TO ADMIT i. S.

HONOLULU, T. H., May 20
That the covenant of the league of
nations will be modified to permit the
entry Of the United States to the
league and that the United States
eventually will join the league were
the opinions expressed here recently
by Baron Tanetazo Megata, Japanese
representative in the league councils,
who passed through on hs way home
to Japan.
Baron Megatas opinions were ex-
pressed after he had read President
Hardlng's pronouncement of the
league in his recent message to con-
gress. The league is still young,
said the baron, and, no doubt, has
many defects, but already it has
done powerful work l regard the
league as a most powerful agent for
peace and believe it will become
more and more potent"
Baron Megata refused to make any
comment on the questions involved
in the ALLEGATION OF the island OF zap
to Japan by the supreme allied
council.

White CAPS At
MANHATTAN IS
CUTTING Ledge

Manhattanites are greatly excited
over the report that the west cross
cut from the SOO-foot level of the
White Caps mine is penetrating the
great ledge whence such important
discoveries have been made in the
past on the 300 and 500 foot levels.
While the extent of the discovery
cannot at this time be foretold, it
is believed that the ore shoot will
be found extending to the 500 foot
point and if such proves to be the
case, then a new era will dawn for
the Pine Tree gold camp
With the firing of the round Of
holes on Wednesday night a tremen-
dous flow of water was encountered
and conditions in general are identi-
cal with those that occurred when
the vein matter was being penetrat-
ed on the 5OO-foot level.
1t will be several days before the
water can be controlled, and in the
meantime those Interested in the fu-
ure of the mine and district are
living in state Of expectancy. In
the event the great orebOdy is found
to be persistent down to the S00-foot
point, which seems to be a certainty,
then the big milling plant of the
White Caps company will shortly be
brought into commission
1t became necessary to drive the
west crosscut over 500 feet to reach
the objective, and surveys have
proven correct to the minutest de
tail On the 50O-foot level the vein
matter was found to be over 40
feet wide, and there is every reason
to believe that a similar state OF af
fairs will be found to exist on the
lower level
With pay ore Of the above width
exposed on the SOO-foot level, there
is made available for stopping 500
feet of territory which should yield
an enormous tonnage during future
years
The big vein was encountered
within 200 feet Of the end lines Of
the Consolidated property, which, in
effect. means that in due time the
latter property will be undergoing
extensive development with almost
positive assurance that a heavy pro
ductlon Of gold ore will follow
Future exploration OF ground on
both the White Caps and ConsoIi,
dated estates will be watched with
interest by all having the best
wishes for Manhattan at heart

COAL AT YERINGTON

The development of coal properties

ed a point where 1t will be CONNER

next winter. This will be the first
section in Nevada to be supplied

Why not have TonOpah follow in
the footsteps of Yerington? There
is an abundant supply of coal at
Coaldale at the Darms coal mines
of a high quality, which can be laid
down In Tonopah at a much lower
cost than the Utah product
