Early-day predictions in connec-
tion with the development of the
Mayflower mine, in the Pioneer dis
trict, apparently are about to be
realized in full measure. Results
of recent work in the mine have
been of a highly gratifying charac-
ter and the property is now in bet
ter condition and showing ore over
a greater area than ever before in
its history.
During the past week the COM
pany's mill has been placed in oper-
alton and the plant will soon be
brought up to full capacity, large
tonnage of ore having been made
available as a result of recent de-
yelopment work at various points in
the mine. On the 200, 800 and 400
foot levels an excellent grade OF
milling ore is now being broken
from deposits that are apparently
of great magnitude and of good uni
form value.
In the progress of stopping recent
ly from the 300-foot level, in the
main vein, ore of shipping grade
was exposed, much of this product
showing free gold in liberal guam
tity in the quartz. AS soon as this
ore appeared preparations were
made for shipping it to the smell
ter. Heavy lumber was ordered by
telegraph and a large ore chute
was built for the purpose OF con-
yeying the ore from the main tram
to a good road at the mill.
A representative of the United
States Smelling & Refining COM
pany visited the Mayflower proper
ty during the week and as a re-
suit of his visit arrangements have
been concluded with his company
to handle the shipping ore. which
runs high in silica This ore is now
being hauled to the railroad ship
ping point, two and half miles
distant, and it is planned to ship
several carloads to the smelter
during the present month.
Ore of excellent shipping grade
in sufficient quantity to fill the
largest type of car has been placed
in the shipping bin at the railroad
ard will be sent forward to the
smelter upon the arrival of the car
which has been ordered from the L.
" & T. company's Goldfield office
In one of the new Slopes ore OF
good grade has been broken for
length of 40 feet along the vein and
both ends are still producing splen-

that the shale-latite contact zone has
been but little explored up to the
present time and that this most i'm
portant ore-channel of the district
still offers almost unlimited possi-
bilities for half-dozen properties
embracing that part of the contact
zone that is directly related to the
main vein system of the district.
Much of the preparatory work con-
Quoted here in the past has had for
it's objective the prospecting of this
zone and there are good grounds
for the belief that this work will
yield important results in the near
future. At two points sinking to

tact between the latte and granite.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Washington. Feb. 12.- President
Wilson addressing Congress in joint
session Monday replied to the recent
speeches by German Chancellor Won
Hertling and the Austrian foreign
minister. Count Czernin.
Chancellor Won Hertling's statement.
the President said. was very vague
and confusing and leads to practically
no conclusion. 1t was very different
in tone from Count Czernin. which. the
President said. had q very friendly
tone.
The President reiterated that the
United States had no desire to inter
fere In European affairs and would
disdain to take advantage of any in
ternal weakness or disorder to impose
her own will upon other people,"
All the way through the President
drew q parallel between the pro.
nouncements OF Chancellor Hertling
and Foreign Minister Cxernin and his
hearers drew the conclusion that the
President decidedly considered Ger
nin's utterances az being more favor
able that Hertling's.
"Czernin seems to see the funda-
mental elements Of peace with clear
eyes and does not seek to obscure
them" said the President.
"Count Cxernin." said the President.
probably would have gone much far
ther had 1t not been for the embarrass.
ment Of Austria's alliances and Of her
dependence on Germany"
Again. the President reiterated that
the United States was in the war and
would put forth its whole strength ''in
the war Of emancipation"
The test Of whether 1t Is possible
for the belligerents to 60 on compar-
ing views, said the President. was sim
pie and obvious and the principles to
be applied. he said. were as follows:
Each part Of the final settlement
must be based upon essential Justice
to bring . permanent peace.
Peoples and provisions are not
to be bartered about like chattels to
establish a balance Of power.
3-Territorial settlements must be
for the benefit OF people concerned
and not merely adjustment Of rival
states claims.
4-Well-defined national aspirations
must be accorded all possible satisfac-
ton.
"A general peace upon such founda-
tions can be discussed" said the Pres
ident. until such peace can be Sc
cured we have no choice but to 90
on"
These general principles. the Pres
ident said, have been accepted BY
everyone except the military auto.

TNHERE was SO large an entry 10 the

that It proved impossible to play all
of the frst-rouud matches on the hrst
day and about twenty-five passed over
TO Tuesday. Among these were Harold
Weber. of Toledo, and Mr.. Remer' OF

about an equal number OF the second

It happened that Outmet did not play

A HANDICAP of six pounds in weight
"A proved too much for Joe Lynch at
the Olympia last night and the little
New Yorker. who surprised the boxing
world n few weeks ago when he knocked
out Kid williams. was forced to DOW
to the prowess of Benny Valger after SIX
hard rounds in the wind-up. Lynch
fought gamely from start to finish, but
yalger was too big for him. 1t might
also be added that Benny Is very shifty
person and has quite a little clever
ness. Those two attributes, combined
with a rangy, tantaliZing and accurate
left hand. kept Joseph In trouble most
of the time The New Yorker also stop
ped Nalgers hand with his face ana AT
the end was bleeding freely from the
nose and mouth.
Last nights bout proved conclusiVely
the value of a few pounds when l'tte
fellows meet. The match was nlaue at
lis ringslde and forfeit or sloo was
posted by each boy Johnny oilVer came
over from New York to weish theh Il
and announced that Lynch tipped tne
beam at III, while the best Nalger could
do was 1913. Eddie Meade, Lynch $
manager. refused to take the forfeit

circles--and consented TO go through
with the match lie showed good sports

the first round. aud soon had Joe bleed
ing. The blood was smeared all over ms
face and, while the boy wasnt injured
IL looked as If he were taking a terrible
,acing. Lynch kept after his, man. now
ever. and never let up in the SIX ROUNDS.
Time and again he would launch himseit
at his heavier opponent, only 10 De
beaten back. In the early rounds Benny
landed several right-hand smashes.
which annoyed Joseph considerably, but
at the end he was satisfied with his lead
and used his left most of the time.
Lynch nossesses a wicked right hook.
which landed only once in the bout. In
the fourth round he let one go which
landed flush on Nalger's chin and Benny
was sent back on his heels. Joe was
unable TO follow his advantage, however,
and his opponent quickly recovered.
Lynch took "A good beating, but his rep
