NEVADA RAND WILL
BUILD STAMP MILL
GOOD MILLING ORE HAS BEEN
EXPOSED IN
QUANTITY

The east drift on the 45O-foot
level of the Nevada Rand has en-
tered material carrying silver and
a little gold, and indications are
considered highly favorable for in
tersection of the continuation of the
rich vein exposed on the $50, $50
and $50 levels. Developments on
the upper workings continue highly
satisfactory.
1t has been definitely decided to
erect a ten-stamp mill, and ar
rangements are now being made to
finance construction of the plant.
1t is officially stated enough ore
of good grade is on the dumps to
cover the cost of mill equipment,
and that a large tonnage of milling
and shipping ore has been blocked
out on the main levels.
The Jumbo Extension company is
rapidly sinking to the ~ore-channel
at the Copper Mountain property,
and expects soon to be in a position
to conduct mining from three
shafts. Comprehensive drifting and
prosecuting continues from the
No. l shaft and it is reported ship
ments may be resumed in the neal
future. Several sets of lessees are
also prosecuting vigorous work and
opening ore in virgin ground.-Ga-

Keeping several thousand flags in

las here. The work is in charge of
the chief quartermaster, who CORES

flags of all kinds are made. He has
a staff of assistants and a large
supply of bunting brought along
from the New York navy yards

charthouse under the bridge.
Some flags are made here. Three

Sims recently when he took over
command of the station for a brief
period during the absence of the
British admiral. These were the
regulation vice-admiral's flag, con-
sisting of three white stars on a
field of blue. One was unfurled
from the staff over the admiral's
house and another flew from the
dockyard.
The third was kept in reserve.
The three were made in as many
hours in the tenders flagshop. Sew

made. AS the average American

not, the American Union Jack is

The major part of the flagmak-
er's work here is devoted to repair

in repair the thousands of signal

can d%estroyers keeps several men
busy nearly all their duty hours.
There are no facilities on the des-
troyers for this work.

RAY BAKER MAKES POSSIBLE A
DIRECT MARKET IN
NEVADA

WASHINGTON, ID. c.. Aug. 10
Because of the extreme rise in sill
yer prices, Director of the Mint Ray
Baker has authorized the minis at
New Orleans and Carson City to pur-
chase gold bullion on a basis of it's
fineness, disregarding the basis of
value of the silver content, formerly
used.
The order also applies to some of
the assay offices. Bullion contain
ing not less than n part gold nor
less than 500 parts base metals in a
total of 1000 parts, may be purchas-
ed under the new regulations.
Formerly only bullion containing
at least 10 times in gold the value
of the silver content has been pur-
chased.

REPAIRS TO CABLE

GERMANS CUT WIRES BoI
AMERICAN INGENUITY
CLOSED BREACH

LONDON, July %. Now the
cable staff at Tanning Island patch
ed up the cable which was cut by
the men of the German cruiser
Nurnberg, is told in the Zodiac
the organ of the Eastern and Asso-
ciated Telegraph company. which
says:
''The of a coral island
in the Pacific are naturally slight,
and the Germans had thought to
clinch the matter by towing the
several ends of the cable far apart.
But they reckoned without their
hosts. Hugh Greig, a member OF
the Tanning Island staff, although
entirely lacking experience in
handling or repairing cables, under
took the temporary repair of the
Fanning-Suva cable.
LAS there was no grapnel, he
used an ordinary pickaxe. By this
means and also by diving and work
ing under the sea to scure the cable
ends with ropes he managed to
raise them to the surface. But they
were still far apart, there was no
possibility of bringing them to-
gether and no spare cable was avail
able to fill the gap.
HE improvised RATS made with
planks and ordinary barrels and
with the cable ends securely fasten-
ed to those made a connection be-
tween them with ordinary covered
wire. 1t was across these RATS that
Tanning spoke again to Suva, trans
hitting the urgently awaited infor-
nation of her requirements for
repair"

FOUR-M|NUTE men
ARE PREPARING
FOR TALKS
GOLDFIELD COMMITTEE TO ACT
UNDER COUNCIL OF Ma
TIONAL DEFENSE

Acting under the public informa-
ton department of the council of
national defense, the Nevada state
council of defense, in common with
the councils of all other states, has
organized a department of -four
minute men," a national organiza-
ton of volunteer speakers for gov
eminent presentation of topics of
national Importance to moving-pic-
ture theater audiences. The de-
partment is authorized by President
Wilson, through the committee on
public information, to cooperate
with the government departments
for publicity on subjects connect
ed with the war.
The state "four-minute men" are
Judge P. A. McCarren, Judge Ben
w. Coleman, Judge j. A. Sanders,
Judge E. S. harrington, Hon. George
A. Cole, Hon. George A. Bartlett and
Hon. S. w. Bedford.
The Goldfield "four-minute men"
are A. H. Howe, J.. G.. Thompson
and NJ. A. Diskin and they have or
ganized with A. II. Howe as chair
man and J. G. Thompson as secre-
tary.
1t now becomes the duty of these
three men to organize a 'four-min-
ute men" chapter here and to enlist
the services of as many good speak
ers as possible to make four-minute
talks.
The talks need not necessarily be
made in moving-picture houses and
may be made at any public gather
ing, but the time rule is strict and all
talks must be confined to four min
utes. The aim is to reach a large
number of people in a short time
with small danger of the matter be-
coming stale in delivery.
The national committee consists
of the secretary of state, the secre-
tary of war, the secretary of the
navy, and George Creel, head of the
department of public information,
is chairman. All speaking author
lied by four-minute men is done
only by duly enrolled and properly
equipped speakers, receiving theil
assignments from duly authorized
agents. Introductory slides will be
used in connection with the talks.
Every talk is strictly limited to be
within the policy lines permitted by
Che department of public informa-
ton.
1t will be some time before the
local men will have their appoint
ments ready and have received in
formation necessary and before the
talks can be made, but if some night
within the next month a slide is
flashed on the screen at a local thea
ter, informing the audience that
John Jones will speak four minutes
on a subject of national importance.
He speaks under the authority of
the committee on public informa-
tion," the audience may be assured
that he will speak only four min
utes and that he is a government
agent, well equipped with informa-
ton.

