The Royal Company's Mine.

". w. Turney, Is. Smiley and Carroll
Swain, of PhilipsbuRe. are the fortunate
owners of what, from all reports, is a bo-
nanza gold mine. says the Inter Mountain.
1t is situated in the Bender mining dis
triot. above Granite mountain. and ia the
only gold proposition vet discovered in that
section. though Mr.. Turney says tons and
tons OF rich gold float can be seen in the
timbe and around the hills.
The property in which he is one of the
principal owners ID operated under the title
OF the Royal Gold and Silver Mining com
pany. 1t was incorporated in DAY of this
year, though they havo been engaged in
working their claims for the past two years.
These consist of the Etna, Extension and
Pine Tree lodes, and 100 acres of placer
ground. They arc situated on a hill and
are opened up by a tunnel which penetrates
the three claims running on the cou SO of
the vein. The tunnel taps the vein |, 900 feet
from the surface. There are two discovery
sha1ts on the property. IGe owners have
been steadily developing the property and
but little has been said or heard about their
operations, though from Mr.. lurney's c
RESERVATIONS, and he is reliable gentleman,
they have another Drum Lummon. He has
samples OF the quartz. a free milling ore,
which sparhles with the yellow metal. He
also has assay certificates from Carney &
Hand, of this city, which show the samples
assayed within the past year, to run from
$5o to nearly. $1,000 per ton. while the gen.
eral average is at lc asst $40. MIR. Tuyney
says there are at least three separate and
distinct veins, and the one they have been
working is from tour to twelve feet. Sew
eral hundred tons OF ore are on the dump,
taken out in development. No effort at ore
e1tractlon has been made. Satisfied that
they have a big mine, the gentlemen have
decided to erect a tiye-stamp mill and ex-
poet to have it in operation by October.

The East Granite suspens,on.

The East Granite company has SUSPENDED
work on their mine for lack of treasury
funds. A meeting has been called for July
II, when the stockholders will discuss the
situation, and it is possible work will then
be resumed. The shaft is down 800 feet.
with fourteen inches Of twenty-five ounce
ore in the workings, and mixed ores which
assay away up in the hundreds. The mine
is not = producer, and time will have to
elapse until the treasury can be repleted
before any more work will DO done.

8. r. Graves, agent for the American Ex-

visit to the Potosi Mining company's prop

Miner. The property consists Of three
claims and 10 located in one OF the old
placer camps of Montana. The tunnel on
the quartette is now in 900 feet and is be-
ing driven with two men. The ore in the
face of .hs tunnel is a decomposed gold
bearing Quartzite. and is rich in the yellow
metal. Mr.. Graves brought back with him

THE WORLD ON WHEELS.
The Cut In West Bound Rates an
Old Story, Repeated Each
Year.
Western Lines Will Not be Used
as Catspaws by Their East
ern Connections.
Trsfic Managers who May Follow Leeds
Now and Strong Federation of
Railway Employees.

In cutting west-bound rates from the sea
board to st. Paul since the opening Of nav
ieation the lake and rail lines have beer
but following the practices they have in
dulged in for several years back. says the
Chicago Post. The results have been en-
tirely different, however. They have
doubtless been very disappointing to the
originators of the cut rates and tho conse-
auent Generalization. Nominally. the
cutting 10 all done by the lake end of the
combination, and the trunk line magnates
appear to fume and fret at the action OF
their associates, but profess their utesr IN
ability to prevent their naughty proceed
ines. As a matter Of fact. the lake lines
that do the cutting are owned II con-
trolled by the very same men mat W
and control the trunk lines. 1t is only rea-
sonable to suppose that the owners Of these
lake lines have control Of the policy pur-
sued by them. When they announce that
ton oocasioned, they must believe the pub
lilo is more credulous and gullible than the
same public is willing to admit it is.
The fact is that the cutting OF rates by
the lake lines is but part of a we'll consid-
cred and deep laid plan. 1t is a plan for
raking in all there ia in tho traffic them
selves and throwing all the loss on their
western connections. The announcement
of cut rates by the lake and rail lines In
previous years has bsen the signal for local
rates from Chicago to st. Paul to 20 to
smash, and the eastern roads were then able
to avail themselves of these low rates to
maintain their low through rates for the
remainder Of tho season. 1t must be re-
membered that the chief portion OF the
freight which goes by the lake lines is low
rate freight, about the delivery of which
there is no particular hurry. The high
priced fast freight. which yields by far the
largest revenue to the roads, though the
tonnage may seem to be exceed
ingly small, all comes from the east
by the all rail routes. On it they
got full rates TO Chicago, and from this
point were able to avail themselves Of the
low rates on the western roads. The dlsap-
pointing part Of the programme this year
has been the failure Of the western roads to
carry out their part Of it, as expected, and
to cut rates from this point to st: Paul.
The western roads, in short, have become
tired of being used rs a cats paw by their
eastern connections. They have been too
burned in the past to repeat the
experiment., and they have resolutely re-
fused to shade their rates this year In the
slightest degree for the benefit OF their
eastern connections. It begins to look ash
they had determined to pursue this policy
occasioned by the low lake and rail routes
will have to stay where it belongs this
wear, and not be borne by the western
fORdS.
