Florence Mining Notes.

Chas. Slade is preparing to
push development work on
on the Montana and Portland
group of claims recently pur-
chased by Spokane and eastern
parties and incorporated under
the name of "Adrian Gold Mi
ming Co., of Spokane, officered
by c. B. King, John B. Goode,
E. K. Irwin, and Chas. Slade
as general manager. The show
ing on these claims is one of
the best in the district. Both
the Montana and Portland are
favorably located in one of the
most promising parts of the
district, adjoining the RedBird
and Poorman properties. Mr..
Slade intends to commence at
once work on the Montana,
where there is a fine vein which
was opened up by the recent
owners.
A controlling interest in the
RedBird has lately been pur-
chased by R.M.Sherman of the
Vermont Loan and Trust Co.,
of Spokane. The consideration
is not known, but rumor has it
that the property was sold on
the basis of $4,000. Mr.Sher-
man will remain in camp all
winter looking after the man
agement of the property. The
company is sinking a shaft as
rapidly as possible, and at the
same time driving ahead in the
tunnel with double shifts.
In the Coupon, owned by
Mclean & Moon, they have
recently cut fine body of
free-milling ore in their 200
foot tunnel. The paystreak
shows a width of 3 feet, some
of which is rich. The strike is
considered of great import
ance, and arrangements are be-
ing made for millingmachinery.
The Empire, recently bond
ed by P.Hannaford and In.
Smith, is about to be sold to
Lewiston and St.Paul parties.
The ledge is ~ feet of free
milling ore, and was uncovered
in the early days of placer mi
ming and gives promise of pay
ing from the grass roots. A
contract has been let to sink a
5o.foot shaft by 3 shifts to de.
termine for the benefit of the
prospective buyers the merits
of the property.
The Free Coinage is located
on the Saline river, s miles
from Florence. In the face of
their 218-foot tunnel a 1o.inch
vein Of fine free-milling ore has
just been struck, averaging $40
per ton. The tunnel will be
driven ahead and preparations
made for STOPPING.
|. N. and Lon Smith have
been busy for some time past
on map showing up the claims
of the district. 1t will be lith-
ografed and willinclude a short
history of the camp, distances
from various camps and mode
of travel.
The Oldest pioneer, the ar
gonaut of 81, is unable to ac-
count for the fine open winter
we have had SO for. In former
years the snow at this time has
usually been 6 or 8 feet deep,
while now it is 2 feet and the
sun shining bright and warm.
The road is in splendid condi.
ton, of which the merchants
are taking full advantage in
laying in large stocks before
the spring breakup.

This decision was fastened by
two important notifications re-

company that the cable is closed
and will not be opened again. The
other was formal notice from the

ed its taking messages from Cuba
except those addressed to the
Spanish government.
The strategy committee unani-
mously recommended that a war
ship be sent to San Tiago, to take
up the French cable there and
bring away a mile of it's length.
Very grave concern has been caused
at the navy department by the in
formation that the Almirante
Oquendo and Vizcaya have left
Porto Rico for an unknown desti-
nation. It is believed they are
bound for Cape Verde Islands.
Efforts are being made to obtain
confirmation of this presumption
and dispatches were at once sent
to Commodore Schley and to the
fleet at Key West.
Capt. Sampson is expected to
send vessels out for picket service

Spain Determined to Upholl Her Rights
as Nation
HURRYING PREPARATIONS FOR WAR

Madrid, April 13-At / o'clock
this morning special meeting of
the Spanish cabinet was called
War credits were granted includ-
ing large sum for the completion
OF army preparations in Porto
Rico.
A synopsis of the Presidents
message was read and an official
note Immediately issued in which
was declared the opinion of the
cabinet that the strange meddling
attitude expressed by President
Mckinley is incompatible with
the sovereignty and rights of the
Spanish nation.
These rights admit of no inter-
ference by any other nation.
The council deems it inexpedi-
ent to make any further declara-
ton except to express in the most
solemn manner its unalterable de-
termination to uphold the rights
of the nation.
Until the American Congress OF
President Mckinley takes definite
steps to enforce the doctrine ex-
pressed in the message, the gov
ernment will await further devel-
opments with calmness and defend
with energy the sacred interests Of
Spain by the patriotism of the
Spanish race-so the note con,
cludes.
The ministers of war and the
navy recounted the progress made
with preparations for war and il
was determined to push them to-
wards completion with all possible
energy.

VESSELS TO START ON PICKET DUTY

Washington, April 13-The ar
rival of Gen. Lee and his advice
to the Democratic leaders has had
the effect of changing their deter
mination as to action in Congress.
Gen. Lee has strongly advised
against the recognition of the
present revolutionary Cuban gov
ernment AS consequence har-
mony between the Republicans
and Democrats was expected.
The report and accompanying
resolution of the committee on
foreign relations of the Senate was
in part as follows:
WHEREAS, an abhorrent condition
has existed for more than three
years in Cuba, which has shocked the
moral sense of the United States and
been disgraceful to Christian civilization,
humiliated as we have been by the des-
truction of United States ship during
time of peace, this condition cannot be
longer endured, as set forth by the Pres
ident In his message of April IL, upon
which some action by Congress was in
vited, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, 1st.-That the people OF
Cuba are and of right ought to be free
and independent.
2nd.-That it is the duty of the United
States to demand and does demand that
the government of Spain shall at once
relinquish its authority and government
in the island of Cuba and withdraw its
land and naval forces from Cuba.
3rd.-That the President is hereby
directed and empowered to use the entire
land and naval forces of the United
States and to call into service the militia
of the several states to such extent as
may be necessary to carry this resolu-
ton into effect.
The resolution as reported to
the House is as follows:
1t is hereby resolved that the President
be and is hereby directed to intervene at
once in the island of Cuba for the pur-
pose of stopping the war between the
government of Spain and the inhabitants
of Cuba, of restoring peace and order
and establishing suitable and indie
pendent government of their own by the
free action of the people. And the
President is hereby authorized and en-
powered to use the army and navy OF
the United States for the purpose OF
carrying out the objects of this joint
resolution.
The preamble recites the facts
leading up to the present crisis.

cable to Havana ceased to work.
At IL a. m. it is still impossible

The cause of the stoppage is un-

Intense excitement prevails over
this fact. Fears are entertained
