GRAY C0PPER's ORE SHOOT

Since the Gray Copper COM
pany started work on its prop
erty near Osburn it has traced
the ledge for $50 feet down the
hill by means of open cuts which
prove the ledge to be wider than
at the discovery, point and to
carry. a shoot Of high grade ore
for the entipe distance. They
are still tracing the ledge down
the hill ana will continue to do
50 until it shows no more of the
high grade ore when a drift tun-
mel will be started on the vein to.
open it up and provide stoping
ground. The ;, work so far
accomplished has added enorm-
ously to the value Of the prop
erty by proving the persistence
and length Of the ore shoot.

his name when he departed for Butte.
shortly after, becaue he feared the
mineowner's blacklist, made up from
a petition that the employees of the
Bunker Hill mine had sent to Cover
nor Mcdonnell protesting against the
unsafety of the mine. Borah showed
that the petition had been presented
six years before and that Butte was a
federation camp, where the blacklist
was Ineffective. Passing to the
threat Orchard made against Steunen-
berg, the witness was unable to recall
what any one else had said on that
occasion except the words of Orchard.
Mrs. Lottie Day Of Denver testi-
fed that in 1904 Orchard told her
about the loss of the Hercules inter-
est, and with it the chance to "sup-
port the only woman he ever really
loved, and that he said he woul d
kill Steunenberg for the wrong done
him; and John D. Elliot, an old sold
Ter, swore that Orchard told him on
train in Idaho in the fall Of 1905
that he was in the employ of the
mineowners and that there was a plot
against the federation and its leaders.
Cross examination showed the fact
that Elliott had twice been an inmate
Of an insane asylum, with a mind
unbalanced by family troubles.
John NJ. O'Neil, editor of the
Miners Magazine, was the only
other witness during the day. He
testified that Orchard came to his
Office early in 1905 and asked for the
address of Governor Peabody and
General Sherman Bell, who he said
should be bumped off," O'Nei
said that he referred Orchard to a city
directory. The state used the croAs
examination of O'Neil to make i
clear that the magazine was the ottic
ial organ Of the federation, and OK
pressed its views, and to read to the
jury some sneering articles about thu
death of Steunenberg. O'Neil als'
said that he had seen Orchard at fed
Grafton headquarters several time
and that Steve Adams and Mrs. AID
ans had also been there.
