Prairie Digeines Sold.

X. A. Hines, Of this city, who with
Peter Helmer, formerly owned the
Prairie Diggings mine, early this
week transferred his interests In that
property to John Harrer, trustee for
the Hoosier Boy Gold Mining com.
pany, the consideration for his entire
interest In the water right, mine and
mill being $1,000. This gives the
Hoosier Boy company full control Of
the property and II is understood that
operations will soon be begun.
Since they first secured bond on
the property they equipped 1t with
twenty five stamp milling plant.
which is equal to any other mill of
like capacity In the country. The
continuous operation of the plant
will necessitate the employment of
Il force Of twenty men and will
put considerable money into circula-

individual ore shoots to the detriment
of general development work. The
plan has been thorough and systematic
and all the money the
mine has earned up to the present
has been applied to this end.
The property is one of the best de-
vel oped in the district and is now on
a paying basis. The high grade ore
Is now being sacked and shipment
will be ready in a short time.

Postoffice Frauds Subject of Discus
sion In Both Houses.
Washington, Dec. 9.-The recent In
vestigation into frauds in the postof-
flee department was the base OF q
sharp debate in the senate yesterday
by Mr.. German and MI. Lodge. The
discussion arose over a motion by MI.
Lodge to refer to the committee on
postoffces the resolution introduced
by Mr.. Penrose looking to a senate In
vestigation into the conditions In the.
department. Mr.. German ~intirnated
that the investigation by the depart
ment had been partisan in character.
and said counter charges had been
made against the men who had made
it. Mr.. Lodge defended the depart
ment's work and declared it was far
more effective than a congressional In
quiry would be. The resolution went
over without action.
Mr.. Teller made a speech in opposl-
ton to the Cuban reciprocity bill.
Senator Clapp spoke briefly and said
the senate had absolute power in max
ing treaties.
The house authorized the commit
tee on postof11ces and post roads to
request the postmaster general to sup
ply the committee with papers in con-
nection with the recent investigation
of the postof1ce department.
The house also instructed the judi
ciary committee to make inquiry and
report whether the Isle of Pines can
be coded to Cuba without the concur
rent action of the house and senate.
