Big Mining Suit.

Denver, December 23.-The most i'm
Portant mining litigation ever tried in
Colorado was concluded in the United
States Circuit Court here, to-day. Nil
lions OF dollars are involved in the re-
suit OF the trial, and the precedent set
which involves the title to nearly 500
mining claims in the vicinity of
Aspen, Pitkin County. Colorado. The
qCesucn at issue was whether
the ASPEN mines contained assure veins
or deposits OF ore. II the assure theory
IS correct. then the owners of the
claims on the Apex. or where the out
groupings are visible on the surface,
had the right under the United States
statute to follow the dip of the vein
into other claims, but If the deposit
theory was maintained then tie
vast number Of mines on the side of
the Aspen mountain could be
operated by their owners. as far as
the boundaries of their claim. The
present suit is brought 6y ID. NJ. Hy-
man, OF Cincinnati. against J. 3.
wheeler, OF New YORK City, and other
capitalists. Lyman owns part
OF the Dur.nt mine, on
the Apex claim, and Wheeler and
friends own the Emma Mine. which
lies Immediately beneath the Duran,
on the side OF the Aspen Minrs.
Durant is the older location. but a
richer ore was first struck in the
Emma; 81 500. 600 worth of ore had
been taken out CT the Emma when the
Durant people brought salt to gain
possession of the Emma on III =
Apex theory, and the ur.
enjoined the Emma from further
operations. The case has been on
trial three weeks, the best known min
ing experts in the west being about
equally divided on each side. To
night the jury brought in q verdict in
favor of the Durant mine. The Aspen
mine, the richest in the camp, lies i'm
medIately beneath the Emma, and a
suit is now pending to obtain possession
OF II by the Durant people. Two million
dollars have been taken from the Aspen
mine and as much more was in sight
when work in it was enjoined. It is re-
ported that the Apex owners have been
awaiting the result of this trial, ana
will now bring suit to recover pOsses-AI
sion OF those mining claims lying on the
side below there This is the
first case involving the Apex
theory since the Leadville litiga-
ton was begun in the early his
tory of that camp, and which was
settled about three months ago in the
Supreme Conrt Of the United States
against the Apex theory. In the Lead
vile cases the hanging wall was
claimed to be porpAyry and the foot
wall lime stone. In the Aspen case il
IS claimed that the hanging wall is of
calcine aud the foot wall dolomatic
lime stone.

Parnell.

LONDON, December pa reporter
called on Parnen at the Easton Square
Hotel, this evening. Parnell looked
much paler and thinner than at the end
Of last session, but he is evidently max
ing good progress. He said his physi-
clan believes that he Will be stronger
than for many years. He said nis Ill
ness became acute about the end
OF October, but for several
months previously he had been
losing flesh, appetite and strength, until
in the autumn session he felt almost
entirely unable TO do any work. Con
tinuing, he said: After my malady had
become fully developed. / was una lie
TO read or write anything or attend to
any kind OF business for several weeks,
and IL is only within the last three
weeks that | have permitted myself
even to think of political affairs, while
even now, the excitement and fatigue of
the last few days have distinctly thrown
me back and made me feel worse"
Parnell then turned to the political situa-
ton. He remarked that government,
now that Lord Randolph Churchill had
resigned, would have something else TO
think OF than coercive powers in any
case, because the marked absence OF
crime, the general moderation with
which the campaign had been conducted
and the fact that the object OF the gov
eminent and of campaign promoters
was the same-namely, that of obtain
ing fair rent abatement from unyield-
ing landlOrds-had taken away many
of the usual excuses for coercion. Re
garding the legality Of the campaign,
Parnell said he was unwilling to- take
the law from either Justice 0'Brien
or Justice Johnston, both of whom
were strong political partlsans, who
had received their offices 10 reward for
political services, and who were
notoriously lawyers of mediocre ability.
There was confusion in the Judgment
itself as well as in the proclamation.
In any case" continued Parnell,
''if it should be generally and
clearly decided, by high legal
opinion OF recognized authority, that
the campaign is illegal, you must re-
member il viii be only technically illegal
and only so because the same right of
combination which the legislature,
after much agitation, legalized for the
British workmen, under the name of
trades unIOnism. has not yet been ex-
tended 10 the Irish tenant farmers"

On the o,her hand, il is learned from a
reliable source that the Queen will

him to Join the ministry and
become the Conservative leader in

that he alone can neutralze

The Press on Churchill.

