250 sacks of ore have been shipped from the Black Diamond mine in the Dragoon mountains and 80 sacks more are awaiting shipment.
 J. E. Butler came in yesterday from there and brought some magnificent samples of the ore. It is copper and silver and carries almost every known color. This mine has not been nor, than scratched, ana with capital prop. erly used, would undoubtedly make aname for itself. The present own CTS are doing all they can and as fae, as the ore extracted can be shipped, the money will go back into develop ment work. The vein which is ap- parantly a strong one can be tapped at depth of 400 feet. by q tunnel ana probably some such plan will be car ried ont. The vein is feet wide in several places where work has been done and improves with depth.

CAPT. sCHLEY's DISPATCH.
No Hostility Toward the Baitimore's Men
Now-Sunday Work on the War ship..


Now-sunday Work on the War ships.
Acablegram received by Secretary Tracy
from Capt. Schley. dated Valparaiso. Chile,
yesterday. states that there are no indications
Of any feeling Of hostility toward the Balti-
more's company at Valparaiso.
The Navy Department announced this morn
ing. in issuing thi. csblegran .or publication,
that II was not sent by Capt Schley in response
to any inquiry from here. Ii was probably in
spired by the receipt at Valparaiso of cable
grams from friends of the officers of the ship
asking about the truth OF the rumor
that was abroad here a couple of days
ago that the Baltimore had been blown up by
the Chileans. Capt Schley il is thoug ht
undoubtedly considered that il such Q rumor
were in circulation at home he had better
deny II officially. His remark about the lack of
hostility toward his men is taken to mean
thst there are no open signs Of
anfagonism just now. whatever may have been
the state of the public feeling nearly q month
ago, when the attack was made on the crew in
the city.
THE SUNDAY WORK AT TIE rAvr YARDS
Regarding the report Of unusual activity and
Sunday work in the navy yards, it is said at the
Navy Department that it has no warlike sig
nificance. No order has been sent from the de-
partment for Sunday work and it is not
known officially that there has been any. Ii
has been common practice to work force OF
men overtime at the navy yards when there
was a particular need for haste, and
If work has been pushed on Sundays
1t has been in pursuance Of the general order
to hasten the work of repair on the ships in
order to have them in readiness for their win
ter. cruises. The order in the case Of the Mian-
tonomah was issued weeks ago.
The monitor has gone into commission,
which puts the government to considerable ex-
pense to maintain her. so that it is in the in
terest OF economy to hasten her completion
and put her in serviceable condition.
In the case of the Atlanta, orders were sent
to complete her repairs in all haste when dis
quieting news was received from Brazil last
week with the intention of sending her to Rio
The orders have not been countermanded. not
Withstanding the disappearance Of the ur-
gent features OF the situation in Brazil
so that work done on the vessel yesterday was
in pursuance Of the original order. The con-
struction bureau Of the navy reports that while
the work Of repair Of the ships has been pro-
gresslng rapidly, as a matter of fact the bu-
reau itself has less work under way at present
than for months past.
