There was quite sensation on the ~.
Louis Mining exchange last week. whom the
announcement WAS made that the BisMstal-
lilo had passed its dividend for the month.
The stock had been selling ut 442.5O .
share, but the announcement sent il down to
S24 for 1o0-share lots. The news took the
eral months tho feeling has been that the
Granite Mountoin was likely to pass q divi-
dend at almost any time, but there was no
ideathat the Bi-NetAllio would do 70. The
reasons given by President Fusz for the as-
tion are that the company ID in debt $780,
600. the amount Of the regular dividend,
and il was decided to pass one dividend,
square and commence free Of debt. The
company has recently put up : 100-ton
stamp mill, built . railroad spur to the
mine and acquired q water right for an
electrical plant. All OF this exhausted the
company's surplus. President Fusz says
a dividend will undoubtedly be paid next
month. Tho Bi-Nstallic paid Its first div
idend, twenty-five eents = share, July 10,
1890, and after paying three Of twenty-five
cents. the next fftesn were for thirty-hvs
cents a share, making $4,000 q month,
Ths total paid in dividends il $1,200,0O0, at
the rate of Sc a share. This property il cap
italized for S., 100000 in $25 shares.
Il is possible that tho first effect Of the
passing of the dividend will be to dsprsss
the ST. Louis mining market. The opera
tors have had q rough road during 1891.
Many Of them went into ventures which
proved to DO failures and the bears will use
the Bi-Netalis incident to further their
plans. As the passing Of the dividend was
not due to any failure of the mine, but tho
money was used to better the plant, 1t is
difficult to Gee how it could be used legiti-
mately to bear the stock.

SAY WE HAVE DIAMONDS.
The Story Told by a New York Jewelsr to
n NeWEpAper Man.

The Story Told by a New York Jeweler to
n Newspaper Man.
According to a story sent the San Fran
cisco Chronicle by it's New York correspon-
dent there il a diamond fold somewhere in
to a Gotham gem dealer, and this is what
the latter said:
"There are diamonds in Montana and its
only a question Of time when they will bs
unearthed. How do I know? Well, Ill tell
you. Some twenty years ago, probably, l
received q yisit one bright morning from a
couple of roughly dressed individuals whom
I judged to be miners. Ny surmise was
ing up in Montana. and in their sluicing
and hydraulioing they had found some
bright quartz crystals, which they submits
ted to my inspection as an expert. Well, I
was astonished, for they were first vater
diamonds, and no mistake. 1 informed
more particulars. but only in a general way
would they tell me Of tho location of their
ind. They impressed me with the truth
fulnsas of their story.
After plsdging me to secrecy they gave
me this stone, which you can plainly see ia
= diamond. The others they teok with
them, saying they would return to Nom
tana, secure a large number of stones, re-
turn to New Yopk and have mo cut and
dispose of them for their account. Ac-
oordingly they left on this Star of tho West
for Panama, thence to San Francisco by
the Golden Gate or Golden Age, / forget
which. From there they wrote me that
they would sail on the Brother Jonathan,
whose captain was engaged to marry q Cali
fornia hslress on hcr return trip for Port
land. Oregon, en- route for Montana. Well,
the Brother Jonathan foundsred in a gale,
Will all on board, and the seoret of tho
diamonds went down with them"

The chief platinum producing district
of North America is upon the north fork
of the Similkameen river, north of the
sOkanogan country in British Columbia.
A mining expert, writing to the London
Iron Age, sa s: ''Placer mining in this
district yields both gold and platinum,
the latter being found, like the gold, in
grains and small nuggets. A notable
quantity of platinum has already been
obtained from this diskrict. One firm
in the United States claims to have
purchased, within the last year OF two,
fully 1000 ounces of British Columbia
platinum, and it is well known that a
portion of the yield of this district has
found its way to the London market.
An increased output may be expected.
as the Tulameen hydraulic and i'm
provement company has made prepara-
tions to begin hydraulic mining on a
large scale with the advent OF spring.

The conservative and liberal-unionist
newspapers are fomenting the popular
excitement on the subject of the Rus
sian advance into the Pamir region, and
the bold attempts of the Russians to
arouse trouble in Afghanistan. The to-
ries insist that Russia has been encour-
aged by the prospect of Mr.. Gladstone's
return to power to renew her aggres-
-sions near the Indian frontier. The st.
James Gazette yesterday says that there
is every reason to believe attempts will
be made by Russin to overstep the
Afghan frontier along the whole line,
and that it is difficult to exaggerate the
gravity OF the crisis. A space of less
than 100 miles separates the English
from the Russian outposts.

Rome advices say that King Humbert
will visit the Genoa Columbus Exposit-
ion on September Sth.. Greece is the
only power which has not notified the
italian government that it will be repre-
sented at the grand naval demonstration
in the harbor. The fact that France is
to send squadron has irritated the
friends of the triple alliance, who speak
in the press of the pushing spirit of the
French government. The Populo Ro-
mano especially has exerted itself to let
the French know that they were not
wanted at the demonstration, despite
the fact that their government had been
notified as to date when the king would
be present.

Elmore, Sanborn & Co., of Astoria,
who profess to have complete returns OF
the salmon pack at the Columbiae river
cannerics in Astoria and along the river,
on both the Oregon and Washington
shores, report as follows: ''The season
has been remarkable for the scarcity in
the Columbia of chinook salmon, the
kind on which the celebrity of this river
is based. We find, from careful esti-
mates, which will include fish caught
up to date, that the twenty-five can
neries on the Columbia river have
packed 49, 600 cases of all grades. The
proportion of royal chinook is 24S, 600
cases, the remaining 200, ,0G0 cases being
composed of sfeelheads and bluebacks,
quality as compared with last years
pack, there is decrease this season of
100000 cases of royal chinook. The
total pack, however, exceeds that OF last
year by 600 cases. This increase is
largely due to the larger production in
the canneries at the cascades and the
dalles, where three-fourths of the pack
were steeiheads and bluebacks. The
season has been stormy. There has
been freshet in the river all summer,
owing to the tardy melting of snow in
the mountain ranges. The canneries
have sold all their best salmon at an ad-
vance on last years prices. Two ships
are now loading here with salmon for
London and one ship is loading for New
York. Advices from Alaska indicate
that the pack will be limited to one-half
that of last year, as was agreed upon in
British Columbia. The pack on the
Fraser river is comparative failure, and
the total product of that country will
not exceed one-half of last years pack.
