The Copper Gave Mining Company
Starts up in Business--Local Men
Interested -Fine Prospects
for its Future.

AhtNiSStSu II IOSpCCtS
for its Future.
The promoters of the Copper
Cave Mining Company, composed of
j. B. Crane, w. r. Wilcox, j. w.
Case, G. HI. Case, N. j. Wilcox, E. E.
Lufkin and j. f. Crawford. met at
the Office of The Sun last Saturday
and perfected their organization by
the election of officers and the adop-
ton of Bylaws. J.. F. Crawford was
chosen president, w. r. Wilcox vice
president and E. E. Lufkin secretary
and treasurer. j. B. Crane was made
superintendent.
Every one familiar with the min
ing property owned by this company
thinks very highly of it. The com
pany authorized its superintendent to
purchase supplies and hire men and
proceed to develop the claim. The
shaft is already down fifty feet and
those who have inspected it are NOR
ally certain that but a few feet fur
ther will develop a valuable body of
copper ore.
The specimens of ore from this
claim is exceedingly rich in both cop
per and gold and are in all respects
similar to the ore taken from the Elk
Mountain mine, which is now being
developed by the Elk Mountain Min
ing Company with such remarkable
success.
25,0OO shares of the treasury stock
of this company is now being offered
at 5 cents. After this is sold the next
25,0OO will not be offered for less than
10 cents. Only a limited amount of
this stock will be put on the market,
simply enough to furnish funds to
develop the mine, for the owners are
confident that they have "a big thing
and intend to work accordingly. In a
short time a prospectus will be issued
showing this property and its extern
sions and the parallel claims upon
which it holds an option.

Creamery, Dairy and Market Garden.

W. L. Kuykendall and Frank NJ.
Nevin have exchanged ranches, Mr..
Kuykendall taking charge of the
Nevins property, some five or six
miles down the river below town, and
Mr.. Nevin taking charge of the Kuy-
kendall ranch which lies on the west
side of the road on Spring creek.
Mr.. Nevin is very busy putting to-
gether the log dwelling that formerly
stood on the Walter ranch on Cow
creek, which has been moved down to
the Spring creek property. The ice
house is completed and is being filled
with ice, and the milk house will soon
be ready for occupancy. 1t is the in
tention of Mr.. Nevin to start a cream
cry, dairy and market garden and to
supply this town, and as much of the
upper country as possible, with but
ter, milk and vegetables. The dairy
will be stocked with forty cows to be-
gin with and this number will be in
creased as the needs of the communi-
ty require. 1t is expected, with the
improved machinery that will be used
for extracting the cream from the
milk, that 800 pounds of butter can
be make each week.

Not Lost, But Found.

The Rawlins Journal in its last is.
sue has a long account of the suppos.
ed loss of j. B. Hassett and "a man by
the name of M%errell, up near Battle
Lake, in a snow storm. As we saw
MIR. Hassett ON the streets of our city
this week alive, and appearing very
much alive, too, we conclude that he
and Mr.. Merrell must have found
themselves and We're feeling good
over the result. But newspapers will
get off, now and then, just like indi.
viduals, and the mistake of the Jour
nat is only natural under the circum-
stances.

MAMMOTH COPPER MINING CO.
Another Enterprise of Importance
Will Operate Copper Properties on
the Head Waters of Jack Creek.

The Mammoth Copper Mining Com
pany was organized in Rawlins last
week, with E. G. Epperson, L. C.
Cook, r. Z. Mccoy, Robert Friedman,
R. H. Young, Frank E. Rumph and
A. G. Epperson as promoters. THE
articles of incorporation place the cBp-
ital stock at 81 100000 at shares of 81
each. The company owns the MANN
outh Group, consisting of five copper
claims on the head of Jack creek, in
the Sierra Madre range. The work
ings consist of a tunnel on n of
these claims, which has been run into
the mountain to a depth of 63 feet.
A VIM has been sunk at this point,
cutting the vein and uncovering a
body of low grade ore II feet in
width.
The owners are quite sure that this
is the same vein on which is located
the Syndicate, Black Diamond and
properties owned by the Octavia Tun-
mel Co. on the west, and that it runs
east, through the head of Cow creek,
and on to the Kurtz Chatterton mine,
which they believe to be the outcrop-
ping of the same lead.
The directors of the company are:
r. 2. Mccoy, Frank E. Rumph, A. c.
Epperson, A. G.. Epperson and Rob
ert Friedman. They will meet in
Rawlins on the 9Th of February when

