REPUBLIC.

4 force Of five men is working on
the Rebate This property adjoins the
Tom Thumb on the southwest. 1t is
being developed by a crosscut tunnel.
1t is probable that the ledge will be cut
within so days.
The winze being sunk in No. tun-
mel on the San Poll is about 35 feet
deep. Superintendent w. M. drummer
states that the ledge is three and
half feet wide and that the values are
also improving with depth.
The crosscut in the Butte Boston at
the 26Q-foot level in the new shaft is in
about As feet. AS the exact dip OF the
ledge is unknown, 1t is somewhat diff
cult to estimate the distance yet to be
driven to cut it, but it Is quite likely
that it is still 100 feet away.
Work on the San Juan shaft is pro-
crossing favorably. The ledge has
widened out to four feet and is rapidly
improving in appearance. No assays
have been made. and of course the
crossing favorably. The ledge has
been mixed with porphyry, but this is
giving way to quartz.
The Flag Hill Is working five men
running a crosscut. 1t is not certain
lust when the ledge will be cut, as its
dip is unknown. There is considerable
interest manifested in the result of the
development going on, as the Flag Hi
has produced some remarkably rlcf
rock. The ore body was small, how
ever. and alsl somewhat broken. /
is the opinion of mining experts anC
others that the property will develoI
into first-class mine.
The south drift on the Chico was pu
in 100 feet and work was suspended
pending the arrival of valves for thu
compressor, which will probably reacl
here Sunday. 1t will take only shor
time to start up the compressor, AM
then rapid work will be done. Tn
ledge has not yet been crosscut to tn
hanglng-wali, and therefore the valu
of the ore is not known. The worl
is being carried on at vertical dept
of oS5 feet, or about 325 feet on tn
dip of the ledge.
The Tom Thumb is stopping in tn
old workings and hosting with tn
whim. One carload of 20 tons will b
shipped to the Grand Forks smelter a
soon aas it is taken out. This will b
simply a test shipment. If the result
are satisfactory and it is found that tn
cost of treatment is reasonable. it
likely that other shipments will b
made as long as the roads are gooC
Work on the raise is progressing quit
rapidly. This work is being carried
about 40 feet west of the west ledge.

Imperial Edict.

Berlin, Sept. 20.-The Boersen Zeitung
prints special dispatch from Shang-
hal, dated Monday, September II,
saying that an imperial edict, dated Sep
TENDER Z, commands all the Chinese gen
erals, under pain of death, to avoid hos
tile acts; orders all high officials to re-
turn to Pekin and assist in restoring or
der and peace, and orders the suppression
of the Boxers, whose leaders must be
captured.
A second edict, the dispatch adds, orders
comprehensive reform in the entire ad-
ministration of the empire.
The allies at PelSin, it is also declared
in the, dispatch, must insist upon the en-
peror's return and the punishment of
Kang vi and all the Boxer leaders.
WIN Have to Pay i'm Territory.
Ii Hung Chang is reported as having
said that as China could not possibly pay
the indemnity which will be demanded
from her, there will be no alternative but
to give territory instead of money, in
which case Japan would get Shin King
Russia would be given Shin Kiang and
Thibet would be given to England.

Washington, Sept. 2l.-The Chinese

TWO Canals binding Atlantic.

1t is asserted that the future will see two
canals binding the Atlantic TO the Pacific
ocean. The value of such connection can
not be estimated. 1t will bring prosperity
to the nation, as surely as Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters brings health to the dys-
peptic. Try it for indigestion, constipa-
ton, dyspepsia or biliousness.

'Tsku.-Adjutant General, Washing

Washington, Sept. 2l.-Admiral Crow

ceived the following cablegram from Ad-
miral Remey:

Washington, Sept. 2l.-As the state
department has determined to adhere tC

whatever response it may make to thu
last German proposition relative to thu
punishment of the Chinese responsible TO
the Pelxin outrages it is expected that tn
text of the United States note and ever
the substance will be withheld from pub
lication for at least two days after its de
livery. 1t is believed it will take the form
of a circular, addressed not to German.
alone, but to each of the powers intereste
in the Chinese situation. Furthermore
it is believed that instead OF being a
unconditional acceptance or rejection c
the German proposition it will be rattle
controversial and be framed with pun
pose to develop the sentiments of the oil
er powers respecting the German propos
ton and to secure support for our ow
views of that matter.
As Count Won Waldersee is steadil
making his way toward Pekin, but sti
needs a weeks time to complete his jou
ney, it is not likely that the German go
eminent will interpose serious protes
against any action on the part OF Il
| United States which will have the etfe
to postpone the beginning of settlemel
until the field marshal arrives. 1t is IL
possible to tell now whether the acti'
which is to be taken by our governme
will have such a dilatory effect.

SUIT HITCHCOCK
Continued From Second Page.

Kansas introduced a resolution calling
upon the interior department to furnish
all papers in possession OF the depart
ment bearing upon the charges against
Pollock The resolution was adopted.
but the department I'd 20 date has not
seen TT TO comply with this request.
Lately the senate has shown a disDo-
sition TO insist upon its demands for the
papers, and TO this disposition the resig-
nation of Pollock may be attributed.
Now that his resignation has been ten
dered to the secretary Of the interior, the
senate investigation Of Pollock probably
Will be dropped.
The most vigorous opponent OF his re-
tention and the most active agent in
pressing charges against him was Ran
som Payne, who had been appointed con-
stable on the reservation and whom Pol
lock had removed.

battle and Nichols appeared TO have the
