FULL TEXT OF SECRETARY sHERMANs
CELEBRATED DISPATCH

The SPECIFICATIONS on WHICH THE STATE De
rARTMENT RELIED TO PROVE IT'S CASE
AGAINST ENGLAND NOW FOR THE
FIRST TINE MADE PUBLIC
Washington, September 20.
Fresh attention Is called TO the letter from this
Government on the Behring Sea question. by
the recent issue of the British Blue Book on the
subject. and the comments telegraphed from the
London press. An abstract of this letter was
furnished 10 the Associated Press last June. but
was subsequently recalled at the request of the
silver negotiators. The Washington representa-
tive Of The Tribune who had not been advised
OF this recall thought it better TO telegraph the
full document. IL reached the office late at night.
in the absence Of the responsible editor. and thus
happened to be cut down to about half its
length. Unfortunately, in this process the tele-
graph desk left out large part of the proof
adduced in support of the statements made. All
the subsequent discussions. including the recent
LONDON comments. have been based solely upon
what The Tribune thus published Justice to the
State Department now requires that the speci-
fcations 1t presented should be given much
publicity as the general statements they were
intended to prove. The entire letter is therefore
subjoined.--the part previously published being
now printed in smaller type.

Some authorities on dyeing shy TINT
silk receives aud holds dye better than
any other fabric
In the south Of China silkworms have
been reared and silk manufactured for
over 5000 years.
Roger, king of Italy, is said to have
introduced the silk culture into that
country about 1146.
Between the years 1850 and 1776
100 900 pounds Of silk were exported
from Georgia to England.
Spain, formerly large silk producer,
in 1887 manufactured only 100000
pounds, valued at 81 100000.
The word shesh, found in the book Of
Genesis and translated silk, is the same
which elsewhere is rendered by the trans
lators "fne linen.
AS early as 1884 an English convoca-
tlon decreed that the higher clergy dur.
ing the solemn ceremonials Of the church
should wear silken gowns.
Down to the sixth century the manu-
facture of silk seems to have been con.
fined to China, few districts in India
and one or two i'll Persia. The Chinese
government forbade, on pain Of death,
the expectation Of worms, cocoons or
eggs.-St. Louis Globe Democrat.

THE ROYAL ROAD.
The Bloomington Mill Now in Successful
Operation-The Royal All Right.

The Bloomington Mill Now in Successful
Operation-The Royal All Right.
The NEW NORTHWEST is informed
from reliable sources that the road to the
Royal mine will be completed early this
spring. 1t is estimated that the road can
be completed and put in good condition
for the sum of $1,000. In fact, we are
told that a gentleman residing at the
Royal has proposed to complete the road
for that sum, and that he will contribute
$500 of the amount.
With the completion Of this road the
Royal district and all that mineral belt
lying along the east side Of the Gold
Creek range would have an eastern out
let into the Deer Lodge valley, and would
be the means of opening up mining
section now almost inaccessible. Itwould
also be great saving in time and money
to those travelling to and from the Royal
district. With the road in good order the
drive could be made from Deer Lodge in
four hours. AS it is now, it takes from
IL to Is hours to make the journey. The
road should be completed as soon as pos
sible.
John and Peter Scherr, who are active
members of the Bloomington company,
spent a day or two in town since our last
issue. The 1Ostamp mill which was re-
Gently erected at the Bloomington is
now running successfully on ore from
that mine. No cleanup has yet been
made, but the plates are said to be look
ing very satisfactory. The mine is look
ing we'll and the Messrs Scherr are we'll
pleased with the outlook. The Bloom
ington and Royal are near neighbors,
being only about mile apart.
Owing to the fact that consider rable
development work has been done at the
Royal the past season, that famous little
mine has not shown as large an output
as last year, but the last cleanup, made
from 15-days' run, amounted to about
$4,000.

A RICH DISTRICT.
Work is Going Ahead on the NIamm o TIL
The Clemantha Turning Out Ore.

Work is Going Ahead on the NIamm 9TH
The Clemantha Turning Out Ore.
There is considerable activity in the
Coloma mining district north of Bear
mouth caused by the resumption of work
under a new management on the Mann
moth mine, where force of IL men is at
work sinking new shaft. Within a
short time, it is said, a new hoist is to be
erected, when larger force of men will
be employed.
On the Clemantha property, near the
Mammoth, force of about IS men has
been kept at work all winter extracting
gold-bearing ore, which is being shipped
to the Colorado smelter at Butte. The
average output has been three cars per
month. The ore is rich, which is best
proven by the fact that the lowest grade
averages 500 per ton and the highest
$135. The mine is being we'll developed
as the ore is being extracted and the
miners who are sinking every day are
now down 300 feet The greater depth
they gain the mine looks more promising.
P. P. Pierce of Missoula is one of the
principal owners and believes now more
than ever that they have an excellent
mine. Many who are familiar with the
Coloma mining district say it is only a
matter Of time until it proves itself to be
one of the greatest gold producing dis
tricts in Montana-M Missoulian.

