Mining Note S.

Albert Burch of Spokane is examin

Idaho with a view of taking a bone
on a controlling interest of the prop
erty.
Interest has been revived in Mount
Rastus, the new mining district of Ore
gon, discovered late last fall in the
extreme southwest corner of Baker
county.
}. Stabenow, miner at the Stand
ard, at Mace, Idaho, was severely in
Jured about the leg in the mine re.
Gently by being struck by a falling
timber.
The Sixteen to One mine in the
Occur d'Alenes, the controlling inter
est in which is owned by Finch &
Campbell of Spokane, is to be incor-
porated.
The men who have the five years
lease on the Snow Storm copper mine
in the Occur d'Alenes, are preparing
to put in teaching plant with a ca
pacity of 200 tons a day.

Tiger-Poorman mine at Burke. Idaho,
fell % feet down a timber chute in
the mine recently and was so seriously
injured that he can not recover.
News of the strike In the Colonel
mine, in Buffalo Hump, which occur
red early last week, says the strike
comprises nine feet of as rich ore as

A long cables a.. -r-1.4 -oasul zen
eral Gummere was received by Secre-
tary Hay The consul states, in sub
stance, that the bandit who kidnapped
Perdicaris and Marley, had been heard
from and made set of demands which
the British minister and Mr.. Gum
mere had deemed it their duty to lay
before their government. Razouili, the
kidnaper, demanded that the Moorish
forces should be withdrawn from the
district in which his band operated,
leaving them in control. He asked a
large money ransom to be collected
from the governor of Tangier and Fee,
who happen to be bitter enemies.
He further demanded absolute i'm
munity for himself and his followers
from pursuit or punishment for the
kidnapping and other crimes they had
committed in the past. To cap the
climax of his demands, Razouii in
sisted that the United States and Eng
land should solemnly guarantee the
observance by the Moorish govern
ment of the foregoing stipulations.
Secretary Hay had a conference with
the president, and it was agreed that
Razouilis terms could not be met. To
grant them would be equivalent to
forcing the sutton of Morocco to abdi-
cate in favor of a brigand so far as
a considerable part of a Moorish ter
ritory was concerned. Moreover, the
United Ftates could not, without es-
tablishing new and dangerous prece-
dent, undertake to guarantee the acts
of another government. The next step
is in doubt
Admiral Chadwick will be at Tangier
soon on the Brooklyn, to be followed
in the course of a day or two by the
remainder of his feet. AS the utmost
is reposed in the discretion
and judgment of the admiral, une pres.
ent disposition is to leave him a free
hand to deal with this case in coop
GRAFTON with Consul Gummere.
1t is reported that the French gov
which, under it's recent trea-
ties with Great Britain, has acquired a |
interest in Morocco, may
naturally be rather nervous over any |
foreign influence in the affairs of that
country, and this fact, it is suggested. |
may lead to the exercise by the French |
government of some effective influence
in the direction of securing Perdicaris
release, which will obyiate any hostile
move by Admiral Chadwick.
