tinuation Of such events, he being the

the secretary of commerce and labor to
investigate the causes of the present
condition of the cattle market will be
acted upon. The committee on inter
state and foreign commerce have report
ed to the house in its favor. The reso.
luton directs the secretary to ascertain
the cause of the low price of cattle and
the high price of fresh beef. Also to
investigate the capitalization and meth.
DDS of any corporation in the combina-
ton and ascertain If these conditions
are caused by combination in restraint
of trade, and to report the results of his
investigation. There are a great many
people interested in this resolution as il
affects the farmer, the stock raiser an d
the consumers of beef all over the Unit
ed States. The report will be made in
accordance with the law and submitted
to the President who will be requested
to submit the findings to the house.
Should it be found that the law has been
violated the President will refer the
matter to the department of Justice.

Mining Items.

w. r. Millham, Supt. of the Interstate
Gold Mining company, has again return
ed to Custer and reports that work will
soon be resumed at the mines. He has
been looking for several days for the ar
rival of a party of stockholders in the
property. But by telegram received this
week he is informed that sickness in the
family of one of the main men has de-
layed their coming.
Through the medium of our northern
exchanges we learn that Messrs. r. w.
Way and G. A. Hutchinson, who own
the Miners Bar placer at Silver Cityi
and also the Kelly Bar at Kanyon City,
are preparing to work the same by erect
ing steam elevators and conveyors With
their appliances it Is said they will be
able to handle 500 cubic yards of gravel
in day. They are not only in quest of
free gold but they find there is value in
the black sand. They propose to test
the various processes for the extraction
of these values. We have long known
that our black sand, which is composed
largely of magnetic iron, carried good
values in gold and we see nothing i'm
practical or chimerical in this attempt to
extract these values. The onlK COM
ment we have to make is that should
they succeed in working these black
sands at profit (and we hope they will

That was pretty sh rewd Yankee trick
that the japanese sprung on the Rus
SLAMS few days ago. They procured
four old hulks and loaded them with
stone. These they propelled into the
mouth Of the harbor of Port Arthur,
with the intention of sinking them in
the narrow channel, and thus effectually
block the harbor. They came very near
being successful too, but not quite. The
Russians espied them when they were
yet afar of, and blazed away with their
big guns from the shore batteries and
sunk them before the Japs had gotten
them exactly where they wanted them.
The Japs however picked up their would

loss of a torpedo boat. But the Russians
claimed they had sunk four of the Jap

Mutual Telephone Lines.

Two mutual telephone lines have beer
run into Buffalo Gap in the last month
They are entirely farmers lines ever
down to the construction Of them. We
are assured that they give elegant salts
faction and the cost to each subscriber
was exceedingly little. 1t may be well
to state here that the cost per mile for
all material except poles did not exceed
seven dollars, and FIRST class telephone
can be installed for twelve. Each sub.
scriber put in an equal amount of labor
and poles.
A mutual line on the same plan is
talked Of to run from this metropolis
down by Four Mile 10 Pass creek, dis
tance of about 25 miles. We are told
so far there are not sufficient nnmber
of subscribers to warrant the construc-
ton of the line. Within a mile of the
proposed line there are over thirty farms
and enough should subscribe so that the
financial part of the burden should not
fall heavily on any.
The farmers and ranchmen would find
an easy and instant means of communi-
eating with each other and with the busi-
ness or professional men of the town OF
more value than they suppose, besides
materially increasing the value of their
homes. The business and professional
men of Custer would also find that it
meant money to them, and they should
by all means encourage and assist in the
good work.
We will hope to hear the cheerful
"hello" of the man now far from town in
the near future.

more strenuous effort to keep up with

last issue of February 25th contains
among many other good things detail :
ed description of the methods and prac-
tices of extracting the precious metal as
used in the new plant recently erected
by the Hidden Fortune Mining company.
The article was taken from the Denver
Mining Record and is very comprehen-

and takes the pains to describe 80 exact
