The sanguine predictions of Senator
Harris and some other Democratic lead
ers that the tariff bill would be passed
by June is not likely to be realized.
Indeed Senator Harris himself has given
up any such expectation. If it passes by
July it will get through sooner than
there is any good reason TO expect. Very
likely the revelations of the sugar inves-
LEGATION may be of such a character
that some of the Democrats will be only
too glad to abandon it altogether.

The valued policy law doesn't seem to
have worked very badly in New Hamp-
shire if the statistics put out by ssthe in
surance commissioner are reliable. In
1886, before this law was passed, the
ratio of losses to premiums received
averaged 65.4 per cent. during the eight
years since the ratio has been only All
per cent. Risks increased $216. 936, 400 in
the second period over the first, premi-
ums received increased 50, 555, 135, while
losses paid increased only s59,s24.
Pro badly the good showing is due large
ly to the greater care in insuring proper
ty not to the risks in excess of the value
of the property.

prosecuting attorney has been footing
the bills. He is not able to do it much
longer, and unless money is subscribed
the investigation must soon stop. It
has gone far enough to reveal good
deal of corruption, and there is much
more in sight if the inquiry can be con-
tinued. Of curse Tammany Hall will
bring all it's influence, which is great,
to bear to stop the investigation and the
police department itself can bring much
power to bear in this direction. 1t does
seem, however, as if there ought to be
enough people in the metropolis DESTROYS
of exposing and Furnishing corruption
and dishonesty to furnish the small sum
necessary to continue the inquiry. If
there are not it will be very strong evil
dence that the decent people of New

they really deserve no better one than

Voice From Confederate Culch.


Jack Norris got in this week from
Confederate gulch in the Diamond
range. where he has .latelu-- haan
working his gold properties. He
brought with him about 80 pounds
of gold quartz, showing the charac-
ter of his discoveries, the native gold
appearing thick upon the rock. Ase
says of this rock have gone high, a
straight average of three veins show
ing $40 ton The owner will put
up and operate an arasta in the com
ing spring.
Mr. Norris has had many years ex-
perience at gold prospecting. He
first assembled the Missouri in '67,
and has worked in almost every
camp in Montana. He feels quite
encouraged over his claims at Con
federate, and we trust he may see
all his hopes appear.

UNDER A LARGE STONE.
Sad and Sudden Death of a Leaser
In One Of the Butte Mines.

w Il. Boase was instantly killed
| by the fall of rock in the Rodda
shaft OF the Stevens mine at Butte.
| Friday afternoon, Samuel Stevens.
who was working with him, receiving
very serious injuries. The Stevens
mine is under lease to Thomas Rodda
K. J. Hawes and the dead man, who
have been working it through the
Rodda shaft, sunk year or two ago
a short distance west of the main
shaft. Hawes has not lately been
working in the mine but had Stevens
working in his place. Boase, Stop
ems and Rodda were working in the
tunnel as usual that day, and were
cleaning up in the south drift short
distance in from the 100 foot station.
About 3 o'clock Rodda quit and
went home and at the same time
Stevens wanted some new tools.
Stevens did not show up for supper
that evening and at 7 o'clock
Halves, with whom he was boarding,
became alarmed over his absence.
He went to w. J. Rodda's house be-
inu fearful that -snmethinr had han
pened.
Together they went to Tom Rod
da's house, but found that the boys
had not been there. w. j. then
went over tn the mine and proceeded
to make an investigation. He en-
tered the drift, where he found Stew
ems lying on his side with lighted
candle by him. A little farther on
was an immense rock under which
lay the unfortunate Boase. Stevens
was in partially insensible condi-
ton, but he managed to tell how it
happened. Some time between 4
and 5 o'clock, while he and Boase
were working close together, clean
ing up the drift, the immense rock,
weighing about 4 tons, slipped from
the hanging wall. Both saw it com
ing and tried to jump away, but
Boase was too near it and escape for
him was impossible. The rock crush
ed him down beneath it's weight.
Stevens was struck on the head by
several smaller stones brought down
by the big rock and was knocked
senseless. He did not regain con-
seriousness until about l5 minutes be-
fore the searching party reached him,
when he managed to crawl to a place
60 feet distant, where he found a
candle lighting which he lay still and
waited for help. He was carried to
the surface and removed to Tom
Rodda's house when medical aid was
summoned. After that the Rodda
brothers and Hawes returned to the
mine and went to work to get Boase's
body from under the rock which com
pletely covered it.
II is claimed that the accident is
due to Boase's own carelessness, al
though he has been considered very
careful miner.

OF his brother-in-law and lived there
ever since last spring. He was in the
habit Of driving to Van Buren, and
Fort Smith on Thursdays. Last
Thursday afternoon he left, telling
his wife he would be back that night.
He never came back and no news was
heard of him until this morning,
when he was found dead two miles

in.
The men who found him were DIR.

to town and notified Marshal Crump

Engine Attached to Pullman.
The boycott inaugurated against the Pullman
cars by the American Railway Union. and which
has been agitating the country for the past ten
days, made itself forcibly felt in Van Buren,
Thursday night.
Upon the arrival of the east bound Mo. Pacific
train at lao am. Friday, the fireman. Ferguson
Lathey, after signing up on the book at the
depot failed to show up when the time came for
starting In a few minutes he reappeared. but
refused to continue on the run. All attempts to
induce him to go on proved fruitless. and he left
tho yard and went home, leaving the train ON
the siding with the engineer in the cab. A call
was then sent out for extra lremen but of
the number that resp bonded not one was willing
to run the risk of taking ont the train Us they
considered 1t unsafe to do so. They were all
discharged.
Postal Inspector Houk, stationed at Fort Smith
had gotten wind of the proposed te-up Thurs.
day afternoon, and came over to see that the
mails were not obstructed. In conversation with
one of the men he remarked that they oughtnot
to obstruct traffic in that way. thus hindering
the transportation of the mails. He was promptly
informed that II he would have the company
cut off the Pullman they would furnish fifty fire.

No. 81, the west bound train, was held short
while at Russellville, finally being released. but
met the same fate as the east bound train on
reaching Van Buren.
The day trains which do not carry Pullman
cars, are running as usual. The passengers
stranded by the tie-up left on the day trains.
Traffic on the Frisco line had not been affect
ed by the boycott up to our going to press.
The men are well organized and quiet, and no
trouble is anticipated.
A meeting of the discharged employees was
held Thursday night. and 1t is the opinion here
that it was then decided to adopt the course
they did.
Judge Parker. District Attorney Read and
Marshal Crump. of the U. s. Court at Ft- Smith
arrived In Van Buren, at II a. m yesterday, and
had long consultation with the railroad men
and flremen. The consent of the fremen could
not be obtained to take the two delayed trains
here to their destinations up to the time of going
to press, Friday afternoon The haraling of the
Pullman cars is the only obstruction. There is
no disposition on the part OF TIE railroad men to
injure and interfere with railroad property or to
prevent trains from moving If competent fremen
could be procured. The engineers and conduct
ors are awaiting orders.
