HOUSE PUTS N BUSY DAY
CALENDAR IS CLEARED AND
HEAVY INRGAD MADE ON
GENERAL ORDERS
T0RsON MEASURE IS KILLED
Laybourn's Insurance Bill Makes
Temperance After Being Held
Up by Committee So Long
That Action Is Unlikely.

The house pounded away during the
whole session yesterday on routine. The
calendar was cleared and large inroads
were made on the general orders. To-
days calendar as a result, will show
ur list of twenty-four bills, which
will call for some more laborious routine
work. The house is not working bit
too faithfully, however if it intends
to complete the immense bulk of work
on hand, by the 18th inst No doubt
night sessions will begin next week and
continue until the term is finished
The only bill on the calendar which
was killed yesterday was the Torson
bill, increasing the term of the state
two to four years The measure called
forth considerable discussion, but the
supply of votes was not equal to the talk
and hence the bill was defeated.
The senate bill, introduced by Senator
Smith, and adopted in the house as a
substitute to the bill of Representative
Smith, providing for the establishment
of state employment offices in cities of
more than 10000 inhabitants. was passed
While the house was being given a
breathing spell during the routine. Mr..
Lay pOufn presented MS VOlum1nOuS in
surance bill, amended very extensively
This measure was introduced early in
the session, but it has been impossible to
get action on it. The committee has held
the bill up. and now the author feels dis
couraged as TO its fate. AS the measure
is now amended it provides for the re-
Incorporation of assessment insurance
companies as old line companies. The
chief object sought il this amendment
is to enable the Rankers Life, Of this
state, a very well-known and active
company, to reincorporate as an old linz
company. The assets of this institution
are greater than those of eight different
old line companies of other states, prin-
clpally the East, doing business in Min
nesota, and there is a strong demand
that the concession which the Laybourr
hill thus provides for, should be granted
Besides this amendment the bill now
provides for the following officers and
their salaries, as assistants to the state
insurance commissioner:
Assistant commissioner. $500 a year
chief clerk, Sl,5O0; assistant chief clerk
200; second assistant chief clerk. 1860
stenographer, $500; assistant stenograph.

MUST GO re CONFERENCE.
House Won't Accept Senate Amend
ments to Primary Election RiII.

Upon motion of Mr. Dunn, author of the
bill, the house refused to concur in the
senate amendment tol the primary cleo
ticn bill yesterday, and conference
ed, consisting of Senators Benedict, Bar.
ker and Miller and Representatives Dunn,
Robots and Schultz.
The chief objection was the Ives amend
ment, which removed the obligation for
a voter to swear as to his former party
utilization. 1t was held by the house
members that under such a system the
primaries could be packed and the pur-
port of the law defeated by having an
other than the candidate wanted nomin-
ated. Or, in other words, that it placed
in the hands Of one party the power of
naming the other party's nominees.

curing voting machines, was also OBJ

White Doves Released at Christen-
ing of New Steamship.
WILMINGTON, Del, April 4-The
New York & Texas Steamship company's
steamship Denver was launched today
from the Harlan & Hollingsworth COM
pany's yard. An innovation in the chris
tening was the substitution of the i'm
perial Japanese custom of releasing
white doves from a box as the steamer
started from the ways, instead Of break
ing bottle Of wine over the bow. The
doves were covered with pieces of soft
white paper, which fioated through the
air as they swiftly flew from the box.
The English method of snubbing by
fixed chains, instead Of by cables run
ming through winches,, was tried for the
first tim and worked successfully. Miss
Mary P. Mallory, daughter of the presi-
dent Of the Mallory line, performed the
christening by releasing the trap of the
box in which the doves were confined.
The Denver is 1856 feet over all; beam,

COMMONWEALTH MINES.
Operations Have Been Resumed with
Scant Force,

superintendent Brockman of the
Commonwealth Mining and Milling
company drove over from Pearce
this week to transact business at
the county seat, says the Tomb
stone PrOspector.
When questioned by Prospector
representative as to the labor trou-
bles at Pearce, Mr.. Brockman stat
ed that the mill was started up
again Sunday morning with forty
stamps falling, and the manage
ment expects to have the remain
der Of the eighty stamps dropping
soon. The company will not re-
cede from the position taken that
caused the works to be closed down
last week. Mr.. Brockman adheres
to his previous declaration-while
voicing the sentiments of his asso-
ciates-that the stamps would be
hung up until consumed by rust
before a union man would be per-
mitted to work for the company.
Quite a number of idle union men
are still at Pearce, between whom
and Mr., Brockman the friendliest
of feelings exists; there has not
been any violent demonstrations,
nor is anything of the kind antici-
pated.
The Prospector has been unable
to get an account of the trouble
from union standpoint, but will
give their version of the affair from
the first reliable information OBJ
tainable.

is the property where so many
large nuggets were found about ten
years ago. Sam Powell states that
he saw thirty five men dry panning
there at one time within a distance
of three hundred yards a few days
after the first nugget was found.
So far all the gold has been found
on the surface, the formation be-
ing an immense white quartz blow

a shaft sunk, confident that when
so much free gold was found on
the surface there must be more be-

of sulphuric acid. The capacity of
the plant will be easily $4,000
pounds of acid per twenty-four
hours, Besides the main, or cham
Der building, there are towers and

The main building contains the
lead chambers, three in number,
for condensing the sulphur fumes
as they come from the furnaces.
About 100 tons of sheet lead will
used. Lead for chambers is six
and seven pounds weight per square
foot. Pans Of Glover tower are
fve-eighths of an inch thick and
weighs forty pounds per square
foot. All seams and joints are
burned or joined with the hydrogen
flame, making solid lead joint.
Experienced workmen have come
from Boston and Chicago to do
this work The Glover and Gay
Lussac towers are the best con-
struction and play an important
part in the economy of acid MAX
ing. Special acid-resisting brick
for use in the towers will come
from Los Angeles at great expense.
The furnace room contains four
