One reason there will be no further

Is quite difference between Mr.. Nc
Intyre and the smelters. II Is more than
probable that he will run the ore
through the mill. The bins at the mill
contain about 1000 tons, and there Is

HIDDEN the superintendent, has been
somewhat hampered In his work by

ages Asked.
{ ScE1IvyEt

A complaint filed against the Silver
King Mining company In the Federal
court this morning contains recital Of
thrilling interest as TO what miner
sometimes Is compelled 10 endure,
Michael UHagan is the complainant,
He asks for s2O.5OO for injuries sus-
talned on Jan. last In the depths OF
the Silver King, On that date, with
other miners, o'Hagan made ready a
blast OF nine holes and lighted the fuse.
Then, as Is often the custom, he rushed
to the hoist, boarded 1t, ana gave the
engineer the signal 10 haul him up out
Of danger. But the cage, II Is alleged.
rose only three feet and stuck. The
miner was directly exposed to the blast.
and the only possible means OF escape
was to climb to the top Of the cage
and cling onto the cable by which II
was suspended. With alacrty born of
desperation O'Hagan started to accom-
plish this purpose, but before he was
secure, the first shot went of. The
conclusion knocked him down on his
back, leaving him helpless, and for the
next two minutes he endured the agony
that would naturally result from hav-
ing the remaining eight holes exploded
almost In his face.
Partially covered with dirt and rock,
and severely injured about the back
and limbs, the miner was still helpless.
He lay on his back. the complaint al
leges, for a long while breathing the
poisonous gases that resulted from the
explosion, until nearly unconscious. The
accident left him nervous and ply
steal wreck, II Is alleged. and for the
remainder of his life the plaintiff will
be unable to perform manual labor.
Negligence ON the part Of the COM
pany N allowing the cage 10 become
useless IL charged. Attorneys Rogers
and Street and Henry Shields repre-
sent the plaintiff.

DEMURRER ovERRULED IN THE
SUIT AGAINST PLANTATION
AGENTS Fol- DREDGING.

Judge De Bolt heard argument this
morning in the case of Clark & Henery
against II. Hackfeld & Company and
Castle & Cooke, General A. S. Hartwell
appearing for plaintiffs and Kinney
Mechanism & Cooper for defendants.
The suit is for $4,000 alleged to be due
to plaintiffs on account of an agree
ment made in behalf of Eva and Oahu
plantations to pay that sum on COM
pletion of the work of dredging Pearl
harbor channel.
The defendants filed a demurrer prin-
cipaIy on the ground that the $26 600
had been guaranteed, if at all, by the
plantation companies, and not by de-
PENDANTS. After hearing argument
this morning De Bolt overruled the de-
