MINES in MANY CAMPS.

The theory that the valuable ore
bodies of Rossland camp would be
found only upon Red mountain and
only within the triangle formed by
the convergihg Josie and Center Star
dykes, a space only 5000 feet across,
has been entirely disproven by an i'm
mense strike made last week in the
Idaho mine, to the east of the big
Center Star dyke.

even this has failed to check the

The recent cuts in the price of dead
are said cut down the profits of the

by about $4,000 day or $4,000 a
year. This huge decrease in earnings
has much to do with the drop in the
price of Canadian Consolidated stock.

bob" EVANS is DIsoBEDIENT
Report Is That Admiral May Lose
His Command as Result.


His Command as Result.
"Fighting Bob" Evans, it has be-
came known, is decidedly on the outs
with the general naval board at Wash
ington. Serious friction exists be-
tween the admiral and the bureau Of
ficers who rank him. He has disre-
garded their orders and run things his
own way, they complain. The trouble,
coming as it does on the eve of the
cruise of Rear Admirals fleet around
the Horn, has caused a sensation
among naval men and government of
ficials. Naval circles in New York
fairly buzzed with gossip about it.
Only the peculiar position of Flight
ing Bob" it is said, saved him from
official reprimand or perhaps court
martial. Another officer who treated
the board as Evans has would I'M
doubtedly have been called to the
front for explanation. But nothing
has been done in his case, because of
his unquestioned ability and the
public's deep affection for him.

TWENTY LIVES LOST
STEAMER CYPRESS SUNK In
LAKE SUPERIOR.
All of the Crew of %, Excepting the
Second Mate, Were Lost-BeIleVed
the Machinery Was Broken Down
Foundering Probably Due to Leak
Captain Had His Family Aboard.

The steel steamer Cypress, owned
by the Lackawanna transportation
company and on her second trip down
the lakes with cargo of coal, was
wrecked in Lake Superior, 20 miles
from Grand Marais, and all of the
crew, of %, excepting the second
mate, were lost.
He was washed ashore near Deer
Park, dashed to life raft and barely
alive.
He has suffered terribly from cold
and exposure.
Two bodies have been washed ashore
at Deer Park.
The Cypress was a new boat, 440
feet long, with capacity of 7400 tons.
1t is believed that the machinery was
broken, as the northwest storm was
not severe enough to wreck such a
strong ship
The indications are that the founder
ing was due to leak. The steamer
George Stevenson reported that she
had passed the Cypress. A red streak
was distinguishable in the water be-
hind her, indicating that her plates
had been sprung and that the iron ore
with which the ship was loaded was
discoloring the water. Captain Har-
botelle of the Stevenson says he pass
ed so close that he could see that the
matches of the Cypress were not Gov
cred. A heavy sea was running and
the decks of the Cypress were continu-
ally awash with the combers that
broke over the rails. Late in the night
the lights of the vessel near Deer
park were visible to the crew of the
Stevenson and then suddenly disap-
peared.
