STATE WILL HAVE TO BORROW.
GOV. GAMBLER MUST NEGOTIATE 4
LOAN FOR S2OO.OOO.

FINDS Himself in the Same Fix GOV
Atkinson Was in n Year Ago
state Tax Returns VIII Probably
Not show an Increase of More
Than $4,000. OOO-In That Event the
states Deficiency May Run Up ia
About S25O,OOO.
Atlanta. Aug. 4-Gov. Gambler is goins
10 find that he will have to follow in the
footsteps of Gov. Atkinson and borrow
500 900 to tide the state over in its hnan-
cial distress next fall.
The friends of the former Governor are
already chuckling over the predicament
facing the present executive, and their
glee is intensified because Of Gov. Cand-
Ier's repeated utterances on the stump IN
the last campaign that taxation mus, be
reduced and that the people were over
burdened with the exactions made upon
them TO support the Atkinson regime.
Now the Atkinson cohorts are laughing
In their sleeves at the fix the Governor
finds himself in. thanks to the legislature
which refused TO listen 90 his advice, and
the 'I-told-you-sos' are as thick as black
birds in rice field.
Nine Counties Heard From.
Nine more counties made tax returns to-
day. and the increase is still in the four
million column Controller General
Wright now says he thinks the net Increase
will be less than $1,000, 000, and that 5000,
600 viii be nearer the mark.
The general tax levy made by the legis-
Iature last fall was SIP mills and the
sinking fund .26 mills, making total Of
53s mills. There were 100000 returned
last year. Col Wright at first estimated
that there would be 1924 0O0,O 900 this year.
but he now thinks his estimate will fall
short 100000. At his first estimate of
$424 100000 he figured out a deficit in the
state revenue of a little over $500 600, and
with the 100000 falling short, that would
run che deficit UP to about $25OOOO. That
means that the Governor must borrow the
$4,000. the limit which the constitution
allows, and stin the state win stand in
need of $4,000 more to meet its need.
VIII Have to Raise Tax Levy.
In discussing the situation to-day Con-
troller General Wright said that the leg
islature at its fall session would have to
raise its tax levy for next year, and cut
off some of the appropriations or there
would recur again next year a shortage
of 100000, making in all 100000
If there is a cut it viii take off $20O,0O
of the school fund, reducing it to $500, 600,
or 100000 lower than the cut of the as
sembly last fall If that is done the school
people Will raise a howl from one end of
the state to the other
If the tax levy is increased both the
politicians and the people will rise In pro-
test and when the next campaign comes
on Gov. Gambler will be blamed just as
Gov. Atkinson was, for a state of things
for which the legislature should get the
criticism.
The nine counties reporting tax returns
to-day show net increase of a little
over a third of a million Ten-elevenths
of this was made by one county alone,
that of Decatur, the increased return being

is at the McDermott. He is mere with d
shipment of ore from the Bell, when IS u
continuation of the famous Clipper VEN,
and a car load of high grade ore from
the Clipper group, owned by hliihS ~
Morris. Mr.. McKaskle is very much pleas
ed with Pony results of the past season
and the indications that promise an ac-
tive year in his section. Thu Clipper, he
saws. never looked better. The owners
have a force of men doing development
work, and as this work is being prose-
cuted with an Ingersoll drill plant, much
is being done. 1t is the intention OF the
owners, with the coming spring, to break
ground for a 40-stamp concentrating mill,
which is to be erected near the mines ana
will be furnished with power from an
electric plant. on Willow creek, which
was completed some time last fall, and
which has furnished power for the drill
plant and lights the prosperous little
camp. which is growing day by day with
the development of the mines surround
ing it. The power will have to be trans
mitted about one and one-half miles.
The new mill will treat TIE low grade ores,
the higher grade being shipped to East
Helena. The old mill. which has done
duty many years, will do custom work IN
the future.
The Garnet people, who have a large
low grade property have a force OF men
blocking out ore for treatment next sea-
son. Their mill is run by water power,
and they ore unable to treat their ores
during the winter season. During the
warmer months they treat about sixty
tons daily. This mill was built about two
years ago, and is owned by St. Louis cap
~italists. One of the heaviest stockholders
in the concern was a man who knew
nothing of mining but had made a for
tune out of an invention of his OWn-a
brick and bone crushing machine. He in
sisted that his bone crusher, which oper-
ated on the principle of a threshlng ma
chine with a series of small hammers on
a revolving cylinder in place of teeth,
would crush the Garnet ore, and as he
had much money in the venture and was
one of the directors, the manager was
forced to give him a trial, we'll knowing
what the result would be. The mill was
built with the idea of replacing the Done
crusher with stamps. if a trial demon
strated its impractibility. When the mill
was completed the directors come out
from St. Louis to see the start. The ore
was feed in and the bone crusher lasted
about Il minutes. Later a set of stamps
We're installed with satisfactory results.

