THOUGHT TO BE DROWNED.
A Victoria Couple Take a Sail and
Do Not Return,

VICTORIA, B. g., July 1.-THE convic-
tIon has become general that Arthur
Turner, the only son Of Hon. j. ii. Turner,

Mrs. Lockland P. Jameson, neighbor

gether on Thursday, have been drowned in
the Straits of Fuca. They met on the

Thursday, and the day being delightful
decided going for row, not noticing that
the tide was running strong and the wind
was full from the sea. Their boat, 16-
foot dingy, was not suited for rough water
und the supposition is that night coming
on the boat was overturned in the straits
OF Gulf of Georgia.
The fact of their having gone boating not
developing till this morning, scandal
originated over the disappearance of the
couple, and even their friends concluded
il was an elopement. Mrs. Jameson is a
6ahdsoms woman of % and has been mar
ried eight years. She became aeon ainted
with Turner in society and the families
have been well acquainted since, living in
the same Deighborhood.
News reached here late this evening that
the missing young Turner has turned up
in San Francisco.
LATER-Late this evening the steamer
from Roche H4rbor brought back the
dingy and reported that the young man
and woman Turner and the truant wife)
landed from it at Roche Harbor on the
American side at daybreak Friday morn
ing. staying at the hote until the following G
morning, and then leaving for Port Town
send, whence it is supposed they go to
California. Jameson, the husband. who
few hours before was sincerely mourn
ing his wife and her companion, is how
determined to avenge the insult and will
leave on the mornings boat after them.
When he overtakes Turner, unless the
latter is in the meantime arrested. he will
undoubtedly shoot him.

From tho Prospectof.
Col. Mike Gray received a letter
from his son, John, today dated RuclS-

particulars Of a visit paid to one ol

ions.
The raid occurred before daylight at
Mulberry The dogs barked and made
a great noise but it was cloudy aud
so dark that nothing could De seen Of
the marauders. They succeeded in
getting two horses from the band and
made an unsuccessful attempt to get
the saddle horse which Mr.. Gray had
plekcted. The animal broke the
picket rope and gave them the slip.
As soon as daylight came hurried
mount was made and the trail follow
ed until it was lost in the rocks. The
Indians went through Prices canyon.
They left one horse behind them be-
longing to Fred Ruch's brand, whose
range is in the San Simon valley near
Bowie. The horse wore rawhide shoes
and had been ridden nearly to death.
The Indians wore moccasinsa and there
was no doubt of there having been
five Of them. 1t is altogether likely
they are bound for tho Sierra Madre
mountains in Sonora. There is moth
ing to hinder their progress as Lieut..
Wallace and command are at Bowie

From parties who are familiar with
the country on the San Simon side of

CLEANED some additional. information
aegardlng the recent raid Of Kid and
his four followers. 1t appears that
the troops under Lieut. Wallace had
no sooner left their camp to go to
Fort Bowie than the Indians who had
evidently been camping near them
pulled up stakes and followed them.
camp Iflce canyon is dDouJ 80 miles
from Fort Bowie and these Indians
are withoutd doubt within the Bowie re-
seryation at the present time. When
the troops get through their pay fro

ten hours behind them on the back
track. Instead of going south as
started yesterday they went north.
Those who are familiar with the
methods Of Apache tactics say that
they always keep close to the troops
that may be hunting them and watch
their movements each day from an
advantageous point.

THE N1NTsaOLD


From the san francisco Chronicle.
The position taken by the mint in
the past few weeks has been the sub
ject of much favorable comment in
financial circles. It's public insti-
tuition, and has been in one instance,
at lease, of direct benefit to the pub
lie.
The records of the mint show that
on Tuesday the sum of 81, 10000 had
been paid out, and yet from June 22nd
to August 1st the mint was closed.
During this period, however, the
mint advanced the sum named on ac-
count Of fine gold deposits. Had the
mint not done so the banks would
have been obliged to do so, and would
thus have had their stock of coin re-
duced by just so much. The mint,
however, handed out the new gold
coins, and they have been sent, out
aorth and south all over the coast and
into the banks of this city.
The gold represents the refined
metal from the ore sent down to this
city from the various mines on the
coast during the interval of time
named. This speaks we'll for the CON
ditlou of the country, and should be
the meansof encouraging not alone
the miners, but business men gene
rally.
Ifthe business were properly encour
aged it is.safe to say the output of the
mines could without great dlnlculty
be raised to $1,000, 900 month. Now
the average is abont 81, ,25O,OOO
month. The output this year is fully
up to last, and is in fact, a trifle in ex
cess.
Superintendent Daggett says he
earnestly desires to do all he can to
facilitate business and to relieve the
public as much as possible in the pres
ent financial strlngency.
w. II. Harries, manager of the
EIongkong and Shanghai Bank in this
city, has just received from the
Shanghai Banking Corporation $780,
0OO in gold bullion, containing also
about s25, 900 in silver. This has all
been sent to the mint, 1t is the first
importation of Chinese gold in the
history of the local mint, and signal
ICES the opening ue of a fresh source
of gold from Chinese mines.

In accordance with such RESOLUTION
all the miners and all the people OF
great southwest, particularly of Colo.
rado, Texas, Arizona and New Mexi-
co, are requested to assemble at AL.
buquerQue, New Mexico, on the 10th
and 10Th days of September, 1893. A
full attendance is very desirable. II
congress shall then have taken action
favorable to silver, a joHiacatlon will
be in order If congress shall then be
still deliherating, the voice of the
people, demanding protection from
the avarice of the monied classes
should be emphatically heard If sill
yer should be defeated in this con-
gress, then the fight will only be be-
gun-and it is our duty and privilege
toassemble and make the power and
determination of the southwest felt.
If, as the Bill Of Rights declares, "all
political power is vested in and be-
longs to the people," and if we are
worthy citizens Of a country whose
whole structure is built upon that
sentence as the foundation stone
then the people must be vlgllant and
active, and no self-sacrillce should be
so great as to deter them.
Moreover, these gatherings are cd.
ucational We must meet and ex
change ideas, and study and learn, il
order to know the impreguable ma.
ture Of our position to the end that,
in the probable coming "battle of the
standards" we may fight "freely, as
men fight for the right"
A failure to attend will be taken as
an evidence of ignorance, or indiGer-
ence, or both, and will injure our
cause. II. B. FERGUssoN.
