PATCHING THE BREACH.
Bragg Interest in the Central Montana
Company May Be Bought.


A telegram from Lewistown. this state,
to the Helena Record says it is probable
that settlement of the Wright Hragg
controversy in regard to the affairs OF
the Central Montana Mines company will
be reached very shortly. DIR. SchiAman
Of st. Paul, who is largely interested in
the New Year Gold Mines company, is
i'll Lewistown and is endeavoring to pur-
chase the Bragg interests in the Central
Montana company. G. NJ. Nelson u the
New Year company has gone to Cincin-
natl for the purpose Of arranging the
preliminaries Of the purchase, and, il
successful, the interests will probably
change hands next month.
The controversy between Wright and
Bragg as to who was entitled to manage
the Central Montana properties, which
ended in the appointment Of a receiver.
was the subject of much newspaper dis
cussion some time ago. but now that an
amfcabe adjustment is about to be eff
fected, it will be a source of much sat
isfaction among those interested in min
ing in Fergus county, as some of the
companys properties are known to be
among the best producers of the county,
and their active development will be of
great benefit to the mining interests
of this region.
The second shipment of bullion from
the new King-Barnes mill was deposited
in the Judith Basin bank at Lewistown
Saturday. The shipment consisted of
three bricks having a value of $4,000. The
steady production of the King Barnes
mill is now assured and it is likely that
the company will hereafter make from
three to four shipments Of bullion each
month.

MORE MONEY NEEDED.
Jack Waite Tells Shareholders How
It Can BE Raised

Shareholders in the Montana Copper
Mining company have been asked by j.
K. Waite, manager of the company's
property, to take more shares at the
price at which the other shares We're
sold them in order to provide money
with which to continue the work of de-
velopment. The property Is being
opened by three tunnels. It is located
on Mineral mountain, between the main
and north fork Of the Blackfoot river.
and which range is said to be traversed
by three parallel veins running east and
west. These veins, it is alleged, from 30
to $50 feet wide, show in the Outcrop
large bodies of low grade copper ore,
with good values of silver and gold.
One tunnel has been driven 400 feet to
cross the Copper World vein and tap the
lie Roi vein 1900 feet deep; another is in
615 feet and is expectedsto. tap the Mar
linspike when it has gone 1876 feet fur
Their; the third is in 40 feet and destined
to reach the Porto Rico vein when it
has gone an equal distance further. This
work has cost $4,000 for labor and it is
estimated that $4,000 more will complete
the tunnels.

STRUCK A LEDGE.
Vein Is on the Site of the New Federal
Building at Helena.

Helena, Mont, Nov. "a ledge Of free
milling gold ore was struck yesterday
while grading the foundation for the
United States federal building, which is
now under construction. The ledge is a
very strong one of iron stained quartz.
The government, when letting the con-
tract for the government building, ex-
plicitly stipulated that any finds of min
eral made by the contractor should go to
the government.
This is the second strike of rich ore
made within the Helena city limits
within the last 80 days. The ledge ex-

presence of even the small vein can be
more fully understood and appreciated.
The Farrell Property.


The Farrell Property.
Sinking is being prosecuted on the
property of Franklin Farrell with the
same determination as that which has
characterized it from the beginning, but
outside of the fact that every shirt
brings the work nearer the ore BODY
there is nothing in particular to enron
icle. Mr.. Farrell has invested about
s.. 100000 in the enterprise, an enormous
sum for a starter, but it will come back
again with good interest. The vein for
which he is sinking his No. shaft is
fully so feet wide and contains copper
ore of an average value of IS per cent.
The other shaft is not a great distance
from No. 8. and its bottom is still in
the wash. which is bad ground to work,
especially if there is much water in it.
At the Pacific.
Late reports from the Pacific. located
on the hillside between the entrance to
Park and Horse canyons. are to the eff
feet that the indications for striking a
body of copper within the next so or
100 feet are very flattering. 1t may not
however, be cut by the shaft but as
soon as the 500 mark is reached cross
cut will be driven to intercept 1t.
The surface ground in that section is
full of feeders-stringers of ore rich
enough for any use, but not large.
The Pacific is being worked by COM
pany having very little stock for sale.
1t is what might be termed close cor
poration Several of the large share
holders are Butte men who have I'M
limited faith in the ultimate outcome of
the enterprise and share the popular be-
lief that the entire east side will soon
be the wonder of the mining world.
Not All in One Spot.
Not all of the work of development on
the east side is confined to one spot. IT
covers an. area extending from the GEN.
ter of the valley on the west to a point
beyond the apex of the mountain at the
east, and from the Maud S. on the south
to line half a mile north of Park
canyon-several square miles. Some of
the work is being carried on by men who
have money enough to enable them to go
five miles into the earth if necessary.
while others have little save muscle and
pluck. But they are all at 1t just the
same. Over in Saratoga canyon the
rattle of the windlass can be heard on
all sides. Up in Horse canyon steam
hoists, windlasses and whims are in
use, and on top of the mountain directly
east on line with the great lodges of
copper ore below the putting engine rails

monotony of the sound of the creaking

DEVELOPMENT WORK ON EAST
SIDE PROGRESSING RAPIDLY.
TWO FEET OF ORE IN SINBAD
Operators of the Property Expect to
Tap Something Large Within
the Next 100 Feet-Well
Fixed for Winter.

