Information was received in Butte last
evening hat the deal for the sale of 1885,
600 shares of the Parrot had been CON-
summated and that the stock would be
turned over tomorrow to the Standard
Oil people, the new purchasers. There is
every reason to believe that the deal has
been made, as Mr.. R. D. Grant, the gen.
eral manager of the Parrot, after his re-
turn from the east stated that such a deal
was in progress.
There was little change in the stock
market today, Parrot showing some fur

as a motive power will have supplanted

civilized country on the globe.
statistics show that during the last
20 years the worlds copper production
has increased from 1876 900 tons to 425, 900,
or an increase of 270, 900 tons, of which
2lO,O0O were supplied by the United
States, leaving only 1000 tons increase
from all other parts of the globe.
AT the present time the total visible
supply is only about $4,000 tons, showing
That the demand for the metal has been
in excess of the supply. There is still a
question whether with all the develop
ment OF our copper mining resources. the
output VIII more than keep pace with the
demand In any case. our copper mines
give every promise of being among the
most valuable of our mining possessions"
notwithstanding the renewal of
strength in the metal market. copper
mining shares have continued to be
neglected throughout the week. Prices
nave recovered only slightly from the
lowest point touched in the reaction, and
the market has been dull but fairy
strong. Sentiment, however, is almost
unanimously in favor of higher prices for
Upper stocks, and in the stock market
sentiment usually works itself out in re-
suits.
"A pull on the coppers says: Investors
and spectators, also, should keep the
fact constantly in mind that the average
cost of copper to those who operate the
producing mines is about s cents. The
shares of all of the good copper mining
companies offered in the Boston market
are low at present, as compared with the
ruling prices of railroad and industrial
stocks. This would be true, even if cop
per We're only Il cents per pound. Present
Indications are, however, that the big
profits which producers Of coppe were
making in a II cent copper market are
to be more than doubled for at least one
or two years to come"

an unexpected, sudden and large re-

of trouble on account of not getting

THE COPPER SITUATION.

Boston Financial News: The predicted
squeeze of the shorts in the London con-
per market was administered promptly
at the opening of business last week. AS
was pointed out by the New England
Statist a week ago quotations had beer
down to a point not warrant
ed by existing conditions. The final
quotations of the market for the week
ending March "a, was G66 12s. 3D., which
indicated that G.. M. B.. copper was then
selling in London for u cent a pound less
than it commanded the same day in New
York. A knowledge of the extremely
small visible supplies then existing made
it very plain a the low quotations
could not be maintained. The jump of
co at the opening Monday morning was
a very natural result, and should have
been expected.
The rush of the shorts to cover caused
a return of health to the market, from
which consumers had held aloof during
the decline. Manufacturers who, when
the first sign of weakness appeared, lost
confidence in the high range of prices for
copper came back into the market as
buyers when strength returned. Those
who refused to buy a week & at 17k@
17Ac.- are now frantically bidding 17Ac.
and hiding no copper for sale below 17Ac.
A producer who has a small stock of
spot copper on hand says he is not selling
any ai present. prices. Il eApects 10 sse
the price Of lake go above 1Sc. again in
the very near future. The demand for
lake copper as compared with electricity
tic, has grown steadily stronger during
the week as predicted. Lake is now, ac-
cording to Metal Exchange quotations,
~ cent higher than electrolytic, while a
week ago it led the latter only Il cent.
! A New York despatch says: Lake cop
per continues rather difficult to obtain,
While electrolytic owing to it's being in
apparently sufficient supply for present
demand is from q to 1c. per pound below
the market price Of lake.

