Justice to Mexico.

We view with lively interest and
keen hopes of beneficial results the
proceedings of the Pan American Con-
gress Convoked at the invitation of
Mexico, and now sitting at the Mex
lean capital. The delegates of the
United States are under the most lib
eral instructions to cooperate with
their colleagues in all matters promis-
ing advantage to the great family of
American commonw ealths, as we'll in
their relations among themselves as in
their domestic advancement and in
their intercourse with the world at
large.
My predecessor communicated to the
Congress the fact that the We'll and
La Abra awards against Mexico have
been adjudged by the highest courts of
our country to have been obtained
through fraud and perjury on the part
of the claimants, and that in accord
ance with tho acts of the Congress the
money remaining in the hands of the
Secretary of State on these awards has
been returned to Mexico. A considera-
BILE portion of the money received from
Mexico on these awards had been paid
by this government to the claimants
before the decision of the courts was
rendered. My judgment is that the
Congress should return to Mexico an
amount equal " lllt SUMS biLuS dlIcduy
paid to the claimants.
International sympathy.
The death of Queen Victoria caused
the people of the United States deep
and heartfelt sorrow, to which the gov
eminent gave full expression. When
President Mckinley died, our nation iE
turn received from every quarter Of the
British Empire expressions of grief and
sympathy no less sincere. The death
of the Empress Dowager Frederick of
Germany also aroused the genuine
sympathy of the American people: and
this sympathy was cordially recipro-
Gated by Germany when the President
was assassinated. Indeed, from every
quarter of the civilized world we re-
ceived, at the time of the President S
death, assurances of such grief and
regard as to touch the hearts of our
people. In the midst of our affliction
we reverently thank the Almighty that
we are at peace with the nations of
mankind and we firmly intend that
our policy shall be such as to continue
unbroken these international relations
of mutual respect and good will

OF a property they mean business.
The Adams property is being devel-
oped very rapidly, We are now
down SO feet and we find that what
we at first supposed to be only a low
grade proposition is giving promise
OF becoming a high grade property.
AS to this last deal they are very
much pleased and it is the intention
OF the company to place a large force
of men at work there just as soon as
supplies and machinery can be trans
ported to the camp. We will run a
tunnel in on the lead and will very soon
have the propsrty in shape to ship
ore. We have already sold 100000
shares of stock, the par value Of which
IS 10 cents, for 8 cents per share.
"I7expect that a number of Denver
men viii be out here in the purse of
a week or ten days, to look this conn
try over. l feel quite sure they will
be satisfied. 1t is the biggest thing
lnsthe way OF copper prospects that
! ever saw and it gets better all the
time. / find, each time l come back
here, that everything has improved
and You can rest assured that we will
do all in our power to develop the
country, if we meet with encourage

Mail Line to Gold Hill.

j., e Kennaday is now trimming a
four horse. coach from this point to
Gold Hill, twice a week. This is the
natural supply point to Gold Hill,
Ten Mile and Brush, French and
Mullin creeks, as we'll as Teller's tie
camp. A very strong effort is now
being made to have a mail line estab-
lished to Gold Hill and those having
the matter in charge are confident
they viii be able to make a go of the
matter. Certainly a mail route to
that point is very much needed and
the points that are to be supplied
with mail are increasing in impor-
lance every day.
Kennaday's coach leaves here Mon
and Fridays and Gold Hill
Tuesdays and Saturdays, making
regular trips on schedule time.

Heath spearing flies with a pickle

ELK MOUNTAIN ORE
Now Going to the Smelter It Encamp
ment--Large Body of Copper Glance
Ore E.ncountered-A Bright Outlook.


Ore teams are now hauling the
product of the Elk Mountain mine to
the smelter at Encampment. Six
horse teams, loaded with the very rich
ore from that mine, passed through
here Monday, on its way up country.
w. r. Wilcox, superintendent of
the mine, was in the city Saturday
for supplies. He said they had, in
the past three days, taken out 300
sacks OF the very rich copper glance
which has made the mine so famous.
Mr.. Wilcox says they are now work
ing in a very large body of high
grade ore and that the deeper they
get the better the prospects are.
They are now down over 100 feet.
MIR. Wilcox also reports that they
are now engaged in opening up an
other very fine prospect very close to
the Elk Mountain mine and that they
will shortly be working two mines in
stead of one.
