Beef Stolen

On December 9th a search war.
rant was issued out of the Haw
thorne Justice Court authorizing the
sheriff to search the premises of John
Doe, in Cottonwood canyon, for the
hide or any part of beef supposed
to have been stolen from Ambro
Rossaschi of East Walker river. Our
officers visited Cottonwood and, after
thorough search were unable to
find evidence sufficient to warrant
them in making an arrest. Officers
from Lyon county were also in pur-
suit OF the offender. They visited
the camp of Bill Pearce,, where they
found Bob Zeigler, whom they hand
cuffed on the spot, but subsequently
released. Now Mr.. Pearce threatens
legal proceedings against the Lyon
County officers for restraining his
hired man OF his liberty.

son Valley smelter was idle during
the year. the greater part of the out
put came from White Pine county,
where the Nevada Consolidated was
particularly active toward the end
of the year on account OF the price Of
copper, which increased to nearly 20
cents pound. During the first
three quarters of the year 2,25l 1866
tons of ore we're milled from this pro-
perty and over 1000, 900 pounds of
copper produced The rate for the
last quarter was greatly increased.
Ore from the Giroux was also milled
and smelted at the Nevada Consoli-
dated plant. Copper ore was also
shipped from the Goldfield district.
Ore was shipped from the Nevada
Douglas the latter part of the year
and 250ton leching plant completed
for the treatment of low grade ore.
The lead production of Nevada
mines increased from 12,809,6 ,655
pounds in 1914 to 4,792, 900 pounds
in 1915; an increase of over Is per
cent. This output however is not as
great as that of 1913 when over 49,
900, 900 pounds were produced.
A great increase, nearly 62 per
cent, was made in the mine output of
zinc in Nevada, from 1880, 232
pounds of recoverable spelter in 1918
to over 21 900, 900 pounds of the met
al in 1915. AS the price of the metal
was abnormally high in 1915, the
value of the output increased from
1861 992 to about 1888, 900 in 1915.
The main dividend payers of the
state were Nevada Consolidated,
Goldfeld Consolidated, Tonopah
Mining, Tonopah Belmont, Tonopah
Extension, Jumbo Extension, Jim
Butler, Nevada Wonder, Seven
Troughs Coalition and West End.
To December l, 1915, the total in
dividends was over sc. .000, 900.

A Painful Accident

While engaged in thawing out a
frozen water main in Cory Canyon
Joe Laiolo met with a very painful
accident. The large main was frozen
solid at point where it is conveyed
across the canyon on trestles. After
disconnecting the main Mr.. Liaolo
endeavored to free the pipe of ice by
driving rod through it. While
thus engaged Liaoo's foot slipped on
the ice, and in trying to keep from
falling he drove the little finger oil
his right hand into the pipe with the
rod, badly lacerating the finger.
While the cut is very painful, it is
thought the finger will be saved.
To add to Mr.. Laiolos discomfort,
the team which conveyed him up to
the canyon ran away and he was
obliged to walk to town, about six
miles. One of the horses was serious
ly injured in the runaway.

In Elko county. the Buster mill al
Jarbidge and the Rex mill at Colo
Circle were active. There was much
activity at the new camp of Willard,
nine miles northeast of Lovelock.
Various lessees were shipping gold
ore. In the Manhattan district oil
Nye county, the Big Pine mine was
the principal producer, the mill oil
which was treating 100 tons per day
by amalgamation the latter part OF
the year. Four other mills were op
Grated to smaller extent in the dis
trict, the Whitman & Kane, Man.
haitian Mining & Ore company, the
Associated mill and the War Eagle
mill.
The silver production from Nevada
mines decreased from Is, 455. 191
ounces in 1914 to about 14,47S, 900
ounces in 1915. The decrease was at
Tonopah, where the mines we're af.
fected by the low price of silver. At
the Comstock district of Storey the
produetion was also decreased, and
the idleness of the Mason Valley
copper smelter to a small extent less
ened the silver output. The great
est silver producers in the state we're
the Tonopah Belmont, Tonopah Min
ing company, Tonopah Extension,
Jim Butler and West End at Tono-
pah, Nevada Wonder and Nevada
Hills in Churchill County and the
Rochester district in Humboldt coun-
ty. The mines in the last named
district were active, but particularly
so after the advent of the Nevada
Short Line railroad. The 1O0-ton
cyanide custom mill was operated,
producing gold and silver bullion, and
Il small mill was active on the Lin
coin Hill property. There was con.
siderable activity in the Rand Dis
trict of Mineral county, where un-
usually rich ore was shipped from
the Last Hope, Gold Pen, Queen Re-
gent and Eagle properties. In the
old camp of Belmont in Nye county,
a 20O-ton mill, using flotation, was
being constructed to treat dump ore
containing silver.
The mine production of copper in
creased from 6O,9S6, 45O pounds in
1914 to about 81, 4S0, 900 pounds in
1915, an increase of 1916 per cent.

Nevada Mines Prosper
During Year Just Past

The United States Geological sur
vey reports the value of the 1915 out
put of gold silver, copper lead and
zinc from Nevada mines as approx
imately S34, SOC, ,0O0 This represents
an increase of nearly Is per cent over
the output of 1914, when metals val
ued at $29, ,300,842 were produced
These estimates, by V. c. Heikes, of
the Salt Lake City office of the sur
vey indicate a marked increase Ia
zinc output, an increase in lead and
copper yield, as compared with 1914.
The copper production, however, was
below that of 1913, when Nevada had
record output of over 80, 900, 900
pounds. There was a slight increase
in the gold production, but a de-
crease in silver largely in the 1ono-
pah district, where the output was
affected by the decreased price of
silver.
The production of gold was valued
at about s1l, 1868, 900, an increase of
4 per cent over the production of
1914. The greater part of the gold
came from siliceous ores milled, and
about 20 per cent of the total came
from Tonopah. The Goldfeld Con-
solidated treated over 1856, 900 tons of
ore, but produced somewhat less gold
than in 1914. Other mines in the
district, however, went to make up
this deficiency for important tonages
came from the Jumbo Extension.
which was shipping about 1900 tons
per month the early part of the year
and subsequently nearly doubled
this output. The Atlanta and Flor
ence Goldfield also shipped consider
able gold ore. Goldfield district pro-
duced approximately 40 per cent of
the total gold OF the state. The Ne.
yada Wonder and Nevada Hills prop
critics in Churchill couty contributed,
though less than in 1914 The out
put from Round Noun tain in Nye
county was also somewhat less, due
to the installation of pipe line for
placer operations. There was a great
increase, however, IN the Seven
Troughs district, where the Seven
Troughs Coalition has added consid.
erably to the gold production. The
National mine in Humboldt county
increased it's output but nothing
was published concerning the prop
erty. Though the plant of the Au.
nora mine was closed part of the year
for alterations to the mill, the bull
ion shipments were far in advance of
those in 1914. The Pittsburg-Silver
Peak company at Blair was treating
nearly 4, ZOO tons of ore per month,
and the mines at Rochester produced
shipping ore and bullion which con-
tanned some gold, though principally
silver. The output OF gold from the
Tonopab district decreased from 128-
1877. 80 ounces in 1914 to about 49,
600 ounces in 1915, giving produc-
tion of over $2, 1886, 900 in gold, though
hedistrict is primarily a silver camp.
In Clark county at the Quartette
property ore was treated at the
Cryus Noble mill as formerly, and a
new cyanide plant was reported oper-
ating at the Colorado Nevada mine.