pert, T. E. Gaynor, says of the copper
situation:

ent and future of the cope industry is

talions will be Strengthened out again.
On the 23d the insurgents contemplated
a general attack upon our lines and with
in the city. They began by setting fire to
those Chinese furniture stores where we
bought the chairs. l understand a large
section is burnt in there. That was on
the right of the Twenty-second and on
the following day they opened at. long
range upon our lines, wounding thirteen
men of our regiment. including Manches-
ter and Tommy Dunn. l. company was
taken from the trenches and sent in to
assist in depressing the uprising in town
and it was while performing that duty
Lieutenant French was killed. They were
returned to the regiment about b O'CLOCK
and were within the trenches almost
when Tommy was hit. We have scouts out
about four hundred yards in advance dur
ing the day time. On the morning of the
23d we could see them (the enemy come
out of the woods in considerable force
and they were making it particularly
warm for G and D scouts, so at Captain
Wynne's request l sent him out with
eight more men to drive the niggers back.
When he got out there he found a COM
pan deployed in regular order in front
of him and two others ready to advance
from the left. He soon drove the men
back that were in front of him and q
couple of shots from the Utah battery
sent the two companies to cover. 1t was
in the afternoon that Manchester was
wounded. He was in the relief just going
out and had advanced about one hundred
yards when l saw him drop; he is doing
nicely and will not lose any Of his fingers.

got his Mauser. 1t was within fifty yards

In a Floral Realm.

When the writer was boy, getting
his start in the world by setting type,
it frequently fell to his lot to have as
his ''take" an article descriptive of
some beautiful garden in which it
seemed as though all of the arts OF ma
ture and man were blended together
to make one harmonious whole, or to
put in type a story telling how beauti-
full and useful some new-found plant
had proven to be and what a grand
thing it would be to possess one OF
them. Being a lover of plants and
flowers these articles created a desire
to see something of these beautiful
realms the manuscript had told about.
After a little time we became old

81 per Annum, in Advance.

Last year before the frigid air of
North Dakota had swept over this
State, we visited the loyal Palm Nur.
series at Oneco, and saw hundreds of
ornamental, economical and fruiting
plants at their best. Good and proper
cultivation, plenty of plant food and
water had done it's work and the
plants showed it. Strong vigorous bod
les, healthy and we'll developed leaves
silently told of the good care bestowed
OH them. One thing was apparent, that
the views in the Royal Palm catalogue
were not fancy sketches but pictures
from real life. AS we entered the
grounds we came upon a magnificent
Phoenix Ueonensis, whose graceful
branches were bowling as if to bid us

been more carefully studied than any
of the others. We soon found the place
and entered the portals of the green
house. Here we saw row after row OF
glass houses, hot-bed after hOt-bed and
beautiful plants of all kinds growing
in great masses, but no examples of
the "artistic effect or "beautiful clus-
tering" we're to be seen. We asked the
gardener why they did not ''practice
what they preached'' in their cata-
logue. His reply was eve have not
the room to do it, but know what the
plants will do and so tell the people
how to arrange them. We are con-
tent with furnishing the plants" The
visit was an enjoyable one, as we saw
many rare and beautiful plants but

vigorous, trying to cover the naked
ness of the soil. In tomato cans on the
porch were three plants, one a red
geranium with three leaves and tiny
flower stalk which looked as though it
was making one supreme effort to help
beautify the place before it passed
hence. Another contained a few phlox
that would have done vastly better il
left alone in the yard, and the third
can contained a rose cutting that was
making a struggle to brighten the
world by it's green leaves and the un-
folding of a tiny bud. These were the
visions of loveliness that greeted us,
and they were so impressive that we

enough so that we could go away from
home and remain day or two without
getting homesick. One of the first Wis
its made was to the home of an able
writer whose descriptions of plant
growth had more than once sent a tin
gle of delight skating through our
veins, creating a burning desire to see
and know more. After a hard walk
of over four miles through heavy sand,
we came to house surrounded with
a beautiful (D and time worn fence.
The gate had only one hinge and was
held up by a piece of rawhide. Inside

the fact that these beautiful gardens
were only on paper was not relished
These were simply cases of not prac>
tioing what was preached and it made
a lasting impression on our MIND
which has caused us to always make
due allowance for floral efforts and
catalogue descriptions.
Some one has said ''there are ex-
ceptions," and so we have found it, for
in travelling over the State we have
come across many exceptions" and
because they are exceptions they are
all the more enjoyable.

A SERIOUS INJURY.
Man Thrown While At
tempting to Board a
Moving Train.

