OTIS HAS 10000 MEN.
eiiipinos' Strength 10000 or More Where
d. They Secure Ammunition?

Washington. March 26-Full conf
dcnce is felt in the judgment and abil-
ity of Gen. Otis, and it is believed that
he has taken the best course possible
in view of the situation. There is no
doubt in the opinion of the officials in
the war department about General Otis
having enough men to carry out his
proposed movement. He has $4,000
men in the Philippines, and of these
$4,000 are in the lines about Manila and
in the reserve in that city. There are
5000 more troops now on the way to
Manila.
The strength of the insurgent forces
is not known here. General Otis some
time ago estimated the total number of
men in Aguinaldo's force at 10000.
Since then he has cabled that he could
not form a reliable estimate of their
number 1t is believed at the war de-
partment that Aguinaldo has had from
the beginning much larger number of
men than he had arms for. and it is
thought that he is able to keep his
fighting lines up to the full number of
rifles that he has at all times. This
accounts for the apparent failure of
the American forces to greatly dimin-
ish the number of Filipinos.
Officials here are much interested in
finding out where Aguinaldo gets his
supply of ammunition from. They be-
leve that he must have had a large
supply at the beginning of hostilities or
that he is receiving supplies from some
source which General Otis and Admiral
Dewey have not been able to discover
1t will not surprise the officials here if
they find when the final surrender
comes that there are a considerable
number of adventurous European off
GERS serving with Aguinaldos troops.

ONE YEAR IN TINTIc.
Marvellous New Activity In the Dis
trict In Twelve Months.
(Snecial Correspondence.l

NSpcClal t-OTTeSpOlueQC6.J
Robinson, Sept. 27.-Never before has
there been such general activity all
through the Tintic country. It is true
that no important ore strikes have
been made in any of the mines recent
~, and yet several have grown from
hattering prospects" to mineral pro-
ducers and shippers since spring with
out any great flourish of trumpets. But
the noticeable feature is the extensive
and broad guage methods employed on
all sides in working. Something like
a fair estimate can be made and under
stood of the rapid strides taken by the
folks in the south end of Tintic, when
one stops to consider what has been
done since a year ago today. Aside
from the two Swanseas, how many
hoists were in operation south of their
shaft houses, one year ago this time?
Could you count them on your one
hand? Yes. And have three fingers
left Today ''in the porphyry," there
are, working and ordered, twenty nine
hoistS. OF course that computation
does not include the lime district on
east and north of the SwanSeaS where
double that number are in operation
Coincident with the increased mining
and of course wholly dependent ON their
ultimate success has been the phenom-
attractive and beautiful homes have
been built in Eureka this year than in
any other one year in the towns his
tory, and the same rapid growth is no.
ticeable in Robinson, Mammoth, Silver
City and Diamond. The last-named
place has just completed a comnodi-
Gus and well appointed school house.
The one in Silver has been remodeled
and an addition built on equaling the
size of the building originally-and the
one midway between Robinson and
Mammoth is so crowded that two pri-
vate schools have been opened.
All lines of commercial business show
the same conditions of activity. There
is a scarcity of experienced miners, sta
tionary engineers and carpenters. Lum-
Der dealers make no pretensions of fill
ing orders promptly. The railroad COM
panies are short on cars to deliver mer-
chandise and correspondingly short
with empties to load ores out, and SO
the wave of unequaled prosperity con-
tinues all through Tintic. Before an
other year rolls around either this To-
cality will surpass all others in Utah
or there will be a sick lot of people and
more scrap iron for sale than one can
find in a days journey.

WORK ON MERcUR MILL.
Material On the Ground and Masons
at Work.

Inside of ninety days from now the
Mercur company's mill at Manning will
be prepared to handle all of 500 tons of
ore per day, and allow the maximum
time for its thorough teaching.
President John Dern VIII leave for
camp this morning to witness the COM
mencement of work upon the founda-
ton of the new structure, which will
be equipped with eight new 140-ton
teaching tanks at the earliest possible
moment Mr.. bern said yesterday that
the grade had been completed, stone
for the foundations had all arrived and
mesons were ready to go to work In
addition, material for the building and
tanks was now being delivered, and he
hoped inside of ninety days to have
the new teaching tanks in operation.
The plant has now eleven tanks in use,
and with the new ones added, Mr..
Dern says, they hope to put through
600 tons of crude ore every twenty-four
Hours and obtain better product, if
possible, by allowing the ore to remain
longer in the teaching solution. The
mill is now handling in the neighhor-
hood of 400 tons, and with a good 200
tons on tons Of that the stockholders
will probably be surprised early in the
new year with an announcements that
monthly. instead of quarterly, divi-
dends will be paid. ft-

strength, the effect of the dividend

There were plenty of brokers anxious
for the stock and bidders were on the

and was in demand from $1.36 up to
$1.39. Daisy was a shade better and

excellent physical condition and divi-

is apparent, however, that none of the
insiders are buying unless they get the
stock at away down prices, and it
seems that the attempt Ito bear the
market by one of the officers of the
company not long ago, has caused a
nervousness among some of the smaller
holders. South Swansea was a shade
lower and Martha Washington declined
