in the shale, and it has followed
this fissure for a considerable dis
lance, showing quantities of low
grade ore.
Ore of high grade has been stoned
in this tissue, to a point within less
than so feet of the 1917 level and
for a considerable distance below
the surface of the shale. By OPEN
ing up the vein from the de ,l}ar
level. by mean of raises, it will be
possible to more thoroughly explore
the big fissure and to extract t"e
ore in a more economical manner.
The east cross-cut on this level has
connected with the workings of the
Merger Mines company and bulk
heads are being installed at points
in the Jumbo Extension workings
to start air circulating.
North of the Velvet shaft, on the
770-foot level, ore of good grade
has been exposed neal the foot-wall
of the main lode and a foot-wall
drift is being extended to the north
east on the SSO-foot level. while the
drift on the hanging wall side at
this depth is being extended by the

TUNGTTEN Is
BEING MINED

Tungsten producers in the south
ern end of the state are not salts
fled with the prevailing prices of
tungsten and are holding back their
shipments until such time as prices
revert to something like the old
standard Of three months ago.
Four tons of 60 per cent tungsten
is stored in Tonopah subject to
shipping orders and it is said that
another ton remains at Belmont.
The Spanish Springs company mar
kets its own product and is hold
ing for higher prices.
There is not the least hesitation
in advancing improvements and
continuing developments on account
of the depression and there is no
evidence that the industry will
languish even should tungsten re-
act to the price of two years ago,
when So per unit was paid for the
output of the Builder field in Cole
RADIO. At current quotations OF
$40 per unit the value of a 80
per cent product would be $1,000
per ton, which would leave a hand
some margin over and above all
expenses, including the cost of con-
c~entration.
The fact that the Atkins-Kroil
company, operating at Sodaville, is
rushing work on its new oncen
trating mill is taken a san indi-
cation of higher returns. At Soda
VILE over 200 men are employed,
counting those at the mine and
mill.-BOnanZa.

In the meantime churn-drilling
has been conducted over a large
area, with excellent results reported,
and a considerable production has
also been made from a part of the
property by mean of work of the
Nevada Con-, which has extended it's
workings into this ground for ac-l
quiring convenient access to one on

ZINC ORE IS FOUND

Continued from Page One
old Lead King, from which a con-
siderable tonnage of high : grade
lead-silver ore has been shipped dur-
ing past years. The men are work
ing on both lead and zinc ores at
the present time, and p Carload OF
ore is now ready for shipment. Both
classes of ore are coming from the
face of the tunnel, but are kept sep
arate for shipment. Theer are two
veins pa~ralleling each other on the
LEAD King property, separated by
a distance Of 600 feet.
The western vein, upon which
nearly all of the development WORK
ha l=en done. carries leaf and
while the vein on the east carries
only zinc. On the old dumps or
this vein are many tons of zinc ore
Which no doubt would pa7 t" snip at
preesnt prices. On the zinc vein but
little work has beer done, hence
the width Of the lead is not deter
minable. but is exposed in places
three and -four feet in width. This
vein outcrops through the district
for two or three miles in length,
and gives promise of becoming a
wonderful producer with develop
ment.
Underwood and Llewellyn are
shipping ore from a lease on the
Capaw property, probably two miles
south of the Lead King and adJoin-
ing the holdings of Holmes and
Kelly on the south. Owing TO a
misunderstanding with the owners
of the property. Jesse knight ana
associates of Salt Lake City, their
lease has been Cancelled, Il another
lease has been secured by ). H..
Buckley, who will no doubt continue
operations.
There are many other properties
in the Duck Creek district when
s ow zinc deposits, and the whole
district seems to present a splendid
field for prospecting and mining IL
is also a good field for leasers. Zinc
ore has been found as far south as
the old Peacock mine, and as far as
east as Berry creek. which is an in
dication that a district may be de-
veloped seevral miles in width ana
perhaps Is miles in length.
If the price of the metal remains
up the future of the district is as
sured. However one of the pressing
needs of the district. even at the
present time, is a plant where Gus
tom ores can be concentrated into a
product which will stand transpor-
lotion to eastern markets. Ely

MILL TO Be BUILT
BY RAGGED TOP co.
CONSTRUCTION OF PLANT WILL
SAVE HEAVY COST OF
SHIPPING

A new mill, to cost in the neigh
borhood of $4,000 is being plan
ned for the near future by II. nj.
Byllesby and company, purchasers
of the Ragged Top tungsten Claims
according to Hubert G. Charles
local manager of the concern.
During the so days the new
owners have been working on the
claims. $50 tons of ore has been
taken out and shipped. Thirty-fiye
men are employed at the diggings.
This number will advance wnen
modern facilities for taking out
the valuable rock have been in
stalled.
At this time, the ore is being
shipped from Miriam, a haul OF
% miles from the claims. A
caterpillar tractor is being used
with great economy, and an es-
timated cost of from $3.50 to 81
per ton is made on this method OF
transportation.
Surveys have been made, and
plans have been mailed to h
eastern headquarters for a road
way from the claims to Toulon,
which will be the future shipping
point. The road will cut che
hauling distance one half, and as
soon as the plans have been adop-
ted, the construction will be push
ed to conclusion as rapidly as
possible.
When the road is completed, the
loading equipment which vas in
stalled at Miriam will be moved to
Toulon.
Discussion of plans for building
the mill are under way. At this
time it has not been decided wheth-
err it will be erected at Toulon,
or the flat near the mines.-Re'

