Optimistic Reports

Gen. Frank Hall, in the Denver Post
of Tuesday. has the following to say in
regard to mining conditions in this
part of the west and as his reference
refers to this section, his comments
are appended:
Recent conversations with Denver
merchants. machinery makers and
mine operators, a considerable num-
Der Of such class having been inter-
viewed give without exception the
comforting assurance that business is
good. There is no whining about the
hard times. No perceptible feeling
other than buoyant optism.
In the broad field of mining. which
at first suffered keenly from the de-
cline in the prices of metals there is
now apparent in most sections a strong
hope Of gradual betterment as the CON
ditions Of the whole country improve
One of the large operators in Clear
Creek county said to me: "My mine
being in good condition l can make
money at existing prices and am de-
veloping on the same plans as before
the panic began. Lead is 4.5O silver
above SO and as we have no zinc to
contend with tie situation is, if not
all that could be desired, quite salts
factory"
This is true of the district about Ida
no Springs but in Georgetown and some
other places where zinc has been a
prominent factor there is less activity.
But affairs even there are in more pro
missing state than during the first quar-
ter Of this year. The Post recorded on
Sunday last, news of an important
strike in the mines of the Joplin com
pany which is destined to become d
a large factor in the ore market, and
we have well grounded report that
that the great Waldorf mines at East
Argentine will soon be outputtine-
under new arrangements recently con-
ciuded-more extensively than ever
before. After the foregoing was
written Philip ixsell of Idaho Springs
called and gave me an outline of the
work being done through the Newhouse ,
tunnel, which" he said lis a sight
worth seeing. All it's tram cars are
in use and all crowded with ore sent
out from the various properties along
its three miles of track. The major part
of the concentrating mills are work
ing under the pressure of more
stuff than they can promptly handle and
the volume is steadily increasing. The
Specie Payment on Bellevue mountain
is sending out through its Two Bro
thers tunnel from 2, 500 to 5000 tons
of ore per month. 1t manager, A. M. 4
Wells is ma k ng that one of the great II,
mining enterprises of the state"

Richmond Will Be Represent
ed at the Meeting Which
Will Be Held in Columbus, O.
To Determine Organization.
BOBBY QUINN HAS NOT
ACCEPTED PRESIDENCY.
1t Is Practically Certain, How
ever That the Crown Will Be
Placed on the Manager of
The Columbus A. A. Team.

Richmond will be represented at the
meeting of the Ohio baseball owners
which will be held in Columbus, O., to-
morrow to determine what cities shall
compose the new Ohio league. Sew,
eral members of the local amusement
association will leave for Columbus to-
morrow morning. In speaking of the
new league, a Columbus, O., dispatch
says:
Erroneous are the statements to the
effect that Business Manager Bobby
Quinn of the Columbus club has &C
copied the presidency of the new
league that is contemplated for seven
thriving towns of this section of Ohio
Rnd Richmond, Indiana.
1t is true that some time ago, when
break in The Ohio-Penn league Sc IL
ed imminent, club owners of the west
ern division were on the alert and, in
casting about for a chief executive of
their probable new league. decided that
MIR. Quinn would be an ideal organizer.
. After having n proposition made to
Afm, the Columbus man said that he
would be willing to do what he could
toward getting the league foundation
laid and he has done considerable
work already in the interests of the
prospective organization.
However. it is no cinch that he will

Settled probably at meeting here in
Columbus tomorrow. of the owners of
the Marion. Mansfield. Lancaster and
Newark clubs, together with gentlemen
who wish to control the teams that
may be placed in Springfield, Lima,

So far as known there is no other !
candidate for the presidency Quinn, |
u some little details in connection with |
the office can be adjusted. will he able |
70 assist in the compete organization /
of the league and to give attention to !
the administration for at least half the ,
time of the playing season
1T is understood that Richmond, is |
already prepared TO fulfill all entry re-
quirements. Clarence Jessup is the |
Richmond manager. and membership
of his club in the new league will give
that town better baseball than it has
ever had.
There may be scramble for the
Lima franchise. That town is regard
ed highly by baseball men who know |
the situation well. 1t is possible that
an Ohio-Penn veteran manager may be !
placed in charge of the club

EVER WITH EFFECT.

New Castle, Ind. Jan. 10 That an
organized gang OF thieves is engaged
in Iooting the stores and postofticcs in
the small towns of the county is the
firm belief of the authorities. Al an
early hour the general store OF +. O

was identically the same as ar Mt.

But Two Miles Apart
The towns of spriueport and Mt.
Summit are only Two miles apart. Both
have general stores which do a large
businessswith the surrounding farming
community and as there is no bank at
either place the burglars figured on
making rich haul. However. since
the Mt. Summit robbery storekeepers
IN other towns have not kept fmuch
money in their places of business.
hence Peckinpaugh did not lose as
West did in the first robbery at Mt.
Summit. Both jobs have ear marks
OF having been done by the same par
ties. hence the belief of the authorities
that an organized gang is doing the
work, possibly having headquarters at
Anderson. In the Mt. Summit rob
berry the robbers drove TO near Ander-
son in stolen rig and there aban-
doned il. The authorities were mott
fed and are working on the case, but
have absolutely no clue as 10 the iden-
t of the persons accountable for the
work.
