The Mohican to Go in Dry Dock.

The United States war vessel Mohican came
in from Port Orchard bay yesterday and Leaves
at o'clock this morning for Victoria. Lieu
tenant Very said last night the vessel would
probably be placed in the dry dock at Esqui-
malt, as portion of her keel was found to be
broken off. This was presumably caused by the
vessels running aground of Point Wilson COM
ing in from San Francisco. Lieutenant Very
said 1t was not absolutely necessary that she
should be placed in the dry dock but it was
thought best to do SO; that the order came from
Washington City for her to be taken to Esqui-
malt and, ii the dock is not occupied, she will
be placed in it at once. No definite orders for
the vessels cruise in Boring sea have as yet
been received

COLORADO SILVER MINERS.
Low Price of Product Induces Many o
Them to Stop Work.

G. W. elise, Denver capitalist, cousin of
James w. elise and II. r. elise. of this city, is
at the Rainier hotel, and with him are Mr.. and
Mrs. A. B. Sullivan, also of Denver. Mr.. Sulli-
van, who is banker and mining man, said last
night: "Many of the large silver mines of Col
orado are shutting down account of the low
price OF silver; and OF course the miners are
very anxious to have congress pass the free sill
yer coinage bill. Wen, ii man cannot get
81 cents an ounce for his silver, he
might just as well shut down his mine till the
price rises. Silver has this advantage over
grain and such stuf-it does not spoil by lying
in the ground, but will come out in Just good
shape ten years from now as it will today"

Locating the Crows Nest E ass Road.

The Victoria Times says of the new Canadian
Pacific line through the Crows Nest pass: "a
private letter received iu the city last evening
says that the Canadian Pacific is being located
from the summit to Fort Mcleod. The party is
now at the Piegan reserve, twenty-four miles
west of Fort Mcleod. and will make junction
with the Calgary & Edmonton road within two
weeks. The construction OF the road has, with
out doubt, been decided upon, The grades so
far are but per cent, which is considered very
light The Canadian Pacific railway is not to
have monopoly of the pass, as other lines are
asking for charters to come through. The
Canadian Pacific railway police patrol in charge
OF an officer will follow construction until it
enters British Columbia, when they will likely
go through into the koo.enay country. There
is a deal OF excitement over the new TOWNSHIP of
Mcleod. IL is proposed to move the present
town two or three miles nearer to the noun.
