McHonigle's Cattle Brought in.

News-Miner Sept. 9th: Deputy
Sheriff A. G. Liggett and David
Nickerson reached town last evening
with eighty head of P. McMonigle's
herd of stolen cattle, which are now
in Weber & Sutherland's corral.
They drove them in from a mile
or two below Rollins place yester-
day, leaving one steer and two
calves behind.
Of the eighty head brought in
about twenty-five are calves. Every
steer and COW in the bunch, except
two, have been dehorned. Some Of
the horns were sawed off and some
knocked off. The brands were de-
faced and the ears of the stock mu-
tilated.
The deputy and Nickerson have
had this stock located for a week,
as we'll as the corral where the de-
horning was done. The thieves
also left the stock about the same
time, having got wind that the Off
GERS were upon them. Deputy Lig-
gett, Nickerson and Ryan lay in
ambush waiting for the thieves two
days and two nights but without
results.
The stock was found scattered all
along the canyon near the head of
Willow Greek, and some estrays are
there vet,

AT WHITE PASS.
Miners Bound for KlOndike are Breaking
Down Under Terrible hardships.

A dispatch from Seattle Septem-
Der 9th says: George B. Kittinger,
manager of Millionire Addicks'
klondike expedition, arrived from
the Skaguay trail on the steamship
Queen. In an interview he confirms
the dark accounts sent out of the
condition of affairs at Camp Ska
quay. Miners are breaking down
under the terrible strain caused by
the hardships they are compelled
to endure. Failures are numerous,
thieving and crime have increased
to such an extent that on Friday,
August 81, the executive committee
met and promulgated an order to
the effect that the first man caught
stealing would be hanged without
even the formality of trial or leave
to say his prayers.
1t is impossible to exaggerate the
serious nature Of affairs at the White
pass. Disorga nized and disheart-
ened, the miners have failed to act
in concert in the work of repairing
the trail, consequently little has
been done. The trail is now in
worse shape than ever. 1t is utterly
impossible to man without plenty
of horses, and even the best equip
ped parties make progress slowly
Trouble is sure to come in the min
ers' camp. They are being driven
to desperation by failure and bard
ship, and a feeling of complete
recklessness prevails.

A TERRIBLE ACCIDENT.
Captain and IrA P. p. Baxter and their
Guests Victims Of q Runaway.
THE CAPTAINS PRESENCE OF MIND
AVERTED A FATALITY.

Wednesday evening about eight
o'clock while Captain Baxter with
his wife and Mr.. and Mrs. George w.
Morton were returning from Adams
saw mill in the hotel coach, where
they had been invited by Manager
George Mills, they met with a ter
rible accident which would have re-
suited fatally had it not been for
Captain Bakers presence of mind.
When just below the three mile
bridge that crosses Wood River
while Captain Baxter was driving
his spirited blacks at their usual
gait a party of sheepherders on
horseback suddenly dashed past
the team frightening the horses and
raising such q cloud of dust that it
was impossible to see the road so
the Captain could guide the horses
in their mad flight and as result
the coach collided with q large
boulder at the side of the road up
setting it and throwing Captain
Baxter out fat on his back, but be
retained sufficient presence of mind
to hold onto the reins, realizing that
unless he did those inside the coach
would be killed unless the horses
could be stopped. The Captain was
dragged a short distance before he
could regain his feet.
Mr.. Morton, who was sitting on
the front seat with Captain Baxter,
managed to extricate himself in
few moments from his perilious
position in the upset coach and al
though cut up and bruised, helped
to stop the team which had dragged
the coach for about so yards. Mrs.
Baxter and her sister, Mrs. Morton,
we're then taken out from where
they were pinioned down by the
seats. The ladies were almost in a
condition from the frightful
shock, expecting every moment
that they would be killed. After
they were resuscitated by their anx-
ious husbands it was found tina:
both had received severe cuts and
bruises.
Word was brought to town of
the accident by the men who had
caused the runaway and Sid Vena-
BILE went up with his bus to convey
the party to town. After arriving
at the Baxter Hotel it was found
that Mrs. Morton's left shoulder
was dislocated besides being bruised
all over her body.
Mrs. Baxter received cut on
her left temple and a severe contu-
sion on her left shoulder.
Mr.. Morton received small cash
on the top of his head, cut over
bis left eye. and some bad bruises.
Captain Baxter was considerably
shaken up and sustained a slight
internal injury in the left side.
DR.. Richter, of HALEY was sum-
moned to attend the injured and
after an examination of their cuts
and bruises found that none of the
party were in any danger. Mrs.
Morton was the most seriously in
ured and it was found necessary
10 administer chloroform to her be-
fore the Doctor could put her
shoulder in place.
All the party are able to be up
and about with the exception of
Mrs. Morton who is confined to her
bed and suffering great pain. 1t
was a Providential escape for all
rom an awful death. Mr.. and
Mrs. Morton expected to leave for
heir home in Quincy, Mass, next
tuesday, but the accident which
hey met will detain them in Ketch-
1m probably until the latter part
IF the month.

idaho lGines shutting Down.

Idaho Avalanche, Sept. Sd: Sup
erintendent E. II. Dewey of the
Florida Mountain Mining Com
pany,. received instructions last
Monday from the Eastern Office OF
the company, to discontinue all
work upon the property. This
action is presumed to have been
due to the dull outlook for the
white metal. AT the time of the
close-down the force employed was
limited to prospecting crew of
about ten men, and consequently
the order will not be far-reaching
in its effects in this county.
1t is reported that the order in
cluded the operations of the Dewey
company at Willow Greek. Quite
force of men have been employed
in that district by the company,
but Developments. have not been
sufficiently encouraging to warrant
a further expenditure of money in
the face of the depressed silver
market.
So far, no other Owyhee county
mines have shown any tendency to
close, and from the best information
Obtainable there is no immediate
danger Of it..
The Florida Mountain mill has
not been operated for several months
and the shutting down of develop
ment work on the mine will keep
the mill idle for an indefinite time.
There is feeling about Silver City
that the Trade Dollar and Black
Jack mines and mill may also be
forced into idleness if the price of
silver keeps down. The companies
owning these two properties are
largely identical in personnel in
management and ownership with
the Florida Mountain company.
Seven Devils Mines.
The Lewiston Tribune says:
Idaho will become the scene of
one of the biggest copper operations
on the continent. The Seven Devils
mines will soon yield up their
treasures as the contract for the
construction of two steamboats, has
been let. Capt. Baughman left this
week for Huntington to build. A
company has been formed consist
ing of D. M. White, ]. P. Volmer,
E. W. Eaves, and others, to con-
struct 20 miles of narrow gauge
railroad to connect with steamboats,
that will transport the product to
Huntington, where 0. R. and n
trains will take and deliver it to
Portland. Thence it will be shipped
to England for refinement. Two
smelters $50 and rs tons daily
capacity are now being put in.
Cyrus Edison, ex-manager of New
York City, and Isaac E. Black,
president of the United Savings
Bank of New York, are the chief
figures. 1t is claimed there is 49,
100000 of ore in sight now.