Wearing scarfs.

The wearing Of scarfs as graceful
and becoming headdress is likely to be-
come fashion with slender women
who know how to wrap themselves pic
turesquely in airy folds and draperies.
The thinner and softer the material the
more beautifully it drapes, and the scarf
is fastened to the headdress or the hair
and comes down about the back of the
head and throat and over the shoulders
and floats airily down to the hem of the
gown. But it is a trying fashion for
any woman who has not style and grace
in her nature and dress.

Silk Pouches Go With the Gown.

Brocaded silk pouches, with a little
fur animals head at the bottom, are the
latest accessory to the fashionable wom-
ans evening toilet.
The pouch closes at the top by ribbon
drawstrings, and the wearer carries it
by letting it swing from her arm, or she
fastens it with a jeweled pin at her
waist.
There are long, narrow pouches made
purposely to hold the fan, and variety
Of others in various shapes for the safe
keeping Of the handkerchief, bonbon box
or powder puff.
The pouches are rather curious ad-
dition to the evening gown. They look
best when carried with costume trim
med with fur, in which case the little
animals head is made of the same fur
as that which trims the gown.

"BlRDs OF PASSAGE"
Five Prisoners Make Their Escape fron
the Deer Lodge Jail.

Five Prisoners Make Their Escape from
the Deer Lodge Jail.
Five prisoners made their escape from
the Jail in this city about o'clock
Wednesday evening. The cage was
taken out of the Jail and shipped to An
aconda last week, which left the building
In weak and unsafe condition. There
were about 35 prisoners huddled together
In the lower story of the jail, and Of this
number five made their escape by cutting
the locks and prying open the east side
door, which was the only barrier between
them and liberty; for once outside the
door it was an easy matter to climb over
the board pen o., the outside. But the
strangest part of the story is that no
more of the prisoners embraced the op-
portunity to walk out, for among them
are three who are bound over to the dis
trict court on various charges, besides
quite number of tough cases generally.
AS soon as it was learned that some of
the prisoners had escaped, Deputy
Sheriff Gleeson called the roll and soon
determined who the missing ones were.
All of them were sent here from Ana
conda to serve short terms for various
offenses and all are said to be hardened
criminals. Since the removal of the
cage extra precaution has been taken to
prevent the escape of prisoners, but
Notwithstanding the vigilance of the
officers, these five criminals gave them
the slip and are now at large. We do
not think the blame should attach to the
officers; we believe them all to be con
scientious and faithful men. The build
ing was not safe place to hold nearly
40 men, many of them hardened Grim
inals, after the cage had been removed.

n. P. Staffersen, who resides in the vi

Lodge yesterday Mr.. Staffersen and
many of his neighbors are very indignant
at the manner in which they are being
treated by the Anaconda company. He
says their ranches are being destroyed
and their stock is dying from the effects
of the tailings and water from the Ana
conda smelter. They have in turn plead,
begged and threatened the company, but
have received nothing but bluffs in re.
turn. He says they have been imposed
upon by the company until "forbearance
has ceased to be virtue" and that now
they propose to fight for their homes. 1t
relief does not come soon, he thinks they
will have to abandon their homes, and he
intimates that they will defend their
rights in the courts before many months
have passed.

. BIG MINING DEAL.
A Deer Lodge Boy Buys Group of Mines
--..l-.- i'll Utah.

A Deer Lodge Boy Buys a Group of Mines
--..s-.- i'll Utah.
The Salt Lake Tribune of Feb. IA has
the following in regard to big mining
deal, just consummated, in which Irwin
Higgins, a wellknown Deer Lodge boy,
is the purchaser Of valuable group of
mines in Utah:
"Gold Mountain, in Pinte county, has
furnished the material for another big
deal, its consummation bringing with it
young blood and abundant capital with
which to develop the property involved.
The group that passes in the transaction
consists of eight claims, that have been
developed by J. T. Miller and John
Jukes. A short time ago an option upon
them was secured by G. D. Ray of Fill
more. and yesterday the property was
sold to w. l. Higgins of Montana, the
purchaser agreeing to pay 100000 for it
and paying $4,000 down. There has
been much attention drawn to the group
ever since the bond was secured upon it.
Although the workings have not attained
depth greater than thirty feet, it is
claimed that in the vein are four feet of
ore that will average over $1O0 in gold
per ton, while in addition to this is a
body that shows better than $40 in the
assays. The group is within two miles
of that embraced in the property of the
Sewer Mining company, and has long
been looked upon as very promising
one. The intention, said the resident
representative of the purchaser yester-
day, is to begin the systematic develop
ment of the property at once, and if the
results are such as now appear to be
assured, a mill will be put up the present
year.
"Mr Higgins has for many years been
identified with mines of Montana and
Oregon, where his investments have been
very successful, and has interests at
Mercur that are being steadily de-
veloped."