CREW HURT
IN WRECK
Nortbbound T.. < &. Trail Leave
Track This Morning Near
K~londyke
ENGINMEN SUSTAIN
PAINFUL INJURIES
Six Freight Cars and Engine Are
In Ditch-Passengers r
Transferred

The outgoing Tonopah and Goid-
field passenger train was wrecked
this morning two miles tfis side OF
Klondyke. The entire freight equip
ment. consisting of six cars, left the
tracks with the engine and, falling
over a 1O-foot embankment, piled
ND and was badly wrecked.
Engineer P. D. Hill and Fireman
w. H. Ayres were injured, although
not seriously. The engineer was
cut and bruised On the scalp and
body and the fireman was pain
fully scalded when a steam pipe on
his side of the cab broke Both
men were placed in berths in the
Pullman car and taken to ST.
Mary's hospital. After Hills in
iuries were dressed he was taken
to his home and AyTes is still in
the hospital. No one else was in
jured.
That Hill and Ayres escaped with
their lives is considered remark
able. as the engine is a bad wreck
and the freight equipment, consist
ing of an oil car, two %gondolas and
three box cars, is piled in a heap
al the side of the track. A passen-
ger coach, two baggage cars and the
Pullman did not leave the rails
The engine did not overturn and
is standing at an angle 20 the
tracks. Striking the side of the cut
apparently held it upright. The
engineer and fireman jumped be-
fore it struck.
The accident is attributed 20 the
heavy rain of last night unGernlin
ing the track.
Apparently no rain fell last night
in the vicinity of where the wreck
occurred, as the surrounding
try is dusty, but it is evident that
there was a big cloudburst in the
hills nearby. Water swept down
from the hills and banking up in a
cut not far from the scene, ran in
a river over the rails.
1t is believed the accident vas
unavoidable, sas from a short dis
lance the track bed appeared to, be
solid.
Passengers on the wrecked train
were transferred to the incoming
train, which returned north and the
incoming passengers were transfer
red to the unchanged cars of the
wrecked train and hauled to Gold
field.
The wrecking train was sen out
at noon and railroad officials state
that the track will be cleared and
repairs made so that tomorrow
mornings train will be enabled to
leave on time.

mine, whose purpose is to connect
with the winze from the S50-foot

progress. 1t is the intention of SUI
p~erintendent Branch Smith to com

has been made. While the raise
work is in progress. the drift toward

and another shipment vas made this
week, too late, however, to obtain
the figures on its weight. This will
be included in next weeks report.

LOOKS TO LATIN AMERICA
FOR AID IN FOOD PROBLEM

The future food problem facing the
United States and its European allies
can be partially if not wholly solved
by help which can be given by the
countries of Central and South America,
in the opinion of John Barrett, direc-
tor of the Pan-American Union, out
nary to a special report to be submit
ted to the council of national defense.
He calls attention to the fact that
Latin America exported foods valued
at $774.o0o.O00 to the United States and
Europe during 1915 Such Quantity
of food. while not enough to entirely
supply this country and its allies in
Europe, will be sufficient to provide
against a deficit or shortage in the
production of the United States and Its
allies which might be fatal in an ulti-
mate crisis. Latin America should be
aided in it's efforts to provide food
stuffs by being supplied with the nee
essary capital, agricultural experts and
engineers. Mr.. Barrett points out
He calls attention to the unrealiZed
potentialities of banana production
and also stated that the numerous ex-
tensive plateaus and uplands of Latin
America can be utilized in raising inn
mense herds of cattle.
Director Barrett advises the appoint
ment Of a commission or committee of
experts in Latin American matters to
cooperate with the national council
in caring for this problem of food sup
ply and other phases of Latin American
economic coordination with the Unit
ed States in meeting war conditions

Plans Of Leaders.

Senator Overman, in charge of the
administration espionage bill, an
nounced today an effort would be made
to restore the press censorship section
to the measure before passage.
The section was stricken from the
bill Saturday by a vote of 80 to So.
Senator Overman said today Majority
Leader Martin, who voted then to
strike out, would vote to restore cen
sorship provision. He did not know
whether there would be other senators
in the same position.
One other democrat who voted to
strike out the section was said today
to be ready to follow the majority
leader. but republicans opposing the
censorship declared that two of that
party who had voted against striking
out were now prepared to vote against
censorship.
Another defeat for the provision,
however. will only. defer the admins
tration fight for 1t until the different
bills passed by the two houses get to
conference. which sits behind closed
