Indignation surrounds Comstock mine misrepresentations in Silverton as The Miner publishes a reply from a local expert. The mill contract details payments on completion with minor penstock concerns, contractor Mitchell’s handling, and Superintendent Thomas’ role. Ore shipments face muddy roads, with mills and mines maintaining operations and temporary layoffs only for redistribution of mined ore. Market notes from The Mail and Empire highlight Noble Five and other stocks, while Kaslo lists transfers and assessments for March 11 to 16, including Charleston, Magnet, and Virginia Care locations.
