MINES REOPENED
WAR PRICES
West Kentucky's Abandoned
Spar and Zinc Deposits De-
veloped By New Capital.

War prices on lead and zinc ores
and fiourspar have caused a big re-
vival of mining throughout Critten-
den and Livingston counties where
are large deposits of these minerals.
Mines which had been abandoned
years ago because the low prices of
the minerals made them Improbable,
are being reopened and worked to
capacity. Much prospecting is also
being done for new mines and if the
present prices continue, and every in
cation is that they will, still further
activity is assured. Outside capital is
already being attracted and some per.
manest investments have been made.
The old Franklin mine has been
bought by an Illinois concern and has
not only been opened and worked
hard, but they have erected on the
surface a complete crushing and
washing plant through which the ore
goes. the minute it is hoisted from the
bottom Of the shaft. This mine is
primarily a flourspar deposit OF won
derfui thickness and high grade.
Considerable lead is 'iigged" out
and which is an important part of the
operations. The mine is six miles
from Marion, the shipping point, and
two seven ton trucks have been
bought to haul the crushed spar to the
ears. Each of these trucks can de-
liver forty to fifty tons in Marion per
day. or a car load each.
There are two other crushing and
separating plants in Marion which
handle the output Of the other mines
Of that section except that which is
Shipped in the rough. n
Still sRother reason for the increas-
cd demand and higher prices Of fluor
spar is that il is being used for so
many different things now. 1t is the
base from which acids is made and ii
Is being used in various ways as fiuor-
ide IN the making of chemicals. A
large manufacturing concern in the
north whose business was ruined by
The war has turned to making a fiuor-
ide which is claimed to be a splendid |
preservative of railroad cross ties and |
al sorts Of timber exposed to the
weather or sunkeu in the ground.

Chicago, Sept 10.--Damage by frost
in Minnesota, Wisconsin and Michi-
gan last night was not of disastrous
character, except as it affected corn
in southern Minnesota, it was said by
experts today. Southern Minnesota of
recent years has increased her corn
production considerably The crop
was three weeks late and the frost
three weeks early and this caught the
cereal full of moisture.
The important potato crop, of which
both states are heavy producers, is too
near maturity to suffer much. 1t was
predicted that the frost belt would

sumed here that the raid on the Phil

governments program for the pre-

through the mails OF anti-war propa-
ganda.
Indications are that similar action
will be taken with response to other
German language newspapers in vari-
Gus parts of the country. At least
six daily newspapers, printed in
German. are under surveillance.
Whether this action will take the
form of physical raids and arrests or
formal orders excluding the publica-
tions from the mails has not been dis

Stockholm Sept. 10,-The Social

1T is needless to draw special at

if the accusations are true, the
Swedish minister, Count Lowen, is
hopelessly compromised and the coun-
try's honor stained The matter is so
much worse because obviously there
were willing helpers at Stockholm"
The Conservative Dagblad sarcas-
tically advises Argentina, if the
charges are true, to follow the ma
jority of the South American states
in a courageous alliance with the en-
tente, and adds:
"The publication of the telegrams
which some American agent must
have stolen-the cipher being given
to the American press before being
handed to the Swedish legation at
lngton---is a method inconsistent
with traditional diplomatic courtesy
The words about exposing connections
which exist between Germany and
Sweden are considered gross and

ment. only slightly mitigated by the
hrase, at least in what concerns the
respective legations in Argentine.
