BY FIRE

The burning of the i2,OOO-ton
mill of the Nevada Consolidated

Cured last Sunday according to the

was soon beyond control. The i'm

TO the report in the Times, was be-

over-heated motor although no one

The loss to the Company is esti-

According to the statement of the
Times based upon an interview with
General Manager C. b. Lakenan, the
