troops into Manchuria. 1t is rumor-
ed that Japan and Germany are about
to follow suit and that these three
powers have invited the United States

determination to oppose England's s

certain that sooner or later there will
come clash of arms between the

Big Sack of Gold Taken to Assay Office at
Boise by Caswell Bros

Boise has been stirred up for u
week over the arrival of the Caswell
boys from Thunder mountain with a
sack of gold which being deposited
and assayed at the U. S. assay Of
fee at that place, was found to con-
tain $40, ,02O. The Caswells state
that it is the product of ninety
hour run with the hose.
Following upon this comes the
news that Col. w. H. Dewey has
bonded the property for 800, 900.
The colonel was represented by his
son, f. H. Dewey, in the nego-
tiations, while the promoter of the
sale was e, w. Johnson, proprietor
of the Overland hotel Mr. johnson
has been at work on the matter eve
since the Thunder Mt Consolidated
Gold Mines company gave up th'
property.
Colonel Dewey agrees to pay 800,
600 for the claims; he also agrees tt
construct a wagon road from th'
state wagon road in Bear Valley t,
to the property, and to erect mil
at the mine. The terms of his con

WILL WINTER IN THE WILDS.
Caswell Boys Preparing to Pass the
Winter at Thunder Mountain.

The Boise Statesman says that the
Caswell brothers, who came to that
city from their claim at Thunder
Mountain few days sgo, are max
ing ready to return to their claim and
to spend the winter there, working
and developing the property They
claim that they are in nowise anxious
to sell their claim, but as they are
not in position to work it they will
sell if they get their price. They
also say that if they do not sell be-
fore spring they will raise the price.
They are making good thing out
of the property and say they would
as soon have the value In the ground
as in the bank
The outfit is making very thorough
preparations to stay in Thunder
mountain during the entire winter,
with as much comfort as will be pos
sibe under the circumstances They
are laying in full set of supplies
and tools and materials for sinking
shaft and for tunneling They say
that when the shaft is sunk that they
believe that it will show as rich ore
as any that is known to mining.
The father and mother OF the own
ers of the mine are visiting them in
this city, but will leave for their
home in Texas within a few days to
spend the winter there.
The boys have been having a map
made of their claims and of the whole
country adjacent to them. Also one
of their workings there. They have
been spending most of their time in
having assays made Of several different
specimens of ores they brought to
this city with them, and also in ar
ranging for having their supplies
sent to the mines.

mountain, including the two from
which the Caswels have secured
such rich results by placer mining.
The other claims extend up the

Colonel Dewey will at once put a
force of men to work on the property.

during the winter the claims will be

showing large ledges of copper ore

at Thunder Mountain will lead to the

Portland capitalists who are interest

Should the deal be consummated,
and there is every reason to believe
it will be, it will mean the develop

posits are not confined to the ground

The Signal mentioned last week
that mysterious party of G. B &C
surveyors had passed west across the
Snake from Weiser. 1t turns out
that the party represented the Chic
ago & Rock Island, which puts new
phase on the situation. The G. B.
& O. surveyors are, on the other hand,
reported to be now coming down Sal
mon River. There is plain deter
mination of some big roads to get in
to some of this new western country
and as Weiser is right in the line of
march, we can rest easy under the
assurance of getting the cream of COM
ing development and new railway
facilities at no distant day, which will
make us the Inter mountain Omaha.
There are constantly interesting
bits of news floating down from the
north of railway parties moving
about. Anything promising active
construction in Idaho is of great in
terest to us, as it should act as a
magnet to draw the P. & l. n. north
ward, and a northern connection
would be a grand thing for our every
interest.

parties of prospectors arriving at
Stuart report having encountered on
the Locksaw branch of the Middle
fork of the Clearwater the party Of
Northern Pacific surveyors who are
now surveying the Butte Lewiston
cut off. These prospectors report
that the surveyors have completed
the survey over the Bitter Root divide,
having found in the vicinity of the
Lolo trail highly satisfactory grade,
which is much lower than any pre-
viously secured, and that the party
is now working rapidly down the
Clearwater branch. A letter has
also been received at Stuart from
one of the surveying party stating
that the pass is so entirely satisfac-
tory that the Middle fork route will
undoubtly be finally accepted by the
company. Information received
some time ago was to the effect thai
the party was engaged in seeking
a still lower pass and the fact tha
they are now working down the Ida
no side of the Bitter Roots indicates
that they found 1t. Prospectors who
brought out the news of the move

the party will within few weeks
connect with the survey made las

A west-b bound freight train had stop
ped at the station. 1t is not announced
whose fault it was but a few minutes
later another w~est-bound freight ran
into the first. almost at full speed. Sew,
eral cars in the rear Of the first train
were heaped up in a ruin and the en-.
CINE of the second train was badly
damaged. The steam derrick was sent
from Laramie to work on the wreck

The election in Laramie was con
Quoted quietly and without any distur-
bance whatever. A beautiful day and
the great interest inthe campaign made
a large vote easy and at the hour of 60
ing to press it is certain that the total
vote polled will be almost equal to the
total registration, in some of the pre-
~cincts quite up to it.
The streets have been crowded all
day and at intervals groups have gath
cred on the prominent corners to dis
cuss the probable results in this and
other states. There has been betting
in a small way but no large wagers
have been recorded. There has been
plenty of republican money offered at
all kinds of odds and on all kinds of
propositions but there were few dem.
ocrats found who would cover the bets.
A considerable sum was placed by one
republican at 2 to l on the general re
suit and there was plenty more offered
at the same odds, but not taken.
The news from the country at large
indicates that the vote polled was
large. The indications are that the
predictions of the republican manag-
ers have been verified and that the
country will give a satisfactory ma
jority to the republican ticket.
The news from Denver is that the
feeling ran high and that there were
many conflicts between deputy sher-
ifs and policemen at the polls. Ru.
MOI has it that there were tour men
killed but at the hour Of going to press
these reports have not been verified.
Trouble was anticipated there and, in.
deed. it vas almost certain that COM
bats would result from the strained re.
lations between the county and the city
authorities.
