Manager P. McCann reports an output
Of 427 cars or 1929 tons Of ore from that
company's mines on Quartz Hill for the
month OF June. For nine days during
June only 80 miners we're employed,
pending solution of 8-hour question by
the mill men of Black Hawk, where all
the ore from the property is treated.
The laying off of 100 OF the employees of
his company was to prevent the tieing
up OF large amount Of mill dirt which
forms the greatest portion Of the values
taken from the property monthly,
should the mill employees have quit work.
Compared with the preceding month the
falling off in the output for June was
only 43 cars or 1855 tons. Now that the
full force of miners are at work the ton
mage output for the present month will
be up to it's former standard should no
accident intervene.

largest total to the one herein reported
for the fiscal year ending Friday,
June 30. OF this figure $40, ,456 ,594. 10 in
gold, and s22,826.51 in silver, was credited
to Colorado mines, while districts foreign
to Colorado, such as Alaska, Arizona,
Mexico, Nevada, New Mexico, Utah,
South Dakota and Wyoming, con-
tributed s674,62564 in gold and s4,s64.53

In other words, of the total gold re-

Denver branch mint, fraction over 3
per cent. was credited to outside sources,
leaving 81 per cent. for the Colorado
mines. When coinage is established in

Denver. 81. r. Quimby, who has mining
claims in the Sugar Loaf Mining district
Boulder county, has received notifca

be worth several hundred thousand

rushing down in torrents from the hill

to wade up to our armpits, holding our

when we reached the dilapidated old
fort we fell in with the outpost of the
Cubans in front of San Juan. We were
told that, two or three days previous
to our arrival, the Spaniards had evac-

This was the day after the battle with
the rough riders, in which, being rout-

about two miles in the rear.

him on the steps.
"It's mutiny, siri" was the angry re-
ply. "Wait till get my pistol, and I'll

The captain looked about him in sur

deck, and the whole matter was mex

thought which found ample justifca-

"Mutiny?" he repeated, contemptu-

Gradually the wind died out, until the
Seabird lay becalmed, rising and fall

clear. The barometer continued to fall
in an alarming manner. and after an
hour the heat became oppressive.
Then from all quarters of the horizos
a mass of white clouds arose, until they
presented the appearance of huge
mountains of snow. darkening as they
ascended, and massing together until
they formed canopy overhead, en-
tirely concealing the blue sky above.
Soon they deepened until the whole
heavens were solidly black, as If coy-
cred with folds of velvet. In a few
places, however, the color seemed to
vary TO a dark, purplish gray. as one
