Warm Time Expected at Meeting of
ReOrganiEed Mining Company at
Cheyenne Today.

CHEYENNE Wyo., Feb. 2.-(Special)-
There will be something doing here to-
morrow when the annual meeting of the
stockholders of the Portland Mining com
pany of Cripple Creek is held. The old
fight between Millionaire James F. Burns
Of Colorado Surings and the Howberts and
others, who are now in control of the af-
fairs of this celebrated gold producer, will
be continued. This will be the first regular
meeting of the company since it's transfer
from Council Bluffs, Ia, and reorganiza-
ton under the laws of Wyoming. Several
attorneys and others representing Mr.
Burns are already on the ground, and the
opposing faction will probably come In to-
night and tomorrow.
Mr. Burns will charge many things.
chief among which will be that the present
officers have mismanaged the affairs of
the company, have doctored the books,
records and reports and have mIsrepre-
scented conditions so that the stockholders
are unable to tell where they are at.
Eighteen months ago the stock of the
Portland company was selling at SIG, now
the same stock is bringing SIS.
Mr.. Burns, although he owns more than
100000 shares of stock, and although he
claims those in power own less than 10000
shares, says he is denied the right to in
spect the books and records. The voting
power OF the present management is gained,
he says, through handling the interests
OF the stratton and Shannon estates.
1t is expected that Mr.. Burns will make
many sensational declarations, and a free
for-all night is one OF the possible occur
rences.

Four Hundred Persons Receive spir-

The closing meeting of the union revival
services last night attracted a congrega-
ton which packed the large auditorium
Of the First Presbyterian church to the
doors. That the revival has been success
full was demonstrated when at the close of
mis- address DIR. Otterbein Smith asked
those who had derived a spiritual uplift-
ing from the meetings to stand up. over
400 persons responded to the invitation and
arose
Announcement was made that the volun-
tary contributions at the services had very
nearly been sufficient to meet the expenses
of the revival meeting for the three weeks
A feature of the meeting last night was
the singing by Rev. Charles Mayne OF
THE World Is Dying for a Little Bit Of
Love-" A few years ago, while pastor
Of the Methodist church at Iowa Falls,
Rev. Mr.. Mayne was shot in bed one night
by burglar. That night p. e. Excel of
Chicago had sung this hymn at the Sunday
school revival and the words of 1t were Still
ringing in Rev. Mr.. Maynes ears when he
fell asleep. The first words he muttered
after regaining consciousness after being
operated on for the terrible wounds he re-
ceived from the burglar were those of this
hymn.

Petitions Circulated Asking Passage
of Meredith Bill.
petition is to be circulated throughout
the city today asking the Representatives
from Pottawattamie county in the state
legislature to use their influence to secure
the passage of the anti-Sunday theater
bill which has been introduced by Repre-
sentative Meredith of Cass county The
subject was brought up and discussed at
the close of the mems meeting held yes
terday afternoon in connection with the
union revival services and the bill APP
parently received the unanimous endorse
'ment of those present. Rev. Charles Mayne,
pastor of Trinity Methodist church, spoke
at length on the subject OF Sunday theaters
and the bill prohibiting them. Members
of the First Baptist church present spoke
especially in favor of the passage of such
a bill. as they claimed the services in their
church had been frequently interfered with
by the playing of street bands belonging
to cheap theatrical shows which paraded
the streets and gave open afr concerts in
the immediate vicinity of the church.
Resolutions were adopted calling upon the
representatives from this county not only
to vote for but to use their influence for
the passage OF the bill. These resolutions
were signed by about 100 men present at
the meeting
The subject was again brought up at the
close of the general meeting at night and a
large number OF additional signatures Sc
cured. II was then decided to circulate
the petition throughout the city and a
committee with Rev. Charles Mayne was
appointed to carry out this plan.
The bill introduced by Representative
Meredith does not include base ball. as did
his bill last session. which failed to pass.
The Meredith bill proposes the following
amendment TO the present state Sunday
law:
II any person or persons shall on the
first day of the week, commonly called
Sunday. either as owner. lessee, agent or
manager of ally theater or opera house,
give or knowingly permit others 10 give
in such theater or opera house any theat-
rical or operatic performance or wrestling

scription. for which money or any reward
or compensation whatever is in any man.
