CASE BEFORE
LABOR BOARD
Workers Ask Definition

8-H0ur Day.

Chicago, Aug. 2S.- (By Associ-
ated Press) Hearing by the rail-
road labor board was begun to-
day on petition Of the United
Brotherhood OF Maintenance of
Way Employees and Railway Shop
Laborers on more than 100 rail-
roads asking an increase of min
imum wages from 23 cents to As
cents an hour, a virtual demand
for recognition of a basis eight
hour day, with time and one half
for overtime.
The submissions of the union
were expected to be predicated
upon the relation expected to be
shown between minimum wages
and the minimum cost OF living.
and 1t was reported the union
leaders planned to urge amend
ment Of the transportation act, to
Include a definition of the basis
for computation of the minimum
cost of living for railroad work
ers.
Recognition Refused
The first opposition to the union
submissions came when six east
fern railroads refused to recognize

All ireland Pays
Tribute At Craze
OF Michael Collins

Dublin, Aug. 2S.-(By Associ-
ated Press. Michael Collins was
laid at rest today in Glasnevin
after a demonstration of national
grief such as has been seldom seen
in the long centuries of Ireland's s
troubled history.
Arthur Griffith was buried with
all the honor due a great leader;
Collins went to the grave amid the
tears of nation that worshipped
him personally as a gallant young
patriot in whom were combined
all those traits which Irish men
hold dear. While immense throngs
filled the great cathedral and lined
the route to Glasnevin congrega-
tions gathered in every city, town
and hamlet to mourn his passing.
1t was a military funeral. Eel
low officers last night had borne
the body into the cathedral, just
as Collins short fortnight ago
had helped bear the body Of his
colleague, Griffith.
Betrothed at Grave
They had stood guard all night
and were there this morning when
the solemn requiem high mass was
celebrated before a multitude
which overfloYed the edifice into
the streets.
Richard Mulcahy, the neM chief
tain to whom all Ireland now
looks; General O'Duffy, new chief
of staff, and General McKeon, the
blacksmith of Ballinalee' whose
dash and fire have awakened en-
thusiasm akin to that won by
Collins himself, attended the
funeral. Sister Mary Celestina
came from her convent in England
to pray for her "baby brother. =
Beside her knelt Sean Collins, the
generals brother. But it was up
on the trembling young woman
nearby the eyes of all fell most
pityingly, Kitty Kiernan, Collins
betrothed. In the Gospel have
sat the members of the cabinet, thu
Dali Eireann, civil servants ant
members of provincial corpora
tions.
Thousands Line Streets
On to le3istle side were the
English representatives and mem
bers of the consular corps, incIud-
ing the American consul, the lord
mayor of Dublin, distinguished
members of universities and
learned societies.
Outside, lining the miles of
Dublin streets through which the
funeral eortege later passed,
thousands took part spiritually In
the solemn mass Of requiem,
many kneeling in prayer on the
pavement at the fancied moment
of the elevation of the sacred host.
Archbishop Byrne, head of the
Dublin diocese, was the celebrant
and just as they had chanted for
Griffith, Dublin S renowned choir
Of priests sang the selections dur
ing the mass without organ ac-
compartment.
After absolution, the body was
borne from the church and placed
In the gun carriage, and as 1t
passed along the route to Glasnev-
in many knelt in homage.

Fire Cause Unknown.
The cause OF the fire was not

Still Chance of Rescue.
Mine officials said the men
might have chance If the thick

never reached. Through hoping for war contracts and other ventures in lime light, the annual assessment was overlooked for 1920 and property re- verted to government. It was relo- cated by Geo. B. McDevitt and A. C.. Parry in 1921. They have done a great deal of surface development and two promising ore shoots are indi- cated on surface. The famous old Midnight property that shipped many thousands of dol lars of good mill ore to Leland mill, adjoins the North Star group on. south west and both properties on same strike and in zone of production. .
 By letters and suggestions from many of former Oatman North Star stockholders to retrieve their loss in the old company, the new owners have incorporated the group into an assess able stock and all shareholders in the old company will receive share for share in the new company plus a small assessment for new stock. A few cents in an assessable company will go farther than many cents per share straight and here lies secret of Adams and Oatman United compan- ies. They have been able to prove up on their properties and it is es- pecially so in bonanza developments and high stock rise of Oatman United. The new company has advantage of improvements and much work done by former company and mining can now start almost immediately ,only small repairs to road and the many build ings required. It is planned to mine on the surface showings in quartz-ca cite vein and to diamond drill at depth the big rhyolite dyke and contact vein.
 The officers of new company, are all well versed in mining and prom inent in Oatman and know the possi- bilities of camp and conditions to be met. A C. Parry is Pres, H. J. Hand, Vice-Pres. and Geo. B. McDevitt, Sec retary ,and their faith and acts will get results on one of the probable new mines of Oatman.

to the property and also to the sur rounding territory, which for years has appealed to the mining editor of this journal. So far as developed all the surrounding territory shows cop per deposition, but the engineers who have examined it claim that the de- posit is not extensive enough to war rant exploration. This may be so, but the fact is that a territory several miles in extent shows the same gen. eral character of ore deposition, run ming from one mile east of Mineral Park to more than one mile west of that place and as far south as Todd Basin.
 The territory is peculiarly alike that of the Burro Mountain, New Mexico, where turquoise was mined, then the properties were taken over by the C. & A. company, of Bisbee, and operated for the copper content. The territory at Mineral Park shows beautiful turquoise, but as depth is gained the turquoise gains largely in copper until it is worthless for gem stone. In and around the Kay mines is some exceptionally good ore and the veins appear to be enormous in extent. Only by drilling or the sink ing of deep shaft can the importance of the mines be determined, and it is probable that. soon this work will be undertaken.

 The boys appreciated very much the big cake sent up to them this week by Melvin George. It was not only a big one but was mighty good one according to the boys. On the top of it was placed the words, Boy Scouts.

RICH ORE STRUCK
 ON THE ENTERPRISE

A strike of such importance has been made at Mineral Park this week that many locations nave been made in and around it and an undercurrent of excitement made noticeable in the camp. This is the Tarr strike on the Jolly Roger claim. In doing the as- sessment work John Gross entered the ore at depth of about 25 feet and the shaft was all in ore at depth of 30 feet, where work was discontinued on account of the completion of the contract, and also because of encoun- tering water.
 MT. Tarr brought to the Miner of- flee a chunk of the ore that indicates a value of at least 5O9o copper, being one of the handsomest pieces of cop per ore that has come under our ob- servation. Samples taken from the shaft gave results of 43d and 56% copper, with small amount of silver. The ore is a copper oxide and some carbonates.
 The claims of MT. Tarr lie close in to the Kay property, which has long been considered one of the best groups in the camp. Only a superficial amount of work has been done on it and it is for the first time that entry has been made of an important ore body. This ore body now fills the shaft and the indications are that a wonderful body will be opened with further development. The richness of the ore must surely attract attention