A.. C. WHITES WILL
The Widow of Deceased OBJ
jectS to Its Probate
BEQUEATHS HER ONLY $500
She Alleges There is Something
Wrong--Has a Special Admin
istratcr Appointed.
BEQUEATHS HER ONLY $500

Judge Clancy today appointed J. P. Col
Inns special administrator of the estate
of A. c. White, who died in this city
January 4 of this year. The appointment
was brought about by the widow of the
dead man, who petitioned the court for
it. In her document she set forth some
rather peculiar allegations in regard to
the estate. She stated that her husband
had died leaving property valued at from
S., 900 to $4,000, a large part of which
consisted of hardware, paints, glass and
general merchandise, at 1928 South Main
street; that one Frank Britton, who man
aged the business of deceased during his
life time, filed a petition in court for the
probate of a will alleged to have been left
by White and for his own appointment
as executor of the estate; that by the
terms of the alleged will she, the widow
of the deceased, %purports to have been
~bequeathed $500 and no more, while the
great bulk of the estate, amounting, as
she believed, to more han 81, 200, %purports
to nave been b%equeathed to the said
Frank Britton.
Continuing, Mrs. White further alleges
SASN NAN NDA If NNi
White during the lifetime of the latter
and as such employee is entitled to receive
such an amount of wages as it may APP
pear remain due and unpaid: that the
said Britton was not in any way related
to the deceased, and by the laws of sue
cession would not be entitled to receive
any sum of money or other property
whatever from said estate; that she, the
petitioner, in order to protect her tights
in the premises, would be compelled to
and would contest the probate Of the al
legged will and would oppose the appoint
ment of Britton as the executor of the
estate; that all the property of the estate
is snow in the hands of Britton and the
petitioner believes and SO alleges that IL
the said alleged will of the decedent was
ever executed by White that such eXecu-
ton was procured by the undue ana
fraudulent influence of Britton and not
otherwise: that the best interests of the
estate requires that the property be taken
from the custody of BrittOn.
A copy Of the alleged will accompanies
the petition. 1t is dated August II, 1898,
is witnessed by William c. Kelly, j. II.
Kupfer and G. F. S~turtevant, and sworn
to before James Brown, a notary pupllc.

THE COPPER TRUST.

1t is believed that the name of the
new copper combination upon which H.
H. Rogers of the Standard Oil company
and Mr.. A. G. Burrage of the Arcadian
Copper Mining company are at work will
be the American Copper company, and
that it will be incorporated in New Jer-
sey, but still nothing has been absolutely
settled, and it may be many weeks, if
not months or years, before the combina-
ton takes fiXed form, says the Boston
News Bureau.
One thing, however, we are assured Of
and that is that a paper capital of $780,
COCO 0 is contemplated, and that there
will be very many millions of shares and
a low market price in order that the
public may not appear to be far from the
ground-floOr.
1t Is believed that Mr.. A. G. Burrage
will take the place of Mr.. Lewiston as
the leading copper selling agent in the
United States, and it is declared that this
will be one of the main economies, and
that in the aggregate the economies,
whether reached in reduced railroad
rates, reduced miners wages or reduced
selling agents commission, will in the
aggregate amount to So, 1000, 600 per an
num-, and that this can be capitalized fol
$1GG, 900, 600. A large measure of this
$100, 000, eco will of course be absorbed by

in BASIN DISTRICT,

The work is still progressing favorably
in the Hope shaft, which has now reached
a depth of about SIS feet below the 500
foot level, says the Basin Progress.
anne Madden is still leasing on the
famous Little Mantle mine, on Cataract
creek, with fairly good results.
1t is reported that Messrs. David H.
ONeal and John Largent nave about
completed arrangements for taking a
lease on the Buster mine.
w. H. Burgess, the well known mining
man, who is associated with Messrs.
Lyon & Sherlock in the development of
the First Shot mine, on Cataract creek,
reports that their 200 feet of shaft work
is now practically completed and that
they will soon commence shipping ore.
Some fine looking ore has been encoun-
tered in this mine, much of it assaying
as high as $500 to the ton.
Messrs. Farmer & Weston are still
shipping considerable ore to the smelters
at Butte from the Mary Ann, although
they say that the mine is not looking sc
we'll as it did awhile back. They are
however, gong right ahead with a large
amount of development work, and evi.
IDENTIFY have faith that the property will
ultimately turn into a great mine.

THE COPPER MARKET,

Engineering and Mining Journal: The
market continues on it's upward course,
and has this week again scored large ad-
vances. For early deliveries producers
are now fully sold up, and very heavily
sold for future months Prompt copper
is unobtainable. Manufacturers report
an excellent business doing at the higher
prices. Lake copper has been sold at Ice.
and there are no more sellers at that
price. Sales at 16Ac. and 161ac. nave been
rumored, but we have been unable as yet
to verify these reports. Electrolytic cop
per has sold at 151ac. for cakes, wirebars
and ingots; 15Ac. for catholics, with cast
ing copper nominal at 15@151sc.
In London the market opened with an
advance of go los. above last weeks
closing figures. On Monday it was a66
1Os., on Tuesday f66 15s., on Wednesday
1t advanced to SGT 5s. and On Thursday to
SCI los. On that day, under very heavy
sales by speculative holders, the market
declined 15s., to SGT, but closes somewhat
firmer today at G67 IS. Cd. The volume
of transactions was tremendous. There
! has been a good inquiry from abroad for
refined kinds, and we quote: English

to tell it the man had reached into the
window of the shop, taken a bolt of cloth
and was running away with it outside.
The policeman called upon him to stop,
but ne refused to comply. He consented,
however, to drop the cloth. The officer

The defendants wife stated that on the
evening before her husbands arrest he
