General Mining Notes.
The Denver assayer expects to take in
Sl,O00,0OO in gold during this month.

Inc Denver assayer expects to take in
$1,000,0OO in gold during this month.
Not to be outdone in gold discoveries,
Chicago now announces gold quartz
"visibly rich' in the big drainage canal
now being dug from that city.
At Frisco, Utah, it is thought that the
work OF rebuilding the Horn Silver hoist
ing works and concentrating mill, which
were destroyed by fire last spring, will
be completed about the Goth inst.
Colorado comes to the front with a new
gold field of promising richness and ex-
tent. Evidently the idle silver miners
are finding some compensation for the
collapse of their former industry under
Cleveland legislation.
The Denver Record wants the general
government to offer $25O,O0O reward to
the inventor of cheap, successful pro-
cess that will enable owners of very low
grade ores to handle and treat them at a.
profit. 1t might do, and often does do, a
great deal less practicable work.
The Monitor mine, under the manage
AAASAAo oA oAPe. AuOA, Is ouDWluH up DeGLef
every day, says the Virginia City Madi-
sonian. They are shipping two carloads
of ore per week that will yield from $3.50
to 5000 per ton. The ore extracted is
only the result of regular development
work-no stopping as yet.
The Butte Inter Mountain recalls the
fact that the Anaconda mine was sold to
DAILY & Haggin in June, 1881, for 100000
by the Hickey Bros, and was considered
a doubtful proposition then. In Septem-
ber of 1881 the St. Lawrence, an adjoin-
ing property, was sold for $162,5O0.
These two properties, which q little over
ten years ago sold for less than 100000,
are now considered second only in amount
OF ore produced and value to any in the
world.
Some three weeks since new lead
was struck in the old Penobscot mine.
AT first but little was thought Of the dis
covery and it was generally conceded to
be only spur from the main vein. Sub
sequent development, however, discloses
the fact that it is a true fssure vein,
hitherto unknown, which at this writing
shows face six feet in width of ore that
assays from $40 to $500. This find is
something of a puzzle to mining men in
the Vestal district who thought they
knew the location and direction of every
lead in the district.-Marysville Noun
taineer.

Big Copper Strike.

fs4 1t is reported III sufeat Falls that Chas.
Gibson, who has been working prospect
in the Sweet Grass Hills, at East Butte,
has made rich find Of copper glance or
peacock copper ore. After driving tun-
mel in 11O feet they crosscut large body
OF this rich ore. They were ten feet into
the vein at last accounts and had not
reached the other wall. It is claimed
that the ore is of the same character as a
pocket struck in the Brown-Eyed Queen
some time ago and which ran away up in
both silver and copper. The find was
made about seventy feet from the surface.

The Anaconda's New Refinery,

An entirely new refinery building is
now being erected midway between the
upper and lower works. 1t is in charge
of French metallurgist who, it is said,
has secret method for refining copper
by electricity. He has about 200 men
working under him who are at present
erecting buildings and installing the cop
per plates and necessary machinery. The
refinery occupies great deal of ground
and will be a big concern when com
pleted. The Tuttle foundry has large
roster of men at work manufacturing
machinery for use in the refnery.-Ana-
conda Recorder.

THE COREAN TUSSLE
PROGRESS OF THE WAR BETWEEN
CHINA AND JAPAN.

Latest Authentic Reports Indicate That
China is Getting Much the Worst of 1t.
Strict Press Censorship Established.
The Chinese Marching on Corea.
VICTORIA, B. G., Aug. 1.-THE steamer
Empress of Japan arrived this morning
from the Orient, having left Yokohama
August 5. War was formally declared
August 3, the proclamation being re-
ceived with every token of rejoicing
throughout Japan, offers of men and
means coming from all corners of the
empire. Owing to the enactment of new
press regulations on August list the Japa-
nese papers gave only meagers details,
strongly colored for Japan readers, of
the war happenings.
The details Of the engagement which
resulted in the sinking of the British
steamer Kow Shing, furnished by the
Japanese, substantiate the contention
that the owners of the vessel should look
to China for reparation, asserting that
the catastrophe was brought about solely
by reason OF the Chinese troops aboard
refusing to allow Captain Galworthy to
carry out the instructions given him by
the japanese.
Japan insists that the Kow Shing sunk
on account of the piratical conduct of the
Chinese troops on board toward the Brit
ish captain.
The news is also given in the English
papers of Yokohama of numerous en-
gagements in which the Japanese ships
were victorious
The report that large force of Chinese
troops is being marched overland, and
that they are now almost on the borders
OF Corea, appears to be authenticated by
the latest advices.
An engagement occurred at Seikwan
on July 80. The Chinese were driven
back with heavy loss, and the Japanese
troops continued toward Asan.

