Men Were Caught LIN Fire Box Of Lo-
connective When Stay Bolt Gave
Away

Gus Pappas, q Greek, who was en-
ployed in the Western Pacific shops
at Wendover, was scalded so severely
when at work In the nrebox of q loco
motive that he died within q few
hours afterward. j. e. Hodson, who
was working with him, was also killed
by the steam. The accident was
caused by a stay bolt giving away. /.
The men were enveloped in the es-
Gaping steam and their rescuers were
forced to draw their bodies out of the
narrow firebox with hooks. Hodson
and Pappas were at once taken to
Salt Lake City in a specialtrain. Hold
son died in the ambulance on the way
to the hospital from the depot and
Pappas died a few hours after herwas
placed in his bed at the hospital.
At the time Of the accident the en-
CINE in whteh the men were working
is said to have carried over a hun
dred pounds of live steam. Although
the fire had been turned on in the
boiler and the firebox a cool enough
for them to work in. there yet re-
manned enough steam in the boiler to
scald the two men to death when the
stay bolt gave way. Blinded and
~shrieking with pain the two men
could not find their way out Of the
trap and soon succumbed. Those
who got them out of the boiler were
unable to get to them and were
obliged to grope about in the depths
of the firebox with hooks before they
finally succeeded in locating and drag
ging the two men into the air.

DISCOVERY IS HELD
ESSENTIAL TO CLAIM
Copper Canyon Placer Cases De-
cided By United States
High Court

The Supreme Court of the United
States has reversed the Circuit Court
Of Appeals in the Copper Canyon
placer cases. The decision is of con-
siderable Importance to the mining
industry Of Nevada and of the whole
country. The cases we're tried be-
fore Judge Harrington with a jury,
and Judge Harrington instructed the
jury that a discovery was an essen
tial requisite of a mining claim. The
Circuit Court of Appeals of the ninth
circuit reversed this decision, holding
in effect that two years possession
and working of a mining claim under
the statutes Of limitations of Nevada
was the full equivalent Of discovery
and all other acts of location. The
case was taken to the Supreme Court
of the United States by the placer
claimants upon writ of certiorari. and
the Supreme Court has today reversed
the Circuit Court of Appeals and in
its decision holds that a discovery is
essential to the validity Of a mining
claim and upholds Judge Harrington
in his instructions to the jury.
The Ease has been pending almost
six years in the courts, but this de-
cision is a final decision which ends
the litigation. The land in contro-
versy is located at Copper Canyon,
about % miles south Of Battle Noun
tain and is the richest placer deposit
ever discovered in Nevada. Both
sides have been prevented from work.
ing by an injunction, but the placer
claimants did work about eight days
on the Paystreak, and with meager
equipment and old fashioned rockers,
took out over $4,000 in the eight days
which they worked. The value of
the deposit has been estimated at be-
tween 100000 and 100000 net.
1t is expected that the placer owners
will commence work ON a large scale
within the next 80 days.-Reno Jour
nal.

port on the old Cortez mine, on the
Eureka-Lander County boundary line
and thirty-ive miles south of Beo-
wave on the Southern Pacific. This
noted old silver producer has been
taken v by the Consolidated Cortez
Silver Mines Company, of which +.
M. Manson is president.
Discovered in 1853, the Cortez has
an interesting history, which showsit
to have been among the richest silver
mines in the West, and the report of
Mr.. Turner discloses that II still holds
great possibilities fordevelopment be-
low the present deepest workings. In
1854 Simeon wenban, a pioneer Of the
district, having secured control of the
Arctic, Fitzgerald, Garrison, St. Louis
and other groups, formed the Tenabo
Mill & Mines Company. which from
that time until taken over by the Con-
solidated Cortez, owned the mine.
The late George Hearst formerly Uni
ted States Senator from California,
father of William Randolph Hearst,
was associated with wenban in the
company, which continued operations
until 1888.
In 1888 the operating control was
taken over by the noted Bewick,
Moreing Company of England. one
of the largest mining companies in
the world. but in 1891 this concern
discontinued work because Of a dis
agreement with Wenban. Shortly
after Wenban died, and the mine was
never reopened on a large scale, al
though the mines and mill tailings
were worked by lessees.
The total production, according to
figures of the United States geological
survey, was $40, 200, 600, while unof-
fetal figures vary from $4,000, 600 to
SIS 1000, 900. The property consists
of forty-two claims In a group, aggre-
eating 700 acres. Se~venty-five thous-
and feet of work has been done, ex-
elusive of stopping, according to Mr..
Turner's report. He estimates the
ore exposed in the mines and tall
ings piles to have a recovery value
of s1,737.O00.
In a brief history of the mine. Mr..
Turner says: THE district was once
the scene of great activity In silver
mining. Old roads. tramways, milling
plants and pipe lines, constructed at
great expense, are mute evidence of
this former activity. The Cortez mine
supported at one time a town of 600
people. A few Of the claims were To-
Gated as early as 1863, and the richer
ore was shipped on pack mules to
Austin for treatment. In 1886 a
teaching plant having a daily capacity
of about fifty tons was built. Silver
dropped in 1893 to 60 cents an ounce,
the ore became more refractory with
depth, and finally the mill shut down,
bringing operations to a close. In
1908 cyanide tanks were erected to
treat the tailings, but ignorance of
metallurgy and scarcity Of funds to
install the proper equipment result
ed in an extraction of only about so
per cent of the values"
The mine is situated on the south
west slope Of Tenabo peak, which is
the highest in the Cortez range, the
summit being 9,24O feet above sea
level. or about 1000 feet above the
valley. The mountain is scored by
deep canyons, having a succession of
cliffs. affording exceptional tunnel
