Montana Dividend.

Reports from Tonopah, say the
Salt Lake papers, foretell a most
substantial Offering at the counters
of the Montana Mining company next
month, and while the amount has not
been decided on nor the day fixed it
is said that it will not be less than
100000 1t is said of the COM
pany's stocking, indeed, that its
contents have been sweiled to
approximately 100000, this sum
derived from ores that have been
taken out in the prosecution of de-
velopment, The shares on yester.
days market advanced to 81. so, a
pretty compliment to the manage
ment of Charles E. Knox, who has
presided over the undertaking from
the first.

PLOT AGAINST
MONTANA STOCK
Contemplate Scheme Is
Exposed.
A Gang COnSpire to Sell Short 100000
ShareS-"WOuld Have Seriously
Injured the Camp.

This week has witnessed the dis
closure and defeat of contemplate
plot to depreciate by trickery the
value Of Montana. .Tonopah stock.
The conspiracy had been Matching
for over two weeks, the prime mover
here being Barton Pittman, a brok-
err, who recently went 10 San Fran
cisco TO secure the necessary finan-
cial backing and the cooperation
Of other brokers. Acting on the
well known disincination of the Mon
tana- Tonopah Co. to show visitors
through the mine while the hoist is
at present taxed 10 its utmost capa-
city, Pittman placed 800 shares of
stock in the hands of Dan w. Ed
wards, State agent for the Aetna
Life Insurance CO., which stock was
transferred in his name. Edwards
as stakeholder was then to demand
the right to inspect the mine and the
books Of the company In the mean
time papers had been drawn out for
applying in the District Court at
Belmont for receiver for the prop.
erty based on q refusal OF Edwards
request, and arrangements had also
been made to sell short 100, 900 shar-
es of stock and then telegraph the
news Of the legal proceedings to the
principal stock exchanges in the
country. But Edwards had confded
the plot to two prominent stock
holders, who informed the company,
and when he, as a stockholder, made
his request, it was courteously grant
ed by Secretary Dunlap, and the
whole scheme fell through. After,
however, the conspirators had real
lied this, their lawyer, supposing all
was well, served the papers on the
company's attorney.
Pittman now demands the return
Of the 800 shares of stock handed to
Edwards, who refuses to give it up.
Legal proceedings are talked OF to
recover these and through this it is
hoped that the names OF all these
contemplate conspirators will be
forthcoming. They are already free.
ly mentioned on the street and are
probably correct.
So sure were the conspirators of
the success Of this plot that they had
given the news to the Tonopah Sun,
which had set up a sheet in big type
TO tell the world that a receiver had
been applied for but at the last mo
ment this was broken up
1t is a matter of sincere congratu-
lation that this despicable scheme
was frustrated There are fully
1000 shareholders in the Montana
Tonopah company and the success OF
this plot would have probably forced
back the stock to ST. depreciating
the market value of the mine by 81,
900 900, creating panic which would
have extended through the whole
list of Tonopah stocks, caused invest.
ors to lose confidence in the camp,
and generally so affected the whole
district that it would have taken
months TO re-establish it on the solid
basis on which it now stands.

Tobacco.

The big prices realized for to-
bacco the past two or three weeks
will probably cause an immense
crop to be planted this year. There
are many who think that tobacco
will bring good prices for year or
two yet, no matter how much is
raised. If these predictions prove
true the condition of the farmers
and tobacco raisers will be greatly
improved and in that way the
country will reap the benefit.
When the farmer has money to
spend the merchant usually gets a
large share of it.

COIOred Bishop Suggested.

At the Methodist General Con-
ference in Los Angeles DIR. George
Elliott, of Detroit, presented a
memorial asking for the consid-
Grafton of the advisability of the
election of colored bishop. He
said be believed the church had
reached a crisis in its relations
with the colored race. Delegate
Charles P. McClelland. of New
York, opposed DR.. Elliott, saying
the race question had been brought
before the conference entirely too
much. The quadrennial addresses
of the bishops stated that the rela-
tions between the Northern and
Southern branches of the church
were growing more fraternal and
intimate.
