A CHANGE IN OWNERSHIP.

For several years the ownership
of what is known as "The Fluol
Spar Company" has been divided
\. between Marion and st. Louis par.
ties. While there was never any
absolute friction, it was thought
the better way for the Marion in.
terests to hold the entire control
On the 18th of June the purchase
was made of Mr.. Squiers' stock,
and "The Fluor Spar Company
is now a strictly Marion institu-
tion. The lack of spar in the Ken
tuoky Mining Company's proper
Ties will be more than compensat-
I'D for in the finely developed pro-
perty known as the John Hodge
mine. which belongs to the Fluor
Spar Company. The largely in
creased demand, at enhanced val
ues'fov huor spar, will no doubt
prompt the company to install ma
chinery for an increased produc-

BOOMING
Are Our Mines and Wide. a wake
Are the Miners.
HEWSY MINING PERSONALS.

The prediction of the PRESS
that Marion would become one of
the great producers and shippers
of zinc ores is being realized.
From one property alone a few
miles west of the city, nearly a car
load per day is being shipped to
the shelters. The amount mined
on this one properly is very much
in excess of the shipments, and if
the mining should be pushed, half
a dozen cars per day could be de-
livered to the railroad. This zinc
ore is one of the highest grade
carbonates that nature produces
Its equal as to productiveness and
value does not exist outside of the
famous Frankline mine in New
Jersey. Messrs Blue d Num-, who
own this property, have christen-
ed it the "Old Jim" mine. 1t has
been largely due to these gentle
men that the mineral resources OF
Crittenden county have been de-
veloped. For many years, through
all sorts of disoouragements, they
have kept steadily at it. Believ.
ing fully in their Judgment as to
the value of the mineral here they
have always shown their faith by
their works. When Martin Con-
yer, with the first load of zinc ore
reached the railroad depot there
followed in his train ten or fifteen
more wagons loaded to the limit
with zinc. This was a month OF
more ago and every day since the
roads have been lined with loaded
wagons conveying zinc from the
"Old Jim" mine to the railway
freight cars. The PRESS wishes
TO be put on record as stating that
John Blue and Glenn Num- not
only deserve but are entitled to
all the good fortune that has SO
lar attended their efforts. Mod
ern machinery for raising the ore
in cars, steel rails for conveying to
the loading platforms, engine,
pumps, piping, and hose are being
put in position, and the output
can be made almost anything the
owners desire, as the vein ranges
from 10 to 4Ol feet wide Half a
dozen teams. and scrapers were at
work yesterday scraping the soil
from the top of the vein, scarcely
four feet underneath.

THE KOREA LAUNCED
Successful Launching of Largest Ves-
sci Ever Built In America.

: Washington, March 23.-The Korea,
which was launched today at the New
port News Shipbuilding Company's
works, bears the distinction of being
up to date the largest steam vessel ever
built on this side of the Atlantic. With
a length of 572 feet, 4 inches, and a
beam of 63 feet, she will dispIace Is, 600
tons on draft of q feet. Some idea
of the size of the Korea may be deriv
ed from the fact that from the top to
the bottom of the bare hull is a dis
tance of 40 feet, while the distance
around her rail is nearly quarter of
a mile. She is to be fitted with engines
of $4,000 horse power, sufficient to pro-
pei her at a speed of 20 knots. The
Korea will accommodate 1,400 passen-
gers Of whom 200 will be first class cab
in passengers. She is designed for the
Pacific Mail Steamship Company to ply
between San Francisco and Hong Kong.

WRECK OF THE RIO JANEIRO
United States Inspectors Report on the
Question OF Responsibility Therefor

Q. F. Bolles and ]. K Bulger, United
States inspectors of hulls and boilers,
have handed down their decision on the
responsibility for the wreck Of the city
Of Rio de Janeiro. February 22nd. at
the entrance of the Golden Gate. Their
decision places the blame for the
wreck upon the late Captain Ward and
Pilot Jordan. The pilot being a state
officer, is not under the jurisdiction of
the United States INSPECTORS and they
have no power to punish him.
The inspectors blame the chief engi-
neer for inattention to his duties and
revoke his license as chief engineer. He
had ten white men in his charge and
the inspectors are Of the opinion that IL
Chief Engineer Herlihy had called this
force on deck to man the boats, many
lives would have been saved.

SIGNS OF LAROR TROUBLES
Between the Mill Owners and the
Operatives in England.

London. March 23-The Speaker to-
day says there are unmistakable signs
of more trouble between the masters
and the operatives in the cotton trade
A period of trade activity has been fol-
lowed by reaction, accelerated by
the high prices of raw cotton and other
materials. a poor demand from India
and an almost complete stoppage of
buying from China. The Lancashire
spinners and weavers have held out
longer than their rivals in the United
States or continent. but the rapid clos
ing down of the mills shows their turn
is coming, and as the American crop is
likely to be insufficient even for the re-
duced consumption. there is not much
prospect Of low Level quotations for
raw cotton to invigorate the demand
for yarn and cloth. If some agreement
whereby wages may be adjusted ac-
cording to the state Of trade is not
soon concluded declining profits will
force the masters to reduce wages.

Another rumor is current concerning
the absorption of the Seaboard Air Line
by the Louisville and Nashville rail-
road.
For the first time since these stories
have been af1oat there seems TO be some
ground for the rumor. A few days ago
there was a conference between Milton
81. Smith, president Of the Louisville
and Nashville: 7. vandenburg, first
vice president OF the Louisville and
Nashville. and V. E. McBee. superin-
tendent Of the Seaboard Air Line. The
conference was held at the office of Mr..
Smith, and. while no information con-
cerning it has been given out, those
who know Of the conference are in
clined to the belief that Mr.. McBee was
called here to make certain statements
regarding the business OF the road.

this afternoon. At a meeting in the

cepted the proposed arbitration, pro-
vided it was approved by the general

sented to conceal the troops. the coun-
cillors promising to influence the strik-
ers to cease further disorders.
