
to obtain bids for the full quantity of
half million pounds. Seeman Brothers
are willing to supply 1900 pounds for
81. 800, and Z. <. Williams & Co., 270,-
00G pounds for S@2,120.
Canned corn is not far from double
what it was last year owing to the
short crop. The contract calls for
l ,140,g00 pounds. which Lewis De
Croft & Son offered to furnish for
$S5,174 and r. c. Williams & Co. for
$93,S4O. Canned tomatoes, amount
ing to 1000 ca>es, oil. 100000 pounds,
brought bids as follows r. c. Will
liams & Co, $tI2.945; Lewis De Croft
& Son, $113,33S; Austin Nichols & Co.,
1850; S. H. LevinS & Son, of Phila-
delphia, s125SS5, and Kemp, Day &
Co., $50. The awards, in probably
all instances, VIII go to the lowest
bidders.

Mr. Baker denies that the recent

with his decision TO appoint the. board
He has been considering such a board
for a long time, but has been delayed
by trouble in gettin men to serve.
The board will consider and make
recommendations as to whether a

and the type or types which should be

CAVALRY TROOPS
ON BORDER KEEP
NFIGHTINGTRIM
Mimic Battles That Are Almost
Real Thing Serve for
instruction

FIELD HEADQUARTERS, Amcri-
can Punitive Expedition in Mexico,
Oct. 2l.-"Fire control" drills, which,
in months time have increased the
effectiveness nf cavalry regiments
fire 100 per cent, are important fact
ors in the field maneuvers being held
by the American punitive expedition.
Far from being a period of stagna-
tion for the evolutionary troops, the
hiatus during the last few months in
the pursuit of Villa has been of almost
inestimable benefit to them, particu-
laEly to the moanted arm. 1t has Civ
en- commanding officers opportunities
to handle larger bodies of men under
conditions more nearly akin TO those
of war than have obtained at any time
since in the past so years.
The manenye;s, which are varied,
progressive AID in accordance with
well defined plans, include such SIM
pie exercises as morse training and as
cend 20 solving of warfare problems
that involve the handling of brigades.
Fire control although classed among
the elementary exercises, is virtually
new to the cavalry. although the in
fantry has been working on it for sew
eral years.
Studying developments of the Euro
pean war, and realizing that, under
modern conditions of warfare, cavalry
does most of its fighting on foot, com
manders OF that arm of the service are
giving their troops a great deal of dis
mounted work, paying particular at
tentioa to attack. In this connection
il is noticeable that the ringing bugle
no longer sounds the charge, for every
maneuver is made by signal. Save for
the ramp OF hoofs and the leather
seftened rattle of equipment, troop
movements are made silently. not a
voice being raised in command.
When problem, prepared by the
commanding general or his staff, is
given out, an observer accompanies
each Of the opposing leaders and an
umpire watches the operations. After
each mimic combat, critique is
held Tactical errors observed are
pointed out and suggestions made rela-
tive TO better maneuyers that might
have been employed.
Full advantage is being taken of
the fact that there are four regiments
on cavalry at Headquarters camp, a
circumstance without parallel in army
annals for years. ALI the regiments
being psed, il also is observed, are
being unanswered at full war strength
as provided under the new army reor-
ganization bill. This affords the first
opportunity American commanders
have had, of hendling troops of this
size in maneuyers.

Mr.. II. S. ELLIS
The Popular l.. q N. Agent Here,
Offered the Agency AZ Paris
Hope He Won't Accept.

Mr.. w. II. Harris, the popular
freight agent of the L. & ~ railroad
at Paris, has been promoted to a sim
liar position at Lexington, and will
have charge of the new freight depot
which was recently completed in that
city for the use of the l.. g. N. and the
Louisville & Eastern. Mr.. Harris will
represent both companies, taking
complete charge of the freight bust
ness for both companies. The appoint
ment is effective February /, 1915
Mr. Harris was formerly general
freight agent for the l.. G. n. in Car
Isle, but was transferred to Paris,
about eleven years ago. succeeding
Mr. f. II. Binzel, who went from here
to Paris, but later resigned
Mr. Frank b. Carr, who was for
merly freight agent in Paris, but who
for the last twelve years has been
general agent for the l.. & N. in Lex
ington. will continue in his present
position, only relinquishing the duties
of the freight business to Mr. Harris
The agency at the Paris Office of
the L. & n. has been offered to Mr. IL
S. Ellis of MaysvilIe, who holds sim
liar position with the L. & ~, who has
the matter under consideration.
Since Mr.. Ellis has been at the head
of the L. & Ms affairs here the bust
ness of that road has increased heav-
lily, he taking the agency made vacant
by the transfer of Mr.. f. H. Binzel,
another popular and accommodating
gentleman, to Paris, and as Mr.. Ellis
has made everybody his friend here by
his extraordinary accommodating
plans. il is the universal expression
that the l.. & N. get another man for
Paris and let Mr.. Ellis stay in this
city.
Maysville needs just such gentle
men as Mr.. Ellis.
II is understood that in case Mr.
Ellis decides to remain in Maysville,
that the Paris agency will be given
to Mr.. W. V. Shaw. the general agent
at Mlllersburg.
