pope : peace proposals was re-
garded here today as rinally set
Ting the question Of dealing with
present German rulers unc0n-
quered and uncurbed at home.
The president makes il clear that
a lasting and durable peace can be
negotiated only by a complete IN
derstanding with the German peo-
pie and not alone on unstable
guarantees of the existing gov
ernmcnt.
The note indicates thai the
American government does not
intend post bellum reprisals on the
German people, but desires in the
interests of world peace that they
be allowed 10 share in interna-
tional economic opportunities, "if
they will accept equality and not
seek domination. y
The note with its unequivocal
denunciation of German military
autocracy is believed TO reflect ac-
curateIy the attitude Of the allied
governments. The general tenor
of the communication had been
anticipated, but diplomats were
surprised to find in il virtual APP
peal to the German people TO
strive for emancipation from mill
tary control aud become fitted TO

HORNSILVfR ATTRACTING
new CAPITALISTS
INTO FIELD

Hornsilver continues to attract
much attention among mining men.
The latest company to enter that
field with a determination to make
a success of a promising prospect, is
known as the Grand Central Gold
Mines company, managed by Tim
Connolly, for years a successful op-
orator at Goldfield, and who was
in charge of the Francis Mohawk
Mining and Leasing company when
that concern was one of the best
dividend payers in Esmeralda coun-
ty.
The property owned by the Grand
Central Mines company consists OF
three patented lode mining claims
known as the Grand Central, Grand
Central No: 1 and Grand Central No.
2, embracing an area of about 60
acres of mineral land. Three shafts
have been sunk on the veins in
question, which have depth of 175,
10 and 130 feet, respectively. The
veins have a strike of N. 80 W., with
a dip of 70 degrees to the north.
Numerous cross veins show stringers
of ore, and the material is highly OK
idized. The metallic contents of the
ore show silver chlorides, better
known as hornsilver.
The main working shaft of the
mineral estate in question is on the
Grand Central lode No. /, the shaft
having vertical depth of $50 feet,
the footwall of the vein having been
followed From the bottom of the
workings a drift has been extended
for so feet to the west to undercut
the ore shoot which was exposed on
surface and in the east drift run
from the 150-foot level of the incline
shaft. This incline lies 200 feet to
the west of the main workings.
Production from the Grand Central
property has consisted of about 500
tons of ore having value of $33 a
ton, the gross production having ag-
gregated $4,000. Shipments were
made in the old Stewart mill near
Ida and to Candelaria, which ne
cessitated haul of so miles.
Production was suspended owing
to the heavy transportation charges,

Vernon has been carrying forward
development on two different groups
of claims and has succeeded in ship

Reports from the Atlanta mine
are to the effect that the regular
production is being maintained.
