Friends of Hunter and Blackburn Fixur-
81 Ing for Their Men.

Cincinnati, Jan 19.-The Commercial
Gazette special from Frankfort, KY,
says: The city is filling up tonight
with friends OF Blackburn and Hunter.
Although the leaders of both parties
had agreed there should be no ballotine
for senator until Feb. 4, or until after
the successor of Wilson had qualified,
yet the nominees OF the caucusses seem
TO be so suspicious of each other they
are marshaling their forces here for
balloting In both houses separately on
Tuesday, and friends of Hunter are
claiming he will be declared elected
Wednesday. Some republican senators
insist they will Join the democrats on
postponing the election until after Will
sons successor arrives. Some of Hun
ter's most ardent supporters think the
scheme to postpone the election of a
senator was a trick in the interest of
Bradley. or Verkes, and that they shall
therefore not abide by it. In addition
to the opposition from those who want
to stand by the compromise agreement.
Populist Poor has become estranged
from Hunter, but says he will never
go to Blackburn, so 1t does not seem
possible for any election of senator to
occur this week. The deadlock between
Hunter and Blackburn, with their
fighting friends on the ground. is ex-
pected TO make trouble. Both sides are
very determined and suspicious.

What DIR. Tenney. of cincinnati Saw on a
Visit to Montana
roorofa1 Ca


Visit to Montana
From the Cincinnati Commercial Ga
zette.
The mineral wealth of the Rocky
mountains is not realized by those who
have never visited the great gold, sill
yer and copper mines of our Western
states" said DR.. w. A. r. Tenney TO a
reporter; 'iand few realize the enor-
nous amount of money that is pro-
duced each year from the mines. /
have Just returned from trip to Mon
tana, and / must confess that II was
a revelation to me. Montana's mines
turned out during the past year pro-
ducts amounting to something like
$40, 900, 0OO In Butte City the pay roll
of the mining industry alone Is mill
ion dollars a month. The output OF
gold is increasing rapidly, being near
ly double as great this year as any
previous one There is considerable
activity among the prospectors, and
new camps are being discovered ana
many rich strikes made.
II went out for the express purpose
of investigating a newly discovered
gold mine-a strike as they call new
discoveries of rich ore-which j wished
to examine personally. with a view or
securing an interest in case l found II
as good as represented. Neither the
sale. Myself and a few others are put
ting in enough money to erect large
stamp mill, to extract the gold from
the ore, for which we get an interest
in the property. The United States In
weston, whose mining expert made a
thorough Investigation of the property
says, in speaking of this mine:
1.-The Gold Coin mine comprises
three full government claims consti-
tuting an area $500 feet long by 900
feet wide The title to the property is
perfect in the company and IL is free
from incumbrance. The trend of the
property follows a course of the noun
tain and covers the main vein of ore,
which cuts into the mountain almost
perpendlcularly. The vein Is well
marked, being from 16 to 30 feet be-
tween walls. The vein matter is found
TO be a uniformly rich gold-bearing
ore. and Is of the same oXydized char
acter which prevails in the district
Careful and thorough tests have been
made of the ore along the entire length
of the property and at various depths
The tests show a valuation of $3.50 per
ton at the surface. and from $500 to
SIS per ton at % feet. and at greater
depth the ore is found TO grow richer.
When IL is borne i'm mind that stamp
mills can operate profitably on ores
which run as low as 50 per ton, which
are actually free milling, II gives a
better idea of the profits to be derived
from a mill operating on ore of the
grade which the Gold Coin mine pro
duces.'
Further development work has
shown a body of ore 1000 feet long. as
wide as so feet between walls in places
and cleaving the mountain from sum-
init to base, reaching down to un-
known DEPTHS. Ore from several shafts
assays from $50 TO S75 ton at 70 fee I,
and there is something like a quarter
of a million dollars in sight. blocked
out by cuts and shafts I think we
have a wonderful property"

And Sill Another.

N. B. Curtis was held up by highway
men at the corner of Wyoming and
Platinum streets, at 9:45 o'clock last
night, and robbed of a solid gold Hamp-
den movement watch worth SlS5, a
plain gold ring and sI16.50 in cash. $40
OF which was in gold. There were
three of the robbers and all were
masked and they all displayed big
guns While two of them covered him
with their revolvers the third man
went through his pockets, and he took
his time and made a careful and thor
ough search. Curtis is a miner and
boards at the Hale house. He called
on some friends in the southern part OF
the city last evening and was on his
way home when he was intercepted by
the footpads. The corner where the
robbery took place is a dark and un-
frequented one, and Mr.. Curtis was UNI
able to give a very good description of
the thieves.

WHO KILLED CRONIN
BE Isn't Dead at All, Only a Little
Scalp Wound.
HIS INTENTION WAS GOOD
After Firing an Ineffective Shot at
His wife. the Intoxicated indi-
vidual Turned the Gun Loose
on His Own Head.

John Henry Cronin, who runs a sa-
loon in the room formerly occupied by
the postoffice in Upper Main street,
fired a shot at his wife and then
attempted to shoot himself through the
head at his home i'm East Woolman
street about 6 o'clock yesterday morn
ing. He proved himself to be a very
poor marksman. however. and the only
damage that he did was TO burn some
of the hair off the right side OF his
head and inflict a scalp wound on his
right temple. Cronin started out last
night to effect a reduction in the Visi-
BILE supply of whiskey, but the stock of
red liquor in Butte is 50 large that he
accumulated a goodsized Jag" before
making much of an impression on IL.
About o'clock in the morning his wife
started out to hunt for him, and Officers
Anderson and Parlin. who were at the
corner of Main and Broadway. were
asked If they had seen him. She be-
lieved him TO be In one of the gambling
houses, and when the policemen in
formed her that they had not seen him
she sat down on a doorstep and an
nounced her intention of remaining
there until he put in an appearance.
The officers finally persuaded her TO
go home, home, however, and as she
was walking up Main street she en-
countered her husband and they pro-
ed home together. He was greatly un-
der the influence 90 liquor, and ii is
supposed that trouble followed their
arrival at their domicile.
At few minutes after o'clock Gro
min secured his revolver and fired
shot at his wife. Fortunately. how
ever. his aim was poor. and Mrs. Gro
min ran screaming from the house un-
injured He then turned the weapon
on himself, and evidently placed II
against his head just above the right
ear. His hand was again unsteady,
however, and instead of going straight
in, the bullet plowed along under the
skin for about two inches and came out
just above the temple. officer Hungate,
who was on the Park street beat, was
informed of the shooting by couple of
greatly excited boys. who asked him to
send for a doctor. He telephoned to
Murray & Freund's hospital, and DR..
Walker answered the call
Cronin refused to allow him to dress
the wound or go to the hospital, and
the Doctors stay at the house was very
brief and unsatisfactory. He saw that
the hair had been badly burned where
the bullet entered. but was unable to
ascertain whether or not the skull had
been fractured. 1t is not believed, how
ever, that the injury is seriuos.

ANOTHER HOLD-UP.

Frank Anderson Relieved of sic In the
Old Diggings Near the G. y. Depot.
Frank Anderson had an experience
with footpads that cost him about slo
yesterday morning. Mr.. Anderson lives
in South Butte, and works at the Butte
& Boston smelter. and he was on MS
way home from work about $3.50 o'clock
when he was held up by a couple Of
highwaymen in the old placer diggings
near the Great Northern depot and re-
lieved of all of his loose change. Be
fore starting for home Anderson placed
$40 in his shoe and the thieves over
looked that. officers Gillette and Smell
secured the surrounding country, but
were unable to find any trace of the
robbers.
