The Regular Bullion Shipments.

Twenty-Five bars of bullion We're
shipped from the Bimetallic mill last
Saturday. The bullion shipments are
now a regular weekly occurrence, and
in quantity have nearly reached the
amount usually shipped previous to the
crash. but considerable difference is
found in the value of the bullion of then
and now, as the present price of silver
is only about half of what it was worth
during the early history of the Granite
and Bimetallic mines.

Passes Away at Webster
Grove. Mn

WHEELING, w. VA, Feb. 1s-News
was received here to-day Of the sudden
death from paralysis at Webster Grove,
Mo-. of A. w. Campbell, OF this city, one of
the founders of West Virginia, and one Of
the proprietors Of the Wheeling Intelli-
gencer. and until few years ago its edi-
tor. Since his retirement from active
newspaper life Mr.. Campbell has lived in
quiet, and never would accept a public Of
nee. though frequently offered the United
States senatorship. -.
1t was in the Republican national con-
yention of 1850 that Mr.. Campbell. in his
fight against the unit rule, became famous
by reason of a speech in which he scored
Roscoe Conkling. the leader of the Grant
forces. His speech on this occasion won
not add to his fame In this state. From a
poor boy he became owner and editor of
the Intelligencer, and was one of the great
est editorial writer's of his day. He be-
came interested in nail mills. and for some
years has been worth over 100000.

The general opinion seems to be that a
