ing shaft of the mine. The work laid
out insures steady employment to a
large force for several months to
come.
The McDermott employs about 10
miners and is shipping some splendid
ore. Recent developments on the 100
foot Level discovered a large body of
shipping ore, and the next go days Will
witness a greater output of ore from
this mine than at any time in its his
tory.
At the Spokane shaft some extensive
crosscut drifts have been made at a
depth of 40 feet, but up to the present
nothing of any Importance has been
discovered.
Both on the Minnie Palmer and
Joliet development work is being
pushed as rapidly as possible.
Major Hornbrook and associates have
suspended operations on the Austin
and will abandon their lease. as the
exploration work so far has developed
nothing that justifies its continu-
ance.
Messrs. Taylor and Donland made a
good strike recently in the Mary An
derson. The ore was found in the bot
tom of an old shaft that was sunk 20
years ago. The old shaft was recently
cleaned out and retimbered and sink
ing began. Only few feet below the
old bottom had been attained, however,
when a splendid body of shipping ore
was broken into. A hoist and pumping
plant has been ordered for the mine.
The circumstance of this strike re-
minds one Of the Irishman who swore
he would never abandon a prospect
shaft until he had sunk it 10 feet
deeper.
By failure to make a payment March
l of $4,000, the. Emmett Mining COM
pany forfeited their bond upon the
Mitchell Mussigbrod property, and the
property reverts back to the owners,
Messrs. Mitchell and Mussigbrod, of
Warm Springs. The property under
bond embraced IA mining claims, II of
which were patented; also 20 acres of
placer, one well-equipped 10-stamp mill
and four water rights. Nearly $4,000
had been expended in improvements
and development prior to the Emmett
company company taking a bond,
which called for $4,000 as the purchase
price. DR.. Mussigbrod informs the
Standard correspondent that they have
taken the property out of the market
and will work it themselves in the flu
ture, A force of men will be put to
work in a few days developing the
numerous prospects while the mill is
being repaired.

it?"
Il do not"
Take the 500 cross-cut going over
to the Sulivan-doesn't it cut a pretty
barren country?'
1T does not. 1t rs a little harder
but it is as well fractured ard as well
mineralized."
The witness was examined very
closely on the subject of veins, assures,
streaks and seams. and as to why he
didn't call the seams in the Rarus fis-
sureS or veins. He said the cracks
do not have great length or great
depth. They are met and crossed by
other cracks.
What makes a true fissure yein?''
1T must have great length and
fairly regular dip and goes to greater
depth"
Must II be a mile long?"
Not necessarily"
Fifteen hundred feet long?"
No
Ten feet?"
THAT wouldn't do"
We'll, 200 feet?"
1T would depend upon what is at
each end of it,
do you agree with Mr.. Chase that
this fiat vein between the faults is a
separate and distinct vein?'
Il do"
Measure that fiat vein?'
1T measures 80 feet long"
Pretty short for a vein?"
This is since the faulting. 1t may
have been much longer at one time"
But IL has been 90 feet long ever
since the days of ADAM
Not necessarily. Some of the fault
ing has occurred more recently"
But ii has been 80 feet long ever
since the mining laws of 1922"
Yes. since then it has been only 90
feet"
"Then 1t has been only 80 feet since
any rights you may have?"
Yes"
isn't that a pretty short vein?"
There is probably more to ii some
where. but / don't know where the rest
of il is
Going to the territory in dispute,
with it's assures and naturalization,
the witness considered the north vein
prior to the cross vein
which cuts through it. He would call
the cross vein connecting vein.
DO you consider these slopes at the
$50 to be on a vein or only a seam?"
Slopes don't always indicate that
there has been ore there"
What could be the use of stopping ex-
cept to get out ore?''
1t might be for purposes of law suit.
and that is what l think these slopes
were made for
Have you any evidence of this be-
sides your thoughts?"
I'VE could not find samples there that
paid to amount to anythng-nothing to
warrant stopping. There may have
been a few good streal1s.'
Speaking of the veins between the 700
and the 500 the witness said that they
ran close up to each other, and there
was n vein connecting them but he con-
sidered them separate veins.
How close are they at the 600?"
Pretty close Not more than 16 or Is
feet"
rs il more than 10 feet?"
Not between the Slopes. but I think
you stopped too wide there"
"Oh. you think we played you again
there"
We'll, we'll call it 10 feet between
Them
And they connect above?'
Yes
yet they are separate and distinct
veins?"
I'm my opinion"

