SHERIDAN, wyo., Jan. 25.-(Special Tele-
| gram.)-A report just received from Bald
| Mountain, Wyo states that some valuable
claims owned by Sheridan parties have besn
| jumped by desperate characters. These
! claims have been held and the required as
/ sessment work done each year. Al armed
party left Sheridan last night for the gold
| camp and 1t is feared that trouble will re-
suit. The men who left here are determined
to protect their rights, and now that the

| their claims at all hazards. AS soon as the

Mention was made few days ago in The
Omaha Bee cf rich discoveries In the Big
Horn mountains near Sheridan. Further
discoveries warrant the assertion that the
Big Horn mountains will prove another Grip
pie Creek the coming season. In the last
few days new discoveries have been made
and mining properties have changed hands
to such an extent that parties are leaving
for the mountains, notwithstanding the snow
and the difficult travelling, and holes are be-
ing sunk and claims filed daily.

was fully explained a few days ago In these
columns, is proving very rich, and orders
have been placed in the east for more stamps.
This cement deposit at Bald mountain ex-
tends for six miles. and, being easily mined.
proves very profitable. There are now on
the ground some New York parties buying
claims. The most conservative business
men in Sheridan, who have never had the
mining fever, have left with pack outfits for
the mountains.
Owing to the scarcity of water at Bald
mountain, j. b. Menardi of Sheridan has
located site for mill five miles from the
camp, and where there is an abundance OF
water. His idea is to construct an electric
railway, power being furnished by the falls
Of Porcupine creek, which are 1875 feet high,
and bring the ore from the different mines
to the mill. This will involve eXpendi-
ture of $20O00O and already eastern capital
lists, who have been on the ground, are so
well satisfied with the project, that they are
ready to take hold of it and furnish the neces
sary capital required.
The cement referred to. Is not only found
at Bald Mountain. which is forty miles west
of Sheridan, but is found throughout the Big
Horn mountains. The McShanes Of Omaha
are putting in stamp mill on Kelly creek.
near Buffalo, and that there will be a rush
in the spring equal to the Cripple Creek
stampede is fully expected. 1t is safe in
predicting that with little money expended
in prospecting, discoveries will be made
which will place this section in line with
other rich gold producing fields.

in speaking at Birmingham tonight, said
regarding the Venezuelan matter that he
thought there had been minapprehension on
both sides Of the water. When Secretary
Olneys dispatch and President Cleveland S
message were delivered the feeling was re-
luctantly entertained in England that the
Americans must have some hostile sentiments
which England did not share and that the
United States was bent on picking a quarrel
with England. The idea seemed to prevail
in America that England was disposed to
impugn the Monroe doctrine-a doctrine to
which the people Of the United States rightly
attached much Importance, and 1t was also
believed In America that Great Britain was
disposed to deal in harsh and arbitrary
manner with Venezuela, but reflection had
brought about a more favorable understand
ing and America would regard with horror
