Austin-GoldiieId.

A big strike was made on Friday
on the Magee lease of the Austin
Goldfield Mining company near Aus
tin. While running tunnel 1900 feet
from the main shaft the men tapped
the ledge, which gives phenomenal
values. This mine is one of the best
properties in Nevada and will be q

defined, but are rich in values. The
development work done thus far con.
sists of a tunnel $50 feet in length
on the ledge, and a shaft 250 feet in
depth. The bottom Of the shaft is
all in ore averaging $400 to the ton

RUSSIAN PEOPLE ADVISED TO RE.
FUSE TO PAY TAXES OF ANY
DESCRIPTION.
ANTI.GoVERAMENT MANIFESTO ISSUED
REVOLUTIONARlES DEFY Off
GALS IN BITTERLY WORDED
DOCUMENT.

st. Petersburg, Dec. Is, via Eydt-
kuhnen, East Prussia, Dec. 18.-The
proletariat organizations, through the
invisible government" threw bomb
shell into the camp of the official gov
ernment during the night by issuing
a manifesto, following the form of a
regular imperial document, declaring
the bankruptcy of the treasury, order
ing the proletariat army everywhere
to refuse to pay taxes of any descrip-
ton, to insist on the payment of wages
in gold or silver and to withdraw all
their deposits from the savings banks
in gold.
The manifesto is a terrible indict-
ment of the manner in which the bu-
reaucracy has brought the country to
financial ruin, asserting that the gov
ernment has squandered not only the
cOuntry's income but the proceeds of
the foreign loans on railroads, the
army and the fleet, leaving the people
without schools or roads, yet, 1t is de-
clared, there is no money to feed the
soldiers and everywhere there are in
surrections Of the beggared and
starved troops and sailors.
The manifesto even charges the gov
ernment with using the deposits in
the government savings banks to spec
ulate on the bourse and with cover
ing up its chronic deficits in the
Interest on the Immense Debt
by the proceeds of the foreign loans,
which are at last exhausted. The rich,
it is further declared, have already
taken warning and are converting
their property into securities and gold
and are sending them abroad. The
only salvation for the country, accord
ing to the manifesto, is the overthrow
OF the autocracy by constituent as
sembly and the sooner the govern
ment falls the better Therefore the
last source of the existence of the old
regme-its financial revenue-must
be stopped
The document is signed by the men,
bers of the Worlmen's council, the
committee of the Pan-Russian union
and the central committees of the So
cial Democrats, Social Revolutionists
and Socialists of Poland.
This great step of the revolution
aries, which throws down the gauge
of battle to the government, was pre-
pared with such secrecy that the au-
thorities were taken off their guard
and did not even attempt to prevent
its publication in the newspapers. The
revolutionary leaders expect it will be
followed by reprisals and arrests, but
all this has been foreseen. The lead
ers laid their plans deeply before is-
suing the manifesto. New committees
OF the various organizations have been
elected in the third and fourth degree.
If one set of committees is put behind
the bars another will take its place
and carry on the work.
