One engineer said of the mine:
IT has been my desire for years to
possess i. but am an engineer with
out the business genius to acquire
and develop it. The more | study

certain its development will result IN
large profits" IFS opinion was cor
rect. Jug ng from cold development
figures. and the opinion seems com
mon among those familiar with the
mine Great ore reserves are already
developed aud they are being IN
creased.
The ore Is OF soft nature, most
cheaply mined. Milling tests have
shown that a leach after coarse grind
ing will show an extraction or "a
Der cent of the valuable content. The
present management conservatiyely
bases reserve figures on the ore OF
$40 grade developed In many places
bodies of SO ore are being protitably
mined under more difficult condl-
tions. A lowering of the permissible
values would tremendously enhance
the ore reserves and the resulting
profit. and comparison shows such
a lowering of the profitable grade to
be most likely.
The property belongs outright 10

whatever action may be taken bv
the court in Chicago as a result Of
the injunction proceedings instituted
by Attorney General Daugherty. it
was said here by W H. Johnston
president of the machinists, one of

Johnston asserted it would take
more than "a mere injunction suit or
injunction to prevent a complete col
lapse of some Of these railroads in
the next thirty days" and added:
We shall continue with the strike
whatever happens. We are not afraid
OF anything the courts can do. Men
still have some constitutional rights
in America, and we shall stand on
them. Filing of this suit is just
another blunder to be added to the
large lis; which the administration
has already made in dealing with
the railroad situation am sur,
prised that Mr. Daugherty isn't at
tempting to restrain the railroads
instead of the men. The adminisra.
tion has done everything it could to
