Mr.. j. X Clark, upon whose report the
Mayf1ower mine near Whitehall was pur-
chased for w. A. Clark, reports that the
development work now in progress at that
property is very satisfactory to the own
er. The lead has been stripped 60 feet,
says the Butte Inter Mountain eX-
posing the same character of rich ore

purchase, but will at least double the
investment, from present appearances.
Work on the tunnel is being rapidly
pushed and il ore is found below, the May
flower will prove a bonanza. Speaking
of the camp the Whitehall Zephyr says:
'All accounts from the Maytlower dis
trict continue to be of the highest order,
no matter from whom they emanate-
interested or disinterested people, poor
proSpectors or wealthy mining investors.
The Mayfiower (No. 81 is neither dimin-

go, in size. One gentleman from Butte, OF
long and varied mining experience, made
the statement yesterday that in the May
flower w. A. Clark has the greatest golu
mine in the world Certainly up TO the
present time the statement is indisputable.
The same gentleman is also authority for
the statement that that district will de-
velop into as great a mining district as

''Messrs. Crenshaw, Ross Lyons and

If an average of anywhere near $40 can
be obtained, it will be a great bonanza

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, June 12.-The move
ments OF the men who are opposed to
Mckinley have been very quiet, but IL
ts understood that since the arrival OF
MIR. Quay to-day there has been a con-
ference OF men representing the

Morton; Quay, for himself; Henderson,
for Mr.. Allison, and an Eastern man,
representing Mr.. Reed.
1t was understood that the conference
WAS not with any hope of defeating the
nomination of Mckinley, because Mr..
Quay and Mr.. Manley have already con-
ceded the nomination Of the Ohio m an on

insisted upon at all hazards and to give

Will Favor Free Coinage Under
International Agreement.
Forecast of What the Republican
Financial Plank VIII Be-wm Not
Declare For a Single Gold Standard.
Possible That This May Meet tho
Demands of the Eastern Delegates
Mckinley Delegates Seated.

ST. LOUIS. June 12.-It IL generally
believed tonight that the declaration
In favor Of the gold standard in the Re.
publican platform will be very emphatic
and unequivocal. When the men from
the East reach st. Louis they will find
that the close friends of Major McKin-
ley are ready to offer them q financial
plank that they can agree upon with out
hesitancy.
Several drafts Of platform have
been prepared and 1t is believed now
that form has been secured which will
be satisfactory. 1t will declare against
the free coinage OF silver unless it
should be brought about by interna.
tionsl agreement No ratio is men,
toned and In this respec. 1t is more
acceptable to the gold men. 1t will also
declare that the Republicans ere
against the debasement Of the currency
and Is therefore In favor Of the present
gold standard.
The Republican party will be given
credit for having brought about the
resumption act which has also main
tanned every dollar at q parity, whether
| coin or paper, and that the standard of
money should be. as it always been has
and is now, equal to that OF the most
| enlightened nations OF the world.
These declarations embody the wishes
OF the friends OF Major Mckinley and
the men who are now here approve them.
IL the resolution should be changed IL
will be by the committee on resolutions
or the convention Itself, but this Is not
likely, because 1t contains all that is
asked for except by the most extreme
gold men who want a straight single
gold standard declaration and nothing
more. There is some opposition to the
reference to an international agreement.
but those who desire that language In
serted In the resolution say that the
| party should not place itself in opposi-
tion to the free coinage OF silver under
an international agreement II such an
arrangement could be made, but the
party is not to be pledged TO bring about
such an agreement which Is q conten-
tion OF some Of the delegates.
it Is believed by those who have ex-
amined the proposed financial resolution
that 1t will meet every demand that can
be made by the Eastern men and thatlt
Will be incorporated into the platform
when adopted.
