OhiO-TOIIOpnlI.

During the past week there was
one days suspension of work on this
property TO allow repairs. The casa
drift is out 243 feet and shows pOr-
phyry of a highly silicilied nature
which looks very much like pure
quartz. The formation carries some
good stringers and seems to be rap
idly changing to quartz. On the 40
foot level the south crosscut is out
445 feet from the measuring point
and the ground is very favorable. 1t
seems to consist chiefly of blocky por-
phyry with the slips running east
and west, and dipping to the north
at an angle of about 80 degrees. In
the north crosscut there are streaks
and lunches of quartz carrying low
values. This crosscut is out l6i feet
in ledge formation.

When asked for a statement re-
garding this property, Secretary
Dunlap stated that the work is pro
crossing favorably.
The Midway.
Drifting has been started on the
ledge, which was encountered forty
feet north OF the shaft in the north
crosscut. Some good ore has been
taken out and the ledge in the south
crosscut also looks exceedingly well.

The shaft being sunk on this prop
erty is down sixty feet, at which
point operations have been tempo

TOnOpah Superior.

Aobopdh EouptIIoEs
This property lies one mile south
west OF the Mizpah ledge. The com
pany is working two shifts and is
making good progress. The tunnel
is in tifty-hve feet and has struck
stringers from the main ledge, which
assay as high as $478 in gold and
silver. At forty-nine feet from the
mouth, the tunnel passes through
a ledge, the average assay of which
is s789 in gold and silver. After the
tunnel has been driven forty i've feet
further, it is expected that the main
tenfoot ledge will be reached. The
groupings of this ledge show an assay
of 1854 in gold and $40 in silver. 1t
is estimated that it will take about
sixty days to complete the remain
ing forty five feet. The company
will then be ready to begin shipping
ore. The predominating formation
encountered thus far is hematite of
iron. This property has attracted
considerable attention within the past
few weeks. 1t has been visited by
mining men, and the concensus of
opinion seems to be that the Superior
will shortly become one of the chief

prices charged by the independent oper-
ators, is in reality furnishing the inde-
pendent operators the coal and cars
with which to get it to market.
1t was testified to before the senate
investigating committee that to every
ten carloads of coal mined by the rail-
roads there arrived from forty to fifty
cars Of high priced coal sent to Wash
ington by the independent operators.
This testimony alone was so convinc-
ing Of the existence Of the conspiracy
among the operators that the senate
committee will devote its entire investi-
cation to establishing the fact.
Congress will endeavor to ascertain
exactly how the independent operators,
who own aud produce less than 10 per
cent of the anthracite output, can now
sell to the highest bidder 90 per cent OF
the anthracite for daily consumption.
The operators will also be asked why
the great railroad mining corporations
cannot send more than one car of coal
to the coal-famine sections az against.
forty and fifty cars of independent coal.

To Receive Full Wages.

Orders have been issued from the
Office of General Superintendent George
w. Creighton, of the Pennsylvania
Railroad, to pay to all the company's
employees who served in the National
Guard on strike duty in the coal regions
last fall the wages they would have
made had they been at home and worked
full time. The amonnt of money to be
distributed in this manner will ag-
gregate $4,000. This is an entirely new
departure and is taken to mean that the
railroad company intends to encourage
its employees to become members of the
National Guard.

Admiral Melville to continue his services
at the head of the bureau until his com
mission expires on August 9, 1903.

CONSPIRACY Is ALLEGED.

1t is predicted that conspiracy be-
tween the Coal Trust and the independ-
ent operators to keep up prices, in order
to recoup strike losses, will be shown
by the investigation started in the
United States senate and house. AL
ready summonses have been issued by
the senate committee to compel the at
tendance of all the independent oper-
ators, together with the representatives
of the great railroad companies which
control the transportation and output Of
anthracite.
Congress is satisfied the present de-
porabe condition existing throughout
the eastern part of the United States is
due entirely to the Coal Trust or rail-
roads which mine coal. 1t is asserted
positively that the Coal Trust is selling
It's coal through the independent oper-
ators in order that a higher price may
be received for it from the consumer

COAL PRICES
co SKYWARD
Local Consumers Must Pay
More for Fuel.
Rates at Surrounding COL
'lieries Advanced This
Morning - Production Of
Anthracite for the Year.

