always been regarded as holding
most important possibilities and the
results of recent development wOrN
have more than realized the expecta-
tions of the management.
The property of the Sunset Mining
& Development company embraces a
large acreage upon which a large
amount of development work has
been performed and in which large
quantities of medium and low-grade
mill ore have been exposed. The ore
is free-milling and is treated at un-
usually low cost and the orebodies
are of such a character that ex-
traction is effected with little ex-
pense.
The property is equipped with a
modern, efficient milling plant of
substantial capacity and through the
recent purchase of a water system
the company now has a water sup
ply more than adequate for all posi-
BILE future requirements. Ore of
commercial grade is being blocked
out in large volume and there is
every indication that the company
will shortly be placed upon a profit
earning basis,

parties who have taken over the
Grand Deposit group are working a
considerable force in the develop

They have installed a gasoline
hosting plant, and are doing syste-
matte mining which is bound to
bring results. They recently ship.
ped one car of ore which averaged
10 per cent copper and II ounces
in silver per ton, and they have
other ore of a similar grade ready
for shipment. However, the great
wealth of the property exists in ores
of lower grade which will in al,
probability be treated on the ground
A suitcase has been given by the
operators on the Kansas group OF
claims, upon which development
work is steadily progressing With
good results.
There is also considerable activity
being shipped to the smelters of

HAS NOTABLE DISCOVERY

ed the property since the find was
made.
Development work has been in
progress on this property for six
months. A vertical shaft, starting
at a point $50 feet down the noun
tainside from the old tunnel, was
SUM 173 feet, penetrating rhyolite
similar to that of the Tonopah dis
trict, and a cross-cut was driven
south 1876 feet, cutting the ore-bear-
ing zone about 800 feet below the
tunnel. In this work one vein has
been cross-cut for a width of 25
feet and assays taken from this vein
have returned from $22 to 500 per
ton, chiefly in silver.
A considerable quantity of ore
from this vein has been placed or
the dump and a sample of the dump
ore, taken by visitors from Gold
field, assayed $50 OF. gold and
100.10 OF. silver, or a total value of
SOLOS per ton. Surface geology is
described as being composed of vol
canic flows, underlain at no great
depth by ~ore-bearing formations
identical with those of the Tonopah
district.
1t is said that a well-defined belt,
showing strong mineral indications,
car be traced for several miles in an
easterly direction, along the north
slope of Gold Mountain. Where the
veins crop at the surface through
the later rhyolites, which form the
Gaping of the true ore-bearing for
nation, gold is the metal principally
in evidence and the ore-shoots are
small and irregular in point of value.
These ore-shoots are found mostly
where cross veins intersect the main
belt or zone.
Pay ore was found in the Tonopah
Gold Mountain district, also known
as the Gold Reef district, prior to the
discovery of Goldfield, but the dis
trict Vas practically abandoned as a
result of the exodus of mining men
to Goldfield. Work In the district
since hal time has been confined al
most exclusively to the operations of
the Tonopah Divide comp ny and to
development work conducted by
Judge Marvin Arnold on the Gold
Seam group, James Grimes on the
Toggery group and Charles Kiel-
hofer on the claims owned by him.
The Tonopah Divide property was
owned at an earlier period by the
Tonopah Gold Mountain Mining COM
pany and is reputed to have made a
production, under company and
lease operations, of between $4,000
and 500, 600. A. H. Elftman of
property in 1904-19O5. Later the
property was acquired by the Tono-
pah Divide company, which was or
ganized and controlled by George
Wingfield, r. b. Govan, H. C.
Brougher and w. G. Douglas.
Subsequently the interests of
Wingfield and Govan were pur-
chased by Brougher and Douglas,
who started last April the work Thai
has resulted in exposing pay ore.
William Waters, a mining mar we'll
known in southern Nevada. is fore
nan in charge of the work. 1t is
believed that the discovery will
stimulate development work through
out the Gold Mountain-Gold Reef
district and the Klondyke district, a
short distance to the southeast.

ATLANTA WILL SPEED UP
Continued from Page oneD

CONTINUED from rage OneI
Atlanta mine will be in condition
to supply a large tonnage and to
maintain a highly profitable aver
age in its output. Present hopes,
however, are conferred in the open
ing of large bodies of higher-grade
ore below the present deepest levels
and in adding at deeper levels to
the existing large reserves of mill
grade ore.
Mining authorities best qualified
to express an opinion maintain
with the utmost confidence that
deposits of great size and value will
be found in the course of the deep
development work now being carried
forward by the company.

HAS PRODUCED RICH ORE
Continued from. Page One)

