This is creed of every old prospector

belief, but may lead to a revolution ia

wider grows the ore body. At the 500
foot level the ore was rich but only
eight feet wide. At the 1000 foot level
it had increased to twenty feet. At the
,, 100-foot level it is thirty feet wide,
and as the workmen go still deeper the
ore body grows. 1t is like a great
wedge in the earth with the edge to
the surface. Orders have been given
to sink the shaft an additional 400 feet,
and the mine owners on the Pacific
coast are awaiting the result. If that
ledge continues to grow in size there
will be some lively burrowing in the
bottom of the mother lode this coming
summer. Even the Comstock people
may be tempted to make another ex-
pertinent. AT its present development
the Kennedy has the distinction of be-
ing the deepest gold mine in the world
with the exception of a property in
Victoria, Australia. The shaft from
top to bottom, allowing for the incline,
measures 2,45O feet.

Official Victory for the spaniards

Crushing Defeat.
Rebels Position Bombarded for
Nearly Two Days Without

the Attacking Force--Auton-
omy Offered.

NEW YORK, Oct. S.-A dispatch tt
The Herald from Havana says big
battle occurred on Oct. . in Camaronei
hills, not far from Matanzas, between
the Spanish under General Molina, and
rebels under the command Of Betan,
court, ssnguilly and Raoul Arrange
The fight began at 9 o'clock in the
morning and continued all day. The
official report published here states that
Molina attacked the rebel position and
drove the rebels out with great loss.
The reports state that General Molina
had his horse shot under him. The
Herald's correspondent ct Matanxas hal
obtained an account Of the fight from q
spanish official who was present. From
this it appears that the rebel infantry
were strongly intrenched in an almost
inaccessible position in the hills, and
- skbrts to dislodge them were futile,
sssulting only in heavy losses for the
attacking forces. The insurgents had
only few men killed, and jeered and
tainted the Spanish during the whole
engagement. General Molina narrowly
escaped death Euraged at his failure.
he returned to the attack the next day,
but with no better success. A largo
number Of wounded and dying Spanish
soldiers were brought into Matanzas.
Ell Pals publishes statement to the
effect that up to date 1900 Of the 5000
reconcentrados in the town Of Jaguey
Grande have died Of hunger.

IN WEYLER'S HONOR.

Approval of His Policy.
HAVANA, Oct. Sin spite of Captain
General Weyler's prohibition, notable
demonstration took place here during
the day in his honor. The bourse was
closed as were also the principal stores
and the tobacco and other manufacto-
ries. All the main streets were gaily
decorated.
The various professions united at
Central park and then moved together
to the plaza in front of the captain
generals palace, where as many 40 TO-
600 people were gathered. A number
of Populations went to the palace,
where they were received by the cap
tain general. According to the official
accounts they assured him that it was
the desire of all the loyal inhabitants of
the island that he should continue at the
Head of the Government
and carry on the campaign against the
insurgents. Captain General Weyler,
after thanking the deputations for their
assurances, said: II would like to
please those who are today demonstrate
ing in my honor by remaining in Cuba,
but the delicate position in which
have been placed has compelled me to-
day to request the government to dis
pose of my position in whatever it may
think convenient, and however the
matter may be decided I shall always
