HILLS DEAL POSTPONED.
LEAVES NEW YORK FOR HOME
Time When G. n. VIII Control
thest.MiIwaukee."

New York, Jan. S0.-James ]. Hill left
here last night for st. Paul. The Press,
commenting upon Mr.. HilPs departure,
says:
The completion of the railroad deal
whereby the Chicago, Milwaukee & ST.
Paul would pass TO the control of the
Great Northern and Northern Pacific, has
been postponed. The plans have not been
abandoned but the interests are SO many
that time is required to carry the nego-
tiations to q successful conclusion.
The stumbling blocks in the way have
been legal aspects of the transfer and the
persistence of some large holders to ex-
act a prohibitive price for their holdings.
Persons intimate with the plans of the
Morgan-Hill clique say that the public
has expected results too quickly.
They point out that it requires time to
perfect every great DEAL and that the
one in regard to st. Paul will be no ex-
ception. Yet none asserts that it will
not be omplished-probably when un-
expected"

Will mine the valuable tin deposits owned

for the treatment of tin ores generally,
either those owned by the company OF by
others, and for the manufacture of bab-
bits, solder and alloys; and for these
purposes the company will erect custom

quantity of ore can be obtained.
The property owned by the company

This company is the pioneer in estab-
fishing in America the business of mining
and smelling tin. Such rapid strides have
peeh maoe by the United states in the
development of its iron, steel, copper,
lead and zinc industries that it now con-
trolls the market for these metals, as it
soon will for tin also.
The company using improved machin-

emphatic YES. Referring to Bear Gulch
where the company's property is situated,
he in part says. Il have broken speci-
mems for hours in the vain search to find
some part of the vein that did not carry
tln l only mention this to show how
thoroughly disseminated It is in some de-
posits, and one which 1 1ecall Is compar-
able for size to the great Homestake mine,
and in my opinion Is alone capable of
employing as many men. 1t is my opin-
ion, further, that this tin district, prop
erly worked, is capable of supplying all
the tin used in the United States, but it
must be worked in some such system and
scale as the Homestake or Calumet and
Hecla. Great as is the. development OF
the gold mining there it will yet be ex-
ceeded by tin and iron, metals just as use
ful If not quite so noble.
The company's initial concentrating
plant at its mines will have a daily ca
pacity OF $50 tons of ore, from which
eight to ten tons of high grade coneen-
trates (55 TO 60 per cent metallic TIM will
be produced and shipped TO its electric
smelling works to be erected at Niagara
Falls, where the electric power will be
supplied by the Nigara Falls Power Co.,
and where the company has secured

n. Y. c. H. r. r. will run a track di-
rect to the company's works and in New
York there is market for everything
the company produces.
The production of tin is one OF the few
industries that shows steady increase in
price, diminishing supply and an in
creasng demand
The worlds production of tin is stead
lily decreasing as the old mines are sunk
deeper: it was 10000 long tons less last
year than 1t was five years ago. The
United States consumption increased from
39, ,000,0 900 pounds in 1894 to Il, 900, 600
pounds in 1899, while the price has ad-
vanced from IS cents in 1897 to IS cents
in 1900.

sTANLEY's TRAGEDY
Particulars of the Fatal Shooting of
Fred O. Miller.

Stanley, Wis, Jan. 60 -. Fred o.
Miller, manager of the Stanley steam laun-
dry, was shot dead at his home by his
father-in-law, Ira Stewart. The latter had
been in the employ OF the laundry COM
pany, but was discharged last week, it is
said, for drunkenness.
This led to quarrels between Miller and
Stewart, who lived with Miller. According
to the story, Miller finally told him he
must quit drinking or leave the house.
Stewart left town, but returned at noon,
going directly from the train to Miller's
house, where the family we're at dinner.
Stewart Immediately drew a revolver, say
ing: 'Tve got you now, Fred, and you
have got to die" following this with four
shots before members Of the family could
stop him. Three of the shots were ef-
fective and Miller lived but moment.
Stewart was Immediately arrested and
taken to the city Jail.
