Expects Attack on VIadivostok.

Washington, Sept. 1.-The navy de-
partment has received a cablegram
from Lieutenant H. A. McCully, dated
at Mukden, saying that he is leaving
there Immediately for Vladivostok.
Lieutenant McCully has been at Port
Arthur almost constantly since the
outbreak Of the war. That he is going
to Vladivostok leads to the supposition
here that he expected the Japanese to
turn their attention to that port in
the event of the fall of Port Arthur.

CAMPBELL ELECTRICAL
 METH0DAT CROWNED KING

The Crowned King company, Of Yavapai county, has enlarged the old mill plant and is placing therein the machinery to operate the Campbell electrical method of concentration.
 When the ore leaves the amalgamat- ing plates 1t is washed over ordinary concentrating tables, being fl rst graded in size, the coarse going to the Wiley table and the medium to th3 Frue Vanner. The shines pass first to the slime tanks, where they are unwatered and then are conveyed to the small pauners. ca all the tables the results are the same the lead aud the iron zinc concentrates. each freighted with gold and silver values, are separated ard retained, the gangue, or worthless stuff, washing away. Then the iron- zinc concentrates are conveyed to a roaster and put through a cooking process which electrifies the iron but does not affec the zinc, aud they are now ready for the Campbell machine.
 To each machine the magnetized iron.zinc concentrates are fed through a hopper and the result is instantane- ous. The magnetic bslts whisk the iron along little brushes which scrape it oil into a special conveyor, while the zinc concentrates tum ole into a special chute and thus becomes val uable asset instead of loss and ex pense. The chute empt ies this pro duct onto a long belt conveyor, which carries it to a bin, where it is event. ually discharged into railway cars foI shipment to smelters.

IMPORTANT STRIKE AT TROY
Wulfenite dic0vered tn Quantity.
 Machinery to Handle 1t Ordered

The Florence Blade reports that a large body of wulfenits has been en- countere1 in the 9l claim of the Troy Manhattan Mining company.
 Wultenite is molybdate of lead which yields molybi lie acid and some times cianadic acid. When pure, wul- fen tie contains 90 per cent molybdic acid and 60. per cent lead Tungstic acid and moly bdic acid are now used as Gardening agents in the manu- fracture of steel. The value of the molybdic acid for this purpose is a recent discovery aud it has proved to be the better hardening agent of the two acids and is rapidly displacing The tungstic acid iu the steel fac tories.
 In Arizona wulfenite is generally strongly impregnated with gold and there are exceedingly few paying gold veins in the territory that do not carry more or less wulfenite.
 The Blade states further thst the New York managers Of the Troy Man. haitian Copper company have obtain ed a steady market for their product aud have ordered a complete concen- trating plant for the treatment of their ore which is of the best grade and should yield handsome profit.
 The 9l mine is operated through the Davis shaft, and General Manager Chas. H. Cutting is now installing a steam hoisting plant at the Davis shaft preparatory to mining this wul. fenite ore on commercial scale.
 The concentrating machinery will be shipped in on the Phoenix & East ern, and as the track of the latter has reached Kelvin, distant from Troy about six miles, 1t will not take long to deliver the machinery at the mines The manufacturers are at work on the machinery nnder rush orders.

Through the kind Virgin ians, civilian clothing was bought for their interesting captive, and by mid November Paul was safely under the roof of a well-to-do and most active southern sympathizer in Baltimore. ] These were details which Ladue could not reveal at the time. He had revived sufficiently to recognize Benton and to speak feebly a few moments;
 but that very night, in the fog and darkness, was begun the building of the bridges, the crossing of the left grand division, and Fred could only leave his poor friend with the sur geons and hasten back to his duty. Four days later, when he would have ridden to the hospital camp in search of him, it was too late. Urgent orders had come from Stanton himself. the great and growing war secretary; to send the prisoner patient thither as soon as he could be moved. Jennings had already gone under strong guard, and all Benton could learn at the mo- ment was that there had been break from prison camp; that, aided by resi-. dents of Baltimore and of Charles county, some confederate officers had escaped to the Potomac; and, while some of the party had succeeded in crossing. one boat had been, fired on

Fred's new general had come in for rasping from the corps commander, because the lead- ing brigade took the wrong road in the rain and darkness, and so delayed matters over an hour. 1t happened that Benton had guided the division to it's first position on the field; that he had been sent to find Gen. Frank lin; that when he returned with a message from the latter af1cer, the division was in motion, and the com- Gibbon or somebody else, and Benton followed, of course, in search of his chief, instead of staying with the head of column. Finding himself rebuked, the general reprimanded Benton in the presence and hearing of officers and men. Benton's heart and temper being both sore and tried. he had replied with much spirit. if not subordination, to the effect that the message he was CudIECu IO uCllfOI 1OUnALtCu OL UO OC~ lay; that if the general had been where he belonged there would have been no delay; and that sooner than submit to such injustice he would ask to be relieved from staff duty forthwith, and wrote that very night to his old friend and general, then member of an im- portant military tribunal at Washing ton, begging his advice and interven- tion, and telling him, of course, the story of poor Ladue.
