DRAINAGE TUNNEL.
Plan for Financing Great Cripple
Creek Project.

Colorado Springs, Colo.-The plan
suggested by the finance committee of
the Cripple Creek Mine Owners AS
sociation to finance the projected deep
drainage tunnel was unanimously
adopted at meeting attended by
more than score of representative
operators in this city this afternoon
Every mining company in Cripple
Creek will be asked to contract to pay
two per cent. of it's net mill and smell
ter returns into the tunnel fund. This
assessment will be levied upon all ore
mined through the tunnel, but will
apply only upon production of compa-
MES after July l, 1907.
The contract provides that the sum
of 100000 shall be raised by July /,
1906, work on the tunnel to begin
within sixty days after that amount
shall have been secured. Since July /,
1907, is the time limit within which
the 100000 shall be raised, the tun-
mel will be started by September /,
1907, at the latest and as much sooner
as the amount named shall be raised.
A company to be known as the Grip
pie Creek Drainage and Tunnel Com
pany will be Incorporated in this state
with capitalization of 100000, di-
vided into 100000 shares of par
value Of $40 each This stock will be
offered to mine owners first, and what
ever shares are left will be placed on
the open market.
A committee Of five will be ap-
pointed to submit the contracts to
mine owners and operators at once
and to offer stock for subscription. The
tunnel plan adopted is that known as
the Window Rock" tunnel, which
will have its portal in Window Rock
gulch, in the Cripple Creek district.
The Portland Gold Mining Company,
the Golden Cycle company, and other
East Side mining companies which at
first expressed reluctance to join the
deep drainage proposition are now
friendly to the plan.

OHIO DEMOCRATIC.
Elect Governor and Majority of Both
Houses.

Columbus, O.-That John M. Patti
son has been elected governor for tho
next three years by a plurality run
ming well above 10000 is settled, as
also Ia the Democratic working ma
jority in both houses of the Legisla-
ture, but there is still some uncer-
Hainty as to the remainder of the state
ticket.
The earlier returns were apparently
from sections favorable to Governor
Herrick, for he held a lead over the
rest of his ticket until to-day, when
fuller returns from the country dis
tricts cut into the vote severely, and
by the middle of the afternoon he
seemed to be over 10000 votes behind
his ticket. If that difference stands.
the victory of these other officers will
depend on the size Of Pattison's plu-
rality, with the chances in favor of the
choice of the entire Democratic list.
Chairman CARRIER tonight figured
pluralities for Pattison that aggre.
gated close to $4,000, in which even.
the entire Democratic ticket was SAFE
The Republicans have given out no
later estimates since that concerning
the election of Pattison by 10000 plu.
rality, but later reports received at
headquarters indicate that larger
figure is correct.
The state officers and legislators
chosen yesterday will serve three
years instead of two as heretofore,
the constitutional amendment for bi-
ennial elections providing that the
terms of officials elected at this time
shall expire January l, 1909, at which
time the state officers and legislators
chosen in November, 1908, will as
sumo office. The Legislature chosen in
1908 will choose United States sena,
tor in succession to Senator Foraker.
For some time there was confusion on
this point, and it was widely but in
correctly asserted that the Legislature
just chosen would name Foraker's
successor.
Republican estimates tonight give
the Democrats two to five majority In
the next Senate and from ten to fifteen
in the House and these are probably
the minimum estimates. The Demo
cratic claim Is majority of five in
the Senate and twenty-seven In the
House.

Denver.-In the 100000 damage

Court by Charles Meyer, president Of
the Western Federation of Miners, for
alleged unlawful Imprisonment and
violence during the mining troublec
two years ago, Judge Riner ruled yes
terday that the defendants had no.
taken the proper mode OF fighting the
suit in filing motion for dismissal.
This, he held, could not be granted,
but a demurrer should have been fled
as counter action to the suit. Judge
Riner Is temporarily taking the place
OF Judge Hallett in the federal court,
while the latter is away. Ten days
was given tho defendants to file their
answer

former brother scout of Col. w. F.
Cody (Buffalo Bid, is dying in his
apartments in the Irma hotel here.
white Beaver" has been i'll for sew
eral weeks, and few days ago there
was sudden change for the worse.
DIR. Powell is almost as celebrated as
Buffalo Bill. Together they secuted
and fought Indians, and in later years
were in the show business together.
DIR. Powell was the crack pistol shot
Of the world. During the last few
years Colonel Powell has been in
charge of Colonel Cody's vast ranch
interests in this section.
DIR. Powell was loved by the Indians,
who called him the white medicine
man. He performed many remarkable
cures among the Indians. and his sur
gical operations among them were a
marvel to the red men.
Oscar F. Swensen is now in charge
of Colonel Cody's business interests
here. Colonel Cody is hurrying home
from France, where he has had sue
cessful two years run with his Wild
West show, and he is expected to ar
rive here about December 1st. He
may be too late. however, to see his
old partner alive.

confesses to Robbery.

Denver.-A Republican special from
Hot Sulphur Springs says. Larry
Martin, who. while drunk Saturday
claimed to be one of the bank robbers
who robbed the bank at Cody. Wyo-
ming, and the one who fred the shot
that killed Cashier Middaugh, was ar
rested by Deputy Sheriff Lyons to-day
He told Deputy Sheriff Lyons that he
was the man who killed Middaugh,
and implicated another man who Is
working below Kremmling.
Martin claims the two came from
Wyoming together. He says there
were five connected with the robbery.
Deputy United States Marshal Joe La
fois is here to take the prisoners back
to Wyoming, II Lyons succeeds in cap
turing the other man.. There is some
doubt as to the truthfulness of Mar
tins claim

Progress Of eunni.on Tunnel.

Washington.-Since the failure OF
the original contractors on the Gunni
son tunnel to comply with the require
ments of the government and the re-
lection of the second bids for the
work, the excavation has been in

service. Advices from Supervising En-
gineer j. H. Quinton at Montrose indi-
cate that rapid progress is being made.
November lst the tunnel heading from
the Gunnison river was In 1000 feet
and the Cedar creek heading 2,700 feet,
making total Of 400 feet.
The Gunnison tunnel. which is to be
completed in 1898, will be 10000 feet
In length, the longest tunnel in the
United State. 1t will be 1O1x11h feet,
and will carry a large volume of water
from the Gunnison river through the
mountali. divide, 1000 feet in height,
into the Uncompahgre valley. where 1t
will be utilized for the irrigation Of
ABOUT $4,000 acres of exceedingly fer
tile land.

surrender. General Trepoff has been
removed from the powerful position
which he occupied. that of governor

poff should become commandant Of the
palace. succeeding the late Lieutenant