John Boyle, 81 years old, unmarried,
who resides with his parents on Grand
View avenue, it at the city hospital suf-
fering from a scalp wound and concus-
sion of the brain.
Boyle is an operative in mill at
GAINESVILLE. and yesterday afternoon he
left that place about 4.SO o'clock for his
home in this city. The east bound Bos-
ton q Albany train was pulling out Of
the GAINESVILLE depot when Boyle made
an attempt to swing on to the platform
of the rear car. His hand clasped the
handle, but his feet dangled in the air,
and the force of the shock made him
relinquish his hold.
Boyle was hurled to the tracks OPP
posite those on which the train was
speeding toward Worcester. He landed
in the track on one of the rails, strik-
ing in the middle Of his back. The back
part of his head crashed against one
edge OF a sleeper.
Trainmen in the vicinity of the depot
saw the accident and FASTENED to
Boyle's assistance. He was carried to
the depot, where a physician attended
him, and ordered his removal to Wor-
cester city hospital. The ambulance
met the GA o'clock train at Union
depot and the injured man was removed
to the hospital. Last night it was re-
ported that he was resting comfortably,
but the extent of his injuries could not
be ascertained until he had rested a
few hours.

the states. Our line is thin, also; eight
and ten yards between each man, but
our artillery VIII hold them off, think.
But they have got artillery as well,
modern Krupp guns, too. Our battles
with Spaniards wasn't a patch to our
battles here now. They are better fight
ers than the Spaniards. Each one OF
our battles with the FiliDinos is equal,
if they don't surpass the battles of San
Juan and Ell Caney in Cuba But we are
making trouble for them. We burn
every house and shack we come to. At
night it looks grand.
After we took Calloocan on the 10th
of February we lay for the night little
beyond it and the whole town was in
flames. 1t illuminated the whole valley
around, giving the sky and ground a
dark red color that could be seen for
many miles, and it threw CLEAN on
the dead Filtpinos with their faces to-
ward their Maker that made the most
terrible picture 1 have ever seen.
The other night they broke out in
town and almost burned half the city
down. They had lots of rifles, too; it
was a grand sight. Half the city was
on fire, and it illuminated the other
half, and such firing was never heard
before in the streets Of Manila. The red
light from the fire showed the Filipinos
and our men Tired on them ana Chey re-
turned it and the battle lasted all
night The Filipinos kept setting fire
to the buildings till they were nearly
all killed and wounded. In the morning
there were dead .Filipinos lying all over
the city, but the city was still on fire
They have made threats that they
would burn the city over our heads and
came very near doing it that night 1t
was the worst fight right here in the
streets of Manila that has occurred for
many a year out here. In the firing line

PATRICK sHeA's CASE.
Petitioner to Be Given Another Hearing
Before Committee on Claims.


Before Committee on Claims.
The committee of conference on the
part of the city council appointed two
weeks ago to make a recommendation
on the claim of Patrick Shea for the
refunding of money paid in excess of
what he should lawfully pay, met last
night and voted to recommend that the
course adopted by the common council
be recommended.
The grounds upon which the claim is
based, is that Shea went to the office
Of the city treasurer last year and paid
his taxes. When he arrived home the
discovery was made that his finances
failed to balance within $13.29. He re-
turned to the treasurer's office and
stated his grievance, saying that he
thought he must have overpaid his bill.
The cash balance at the close of bust
ness failed to develop any such dis
crepancy, however, and there was
nothing to show that the amount miss
ing had been received at the treasurer's
office
The claim was brought subsequently
and finally came down to this years
committee on claims. The committee
recommended leave to withdraw. which
was the voice of the aldermen when the
report came before that board. The
common council voted to recOmmit in
non-concurrence and asked for a com
mittee of conference.
The committee included Aldermen
Wall, Huot and Kendall on the part Of
the board of aldermen, and Councilmen
Meagher Lancaster and Johnson on
the part of the lower board. The COM
mittee voted to sustain the action of the
lower board, recommending that the
petitioner be given another hearing be-
fore the present committee on claims.