AN OLD-TIME FAVORlTE.
A Rousing Benefit Given Nellie Farrar in


a housing Beuent TWEEN Nelle III
London.
London. March 17.-An London was in
terested to-day in the benefit to Nellie
Farrar. one of London,s old-time favorite
actresses, and who, with Fred Leslie, was
in the first gaiety company that visited
the United States. All of the leading man
ayers, actors and actresses co-operated in
the arms for the benefit, and Drury Lane
theater was selected for the performance.
Weeks ago every available seat had been
sold netting $4,000. while SUBSCRIPTIONS
poured in from many sources, including
$1,000 from George Edwards. $500 from the
Rothschilds. $500 from the Duke of Beau
fort 500 from Lord Rosebery and 500
each from Lord Latham, the Duke of
Fife. Earl cadogan and Lord Farauhar.
Some idea of the interest taken in the
performance may be gained from the fact
that the newspapers to-day printed bulle-
tins announcing the progress of the crowd
around the theater which, as carly as
S:3o numbered about 5000 people.
The doors were opened at 1890 and the
performance began at l2:2O p. m. amid n
scene of tremendous enthusiasm inside
the building. Such a crowd was never seen
at Drury Lane. and as every turn began
and as the actors and actresses named
appeared they were greeted with pro-
longed applause.
Seymour HICKS, Ellen Terry and Sarah
Nicholas began the performance with the
comedietta. "Papa's Wife" and the &C.
lebrities followed each other in rapid sue
cession. Among them were George Alex
ander. II. b. Irving and others. who APP

REJECTED WITH SCORN
The Silver Republicans Will Not
Unite With the Regulars.
TO PLAY THE GAME ALONE
The Little Scheme Died Before 1t Was
Officially Born-It Took the Com
mittee Only Few Minutes to
Decide the Question.

There will be no union of the republi-
can forces of Butte this year. that is,
so far as the municipal election is con-
cerned. The silver republicans decided
last evening that they had no desire
10 play in the back yard of the Nc
Kinley wing of the party. and accord
ingly formulated their plans to go
ahead and act Independently. This de-
cision was arrived at last evening at
the meeting of the city central COM
mittee of the silver republicans, which
was held in the office of w. McC. White
in the Mantle & Bielenberg block. 1t
was conveyed to the meeting unoffi-
cially that an invitation had been ex
tended to the silver republicans by the
regulars to go back into the fold. 1t
was stipulated that the silver repub
licans would not be required to change
their views on the money question. but
they could bring their platform with
them. and therefore, as matter of
fact all the conditions amounted to
was that the two wings should no long
er be designated as silver or ''regu-
lars" but all should come under the
head republicans.
The representatives of that part of
the republican party who supported
Mr.. Bryan. could not see it that way.
however, and it took but few minutes
to reject the proffer of the Mckinley
ties with scorn.
There was nearly a full committee
present, and w. McC. White expressed
the unanimous sentiment of all present
when he said that as it appeared to
him, for the silver republicans to join
with the regulars on such terms. II
would be simply nuts for Colonel
Sanders and that class of Mckinley
republicans to be able to fill the coll
umns of the associated press with the
announcement that the silver republi
cans in the very stronghold of the sill
yer cause, had abandoned that cause
and come back into the ranks of the
old party. Every member of the COM
mittee took the same view and the
little scheme died before it was Off
cially born.
After deciding to paddle their own
canoe. the committee decided to change
the dates set for caucuses. primaries
and city convention. They will hold
the caucuses Saturday evening, their
primaries Monday evening and their
convention the evening of the Esd.

HIGHER FREIGHT RATES.
An Advance All Along the Line by the
Pacific Mail.

San Francisco, March 1.-THE Panama
railroad, in conjunction with the Pacific
Mail Steamship company has issued a
new freight tariff, which contains some
startling advances in eastbound commod-
NY rates. The new rate schedule. which
has just been put into effect, affects every
important item of merchandise that helps
to form the eastbound tonnage out of CAL
ifornia by rail or water. The average adj
vance is so per cent, while in one in
stance, that of peas, the rate is advanced
100 per cent. The new tariff contains but
one reduction and on four commodities
the rates remain undisturbed. All the
rates quoted are in cents for the 100
pounds. The reason for the advance has
not been explained, but is accepted as
probable by the local shippers that the
new tariff is the result of an understand
ing between the water carriers and the
rail lines. tt7
