Denver Men Reported TO He FlgutAng on =
Gigantic Entsrprise,
The Butte City and Denver Mining and
Milling company, capital $G,000,O00, IL the
latest big enterprise on the tapis. Denver
capital has a wonderful wide outrsAch. and
according to reports n 10 about 70 furnish
a foundation to Butte City. Mi. r. r. Pat
teraon, a Rift Of Denver to Butte, 10 the
party who is about 10 engineer the deal.
When aeon BY a reporter for the Denver
News MIR. Patterson was feaiinR very
happy. As soon a. it was possible to quiet
his praises Of Butte, the reporter asked him
il 10 wal true that he was bent on q big
mining errand. "Yes, air, II Ia = fact. You
people don't know anything about mining.
! have just succeeded after much effort IN
collecting = group Of mines aud putting
them in shape to be owned and operated by
Denver mon. Ihe last obstacle ! had to
overcome was = conflict OF claim that Is
new pending IN the United States district
court. ! had the assurance from Denver
that tangle and give them a clear, UNI
questioned title they would be ready to put
mp the stuff"
"How did you come out?"
Il took the bull by the horns, and fixed 1t
beyond power Of trouble. The trouble grew
under the United States law. ~ legality
of his patent is questioned by the former
owners, and they are having it now in the
courts. 90 to both of the l%itigantg and
nav them what they ask. Thus / rave got
contracts from both. and it doesn't make q
particle of difference to me how the court
decides it,"
"Will you describe tho property"
mot under the present status of affairs.
1t would not do, as the deal is not closed.
l can tell that the parties with whom I am
dealing pronounce il to be the bigQist gam
BILE in mining known to the west. It's q
big one, / assure you, yielding copper and
silver in rich streaks. The shaft is several
feet outside of the city limits, but the mine
runs under the city. Do you know how we
sell lots up there? No? Well, the buyer is
conditioned not to go deeper than fifty
feet. So we have no right to go nearer to
the surface than fifty feet, but we can run
under the entire brendth of the city limits.
There is a law against sinking shafts with
in the limits. So, you see, we have the
0e a#ho are the Denver parties to the
deal?"
II I'M not at liberty to give their names
just now, because arrangements are not
complete. Some of them are big men. A
mining district was named after one. !
have mndea an engagement to meet the par
ties on Monday, and feel confident the
thing will 90 through. 1t will be known as
the Butte City and Denver Mining and
company, and will have a capital
of Sc, 900, 600. How does that meet your
eye? Butte City is the greatest city of its
size in the world, and il we can only get
Denver capital circulated up there We would
show you our heels. OF course the sulphur
put all the rest of the country out OF sight,"

Closed Up Because Some Persons wanted
to Use 1t AS u Corral.
Mr.. A. M. Hotter has seen an article in
an evening paper of yesterday concerning
the cul-de-sac running back of the Granite
and Bailey blocks and opening into Sixth
avenue. The article says: A a matter OF
right, the alley should have been run
through to Edwards street long ago. but it
was permitted to be closed on Edwards
street and ia to be closed on Sixth avenue,
unless some action is taken to prevent it.
1t is surmised by some that Mr.. Hotter has
taken this action for the reason that the
city refused him permission to buildpa one-
story house between the Bailey and Gold
blocks" Mr.. Hotter says he was Obliged
to put a fence at Sixth avenue, closing up
the cul-de-sac, because parties we're using
it for q corral and as a sort of commons.
Owners and tenants of buildings adjoining
the ground who have occasion to use the
alley MI. Hotter says, have always been
permitted to do SO.

Much attention is being bestowed at
present upon the relations of the railroads
to the Worlds fair and the part they have
to play in making it a success. Without
efficient measures adopted on the part OF
the roads for bringing people to Chicago
the fair cannot be made a financial success,
and, therefore, the facilities of the roads
for doing what ia required of them is q
matter Of more than ordinary interest. 1t
has been computed that to make the fair
the success that is hoped for it the admis-
siona must foot up in the neighborhood OF
$4,000, GOO. OF these the roads are expected
to bring in 10000. 600. The fair is to be
open for six months, and in order to do
what is required of them the roads will
have to land in the city every day the fair
is open, not counting Sundays, $4,000 peo-
pie. Can they do 1T?
There are twenty passenger roads runs
ming into Chicago at the present time. The
combined passenger equipment is 6.l6l cars.
Not the sixth part of these cars are in use
in running trains into Chicago, at least 50
far as the roads not doing a suburban bus
mess are concerned. The others are needed
on other parts of the companies systems.
Were every through train now running into
Chicago to contain eight oars, and every car
to contain sixty people, the number that all
the roads combined would unload each
day would be Sc, 100. The number of cars
making up these trains would be 936. The
number required TO bring on $4,000 would
be 2,117. The additions required to give
the roads enough equipment to properly
handle the people would be twice the diff
ference between 936 and 2,l17, or 1852.
None of them has now any more rolling
stock than is sufficient to take care OF its
ordinary business. Some of them are sorely
pressed at times even now to furnish ac-
commodation to parties demanding it at
their hands. During the last summer the
Michigan Central road had in quite a NUM-
Der of cases to decline furnishing special
trains to parties seeking them and willing
to guarantee the company's price for
them. It simply had not the cars to handle
the business. Yet the Michigan Central is
a. we'll equipped a road as runs into Chi
cago. From this it would appear that the
roads are all wofully short of passenger
equipment and that they will prove unequal
to the work assigned them during the
worlds fair. unless they take very energetic
means of providing themselves with the
necessary rolling stock.-Chicago Post.

