C1HTEST STHIKE-
IH - STATE
Fabulously Rich Body of Ore
Uncovered by Blast at
Rawhide, Nev.
STAMPEDE TO LOCALITY
More Than 200 Mm, From Reno
Rush to Scene Ore Clear Across
Opening Uncovered Assays
Over $600 to the Ton.
RENO, Nev.. Feb. 17. (Special.) At
the 50-foot level of the lease of Johr.
Kearnt, on Balloon Mountain, at Raw-,
hide, today, Tom Koarns set off a shot
that uncovered a breast of ore liter
ally alive with gold and assaying clear
ncross the six-foot opening more than
Jfii'O per ton In gold and silver, mak
ing it by f:r the largest gold discov
ery In the history of Nevada, if not In
the world.
The strike is only a short distance
from the estate of the Balloon Hill
Company's property which sold last
week for $600,000. Not since the dis
covery of Tonopah has the excitement
been so intense in Reno. Tonight more
than 200, residents of this city, many
of them business men and others
clerks, left for the scene. This rush
has been solus on for the past ten
days on reports of strikes from the
camp, but the confirmed story of the
Keon:s strike tills afternoon has added
to the excitement and telegrams from
tiic southern country tonight state
thr. t the rush to Rawhide is as great
from that section.
The population since last week has
grown to 6000 and is being added to as
rapidly as conveyances can carry for-tune-seekera
to the camp. The ore to
oil appearances Is in place. The vein
forms a contract between the main
backbone of Balloon Hill and adjoins
the country rock to the west, which is
altered porphyry. The gangue is In
a moderately solidified kaollnized
rhyolite carrying about $3 in gold to
$1 in silver.

is sure to be elected who will vote for

LOOTS VANDERBILT HOUSE
Negro Pawning Spoons Arrested on
the Charse.
NEW YORK. Feb. 17.-The mansion of
William K. Vanderbilt, on Fifth avenue,
was looted by burglars last Thursday
night of $1400 worth of sliver. The fact
became known today through the ar
raignment of James Anderson, a negro,
who the police declare is really Elijah C.
Hovey. who In 1809 was sent to prison for
stealing a large quantity of silverware
from the residence of J. P. Mongan and
the late Charles T. Yerke. When ar
rested the negro had pawned some spoons
marked "W. K. V."
Decides Present Office and Private
Practice Better No Deal With
Chamberlain for Judgeship.
SALEM, Or., Feb. 17. (Special.) John
H. McNary is no longer a candidate for
United States District -Attorney. After
taking a second glance at the office and
comparing it with a law practice in
Salem, he concluded that it Isn't worth
going after. While the salary of the
office is good, In order to accept It he
would be compelled to give up & business
built un through years of work and then
at the end of his term would find his prl-i
vate practice gone. So he will stay in
Salem.
Speaking of the matter tonight, he said:
"Since I gave Representative W. C.
Hawley authority to present my name to
the delegation in Congress for consid
eration in connection with the office of
United States Difttrlct Attorney, I have
made some investigations into the emolu
ments and duties of the office. I have
ascertained that It would be necessary
for me-Th give up my law practice en
tirely, as well as my present position.
which would entail a loss on my part. I
have, therefore, sent a telegram to Rep
resentative Hawley requesting that he
do not present my name to the delega
tion for its consideration.
'I do not know that the delegation
would have recommended me for the po
sition, but I have been assured of sup
port by some" of its members. I feel con
fident that in case the delegation had
submitted my name to the President for
his consideration, the Department of Jus
tice would have Tecommended my ap
pointment. However, I have concluded
that it would be to my interest to retain
my practice here and my present offlcisl
position. I expect to be a candidate for
re-election to the omce or District At
torney for the Third Judicial district.
"I resent the inference that appeared
In print yesterday to the effect that I
had been tendered the appointment of
Judge f this district, in case Judge Bur
nett should accept the united states
District Attorneyship, as a reward for
political favors rendered to the Gov
ernor by me. The fact is the Governor
never even so much as intimated to me
that he would appoint me in such a con
tingency, neither did I request it; neither
is the Governor under any obligations
to me politically or otherwise, for I did
not assist him in the last or any cam
paign."

Nary and Scobcy Recommended.
OREGON1AN NEWS BUREAU. Wash
ington, Feb. 17. If the objections of F. J.
Heney, T. C. Becker and T. B. Neuhausen

fact has not yet been made known to
any member of the Congressional delega
tion and. according to a statement made
today by the Denartfhent of Justice, no

notifv the delegation that he cannot ap
point Mr. Cleeton, no further action will
be taken until Representative Hawley ar
rives. He Is expected Wednesday.

members of the delegation are receiving
telegrams recommending various candi
dates, especially John H. McNary, of
Salem, and J. O B. Scoby. of Portland

The tailor-made girl for 1908 will present the most graceful fignre
possible. There is considerable diversity of choice this eeason.
Many tastes may be suited. Advanced tendencies are that butter
fly sleeves and quiet-toned patterns will be the most pronounced
features in the realms of tailored wear. The . Japanes sleeve with
its large, loose, Japanesy effect is adapted to all figures, slendar
or plump. Plaids and stripes in self colors or tones that harmonize
will be immensely popular. Jackets come in various lengths, quite
short or reaching well below the hips. The trimmings, are also
more varied than usual. One of the newest effects is to have collars
and cuffs faced with fancy silk that matches the lining of the coat.
This gives a decidedly smart effect and is the most recent novelty
in ready-to-wear tailoring.

salons often as possible. Keep in touch with
