MINING NOTES.

Union ore Is milling $50 per ton.
The south header OF the Sutro tunnel
has reached Bolton ground. The mine
has about $50 feet and It will take two
months to go through IL and the cost
will be about Sos, 900.
Lady Bryan has better prospects
than ever. Superintendent Kelly says
that the incline 10 now. as he judges,

ing smile, but answered never q word.
His veins OF information are more i'm
pervious to the pencil. II possible. than
those Of James OF the Yellow Jacket.
The Yellow Jacket il dropping into
better quartz every day. This informa-
ton Is gathered outside the manage.
ment, but 10 reliable.
The north header Of the Sutro tunnel
is today $50 feet into Best x Boleher
ground and In block porphyry which
works very well and admits OF wonderful
progress.
It will take q week yet to clean up the
workings 276O level Of the Belcher.
The Gould & Curry and Best q
Belcher pumps at the joint shaft have
all they can do to keep the water down.
Yesterday they were worked at the rate
OF l2 strokes per minute. The pumps
arc li.inch plungsrs, with about Shoot
stroke. This water will DO tapped with
q diamond drill from the joint crosscut
east on the Sutro tunnel level as o o as
the crosscut reaches q point under the
shaft. BY that time the drill will have
about 500 feet Of upward range to
make TO get this water.
They ale now drifting south on the
1850 level OF the Utah mine. and from
this drift q crosscut will soon DO started
east. When this crosscut starts, the
mine is likely to again receive the atten-
ton Of dealers. .
The Union shaft is 526 feet north Of
the Mexican line. and the prospects are
good in the south drift, on the $500
level, for the uncoverins OF ore near the
line. It may require the opening Of
another level, however. to determine
the fact.

EASTERN DISPATCHES.

Tho Utes in Warrington.

w~AsHISoTos. January 15.-For obvi.
ous reasons Secretary Sohurz desires to
conduct negotiations with ouray's bands
OF Southern Ute Chiefs with ss little
publicity as possible. 10 general II may
be said that he has taken Q very Arm
and radical ground. His twofold posi-.
ton is that the murdersrs Of the people
at the agency must DO discovered and
surrendered. aud that the Utes must cor.
sent for q reasonable equivalent to leave
Colorado. The Indians are disposed to
Weld to these demands. Sohurz feels
sanguine that the negotiations will be
brought to q successful termination on
the basis stated. The Ute chiefs are
guarded with great care. and under
orders by Secretary Schurz are pre-.
vented from converting with any one.
This mysterious surveillance renders It
impossible for the press to inform the
public whether or not the Utes have yet
stated their ultimatum.
Ouray had q talk with Schurz day be.
fore yesterday. during which he
expressed O desire to have tho present
troubles healed as soon a. possible.
When Schurz laid down - the condition
OF peace the necessity on Oursy's part
OF delivering up the murdsrers Of
Meeker, the chief replied "That Is .
very funny thing to ask OF me. How

SOMETHING ABOUT FIRES.
And About Insurance The Fire
Last Might asd ihose Generally
In Gold Hill viryisia's Arson
Can0.

Fires have been frequent in Gold Hill
Of late. There were tan Of them last
month, and in every instance the build.
ipRs were set on FIRE and. With . single
exception. the buildings burned for a
year past were insured for more than
they were worth. This fact 10 worthy
the candid and careful consideration OF
our citizens. The exception above re-
ierr,d to was the Duprey restaurant.
There was another fire here Of 7:45
last evening. In kind It formed no
exception to the list which 10 recorded
above. The house was owned and occu.
pied by Mrs. Riley and stood back OF
and adjoining the Mount Vernon House.
Main street, and west Of the Con. I'm.
perial works. Tho house was not worth
500 and yet was insured for $500.
There was but little furniture in the
building and but little anything else. It
was completely Quilted by the flames, for
the fremen had 0 hard and IN uphill
Job literally to get there. But they got
there and in good time. too. The Con.
Imperial helped put the fire out. It
was q close call for the Mount Vernon
House.
There is another notable thing in cou.
nection with fires OF the character above
mentioned They almost always occur
in by places and those difficult OF access
by the fremen. There are no better
water works for extinguishing fires in
the world than In Gold Hill and no
more active, willing, energetic and de-
terminsd firemen than WI have. They
are ready aud anxious to fight the de-
stroying element whenever it appears In
our midst /; but We cannot expect them
to master the torch OF the incendiary,
when applied with the deliberate inten-
ton Of making money by the operation.
What Is necessary now Is for tho IN.
surance companies to come to the rescue.
This whole district should be carefully
canvasseI and, wherever q building or q
building aud contents are insured for
more than they ore worth, promptly
cancel the policies. II the present way
Of doing business Is allowed to proceed
and agents are allowed to make money
in o few instances at tho expense Of
their companies. oil good companies will
o be driven from the field. and we
shall be left at the mercy OF the mer.
cenary and the incendiary.
Virginia is investigating a case OF un.
doubted arson-the burning OF the Bell
residence. near the corner OF North and
Stewart streets-but Of q different kind
from those referred to above. II 10 said
by some of the firemen that Bell told
them not to put water on the FIRE, that 1t
was his house and II might burn. Also.
he had not recently obtained q divorce
from his wife. but Mrs. Bell has com.
menced suit for q divorce from her bus
band. and in her complaint asked that
the house and lot be awarded her. Per.
o q residing in the neighborhood OF the
fire mention suspicious circumstance
which will doubtless DO closely looked
into during the investigation.
