CITY HALL MAY COLLAPSE.
Lewiston Building Can Only BE Tenn
pOrarily Repaired.

Lewiston, Idaho, June 1.-The
Lewiston city hall is In imminent dam
ger OF collapse and the official no.
tice of condemnation was placed on
the structure by Building Inspector
Wrighter this morning.
Great cracks extending from the
foundation to the caves have appeared
I'm the west wall of the building dur
ing the past two days and the north
wall now hangs over the Globe lodg-
ing house. and IL II falls will carry
with It largo sections of the east and
west ends.
The east wall is cracked in numer-
Gus places and the north foundation
is slowly settling into the ground
The foundation is poorly constructed
the mortar between the stones being
chiefly sand and with no holding
properties.
Make Repairs at Once.
A plan has been perfected for
temporary repair of the building anc
workmen will commence at once
Large SKIS inch timber will be placed
in perpendicular position at the
ends and the center of the north ant
south walls and will be bound to
gether with heavy steel rods. TIT
walls can be drawn into place b!
screws and 1t is believed the build
ing can be made safe for temporar'
use until other arrangements ar
made.
Change Polling Place.

condition for several years, but onl
within the last few days has the cor
dition become dangerous.

Lewiston Needs a New PUMP.

The city authorities have come to
the conclusion that a new pump will
be needed within the year and have
authorized Superintendent Smith to
make an investigation of the styles
and get prices to submit to the coun-
ell at some subsequent date. The
pump is needed at an auxiliary plant
to the present one. The capacity
needed is from 100000 to 1900, 600
gallons daily and such n pump and
motor would cost the city about $4,000.

that there are 5000 persons in the new
Manhattan district. There is a great deal
of snow on the ground and the weather Is
cold but these facts have not in the least
dampened the ardor of the fortune-seek-
ers who are rolling IN from all directions
and in any kind of shade, so long as
they get there. It IS not unusual TO see
a stage start out with fifteen passengers
or more on vehicle that would give scant
accommodation to eight but everything
gees. The camp Is yet without adequate
accommodation and he says 1t is certain
that there viii be no small amount Of suf-
feying until the weather moderates.
The Manhattan-Dexter property in the
rev camp is the one that has caused all
the excitement. 1t Is owned by George
Wingfield, T. L. Oddie and others and
the ore from portions Of it is so sensation
ally rich in free gold that 1t Is impossible
to see it and not get the fever. Vermylla,
Edwards & Stanley, the Goldfield law
firm, have also secured some background
In the new camp and every day reports
and TonOpah- Mr.. Peery has sent men
into the camp, but he decided not to go
in himself until spring.
Business on the Goldfield mining ex-
change is booming, he says. The scenes
Of four years ago on the Salt Lake ex-
change, he says, would seem tame IN
comparison with the manner in which
some Of the big guns make the fur lily
during the calls on the Goldfield board.
George Wingfield sets the pace and swift
as 1t is there is always some one jumping

T. r. Jones, Fred Lyon and Andrew
Mayberry were at Goldfield when Mr..
Peery left and they are expressing them
selves as being almost dumbfounded at
the wonderful showing which some ofthe
big mines of the district possess. Y Is
now understood at camp that the United
States company has contracted for the
output Of all the mines in which the
SchWab- McKane and allied interests con-
trol. both at Tonopah and GOldfield, and
to that extent. at least. 1t is cutting into
the business that previously went TO the
American company.
High-grade cOpper-gold ore is now
being mined from the Florence property
and the report is that much of this ore
carries twelve ounces gold and % per
cent copper. Conditions in this mine has
led the experts to believe that underlying
all the gold ores of the district will be
found great deposits OF copper. No one
longer talks Of GOldfield as a surface de-
post camp. 1t is now positively demon
strated that the lodges carry rich values
to the deep and that copper is sure to
help make the rock all the more valu-
able

-FOUR MINES IN
BIG new COMBINE
Samuel Newhouse Returns and GetG
Busy-Has Nothing Yet to Say
for Publication.
BINGHAM CON. MAY BE IN IT
LOWER MAMMOTH PLANNING TO
SINK DEEPER.

