WAR IN INDIA

6IMLA. Dec. 14.-Aooording to official
dispatches from the northwestern from
tier. the march Of Gen. Westmacott's brig
AIDE from the camp at Cher KEEL into the
Sturl Khel country was one continuous ac-
tion. The enemy closed up on the rear
guard. and kept firing with great spirit.
The British losses were heavy. and in
oluded Lieut.. West Of the Gurkhas, who
was killed. and Lieut.. Chaplar. who was
wounded. Two other officers received in
juries and forty men were killed and
wounded.
The whole march down the Dara valley
since the 9Th inst. has been marked by in
cessant fighting, but the force has behaved
The route was difficult in the
extreme. through rain, mud and snow.
Along the river the course was impeded
by ravines and boulders and the ice-cold
stream had to be forded knee-deep twenty
times. Twelve thousand transport ami
mails, with numerous sick and wounded,
encountered the progress.
The casualties yesterday were about fifty
and today about ten. The enemy has been
severely punished In the recent encounter.
The disaster to Gen. Kempster's rear
guard, that was cut or by the tribesmen
on Saturday near Sher Khel. was due to
the animals becoming entangled in the
rice fields at dusk.
To increase the difficulty. the drivers and
carriers opened kegs Of rum. and became
hopelessly drunk. Many OF their follow

their feet bruised by the boulders. Sew

At present the power for the 24O stamps
Of the Treadwell and Mexican plants is
sufficient but for the running Of the
new machinery an electric transmission
power plant capable of operating 600
stamps, Is to be erected beyond the Cas-
tineaux channel. This work will be ac-
complished in the spring, and when 1t 10
completed it Is estimated that the ore
of the Alaska Treadwell group can be
mined and milled at a cost Of less than
dollar per ton. Just think of it!
In spite Of the improved processes that
have been introduced for saving the pre-
cious metals in ores, large quantity Of
gold still goes into the tailings In many
mills. The following directions for as
pertaining where the loss in sulphurets
occurs will be found useful:
ITO ascertain where the loss in sui
phurets occurs, a good way is to pass
one Of 10,000-grain samples through a
60-mesh wire screen; weigh that which
passes through and that which remains
on the screen, and pan out each lot care.
fully by itself, from one pan to another
as long as the sulphurets can be recovs
cred; then weigh each batch separately.
The use Of 10000 grains Is recommended,
as every 100 grains Is 10 per cent, and
each grain is LOO Of per cent. It ID
also a convenient size for obtaining ac-
curate results. By using pulp samples
instead of tailings, the amount Of sul-
phurets in the ore may be ascertained.
If the sulphurets assay SIS per ton, and
the quantity per ton Is IL per cent. the
value Of the sulphurets in one ton 81
ore is found by multiplying SIS by 0.017.
which would be $127 per ton. II the loss
Of sulphurets in the tailings Is IL graina
out Of the 1O,O00-grain sample, and the
value of the sulphurets Is SIS per ton.
then multiply SIS by 0.0011, and the value
of the sulphurets in the tailings Is found
to be $0.oS25 (SA cents) per ton Of tails
ings."

The supreme court has settled ques-
ton of interest to mining men, and one
that has involved many disputes. The
particulars Of the case decided are thus
described by the Calaveras Prospect:
&c. w. Pomeroy and A. E. Pomeroy
are the owners Of the Mount T1molus
quartz mine, and In 1894 bonded the
mine to the defendant, Henry H. Bell.
Bell, in his operations on the mine. placed
thereon hoisting works and mill, but
nothing was said in his agreement as to
the right to remove these improvements
mine. In 1895 Bell abandoned the mine
and commenced to tear down and re-
move the machinery and buildings,
when he was stopped by an injunction
sued out by Pomeroy. On the trial in the
superior court Judge Gottschalk decided
that, as the agreement was silent as to
any right to remove the improvements,
they became part OF the land and be-
longed to Pomeroy. The supreme court
affirms this judgment The case virtu-
ally decides that If a written agreement
does not permit machinery and improve
ments to be removed on the termination
Of the bond. they become the property
Of the owner and cannot be taken away"
It will strike most readers with sur
prise to learn how enormous has been
