tent and aggravated case Of weakness.
Miss Ida N. Snyder, Of No. 535 Der,

Wine of Cardui and she says it helped

Of the respect and trust her fellow

sistsi of Messrs. Hand, Burch and

lie works. Mr.. Weymouth is presid-
ing ofiicer at the Investigation.
The proceedings, which are being
held In the committee rooms adjoin-

J. III. Feddens, John Hart and E. Il.
Chapman appearing before the board
and personally making the charges
which were anticipated by the. petit
ton filed some days ago for the re-
moval of Mr.. Daniel. The witnesses
charged that Mr.. Daniel had used his
position for the promotion Of his pri-
vate interests. They alleged that he
had worked his own teams on city
street work, that he had hauled earth
from the city streets to fill in his
own yard and that he had worked
teams on city streets that belonged
to his brother.

Councilman Burch conducted the
examination Of witnesses for the COM
plainants. Police Commissioner Root,
who is over Mr.. Daniel, and who be-
lieves that Mr.. Daniel has been per-
fectly honest In performing his work,
conducted the. examination for the de-
Tense.
Beyond introducing petition
which he said was signed by about
500 citizens and business men, Mr..
Daniel introduced no testimony today
in his own behalf The petition filed
by Mr.. Daniel with. the board was in
the nature of a testimonial testifying
to his fitness for the position he is
filing, and commencing the work that
he has done for the city Mr. Daniel
claimed this afternoon that each of
the men who appeared before the
board this morning against him was
a man whom he had discharged.
Mr.. Daniels friends in the Federal
Labor union also insist that the union
as body has nothing to do with the
charges that have been filed, although
the compliments are members of that
union.
Mr.. Daniel will introduce his de-
Tense tomorrow morning. Ex-Police
Commissioner Lilienthal is to be one
of the witnesses called by Mr. Daniel.

POPE SEEMS BE TER

{ ROME, July s.-Whlle II is Of

pope's condition Is unchanged, it is
learned from an authoritative source
that his holiness lies balanced be-
tween life and death and the pro-
lonsation OF his existence IL consid-
cred miracle. He is dying piece by
piece. while his mind reigns supreme
volponi. secretary Of the consistory
and who would be secretary of the
conclave to elect the new pope died
this morning. His death at this time
10 remarkable coincidence, as he
was one Of the last to be honored by
the dying prelate.
A reporter for the newspaper La
Fatrie was also stricken by apoplexy
while awaiting news Of the pope this
morning and died shortly after he
was taken from the vatican.
The pope has not yet been informed
of Volponi's death, as he was warm
personal friend and it is feared the
shock would have bad effect.
After quite an extended delay,
which caused much anxiety, the ply
sicians issued bulletin late this
morning which causes an unfavorable
impression, 1t reads:
'The night was tranquil one for
the pope. much of 1t being spent In

PORTLAND. Ore, July s.-Patrick
Clark of Spokane. multi-millionaire
and mining expert, is in Portland to-
day on his way to the Yosemite val
ley. California. where he will spend
the summer. His wife and seven
children accompany him.
Mr.. Clark recently completed a trim
through the ore-producing districts OF
southern Oregon and northern Cali
fornia and Is at the present time
working the Blue Ledge property on
the Applegate river, Oregon. under
bond.
Il have a small force of men at
work on the Blue Ledge property"
he said. but they have brought to
light nothing of a startling nature
and I can not say that personally
regard southern Oregon as likely to
become even a moderately rich copper
producing district. I have visited
several sections and what have seen
does not prejudice me in favor of the
country. although all miners know
that the future may contain almost
anything in the way of possibilities"

sight. He bases his calculations on a
measurement of $500 feet in length
and depth of 900 feet, all in ore.
He points out that the company is
mining and shipping this ore to its
smelter for $1.20 per ton and smelt-
Ing and refining the copper matte at
$1.s5. In other words, the CRANKY Is
making copper around cents per
pound.
The company is at present running
four furnaces at the Grand Forks
smeiter and will add two more. The
six will be capable OF treating 1000
to 25oo tons per day. with copper
selling at say 14h cents per pound,
II is estimated that there should be
about $l.so per ton on ore treatd, or
at the rate OF 81 .2so.ooo to 1890. 900
annually, which would be equivalent
to something over dollar per share
on the issued stock.
The cheapness with which the enor-
nous ore bodies can be handled with
surface quarrying and steam shovels
and the fact that the ore is practically
self-fuxing leads to the belief that
the CRANKY is making copper cheaper
than anywhere else.
