of the Interior Department for Montana,
writes to Secretary Schurz: Despite the
reports which have gone out in the inter-

now sold lower than ever before in the

men have suffered by the efforts of the
government to stop the depredations.
Since the stoppage of these speculations
by the dollar tax, small dealers have kept

Getting Rid of Them m.

The Tucson Stdr of the 25th has the following
 For seve:al days the Sheriff and Marshal Butner have known of a gang of highwaymen and thieves hiding outside of town, and besides stopping men on the road, would come into town of nights and steal from the peoples houses. Last Sunday morning they learned the whereabouts of the gang, and the Sheriff, Butner, Brokaw, and Mex ican. started in pursuit. They dis covered the party in the Tucson Mountain, where they were hiding, accompanied by women. As the officers approached, the thieves opened 2 brisk fire, which was kept up on both sides, when one of the thieves fell on his face. He was supposed to be dead, when the at tack was made on his partner, who had taken refuge behind the wo- men, and was firing away at the officers with great rapidly. To shoot would be to kill those surrounding him, so the party concluded to re- turn to town and supply their ex- hausted ammunition. This they did, and returned to find the dead" man gone, with the balance of the party. They all escaped. Mon day they gained information that the wounded man was at a house in this city, and they visited the place but found no trace of him. They again got on the trail of the party, who had taken the San Xavier road, and at this writing the officers are out after them. .E
 On Sunday the 21st, Marshal Butner, while cndeavoring to quell a row among some Mexicans, in the upper part of town, was set upon by them, when one drew knife, and was in the act of using it, when Butncr shot him, the ball passing through his liver. He was taken by the officer to jail, when Dr. Handy was cIlled in. He was taken to the hospital the same night, and the chances for life are about even. But uer's life is threatened by a mol composed of companions of the man shot, f.r

nation, and even when present in such abundance as to depreeiate Ihe quality of the bullion, this is not serious trouble. These argentifer- ous copper ores will in fact very likely be found useful to mix with other ores in preparing them for amalgamation, which will surely be the process employel for their re- duction until the mines reach con siderable depths, when the ores may change and other means for treating them will come into use. The op- poncnts of this process point to sev- eral unsuccessful attempts which have been made at employing it, but to this it may be replied that the ores experimented on were, with one exception, taken from mines lying in the eastern or gneiss formation, all highly sulphurcted and carrying lead, antimony and arsenic in such quantities that uO skillful metallur- gist would undertake their treatment without roasting, The result of the other trials have never been made public, though it was hinted by one who ought to know, that a very high percentage of the silver was saved, and that the work was discontinued because the quality of the ore did not come up to the owners expecta- tions-a reasonable solution, inas- much as it rarely happens that a miner estimates his ore at less than twice its value. Experiments made with hand mortar on many of the ores south of Queen creek have shown that they amalgamate as high as SS per cent of the fire as- say, and as this both simple and conclusive, it is suggested that in- tcrested parties make trial of it.

Russia is not yet fully civilized. She is
eleven days behind the times. The first of the
month there is the twelfth here. This results
from the fact that she still adheres to the cal
endar Of Julius Caesar, instead of the Gregg
rian Calendar, instituted in 1882, and now in
use in all civilized nations except Russia. The
question OF the adoption Of the new style is to
be discussed by congress of the wise men of
the nation at st. Petersburg. After which,
Russia is expected to abjure ''Caesarism," so

slavish dependence on their creditors to the