Tne price Of anthracite to local con-
sumers took another jump skyward this
morning at the few colieries where coal
can be obtained. Coke Bros. & Co.,
after weeks refusal to sell at any
figure, reopened their schutes today to
local drivers. Nothing but pea coal will
be sold, and the price OF this size leaped
from 81 rs per ton to So 25 at Drifton
breaker, an advance OF 81. so.
At Upper Lehigh the price of stove
and chestnut went up from 20 cents to
% cents per 100 pounds at the breaker.
Markle & Co. continue to refuse coal
except to persons employed at their col
ieries. Employees are served at the old
rate OF SO 50 for a two-horse wagon load
of about $500 pounds. All of this firms
coal is going to the New England states,
to relieve the intense suffering in that
section.
AT other collieries in the Lehigh re-
gion, where coal is being sold to local
consumers, increases varying from 25
w V~ q tob di itpOi'tu.
Throughout the country at large the
coal famine is causing CONSERVATION and
many prominent men are advising dras-
tic measures to obtain relief for the
thousands who are suffering.
Agents OF the coal-carrying roads are
blaming the individual operators for the
increase in price and the miners for the
shortage, alleging that the latter have
not yet finished celebrating the holidays,
but this statement is shown to be false
by the official reports of the output.
The heavy increase in price at tide
water has not been caused entirely by
the individual operators, as they pro-
duce only small percentage OF the
coal sent to market, and the charge
against them for being wholly respons-
Bile for the advance falls when it be-
comes known that with few exceptions
the individuals sell their product to the
carrying companies.
The production for December was
5000, 431 tons, as against 3,623, ,453 tons
for the same period In 1901. For 1902
the total output was 1900, $50 tons, as
against SO, SOS, ,601 tons for the previous
year. The output for 1902 was the
smallest that has been produced for
many years
The output last week was about the
maximum, and it is believed the pro-
duction this month will be fully as large
as in December. Whenever the output
is above 5000, 900 tons month the
mines have been worked to their full
capacity, and the records show that this
large production, thanks to the miners,
has been maint tained since the general
resumption took place.
Up to the time Of the strike the pro-
duction exceeded that of the previous
year. Since the miners bave returned
to work all the coal companies have
been getting out large amount.
The following table shows the number
of tons taken to market by each carry

Death of Father ParisOt.

A telegram received by the Oblate
Fathers of this city today brings the
sad news of the death Of Rev. Father
P. F. Parisot, o. NJ. L, which &C.
CURED at San Antonio this morning.
Father Parisot was for nearly half
a century missionary priest on
this frontier, being stationed at
Brownsville the greater part Of the
time. He was born in France in
1927, and was ordained a priest in
1852 in France, having celebrated
his golden jubilee at San Antonio
last year. He came to Brownsville
in 1857, and left here a few years
ago having been stationed since at
Castroville, Texas.
Father Parisot was distinguished
among his fellow workers in the
missionary field by his long and ar
duous service and by the active
part he took in the upbuilding of
the Catholic church in Brownsville
and the surrounding country. 1t
was largely through his efforts that
the handsome Prof. Cathedral of this
city was built. and he was also the
founder of St. Joseph's College, the
well known boys school of Browns
vile. He was greatly loved by his
parishioners, who regretted it very
much when he was removed from
Brownsville some years ago, and
who are deeply grieved now to learn
of the passing away of the aged and
venerable Father who was so many
years their religious counsellor.
For the better part of half a cen
fury, he was in their midst minis
tering to them in health and in
sickness. Father Parisot was the
author of an interesting volume en-
titled Fifty Years a Missionary"
relating his experiences as a mis-
sionary on this frontier.
A solemn service for the repose
of the soul of the deceased Father
will be held at the Catholic Church
in this city on Friday, the 18th. in
tant.
On Saturday the 18TH, another
solemn requiem service will be
held in memory of the late Father
Esteban Vignolle, o. NJ. l., who
was also one of the pioneer priests
of the Catholic mission at Browns
vile, and who died year ago.
