Italy needs no fighting men from
the United States, but she does need
money, ships and some food, ac-
cording to Enrico Arlotta, minister
of transportation in the Italian cab
met, who arrived in America with
three other members of the Italian
war commission to this country.
The remaining members, including
Senator Marconi and Ferdinand,
Prince of udine, are expected in a
few days. Signor Arlotta was visi-
bly, p%erturbed when asked as to the
possibility of Italy's making a sep
arate peace. No Italian, he said,
had ever dreamed of such a thing.
Signor Arlotta said the purpose of

HONOR PAID TO
BUFFALO BILL
BODY OF FAMOUS SCOUT LAID
TO REST ON MOUNTAIN
PEAK

DENVER, Colo, June 4.-Last
tribute was paid yesterday to the
memory of Colonel William F.. Cody,
buffalo Bid by a vast a~ssemblage
when the body of the famous scout
and plainsman was laid to rest in
a vault blasted from solid rock on
top of Lookout Mountain, 20 miles
from Denver.
More than 10000 people went
from Denver to Lookout Mountain
by automobile and electric train.
the grave there was a steady pro-
cession of automobiles winding up
the mountainside toward the sum-
nit. Several thousand persons who
had gone by trolley or trudged
along the automobile road to Wild
cat Point, where the burial was
held.
The ceremonies at the grave was
not elaborate, only the Masonic
ritual being used under the direc-
ton of the Golden Masonic lodge.
A delegation of Knights Templars
from North Platte, Neb., where
Colonel Cody held his membership,
acted as an escort.
AS the last shovel full of earth
was thrown into the grave a bug
Ter sounded taps. When the last
note had died out a battery of
Colorado national guards artillery
fired a salute of 10 guns. AS the
last shot ceased reverberating
among the mountains the Stars and
Stripes were broken out from a
flag pole at the grave.
For an hour and a half before
the service began, the thousands OF
persons who had made the journey
to the summit of the peak where
Colonel Cody often had gone to
view the broad plains of Colorado.
Nebraska, Kansas and wyoming
and the snow-capped peaks of Colo
rado-all visible from the spot
chosen for his last resting place

the coffin for a last look at the
face of the old plainsman.

sisters, Mrs. Julia Goodman OF

Cody Decker of Denver and other
relatives, two of his companions in

OLD TUSCARORA
MINES REVIVED
FAMOUS CAMP MADE PRODUC-
TION OF MILLIONS IN
EARLY DAYS

Work has been started at Tusca-
production from several OF the old
mines of the district that were not
ed in the early days for the heavy
output of high-grade silver-gold ore.
The mines are the Nevada Queen
and the North Commonwealth. Div
idends paid by the old companies
owning these mines amounted to
81 100000, and the Stewart Min
ing company, which now controls
them, is expected to resume payment
of dividends this year from the
profits hat will be made from the
new operations.
Some time ago an official an
nouncement by President Hiram G.
sent to stockholders and contained
this information. But the back
wardness of the season has delayed
the starting of plans for further de-
veloping and working the old prop
critics.
According to maps prepared by en-
g%ineers of the old companies when
the mines were being worked many
years age, there are a number of
large Slopes where big quantities of
ore too low in grade for profitable
operations in those times are avail
able. A new shaft that will give ac-
cess to the deep workings has been
started and the plans of the com
pany contemplate sinking another
shaft this year.
Also, on the surface of the proper
ties there are immense dumps of
material that was too low in values
to be milled in the old days, but for
the treatment of which a process
has been invented by Professor e. r.
Holden, Jr. This process, it is de-
clared, will w better than 80 per
cent of the metal content of the
dump material at a cost of $3.50
a ton.
While the population of the dis
trict for a number of years has
been small, several thousand men
ere employed in the mines and
mills at one time, and Tuscarora
was then one of the most import
ant towns in the state. A large
quantity of lumber for use in the
new operations of the mines now
controlled by the Stewart company
is at Elko awaiting transportation to
Tuscarora. AS soon as the condi-
tion of the road permits, this ma
terial and a hoist for n of the
new shafts will be taken to the
property.-Reno Gazette.

ALL AMERICAS
TO Be IN WAR
SPEAKER SAYS SOUTH AMERI-
CAN COUNTIES WILL UNITE
AGAINST ENEMY

BALTIMORE, June John Bar
rett, director general of the Pan
American Union, in a speech here
before a liberty loan mass-meeting,
predicted that within a year all
the Americans would be fighting
together against Germany.
eff Brazil enters the conflict, as
seems imminent" he said, two
thirds of the entire population and
five-eights of the total area of the
western hemisphere will be at war
with the common enemy. Can the
one-third of population and three
Fights of area, stand against the
psychological, sympathetic and eco
nomic appeal of their sister peoples
and countries having similar inter
ests, similar instincts, similar gov
eminent and similar destiny?
THAT the whole western hemis-
phere will be directly engaged in
the war before another year passes
is now not only possible, but very
probable. 1.-THE tide of Pan-Ameri-
canism is undoubtedly rising with
a new power and an opportunity to
save world civilization and at this
hour it looks as if the flood would
carry all America with It,"