Washington, July 9.-Treasury officials
state that their information was to the
effect that the men who robbed the Great
Northern tram at Wagner, Mont, last
Wednesday secured $4,000 in incomplete
national bank notes, which were shipped
on June % to the National Bank of Mon
tana at Helena. 1t appears that there
were 500 sheets of these unsigned notes,
of four notes to a sheet, three tens and
one twenty
The bank numbers ran serially from
1901 to $4,000, both inclusive and the
treasury numbers were Y-934, $40 to Y
935, l45. The bank numbers were printed
in the lower left hand corner of the notes
and the treasury numbers in the upper
right hand corner. The charter number
was 576l, printed in bold face, brown fig
ures across the face of each note. 1t was
stated at the department that as soon as
notes of this character are shipped to the
bank they are regarded by the law as in
circulation and are redeemabe by the
government as well as the bank, which
mas on deposit treasury bonds to cover
their redemption.
As the express companies are under
bond for the safe delivery of all shipments
OF this character they alone are response
bic, so the government and the bank are
fully protected from loss.

TRADE REPORT.

Bradstreets report of trade for lao,
week follows:
Hot weather, holidays and stock tab.
ing, the first named in particular have
limited trade in the period under re.
view and caused practical suspension
in industrial activity in many cities
Against this seemingly unfavorahla
feature, however, is to be noted tho
fact that a good business has been done
In all kinds of seasonable products at
retail, and the check to trade at whole.
sale has been largely postponement.
rather than actual elimination of posi-.
Bile business. The crop situation has on
the whole improved, and corn and cot.
ton, the two leading crops most in cues.
ton at present, have gained some of
the ground lost early in the season nv
cold weather. The wheat crop is GER
tainly in favorable condition, because
harvesting has gone forward rapidly.
and prices on the whole have been quite
satisfactory.
Corn shows the heaviest advance for
many weeks or for years past on re.
ports of dry, hot weather damage, aid.
ed, however, by speculative manipula.
ton and fairly good export business.
Wheat is lower on liquidation, induced
by good crop reports, and despite con.
iirmation of the heavy deficit in the
German crop, the poor French crop and
of the short yield in other countries in
Europe. Oats are higher, owing to the
reports for domestic crop prospects,
Hog products were strong earlier but
broke and finished lower on the week
on liquidation, caused by bear raids
The feature in the retail trade last
week has been the very large distribu-
ton in all classes of summer goods,
induced by the hot spell. Wholesale
distribution has been comparatively
limited, but it is to be noted that west
ern jobbers have experienced a good
reasserting demand, based on hot
weather conditions. The textile situa-
ton is fully as favorable as a week ago.
The boot and shoe trade is in good
shape.
June failures were the smallest of
any this year, but liabilities were
swelled by few heavy suspensions of
banks, and were the heaviest for more
than year past. Considering the in
creased volume of business in the past
two years the six months record is a
favorable one, as the total number OF
failures for the year was 4,465, with
liabilities of $66, 1885 and assets of
little less than one-half this amount.
Wheat (including -four shipments
for the week aggregated 3,787, 639 bush
els.

DIR. j. w. Watt Is Dead.

Portland, July DR.. j. w. Watt,
who was a presidential eector of the re-
publican ticket in 1876, died at his home
in Lafayette. DR.. Watt came into great
prominence from the fact that Governor
Grover OF Oregon, a democrat, refused to
issue a certificate to him on the ground
that he was a fourth class postmaster at
the time of his election. For a time it
was thought that the election of president
OF the United States hinged on Watts
vote.

Labor Strike at RossIand.

Rossland b. c., July n.-At Z o'clock
Thursday morning from 900 to 1000 miners
employed at the Rossland-Great Western
mines will be on a strike. This is the
calculation of the miners union, which
took such action last night. 1t remains
to be seen how many men will accept the
union order, but the presumption is that
the mines will be closed for a short time
at least, while both sides prepare for the
contest. The statement is made that
many members of the organization and
nonunion members will refuse to go on
strike, and the mines have guaranteed to
protect all such.
The Centre Star and War Eagle to-
gether with other working mines, such as
the Iron Mask l. X. L.. Homestake and
Velvet, are not affected as yet. The union
men say their case is still under advise
ment