LONDON, Decemb 24.-The Morning
Post says that the resignation OF Lord
Randolph Churchill has no connection
with the foreign policy of the govern
ment; that his opinions on the foreign
policy coincide with those Of the

ylcriOn.
The Daily Ne,Es says: We under
stOId that Lord salisbury has asked
l. I'd Harrington for assistance. The
idea that ne will resign is absurd.
Lord Salisbury is not the sort OF
man to admit publicly that he
cannot conduct Affairs without
Churchill. Churchill may possibly
now join the Liberals. Gladstone
would, without doubt, accept his friend
ship, as he has ever had kindly feei-
ing for Churchill, IN spite Of his mon
strous language.
The AOrHtHg Post says it I as autho--
ity to deny that nPgOtiat ons are in

ChurchIlI's Resignation.

LONDON, December 23.-The st. james
Gazette says that If financial reasons ex-
plain Lord Randolph Churchill's re-
signation from the Cabinet, there is
nothing to be said except that there is
not much to be deplored; but If the
local government bill was the cause,
then the government has grievously
erred.
The Echo says it believes that Lord
Randolph Churchill's resignation was
due TO an essential divergence of
opinion with the rest of the Cabinet.
Unless, says the paper. Lord Randolph
gives better rea son for his action, than
that of financial differences with his
colleagues, he will be unable t. repel
hostile criticism of his course.
The Evening NelrS says the patriots
are panied and surprised. 1t asks Lord
Randolph Churchill to justify his
course. warning him that if he does not
MS name will never be heard hereafter
without exciting evaporation.
The Globe says IL would be difficult
for the warmest admirers of Lord Ran
dolph Churchill 10 Yindicate his step.
The Pail Mall Gazette declares that il
will be impossible for LordiSalisbury to
govern unless LordHartington steps into
the breach. 1t says it is impossible to
conceive of any hypothesis upon which
Lord Harrington could defend, morally
or politically, the refusal to accept the
post which Lord Randolph Churchill
has vacated.
The Queen sent her private secre-
tary, General SIT Frederick Ponsonby,
to London to-day, with message tor
Lord Salisbury.

ministers passing Christmas at their

Churchill authorizes the statement that
he will contiRue to give general support
TO the government and on the dispu ted
questions in Parliament will hold aloof
rather than oppose the government,
avoiding everything that might tend 70

and Liberals, on Unionist principles. II

and Lord Harrington to have the

The Carlton and other Conservative
clubs are almost deserted owing to the
holidays, but the few members remain

fury against Churchill, stigmatizing
him as traitor, who will be forever un-
worthy OF party confidence.
The Conservative Association in Lord
RandOlph's constituency is arraigning
him for the appointment OF committee
to call upon Lord Randolph TO demand
of him an explanation of his conduct.
An informal meeting of GladstOnians
was held at the National Liberal CLUB
tonight. There was much rejoicing
over the prospective breakup of the
Conservative Unionist coalition, and
the hope was expressed that the gradual
spproachment of the Churchill
Chamberlain alliance TO the Gladston-
ians will result IN the coarse of the
coming session of Parliament, in the
return of Gladstone to office.

The Pope's PatrImony.

ROME, December 2S.-The Pope, re-

the College Of Cardinals, spoke at some
length OF the position of the church in
Italy. he protested against the anti
clerical movement which is being car
ried on in the country. and said that
the Holy See was now despoiled Of the
last remnants OF its patrimony. The
only liberty left to him was that held
by the Roman pontiffs in the earliest
ages. The Italian government, he de-
clared. hsd assisted the laity in unduly
interfering with the administration Of
tn church. had expelled religious
bodies, and had tolerated an organized
hostility against the Va ican as the head
OF the church. He must con inue TO
