Mir. Shell left last night for Tonopah, where he is heavily interested in sev- eral of the big silver producers. Mr. Shell is feeling pretty good over the fact that one of the companies in which he is interested recently sold 500,0O0 ounces of the white metal at the dollar mark, the silver being con. signed to the Chinese government.
