Pioneer: This camp is attracting
more attention every day, especially
mining spectators, who, to a certain
extent, own stock in the famous Sewer
mine, but Manager Charles hammers
dorf owns the controlling interest in
the company.
The Golden Star Mining and Milling
company, better known as the Grass
hopper group. is controlled by Salt
Lake capitalists.
1t is rumored that the Silver King.
of which ]. B. Darger is manager, is
about TO be transferred TO Salt Lake
goldbugs for a handsome figure, but
how much we did not learn: also the
Ora Granda group of six claims join
ing onto the Golden Star on the south,
and it is also controlled by Salt Lake
capitalists. H. B. Windsor. accom-
panied by F. A. Virtue a large share
holder, were down this fall TO see about
the working of their property. They
have done over $1,000 of improvements
by erecting a blacksmith shop 12x14
and a dwelling for miners 14x1S, and
have let a contract to w. c. Dodge to
drive a tunnel in toward the vein 100
feet and which is about completed. and
no doubt exists. but that MIR Wilma
dor will keep the property going
ahead.
The Sewer mine has two miners driv-
ing a tunnel going south on a large
vein of rich ore. which is in about 600
feet and is very rich in gold, showing
free gold to the naked eye. Manager
Lammersdorf intends to keep working
the Sewer mine all winter and expects
TO show up a bonanza before the year
80 has elapsed. The Annie Laurie
group is doing development work near
the quartz mill to tan the Senator
Stewart vein, which carries free mill
ing gold ore, and as it is so near to the
quartz mill, it viii cost but a trifie TO
put their ore through the mill. Hans
Wilson has charge of the mine and is
doing some pretty satisfactory work.
The company viii not run the mill un-
til next spring. They are at present
applying for patent on group of
nine claims.
There is other development work go
ing on in our district.
W. G. Dodge has almost completed
his contract on the Ora Granda, and
has been getting in about 500 worth
of supplies TO his Golden Eagle proper
ty. so that he can work the balance of
the winter without being troubled in
getting his supplies. Mr. Dodge has a
very fair prospect. His group contains
four claims. II is a little west of the
Sewer and seems to be on the same
mineral belt There has been $1,000
work done and Mr.. Dodge says he will
do that much more in '97.

FOUR THOUSAND MEN.
RESIDENTS OF DENVER SAY
THEY ARE STARVING.
Don't Ask For Charity, But Want
Work-Deeds of Violence Are Not
at ALI Improbable.

Denver, Dec. 20.-Four thousand men,
who, by their resolutions. their state
ments and their actions, acclaimed
that they were out of work, starving
or on the verge of starvation, met in
the Coliseum hall this afternoon and
listened to a number of redhot
speeches against the members of the
city council, clamoring for work. The
meeting was held in the Coliseum hall,
in response TO a call. The speakers
were Rev. Thomas Uzzell and Rev.
Myron w. Reed, the gentlemen who
have always been considered the
friends of the oppressed and needy.
The former suggested as the quickest
way to bring about a change for the
better was to take out half a dozen
members of the city council and bury
them in the bed of Cherry creek, as a
warning to their successors that the
condition of the workingmen should
not be so cruelty overlooked and slight
ed in order that the politicians could
fatten their own purses at the expense
of the many The resolutions passed
called for the construction of city wa
ter works, street paving, viaducts,
etc, anything to keep the unemployed
busy, that the mouths of the hungry
might be fed, instead of paying out the
money in interest to bankers.
Rev. Mr.. Reed intimated that vio-
lence might be used by reminding his
hearers that under the constitution
they have yet left to them the privilege
of carrying arms, stating that I'VE MAJ
yet be called upon to exercise that
Drerogative.''
Previous to the meeting there was
parade The marchers carried banners,
some of the inscriptions being:
Cherries Christmas for the Work
ingman.'
We Want Work, Not Charity"
Work, Instead of the Poorhouse.'
There were others on the same lines.

hundred and ninety delegates from all parts
of the United States and Canada were pres

ternational Typographical Union was called
to order to-day by President William B.
Prescott. Rev. e. Darlington, of Pueblo,
delivered an address which aroused great
enthusiasm. In his biennial address Presi-
dent Prescott said that in spite Of adverse
conditions during the past five years the
union was stronger to-day numerically and
financially than ever before in it's history.
Committees were appointed to arrange
the work in convention, and delegates spent
the afternoon visiting points of interest in
the vicinity. The most important commit
tee to report is the one appointed to inves-
tigGte the condition of the Childs-Drexel
institute and to make suggestions as to the
course to be pursued for the relief and care

GREATER THAN BRYAN,S.
Big Demonstration at ElIxhart I'm Hon
of the Veterans.

