MOHAWK MINERS
NECK IS BROKEN
NOW IN HOSPITAL AND MAY RE-
COVER FROM HIS
INJURY

John Clingan, a miner employed
ing in st. Mary's hospital,
almost completely paralyzed be-
low the neck as a result of be-
ing hit on the head by a small
quantity of falling gumbo and mud
while at work in the mine on the
night shift Saturday night. The &C
cident occurred about Z o'clock.
Clingan's neck is reported to be
broken, the fifth cervical vertebra
being fractured. The break renders
him unable to nov his head and
pressure on the spinal cord has al
most completely paralyzed his body
below the fracture. His condition
showed improvement yesterday and
today. He retains consciousness and
can talk.
His pitiable plight has not been
revealed to him, but from the char
acter of treatment he suspects his
precarious condition. His recovery
is considered possible.
Clingan is the young man who,
until the recent acquittal of George
Harris, was held under bonds for al
legged connection with the taking of
the Healy children. After Harris ac-
quittal the charse against him was
,li.J' issed.
He is a single man, 26 years of
age. He says that his mother is
dead and that his father is some
where in Oklahoma. He does not
know his address. He has no other
known relatives. He was born and
raised in the state of Tennessee.

GERMAN MOTHER
SHOT FOR TREASON
HAD AGREED THAT SON SHOULD
REMAIN IN UNITED
STATES

The Tribune was shown yesterday
a letter from oakland, California
to a prominent citizen of Goldfield
that contained this paragraph:
Il heard a story today that
came right from a friend who
knows the parties. A German
living in Palo Alto, was natur-
allied a few years ago here. His
brother was killed in the war,
and his old mother wrote from
Germany that she thought he
ought to come back and take
his brothers place, and enter the
war for Germany. He wrote that
he did not think so; that he had
cast his fortunes here a few
years ago, and had made money
here, and had his interests here,
and expected to remain, and he
felt that he would remain loyal
to this county, and owed moth
ing to Germany, etc. She wrote
back to him that after thinking it
over very earnestly and prayer
fully she agreed with him, and
would not ask him to come. The
letter reached him, with the state
ment at the bottom by the cen
sor, "Your mother was shot to-
day for this treason"
This is the second incident Of the
kind that has come to light on the
Pacific coast recently. The other in
stance came to the attention Of the
recruiting officers of the navy
through an application that way
made for service in the navy by g
young German who had not been
and the recruiting Off
GERS, being suspicious of his motives
questioned him until he submitted
correspondence which revealed the
fact that a member of his family
had been shot for discouraging re
in America from returning
t. Germany for military service.

James e. Keelyn, prominent min

Keelyn mine, which is only two and

Salt Lake railroad, is a high-grade
lead-silver property. At a depth of
80 feet they have cut a 10-foot vein
of ore dipping into the mountain on
an incline of about 60 degrees. The
ore is made on a contact. Much ma

EXTENSIVE WORK
At TYPO MINES
LOUISIANA CONSOLIDATED CON-
PANY REJUVENATED OLD
PRODUCER
(By James +. O'Brien)

News of the operations of the
Louisiana Consolidated Mining
company for the months of March
at the Typo mine, SO miles north
east of Tonopah, is of the most sat-
isfactory nature. In the reopen
ing of that famous old producer a
great amount of work has been &C
complished during that period. The
old shaft house has been removed
and the foundation for a 165-horse-
power Diesel engine has been con-
structed. The engine is now on the
way from Tonopah and will short
ly be installed. A new compressor,
having a capacity of 500 cubic feet
per minute, a 75-kilowatt electric
generator, and a new steam hoist
have been installed, and in addi-
ton a Cameron sinking pump, air
drills for sinking and drifting, and
electric pumps have been delivered
has also been constructed.
The main shaft has been repair
ed to the water level at a depth of
$50 feet, and pumping will be COM
menced as soon as the engine is
installed, which will be on or be-
fore the 18th of this month.
At the Bunker shaft a 25-horse
power Fairbanks-Morse gasoline
hoist has been installed, a new
gallas-frame erected and the shaft
put in good order to the 30O-foot
level. Sinking will be started at
this shaft during the week and will
be continued as rapidly as possible
until the 40O-foot level is reached.
1t is expected that the sulphide zone
will be entered in the next few
days when the shaft should have at
tanned a depth of 800 or $50 feet.
Through the Bunker shaft 1000
feet of the vein will be worked on
the west end, while 1900 feet of
the vein on the east end will be
worked through the main shaft.
The two shafts are about 1900 feet
apart on the strike of the vein.
While it is the intention of the
Louisiana Consolidated company,
as previously announced, to erect
a smelter for it's ores at Typo, as
we'll as to construct a railroad from
Eureka or Ely to Tonopah via Ty-
DO, yet for the present shipments
will be made to existing smelters,
and auto trucks will be used to
haul the ore to the railroad at To-
nOpah.
The first truck bought by the
company, with two trailers, is in
service between Tonopah and Typo
and is hauling in machinery, sup
plies and fuel oil. Two more
trucks and four trailers will be de-
livered within two weeks and ore
shipments will be made by this
means until railroad connection with
Typo is established

COPPER MARKET
GREATLY UNSETTLED

The unsettled condition of the

to get any definite information on
what copper will do in the next
two or three days.
Frank M. Manson, manager of
the Western Ore Purchasing COM
pany, who is always in close touch

some change in the market could be
expected soon, but whether it would
rise or fall he would not predict.

have been about the same every
