 MIR. HILL HERE-Engineer L. c. Hill arrived here yesterday afternoon from Roosevelt and will leave on this mornings train for a short trip to Los Angeles where he goes on business in connection with the manufacture of headgates for the big outflow tunnel of the Roosevelt dam. Asked about the Roosevelt road, he said it was in bad condition compared with what it is in a state of perfection but has not been materially injured or at least to no such extent as people imagine from the reports that are circulated about it. He says there has been no time when a wagon could not go within a mile or so of the dam except when the section of road up the canyon of Salt river was under water. On that part of it the loose surface was of course swept away but the main part of the road is solid rock and imperViouS to floods eX- cept for minor injuries here and there. There are few places along the road that are quite muddy as it has only been three days since it stopped rain ing in that country. Freighting over the road began Tuesday. that is some freight left from this end that day, and it will take a few days or possibly weeks to fix up all the bad places and make it as nice as it was before. Com ing down this time he started on horse back because that was the only way to get around the dam site, but from Fish creek into Mesa he drove the same team all the way, covering the distance at the rate of a little more than six miles an hour, which is not a bad record for a long drive. The greatest difficulty now is to get hauled to Roosevelt the oil that is needed for the cement mill and other things and that is now in Globe waiting for the Globe road to become passable.

Worlds Coal Production.

The worlds coal production in 1908
reached the enormous total of S64 ,00O,-
600 long tons, of which the United
States supplied more than any other
country. Statistics received by the
Department of Commerce and Labor,
through its bureau of statistics, indi-
cate that .-.e worlds output of coal
in 1903 was 100000 tons. of which
the United States produced 5000, 900
tons. as against 230,000,0O0 produced
by Great Britain, 160,000,O00 by Ger
many, 39,000,000 by Austria-Hungary
and 35.000,000 by France.
The United States, the United King
dom and Germany supplied four-fifths
of the worlds coal product, the share
contributed by these countries being:
United States, thirty-seven per cent;
United Kingdom, twenty-seven per
cent, and Germany. eighteen and one
half per cent. These countries also
lead in the production of domestic
manufactures and in like rank in the
expectation of domestic products. For
1903 exports of domestic products from
the countries named were: Germany
1.20 billions of dollars; United King
dom, LAP billions, and the United
States, 1.44 billions.

Shisaler's Victims,

Denver. March 13.-At a latc hour
last night 1t was reported at the Emer-
gency hospital that Captain OF Police
Bohanna and Police Surgeon Dulin
were improving. DR.. Dulin was struck
by three bullets from the rife OF Shiss-
Ter and the bone of his right leg was
shattered below the knee. Another
passed through the calf OF his right
leg. The third bullet ploughed through
the fieshy part OF his hip. The bullet
which splintered the bone of the right
leg probably will cause DR.. Dulin to
be a cripple for life, as 1t is now
thought that amputation will be neces-
sary. The injuries Of Captain Bohanna
are painful but not serious.
At the hospital last night It was
stated that there was little doubt but
that both the injured men would re.

Activity at Telluride.

The Denver News correspondent at
Telluride says: The prospects are
very bright for the approaching spring.
summer and fall being the most active
and prosperous in the history of Tel
luride and San Miguel county. Mine
owners and managers are planning to
work their properties more extensively
than ever before, and business men
are predicting better times for the re-
mainder of the year than have been
experienced since 1901. According to
reports a greater number of men will
be employed in the district than ever
before, and if this proves true it will
mean the expenditure by the mining
companies of approximately $15O,000 a
month for labor and supplies.
1t is said that the Liberty Bell Gold
Mining Company. whose mines have
been closed down with the exception
of development since December 1st
last, pending the making of repairs
and improvements in the mill, will be
employing 400 men by April 1st or
April 18th. This company is now en-
ploying about 100 men in the mines
and on the improvements in the mill

SEVERELY PUNISHED.
Two Denver Election Thieves Get Pen
itentiary Sentences.

Denver, March 12.-In the District
Court yesterday Judge Booth NJ. Ma
lone sentenced Michael Dowd and Pc
ter Miller, each of them, to from three
to five years in the penitentiary for
crimes against the ballot. These men
were convicted of election crimes in
Ward Z. Precinct 2, at the polling place
at 1880 Josephine street. Theirs was
the celebrated case where the light
was put out and 31S fraudulent ballots
substituted.
The two men who appeared before
the Supreme Court in the first con-
tempt case arrogant and smiling, were
yesterday hailed before Judge Malone,
pale and trembling. Their bravado had
been broken by confinement in the
crowded Jail and knowledge of what
was to follow.
Judge Malone addressed the men for
twenty minutes. Among other things
he said: you may have thought that
you were not only safe and secure, but
that you would also be rewarded. You
may have even been promised both
rewards and security. You may have
thought that what you did was not
bad, but smart. But / assure you that
1t was not smart and that it was bad
very bad indeed.
You were not content to simply
stuff the ballot box, but you stole and
destroyed all of the 31S ballots cast
in your precinct. Your conduct was
bold, braZen and raw. II you had
stolen 1918 Of money or other common
chattels, you would be felon and H.
able to punishment in the Penitentiary
for long series of years.
When you stole those 31S ballots,
! t-rrr nv,nff nd in, Nfv,to 60
worse crime than the stealing of $318
| would or could be.
"When you stole those 31S ballots,
you deprived 31S American citizens of
the most sacred right given them un-
der the law, and you endangered the
liberty OF every man, woman anf child
In this community.
Young men, there is no politics in
this thing. A man who steals ballots
Is not Republican or Democrat. He
IS a criminal and thief and bad and
dangerous one. This is not politics.
No party which practices or knowingly
profits by election frauds can long sue
ceed or long endure.
The man who puts up such a job
and furnishes the money therefor, is
as bad or worse than the man who
takes the money and does the job. 1t
Is time that election tb.every and elec-
tion frauds were stopped in this COM
munity. Violators of election laws
will find that there are some courts
which are not in sympathy with crimes
against the elective franchise or with
those guilty Of Them"
The sentence in each case is as fol-
lows: THAT you be confined in the
State Penitentiary of the state of Col
c.ado. at hard labor. for period Of
not less than three nor more than five
years. 1t is further ordered, adjudged
and decreed, that you pay one-half Of
all the costs expended or incurred by
the people In this prosecution, to be
taxed. ard that execution issue there

