TIE ADAMS MINES HUNTERS.

According to the Albuquerqe
Citizen, on last Wednesday, L. 9.
Vandvere, chief of Navajo Indian
police, took up into Gallup M che
the murderer of Benjamin Swift,
one of the party of prospectors
who have been hunting the lost
Adams mine.
Niche was captured by the Ind
ian police and confessed the crime
His story is that Swift, in company
with two Navajo boys, had gone ip-
to camp one evening. when he and
another Navajoe boy came up to
their camp and asked for some
thing to eat. Swift gave him some
supper, and went out to picket his
horses, when Niche cut stout
club and LAID it under the edge of
his blanket.
On Swift's return he was stand
ing leaning over the fire, wnen the
Indian dealt him q powerful blow.
Swift attempted to draw his re-
volver, when the second blow was
dealt and Smith staggered and fell
tn the ground. The Indian and
boys stayed around the fire some
time, Smith IN the meantime moan
Ing iii great agony. Niche finally
shot him through the body, and
afterwards made the boys help to
hide the body IN a deserted hogan,
covering 1T with leaves and dirt.
Two days afterward he returned
and shot both of Swifts horses.
Nj cha was taken to Fort Win
gate, where he will be held in close
until ,he next term of j
court.

REINCORPORATION.

Subject of Enlarging Butte.

Opinion Of City Attorney speer Upon the
Subject of Enlarging Butte.
The subject of incorporation and the
consequent enlargement of the corporate
limits of Butte is being daily discussed with
much interest by all classes. The MINER
yesterday met with City Attorney W. o.
Speer and hat gentleman int conversation
gave his views frankly. According to Mr..
Speer there is an absolute necessity for re-
incorporation. He thinks that Meaderville,
Centerville, South Butte, Burlington and
Rocker should be taken in. In drawing his
lines he would avoid Anaconda Hill, for it
is hardly possible that it can ever be made
a residence section. Now that Mayor
Kenyon has returned be is OF the opinion
that a special meeting of the City Council
should be called and the initiative of the
proposition taken by that body. Accord
ing to his idea the Council should consult
individually with the parties who will be
the most Interested. and then by formal
resolution instruct the surveyor to prepare
a map showing the new boundaries to &C.
company the petition. After that is done
the petition can be drawn and circ ulated,
and he is confident tho people will, at the
polls, ratify the proposition.

What JAS. f. Matthews & Co , of Denver,
Think of IN Copper and Lead Situr-
ton.
The circular OF Jas. F. Matthews & Co.,
under date of February Is, has the follow
ing:
Copper has been extremely quiet all the
week, in an apparent reaction from the
enormous business of the previous week,
nevertheless the exports reached the round
sum of 5000, 900 pounds, and the sales at
New York we're over 100000 pounds.
The London price eased off to ETA 12s Cd,
! and slowly recovered to EFT, while the New
York spots fell off from 1850 to 16. 80,
and all the futures about the same lumber
of points from their rela tive prices. What
was previously merely rumor touching the
vast ABSORPTION OF copper interests by the
syndicate, has now become an accepted
fact. That body practically controls all
the Arizona output and all the Montana
output, and has undoubtedly some solid
working arrangement with the Calumet &
Hecla, either in the nature OF a co-opera-
ton or a purchase, exactly which cannot be

the parties at interest, but the deal is most
likely al agreement to work in harmony.
The strike at the Rio Tinto mine, which
threatened to become as serious in it's in
fluence as the c. & H. fire, has been quietly
settled, and has thereby ended the only
menace to European production. Manu-
lecturers throughout the country are fight
i-g the advance in prices bitterly, and are
determined to hold off until the very last
moment, but their efforts will probably be
in vain.
Lead has recovered from it's undue de-
preston, and the s~peculators, who are al
ways the first ones to appreciate the true
situation, have been laying in lead very
heavily. Sales last week at the various
distributing points reached fully 5000
tons, extending over the spring months,
and were made for the most part to large
operators, although the trade caught the
spirit OF the movement in part, and bought
a little.
