New Strike Report at Bailey Springs Claims
A Recorp correspondent visits a new camp near Bailey Springs noting five claims active near discovery sites on the Silver King group. The shaft deepens to seven feet with ore values rising perhaps fifty percent and a four foot pay streak widening. Surface rock shows chloride of silver while fine-grained galena and sulphide of silver appear at the shaft bottom. North and south strikes show strong potential as prospecting concentrates in a two by six mile district. A temporary six day state holiday is proclaimed for Nevada to aid distressed California in the wake of the San Francisco strike.
