MADISON CO.'S SILVER NINE

President Knox of the Madison
Mining Corporation which is operating
the Silver Mine, arrived this week
from Morristown, New Jersey, and
was taken out to the mine on Tues
day of this week.
Mr.. Knox's arrival has revived ru-
more concerning the erection of a
large mill and other improvements,
but the man who belives none of them
is the safe man. However, the work
continues out there with an increased
force and more machinery is being
added. This week several teams are
being used to haul out stamp mill
which will, no doubt, be used for the
purpose of crushing the ore. Small
amounts have heretofore been crush
ed by hand and shipped, supposedly
for testing purposes.
A stamp-mill is merely another
name for crushing mill which works
on the principle of the druggists NOR
tar and pestle. The stamps are of
great weight and arranged in row
on revolving shaft. A series of
cams are arranged so that one after
another the stamps are released fall
ing with great force on the ore in a
chamber beneath. When the ore is
thoroughly crushed stream of water
carries the slime away. Stamping
mills are designated in size according
to the number of stamps. The mill
being taken to the mines is known as
a five-battery mill because it has five
stamps. 1t is the type generally used
in gold mining and was, in fact, ship
ped here from the gold fields Of
Georgia.
The big boiler is nearly installed
and soon the pumps will have uncov'
cred the large deposits of ore in the
main mine. -Fredericktown Democrat

SENATE PASSES HOLLIS
FARM LOAN BILL BY 3S TO


Washington, ID. G., May 4.-Ihe
Hollis farm loan bill, embodying the
administration plan for establishing a
system of rural credits, passed the
Senate tonight by vote of 90 to 5.
Senators Brandegee, Lodge, Oliver,
Page and Wadsworth, all Republic
cans, voted against the measure.
The bill, after almost two weeks Of
debate, passed the Senate virtually as
reported by the Banking Committee.
An amendment by Senator Smoot, re-
ducing the salaries Of Farm Loan
Board from $4,000 to $1,000, which
was adopted by vote of rs to Is in
the committee of the whole, was re-
considered when the bill reached the
Senate, and was defeated, 20 to 81.
Similar Bill Reported in House
A somewhat similar bill has been
reported in the House Banking Com
mittee and, it is said, will be brought
up for consideration in the House
soon. Like the Senate measure, it
would create chain of farm loan
banks, but it differs in means of ope-
ration.
The Senate bill provides for a non
partisan farm loan board to consist
of the Secretary of the Treasury and
four others, having a general control
of a farm loan system of IL or more
land banks and of farm loan associa-
tons through which loans actually
would be made.
Each land bank would have a cap
ital stock of at least $5O0.OO0, to be

CONFERENCE HOLDS
UP ARMY BILL

The Conference of the two Houses
Of Congress, having in charge the ar
my bill to adjust the differences as
it passed the Senate and House, dead
locked last Thursday over the Fed
eral Volunteer army and the Govern
ment nitrate plant, and will hold nc
more sessions while awaiting fur
Their instructions from the House.
Despite the disagreement, Chair
man Chamberlain of the Senate con-
ferees expresses the hope that a bill
would yet be evolved acceptable to
both houses. The House is strongly
opposed to both the voluntary army
and the nitrate plant provisions.
Chairman Hays of the House conferees
has promised, however, to ask for fur
Their instruction on the nitrate plant
provisions, although he is said to have
declared that the House never would
accept the volunteer provision.
Break Over Nitrate Provision
Presidents attitude on the nitrate
plant provision is said to have precip-
itated the break in the conference AT
conference yesterday with Chairman
Hay he insisted on the provision re-
naming in the bill and was said also
to favor the volunteer army provi-
sion. The Presidents further insist
ence on the army nitrate plant provi-
sion, it was said, would cause another
clash between himself and the House
Up to the time of the break, which
had been forecast, the conferees had
been making good progress on regu.
lar army reorganization and reserve
features. They had tentatively agreed
on standing army in time of peace
of 10000 men, 10000 more than the
House bill carried, and an elastic or.
ganization scheme contained in the
Senate bill which would provide fol-
expansion in time of war or threaten.
ed war to 100000 men. They also
had agreed to the House bill reorgani
cation plan for the national guard
which would provide for liberalization
of this reserve force and its expansion
to approximately 100000 men.
Republican Charge Denied
Republicans are standing solidly
against the nitrate provision, insist
ing that it is being urged by "watel
power" lobby. Many Democrats alsc
oppose it.
Chairman Hay said, however, ther'
was no ground for the charge tina
the water power interests would pro
fit by the erection of plant.