Development work at the east side of
the flat and on the fiat continues With
unabated energy and the prospects for
opening up large bodies of copper ore
grow brighter with each succeeding day.
The majority of those who are delving
for the metal know exactly what they
are doing and at what depth success will
crown their efforts.
The shaft on the Sinbad, which prop
erty is being managed by Meyer GEM
berger, has reached depth of $50 feet
and in the bottom there is a vein of ore
two feet wide that assays about per
cent copper. 1t is pitching south ana
ten feet more Of depth will take it be-
yond the south side line of the shaft.
Up to Thursday Mr.. Genzberger sup
posed the vein was only a strlnger in
the granite which led into large vein
but on that day he examined it closely
and found the tale wall lining.
Il am not particularly excited over
the fact that we have vein," says Mr.
Genzberger. Il had my excitement
last July when, at depth of about 500
feet, we first struck the vein we now
have. The ore in it at that point as
sayed from Al to 60 per cent copper and
"a ounces of silver. We may all have
some more excitement later on, as we
expect to strike another vein at a depth
of about 600 feet. At the present time,
however, others are greatly elated over
what there is in sight.
LAS to the condition of the surface
equipment, 1t is in first class shape. We
have timber enough to last until this
time next year; plenty of powder and
candles, elegant machinery, fine accom-
modatiOns for the workmen and are
building a comfortable carpenter shop.
It is rather difficult to get supplies over
to that side during the winter and that
Is the reason We nave stocked up. All
in all, we have the best showing of any
east side property just now"
The Sinbad is in direct line with the
Spectator, located on the hill at the
west Of the fiat, and if the veins of the
east side cross the fiat they cannot
escape the east side miners pick. 1t is
known positively that veins south Of the
Spectator dip with the sag in the
wash-covered granite Of the valley and
extend into the hills towards the rising
sun, and it is believed that those Of the
extreme north and center of the great
copper belt do likewise. 1t is true that
the vein in the Sinbad is small at the
present depth, but when it is stated that
the showing in some of the large hill
mines was not much, if any, better at
similar depth the Importance of the

SOME REASONS WHY.

That the RIO GRANDE LINES is the
most popular route to the EAST Is
evinced by the fact that the greatest
percentage OF transcOntinental and Pa
citc Coast travel use it.
WHY?
BECAUSE
It Is the only transccntinental line
passing through Salt Lake City, the
Modern Zion.
It's scenic attractions are unsurpassed
in the world: no European trip Of equal
length can compare with it.

| Optimism is taking the place OF conserva-
tism among the military men here, the
cause being the numerous surrenders cap"
lures and destruction of insurgent camps,
| coupled with the increasing u Outstanding
| of the Americans intentions among the ma
tives. Then too, the propagation of the
principles of the federal party, and the

the military authorities, and that the carry
ing out of the terms OF General MacAr-
thurs proclamation, CHASING all VINO 90

as rebels and traitors. are having pointed
effect.
The cutting of communications and sup
plies has destroyed the remnants of the
insurgent organization. The inhabitants
of the towns are dislnclined to any longer
contribute secretly to hopeless cause,
and it is generally believed that the pa

Representatives of the central Catholics,
at a meeting here, spoke on the subject or

adoption Of amendments providing for the

They argued that native teachers could
achieve better results than Americans, and
that the public schools would be far more
successful if the prevailing religious GUS
toms were not disturbed.

POSTAL SERVICE REFORMS.
of the Congress.
sional joint Comml ssIon.


The postal commission of the House and
Senate, which has been investigating postal
matters for the last two years, made its
report yesterday. The commission unanI-
mously reports in favor of excluding from
the second-class mail rate first books,
whether bound or unbound; second, news
papers and periodicals unsold sent by a
news agent to another news agent or re-
turned TO the publisher; third, sample
copies OF newspapers above a certain small
fixed proportion Of the circulation.
The commission also unanimously re-
ports against the continuance of the sys-
TEN of transmitting mails in the pneumatic
tubes under present conditions. The COM
mission unanimously reports that neither
change In letter postage nor the estab-
lishment of a system Of parcels post is
practicable under existing conditions of
revenue and expenditure. even II otherwise
desirable, upon which no opinion is ex-
pressed.
Upon the question of railway mail pay
there are five reports
First. A report signed by Senators WOLF
colt and Allison, which declares that the
present rate of railway mail pay is not ex-
cessive and ought not to be changed ex-
priations for special facilities, which. II de-
clares. should be discontinued
Second. A report signed by Mr.. Loud,
concurring with the last named report. ex-
cept that II recommends the adoption OF
railway mail payments in accordance with
space occupied instead Of by the methods
now prescribed by law.
Third. A report signed by Mr.. Moody,
which declares that upon the evidence the
railway mail pay is not excessive. but rec
ommends further investigation as to the
prevailing methods Of loading postal cars
and inquiry into the question whether the
methods may not be corrected so as to re-
suit in a saving without injury to the car
rler. In this report Mr.. Catchings concurr.
Fourth. A report signed by Senator Mar
tin and Mr.. Catchings, dissenting from the
views of the other members OF the conn
mission with regard TO the discontinuancs
Of appropriations for special facilities.
Fifth. A report signed by Mr.. Fleming,
in which he states that he thinks there
should be some reduction in the present
rate Of railway mail pay, either by per
cent reduction generally, and a stu further
reduction on the routes where the volume
of traffic is greatest, or. in case these suE-
gestions are not adopted, by change in
the special payment for postal cars. Mr..
Fleming also holds that the government
should pay for the transportation OF post
office officials when travelling as passen-
gers In passenger cars. Free transporta.
ton for mail men should, he holds, be con-
fined to mail cars.
Senator Chandler does not join In any re.
