COPPER m WYOMING.
Valuable Discoveries Reported North
of HaWiins.

Rawlins, Wyo, Oct. 12.-There is con-
siderable excitement among mining
men in this vicinity over the discovery
of a copper belt, situated about three
miles northeast of the gold mines of
the Seninoe mining district and some
40 miles north of here. Up to the pres
ent time two shafts have been sunk to
q depth of 40 feet, exposing a four-foot
VEN Of copper ore, in which is pay
streak from il to 90 inches, averaging
20 per cent copper and a small amount
of gold. The formation of the coun-
try is granite, porphyry and lime. An
old abandoned shaft over 200 feet deep
was also discovered near by with sew
eral abandoned and ruined cabins and
mining implements, which would indi-
cate that the miners had been driven
off by the Indians or massacred long
before the settlement of the country
Work is quietly progressing in the
Seminoe gold mines, and the owners of
the several properties report that the
results of the seasons work are per-
fectIy satisfactory The preliminary
surveys have been made for a railroad
from some point on the line of the
Union Pacific to the Seminoe mines.
and active work on the grades will
soon be commenced. II is the intention
of the capitalists interested in the
enterprise to utilize the great coal and
iron deposits in the Seminoe mountains
by the erection Of furnaces for the
manufacture of pig iron. etc. The
road will be extended north to take in
the great soda deposits that are known
to exist there and also the rich gold
fields of Fremont county.

ANOTHER BAR OF BULLION.
The Ashbrook Mine Making a Great
Record For Itself.

D. c. Roberts, treasurer OF the Salt
Lake Mining & Improvement company,
arrived in the city yesterday with an
other bar of gold and silver bullion
from the mine of the company, which
is located in Ashbrooh district, Box
Elder county
The bar IS the output of the little
mill after a partial run of four days
1t weighed So pounds and would have
been three times as large had it not
been for the heavy rains in the canyon
during the past week, which rendered
the water almost unfit for use in the
boiler.
At the office of the company it was
learned that as work progresses In the
operation and development of its prop
erty the ore is increasing in its metal
lie values, and that While the outlook
for the enterprise has always been
most encouraging it IS now brighter
than ever, as enough good ore is now
blocked out to insure a continuous and
profitable run for an indefinite period.

THE DEBS CRUSADE.
Plan to Organize Schools and Colleges
to Promote His Idea.

" < 1O11IOIC Ills 4NlCtl.
Topeka, Kan, Oct 13.-The Kansas
contingent of the Social Democracy.
promulgated by E. V. Debs, has laid
a plan TO carry the schools and colleges
of this state. The state club organized
here is only the beginning of crusade
which its promoters expect viii sweep
through all the state schools and col
leges of Kansas. Back of the scheme
are some of the Populist leaders of the
state, and most active in the work of
organization are appointees of Chief
Justice Foster of the Kansas supreme
court. The plan as outlined today is to
employ teachers in the various state
educational institutions to arouse sym
pathy with the Debs idea and then to
organize clubs of the Social Democracy
among the students so that when they
go out into the world as teachers, or in
other callingS. they will be fitted to in
culcate the new doctrine.

oAKLAND'S CANAL
A Little Money Is Needed to Complete
the Work

OAKLAND, July 2O.-A memorial has
been forwarded to Congress by people
of Alameda, asking that the Oakland
tidal canal be completed and not aban-
doned. This canal was planned and half
completed under Col. G. Fl. Mende!l,
when he was chief Of the Government
Engineers When Col. Suffer was APP
pointed he withdrew Col Mendelps canal
plan, already partly completed. Mean
while the city Of Alameda and the Fruit
vale sanitary districts completed very
valuable sewerage systems founded up
on the completion Of the tidal canal, and
they do not want 1t abandoned
The government has already spent in
the nieighborhood of s2,o00,000 on the
harbor of Oakland, which work COM
menced twenty years ago. No work
has been done by the government on the
canal since 1892, and 1t ie estimated that
a further appropriation of about $780,
900 will petrmit the completion of the
work. Nearly half million dollars was
spent by the cities of Oakland and Ala
media in the construction of sewers
pending the finishing Of the canal, and II
Is argued that this sewage system will
be Of little service until the work on the
canal Is completed.

A STRANGE CASE
Jennie Crosby Accused Of Stealing
Two Boys


CHICAGO, July 20-LMrs. Jennie Cros-
by. who disappeared from steamer at
the docks In this city on Saturday, with
Dewitt and John, the little sons of Mrs.
Annie Brown of this city, has been ar
ested at Batavia on the charge Of alb
duciion. The boys, who are 10 and s
years old respectively, were travel
stained and without shoes or stocking
Their clothing was ragged. and they
presented a generally forlorn appear
ance that would indicate they had
passed through some very trying ex-
periences.
Mrs. Crosby said that the children had
no. been abducted. but were taken with
the consent OF the mother, who was anx-
ious to get them away from their father,
who whipped them on the slightest prev
ocation. She said the understanding was
that Mrs. Brown was to join her at Auro-
ra. where the two women and the boys
would live together She said she first
met Mrs. Brown and the latter's boys al
Milwaukee, where Mrs. Brown was try
ing to place her little sons. The super
intendent refused to take them, and she
and Mrs. Brown began talking about the
children. The result was, she said, that
it was agreed Mrs. Crosby should take
the boys to Aurora, where Mrs. Brown
would join them.
On leaving the boat at Chicago che
bought tickets for Aurora Arriving
there. she went to the police station and
secured supper and lodging for the night.
The next morning, Mrs. Crosby said, they
started north. Upon arriving at Ba-
tavia, having walked all the way, she
was arrested. Mrs. Crosby protested her
innocence and apparently made no CT
fort to conceal the fact that her charges
were the children of Mrs. Brown.
She said her home was at 25S Washing
ton street, Boston. and that she was
circus performer. While showing in San
Francisco two years ago, she said, che
fell from a trapeze bar and, alighting on
her head, received injuries from which
she had not recovered. Since the acct
dent she has been subject to epileptic
fits.

NO DATE SET
But the Passage of the Bill Is None
the Less Certain

WASHINGTON, July 20-The indica-.
tons when the senate adjourned today
were that vote would be reached upon
the conference report on the tariff bill
some time during Thursday or at the
latest before the close of the week. There
may be change of conditions which
Will postpone a vote but it is difficult to
pee what would cause it. The opposi-
ton will realize that there is no posi-
bility Of preventing the adoption of the
report and their present purpose is only
to secure what advantage they can by
exhibiting what they claim are incon-
sistencies Of the measure. 1t Is true that
al one time they had some hope of be-
ing able to secure the recommittal Of the
bill, but thorough canvass reveals no
foundation for the hope. 1t develops the
fact that the Republicans will vote SOL
idly for the report and that they will be
supported by Jones OF Nevada (Silver
Republican, and McEnery of Louisiana
(Democrat) and also Mantle and Stew
art (Silver Republcans). They have
also discovered that Senator Kyle, a
,Populist, who, Is absent. left instruc-
tons that he be not paired. With the
adoption OF the report the Democrats
probably will not attempt to proIong the
debate beyond the arrival Of Turley, the
new senator from Tennessee. They will
continue to ask for an explanation Of
changes made by the conference, but
these will not occupy great deal OF
time.
The general opinion is that the quor-
UNI of the senate will disappear very
SOON after the disposal Of the tariff bill,
but the determination Of the supporters
-uf the Harris Pacific railroad resolu-
ton to secure vote upon it before final
adjournment may delay that consum-
nation for SEINE days.