VETERAN HYLAND
GAINS DECISION
WINS By SUPERIOR INFIGHTING
IN NINTH AND TENTH
ROUNDS

Fighting Dick" Hyland gained
the decision over Danny Mathews in
their 10-round contest, staged last
night by the Goldfield Athletic club.
He earned the long end of the purse
by mitigating in the last few rounds,
particularly in the 10th, which was
almost a continual clinch, with Hy-
land doing all the Furnishing.
From the start through the fourth
round, which was all Mathews, the
local boy led by a wide margin,
demonstrating an ability to reach
bis opponent at will in long range
fighting. During the course of these
rounds Mathews repeatedly reached
the boy from the coast with his
right hand, drawing blood from cuts
which he made over and under Hy-
lands left eye. The complexion of
the bout changed in the fifth, when
Hyland went in close and gave
Mathews a bad beating about the
face.
In the eighth Hyland caught
Mathews in a neutral corner and in
a session of c~lose-range fighting
covered Danny's face with blood. In
the early part of the ninth. Mathews
again showed to advantage in a
short period of l%ong-range fighting.
but Hyland soon worked his way
close to him and then, coupled with
his performances in the 10th, earn
ed the decision.
O'Hern and Maxwell opened the
hostilities Of the evening with a six
round bout in which there was a
noticeable absence of clinching and
in which ~long-range fighting was
the rule, making it a pretty fight to
watch and which would have been
more interesting had Maxwell been
nearly a match for his opponent.
O'Hern was a far different man from
the night when he was beaten by
Mathews in the same arena some
time ago, and while he was unable
to put his opponent away, he led all
through the fight by a wide margin
and was awarded the decision.
Tommy Bronco was held to a
draw by Young Dupont in six rounds
of battling featured by Tommy's
dancing and and a frequent display
of his golden smile, considerable i'm
provement on the part of Dupont.
particularly in his ability to protect
himself, and Dupont's rushes.
which several times brought the
crowd to it's feet.
George Quigley refereed the pre-
liminaries and his decisions were
we'll received until he gave the de-
cision to Williams in the Trounce-
Williams fight and his ruling in that
instance brought forth a prolonged
howl from the crowd. Whether or
not Trounce was entitled to a draw,
he displayed a great improvement
over his previous performance with
Williams, and although his oppon-
ent had a decided advantage in
height and reach. he gave an ac-
count of himself which completely
unset the dope that resulted from
their last meeting
The main event was refereed by
.Tohnnv McCartv and Walter Drab-
nick introduced the men. La Grave
challenged McCarty to a return
fight and McCarty accepted, in
Guiding a willingness to meet any
man from 1873 to 155 pounds.

Permit me now to present for
your consideration a plan that in
my judgment will work, is consist
ent with the present law and will
better accomplish the desired result
than by any voluntary agreement
which the candidates can enter into,
an agreement which at best would
not be sanctioned by law and is of
extremely doubtful feasibility.
Il propose that the candidates for
delegates to the convention be re-
quested to publicly state their choice
for nominee for United States sena-
tor. so that the voters may know
where the candidates for delegates
stand; thus indirectly the voters
may accomplish the purpose which
our present law deprives them of
the privilege of. / have already ad-
vised this course where l have been
and shall continue to do so.
ut seems now that there will be
but one main contest before the re-
publican state convention-that for
the nomination for United States
senator. l want the rank and file
of the party to know whom the can
didates for delegates will favor, so
that they may express their choice
accordingly. I shall continue to
work along these lines even though
we may subsequently be able to
agree upon a plan to carry out your
proposal, in which event the voters
would have a double opportunity for
an expression of choice.

WANTS TO GET BEST
 MAN IN COUNTRY
Wilson Declares Regarding Appoint ment of Successor to Late Supreme
 Court Justice Lamar.

Washington, Jan. 7-President Will son told callers yesterday that before appointing a successor to the late Supreme Court Justice Lamar he would thoroughly canvass the situa- ton.
 He said he wanted to get the best man in the country for the place.
 Telegrams and letters indorsing various candidates were received to- day in large numbers. and Senators Simmons and Overman of North Carolina called to tell the president of the qualifications of Justice w. R. Allen of the North Carolina supreme court.
 Senator Newlands of Nevada, who also saw the president, said he thought if the president desired to appoint democrat, Secretary Lane should be appointed and that other wise former President Taft should be named. MT. Taft has been indorsed in many messages received at the White House.
