In July 1894, George Overheiser in

ilOverheiser died in 1896, the policy then

THE TREATY RATIFIED
Receives the Necessary Two-Thirds' Vote ir
the United States Senate.
THE VOIE57 FORTO 27 AGAINST
The Most Important and Exciting Measure
That Has Come Before That Body
in Many Years-The Presi-
dent Much Gratified.

The peace treaty, which formally
concludes hostilities between the
United States and Spain, was ratified
by the United States senate at Wash
ington last Monday by q vote Of 81
for and 81 against, being one more
than the necessary two-thirds-Sena-
tors Carter and Mantle both voting
for it, 1t was the most important vote
taken in the senate since the silver
purchasing clause. of the Sherman law
was repealed, and the result is very
gratifying to the government. The
question at Issue was one of moment
Gus importance, and much anxiety had
been caused by the uncertainty which
attended the matter. The news Of the
attack made by the insurgenu forces
upon the American troops at Manila
last Sunday no doubt contributed its
share of influence upon the senators,
and several who would have otherwise
opposed the ratification of the treaty
voted in favor of it. The news of the
ratification was conveyed to the white
house Immediately, and the president
expressed himself as being much graf
flied at the result. Shortly after, the
secretary of the senate appeared at the
white house and delivered the treaty to

the supply of water in the reservoir
was very short, and called attention to
the fact that in case of u fire the city
would have no protection whatever,
since what little water is in the pipes
would be exhausted in very short
time and the pressure would not be
sufficient to do any good. Mr.. Bot
scheider stated that the water had
been measured repeatedly and the in
flow at the reservoir varied from ten to
thirteen inches. The water in the
reservoir had gradually diminished un-
til only foot of water and about two
feet of mud remained.
Mayor Boyd informed the council
that the water company hadm ade ar.
rangements with the Hope Mining
company to connect the Hope water
mains with those of the city. and that
the Hope water was turned into the
city water mains last Sunday.
Mr.. Botscheider replied that he Wis
tied the reservoir about O'Clock
Monday afternoon and found it nearly
empty, so that the gravel could be
seen.
After some further discussion the
matter was dropped.
There being no other business the
council adjourned.

THE GRANITE-BIMETALLIC co.
EXTENSIVE OPERATIONS BEING CAR
ON RIGHT ALONG.
Work of Connecting the Granite at the
14OO-Foot Level With the Sime-
tallic- Mining Notes.

A report contained in one of the Hell
ena papers few days ago to the effect
that the Granite -Bimetallic Co. mines
at Philipsburg had closed down is abso-
lutelv false and no foundation whatever
exists for such rumor The work OF
getting the mines in shape for more eX-
tensive operations is steadily progressing
and favorable results are being accom-
plished. The work of driving the drain
tunnel, which will tap the Granite mine
at the 14OO-foot level. is somewhat inter
fering with the mining Of ore, and a
sufficient supply to keep the B1metalllc
mill running to its full capacity has not
been taken out during the past week or
ten days. For this reason over half OF
the mill has been closed down, which
resulted in the laying off of few men.
The water is being pumped from the
Granite mine as fast as it can be done
and the connection between the two
mines will soon be made Several
weeks, however, will yet be required to
complete this work and until that time
no material change will take place.
A great deal Of repairing is necessary in
the timbering of the mines especially
in the Granite, which has been filled
with water since the summer of 1893,
and the force of miners to be employed
will not be quite as large in the begin
ming as some may expect, but will be
increased gradually as conditions war
rant. That the company intends tC
operate on an extensive scale is eviden,
from the fact that large wood contracts
have been awarded and the vast amount
of money already expended in repairing
the mill, constructing tramways, re
timberine the mines, and pumping the
water from the Granite, which is, in it
self, no small undertaking. If the com
pany did not contemplate to operate it,
mines on large scale, thousands o.
dollars of good hard money would no
have been expended in putting th'
mines in shape for work, and any rnmo
of shutdown may be promptly &C
cepted as being without any foundation
whatever.
