BRITISH COLUMBIA.

Work has commenced on the smelter
for .he Sullivan mine at Marysville, B.
C., and 1t Is expected that it will be
completed and in operation by March l.
An important strike has been made
at the head of Springer creek, Slocah
district, giving promise OF adding an
other rich mine 20 that portion OF the
camp. The discovery was made ON the
Monterey group, situated to the east OF
the Hampton claim. The group con-
sists Of the Monterey, Oregon and Ban
croft claims, and is owned by n. F..
Mcknight, r. Milloy and Leo Dolron.
The tunnel on the Tammany group,
near Grand Forks, in the Burnt Basin,
has crosscut blind ledge nine feet
wide. The ore is free milling, and
seems to be of good grade. The tun.
mel. which is 135 feet. will be extend
ed to crosscut the main ledge, which is
visible on the surface. Development
work is in charge OF Bert Rea The
(Mich.) men.
The plan which has been under con-
sideration by James rBeen for the cree
tion Of a smelter In the Boundary coun-
try has been brought to an end. The
smelter will not be built Mr.. Breen,
however. Is going ahead with plans for
building a smelter. He and David
Fotheringham and Hermann Bellinger,
superintendent Of the Heinze smelters
at Butte. have completed plans for
building smelter on the east coas. OF
Vancouver island, forty miles north of
Victoria, B. G. 1t will have an initial
capacity OF about 800 tons per day. Two
stacks will be constructed at the star.
Plans will be made for increasing the
capacity as fast as ore can be secured
Hermann Bellinger will leave the
Heinze smelters at Butte to accept the
supervision of the metallurgical de
partment. Messrs. Breen, Fothering
ham and Bellnger will furnish the
funds for the enterprise. Work will bt
commenced at once.
1t is highly probable that Bernard
Mcdonald will soon retire from the
management OF the lie Roi mine a.
Rossland. 1t is practically settled tha
Bella Kadish will retire from the man
agement OF the lie Roi smelter a
Northport. These two development.
are the most important results OF The
recent visit which was made to Ross
land by Henry Bratnober, who ranks
among the larger shareholders in the
lie Roi company. 1t is believed tina,
the retirement OF Messrs. Macdonald
and Kadish will simplify the strike sit
uation greatly. The chief antagonisn
OF the striking miners and smeltermen
is conferred personally against Mr.. Nc
Donald. with a less degree bestowed
upon Mr. Kadish. 1t has been conceded
by the strikers from the start that II
Mr.. Macdonald were to withdraw from
the management OF the mine the
chances OF settling the trouble would
be doubled.

MINING NOTES.

There is a story in Wallace, Idaho.
that the Hercules mine has been bond
ed to Finch & Campbell OF Spokane
for 100000.
Five tons Of ore sampled at the Ia
coma smel-er. taken from the famous
Apache claim in Nespelim camp, ran
over $500 to the ton.
The Northern Star company. Of
which w. H. Plummer OF Spokane Is
manager, expects to erect a Ave stamp
mill upon its property near the Dixie
Queen in Dixie camp. Idaho.
The Hercules. at Wallace. Idaho. has
shipped It's third carload OF ore. The
owners decline to say what the sampler
returns Of the first two carloads were,
but say that II exceeded in value any
two carloads OF ore ever shipped from
the Occur d'Alenes.

No News From Miss stone.

Constantinople, Oct. 2l.--Ncither W. w.
Peet, treasurer Of the American Bible
house, nor Spencer Eddy, secretary Of the
United States legation had received any
news up to noon from the missionaries
who have been searching for the brig nds
who kidnapped Miss Ellen Stone and her
companion. Nine. Tsilka. Messrs. Peet
and Eddy had a long conference as to the
ACCESSIBILITY Of reinforcing the searchers.
but decided that the present arrangements
sufficed. Consul General Dickinson re-
mains at Sophia and will opcrat from there
until the liberation OF Miss Stone is ac-
complshed.
The difficult nature of the country
handicaps the searehers. and heavy rains
have increased the difficulty of traversng
the paths, which are the oply means Of
access to the hiding place of the bandits
in the rugged mountain range.
Ambassador Is Active.

Ambassador Tower has returned here from

behalf Of Miss Stone. The Russian foreign
office is showing sympathy and will assist
Mr.. Tower.
According to the latest reports received
at the ambassy the brigands are inclined
to surrender to Bulgaria. and il is still
hoped in view Of Consul General Dick
insen's negotiations that the life Of Miss
Stone will be saved.

THIRD TERM.

From the Cincinnati Enquirer.
 Of course the talk about a third term for President Mckinley has not reached the serious stage yet, but still a conserv- ative person may be permitted to reflect on the great satisfaction MT. Mckinley gave in his first term to those who were mainly instrumental in electing him in 1896 and the continued satisfaction he is likely to give in his second term to the same class of supporters, who it is un- derstood, saw to it again in 1900 that the Republican headquarters were not lack ing in summer luxuries. And who can these gentlemen find who is likely to be more satisfactory than this personal friend for the term beginning on the 4th of March, 1905? Who else can they trust so implicitly os MT. Mckinley? What other man with his political skill and self-sacrifce in personal convictions can be found? Possibly there is such an other man, but he has not been tried. While the public and the press including The Enquirer, and not even excepting MT. Hanna, generally laugh at the idea of the third term now, there is no telling what may happen in the future. Gen tlemen who furnish the sinews of cam paign in large sums do not waste much time in sentiment.
