HERE IT Is AGAIN.
Short Line Story From Butte This
Time.


OF course the story was due. but no
one expected to get it from the north,
instead of the east. Here it is. from
the pages of the Anaconda Standard:
Z. V. Maze, general agent of the
Union Pacific. was called to Salt Lake
yesterday to meet General Traffic Man
ager Monroe. who will be there tomor-
row from Omaha. That fact, taken
in connection with the latest reports
from Omaha, might be taken 10 indi-
cate that there is something in the
Union Pacific and Short Line situation.
The latest story from Omaha. which
reached Butte yesterday, is that the
Oregon Short Line is practically in the
old position with the Union Pacific, and
that the separate management is only
name now; that condition has prevailed
since the LIST of April; that the rolling
stock of the Oregon Short Line is again
in use on the main line for the first
time since the segregation; that the
separate management is expected TO
end on the 1st of June. and that this
condition is supposed to be due to the
reorganization committee of the Union
Pacific securing a majority of the stock
of the Short Line. Mr.. Maze had no
official knowledge of any of these al
legged facts, and before leaving for
Salt Lake yesterday said he did not
believe that his call TO meet Mr.. Mon
roe had anything to do with the Short
Line situation, but was simply for a
consultation about certain traffic mat
tiers.
From gentleman connected with the
law department of the Union Pacific the
opinion came yesterday that the above
information from Omaha was practi-
cally correct, except as to the Short
Line management. and in that event
there would probably be no change.
The gentleman quoted said he had not
understood that the Ogden gateway
would be affected by the alleged new
management, and had no idea how that
would fare.
General Agent Bacon of the Short
Line returned yesterday from Salt
Lake, where he met the head officials of
the company. They had not heard the
latest from Omaha, and that the stu
alton was in no way referred to.
They have long ago ceased to give
any attention to these rumors, said
Mr.. Bacon. There is nothing in them,
and they are only amusing, nothing
more"
All of the above is rubbish. Rolling
stock of each line is used on the other
and has been right along. There isn't
anything in the story.

said they had no doubts of making

a draft of so men was made at the
Gemini mine last Saturday morning,
and came as a severe surprise to most
of the employees, as well as the citi-
zens of the town. The occasion of the
draft was the necessity for retimbering
the shaft from the surface TO the 800
level. owing to the decay occasioned
by time and an alleged defect in the
original work. Only about % men are
now employed at the mine, but Super
intendent McChrystal reports that the
repair is going ahead at the rate of

EAGLE VALLEY PROGRESSIVE.
The Excellent Showing On the Nam
moth and Pickett Groups


Ben Johnson, the veteran miner ana
one of the pioneers of Eagle Valley dis
trict, who is in from this promising
gold camp. informs The Herald that
there is a great deal of activity in that
locality at the present time. and that
the outlook for the district is most en-
couragins.
At the present time work is being
pushed in the development of the
Mammoth and Horse Shoe groups,
owned by Messrs. Johnson. Campbell
and Lund. six men being employed in
doing contract work on these two prop
critics.
On the Mammoth a tunnel has been
run into the mountain a distance Of
100 feet. from which a cross-cut has
been run on the ledge for O. feet, the
entire workings being in solid mass
of milling gold ore, while on the Horse
Shoe a shaft has been sunk for 100
feet. all the way in a mass of ore,
much Of which will pay TO treat on the

The Charlie Ross and the Italian. be-
ing operated by the companies owned
largely by DR.. Nelson. are also fine
lockers, and the mill for the italian and
Comstock win soon be ready for its
initial run.
Mr.. Johnson states that the little
mining town of Deer Lodge is making
excellent growth while the outlook for
the whole camp is most encOura ging
Statelne is also growing, and without

INDICATIONS OF COAL.
Important Developments Under Way
On the Cache-Box Elder Border.

On the Cache-Box Elder Border.
Logan, April 15-Mr William Gun
ningham of Peterboro, one of the well
known residents of the county, was in
Logan today, and brought some inter
esting information in regard to the
finding of what Mr.. Cunningham be-
lieVes is a first class coal mine, and as
the gentleman has had more than 80
years of experience as a practical coal
miner, his opinion is worth considering.
The discovery was made last fall on
the farm of Mr. Willard Hansen,
which is situated on the divide between
Cache and Box Elder counties, and is
perhaps L miles from here. During
the winter a shaft 20 feet deep has
been sunk, and all the way down the
genuine coal bearing strata has been
encountered. Work had to be sus-
pended a short time ago on account of
the great inflow OF water, which, Mr..
Cunningham says, is as black as ink
and very oily.
The parties owning the mine are
Messrs. Willard Hansen who owns
1910 acres of land surrounding the
mine; William Cunningham, and
Robert Simpson. They intend drilling
now. by machinery, to a depth of $50
feet and if coal is struck within that
depth a 500 foot tunnel will be run
into the hill to tap the coal body. If IT
is not found by drilling to that depth,
a perpendicular shaft will be sunk, I'M
til it is found, for the owners are con-
WINGED of the existence of coal there.
Tests made by the agricultural col
lege chemist, of samples taken from the
bottom of the shaft show liz per cent
of fixed carbon, and in fact every indi-
cation points to a coal deposit there.
The recent developments have at
tracted considerable attention and
great many people have visited the
mine of late. some merely out of
curiosity. and others with a desire to
invest The owners, however, have no
desire to dispose of their property. as
they believe they have a big thing.
which they certainly will have if their
are realized.
