The Southern Cross,

Mr.. John Mcconnell, superintendent OF
the Southern Cross company, is over from
the mine. He reports developments pro-
crossing, although the working force is re-
duced, pending experimental tests, which
are now in progress. He is very enthusiast
tic about the property, and the hackneyed
phrase, ''the greatest mine in Montana is
but faint expression of what he has to
say concerning it. So much has been said
about this property that the gentleman was
asked to give some details of the workings
and developments of the mine. He said in
substance: From an open cut on the sur
face, which shows the vein to be twenty-five
feet in width, shaft following the incline
of the vein has been sunk to depth of 252
feet, all in ore except the last fifteen feet,
der to preserve the angle of the shaft. A
cross-cut back of the shaft shows the vein
to have width of twenty-four feet; levels
have been run east eighty-five feet, and
west 1870 feet: various cross-cuts on this
level have been made showing the uniform
width of the vein to be nearly 25 feet, al
though many portions of it are much wider.
Slopes on this level are on six setts of tim
bers and upwards of thirty-fve feet in
width. all in pay ore averaging $40, making
showing hard to beat in this or any
country.
COuAAk up 10 Uu0 1OU-1OOG 1eV6l Ll0 east
is in good ore as far as the level is
driven, and the west in good ore and the
whole of the $50 feet is exposed to view; the
vein in this level is about % feet be-
tween walls with an average of Is feet of
good paying ore, much of which will assay
$35 to $40 per ton. Air shafts are down
from the surface, and the different levels
are connected by winze. The mine is thor
ouRhly opened SO that small force can
knock down enough ore to keep the best
thirty stamp mill in the country in opera
ton. The levels at the 100 have not been
extended any very great distance, but as
the surface showing, as we'll as the develop
ments, at $50 are in ore. it is safe to say it
is continuous from the 150 up. A thorough
measurement of the ore bodies has never
been made. but there is blocked out in the
mine to-day fully 10000 tons of ore while
the vein is as strong at the end as at any
portion of the mine, and stronger at the
bottom than at any place between it and
the surface. The workings as far as prose-
cuted show continuity in length and width.
can erroneous impression:hasg gone out re-
garding the nature of the ore: there is moth
ing base about it; it is very fine in quality,
SO much SO that it don't save well on plates,
but as casual opinion, based on tests made
OF car load in Butte, would say it is
pure matchmaking proposition"

He Criticises German Newspapers-His
Relations With the Liberals.

A Berlin special to the New York Herald says:
Herr Julius Kitterhaus of the Frankfurter
Journal publishes an interview with Prince
Bismarck, whom he visited at Frciderichsrhue.
When Herr Ritterhaus expressed surprise that
the prince consented to receive the German
journalists the princes answer was: ':why
should refuse to receive the representatives
of the respectable press? Had the German jour
nalists asked me would have received them,
but am fallen from greatness, especially for
those once dependent on me. The Post and
Kolnische Zeitung neglect me. Though the
German press is cowardly and lacks courage
only the socialistic press has any pluck. ,s...,
II shall maintain certain relations with ma
tional liberals, with whom always got ON we'll
Nor is it true, is alleged, that threatened To-
squeeze them against the wall until they
squealed. They rather tried to wrest the power
from me. As to Miguel and Benninper. the
former Is one Of the best speakers we have.
MIGUEL played an active part with me in con-
clliating the Catholics. Miqaels plans of fiscal
reform know not in detail, but they must have
been approved in high quarters"
The prince said he might possibly write his
memoirs but the archives were not so easy of
access as formerly to him. The prince de-
clined to enter on the causes of his retirement
beyond saying that it was brought about by
differences OF opinion between him and the
kaiser.

AN ELECTRIC CAR RUNS AWAY.
Frixhtful Accident ut Lancaster Only
Narrowly Prevented.

What came near being q frightful accident
occurred on the Lancaster, Pa, electric rail-
way last evening. The Sunday school Of the
Duke Street Methodist Church had picnic at
Rocky Springs, and many of the participants
went mp to Potts Park to take the electric car
for home. The car was crowded when it
started for the city, many persons hanging on
the sides. 1t had descended o steep hill about
800 yards. when the single brakeman lost con-
troll and it began rapidly to descend A fearful
panic took possession Of the passengers who
began to leap from the car, the second man to
do SO being the conductor, who was seriously
injured.
The cries Of horror from the passengers were
taken up by their friends at the bottom of the
hill, who saw the car descending with great
rapidly, which threatened to cause it to jump
into the Conestoga. The Car jumped the stop
ping block ut the bottom Of the hill and by
miraculous turn avoided q telegraph pole i'm
mediately ahead and ran upon the bridge,
where 1t was brought to Q standstill. In and
about the car over q dozen women had fallen
In faint and were carried into the hotel,
nearly all revivlng in a short time. Quite q
number received painful injnries by jumping,
but these were overlooked in the fortunate es-
cape from more frightful possibilities. The
electric road has only been in operation few
weeks and is yet only partially completed. The
patronage has been entirely too great for the
accommodations, and this. taken in connection
with the inexperience Of the operatives, caused
the accident.

THE LECONEY MURDER.
A Man in Custody Who May Have
Killed Annie.

