FIRST STEAMER
 FOR NOME

Seattle, Wash, May 1O.-The steamer Corwin, owned by the l.. K. Gray Steamship company, left this port today for the north mining n owns. She is the first vessel to --.pke the trip this season. Al. though the Corwin is the first boat to leaEe, the season will practically open with the sailing of the steam ships Ohio, Victoria, Pleiades and Senator, which depart on June 1. The Pleiades is the only steamer that does not carry passengers, and all available space on the other three steamers has already been engaged. The Corwin has the dis tinction of having been the first vessel into Nome every season for the last six years. The first vessel to arrive at Nome is always greeted with great enthusiasm.

CHEAP KNIT GOODS
 BECOMING SCARCE

New York. May 10.-Bu%ers of knit goods, as well as sellers are feeling more encoura ged owing to the settlement of the carders' strike at cohoes and other to"ns satis- factorily. The restricted output of cheap lines of underwear has been keenly felt since the spring season opened, and it is stated in reliable quarters that the decrease in the output in women's cheap ribbed goods in New York state alone amounts to practically 5000 dozen per day. Some manufacturers are reported to have entirely abandoned the manufacture of 9 cent ribbed goods for the coming season, and it now looks as if retail buyers will have to eliminate the 23 cent goods from their fall lines. For the spring season of 1908 the situa tion seems to be mixed as ever and jobbers are beginning to show con- siderable anxiety regarding prices and the securing of new goods. Tn some quarters it is reported that advances of from 10 to 12 1-2 cents a dozen over last years figures have been offered for 300 and 400 case lots of 25 cent goods. In each instance these offers are said to have been refused.

A BIG COPPER FIND
Interested With Ed Butler. Millionaire St. Louis HOrsGsh0er and Politician -MiIIiOns of Dollars Worth Of Ore JInearthed in New Mexico.
According to reports that come

According to reports that come from Silver City, N. M., there are several well-knoWn Pine Bluff busl- ness men who are in fair way to become millionaires through pig find in the Bonanza copper mine. II the reports are true and they ap- pear well authenticated, it will make a number of Pine BlufflanS rich including Fred l.. Dilley, Brun- son Hammett, J. Renwick Campbell, Frank Roane and Harry Trulock.
 The St. Louis Post-Dispatch yes terday contained the following ac- count of the find:
 Fortune has again smiled upon Col. Ed Butler, the millionaire master horseshoer and former po litical boss. Col. Butler is one of a number of St. Louis people who have struck it rich in copper mine in the Burro mountains, 12 miles southeast of Silver City, N. M.
 'Col. and Mrs. Butler and their grandchildren, Jack and Miss Agnes Butler, have just returned from the mines. They were members of @ party which included Thomas Ward McManus, one of St. Louis biggest landlords; Peter G. Linchey and William S. Haynes, all of whom are interested in the property. They went down into the shaft and saw $7,0Oo,0OO to $10,oOO,O ,OO0 worth of copper ore blocked out. Samples of the ore assay from 20 tO B per cent pure copper. ~-.l~,. 'i Other St. Louisians interested in the mine are Sim T. Price and his son: James J. Butler, Edward B. Lane, Charles P. Langhlin, dis coverer and superintendent of the mine; J. B. Johnson and John P Cabanne.
 'The National Copper company, edpltdifLCu lOl PI I,- VV,0VV, OW llS the mine, nearly all the stock be- ing held by St. Louis people. None of it has ever been sold publicly. The company has raised money to build crushers and sme1ters, and is taking large quantities of copper from the mines. The product now is smelted at Silver City. but within the next few months the company will have it's own mills in opera ton.
 'The mine is situated in one of the BurrO mountains that abuts the White Water canon. \ tunnel was drilled into the side of the moun- tain GOO feet below the summit. At distance of 300 feet from the mouth of the tunnel a vein of 60 feet wide was struck It is es- timated that $500 feet of the vein is on the property owned by the St Louis people.
 The owners expect to keep dig aing until they are compelled to

Chattanooga, Tenn, May 10.- Decoration day is being celebrated today with much eclat, although it was thought best to dispense with oratory Soloists and duets and choruses enlivened the gathering, which composed the best that Chat tanooga has in the way of manly men and lovely women. The Daughters of the Confederacy had charge of the affair.

stop on account of the heat, which,
 ill the Calumet mines in Michigan and the mines in Spain, Wales and Eng.and, is encountered at a depth of about 5000 feet. As the depth increases the percentage of l gold becomes greater. The gold in l the ore taken out of the National mine is now sufficient to pay the operating expenses, the copper as pure velvet
 The mills and smelters are building 1,500 feet down the canon from the mines. A gravity tramway has been constructed to connect the mine with the mills. The ore is taken from the mine and dumped into the cars. No power whatever is needed. AS a stream of water flows down the canon it is also SUD- piled by nature. Preparations are now being made to operate the mine to the 300-foot level below the mouth of the tunnel. Within this this section it is estimated the con- per will be worth more than ST. 0OO,0OO.
 The proposition was brought to St. Louis by Mir. Laughlin, who has spent many years among the noun tains of the United States and Mexico.
 A 1ew St. Louis people, among them Sim T. Price, a lawyer, be- came interested in the proposition. That was five years ago.
 They interested men with money among them Col Butler and Mr. Me- Manus. James J. Butler is president of the company and William s. Haynes is secretary. These two officers wifh Sim T. Price, Col Butler and Mr. Laughlin. constitute the board of d rectors.
 The mine which is now being op- erated is but short distance from tn, mother-lode, which extends through the company's property. The mother lode is 250 feet in width. The mine is about 6,500 feet above the sea level.
 Col Butler and party returnel highly elated. Mr. Price told a Post Dispatch reporter that S10,000, ,0O0 would not buy the mine as it stands today. Col. Butler holds stock in the mine, winch is now worth consider ably more than S1,O00,00O. Brooks Johnson, the money lender, could close out his stock at half a million if he desired to part with it. Three railroads will soon be completed to the mines, affording ample transporta- tion facilities. The Tyrone and Le3- pold mines, both big producers of ! much lower grade ore, are in opera ton in the Burro Mountains, and are said 10 be paying big profits
