A Remarkable Railroad Accident.

Chicago Tribune: The accidents that
astOnish railroad men are those that
happen without hurting anybody. Such
a rnishaD occurred to the Lake Shore
flyer. from Cleveland, coming into Chi
cago last Saturday morning. steel tire
slipped from one OF the driving WheelS
of the engine with the train gong at
full speed. This was extraordinary. But
that it should slip off the wheel-over
the connecting rOd-and fall clear OF the
track instead of wrecking the train,
was simply miraculous
The driving wheel revolves, say, four
times every second. covering that same
second so feet of the rail. Fracture the
tire. with its deep inner fiange. made to
keep it on the rail. and try, with that big
connecting rod rising and falling two
feet every quarter of a second. and the
broken tire rolling so feet every second,
to make the tire fall off the wheel and
over the connecting rod. so it shall drop
clear off the wheel, the rod, the rail
and the train. This could not happen
once in 10000 900 times.

the mine will paw as much more within
the next few years. The company
shipped 200 tons of crude ore yesterday
and The Herald is informed that the
monthly output of the mine is now about
200 tons. besides from 500 TO 200 tons
of concentrates. Within the past month
the ore values have been constantly in
creasing.
Mons. Peterson, one of the leading citi-
zens of Moab, in Grand county, who is
in the city, states that at the present
time there is considerable activity in the
Blue mountains, ana that quite u num-
Der of mining operators from Colorado
are now looking the camp over with the
view of making investments. Among the
other improvements planned for the dis
trict in the spring is the erection of
stamp mill on the Dream mine. owned by
Colonel jackson. There is also some ac-
tivity in the development of the copper
mine at Big Injun. between Moab and
the Blue mountains. and it is believed
that in the near future this property will
make a stir in mining circles. Along
the Colorado river. in Grand county. more
or less placer mining is being carried on
later in the season. and ii is more than
likely that this industry will enjoy quite
a growth.

CALIFORNIA; NEW CAMP.
Los Angeles Lays Claim to the
Promising District.

AS mentioned before in these col
umns, Randsburg, on the edge of
Death Valley. in California, 40 or so
miles from Vanderbilt, is making
rapid strides TO the front as a pro-
gressive and growing camp; and it is
stated that Los Angeles now has what
it has long craved fora big gold
camp from which to derive revenue
and trade. A California exchange, in
speaking of Randsburg, says:
The stampede to the desert mining
camp, Randsburg, in California, con-
tinues. 1t is said there are fully 5000
people there now, and by April there
Will be 1000 or 5000. Up to date some
4300 mining claims have been located.
There are only four rough wooden
buildings there now. called hotels, and
about 700 tents. There are five res
taurants and a saloons and dance
halls. One keno and three faro games
are running. Rough lumber sells in
Randsburg for S35 to $40 a thousand
hay from $50 to $50 a ton, wood from
IS to SO a cord, coal, from Gallup, n.
NJ, at SIS per ton, and water at 81
per barrel of 40 gallons for human
drinking purposes. or $3.50 per barrel
for stock Town lots are held from $50
to $1,000, the higher figure being asked
for Casey's lot near the new postoffice
site.
In three months Randsburg has
changed from one of the most dreary
remorseless desert wastes to as lively i
mining town as there is in the world.
1t has grown faster than ever Tomb
stone, in 1879, or the COmstock, in 1863:
for in those days there was no railroad
communication to aid in the rapid
growth of mining towns. Whether
Randsburg will ever grow TO the i'm
portance of either Cripple Creek or
Leadville depends upon the continued
success of the newly found prospects
there. and the finding of water in suf-
ficient quantity to operate the mines
economically.
The original locators in the camp
were F. NJ. Mooers, c. a. Burcham and
John Singleton. They took Pat Reddy.
the noted criminal lawyer, in with
them to perfect their titles, and Reddy
put UP $4,000 working capital.
Last May the claim to the mines
was perfected, and the mining firm of
Mooers, Burcham, Singleton & Reddy
was Incorporated. The firm has spent
many thousands of dollars in tunnel
ing and in sinking shafts into its best
lodges, and has developed the Olympus.
Yellow Aster and Trilby mines more
than others All last summer the
mountain sides yielded ore that aver
aged S94 a ton, and on some days it
ran into rock that was worth over $3.50
ton. The firm keeps it's business a
secret, but the story goes about Rands-
burg that frCm September to Novem-
Der 1t sold over 1856, 000 worth of ore
and il has not begun to reach the
Lodges where the richest rock is to be
found. It is an open secret among all
the miners IN and about Randsburg
that Charles d. Lane, the wealthiest
miner on the Pacific coast today Of
fered the firm of Mooers, Burcham.
Singleton & Reddy $3.50, 600 for fourth
interest in their property when he was
at Randsburg a few weeks ago.