CONTINGENT ON Capitalization
It All Depends Regarding the Deal for
GregsOn Springs.

It All Depends Regarding the Deal for
Gregson Springs.
A Salt Lake syndicate has taken a bond
on the Gregson Springs property for
$115,000. The bond extends to Decem-
Der and its taking up is contingent on
the location of the capital at Anaconda.
Ii the deal goes through a number of
fine brick structures will be erected for
the accommodation of invalids and tran
sient guests. The springs were located
by the Gregson brothers in 1868, who still
reside on the ground, and should the deal
go through, they will have enough to live
in comfort during the remainder of their
days. Milo French, who has had the
place leased for a number of years at
$4,000 per year, is interested in town
site adjoining the springs, which, if the
bond is raised by the Salt Lake men, will
allow him snug competence.

UNITED SONS OF AMERICA,
Free Coinage and Equal Protection OF
Labor and Capital the Watclword.


Labor and Capital the Watcllword.
A new secret organization, known as
the United Sons of America, has sprung
into life. Los Angeles is its birthplace
and the society is said to be absolutely
non-sectarian and wholly political; its
emblem is the stars and stripes with the
letters U. S. A. added Its main mission
is claimed to be to work for the restora-
tlon of silver to its rightful place as
money. The new order is said to be
growing very rapidly, taking in members
of all political parties. Besides it's advo-
cacy of free silver coinage, the society
also demands the enactment and en-
forcement of laws for the equal protec-
tion of labor and capital and for the
arbitration of all differences

session of the American Bimetallic
League. Speeches were made by sew
eral congressman and by delegates from
various states.
question as purely practical one and
urged that the political battles of the
future be fought on the proposition that
any change Of basis must be put in abey-
ance until the full restoration of silver is
accomplished.
Representative Coffeen, of Wyoming,
referred to the money question as the
overshadowing issue before the country
and advocated more money as the only
relief for general distress and depression.
Restoration of silver to all rights and
privileges it had at the mints before the
demonstration act Of 1878, he declared,
was the first step to be taken in all money
reforms.
= Mr.. Bryan, of Nebraska, also made a
short speech, advocating unity of action
among bimetallists. A declaration was
adopted recounting the repeal of the sill
yer purchasing law and establishment of
the single gold standard, which has been
followed by steadily increasing depres-
sion; that gold has steadily increased in
value, industries are everywhere par
alyzed, labor is unsteady and precarious,
business unimproved and debtors bank
rupt. 1t is asserted that there is no hope
OF relief until the double standard of Is
to is restored, and the money question
is the supreme issue before the country.
Voters are urged to make this issue para
mount to all other considerations on the
election OF state legislatures, congress
men and president.
1t is recommended that convention
be held at some central point in both the
mining and agricultural states to perfect
organization to work for this end, and
that committee of five be appointed to
carry out the plan.
a. the alteiHoOn session speeches were
made by Senator Jones on bimetallism in
the United States; Congressman Warner
on the consequence of the Legislation Of
1898; and by Representative Marsh,
clerk OF the commission, who was de-
tailed by the commissioners to make an
examination in New York City The in
qulry has been completed and Mr. Marsh
has returned to Washington and submit
ted his report to the commissioners, and
the matter has been since discussed at
the committees sessions.
Colonel William r. Morrison, the chair
man OF the commission, said today that
