Mohave County miner., 1907-09-07

John l.. Witney, who is engineering the deal on the McCracken mines, was in Kingman last Sunday on busi ness. He has been working a force of men on the mines taking samples for experimental purposes and two tons of these samples were shipped to Los Angeles last Saturday. Owing to the low percentage of lead an attempt will be made to mill and cyanide the dry ores and pile the lead up for future smelling. Mr. Witney believes the mines to be among the richest prop critics in the territory and that they will be worked on large scale.
 H. M. Bowen has his hoisting plant in place on the P. K. mine, in IXL Basin, and already the workings have been unwatered and explorations have shown great bodies of lead and silver ore. Three large streaks of ore have been found in the sixty foot crosscut, two of which will produce shipable ore. As soon as the drifts have been cleared of waste the work of sinking working shaft will be commenced. Some drifting will be done on the ore streaks found in the crosscut to ascer- tain what may be expected of them. Mr. Bowen departed to Needles this week to confer with other mem bers of the company.

Bodies Burned

Salem, Ore. Dec. g. News of the
murder of four presons on a ranch,
near Macleay, has reached here. The
bodies of Mrs. Casteel, her daughter,
aged about "a; her son, aged about 10,
and the foreman of the ranch, man
named Montgomery, aged about SO,
were discovered in the burned ruins of
their abode on what is known as tho
Hurst ranch.
just how they were killed may never
be known, owing to the charred condi-
tion of the bodies, but from the fact
that shotgun and bloodstained hatch
ct were found near the place it is sur
missed that those weapons were used in
the slaughter. There ia some suspicion
as to the identity of the murderersand
the motive for the crime, but from the
best evidence at hand it wound seem
that. the killing was done by trampf
bent on robbery, who afterward fred

the victims had been accidently burned
to death. The family had about $4,000

Congress Again
In Session

Washington, Dec. 8. "A brilliant
scene characterized the meeting Of the
Sixtieth congress Monday. In the sen.
ate and the house Of representatives
there were notable gatherings in the
galleries of representatives Of the Off.
DIAL society of tho capital.
Tho striking scenes Of the day were
in the house Of representatives, where
the formal selection of Joseph g. Can
non to be speaker Of that body and the
designation by the democrats Of John
Sharp Williams as their leader were
occasions for ovations for those gentle.
men. The speaker received as warm q
reception from the minority as he did
from his own party. The appearance
of William j. Bryan on the floor of
the house also was the occasion for en-
thusiastic cheering by democrats.
When the adoption of the rules for
the government of the house during the
Sixtieth congress came up, the rules OF
the last congress were opposed by John
Sharp Williams and he was joined in
the opposition by democrats and by a
single republican, Mr.. Cooper of Wis
consin. The old rules were adopted.
Communities we're appointed by both
houses to inform the president that
congress had Elet and was ready to re.
ceive anv message he might wish tc

New senators and representatives
were sworn in, and both houses ad'
journed out of respect to the memory

SCANDAL
MURDER LAID TO COAL
LAND GRABBERS.
JOSEPH WALKER, GOVERNMENT
SECRET SERVICE MAN, KILLED
NEAR DURANGO, COL.

The Denver News publishes story
that Chief Wilkie Of the United States
secret service is In possession of a
mass Of evidence, some of which will
be verified by witnesses and much
more Of circumstantial nature, that
10 men are involved in the alleged con-
spiracy to murder United States Sc
cret Service Agent Joseph Walker,
who was killed at the Hesperus mine,
near Durango, Col, recently by a
miner named Vanderweide, while in
search of evidence to be used in the
prosecution OF men indicted on the
charge of defrauding the government
out OF valuable coal lands Chief
Wilkie is preparing a detailed report,
which will be submitted to President
Roosevelt on his request at an early
date.
Since the death of Walker, 80 men
from the government secret service
have been in the neighborhood gather.
ing evidence and when Chief Wilkie
visited that section few days ago a
full report was made to him. The claim
that Walker was shooting at Wander.
weide and Superintendent Mason OF
the Hesperus mine, who was with Van.
derweide at the time the latter killed
Walker, has always been secuted by
the government agents, on the theory
that it would have been impossible to
have shot Walker in the manner he
was shot had he been facing the men
and shooting at them.
| Following this view, they made eff
forts to ascertain if there was others
present at the time of the shooting anG
have learned that four other men, al
armed with rifles, were near by ant
were present, they claim, for the pur
pose of carrying out the alleged plar
to murder Walker 1t is further as
serted on good authority that the
names of these four men are in the
possession of the government repre-
sentatives, and they will be appre
hended in due time. The local branch
OF the department of justice has served
10 subpenas upon persons requiring
them to appear before the fedora
grand jury, which will meet in Denver
December IL, and has about a doze1
more to serve.
OF the persons already served, it i.
said that several are under suspicion
of being connected with the ALLEGED
conspiracy to kill Walker. An effort II

and United States District Attorne,
Earl Cranston was unavailing, boil
