Denver.-The first annual report Of

sion, covering the five months Of its
existence, was made to Governor
Carlson and shows marked progress
In the development of the compensa-
tion, insurance and industrial branches

and 5000 accidents were reported
from all parts of the state. Fifty-six
death claims, each calling for month.

settled. A total of 450 injury claims
were adjusted, with compensation av
eraging 500.
Twelve industrial disputes were
settled without disorder or loss of
time to employer or employe. One
disagreement, that Of the journeymea
tailors, is now being investigated.
The commission got work for more
than 100 former strikers by interced
ing with employers.
Prosperity shown by the figures OF
the State Compensation Insurance
fund is considered by the commission
to be perhaps the most important fea-
ture Of the report.
The fund has a surplus of $16,-
664.57, this being over and above re-
serves abundantly sufficient, in the
opinion of the manager, to liquidate
every obligation.
Business written and paid for indi-
Gates an annual premium income to

the report, has been uniformly con.

auguring well for the character OF the
risks underwritten, since willingness
to pay cash in advance generally is
accepted as evidence of good mora,

The report declares that the fund 8

drawn from virtually every industry
In the state, except coal mining and

Thirty Saved In HospitaL Fire

Pueblo.-Fire gutted a portion OF
the west wing Of st. Mary's hospital,
endangering the lives of thirty pa.
tients in that end of the structure and
for half an hour threatened the des-
tructiOn of the entire building. Due
to the heroism Of the sisters, nurses
and firemen not life was lost and
no serious injuries reported. This
fire originated from unknown sources
in the basement near the main en-
trance to the west wing and had
eaten its way through the first floor
and into the partitions of the wooden
walls before 1t was discovered,
When the fire department arrived
flames were bursting from the doors
and windows and Chief Christie

more remote sections OF the hospital.

FABULOUSLY RICH ORE
STRIKE IN vlNpIcAToR APPEARS
IN VIRGIN GROUND.
Mining Men Declare Vein the Great
est Ever Found In the Cripple
Creek District.
Western Newspaper Union New. Service.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Cripple Creek, Colo.-A gold discov.
cry said to surpass anything ever
known in Colorado has been made
within the last few days in the Vindi-
Gator mine at Cripple Creek. The far
famed "jewelry box" opened in the
Cresson mine year ago is said to
pale into insignificance beside this
new find. A completely new vein sys.
TEN has been tapped that is in virgin
territory. and that may extend clear
to the surface.
Following the strike In the six.
teenth level, developments to open
the new vein were started In the
fourteenth with view to determining
its possible extent. In the meantime
the drift at the original discovery
depth was being prosecuted, with the
result that recently while the new
work at the fourteenth was bearing
fruit the drift at the lower level was
proving a new shoot length OF 400
feet and width Of from thirty to for
ty feet. Practically the entire vein
filling is high grade ore.
Cripple Greek scarcely needed this
fresh stimulus to deep mining. The
story of the Vindicator is being re-
flected in kind by all the new work
being prospected in its great mines at
depth. Everywhere the story is one
OF new ore bodies, increased values,
reserves that guarantee heavy pro-
duction for many years above the
level OF the Roosevelt drainage tun7
mel The "jewelry shop" of the
Cresson was extraordinary in the con-
centration Of values In its ores, but
the Vfndicator strike, In quantity and
total worth, bids fair to far exceed it
both In ultimate extraction and i'm
portance to the mining industry Of
the camp.