Ohio & Mississippi Changes.

Rumors concerning a change in the
ownership of the Ohio T. Mississippi road
have again been put in circulation. The
committee of London stockholders have, it
is said, obtained a majority of the stock by
proxy, and are now engaged in negotiating
a deal presumably in the interests of the
Baltimore " Ohio road. The annual meet
ing of the Ohio & Mississippi has been post
poned till Oct. 16, 40 rs to enable it to get
through with its negotiations with the
Baltimore d Ohio. Whatever the result
of these negotiations may be, it is
said that important changes will be made
in the board of directors. The Ohio & Mis-
sissippi has been managed in the interest
of the Baltimore & Ohio for years. Its
line has furnished the latter road
direct connection between Cincinnati and
st. Louis, and close traffic contracts now
exist between the two companies. The
Baltimore d Ohio has been working to So
cure the property ON its own terms, and
has in various ways avoided a settlement
with the owners, while at the same time
keeping the road out of hostile hands. The
completed have been pending for a year.
The Vanderbilt Morgan interests through
M. Il. Ingalls,, president of the Chesapeake
d Ohio, made earnest efforts this summer
to secure cantrol in order TO give the Chesa-
peake g. Ohio direct connection with st.
lIOulb. lAebS oAOItS uOuptlobb DIOuSut bu6
Baltimore & Ohio to realize the Importance
of prompt action and hastened the con-
summation of the deal. If the deal is car
ried out it will further strengthen the
position of the Baltimore & Ohio as a trunk
line. Whether or not the Vanderbilts can
obstruct the execution of the plan agreed
upon by Mr.. Bacon with the English stock
holders of the Ohio u Mississippi depends
largely pom how complete nave been the
negotiations conducted abroad.
The new financial policy of the Baltimore
IL Ohio railroad hasIbeen outlined. It is said
that S10,O 600, 900 new stock will be issued.
The plan is to use ST. 900, 900 in carrying out
the deal made last January with the Pitts
burg IL Western railroad; to reserve S5,0OO.-
600 for betterments and improvements, and
to distribute S., 0,O00 as a stock dividend.
Conservative bankers estimate that between
s 5000, 900 and $4,000, 900 Baltimore d Ohio
stock has been purchased by English in
vestors recently. All the floating stock in
the market is believed to have been alb
sorbed. Some of the foreign purchasers
are said to have been induced by the knowl-
edge that the deal with the Ohio d Missis-
sippi would be effected.

RrevitieS.

The wheat movement in the northwest
has reached prodigious proportions, and
still continues. In one week Duluth and
Minneapolis together received $500, 900
bushels, and at Duluth alone 3,726 carloads
were inspected in the week, the receipts
there being $685. 93 bushels.
The corn crop of the state of Kansas alone
for this year is estimated at the tremendous
amount of 1861 400, 900 bushels, which ia
enough to give more than two bushels and
a half to every man, women and child in
the country, and means an immense bus
mess for the railroads and prosperity for
the Kansas farmers.
The Louisville d Nashville railroad ia a
good example of southern properties that
are doing we'll for their owners. The fig
ures for the year ended June 30 show a sur
plus of $65G.000 earned after paying. all
charges and five per cent dividend on the
stock. The company earned nearly six and
one-half per cent on the stock.
Superintendent Cardin has ordered wheat
shipments to the Northern Pacific Elevator
company to stop for the present, the 800. 900
bushel elevator being full. The company
is buying grain at eighty elevators and
warehouses along the Northern Pacific line.
and will handle from two to four million
bushels during the season.

She was picked up and brought to the city,
and physicians have been doing all in their

at this writing she is not expected to live
but a short time. The young lady was the
