ceeding $1,000 900 pounds month.
Sunday thirty cars Of merchandise were
standing on side tracks, waiting to be un.

The same day twenty-five four horse
teams and wagons arrived here from one
camp In this district, to load freight for

MORE SPOKANE MONEY.
Blue Jacket Group Of Mines Sold and viii
be Developed.

&c. McGuigan, of Spokane, who has
beon identified with many Of the largest
mining interests thereabouts, particularly
In the SLOGAN district Of British Columbia,
has been In Sumpter the past week, for
the second time within few months. He
has negotiated the purchase for himself
and Henry Sieffert, another Spokane min.
ing operator, OF the Blue Jacket group Of
claims, consisting Of the Blue Jacket, In.
dependence, First Chance and the Idaho,
all situated within quarter Of mile
west Of the well known lbex mine ,..and
being continuation Of that lode.
These claims were discovered and To-
Gated the past season and have only the
assessment work done upon them as yet,
but their location being an ideal one for
development, and the fact that they are of
easy access to the Granite wagon road,
only three or four miles away, makes the
new owner, Mr.. McGuigan, who Is a
keen observer of long experience In min.
ing matters, think he has prize In the
new properties secured. It is his purpose
to Immediately begin extensively develop.
ing the group and bringing out their hid.
den treasures as fast as men and money
can consummate this end. To accomplish
this he has secured as his representative
to put In full charge, r. J. McPhee, a
superintendent and mine manager Of long
and tried experience.
At this writing II can only be said that
the favorable location Of the claims, to-.
gether with intended development on
them will probably result In the making
Of valuable mines at later day and will
be watched with much interest.
Eugene Sperry, e. Sanderson Smith
and r. J. MePhee worked up the deal and
consummated the sale.

Britannia.

COWES. July 19.-There was beautiful
weather today for the trial of the yacht
Shamrock, challenger for the America
cup. against the Britannia There were
big crowds, both ashore and atloat, to
witness the race. The course today was
Yesterdays course reversed. The start
ing point was off the Royal Yacht Squad
ron's house, around the SOlent bank
buoy. thence to the Nab ughtship, finish
ing at the Spit buoy off Portsmouth.
The Prince of Wales boarded the Bri-
tannta shortly before the start.
There was a good southeasterly breeze
blowing all the morning, but it softened
considerably towards the time for the
starting of the race. Both yachts carried
club topsails. A good start was eff
fected at 1912 a. M, the Shamrock cross
ing the line half a length ahead of her
competitor being very smartly handled
She had a new spinnaker set for the
run to the Solent bank. Her sails seemed
to set better than yesterday.
The breeze died out as the yachts stood
along shore, and the boats housed their
spinnakers. The Shamrock then headed
for the center Of the channel to avoid
becoming becalmed on the lee Of the
island. The Britannia followed. There
was but little air and the yachts prac-
tically drifted during the next half hour
The breeze then revived, and the Sham
rock which, meanwhile, had slightly in
creased her lead, secured q start widen
ing the gap that separated her from the
Britannia and rounded the Solent bank
buoy at n:f7:E0. The Britannia rounded
the buoy at II :21:35.
The boats returned close hauled on the
port tack. There was only the faintest
breeze and the Britannia was getting the
best Of 1t, slightly reducing the gap.
Nearing Cowes, however, the breeze
freshened considerably ard the beat to
the Nab lightship promised to show bet
ter time. The Shamrock passed Ryde go
ing towards the Nab Itghtship a mile and
half ahead of the Britannia and final
ly won easily.
The course as originally planned was
not completed When eff Southsea, the
Britannia signaled that the Prince of
Wales had an engagement in London and
requested that the race be considered
over as he must return to Portsmouth.
The Shamrock was then twelve or four
teen minutes ahead. She was Immediate
ly turned homewerd and directly after
wards grounded on a bank off Horses
Foot fort. She remained fast for ton
minutes when she was safely and easily
towec Off and back to Southampton.
AS was the case yesterday the Sham
rock showed her superiority very soon
AFTER the start was made Beating to
Wlnd"ard she ran away from her on
ronent to the Nab Ightship and again
put about in ten seconds, the Britannia
occupying twelve seconds The whole
performance again showed that the chaI-
lenger Is far ahead of the Britannia al
though the unfortunate becaIming of tho
boats preclnded the finishing of the
course before the Prince of WaIoe no.
obliged to start for London. The sbaro
rock was apparently not damaged nv

