IMPORTANT ENTERPRIsE.
Placer Mining By Electricity or
Salmon River.

The Columbian Fine Gold Saving
company, of Seattle. are building boats
at the mouth of White Bird creek pre-
pairing to float some heavy machinery
down Salmon river to the old Shorty
bar, where extensive mining operations
will be carried on this summer
The work proposed is the installation
of electric pumping machinery, the
power to be obtained from a small
stream brought on to Pelton wheels
under 900 foot hydraulic pressure.
The works will be run day and night;
arc lamps run by the dynamo will fur
nish light.
j. C. Moore is superintendent of the
company. He proposes to work various
enterprises along Salmon river with the
same methods. The plant to be
brought here is one that was in or
GRAFTON at Sans Poll, Wash, on the Co
lurnbia river. The Salmon affords
much larger returns for such applian-
ces, as the gold is heavier and the gra-
vel richer in gold.-Grangevill Free

afternoon. just before his departure for
Missouri. informed a Tribune reporter
that the Denver & Gulf road was max
ing preparations for heavy shipments
of cattle from Texas, New Mexico. old
Mexico and Arizona to northern Wy
oming. which will be made this spring.
He said that there was already over

to say that the shipments this year
would be greatly in excess of any pre-
vious year.-Cheyenne Tribune.

best event of the kind ever held.
The following have entered for the

Trinity Hall. Magellan, Oxford.

For the diamond SOULS the following
entries have been received among
others: Dr. w. H Mcdowell of the

There is much disappointment. that

the officials of the Henley regatta, but
it is the sentiment of boating men gen.

WASHINGTON, April 1.-The imni-
grafton officials are somewhat disturb
ed at the present enormous increase in
immigration. During February the
number of arrivals at New York aggre-
gated 11,022. an increase of about So
per cent. over the arrivals during Feb
ruary, 1895.
Dr. Senner, the immigration commits
sioner at New York, in letter re-

red and detained immigrants kept at
the Ellis Island station last Monday
night, which taxed the accommodations
to the utmost. The class now coming to
this country is said 70 be altogether
undesirable even while entitled to ad-
mission under strict construction of
the immigrant laws. 1t is said at the
department that If the immigration
bureau were fully equipped with the
powers asked for in the report of the
immigration committee to the secretary
of the treasury and now before con-
gress, it would feel equal to the pres

unlikely additional legislation ON the

CAUGHT A PRIZE.
Impression the New York Police Are
Now Laboring Under.

NEW YORK, April Emmanuel Min
ger was arrested tonight and confined
in Ludlow street jail in default of $780,
600 bail. The secret service agents Of
the federal government believe they
have a counterfeiter who has baffied
all their efforts for seventeen years.
1t was in 1875 that the government de-
tectives first began a hunt for a PEN
man who could with simple pen. ink
and paper so successfully initiate a
costly engraved United States green
back or bank note that it defied detec-
ton by an expert. Agent George Bag
&c, of the secret service, is of the opin-
ion that Ninger is the man they have
been looking for so long.
Mr.. Bagge claims that Ninger has
made confession and has surrendered
the pens, ink and paper which he used
in making the counterfeit bills.
Ringer has lived on a small farm
near Flagtown. N. j., for years.