Joseph Dunn is locked up in the Camden, N. j.,
Jail on the charge of having murdered Annie
Leconey. He had been arrested on the charge
Of beating his wife, and then his mother -in-law,
Mrs. Durham, made sworn statement before
Justice Chester to the effect that he had con-
fessed to her that he had two years ago MUIR
dered young colored man near Swedeboro;
that Dunn was formerly employed by Chalkley
Leconey; that he had said that there was
money at Leconey's and that he proposed to
get some OF it, and that a week after the MUIR
der he had said to her that there was no money
at Leconeys
Prosecutor Jenkins says: "Of course took
the deepest interest in the story. No sensible
man can be induced to believe that with the
Sl,5OO rewards offered but that the garrulous
Durham woman would have long ago .squealed'
and shared her guilty knowledge of Dunn's
crime with the prosecutors Office for the pur-
pose of securing the reward l am satisfied
that Dunn does not even know Chalkley Le-
coney and never worked for him and never saw
Annie"
Chalkley Leconey was seen at late hour last
night. When informed of the arrest Of Joseph
Dunn and asked il he had ever employed man
by that name he said:
Il do not recollect Of employing a man by
the name of Dunn, but that is nothing. A
name counts for nothing. These negroes
around here have different name in each
place. While l do not know of EMPLOYING any
man by that name, still intend to 20 to Cam
den and see him. The description of him in the
papers tallies with that of man who worked
Tor me short time before the murder"

SUNOL AND BELLE HAMLIN.
A Business Like Proposition Made to the
Buffalo Millionaire.

From the Turf, Field and Farm.
An Indiana paper, the Rushville Graphic, re-
marks: "Hamlin has already made the owner
of Sunol take to the woods with Belle Hamlin.
Are the Electioneers faint heartfelt" q.
The owner of Sunol, Mr.. Robert Bonner, is
not betting man. He never made a wager in
his life. Senator Leland Stanford the breeder
OF Sunol, and who controls her this season, is
also opposed to match making. Mr.. Marvin,
the driver and manager of Sunol, has objected
to trotting the great four-year-old against aged
horses. Mr.. Hamlin understands this, but he
is persistent. We now make him a proposition
which he can either accept or carry with him
to the woods. Although the telegraph reports
that his handsome mare has just trotted a fur
long in 14A seconds. which is better than two
minute gait. the Turf, Field and Farm is au-
thorized to match Sunol against Belle Hamlin
for $4,000 a side. half forfeit, winner to take
the entire stake and entire gate money, track
to be mutually agreed upon. Mr.. o. A. Hickok
will find the money for SunOl.
This proposition, nothing being said to the
contrary, means a three-in-fve heat race which
is something Mr.. Hamlin has always fought
shy of with his fast mare.

Tracing a $4,000 Robbery.

The mystery Of the robbery of slO, in gold
from the United States Express Company in
Chicago last fall has been cleared up at last.
Alonzo Wygant, Chicago agent Of the company
was closeted with States Attorney Longenecker
for several hours yesterday and was taken
before the grand jury to tell the story Of the
crime rs it has been ferreted out The money
was in the shape Of gold bars and disappeared
unaccountably while load of the precious
metal, to the amount Of 100000, was being
taken from the depot to the cOmpany's safe.
Suspicion fell at first on John Behert, the
teamster, but there was no proof, and the
officers of the company gave out the impression
that he was not suspected and he was retained
in their employ. Detectives have been at work
on the case ever since. however, and it is
claimed that they have traced the crime to
Behert, and that he is now either under arrest
or under such close espionage that it is impossi-
BILE for him to escape. The utmost secrecy has
been obser we'd in the proceedings because it is
stated Behert had several accomplices.

also the BEST, since the paper goes not alone
into the hands Of the people Of the District of

into those Of the money-spending as well as
the money-earning portion of the community.
An advertisement in its columns therefore

people, but is really more of revival of some.
thing in vogue several years ago. 1t is the

or two of pineapple and a long pairing of
cucumber rind. Let this filed pitcher stand
for few minutes In vessel Of ice or wrap
around the pitcher towel of cracked ice and

drink, for that would injure the fine flavor.

M'GLYNN AND THE POPE.
No Hope at the Vatican for the Excom
municated Priest.

Rome Special to the New York Herald.
There 10 no shadow Of foundation for the
statement Of DR.. McGlynn's friends that he has
gained fresh footing in Rome. The pope
himself, not long ago. said through Cardinal
Rampolla that McGlynn had either to recant
Internationally and confess his guilt or in some
way induce Archbishop Corrigan to bring his
case before the vatican. The truth is DR..
McGlynn is regarded in Rome as person
whose mental faculties are not what they used
to be before he was accommodated. The ele-
walton Of Archbishop Corrigan's secretary to
the rank OF monsignor and the sweeping YER
dict Of the propaganda against DR.. Burtsell
with the pope's own approval have knocked the
confidence out Of DIR. McGlynn's enthusiastic
followers, and that is why they seek comfort
All arguments used by DR.. McGlynn's and DIR.
Burstelrs friends are familiar to the propa-
ganda, which backs Corrigan fully. The long
absence of the archbishop from New York has
no special significance. His trip to Oberam-
mergau was planned long ago.

Dickens Son In Australia.

From the Pail Mall Gazette. ~ = ~ =.

Lytton Dickens member for Wilcannia in the
New South Wales parliament, the youngest son
Of the novelist and the godson of the first Lord
Lytton, has recanted the protectionst heresy

nose and was chiefly elected because he bore
his fathers name"
