Purchase Of Ground by the
Anaconda Company.
LITIGATION TO FOLLOW
1t IS Claimed That it Contains the
Apex of the COluSa-ParrOt
Lode Claim.

1t is reported on what seems to b. good
authority that Cyrus Symons. who con-
ducts a boarding house in Dublin gulch.
has sold to the Anaconda all
his property for the sum of $40, 600.
Mr.. Symons property consists of the
surface right to some lots near the rail-
way crossing just north of the Parrot
mine, and the buildings erected thereon.
The lots and buildings could be purchas-
ed for a few thousand dollars, but it is
said that on the property is an apex
which will cut a very important figure
in the mining litigation between the An
aconda and Collsa-Parrot properties.
Mining men who are supposed to be
we'll versed in such matters claim that
the new purchase will open up another
chapter of mining law suits in the COM
munlty. The Anaconda people are con
fdent they have made a ten-strike in the
purchase of the Symons' property, and
claim they have the apex of the Colusa-
Parrot lode claim. MI. Symons' proper
ty is on the Oden claim. the mining title
of which is owned by the Amalgamated
Copper company. 1t is understood that
some interesting developments will fol-
low in a few days. The parties to the
deal, for purposes We'll understood by
themselves. have been e~ndeavoring to
keep the matter quiet for several days.

day. During the taking of the testi-
mony the fact was brought out that the
young man was an expert chemist. Dr..
Sheeran was of the opinion that Shannon
died of narcotic poisoning. and DR..
Campbell, while satisfied that death was
due to poisoning. said that the drug taken
was no ordinary poison, but some power
full agent of which young Shannon had
knowledge.
The young lady in whose presence
Shannon fell testified to the circum-
stances as previously published. How
ever. she said Shannon did not say, as he
sat down on the sofa. Il have come here
to die but remarked that he was very
tired. and the next instant fell.
Fred shannon, a brother of the dead
boy. testified that he was in Bozeman
when he received the news of his broth
er's death. Letters he had received lately
were in a cheerful vein and nothing was
written that would indicate dependency.
He also testified that he had understood
that his brother was in the habit of tax
ing bromo-chloral. and he was of the
opinion that his brother had taken an
overdose.
The verdict was to the effect that
shannon had died from the effects OF an
unknown drug, taken With suicidal IN
tent.

IN POLICE COURT
Billy O'ROurke Assaulted OFF,
Ger John COnlOn.
WAS EXPENSIVE FUN
Many Offenders Were in Judge
Sullivan'S Court This
Morning.

Probably the man who enjoyed Labor
day more than anyone else was Billy
ORourke, a big burly miner. who slories
IN his strength and on whom fighting
whisky has a bad effect. Years ago Of
ficer Jack Conlon worked in the same
mine with him and an enmity arose be-
tween the tWo men. Yesterday O'Rourke
drank long and deep. and was looking
for trouble when he met Conlon. The
cloth Of the, policeman cut little figure
with im-he was looking for the man.
He told Conlon that he could whip his
weight in wild eats and made a speciality
of policemen. He then proceeded to DEM
onstrate that he was in earnest. Conlon
had a shade the best of the battle until
some of O.Rourke's friends interfered.
and Conlon would have been roughly
handle but for the timely interference
of EN-Officer John Dougherty, who
knocked several of O'Rourke's friends
out of the way and assisted Conlon to
take O'Rourke to Jail. O'Rourke pleaded
guilty in police court this morning and
was fined $50.
John S. O'Brien INC Jack Burns, two
fighting race horse men. pleaded not
guilty and will be tried Friday.

THE COPPER MARKET.

Boston News Bureau: Mr.. Leonard
Lewisohn, the largest metal broker in
this country, has been in Boston this
week. When asked as to the probable
future course of copper, Mr.. Lewisohn
replied that no mar was sufficiently wise
to guage the market price of the metal
beyond six months. Mr.. Lewisohn be-
may shade off from present figures, but
is rather inclined to look for a fairly stea-
dy market for the next six months.
A leading copper producing interest
says: 1T is foolish trying to predict the
future price of copper for too many con-
ditions underlie it. A man may be able
to form a reasonable opinion regarding
the OF copper but he cannot
possibly tell what factors may arise max
ing for an increase or decrease of con-
sumption. Personally, l do not believe
the production of copper in 1900 will ex-
ceed by more thai 5 per cent. the produc-
ton of 1899. rs to consumption no man
living can form any satisfactory calcu-
lations.
IF England enters into a war in the
IralSVaal 1t would unGuestiOnably pre-
vent the inflow of gold from South Afri-
ca. AS a result England might sell
American securities and gold might be
exported from the United States. All
this would probably tend to restrict en-
terprlse here and the consumption OF
copper might fall off. This would have
the same effect as if production of cope,
increased heavily.
"On the other hand an exnansion IF on,
industrial situation would make for a
still larger consumption of the metal
Until, therefore, the future IAN be rea6

Secretary of the Butte & Bingham Cop
per Mining Company, Butte. Mont:
Dear Sir-Owing to the many inquiries
sent to me by parties claiming 10 be in
terested in the Butte & Bingham COM
pany stock, and as | have been unable
to answer inteliigently such inquiries
without making an examination OF your
company's properties, ] therefore called
on your superintendent, Mr.. Roberts,
and. with his permission, have made a
thorough investigation Of the Xxi
of your west and east tunnels. and ] give
it as my honest opinion that you have a
fine property. The tunnel on the west
side of Car Fork creek is looking fine
lots of ore in sight. The vein is all hat
could be desired and it will be a big
ore producer. There is already consider
erable ore on the dump that has been
extracted in developing this large lead,
and the ore in this large vein is perma-
nent. | also find that you have a cross
yssn that shows UP very good ana con-
slider it worth prospecting. Your lower
workings on the east side, near the
creek, show a god many steaks of good
ore, and everything indicates that you
nave a good thing in depth. / would sug-
gest getting down on the large vein,
which you have on the west SIDE on the
Mirror patented claim, by running a
tunnel in on the vein. starting at the
creek level. You would then be several
hundred feet deeper. and that Is, in my
opinion. all you need to become a large
dividend payer. Speaking from my past
experience of this camp. til" west vein
is The one to stick to. Respectively,
