DONNELLY GROWS FUNNY,
And Slashes Right and Left in His
AnOka Speech.

Special to the Globe.
ANoKA, Mimi, Oct. 31.-An immense
crowd filled the city hall this evening
to listen to the honeyed eloquence of Ig-
natius Donnelly, which riveted their
attention for more than two hours, and
wound up with an old-fashioned Meth
odist collection at the door for the cap-
paign fund. His stock in trade was
funny stories and attacks against
watered stock of the railroads, with Jim
Hill and Bill Washburn as figureheads,
or. as DonnellY expressed it. NELSON
didn't dare speak against the railroads,
for the colossal shadow of Washburn
loomed up in the background with the
club on his shoulder staring at him."
Charlie Pillsbury got roasting, too.
He used an Illustration of the shippers
in the cheese; the boarder told the
landIady if the inhabitants would all
pull together they would walk off with
the cheese and the label, too. Now, he
said, if you Republicans and Democrats
will stop quarreling and come into the
Peoples party, all things will be
righted. The wretched old Pioneer
Press had to take it in the neck. too, for
Donnelly slashed right and left. A. G.
Parsons, of Duluth, also made appropri-
ate remarks. and the meeting was pre-
sided over by John Waddinghamstodz.

UDAwsOS, Mimi, Oct. 31.-The wild
and frenzied actions OF Knute Nelson at
Elbow Lake created no surprise here,
from the fact that Nelson behaved in
the same way when here some time ago.
At that visit he met John Mcguire on
the street. Mr.. Mcguire is the repre-
sentative from this courtyard is highly
respected wherever known. Nelson had
few words with him, then suddenly
flew into a tremendous passion, using
the most vulgar. pr0fane and blasphem

a crowd to the scene. 1t was only the
GOODNESS and presence of mind of Ma
guire that prevented personal encouu-

cEuR D,ALENE SHUT DOWN.

The Railroads Refuse to Make Concessions
to the Mine Owners.
There seems to be no question but that on
January Is the mines in the Occur d'Alene
country will shut down. January ! was
originally the date fixed by the mine
owners to stop shipping ore unless the rail
roads reduced the rates on ore. II was in
timated that possibly the railroads might
listen to a compromise, if the time was ex-
tended. So the miners changed the date to
January Is. But the railroads refuse to
mako any concession. as the following let
ter from General Traffic Manager z. 5.
Mellen, of the Union Pacific. shows. The
letter ID dated December %, and IS adj
dressed to the Cour d'Alene Mine owners
association. 1t is as follows:
am in receipt of your favor of the 9th.
to which reply has been delayed. owing to q
desire on our part for reliable information
as to the conditions surrounding the dlspo-
sitioa of the output of your camp.
From such information as we have been
able to obtain, there appears to be no good
Yeason why any reduction should be made
in our freight rates.
Our information is to the effect that the
product of your camp is contracted at the
present time for the coming year, and on q
basis of the rates now IN effect, and that
your product both can and will move or

Such being the case. we feel it is better tc
submit to the temporary loss occasioned by
your shut down rather than unnecessaril

RICH STRIKE IN The LEO.
The Old Major Budd May Yet Prove
4 Big Bonanza to Its
Owners
Railroads Refuse to Make Any
Concessions to Occur d'Alene
Mine Owners.
Something About the Grouse Mountain
Country in M%issoala c~oanty-Thoi
SAltcso District.

According to the mont recent reports
from the Leo, formerly the Major Budd,
the owners Of that property are to be oon-
graduated. Several months & q force OF
men was put to work to develop the mine,
and on Saturday a good body OF ore was
struck. A tunnel has been run on the Leo
\ distance of 1890 feet. At that point .
c~rossout has been started north. 1t has
always been the idea that this tunnel was
on the main vein OF tho mine. Recently,
however. examination has convinced some
of the owners that the main vein Is farther
north, and to tap this is tho object in run
ming the crosscut. 1t is thought the vein
will be struck after running 100 feet. The
strike reported. however. was made in an
upraise in the tunnel at a point 60O feet
from its mouth. Five samples OF ore were
assayed, with the following results: First
sample, $3.50; second, $270; third, $685.;
fourth, SAL; fifth, $s1. The extent OF the
ore body has not been fully determined.
The principal owners in this mine resident
in Helena are Ed. I. Zimmerman and 5.
Schwab. Other large holders reside IN st.
Louis. Adolph Zimmerman is the man
aper at the mine and all the assays are
made by him. After many ups and downs
in management and ownership the old
Major Budd now seems so be in q fair way
to Justify the faith Of those who have ex-
pended their monst in developing it.
