THE COPPER KING.
Il Still ON the Boom-Ore Body Still
Fills the Shaft Which Has
Reached IS5 Feet.

Everything connected with the
Copper King property at Dawson City
is q veritable beehive of industry, and
confidence in the successful outcome
of the mine is apparent.
The shaft has now reached q depth
of 185 feet and the vein is slowly
dipping out. The shaft will, however,
be sunk to the 200 foot mark, when a
station will be cut and a cross cut
started for the vein. The character
of the ore does not seem to change
except that it gets harder
Work on the water well is progress
ing rapidly, the drill having reached
depth of lao feet. After passing
through a thick blanket Of sandstone
the first flow of water was tapped.
This will be cased out and the well
sunk to artesian water if it can be
obtained within the capacity Of the
machine. The indications are good
to find all the water that will be need
ed for the mine. If success attends
the effort steam hoisting plant will
be at once installed. If the company
fails in its scarab for water it is their
intention to try for deal with the
Colorado Electric plant in this city
to transmit electricity to the mine
and the mine run with electric ma
chinery.
How widely the Copper King is
known throughout the state may be
known from the fact that almost daily
experts arrive in Canon for the pur-
pose of examining the mine. Already
several offers havo been received for
the mine either as a whole or for
controlling interest in it. The COM
pany cheerfully gives all needed in
formation to these experts but so far
has declined anything like deal.
A. Huber of Colorado Springs has
been in the city two days this week,
comforting with the resident stock
holders and directors Of the Copper
King Free Gold Mining and Milling
Company, Of which he is president.
He returned to Colorado Springs yes

A DAY OF DENIALS
Which is the Liar, Prewilt
or Golden
Star Witness Goldman Seeks to Show by
Chart That GocbI Was Not Shot
From Powers Office.
(By the Associated Press.)

Georgetown, Ky, August SIN the
trial of former Secretary of State Pow
ers, on the charge of completely in the
Goebel shooting, the defence today pro-
duced one of it's star witnesses, in the
shape of Surveyor Goldman and his chart
of the Capitol grounds at Frankfort. 1t
was intended to prove by his figures that
the bullet which killed Goebel could not
have been fired from the sill of the
window of the Secretary of States office
if it took the course claimed for it by
the prosecution.
DR.. Prewitt, of Taylor county, on cross
examination denied that he told Whar-
ton Golden he had no doubt that "Tallow
Dick" Combs fired the shot that killed
GCebel. He denied that he said Combs
came into the Adjutant Generals office
after the shooting. He repeated that
Combs and Hockersmith were in the
office at the time, and that neither of
them could have done the shooting The
witness also said he had seen Golden
day or two ago and denounced him as
liar.
AS Prewitt left the stand Golden was
recalled, and the men met face to face.
see how they greeted each other. They
spoke cordially and then Golden took tho
stand, and denied that he had made GER
tain statements with which Prewitt
charged him. He repeated what he claim
ed Prewitt told him in regard to "Tallow
Dick" Combs in connection with the
shooting. Cross examination of James
Sparks, county attorney in Laurel coun-
sci for the prosecution asked him il he
had not said in the presence of a number
of people in London that Goebel was to
be shot, and had even designated the day,
also that Taylor had made out the par
dons with the exception of inserting the
names. He denied making such state
ments.
f. B. Goodman, of New Albany, Ind,
a civil engineer, said he had worked for
many leading railroads of the country.
He made survey of the Capitol grounds
in Frankfort and had made chart
which he presented. He explained vari-
Gus distances to the grounds and stated
that a shot fired from the sill OF the
window of the Secretary of States office
to the hole in the blackberry tree, would
drop ! 3-16 inches per foot in it's passage.
He understood that the bullet in passing
through Governor GoebePs body dropped
/ 7-16 inches and at this rate it would
have dropped after leaving the body so
as to strike the basin fountain instead
of the blackberry tree. A bullet fired
from the sill from the Secretary of States
office, which dropped 1 7-16 inches to the
foot would have never reached the spot
where Goebel was supposed to be stand
ing He stated further that a line drawn
through Goebels body from the point
of exit to the point of entrance and con-
tinued to the executive building in
straight line would have struck it Sh

KINsToN DEFEATS HALIFAX.
BRITISH PARLIAMENT ADJoURNs. /
The Queen Makes Specific Mention of America
in Her Speech.
(By the Associated Press.)

London, August S.-Parliament ad-
Journed today after the appropriation
bill had been passed by both houses.
The Queens speech after stating that
the relations with the powers of Europe
and America continue friendly and ref
erence to the establishment of the Com
monwealth Of Australia, refers to the war
in South Africa, saying:
Believing the continued independence
of the republics to be a constant danger
to the peace OF South Africa, | authorized
the annexation of the Free State as a
first step to the union of the races under
an institution which may in time be de-
veloped SO as to secure equal rights and
privileges in South Africa.
Referring to China the speech from
the Throne says:
THE British and other legations al
Pekin have been unexpectedly attacked
by an insurgent mob, and it is feared
many of their inmates have been murder
ed. How far the Chinese authorities are
accomplices in this atrocious crime and
whether the British Minister and family
are among the victims, are matters still
in uncertainty. The utmost efforts will
be made by myself and my allies to visit
with worthy punishment the authors OF
this unexampled crime"
An innovation in the Queens speech
which causes some comment was the
mentioning of America specifically. The
speeches from the Throne usually allude
to the powers generally or to the Euro
pean powers.

might indicate that there were no regu-
lar troops engaged in the assault and
that the rife fire spoken of by Mr.. Con-
ger might be simply the sniping of dis
gruntled irregulars who were engaged in
guerilla tactics.
Two dispatches were received during
the day. one from Admiral Remey and
the other from General Chaffee. Both
related to the fighting at Peit Sang. Ad-
miral Remey's dispatch stated specifi-
cally that the Americans were not en-
gagged and General Chaffees dispatch
explains how it was that they practically
were out of it. They occupied the rear
of the turning column. Owing to the
limited ground of operations which he
mentions, it is probable that the Ameri-
cans could not be brought into the thick
of the fighting and they thus escaped
without casualties. The fact that the
American troops did not have an appor-
tunity to distinguish themselves was
something of a disappointment to the
officials of the War Department, but
knowing General Chaffee as they do,
they are confident if his men were not
engaged, it was because it was physically
impossible to bring them into action.
The continued brilliant work of the
Japanese who seem to have borne the
brunt of the fighting at Peit Sang, as
we'll as at Tien Tsin attracts unstinted
praise for the doughty warriors of the
Mikado's realm.
Secretary Root said tonight that the
events of the day had caused no change
in the military situation so far as the
advance on Pekin was concerned and no
additional orders had been sent to Gen
eral Chaffee.
