The pump that has been doing duty at
the third level Of the Gum Tree mine has
been removed to the fourth level and will
today be started in hosting the water
from the bottom of the shaft in order to
enable the work in the slopes from the
crosscut to be prosecuted vigorously.
The change has necessitated a delay in
the work for several days, but from now
on it is expected that there will be no
more delays.

Manager G. K. Kimball. of the Old
Town mine, and +. A. Scheuber. Of Liv-
ingstone, Montana, have taken bond
and lease on the Lutz mine in Russell
gulch, adjoining the Old Town. The
Lutz has been lying Idle for the past II
years. The shaft is over 600 feet deep,
and as the efforts of the former owners
were all devoted to development work
and not production, there is an immense
amount of ground already blocked out
for stoping. The mine Is filed with
water, and after some timbering has been
done the future policy of operation will
be decided.

A contract will be let within few
weeks to drive the Perkins tunnel ahead
500 feet. The tunnel is in distance OF
1900 feet and no work has been done on
the heading since February year ago.
Some splendid veins have been opened
from which has been taken some good
smelling and milling ore. The tunnel is
driven for the purpose of opening group
OF rs clsims. the most of which are pat
ented and lie on the south slope OF Alps
mountain. The present depth from the
surface is about BOO feet, but when the
tunnel has been driven the additional 500
feet, it will attAin . depth Of over 1900
feet and will be under the apex Of the

Eight men arc employed by the con
tractors in driving the Burns Moore tun-
mel. The breast of the tunnel IS now
nearing and should cut some splendid
veins in the course of the next few weeks.
Even if the tunnel did not open single
ore body in its course it would be OF ines
timable advantage in the one feature
alone of draining the water from the rich
est cluster Of veins in the district, which
as for years been sadly neglected forthe
reason that 20 much water was enconnt-
cred on the surface that operation was
almost impossible and very Improbable
despite the rich ore bodies which today
are there but are under water. The
Burns Moore in its course will cut every
Ute creek vein and the portal will ulti-
mately become one of the greatest ship
ping points along Chicago creek. Tie
Barns-Moore will do for that section what
the Newhouse has done for Seaton

ableness of rates, it can readily hr
seen that these court decisions
practically wipe out the only power
the Commission was supposed to
have, aud limit its usefulness to
the collection and PRONUNCIATION Of
statistics.
While governmental control
over railroad charges through the
medium of the Interstate Commerce
Commission has been gradually
fading away, the general railroad
situation has undergone porteutuus
changes. Little independent ear
riers have been forced to the wall
and absorbed by their larger com
petitOrs, which in turn have com.
hincd with or sold out to other
larger competing systems, until to-
day. by this ccntrali2ntiou, the rail
transportation facilities of this
country are practically controlled
by scarce half n dozen different in
terests. BY these transitions, re
organizations, and combinations,
added burdens have not only been
placed upon the man who pays the
freight by reason of increases IN
the fixed charges or Indebtedness
of the railroads, but the public,
which now has greater need of in
tellieent and effective federal SUI
pervislon and regulation of railroad
charges, has less protection to-day
than previous to the enactment of
the present Interstate Commerce
law =
THE objection they make against
the proper Federal supervision of
rates by m expert commission con
firms the suspicion that railroad
rates need regulating. Either the
Government must assume nt once
an intelligent and comprehensive
control over the railroad charges
or prepare for absolute ownership
of the transportation facilities of
this country

TIE FALL WHEAT SITUATION
Notv nding the Drought II Is
Not Serious Except In Tcnncs-
see and Kentucky.

Chicago, Dec. 1.-B. w, Snow sums
up the wheat situation at the close
of November in the following:
There has been a shortage OF mois-
ture so far this season over nearly all
the wheat belt, serious in Kentucky
and Tennessee Except in these states
the amount OF irreparabe damage Is
slight. The plant has made less than
normal growth above ground, leaving
the casual observer to believe condi-
ton poor, but moderately dry fall
causes extra root growth in the effort
of nature to find moisture in the sub
soil.
THE present situation is not alarm
ing, and II the winter brings fair snow
protection and moisture for early
spring, the dry fall that forces extra
growth will have been a positive ad-
vantage to the crop. Hessian fly re-
ports are less serious now than n year
or two years ago"
