Bxrasa to Resume.

The Barasa Mining company is pre-
pairing for resumption OF operations at
its property near the Negaunee mine. A
shaft was sunk there to depth OF about
sixty feet some three years ago. Quick
sead was encountered and such poor
headway was made that the company
decided. after spending considerable
money, TO abandon the work until the
ore market improved. 1t is now pro-
posed to abandon the old shaft entirely
apd start a new one some distance to the
north. The ore deposit was located with
q diamond drill short distance below
the ledge, which was struck about 100
feet from surface. Bv sinking the new
shaft considerable drifting will be neces-
sary to reach the ore, but the manage
ment fgsres that 1t will be cheaper to
drift than to repair and sink the old
shaft through the quicksand. The ore
isa Bessener, similar to that obtained
af the Negaunee mine. II is expected
that the new shaft will be started soon
after the frst Of the ysar.--Negaunes

standing the fact that the past twelve
months have been dull as regards all

to rejoice over the liberal patronage ac-
corded us during that time, for which we
heartily return thanks to the business

bound to forge rapidly ahead.

SENATE PREPARES FOR WAR.
Bill Passed to Increase Naval Strength
Of the United States.

Washington. March 2-The bill
passed by the Senate to-day for the in
crease of the navy attracted consider
able attention in view of the tension of
the Spanish-Cuban affair.
In explaining the measure Mr.. Hale,
Of Maine, who reported it from the
Naval committee, said that while he
did not believe the United States would
be involved in war as a result of the
present troubles, yet he considered it
desirable to give the President author
.ity in case of war to call out the naval
militia and charter private ships for
naval transports. The bill as passed
authorizes the addition of 1000 en-
listed men to the navy, the enlisting
for no more than two years of the
naval militia forces in case of emer-
gency. The bill passed under the five
minute rule, and by unanimous vote.
Another bill of general interest
passed, whic establishes a retired list
for the revenue marine service, similar
to the retirement system of the army
and navy Most of the day was given
to the Senate calendar and many minor
bills were passed.

1.-THE LARGEST CIRCULATION OFF AMY NORTH CAROLINA DAILY

by Spain reached Secretary Olncy ear
~ yesterday evening in a cablegram
from Mr.. Hannis Taylor, United States
Minister at Madrid The cablegram
follows:
Minister of State has just called to
express deep regret that mob has in
suited Barcelona cOusulate-brealiing
windows-and offered complete repara-
ton. He informed me that the govern
ment on its own motion has taken ev-
cry precaution to guard the legation
and my residence. L have asked no
protection"
President Cleveland was at once adj
vised of the state of affairs i'm Spain
and later in the evening Secretary Oh
ney communicated the facts to a few
members of the Cabinet at his own
house, where they had gathered for
dinner.
The best Indication that no serious
trouble is expected to follow this Bar
celona incident is afforded by the
course Of affairs in the navy and war
departments, which ran along this
morning in the usual quiet and formal
manner, without the slightest sign of
preparation of ships or troops or mill
tary stores which might be expected
if it were felt that an emergency eX-
isted
The prompt action of the Spanish
government in meeting the demands of
outraged international etiquette, no
doubt, is the reason for the assumption
by our government of this serene. and
forbearing attitude, and in view of
the thoroughness of the apology for
oil
official sanction, and is chargeable to
irresponsible students on holiday, it
is probable that our government will
take no further notice of the affair, be-
yond instructing Minister Taylor to
acknowledge in suitable terms our ac-
ceptance of the Spanish disclaimer.

would not deter him from expressing
his honest sentiment. The resolutions,
he argued, were contrary to our we'll

ference in the domestic concerns of
other nations. The Southern people
were not for war. They had had
enough war If the proper time came,
they would spring to the support of this
government and defend her interests
against any enemy; but to-day, with
out cause, except sympathy, we de-
family challenge war from Spain by
these resolutions.
Mr.. HIT closed the debate with the
general assurance that we are not on
the brink of war, and in support of
this assertion he read to the House a
