fourth and fifth levels. rhs VI sterl position and (with us) unique ehsrac- scter of this ore, suggest the rpossibil- ity that it is part of different sys- tenn of ore bodies than that which we have hitherto hesn following. It con tains considerable amount of the somewhat rare mineral, albsndits, a sulphide of manganese. A winze has been sunk 25 feet in the south drift on this level, disclosing shoot of low grad manganese. which has since been cut on the filth level and found to be very much improved in grade.
 
 Our arrival at water level in the ..t, Ky Cuss mine will probably pre- clude the possibility of going much deeper at present. The principal ore shoot Of the mine, designated on the sixth level as the No. stope, has ben opened and almost exhausted AlbAAt NAlN HhllhNN iO ktiie AthFlg ht which point it continues into the wat CT with undiminisheI size and much better grade than near the surface. At the surface the ore averaged about 30 ounces silver, trace fl gold and un- der , per cent lead. Al the sixth level the average grade is about 75 ounces silver, ounce goll and 10 per cent lead. The country rock on this level is, for the most part, a hard, compact, white limestone, with very lew Assures, and it is thought that much less difficulty would be expeT- | ienced in going below water level here | than in locations in the district where | previous attemp-s have been made, and where the loose and much frac- tured rock gave ready entrance tO the water. Should further work or the level disclose the existence of other 1 shoots going below water, as seems | quite likely, it will undoubtedly be a ! profitable investment 10 equip the mine with steam pumps of sufficient capacity to enable us to continue sinking.
 
 On the West Side vein, the north drift on the sixth level has been ex- tended lSO feet towards the Toughnut. It Is proposed to cou'inIe this drift as far north as the ma n shalt Of that mine as means of prospecting the roughnut grourd at water level. The vein in the new ground so far opened has been very small, but occasionally oI very good grade and strikingly high in gold. The end Of this drift is st present $50 feet distant from the Toughnut main shaft.

The Former Leader Of the Seven Traveller,
Sentenced

The Former Leader Of the Seven Traveller,
Sentenced.
John Wallace is q young colored man whose
appearance il good index to his character.
three or four years ago he was the leader of a
gang OF desperate young thieves who called
themselves the Seven Travellers but the
gang was broken up after they had robbed
several cars on the Baltimore and Ohio rail-
road. both in this city and in West Virginia.
Wallace was in the Police Court today for
shooting crap" carrying pistol and stealing
an ovcrcoat from an old colored man named
David Coleman Stotts. He stole the coat from
where Stotts was at work, near the government
printing Office.
Two days ago Stotts saw Wallace on the street
wearing his coat and he pursued him to regain
MS property but Wallace drew revolver
which frightened the old man, and the thief
r ran into Jackson's alley and disappeared in q
Yesterday morning Policemen Mccormick

uoned by Judge Miller. but was unable to tell
any thing that was beneficial to himself.
lawyer Peyton, for the prisoner. made no
defense to the charge of CARRYING the pistol,
but he claimed that tine information for larceny
had oeen made out wrong. as the property was
iald In the name of David c. Stotts and it
should have been Coleman Stotts.
Judge Miller said he supposed that it had
been laid in the name by which Stotts is best
known.
Stotts was called up and asked what his wife
called him.
Papa" was his response, and the old man
laughed heartily as he thought Of his better
haI1 endearing name for him.
Judge Miller then took hand in the pro-
ceedlngs and gave Wallace all he could under
the law
For the theft q sentence Of six months was
imposed. fine OF $50 or three months was
imposed in the pistol case and for shooting
crap an additional fine of $50 or three months
was imposed.

That Veto Caused some Exc,t.m.,t

The veto by the President yesterday of the
bill creating the bureau Of record and pensions
IN the War Department has caused a good deal
OF furry in army circles, a. well as among the
civilian employees of the department. It has
been expected for some time that the President
would take this course, but the veto itseK nee
essarily stirred people up. Dr. Ainsworth. the
surgeon in charge VI the division, was not ct an
surprised, as he had had an inkling Of the Presi-
1 es decisaon- There are two parties now in
the War Department those who believe that
the veto was justifable and those who think
that there are plenty Of precedsnts for its ap-
Provsl, while between these two NO one cares g

NOT UNITED WITH sOOIALIsrs
Mrs. Corinne 8. Brown Of Chicago is one of
the most advanced thinkers in the convention
with decided leaning toward socialism
She has been for some time past interested
in all branches of the labor question. She was
even more emphatic in her denial of the ste te-
tween the suffragists and the socialists.
Il am not sure Just whether am A socialist
or NOT" said Mrs. Brown to the reporter. who
talked with her behind the scenes this morn
ing. But am familiar with all their methods
as well as with those Of the suffragists and I
know that there is not a sign of any agreement
or union between the two classes
I'm the first place the suffrage movement de-
r1ves Its greatest assistance from the Farmers
Alliance and the American Federation of Labor.
The alliance is by no means socialistic and the
federation at its last meeting in Detroit voted
down every motion with socialistic Tendencies.
AT one time it was understood that the suf-
frage association would cast its influence with
any party that would agree to put suffrage in
its platform. At the socialists meeting in Gin
cinnati IA years ago they expressed themselves
as In favor OF equal political rights for both
sexes, but these overtures were rejected by the
women firmly and distinctly and In such a wav
meant by it.
ANrxus OF THE ATTACK.
The animus for the present attack is plain
enough 1t 10 started by few eastern women
who have feeling Of jealousy and intense
luminosity against some Of the younger and
more radical members Of the association. And
against the western and southern women who
are are .iiying themselves to the labor movement
enmity Il used by certain shrewd, scheming
politicians to give set back to the labor move
ment
They see in the appearance Of women q .
poiiticsi factor endowed with the right of suf-
rage the overthrow Of rings and political lob
bery and they are doing their best TO cast disre-
Pute ON the woman suffrage movement"