Ell Paso's Good Showing.

At the annual stockholders meet
ing of the FL Paso Consolidated Gold
Mining Company at Colorado Springs,
March 18th, there were represented
2,163,000 shares, out of total of 2,450,-
900 shares of stock outstanding. There
are $4,000 shares in the treasury, max
ing total OF 100000 shares.
The meeting was entirely harrao-
NOUS and all of the officers and direc-
tors were reelected as follows:
President and general manager, S.
s. Bernard; vice president, George
Bernard; secretary and treasurer, j.
M. Jordan. William S. Jackson, ]. w.
Mahony and Phil S. Delany of Colo
RADIO Springs and ]. C. Helm of Denver
complete the directorate.
Daniel Thatcher was. reelected as
sistant secretary and treasurer.
Reports of officers, which show the
company to be remarkably prosperous,
give clear idea of the production rec
ord, profit earning capacity and great
ness of the Ell Paso property. Presi-
dent Bernard, referring to the net
profit of $76S,S02.3S, or 56.7 per cent,
says in his annual report that "it is
entirely new to the mining business
of Cripple Creek, and in all probable
ity will not be surpassed in years to
come by any but the Ell Paso."
The following comparative state
ment of production speaks for itself:
Year ending Feb. IL, 1901. $117,900.53
Year ending Feb. 10. 1902. 3O7,443.44
Year ending Feb. 9, 1903.. 47O,755.75
Year ending Feb. s, 1904. 5S3,449.55
Year ending Jan. 81, 1905. 1855, ,935.11
President Bernard devotes a para
graph in his report to the proposed
new drainage tunnel, which will tap
the workings Of the Ell Paso at depth
of 1,400 feet. The Ell Paso company
will contribuate at least $4,000 to the
project. 1t will cost about 100000 to
construct the tunnel.

CHASING kUROPATKIN
JAPANESE PUSH THE PURSUIT
Most OF. Russian Army Thought to Be
Saved-But Retreat May Con-
tinue to harbin.

March 13.-While General Kuropat-
kin has apparently succeeded in saw
ing more of his artillery than seemed
possible, his losses in men, ammuni-
ton and commissariat supplies in the
battle of Mukden are far greater than
earlier reports indicated, and eten that
portion of his army which he succeeded
in extricating from the positions
around Mukden is still in serious
danger.
The Japanese generals, realizing that
with a little more speed they could
have inflicted crushing defeat on the
Russian army after the battle of Lao
Yang determined not to allow such an
opportunity to pass again, are follow
ing after the defeated and sorely tried
Russian forces.
While a small portion Of Kuropat-
kin's army has reached Tie pass, the
greater part of those who escaped from
the battle Of Mukden are still strug-
Cling onward, being at last accounts
between twelve and sixteen miles from
their goal, with the Japanese, flushed
with victory and reinforced by fresh
men, harassing them from all sides.
Even should the remnant of the
army reach Tie pass, it is hardly pos
sible for it to make a stand against the
overwhelming force opposing it, and
especially as the Russians must be
worn out and weakened by the loss of
men, guns and ammunition.
1t is more likely that Kuropatkin will
fall back to Harbin with what he can
save and wait there for the reinforce
ments that st. Petersburg has already
promised him. A possible obstacle to
the plan is General Kawamura's army,
which has not yet been located, and
which may also be heading for the
northern capital.

1t is stated that the California mine
in Gilpin county. which has been idle
for four years, is to be again unwa-
tered and active mining operations re-
sumed.
Shipments of iron ore from Guern-
sey. Wyoming. to the smelter at Pu-
eblo have aggregated 11S,000 tons dur
ing the last three months. OF this ton
mage the Burlington hauled $4,000 tons
and the Colorado & Southern $4,000
tons.
Shipments of smelling and crude
ores. tailings and concentrates from
the Black Hawk depot for the week
ending March 11th totaled almost 1000
tons, this being one of the heaviest
shipping weeks for some time. AS the
smelling ores are carrying improved
values, the production of the county is
safely on the increase.
