this work, drifts have been extended
to the southwest on the 932-foot lev
ell, following both walls of the main
vein, and cross-cuts have been 9 art-
cd to explore the vein in this terri
tory, in the western part of ;he
Paloverde claim. A large amount
of development work is being per-
formed by the company on its Cop
per Mountain property and the re-
suits of this work have stimulated
the belief that the mine has poten-
t.alities for the making of \ grea:
copper producer.
Silver Pick Cons.
Work started recently on the
700-foot level of the main Silver
Pick workings, southwest of the
shaft, has resulted in opening an
orebody of good promise. The gen.
eral average of the ore now in sight
is low, according to a statement by
President Herman Zadig, who in
spected the mine during the week,
but many good assays have been
obtained from picked samples, some
running we'll over 500 per ton in
gold and copper. The company is
now considering a plan to sink the
main shaft at least another 200 feet
below it's present depth of 100
feet.
Reorganized Blue Bull
Ore of fairly good grade, accom-
panied by seam of h~igh-grade ma
~terial, has been exposed in the new
work of the Blue Bull company, on
the Pig claim and in the northern
part of the big property. This work
Is being conducted through the
Simmerone shaft and is in ground
formerly worked under lease by the
later company. The drift on the
15O-fot level has been for some dis
lance in quartz of excellent appear
ance.
Cracker Jack Mine
A change in the character of the
formation exposed by the east ross
cut on the 320-foot level of the
Cracker Jack indicates that the
work is now entering the Rabbit
Trail vein, which has been it's OBJ
~jective. Much interest attaches to
the work at this point, as good ore
was found in groupings of this vein
and near the surface. Drifts ex-
tended south on the main Columbia
Mountain fault vein, farther west,
have shown quantities Of low-grade
ore. carrying gold, silver, copper
and zinc.
Great Bend Mine
A steady and highly profitable
production is being made from the
Great Bend mine and work on both
main levels in the vein, as we'll as
In the newer raise from the bottom
level, has resulted in opening a sub
stantial tonnage of good shipping
ore. The new orebody on the 800
foot level has been opened for some
so feet along the strike of the vein
and appears to be of great size and
of uniformly good average value.

p. c. w, st. Joseph, Mo.-Little
or nothing in the way of news has
been obtainable for some time past
regarding operations of the Nevada
New Mines company at Rawhide,
but at last reports the company was
operating through it's deep shaft
and was treating ore in substantial
quantity in its mill. The name of
the present manager is unknown
here, former manager King having
taken charge of leasing operations
on the Copper Mountain property,
east of Luning, according to reports
here. 1t is probable hat a state
ment outlining the present activities
of the company could be obtained
by addressing the company's Reno
office or the manager at Rawhide.

President to Act Under Au-

.byCongress- Bridge Build
ing Dealt Hard Blow.

No more skyscrapers are to be built
during the war. The steel will be COM
mandeered by the government and used
to construct ships.
Two types of vessels will be turned
out-destroyers to hunt submarines. and
merchantmen, built on a standard pat
tern. to carry food to the allies
That President Wilson will act under
the authority recently conferred upon
him by Congress and divert every ounce
Of steel to government ship building.
was the statement made at the Navy
Department yesterday.
1t further was declared that no more
OF the great bridges which have made
American engineers famous the world
over will be built during the duration OF
the war This steel also will be put into
the furnaces for ship demands.
Prepared for Protests.
The administration is prepared. it is
understood, to meet all protests by build
ing corporations and the building trades
union. Men formerly employed in steel
work on skyscraPers and bridges will be
put into the shipyards.
The Navy Department is working in
close cooperation with Gen. George w.

ton. on the scheme. A naval attache
has been attached to Col. Goethals' Of
nee.
The usual infux Of steel for govern
ment work will be employed for destroy
ers now on the ways and other ships
many OF them capital battleships and
battle-cruisers-alrcady under construc-
ton.
Another OF the governments policies Is
to concentrate every energy on turning
out destroyers rather than rushing work
on the larger ships The great super
Dreadnoughts and battle-cruisers are not
being neglected, but their construction Is
being carried on at comparatively low
speed compared TO the tremendous energy
which is being devoted to destroyer build
ing.
Smaller Craft Essential.
1t Is pointed out that destroyers and
small patrol craft are vitality necessary
now to combat the submarine, while
there would be no opportunity for the
larger ships to get into action, as the
German navy is sealed within its har-
bors.
The enemy America has to meet is the
submarine, it Is pointed out, and the part
of policy is to direct all work to the
one end OF driving the U-boat from the
seas.
The determination of the Navy Depart
ment to concentrate on destroyer and
merchant ship construction was due al
most entirely to the recommendations
and arguments of the British and French
naval experts who accompanied the Bal
four and Niviani missions here.
