With the Coal Miners.

Gold and zinc mines will not by
any means monopolize the attention
of Fergus county mining men dur
ing the winter. A number Of coal
mines will be thoroughly opened up
during the winter. The Central Mon
tana Coal Co. are going to work a
big force of men all winter getting
out coal and developing the prop
erty. AS early as possible in the
spring they will start on the track
from the mine to this city. Ground
has been secured from the Montana
Railroad company and bunkers will
be erected just few hundred feet
from the passenger depot during the
coming weeks. The company who
took over the Brew & Parsons mine
will employ big force of men, as
will the Spring Creek Coal Co. There
are number of smaller mines which
will keep several men busy, thereby
adding to the payroll.

The above, taken from the Wyom.
ing State Journal, has reference to
the property which was examined by
J: T. Wuiderlin of this city, E. w.
King Of Bozeman and John McGee,
formerly of Kendall ,and found to be
a monumental fraud. The Greenough
brothers of Missoula and Spokane
had bond on the property and had
made the first payment. In addition,
they had done several hundred thou
sand dollars worth of DEVELOPMENT
work, their entire outlay on the prop
osition being over 100000. The lay
out consisted of $1,000 acres of land.
t placer proposition which was said
to assay from 81 to SO per yard. f.
w. King was invited to get in on
the good things" but decided to do
a little investigating on their own
hook before taking the step. Ac.
cordingly, he, Wunderlin and McGee
went down and sampled for a few
days. They easily discovered the
fraud and as result of their irvesti-
cations. the entire scheme was laid
bare. Thus, if Captain Henderson
makes good his threat, at least three
highly esteemed citizens of Montana,
to say nothing of R. K Neill and the
Greenough boys, are likely soon to
take up their residence in Wyom-
ing caliboos. The friends in this
city of Messrs. Wunderlin and King
will use their best efforts to see that
the gentlemen are made comfortable
during their incarceration,

MINING

The rapidly approaching winter
will see the ground work done for
more genuine mining in Fergus coun-
ty when spring opens than was ever
before contemplated. OF course, the
big mines will run along steadily and
there are several properties in the
Kendall, Gilt Edge, Maiden and Cone
Butte districts which have passed the
prospective point. In addition to the
Barnes King and Kendall, the San
tiago will be producing gold in large
and paying quantities before spring.
Work will be rushed on such ex-
cellent propositions as the North
Kendall, the Golden Discovery, the
Hedges and Others the names of
which do not now occur to us. In
the Maiden district, the War Eagle
is almost sure of plant for the
treatment of the immense bodies Of
high grade gold and zinc ore. Pete

Capt ]. B. Henderson returned
Thursday evening from Thermopolis
with the welcome news that he has
formed another company to take up
the Red Canon placer project just as
soon as the Greenoughs formally
relinquish the lands which will be
on January lst if they make no
further payments. Capt. Henderson
also states his intention of prose-

district has completed arrangements
for the erection of plant through
which the rich ore of that property
is to be worked. Work on the mill
will begin within a very few weeks.
A mill is assured for the property of
the Cone Butte Mining company who
have one of the biggest and surest
gold mines in the state already open
ed up. The Ford Creek Mining COM
pany, recently organized, will hasten
work on their property and stand
ready to go through with a mill
proposition just as quickly as they
have opened up the mine sufficiently
to justify it. The Gold Reef mill is
running and will continue to run all
winter with nice profit for the men
who have it leased.

No great issue was at stake in any
of the elections, and interest was at
a low ebb.
The republicans lost a few mem
bers of the assembly, probably six.
The republicans were victorious in
the cities of Buffalo, Albany, Roches-
ter, Syracuse, Oswego and Utica, the
republicans electing mayor in the
latter place for the first time in Ia
wears.
To Offset this, the democrats car
ried Newburgh for the first time in

ORABLE TO DEMOCRATS,

Baltimore, Nov. E. - Maryland
which was in doubt last night, has
elected the democratic candidate for
governor, Judge Austin L. Crothers,
and the entire state democratic ticket,
by about 1000 plurality. The legis-
lature is democratic. Ex-Governor

short term.

New York, Nov. 6-The election
in Greater New York has been largely
favorable to the democrats. New

ONE MILLION TONS
 LOST EACH WEEK
MeSaba Strike Has Had a Bad
 Effect on Business
IMPORTATION SLOWS DOWN
Iror Market Abroad Shows an Ad- vance In Prices and Very Little Business Is Coming In From
 Home or Abroad.

New fork. July 24.-The Iron Age to- morrow will discuss the strike of the dock men at the upper Lake Superior shipping harbors and of the n1esaba miners. saying they have no imme- diate effect upon production since the blast furnaces are supplied with crews.
 Tt is estimated" the Iron Age will say that the loss in the ore ship ments thus far has been 1.00O, 900 tons and by the end of this week it will reach 2,O00,0o0 tons There is little chance that the 42,000.000 tons which II was hoped to bring down during the season can now be attained. Every idle week will cut off 1000, 900 tons more. It Is said that an effort will be made to start work on the docks at onee Some of the Mesaba mines are still in operation
 Any prolonged suspension of work will probably lead to the blowing out of some of the furnaces which have been In need of repairs and which have been kept in operation because the iron was imperatiyely needed. The leading interest has five furnaces in this con dition. Negotiations have been pro- gressing during the past few days for the purchase of about 15 ,00O tons of Bessemer pig in the Pittsburg district for August delivery. The same inter- est may also purchase some basic pig in the east.
 Those who have been the leaders in the importation of pig iron report that the movement is now practically over, the last boats being at hand. Abroad the market has had a sharp advance to 59 shillings for Middle borough One of the larger contracts for structural material which have been pending, both in this market and in Chicago has been closed
 "Very little bushes Is coming from domestic sources, the only important sale having been about 12,000 tons to Japan by the United States Steel cor poration.
 "The copper market continues very dull. The conviction is growing that there will be no change in the atti- tude of buyers until the metal is avail able at 20 cents."
