claims were recently bonded to Jno. A.

congratulated on the exposure of q body of
high grade ore four feet wide. Another,

rank under the management of w. l..
SEaulding. He reports developments as
follows: A drift on the ledge i'll 600 feet, ore
is continuous 43G feet along the ledge; two
crosa-cuts show a width of ledge twenty
five fee, with four to six feet of solid ore,
the balance concentrating ore. This mine
Is near Mullan.
A new concentration for the Gem fraction
on Canon creek is under contemplation.
A new body of ore has been exposed on
the kilbuck, near Osborn. The discovery
was made on the s%urfuce. The location is
an old one and much development work has
been done on it.
The Silver King, an old location on Gov
nme gulch, three miles west of Ward.
ner, announces the discovery of Il chute OF
chloride ore. Billy Merry has stuck TO this
location with %tenacity worthy of a slayer
lie Is now running a tunnel to tap this rich
ore.
The Bunker Hill and Sullivan compan,
find that their new mammoth emit ratio
does not handle enough O e. Their crush
ing capacity is ample and they are nov
making twenty new jigs to put in. Witt

Sprague, Warner q Co.. Chicago, $4,000;

He also gave Wallace d Thornburgh
a mortgage on tt, ee lots in the

Mr.. NJ. Meyendorff, the senior member of
the firm, SAYS the embarrassment was prin-
cipally caused by mismanagement of the
Great Falls branch, where a deficiency of
$500 in stock and other losses amounting
to $1,000 we're discovered. There were
slow collections to assist the difficulty and
failing to raise the amount of maturing
bills and accounts, the attachments fol-
owed. Should it be found that the assets
in stock and collectable bills are equal to
the indebtedness of the firm, arrangements
NAV be made by which business can be
resumed.

A few days ago tho president of the Vol
unteer Mining company had occasion to
visit the Volunteer mine with n view of dis
posing of the machinery. says FAIR Flay IN
the Inter Mountain, now lying idle there
as the mine had been closed down some
three weeks back. The doors had previous.
ly been locked. the windows had been nailed
up and the mine was left "a a monument
of the enterprise of the Butte stockholders
whose faith in the property was equailed
only by the nhmberless assessments they
cheerfully paid.
Il is the intention of the company to plat
out the ground into city lots and dispose OF
all disposable property about the mine. The
president was surprised, on reaching the
hosting works, to find tho door had been
broken open and 400 pounds Of high
grade ore had been sacked up and stolen
away in tho night. When it will be
remembered that this ore was almost the
total output for an expenditure of not less
than S1O0,0 600, contributed principally by
hard working men of Butte, it make the
crime doubly revolving.

Work is to be Immediately resumed on
the Obelisk mine. a couple of miles this
eide of Basin, the parties who were anxious
to develop the mine having purchased the
interests Of the partners who were inclined
to do nothing. The tunnel is to be con-
tinued to the lead and an upralse made. A
shaft will be sunk from the end of the tun-
mel. and should the development show a
sufficient body of ore, a mill will be erected
for its reduction. 1t is to be hoped that the
ore will be found.
Very favorable reports come from the

of tho assignment was due to the fact that
the business had been running behind for
the last three months and the hotel COM
pany, rather than go II further in debt,
had decided to make assignment for the
benefit OF their creditors. 1t was stated ut
the hotel last night the house would proba-

east for about a month. He was expected
here Wednesday evening. The hotel peo-
ple thought he would probably arrive to-
dav. The hotel was closed for business but
tho guests were allowed to occupy their
rooms and the office was open last night.
No business was done at the bar and IN the
billiard room, and the dining room was
also closed. Only such employees were re-
tanned as were necessary to takeScare OF the
property and look after the guests for the
present.
The assignee said he did not purpose to
carry on the business, and would dispose OF
the property at the earliest possible mo-