NSOIllIuCu oSO OAOt
$4,000 was produced from the
ground at that time.
The property is now being work
ed by P. H. McDermitt and H. Jes-
ter, who have continued a drift on
the 1%0O-foot, or bottom level, to a
point IS feet from the shaft, where
they are now prosecuting the vein
ard doing development work which
has placed in sight a number of
small ore-shoots of exceedingly high
grade. None of this ore has been
shipped, but several tons has been
saved and left in the mine, ready to
be hoisted.
This is all of high grade and as
far as known no ore of low grade
has ever been found in the mine,
all the ore-shoots, varying during
recent work from a few inches to a
foot, being of this character.
The last shipment was made Oct.
Is and consisted of "a tons, which
was sacked and shipped through
Goldfield. This shipment Melted
$500 per ton. The ore had been
saved for a long time up to some
months before the shipment was
made and the gradually climbing
price of silver finally led to ship
ment being made.
One closely sorted ton Melted
$46S.5S after payment of $46.5O
for hauling and treatment charges.
The ore was saved in work On the
50-foot level and contained a small
quantity of lead and gold.
The ore-shoot from which this
shipment was made apparently was
displaced by a fault at the 50-foot
level, according to the sheriff, and
when this was found, it was decided
to sink the shaft another so feet.
After this had been done, a drift
was extended and ore again was
found at a point almost directly I'M
der where it was cut on the level
above.
The vein has been cross-cut at
this point and a second vein has
been found. Both contain small
bodies of ore of the usual high
grade, which have been cut in ex-
ploration work. An effort is now
being made to thoroughly explore
this part of the mine, although ore
for another shipment is gradually
being accumulated in the work.
Sheriff ingalls, believes that the
level will unite at greater depth
and says that if silver again goes
to a dollar and shows indications
of staying lear that price, he will
start work on a large enough scale
to determine the worth of the pro-
perty and will sink the shaft to
greater depth.
He has also decided to grant
leases on the property and believes
the ground offers opportunities for
leasing by persons OF moderate
means. The mine is we'll equipped
and hosting is done with an eight
horsepower gasoline hoist.
The property consists of two
claims and excellent surface indi-
cations are found at a number of
places at which no work has been
done.
The present lessees have done a
large amount of work without be-
ing rewarded by the finding of a
body of ore of appreciate extent.
but are continuing to more than
pay their expenses and believe that
the chances are now better than
ever before for finding a body from
which a number of good shipments
car be made, all that is necessary
fC. them to make a cleanup, con-
sidering the grade of ore in which
they now are working.

U. s. OFFICERS HOPEFUL,

Denies Army Mission Made Pes
simistic Report on War
Situation
WASHINGTON. July 20.


A published statement representing
United States army officers JUS, back from
a long visit of inspection along the western
front in France as being pessimstic as
to the outcome of the effort of the Allied
armies to make headway against the Ger
formal declaration that no mem
Der of the military mission holds the views
attributed to the mission in the publica-
tion. Members of the mission preferred not
to express their views for publication, but
II is not violating any confidence to say
that they did not look upon the outcome of
the great war in any pessimistic way.
Secretary Bakers formal denial was
given to the press through the COM
mittee on public information. That it was
intended as more than an ordinary state
ment was attested by the fact that 1t was
signed by the Secretary of War
1t may be said that some of the American n
army officers just returned from the French
front are confident that the Germans cannot
break the Allied line and are just as satis-
fled that the German line will have to give
way before the Allied offensive. The British
forces these officers found to be in prime
condition and full of desire to keep up the
offensive against the German lines which
they were driving back gradually There
was no possibility. it was said, that the
Germans could break the French front one
opinion expressed. although 1t is not as
serted that this represents the general view,
was that the assault on the French lines
by the armies of the Crown Prince was in

m CITY GIVES WORD,
DANIELS WILL MOVE
Navy Department Ready to step
in and Protect Men
Against Vice

The Navy Department is ready to adop'
measures which will protect every sailor
and marine at the Philadelphia Navy faro
the moment the local authorities notify the
Navy Department that they are unable 10
correct the present evil conditions.
This phase of the vice situation was out
lined to the Mayor in a letter sent to him
by Secretary of the Navy Daniels
To a request to make public the letter
sent to Mayor Smith, the Navy Department
has issued the following statement:
In answer to an inquiry Secretary
Daniels said today that he had received
n letter from Mayor Smith. Of Philadel-
phia, with reference to the correction or
conditions in the vicinity of the Phila-
delphia Navy Yard, and that he had re-
piled to the Mayor. In his letter Mayor
Smith said several arrests had been
made that many OF the persons mem
toned in the Navy Departments report
had been arrested previously and that
some had served sentences. He requested
that the representatives OF the Navy De-
partment who made the investigation be
directed to appear at the hearing to be
held on the 27th of this month and sub
nit testimony.
Secretary Daniels has advised Mayor
Smith that the Navy Department does
not feel that II can go further at this
time than to Call to the attention of the
authorities of the state Of Pennsylvania
the prevalence OF the conditions com
planned of: that this department cannot
assume to itself the functions of the
police officials and furnish evidence for
the issuance of warrants, a duty which
properly belongs to the police officials
The Secretary said. further. that the con-
IN, hn ttnxy
related to Governor Brumbaugh: that
representatives of the department having
found it possible to discover these facts,
they also can be discovered by the police
of Philadelphia. and that he believed
with vigilance and action on the part of
the city officials conditions can be cor
rected
It is essential, however. he added that
a clean and wholesome environment of
the men stationed at Philadelphia be
established and maintained. If the gov
ernments Of Pennsylvania and Philadel.
pha notify the Navy Department that
they are unable to bring about this con-
dition, the Navy Department will then
have to adopt measures which will safe
guard the young men intrusted to its care.
Mayor Smith has been advised that in
such contingency the Navy Department
will take what action may he necessary.
Mayor Smith still refuses to divulge the
contents of the communication received
from Secretary Daniels.
The Mayor stamped as "lie" the report
that he had asked to have a special Fedora
attorney appointed to represent the Govern.
ment at vice hearings.
In relation to the special message to the
Mayor from Secretary Daniels, rumors were
current around City Hall that the Mayor
had been flayed owing to the failure of the
recent attempted vice crusade

means of getting sufficient lumber to the
site In order to carry on the work rapidly
and the probability of ordering some of
the "fookies" to the camp within the next
two weeks The first question was the
principal one of the inspection. At the
present time, except for an unusual number
of mosquitoes, the sanitation is excellent,
according to the commander. The men also
complain that they are pestered with flies.
Effective methods will be applied in the
near future to get rid of these pests per-
manently.
Colonel Lawton also looked over" the
work done by the Pennsylvania company of
engineers and the motor transportation
corps These men have now been placed
on the work of making survey of the
properties adjoining the carrp proper.