forms The Herald that there is con-
siderable inquiry among the mining
operators of that city for Utah mines
and mining stocks, and he states that
these operators are beginning to leave
Cripple Creek and are turning their
attention to investments in this state,
as Utah is now gaining an enviable
reputation abroad as a rich field for
safe and profitable investments and
speculation.
Mr.. Downey also says that there is
any amount of money in New York
and the east, but that the capitalists
there are afraid to let it out so that
it remains idle in the banks and in
safety deposit boxes.
Mr.. Downey is of the opinion, how
ever, that eventually large blocks of
this money will find its way to this
western country. as the holders are
more than anxious to let it out if they
are satisfied that the investment is a
safe one, and it is acknowledged that
the west offers better opportunities in
this direction than the east.

Establish Headquarters Here.

1t was learned yesterday that Professor
Charles Buffers, the eminent metallurg-
ist. had established headquarters in this
city. and hereafter it will be an easy
matter to find this gentleman or his
representatives in room sol Dooly block,
or on the ground floor of the same build
ing, where it is understood, an assay Of
fee and laboratory will be established. In
the Dooly block Office. at the number in
d:cated above can also be found L. H.
Mitchell. geologist and engineer, and e..
]. Clennell, metalurgical chemist.
The fact that these gentlemen have
established headquarters in this city
means much. it is believed, for the min
ing interests of the state. They all stand
high in their professions and it is with
pleasure that The Herald notes the fact
that they think enough of the mineral
resources of the state to decide on a
thorough examination of our various
CAMPS and districts.

IN THE BLACK HILLS.
Ore in the Ragged Top That Runs
S2,4OO to the Ton.

Sundance Wyo., Jan. 19.-Notwithstand-
ing the recent heavy snow fall in the
Black Hills. the interest in gold mining
and prospecting remains undated. Ore
in the Dacy mine at Ragged Top, east
of this place. has been struck at a depth
of 200 feet, which will run 81, 400 per ton.
There is a great demand for lumber in
the new towns adjoining and hundreds
OF buildings are in process of erection. 1t
is predicted that greater discoveries of
gold will be made the coming season in
the Black Hills country than ever be-
fore, and that the rich ore bodies extend
from Rapid City and Custer on the south
and east to the Bear Lodge and Black
Buttes on the northwest. Prospectors
have come to learn that it requires some
thing more than the driving of stakes
to make gold mine ana hereafter pros
pecting will be carried on more extern
sively and in different manner.

WATERSPOUT AT SEA.
Remarkable Scene From the Deck of
Brig.

Port Townsend. Wash, Jan. 20-The
brig Courtney Ford, from Tahiti, brings
an account of a remarkable water
spout witnessed in the tropics on the
voyage to this port. In longitude 14S
and latitude 1914. on Nov. 2S. at p. m.
a tremendous waterspout was observed,
scarcely a mile from the vessel. Dur
ing the first few minutes, it remained
stationary and reached an altitude of
over 1000 feet, ending in a curious
tumultous cloud. Its base was several
hundred feet in diameter, and around
it the sea was dashed into a cauldron
of white foam for a space of several
hundred yards in circumference.
Slowly the spout moved away, though
it remained in plain view for over an
hour.

Stocks were fairly active on the floor
of the Mining Exchange yesterday,
and an upward tendency of the mar
ket was noticeable.
This was especially the case with
the listed stocks, although there was
no lack of interest in the unlisted Sc
curities.
Ajax was again in good demand yes
terday and was active at the ruling
figures of the past week. Bullion Beck
was stationary but strong at the quo
tations given below, but the stock
failed to record any sales. Daily made
quick advances and closed in good de-
mand. Daly-W also developed an
upward tendency and made gains in
the bidding and offerings. Geyser and
Galena remained practically I'M

in the bidding, and buyer and seller
were nearer to each other than they
have been for some time past. Mer-
cur and Mammoth were both weak
and failed to create any enthusiasm

rose steadily in the bidding, while Sill

congressman Grovel at the Feet of
Gear Reed.

Washington. Jan. 2O.-Several weeks ago
a petition signed by sos members of the
house was presented TO Speaker Reed
asking that 43 public building bills on the
house calendar should be permitted to
come up for consideration. Yesterday a
committee of five, consisting of Mr.
Hooker of New York. Mr.. Herman of
Oregon. Mr.. Hicks of Pennsylvania. Mr.
Overstreet of Indiana and Mr. Curtis
of Kansas called at the speakers room
to learn what conclusion the latter had
reached respecting these measures 1t
was explained to the speaker that the
bills in question had been reported AT two
different times. and that it was desired
al present to consider only a first batch
of %. among which. with the appropria-
tons are the following:
