Stanley Basin.

Cy. Odell, of Stanley Basin, one
of Idaho's pioneer placer miners
arrived in Kctchum on Thursday
via the Sawtooth stage. He reports
the "old diggings" still yielding
more or less of the precious metal
A. P. Challis and his partner
Henry Sturkey, have been putting
in 3O-inch bedrock fume during
the past summer and expect to
have it completed by early spring.
1t is said they have valuable piece
of placer property.
Tim Cooper and family, formerly
of Vienna, are wintering in the Ba-
sin. Cooper & Tassel have been
placer mining there for the last two
or three years with good success.
Mr.. Seely and two or three 9TH
ers are located in "Joe's" gulch,
east of Stanley. They will drift
during the winter to be prepared
for spring work.
Mr.. Odell thinks it will be many
years yet before the old Basin will
be worked out. Their natural sup
ply point, he says, is Ketchum, and
all that is needed is some improve
ment to the road. Mr.. Odell left
yesterday on the train for Southern
California, where he will spend the
winter and return to his placer dig
gings as soon as spring opens.

Fire at HALEY.

~AO "V AA0AAVys
The News-Miner of the 2Sth ult.
gives the following account of the
burning of M. E. Pinney's house
About 80 o'clock yesterday af-
ternoon the dwelling house on First
avenue: occupied by Milton E. Pin
ney and family, was discovered on
fire. The alarm was given imme-
diately, but the blaze made such
rapid progress that before the hose
company, which acted promptly,
could check it the whole inside of
the building was afre. Nearly all
the contents were consumed. The
loss in furniture, clothing, bed
ding, paintings, etc., will perhaps
amount to $1,000, and the damage
to the house as much more.
The fire is supposed to have orig
mated from a defective fue, or in
the lining near the fue. No one
was in the house at the time the
fire started. Mrs. Pinney had &C.
casion to visit a neighbours. She
locked her little son in the house
and started off, but it occurring to
her that it might be dangerous to
thus leave him, she returned and
took him to Colonel Thum's house,
to leave him there until
she returned from the neighbours.
She, however, had not been gone
but a few moments before the roof
around the chimney of her house
was found to be ablaze. Although
she lost many valuable souvenirs,
still she is so thankful she returned
and placed her little son in place
Of safety that she is content and
happy. Mr.. Pinney is away on
mining business. The house was
owned by parties in Philadelphia.

KENTUCKY VS.. WEST VIRGINIA


CATLETsBURG, KY, Jan. 12.-The war
of determination goes bravely on between
the McCoys, of Pike county, and the Hat
fields, OF Logan county, West Virginia.
AS soon as the last sad rites of the late
bntchcry were over, Mccoy organized a
posse and visited the Hatfield settlement
in West Virginia for the purpose of ami
hilating the gang. After visiting the
Hatfield house and finding no one at
home, and or retiring TO the woods, the
Hatfield gang came upon them; after the
smoke of a bloody battle had cleared
away it was found hat the Hatfield party
was badly worsted and three of their
number were killed. Those known to be
killed were johnson Hatfield, Thomas
Chambers and james Vance. The latter
was shot seven times. The Mccoy posse
then returned TO their settlement TO await
developments. The greatest excitement
prevails, and the end is not yet. The au-
thorities are powerless and wan will
doubtless be waged until one side or the
other is completely eXterminated.

a Deserted Husband.
Adjourned

DAKOTA CITY, Neb, Jan. 10.-A man with a
two year old baby gill, hailing from Yankton,
and giving the name Of l.. l.. Frisby, arrived
in town last evening on his way to Omaha,
where he claims to have relatives. He stated
that about ten days ago his wife mysteriously
disappeared from his house in Yarkton, since
which time he has been unable TO get any
clue to her whereabouts. He believes, how
ever, that she was a little too intimate with
one Kenny, of that place, and feels confident
that his hayward wife has given him (Frisby)
the z. b., and roams the wide world with
another. The embarrassing condition Of his
financial circumstances rendered a more ex-
~tensive journey impossible, and Mr.. Frisby
appealed to the good nature OF Landlord
Ryan, of the Eureka hotel, who furnished
him supper, bed and breakfast. Mr.. Frsby
today applied to County Attorney Frazer to
get to Omaha.

STATE OF TRADE.

