MAY DAY IS
NOT TRESPASSINC.
Acting Managerof Uncle Sam Con-,
Says a Survey Made Has Salts
fed Him Of This
BUT MINE WILL BE BENEFITED
Vein Was prOspectcd lor--How It
Was Missed and What Its Dis.
coyey Has Demonstrated.

Il was apparent from The actions Of
May Day when II was called up ON
tho Mining Exchange today that the
officials Of the Uncle Sam Consolidated,
who were granted permission TO make
n survey Of the May Day under
ground workings yesterday came away
satisfied that their territory was not
being trespassed. This was later con-
hrmed by Acting Manager James
Chapman I'VE were led Mr. Chapman
stated. TO believe that the May Day
company was working on q vein that
was partly within the sIdelInes Of the
Uncle Sam Consolidated. Naturally
this Interested as and desiring to as
certain definitely II such was the case
and get our bearings ON the course ot
he veln application was made to MI
Darmer the manager of the May Day
company for permission 20 take our
surveyor down into the mlnc. MI. Dar-
mer treated US cOurteOusly and prompt
IS granted the request Accordingly
the survey was made yesterday, but as
yet the surveyors notes have not been
made up, so / ana not prepared TO say
Just how close the May Days men are
10 our lines am satisfied, however
that they are not at work ln our ter
itOry
THE examination" continued Mr.
Chapman, has demonstrated clearly
to my mind the theory we had In the
beginning; that the May Day vein
runs on the east side Of what we call
the dyke. and II It Keeps its present
course and size IL viii undoubtedly
prove valuable thing for the Uncle
Sam
Mr. David Evans, while manager
OF the Uncle Sam, ran a crOs3-cut to-
wards the May Day line with n view
OF catching this vein, but without sue
cess
we also ran another cross-cut FUR
Their south TO the May Day line and did
cut vein OF low grade ore, upon
which some uprising was done, but
no sinking. The ore body In the May
Day Is located about $50 feet below
these drlfts-on the Crandall level,
which were run IN the Uncle Sam.
That no doubt win account for our
failure to encounter the pay ore.
Mr. Chapman was accompanied on his
trip to the mine by George Dern, man
ager of the Consolidated Mercur mine.
They returned from camp last evening,

DEPUTIES A!DEg LYNCHERs.
Savannah Militia Say They Were
in co!Iusion With the Mob who
Captured the Negroes.

Savannah, Ga, Aug. 17.-Tonight
all the Savannah troops returned from
Statesboro. Among those who had
been on gaard at the court house when
the assault was made were number
who bore bruises and marks of the
..ray. None of these, however, were
serious.
Capt. Robert NJ. Hitch, who com
manded the troops on guard and fol
the relief of which 200 men were sent
from here this afternoon, would make
no statement, stating that he would
report to the proper authorities. He
mas made out such report for the
adjutant general.
The soldiers. however, accuse the
deputy sheriffs of collusion with the
lynchers. In fact. they declare that
the deputies openly aided the lynchers
in overpowering the soldiers. It is
said that one powerful deputy seized
Capt. Hitch and hustled him down 8
stairway to the lawn outside, where
his sword and pistol were taken away
from him. When Capt. Hitch made
his way back upstairs the prisoners hae
been hustled away.
Many soldiers declare that the depu.
ties, who had been free to pass here
and there among them, seized them
Unexpectedly.
Reports from Statesboro deny this.
Those who assaulted the soldiers,
the reports declare, were not deputies.
