THINK LLOYD GEORGE
DEPARTURE MEANS
IRISH CRISIS BETTER

LONDON. June Announcement
that Prime Minister Lloyd George
will leave London tonight to remain
away a week encourages the belief
that there is some improvement in the
Irish situation. He will go to Cric-
cieth to participate at war memorial
exercises tomorrow. The gravity of
conditions in Ireland is emphasized,
however. by the summoning of the
Earl of Cavan, chief of staff, by the
cabinet and the Introduction of the
Earl of Balfour into the cabinet con
ferenceS.
Southern forces have been masSed
at certain points along listers Dor
ders with the apparent intention OF
invading the north. This, together
with the new outbreak of outrages in
Belfast has caused concern.
Sir James Craig. the Ulster premier
is understood to have emphasized in
his interviews with the cabinet the
magnitude OF the Sim Fein forces
concentrated along the border and tc
have expressed fear for the safety OF
Londonderry.
| Collins Not Responsible
/ Michael Collins, head of the Provi
! sional Irish free state government /:
said to have assured the government
| that he is nowise responsible for this
I menace.
It is also reported that the UlsteI
premier is pressing the governmen
/ to order the British forces in Ulste
to attack and scatter the Sim Feil
/ concentrations.
Another point contributing to tn
governments difficulties is the pro
posed new Irish constitution provide
! under the treaty. This, it is said, ten
porariIy overshadows the Collins-Dt
Valera political agreement announce
ment of which precipitated the callin
of the conferences here, and the la
ter pact may cease to be difficulty
the terms of the constitution can b
agreed upon.
Reports. however, are current thu
the constitution as drawn up in Dul
, lin and brought here for submission I
the cabinet is unacceptable.

Various Sections

The largest crowd that has
ever attended a dance in Gold
field in recent years is expected
there Friday night for the an

received. The hall is being dec
GRATED. The first of several
truckloads of trees that will be
part of the setting for the affair
was received Monday. The ball
and club rooms will be elaborate

Because Of the large crowd
that is expected the top floor will
be thrown open for the first
time in several years, but it is
expected that even with this ex.
ira space the building will be
over crowded. The Elks, real
izing that the building will be
iammed, have decided to keeE
down to minimum the at.
tendance of children and 81 will
be charged for children under
IA who attend. The extra lady
will be charged so cents.
The one, great and only, far
famed and justly noted mountain
general, Death Valley Scotty, will
honor Goldfield and the Elk

TOnOph Extension Heads List
With Substantial Increase
Over Former Shipments

Production of bullion in the To-
nopah district is being gradual
ly increased The Tonopah Ex-
tension set new mark this morn
ing when % bars of bullion were
consigned by express to San
Francisco, containing 925O0
ounces and having a value of
100000, This covered opera
tons at the big milling plant for
the last half of November, which
made the production for the en-
tire month total $l98,0OO.
West End Consolidated sent
out its shipment Monday morn
ing, which was the result Of the
cleanup. of the mill for the last
half of November. The con
Signment consisted of 33 bars
and weighed Gallo ounces and
had value of $75,368, as
against $64,l10 for the first fif-
teen days of the month. This
would make the production for
the month of November total
$142,752.
That the mines of the Tonopah
district will proceed to increase
their production during the com.
ing year seems to be certainty
The Tonopah Extension Mining
company plans increasing the ca.
pacity of the milling plant from
400 to 500 tons daily, and in
view of the wonderfully rich ore
reserves showing throughout the
various workings, it is assured
that a heavy production will
continue in order and that q
substantial earning will at all
times result for the treasury OF
the corporation which means
dividends for the stockholders.
