The YIReINIus PRISONERS.
The Place Where They We're shot-saved
by a British Gunboat-

by a British Gunboat-
icuba Cor. New York Times
One of the sights of Santiago is the
spot where some of the Virginius pris,
oners were shot. 1t is a six-feet high
wall in front Of the slaughter house.
The meu were stood up in line, with
their faces to the wall and their backs
to the soldiers, and murdered. The
story they tell there of the rescue OF the
remainder Of the prisoners is an inter
esting one. Americans and E~nglishmen
in Santiago tell the story; the natives
don't tell it, for Obvious reasons. The
government, so the story goes, had in
terdicted the sending of any message
owe the cable concerning the killing of
these prisoners. But there was an En-
glish boy in the telegraph Office, learn
ing the business, and he watched his
chance when the operator was out, and
standing unconeernedly with his back
TO the key, while the Office was guarded
by Spanish soldiers, he put his hands
behind him and managed to send over
to Jamaica this startling message.
There S the devil to pay in Santiago.
They're buthering men Of all nations"
You must imagine how such a mes
sage was received in Jamaica; how the
operator read it and reread it ana
wondered whether it was a hoax, and
read it again and then sent it up to the.
governor. The governor perhaps had
had experience with the Spaniards be-
fore, for he sent the message without
delay to the commander of n British
gunboat that lay in Kingston harbor,
and the commander had faith enough
in it TO put on all steam and point his
bow for Santiago. For if men of all
nations were being butchered there
must be knglishmen among them. Next
morning the British gunboat lay in
Santiago harbor, and how glad those
poor prisoners must have been to see.
her there, Americans as we'll as English.
The commander sent n messenger
ashore 10 learn what was going on, but
he came back without any information.
Rifle shots were frequently heard, and
he sent one of his principal officers to
see the c-ommandant of the Spanish
troops TO inquire whether any British
subjects were in trouble, and the COM
mandant sent him back an impudent
reply, saying that he had Just shot one
batch of prisoners and intended to shoot
another lot within an hour, and that it
was none OF his business. Then the
British commander sent n message
ashore that the Spanish general might
possibly have thought uncivil. 1t was
to the effect that if he heard another
shot fred until he had assurances that
no British subjects were being murdered
he would open ire On the city. This
did the business, and the shooting
stopped. The gunboat staid long enough
to see that the remaining prisoners had
at least fair play, and thus saved a
good many lives.
This is not my story, remember; l

there at the time. But it's a neat little
story, and | couldn't help telling it.

The impression seems to prevail in this
section that copper mines are of no ac-
count for the reason that the market
price Of copper is too low to make copper
mining profitable, This is an erroneous
idea, and in view Of the fact that the
mines in this vicinity are principally cop
per bearing, and that the owners are
about to start up smelling works, THE
LEADER has taken some pains to obtain
some official data on this sub. ect. The
following figures, taken from Morton's
London circular letter, show the worlds
production of ingot in 1881 to have been
1884, III tons. The stock on hand and
aioai, Dec 81, 1881, was so, sos tons. the
price being ell per ton. The worlds
production for 1884 was pos, 3l3 tons,
and the stock on hand and %afioat, Dec. 81,
1884, was only 47,s43 tons, the price
being e47 IS. This shows an increase Of
5000 tons in 1884 over 1881. and of this
increase $4,000 tons were produced in
this country,
The theory that there is a great over
production of copper is exploded by these
figures. A much greater amount was
produced in 1884 than in 1881, but the
stock on hand and aloat at the end of the
ycar was considerably less than that in
1881, when the production was much
smaller. The celebrated Old Dominion
mine, with a production Of u, 900
pounds per annum, has suspended, and
other large mines in the Lake Superior
region will have to stop temporarily.
Meanwhile he'ronsumption is constantly
increasing, owing to great many additional
uses to which oopr4r is being put, and
instead ola decline in ingot, a copper
famine is much more likely to occur. Let
our miners go ahead and produce all the
copper they can bring'to the surface. The
high grade copper ore Of the Silver
Crown mines will pay a handsome profit,
not to mention the large percentage Of
silver the ore contains.