Special to the indianapolis Journal.
ELkHART, Ind, Oct. 12.-The greatest
political rally ever held in northern In
diana was the one here tonight in recog-
milton of the presence of the Union veter-
ans. Delegations came from distance Of
seventy-five miles and from all directions.
Goshen sent 1900 Warsaw 800, South Bend
1000, Mishawaka GOO, and many other places
had delegations in proportion to their size
a procession that extended the entire
length of Main and Second streets and
the wings of which rested on lateral
streets, paraded for hour and half
The crowd would be difficult to estimate
but it ran away up into the thousands and
surpassed by many thousands the crowd
that participated in the Bryan demonstra-
ton when the Popocratic candidate was
here recently. Nearly every business house
in the city was decorated and hundreds of
residences on the line of march were decked
out in flags, portraits of Major Mckinley,
novel devices, and some We're Illuminated
by electricity. One particular feature was
an electrical display on the streets at
various points, specially arranged by the
committee having the demonstration in
charge.
The meeting as held in the rink, where
immense crowd gathered and listened to
addresses by all the veterans, each of
whom was vigorously applauded General
Morden, of Massa chusetts, made the hit of
the evening in crisp, facetious address,
in which he scored 'Coin' Harvey unmerci-
fully for remarks he had made about the
veterans at Clinton, Ia He called Har-
vey a miserable skunk, and when he re-
ferred to the latter's remarks about the
veteran company the five hundred ex-sol-
diars who occupied the front seats supple
mented his statements with shouts of ap-
proval of the speaker and boots of disap>
probation of Harvey. Corporal Tanner also
made a decided hit. The appeal of General
Sickles to old-line Democrats o follow his
example and work and vote for Mckinley
called forth a storm of enthusiasm from
Democrats and Republicans alike.
A noticeable feature of the occasion was
the Workingmen's Club in the procession,
which contained hundreds Of men VINO have
heretofore trained With the De rocrats. bug
who say they have had enough of the Will
son bill and want sound money. Nearly ev-
cry prominent Democratic business man IS
out for Mckinley, and the beautiful deco
ration of their places OF business and resi-
dences left no doubt as to where they
stand.

KILLED WHILE SCUFFLING.
Details of the Shooting of Count Won
BaIlestrem by His Friend.

SAN FRANCISCO. Oct 12-Charles Abi-
ger. who killed Count Won BalIestrern at
Monterey. last night, is of a good German
family. He says he was preparing to go
hunting just at dusk, and had a playful
struggle with his frined for the guns. The
weapon was discharged, and a load Of
birdshot entered Won Ballestrem's breast
killing him instantly. The dead mans fun
name was Count Wolfgang Won Ballestrem
and he came of a prominent German fam
lily. He served In the German army. and
came to the Pacific coast about ten years
ago. He spent his money lavishly, and it
was soon gone. For time he led a pre-
carlouS existence, working as a. house
painter and bootback. and finally enIisting
in the United States army, where he served
as private. Lately he said he had become
reconciled with his family. and that he was
receiving money from Germany. He went
to Monterey a few months ago and lived
with his friend Abiger. The latter's story
OF the shooting is believed by the police
but there are few discrepancies in IT, He
says the shooting occurred at sundown
while neighbors say they heard the shot
after O'Clock. Won Bellestrem's clothing
was not powder burned. as it would have

AT MICHIGAN CITY.
The Generals Welcomed by Many
Sound-MOney Democrats.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal
MICHIGAN CITY, Ind, Oct Il. - The
Generals train arrived at Michigan City
at II: :45 a. m. The war veterans were
met by an enthusiastic crowd of voters at
the Haskell e. Barker car works, number
ing at least 1900, who were attentive listen
ers to what the Generals had to say. Dur
ing their short speeches they were
often interrupted by applause. Some
thusiastic voter asked General SicFles who
he intended to vote for. His answer was,
For Major Mckinley" This brought
forth rounds of applause. General Sickles
was introduced by General Alger who
acted as chairman, and he made the prin-
cipal address. Although he had always
been a Democrat, he was now performing
a patriotic duty in upholding the cause of
Mckinley and sound money, and he ap
peaIed to those soldiers and laboring men
who had heretofore held the same views as
himself to throw aside party considerations
and vote for sound money and the Nations
honor. Frequent applause and ringing
cheers greeted his speech. Corporal Tanner
next spoke, and his remarks We're also
received with applause. General Howard's
voice was in poor form and his words did
not reach nearly to the limits of the crowd.
He spoke principally to the old soldiers,
and at the conclusion of his speech called
for a round of cheers for Republican vic
tory. Col. I. N. Walker, of Indianapolis.

diers before the train departed. 1t left for
