small force is engaged on the tunnel
to be 800 feet long. This will cross
cut the ledge at a greater depth than
the other tunnels. The management
of this company is following a wise
and conservative course in thoroughly
determining the size and values of the
ledge before putting in reduction
plant. -
Most of the properties have closed
down for the winter. Without a
wagon road, it is both difficult and
expensive to lay in supplies enough
to work full force continuously.
The development of this district,
which gives great promise, has gone
about as far as it can without wagon
road. road is absolutely necessary
to transport the machinery that will
be needed to handle the immense
bodies of ore already developed and
waiting to give up their wealth.

An 0utburst For StoesseI.

st. Petersburg, Jan. Few in
cidents of the whole war have
aroused more bitter criticism than
the blunt announcement, officially
issued by the general staff, that
General Stoessl will have to come
home and stand court marshal for
surrendering the fortress OF Port
Arthur. While this Is an ancient
regulation and quite according to
law. it is bitterly resented on all
sides that such an announcement
should have been gratuitously made
in the came bulletin containing Gen.
Stoessel's appeal to the emperor for
clement judgement on q garrison re
duced to shadows, who have done
all that was possible for human be-
ings to uphold the honor OF Russia
in the face of her enemies" The
Novoe Vremya, despite the example
made by the suspension Of the Russ,
says:
"By all means, let US have a court
marshal and make 1t, If possible,
severe. The cruel Judge will, perhaps,
deal leniently with the those who
have given their blood and lives for
their country. Perhaps, also, the
court will determine why a fortress
known to be threatened with block.
ade is not supplied with necessary
food and munitions to enable it to
hold out. Perhaps such a court will
bring to light many dark, hidden
things and expose the creeping,
underground enemies OF Russia who
are infinitely more dangerously to
the nation than the foe who fights In
the open.