Trade during the past week has been quiet
and uneventful In nearly all lines. The
business conditions have remained compare
lively featureless, with the exception Of the
general feature of quietness which ordinarily
characterizes the period succeeding New
Years. There is somehow an impression
that Ia this period, more than any other, it is
necessary to get the bearings of things anew,
and to look out sharply for pointers y
There is no change OF seasons involved in the
turn Of the year, and anything else of sub
s~tantial significance, except to the light speci-
alties In the line of holiday goods. But
somehow there is a way Of thinking of it as a
new point Of departure.
There is another heavy shortage in western
pork packing this week, $1,000 hogs less than
last week, raising the aggregate shortage OF
the scasan TO about 405, 600 head. receipts
of hogs latterly have materially increased,
those of Chicago especially surprising any
other week Of the season, while one days re-
ceipts surpassed those Of any day last Janu-
airy.
The receipts of wheat at western centcrs are
again materially less than a year ago, but
the receipts Of corn and oats are somewhat
larger. The visible supply Of grain bas in
creased at an unusually early point Of the
season.
With the strongest visible supply statement
and interior movement for many weeks, all
cereals have sold lower in American centcrs
while Liverpool is higher, both afor corn and
wheat.
Chicago receipts have been relatively large,
and packers there are lowering their average
Of cost, as usual at this point of the season.
Fat cattle are firm or higher, and common
grades are somewhatlower.n Spot cotton has
declined l-i6c, and options 1-5c, in New York
and nowhere else on this side, but Liverpool
is I'D lower. A weakening action has been
developed In the wool market. Spot ccffees
are H@l4c lower, but options have declined
lO0@l50 points of for most positions. Re-
fined sugars are still tending up, somo grades
being &c higher. Tn dry goods markets arc
steady TO firm for all grades. The last years
production was about 100000 tons, which is
about ten per cent greater than in 1886, and
indications are beginning to appear that sup
plies are gaining slowly on the demand. Leaf
tobacco has been selling quietly at very full
prices. Kentucky WHISTLES are said to be
still strengthening in tone.
Corn has rapidly advanced in Chicago and
this market is strong. Good fat eaeep are
quoted at higher prices.

GOOD WORDS FOR THE G. A. Il.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 10-The Grand Army
men employed in the general land Office
called yesterday upon Secretary Lamar,
and, through their spokesman, A. +.
Dinsmore, said that they had come to say
goodbye, and in doing so they wished to
express their appreciation of the kindness
and consideration which he had always
shown toward the members of the Grand
Army. The secretary thanked them in Il
pleasant speech. When this delegation
withdrew the assistant attorney general.
Mr.. Montgomery, came in at the head of
the law clerks, and there were more
speeches and hand shaking. During the
afternoon nearly all the employees in the
department called on the secretary and
took leave of him. Secretary Lamar will
retire from the department today, and
after that Assistant Secretary Muldrow
will be the acting secretary until the sen
ate confirms the nomination of Mr.. Villas.

STATEHOOD.
The Convention ~ Huron Does Some
Work During Its Short Session.

UUnoN, Jan. 10.-ThG constitutional CON
yention adjourned Mt noon. The morning
convention was chiefly devoted to the consid-
! GRAFTON of the report Of the committee ON
future work. The re- -, as adopted, recon-
mended that the &c. ittee, consisting Of
Hon. A. j. Edgorton, Hon. Hugh j. Campbell
and 4. c. Mellettc, be appointed to guard
The interests Of tie constitutional movement
for statehood in south Dakota. The question
of appointing presidential electors in the
spring was left to the discretion Of the com
mittec: that the convention again rcassemble
here July 10 next.
A letter from ID. W. Diggs, Of Milbank,
treasurer-e]cct under the state organization.
was read, in which he says that the interest
in the statehood movement is not waning, Is
more earnest than ever, and that he will do
al in his power To carry ont the program Of
division and admission under the Sioux Falls
constitution, and may always be counted on
o do his part.
Judge Campb,n was unavoidably prevented
from attending, but sent a letter, saying:
think that the convention should pass an
ordinance changing the name TO South Da-
kota. This is important, as our northern
friends are already FESTIVE under that move
at Washington, which means to ignore Us. /
also think that the convention should a
steps TO distinctly assure the people that If
congress does nothing this winter, something
will be done BY us next summer. | am unal-
terably and unQualiledly for sticking to the
movement for statehood for south Dakota. IL
the convention can unite upon any practicable
plan for a forward aggressive movement next
summer, / am for that. If it cannot, then !
am for a movement at the right time to form
ulate a plan. That time will probably be next
spring; so say to the friends that ! am with
them in any forward move. The fact is, that
as a matter Of dollars and cents, leaving out cv-
cry higher consideration south Dakota cannot
afford to let the present term Of good times
and plenty Of money end, "a it will in a few
! years, before she secures statehood. We must
be a state in the union inside Of twenty-four
months. If we cannot In one way then we
viii In another. The sentiment Is emphatic
that unless divided and admitted we would
prefer to remain a territory.
A permanent committee was appointed con-
sisting Of 4. T. Crossing, assisted by Asher f.
Pay, TO compile statistics to be used IN the
preparation Of pamphlets forfeiture use. Both
are Huron newspaper men.
The Daily News will appeartomorrow morn
ing. Huron 81 Woods are editors and pro-
prietors.
Judge Eagerton left for st. Paul this morn
ing to attend a meeting of the Masonic grand
lodge of Minnesota, to which ne has belonged
for thirty years.
The Huron board Of trade took the members
of the convention to see the coal Shaft, and
all were convinced that Huron's coal find was
genuine.

Democrats from different sections Of tn
state are arriving here this morning TO al
tend an important meeting which is TO b
held this afternoon with the object of ar
proving a plan for organizing the part

Democracy in more than one congressions

be subordinate clubs or legions in all tn

Of determining whether or o the o~rganiza-
ton shall continue to exist. Incidentally
the action of the Illinois Central in maxi
ing n rate Of two cents per mile on one

for consideration, and is likely TO create
something OF a turmoil. Some of the
managers are in favor Of issuing nothing
but a five thousand mile ticket at two
cents per mile, while others want I 0 stick
TO the reduced rate for two thousand mile
tickets and two and onc-half cents for
