The Cradle fiasco. which for the past
week has been the leading topic of dis
cussion in financial circles in the Black
Hills as vel as elsewhere, is Of too
recent occurrence 10 definitely determine
the measure of it's ultimate effect upon
the various enterprises with which that
gentleman was so prominently connect.
cd in the Hills Notwithstanding the
very disquieting to our people, and the
apparent probability that it may result
in the temporary impairment Of public
confidence in our mining resources, it is
by no means probable that, in the face
of our large and constantly growing gold
output, the injury will be of material
consequence, or that its effect will be
felt for any considerable period Of time.
The declarations of the officers in con-
troll of these enterprises, to the effect
that work upon all will be continued,
Gus companies to carry out their plans
as originally contemplated. is, TO say the
least. assuring. In view ofthe conceded
merits of these various enterprises. all
of which give fair promise of profitable
returns, there would seem to ne little, if
any grounds upon which to base the
conclusion that the Cradle episode
would result in permanent injury to the
Black Hills.

Will Not Lose Reputation.

The Lincoln, Neb., Journal very sen.i-
bly, says: The newspapers are exploiting
+. G. Cradle with AS much enthusiasm
as he could possibly put into the adver.
tising of one of his favorte mining pro-
positions. The effect of all this pub
Lefty is naturally embarrassing to Mr.:
Cradle and disquietipg to the people of
the Black Hills, but it cannot have .
permanently unfavorabe effect on that
region. 1t has not been ascertained as
yet that his companies will not prove
reasonably good Investments. AS far
as the Black Hills region is concerned,
this incident ought TO bring to the at
tention Of the public the fact that the
mines have been less doomed there
than in any other rich district in the
country. The operators have been con-
servative. values have been kept low
and very few wild cat concerns have
been using the Hills as a basis of opera
tions. The Black Hills mines will not
lose reputation through Mr.. CRADLES
excessive enthusiasm.

An Important Case.

The case of the Buxton VS. the Golden
Reward Mining company, now being
tried before the U. 8. court in Dead-
wood, is one Of the most important cases
ever tried in the Hills. and is liable to
occupy the attention Of the court until
the close OF the coming week. Referring
to this case. the Pioneer Times in it's
issue Of last Tuesday says: In this
case the plaintiff sues to recover 500, 600
damages from the defendant for ores
alleged to have been taken from plaint-
iff's ground and $4,000 to cover costs Of
the action. The principal issue in this
case is the amount and value of ore 90
extracted. To determine this there will
be two bitterly contested points. one a.
to whether or not the Golden Reward
company took the ore bv mistake. Ifit
is so determined, the Golden Reward
company will be rewarded the cost Of
mining and milling and the plaintiff
will ask Judgment for the net proceeds.
Another important point to be deter.
mined will be the amount Of waste mat
ter taken out with the ore. Both sides
have prepared their cases with the ut.
most care and have subposaned large

The Denver Way.

Commenting upon an article appear
ing in the CHRONICLE Of last week,
under the caption, "A new game played
low down." showing how scheme was
played by certain Denver mine oper-
ators to beat one OF our local promoters
out of his commission in mining deal
says:
THAT is Colorado trick. Nowhere
else in the world Is it worked TO such
perfection as in Denver and by the most
prom nent mine operators OF the state.
They always manage to wear out or
freeze out the promoter and buy direct
from the owners at greatly reduced
prices. God pity the promoter with
limited means who falls into their
clutchee."

CRADLES Graft.

Francis CRADLE, the man Who buncoed
eastern men out OF some millions OF
dollars on his magnificent western pro-
positions, with a nerve that aqua fortis
wouldn't touch, was not particularly
choice as to whom he worked uron, says
the Deadwood Independent, but went
at the people promiscuously and went
through them alike. He must have
been a hypnotist. Six warrants of at
tachment were issued against him and
the companies with which he vas con-
nected before ten o'clock this forenoon
from the clerk Of courts office here, and
two we're issued in Fall River county by
Deadwood attorneys for other men who
were seeking satisfaction for claims
against Cradle. The amounts ranged
from $50 to 5000. Those who got out
warrants we're: The Phoenix Iron

about eady to return home the conver-

Gov, Lees Plan Fails.

Judging from the tone OF the press Of
the northern Hills. the plan for raising
money by subscription to defray the
expense of a state exhibit at the Trans
Mississippi exposition, as proposed by
Gov. Lee, is very liable to result in a
failure, so far as the Hills is concerned.
1t is reported that the local committee
having the matter in charge, are having
rather indifferent success in the matter
of securing subscriptions, and as a
natural consequence are becoming great
ly discouraged. Much as the matter is
to be regretted, it may be set down AS a
probable fact, that the Black Hills will
not be represented at the great exposi-
ton. The goose was very thoroughly
cooked when the legislature, In accord
ance with the wishes Of Gov. Lee,
refused to grant an appropriation for
this purpose.