DAIRYMEN IN COUNCIL.
Pass u Resolution of Censure for AL
legged Breach of Faith.

The st. Paul Retail Dairymen's Coop
erative association held a well attended
meeting last evening at the nall at Sew
enth and Bradley streets, and paid its re-
spects to Health Commissioner Ohage,
passing a resolution Of Censure for an al
legged breach of faith.
It was claimed at the meeting that DR..
Ohage had promised a committee, repre-
senting the association, that he would
enforce the test of dairy cattle against
the dai1ymen living in the country, and
look after the local milkmen last. This
he is claimed not to have done, but, on
the contrary, tests have been made of
ST. Paul cattle alone. The resolution was
passed without dissenting voice.
The committee appointed to look up the
matter of insurance reported that it
would be ready with it's report at the
August meeting. President McCarron ex-
planned for the benefit of those who were
not present at the last meeting that the
committee was looking up plans for the
organization of cooperative insurance
association among the members of the
association. AS the organization repre-
sents about 1900 cows, it is believed that
such plan would work to the mutual adj
vantage of all concerned. The insurance
is not to extend beyond cows, and will
not insure against accident, only against
loss from death. There was considera-
BILE discussion of the dairy test which is
being applied to COWS by the city health
department. The association was organ
lied primarily to oppose this test, and to
date the members have refused to paw for
the service, and in very few cases has
the health department attemptd to carry
out the law,

ton and Alger was sacrificed, so now Otis
is evidently about to be supplanted.
Alger's appointment to a cabinet posi-
ton, in view of his past record and Of his
accepted tendencies as a spokesman and
all-round crooked politician, was regarded
as an insult to the intelligence and con-
science of the country. Ills retention in
his position after the shocking scandals
of the embalmed beef was a direct chal-
lenge of the will of the American people,
So, the retention of Gen. Otis in command
long after his utter incapacity was made
fearfully plain shows either a dense ig-
norance Of the needs Of the situation, or,
what is much more likely, a deliberate
purpose to string this war along and
bring it to a close at a politically oppor-
tune time
For six months past the cry has gone
up from the people Of the United States
to send largely increased force to the
Philippines. 1t has gone up unheeded,
and Gen. Otis has been permitted to go
Oh in a course which was universally re-
gerded as foolish and criminal. The adj
nlinistration, with the amplest opportuni-
ties for Independent judgment, has refus-
ed to accede to any of the public de-
mands, but has stood sponsor of Otis at
every turn.
Now that the correspondents have unit
ed il. denouncing the conduct of affairs
in the Philippines, and their exposure and
denunciation has been concurred in by
the entire country, the imperialists are
discovering that it is time to drop Otis

Why do the people at Washington not
send Miles to Manila? There is only one
municipalities. He is The commanding
general of the army. Yet he seems to
have about as much to say about the
PROCESS of military operations in the
Philippines as if he were a retired off
Ger. He has sat for a few days, we are
told, at the desk Of the secretary of war
while that military chieftain was away;
but he was in that position, as he is in
his position as lieutenant general, a
purely ornamental official.
Let Otis go. The sooner he gees
the better it will be for the
men in the Philippines. 1t is not
at all likely that a more helpless
and acquiescent tool for the political ends
of the Mckinley Hanna administration
can be found in the entire list of availa-
Bile officers. It would be instructive, at
least, if the public could know before
Otis is removed who the great men in
command in Washington have chosen as
his successor.