Samuel Newhouse. president OF the
Boston Consolidated and Newhouse
Mines & Shelters companies, reached
his Offices again yesterday morning
after an absence since just before
Christmas In response to inquiries he
pleaded that there was nothing at all
which he could say for publication con-
corning the big mergers upon which he
is working at this time, as details are
still unsettled.
During a greater portion Of the day
Mr.. NeWhouse was in close consultation
with A. Chester Beatty, chief engineer
on the staff of John Hays Hammond,
consulting engineer for the Guggen-
helms, a fact that indicates. if it indi-
Gates anything, that the reported con-
sOlidation or merger of the Boston Con-
so1idated, Utah Copper, Cactus, and,
according to reports from Boston. the
bingham company, will soon eliminate
in the closing Of the deal, whatever it
is. Engineer Beatty's experts are now
engaged in making an examination OF
the Boston Consolidated properties
and, 1t is understood, that the work is
TO include q thorough sampling of all
the ore bodies and the mountain Of
cOpper-bearing pOrphyries, as we'll, just
as was done in the case Of the Utah
Copper properties previous to the pass
or American Smelling interests. In
Boston it is now considered certain
that the four propositions mentioned
will, at the conclusion Of negotiations,
all be counted in the same family,
though under what terms appears to be
not better understood there than here,
as the chief parties in interest are re
hgiously keeping their own counsel
For q time the impression prevailed in
Boston and New York that several
other properties were headed in the
same direction as those mentioned, but
that idea, according to report, has final
" been discarded altogether. Other
combinations are now being talked Of
and. when the one mentioned has been
finally and definitely arranged, it is ex-
peCted that other important movements
will be under way.
In the meantime work IS being
crowded at the new works Of the Amer
lean Smelling & Refining company, at
the big mill Of the Utah Copper com
rany, and the test plant of the Bos on
Consolidated has commenced its run
to demonstrate the best methods of
handling the pOrphyry ores in that
property. The Rio Grande Western
Railroad cOmpany's mana cement is
also doing everything possible to get
work on the lines that are to connect
the Bingham mines and the new plants
at Garfield under way and there is
not a shadow Of doubt that the next
few weeks will see more dirt flying
along the mountain range on the west
side Of this valley than was ever
dreamed Of few short wears ago.
Every company concerned in the
mammoth enterprises here mentioned
is abundantly able TO carry through
every project Independently and, if II
should finally happen that no merger
was effected, there would not be a mo-
ment's DELAY or cessation of operations
on that account.

WANT sHEBA MINES.
Creditors of Company Seek to Fore
close on Deep Creek Property.

Two suits, asking a total Judgment of
S26, 2OO.6S with interest and a foreclosure
sale Of the property Of the Sheba Min
ing company. were filed in the district
court yesterday.
L. G. Lawton is plaintiff in one of
the cases and demands judgment for
$19 20O.6S on four notes. One Of them,
for $13, 76S. 50, is alleged to have been Civ
en- him at Chicago. May A. 1904, by the
company. The other three. two of them
for s., 600 each and the other for $500,
are alleged to have been given TO Eleck
F. Hall in 1903 and 1905 and assigned to
LawtOn.
Hall is the plaintiff in the other suit.
He alleges that the company owes him
$1,000 on a note dated Oct. so, 1902, at
Buffalo, II. Y, and secured by mort
gage on the cOmIpany's property. Owen
Sheridan is made a defendant in this
suit with the statement that he has,
or claims TO have, some interest or
claim upon said mortgaged premises, or
some part thereof, as purchaser, mort
gagee, judgment creditor or otherwise"
The properties involved in this action
are those of the Sheba, at Ibapah, in
the Deep Creek region. and in which the
ROoklidges of this city and Chicago were
at one time largely interested. The mines
are considered good and a large amount
of gold-silver bullion has been shipped
from them in the past

The wheat market was firm for the

ton was up Il to q to 3sQ12 at $3.50 GSS7s.
From Argentina came reports of contin-
ued rains which Is said would greatly
delay the movement of the new crop.
News from India was TO the effect that
the wheat crop had suffered damage by
drought, which was still unbroken. A
minor Influence was the small shipments
from Russia, the movement for the week
being 744,009 bushels against 100000 bush
els one week ago. There was consider

LOWER MAMMOTH PLANS.
Directors Organize and Discuss
Sending Main Shaft Deeper.

The directors Of the Lower Mammoth
Mining company elected at the recent
annual meeting have organized by
making Simon Bamberger. president;
John Dern, vice pres. dent and man
ager; w. S. Mccormick. treasurer. and
A. Reeves, secretary. An executive
committee, that viii have charge Of the
mine during the absence Of Manager
Dern in Europe, consisting of H. c.
Mcmillan and A. Q. Ellis, jrr was also
named.
Matters Of moment to the company
were discussed ct the meeting and the
probabilities are that, by the first Of
the coming month, the campaign at the
mine will be considerably broadened
Another ten days, it is believed, will
carry the face of the cross-cut from
the 1,500-foot level into the east assure
and disclosures there will largely de-
ternine what action will later be taken
concerning new work that has received
consideration.
The first really large body Of ore
that was ever uncovered in the west
hssure is that which has been devel-
oped on the 300 level. It has been run
through for a distance OF $50 feet
raised in thirty feet and sunk upon for
fifty feet below that level, and ship
ments have proven that It can all be
marketed at nice margin Of profit
but the mine IS not opened as it ought
to be TO get the best results. The main
shaft goes down to the 1,200 level; then
a winZe opens the mine to the 1,50O;
while stiIl another Wine has proven the
ore shoot up for fifty feet deeper. To
mine through these various openings
and at the same time take Of the east
assure, should it show up as expected.
is going to be too great an undertaking
as matters stand.
The executive committee is therefore
figuring whether It would not be wise
20 sink the main shaft at least 400 feet
deeper and thus make mining easy and
profitable on account Of the increased
tonnage that could be handled In the
east assure shows up right the work
win surely be ordered, and it may be.
anyhow. as the developments in the
west assure seem to fully justify it. To
put the shaft down 400 feet more will
cost about $4,000.
