Judge Whitson Threatens to Clear the
Courtroom

BOISE, Oct. 2.-At one point in his
cross examination Senator Borah was
loudly applauded by the crowded
courtroom. Judge Whitson gave notice
that repitition of the demonstration
would result in excluding all specta-
tors. The arguments were entered
upon this afternoon
Lewiston evening teller. [volume] (Lewiston, Idaho) 1903-1911, 1907-10-02

After some debate, In which M. b
Harben's was the only dissenting
voice, the Seattle Commercial club
adopted the report of the special COM
mittee appointed week ago to inves-
tigate coal conditions in this and other
states with special reference to recon-
mendations for a remedy. The COM
mittee signing the report, which is
herewith given In part, was composed
of c. A. Reynolds and M. B. Jackson.
Alleging that there is a coal COM
bine in existence in Seattle today for
the purpose of keeping the prices up to
an exorbitant figure; that the coal
dealers are making an average profft
! of $3.50 on every ton of coal sold; that
the increase in profits TO dealers in the
last two years has been 10 per cent,
as against an increase OF 10 per cent In
wages paid employees at the mines, the
| committee recommended that the Conn
mercial club call the attention of the
attorney general of Washington to the
existing state of affairs with view to
| dealing with the coal operators under
the law against such combinations.
The congressional delegation from this
state win also be requested to give aid
and President Roosevelt will be serVkd
with a request that he recommend to
congress a law abolishing the tariff OF
! 40 cents ton on coal between British
Columbia and the United States, and
any other legislation which might tend
to alleviate the present coal stringency
on the coast.

Seattle Commercial Club
Takes Step to Relieve
Conditions.

SEATTLE, Wash. Oct. 2.-Profit to
mine owners in excess of cost Of pro-
duction and transportation is exactly
125 per cent.
Cry of coal famine raised for purpose
of raising prices already beyond what
is reasonable and just, and steps
should be taken to prevent such an
outrage.
Only shortage of coal is that created
for dishonest purposes.
Attention of attorney general OF
the state should be called to the sit
uation in Seattle, and action provided
for by the laws of the state which
cover such cases.
Annual grand jury should be provid-
ed for by state laws, and coal condi-
tions should be made subject of inves-
tigation by such a body.-Points
brought out by report on coal condi-
tions filed by Commercial club inves-
tigating committee last night.

J. E. DU BOTS DECLINES
YANKEE CON. PROPOSAL

At the special meeting of the Yankee
Consolidated, held a few days ago, and
at which the proposition to add the
Mountain View and Lake View proper
ties to the company Ssholdings was dis
cussed, a committee was appointed to
lay a plan of consolidation before John
E. Du Bots, the practical owner of the
ground mentioned. 1t was stated at
that meeting that it was known that
Mr.. Du Bots would entertain a propo-
sition to double the capital stock of
the Yankee and accept the extra stock
in exchange for the Mountain View
company's ground and the Lake View
claim.
Minority interests i'm the company
argued that that was too much, and the
committee named was finally instruct
ed 10 notify Mr. Du Bots that, If he
would accept 250,0OO shares and turn
into the Yankee treasury $4,000 that
was in the Mountain News strong
box, and would then consent ito the
payment of a dividend by the Yankee
company TO the old shareholders in an
amount equal to half of the money on
hand. they stood ready to sanction the
closing of a deal that might be ratified
at the regular annual meeting next
month. The committee yesterday got a
reply from Mr.. Du Bots in which he, in
a few words, declined to consider the
offer. He made no counter proposition,
SO the matter is ended and there will
be no consolidation of the properties.

BINGHAM BUTTE MINES
OPENING UP STRONG

A few weeks ago it was stated that
the Bingham Butte company was open
ing up a splendid body of lead ore on
its new tunnel level and if memory is
not at fault, it was then stated that the
tunnel had gone about seventy feet into
the mass. Since then. it was learned at
the local offices of the company yester-
day, the tunnel has been steadily ad-
vancing in ore a considerable portion of
which is high grade. The tunnel has
now been in the ore body for $50 feet
straight away. The first cross-cut was
Started about forty feet back from the
present face of the tunnel a few days
ago and ethat has now been advanced
sixteen feet. all the way in ore. How
much wider the ledge will prove to be
on that Level cannot be stated. nor will
much of an effort be made to find out,
at least until the tunnel has been ex-
tended another seventy feet to get d.
Fectly under the winze that was sunk in
ore for 100 feet below the old upper tun-

mel workings, $50 feet vertically above
the new tunnel in which the ore body
is now being driven through. Counting
the dip of the ledge, there is just about
270 feet of ground between the lower
tunnel and the bottom of the winze that
was sunk from the Caledonia, or upper
tunnel workings and. as the latter was
prospected at. one point for thirty feet
east OF where the Wine goes down, the
presumption naturally is that the lower
workings will at least show ore for that
distance after the next seventy feet has
been driven. The face of the lower tun-
mel is now in high-grade galena ore and
the management is so elated over con-
ditions generally at the property that
no one figures on anything less than
the development of the biggest shoot of
lead ore in the camp of Bingham.

what has caused the drop from Monday 5
