Positive Identification of the youthful two-gun bandit, Harry Clay Bull, 21, of Brooklyn, N. r., under arrest in Greenfield, Mass, on the charge of murdering police man, as the man, who held up and robber Earl Lane, of this city, was established here yesterday.
 Chief Thomas Manning of the Greenfield police visited local de- tective bureau yesterday afternoon and exhibited photos of the youth who will face trial shortly in Greenfield for killing Patrolman Albert J. Jordan. The latter was shot in attempting to frustrate a hold-up. Lane, manager of a gas- oline station on West Side Hill, immediately recognized the fea- lures of the young man and un- hesitatingly declared that he was the one who robbed him of $50. The local hold-up took place the latter part of July.
 Driving the same New York li- censed car in which he made his getaway here, Bull tried to hold up Arthur J. Mannix, a Greenfield oil dealer on August 7th. The youth attempted the same unusual scheme as he did here. On drtv- ing into the station enclosure he engaged Mannix in a conversation and very quietly and politely in- formed him that he was a secret service agent. but needed some money and was going to hold the surprised manager up. Mannix laughed at this quaint way of stag ing a "stick-up." Before any great exchange of words could take place another car drove into the yard and Mannix turned to give service As he pumped gasoline he remark ed to the driver, T got nut here, who Is trying to hold me up. If you see cop down the street, send him up."
 Mannix returned to his polite hold-up man and continued to talk with him. stalling for time. Within few minutes Patrolman Jordan arrived on the scene in the car

1882 Gold Output Sets New World Record
~ PROCESS
SKATERS Or
By PRESSURE

Ore minerals are really micro
scopic honeycombs. was the state
ment by R. 8. Dean. chief engi-
neer Of the Metallurgical Divi-
sion. based on studies OF the ply
steal properties OF ore minerals
which the Bureau Of Mines has
been carrying.
These honeyeombs absorb
large amounts OF gas and even
water. This latter property has
been made the basis OF a meth
cd OF SCATTERING ores by explo-
sion Of the entrapped water.
The problem OF crushing and
grinding 50 IS to separate the
values from the barren rock has
long perplexed the mining indus
try. The possibility Of doing this
at greatly reduced cost Is envi-
stoned by this discovery OF the
Bureau engineers. In this pro-
cess the ore is wetted and sub
jected to $50 pounds steam pres
sure which, on sudden release,
skaters the ore by the gasifica-
ton OF the entrapped water.
The method which Is generally
applicable is particularly advan-
tageous where the ore mineral
may be shattered and sifted a.
way from the barren rock. Such
a condition occurs in the failing
dumps Of the Joplin district. Ex-
pertinent has shown that nearly
70H5 Of the zinc in these dumps
can be obtained in q concen-
trate containing 1879 zinc by q
single explosion followed by slew
ing.
This process, which is the dis
covery of Dean and John Gross.
metallurgist OF the bureau, was
described before the annual con-
OF the American Institute
Of Mining and Metallurgical En-
gineers in New York.

rightly things that mining invest
ments, where you can put in
$4,000 and have market profits
Of about $4,000, are in class
by themselves.
f'Another case related by Mr..
Hardin is that Of John Maus,
who drove a brewery wagon in
the late '70s nj the Black Hills.
He bought 1000 shares OF Home
stake stock for about $1,000 at
about the same time that Mr..
Leadman bought his shares.
When Homestake stock reached
$12 a share, Maus sold his 1000
shares and with the $4,000
moved back to Germany, where
he established himself in bust
ness. His fortune grew and Mr..
Hardin says that Maus was later
worth many times his original
investment.

lAURITzEM IL
PROCESS TO GET
IT'S FIRST TRIAL

TUOLUMNE, Calf. Feb. IL.
A. A. Lauritzen, metallurgical
engineer, inventor OF a process
for gol drecovery which, it is
claimed, will revolutioniEe the
mining industry, and George B.
Alderman, Sacramento mining
man, have leased the chlorina-
ton tailings of the Shawmut
mine, which, it Is understood,
they will treat under the new
Lauritzen method. It is asserted
that by the new gold-saving pro-
cess concentrates can be treated
more successfully than by any
other method known, and at a
cost of only a few cents per ton.
The elase was obtained from
J. D. Mccarthy of Calaveras
and is for the term Of
two years. It requires the lessees
to commence operations on the
tailings on or before Feb. is and
calls for the prosecution OF such
activities to the extent of at
least five shifts per week. The
lease gives the right to mine not
only the taiIings at the old
plant but also any
and ali surface dirt or residue
down to bedrock.

Re- : TIzATION

Within the last five years tbs
price Of silver has rapidly de

it TO a ratio OF about 80 ounces
Of silver to one of gold. When
it is understood that nearly half

decline has meant to countries
upon that basis.
China, in particular, has suffer

for this catastrophe fall in the
value Of silver. In 1920 1t re-
duced the silver content Of it's
subsidiary currency nearly SO
per cent. This example was fol-
lowed by Australia and New
Zealand and then by most of the
countries of Europe and South
America.
The effect was a virtual de-
monetization of silver coinage,
a great reduction in the demand
for silver, and q surplus thrown
upon the markets. Following this
came the adoption Of the gold
standard in India, where silver
for ages had been the chief none
tary reliance, thus further reduc-
ing the demand.
The main cause Of the decline
of silver having been govern
mental action, it seems clear that
governmental action can so far

purchasing power of the vast Far

upon It.
There can be no doubt that
a reconciliation of silver would

covery of the rest of the world,
