Tule Canyon Mill

A stamp mill to replace the Hunt.
ington mill formerly used has been
put in place at the ingalls, mine at
Tule canyon, being operated under
lease by Boz oicherding, Hill and Nc
Dermitt, and a cyanide plant has
been completed. These changes
will Increase the value of the ex-
tration from SO to IS per cent, ac.
cording to the lessees, which will
give a gross monthly production of
between $40, 900 and S25, 900. This
is expected to result from the treat
ment of not less than 20 tons of
$40 ore daily. 1t is believed the
new plant will be capable of treat
ing closer to rs tons Of ore daily.
The ingalls, mine was recently
reported to have been sold to Patsy
Clark, but it is the general opinion
that the deal will fail to be con-
cluded before the option expires. =

little about King Hiram-from whose
seaport of Tyre, 100 miles north Of
Jerusalem, most Of the material was
shipped for building the famous tefp

great stores of jewels, but none OF
them has be an preserved. and, as for

it was destroyed so utterly by the
Romans that no identifiable relics of
the kind have surviyed.-Philadelphia

WAR GAS DUMPED
FAR OUT AT SEA

Washington.-Th first lot of poison
gas which the American army devel-
oped and manufactured for use in kill
ing Germans in the great spring drive,
scheduled for 1919, but halted by the
signing OF the armistice, has been dis
posed Of by dumping it at sea. 1t con-
sisted of 100000 poison-gas shells and
some large drums or containers of poi
son gas, which have just been taken
to sea from Baltimore and dropped
into Davy Jones' locker. The gas dis
posed of consisted of mustard gas and
chlorpicrin gas, both of which are very
dangerous and could not be used COM
mercially.
The 100000 gas shells were brought
about two weeks ago. After other
cargo of the transport had been I'M
loaded the poison gas shells were
taken in the same transport from Bal
timOre out to sea q distance of be-
tween sixty and one hundred miles
and dumped deep enough not to have
any effect on navigation and far

Dangerous to Have Around.
The containers taken to sea and
dumped showed signs that they were
soon about to begin to leak, as re-
suit of chemical effect of the gas, and
in the interest of safety these were
taken to sea and disposed of under di-
rections given by Major General ST.
bert, head of the chemical warfare
service.
Ultimately all OF the poison gas iN
drums will be disposed of in this fash
ion, but until after the treaty of peace
is signed the army will be in no hurry
tG get rid of very valuable asset, and
1t is not the plan to take all this gas
to sea for dumping until after the
signing of the peace treaty, except in
those cases where, through containers
showing signs of leaking or for other
good reasons, it is considered in the
interest of safety to dispose of the
gas sooner.
General Sibert submitted to General
March, the chief of staff, memoran-
dunn in reply to the statement that
no American gas shells were fired at
the enemy.
"In June, 1915" the memorandum
asserts, "the following shipment of
gases in bulk was made to the Ameri-
can forces in France to be exchanged
for gas shell: Mustard gas, 10 tons;
chlorpicrin, 705 tons: phosgene, 48
The Washburn times. [volume] (Washburn, Wis.) 1896-1976, 1919-04-17

tons. Further shipment in bulk over
seas was stopped pursuant to a cable
gram from France dated July q, 1918,
the reason for this being that France
had no more extra gas shells to be
filled with American gas.
"There not being gas shell available
with suitable boosters and adapters,
the gas plants were not operated to
capacity. However, sales Of some ex-
cess gas were made both in England
and to France. England was sold 900
tons of chlorpicrin and 1858 tons of
phosgene. France was sold 300 tons
of chlorpicrin and LAOS tons of chic
rine, equivalent to 1,126 tons of phos
gene. Phosgene is so per cent chic
rine, and France furnished phosgene
shell in exchange for this chlorine. In
addition to the above 200 tons of mus
tard gas were shipped to England for
loading shell originally made for Rus
STA. These shells were never loaded,
and the gas, at least large part of
it, was utilized by the English in load
ing shell.
'There were, therefore, shipped to
Europe 1862 tons of gas, or its equiv
alent, which gas was largely loaded
into shell and used by the United

which is thought to be at least equal
to the total number of gas shells fired
by the American troops in action IN
France, showing that while American
gas was not actually fired in American
shells in the war, it was fired against
the enemy, and that America fur-
nished at least as much as she used.
"In addition to this, 1S,6OO llven
drums loaded with phosgene were
shipped to France. These contained
279 tons of gas, and some OF them, at
least, were fired at the enemy. AS

to France on August Z, 1918. On Au-

shells of the same caliber was made,
after which time shipments were made

available.
'sThe first shipment of shells would
have reached France by September

crate resources further enormously de-
pleted.
Run One Train Daily.
There will remain practically only
the one line of railway, that to Fiume,
through what was Austria but is now
a part of the new kingdom of the
Serbs, Croats and Slovenes. On ac-
count of lack of fuel one train day
is operating on this line.
Belgrade is practically cut off from
the interior of Serbia because Of de-
struction of the railways and the
shocking condition of the roads. There
are practically no young men in the
city. Those who were within two or
three years of the military age left
with the army in the winter of 1916
16.
They set out to make the retreat
down through Serbia and, as it proved,
over the mountains into Albania and
thence to Corfu. Something like one
in seven survived the trip.
There are practically no children
under three in Belgrade or elsewhere
In Serbia, for that matter. Midwives
have been in the unemployed class
for the last three years and will be
for a year to come, for the Serbian
army, what remains of it, is now in
the occupied part of what was Aus
tria-Hungary.
For no obvious reason, tuberculosis
is the king of terrors in Belgrade.
A tuberculosis death rate of $50 per
100000 is very exceptionally high in
America. Before the war the tuber-
culosis death rate in Belgrade reached
TIP, and during the Austrian occupa-
ton it reached the unheard-of figure of
] 1853.
Before the war Belgrade ap,
preached hundred thousand in popu-
lation. When the Austrians took it,
there were 10000. Another 10000
soon came back. At the present time
perhaps its population may be 10000
or $4,000. Some of the shops are open,
but nobody seems to be buying any
thing except where food is sold.
The only autos going about the
streets are those of the military and
a few of the high government officials.
These are used very sparingly, for
gasoline is almost unobtainable. The
water supply comes from wells and
has to be distributed by a pumping
station.

TO TUNNEL CHANNEL

London-Five years would be re-

England to France, according to an
authoritative estimate. 1t is said that
in ordinary times the cost OF the
work would be about $S0,0O0,O 900, but
in view of the increased cost Of labor
and materials, the expense involved
would, under present conditions. be
nearly $10O,OOO,OOO.
The Daily Mail claims to have def

French governments have agreed to
the construction of the tunnel, and
that the details now are. being dis

One feature that gives the authori-
