ANTI-SUNDAY BALL IDEA.
Novel Plan to Fight Is Developed ID
Town OF Kalamazoo. p


Kalamazoo. Mich, July 17.-In an
effort to bring about as far as pos
sible opposition to Sunday baseball,
Sunday schools in six of the leading
churches in the city have organized
baseball teams. and the Kalamazoo
Sunday School Baseball league has
been formed. A regular schedule last
ing far into September has been pre-
pared. Games are played four days
each week. The first requirement of
an applicant is that he shall not play
ball on Sunday. neither shall he wit
ness a Sunday game.
Members of the Sunday schools
contend that the incarnation is grow
ing to play and watch ball games on
town lots on the Sabbath. and IL is this
they hope to break up. No one
who will play Sunday ball, or en-
courage the Sunday game, is well
come to witness the game in this
league.

is the elimination OF George J. Gould
from the galaxy of railway magnates
and the substitution of Edward II. Har.
riman to be the next great move on
the transportation checkerboard?
No wonder Wall street is quivering
with excitement, for with Edward II.
Hartman as the guiding hand of the
Gould system his power in the railroad
field would be so great as to be almost
uncanny. In the entire west there
would be none to dispute his autoeratic
sway except where his lines thread the
Pacific northwest and encroach upon
the domain of James j. Hill, and he
would practically be the master of two
great railway systems stretching from
the Pacific to the Atlantic and from the
gulf to the great lakes, and almost to
the Canadian border. His power in
the traffic world would be well nigh
supreme, for his would be the abili-
ty to dictate as to rates and conditions
surrounding traffic to the four corners
of the United States.

MINES, MINING and the MARKETS

copper market can be regarded as on
thoroughly sound basis. The recent
advance is the result of fundamental
change for the better. +"
The freight rate agitation continues
in all sections of the country and the
opinion is growing that the railroads
have made a mistake in inviting the
enmity of shippers at such time as
this. Protective associations are or
ganizing everywhere for the purpose of
opposing the advance, and the move
ment will undoubtedly have the sup.
port of the state authorities wherever
the agitation develops. The south is
getting ready to vigorously oppose any
increase in traffic rates in its terri
tory and the fight will undoubtedly be
carried to the legislatures when they
convene next winter. This result was
expected by the conservative banking
interests in Wall street, who have ex-
erted their influence to prevent any at.
tempt on the part of railroad managers
to increase the burdens of shippers at
this time. They predicted that such a
movement was sure to lead to a revival
on anti.railroad legislation.

CANANEA INCREASES
OPERATIONS FAST
Employees Numbers $500 Men
To Further Increase.

"If no unforeseen difficulties arise
the Cananea smelter will be running
full time within two months, with every
furnace WORKING DR.. l.. d. Ricketts,
general manager of the Greene Cananea
mines, is quoted as saying at FL Paso.
DIR. Ricketts, passed through Bisbee yes.
terday morning en- route to Cananea
from Chicago, where he has been the
past two weeks in conference with
stockholders of the company. The doe
tor said that the Chicago conference
was merely discussion of the reopen
ing of the Cananea camp and was of
no interest.
At present there are four furnaces
working, according to DIR. Ricketts,,
with about $500 men employed. This
force of men will probably be inereas-
ed to about $500 or 1000 within a
short time. The original force employ
ed at the smelter and mines before
the shut down was 5000. Since that
time, however. modern machinery has
been installed which will do away with
the labor of great number of men,
DR.. Ricketts, said that there were
enough men in the camp at present to
fill the positions his company could offer
and that he would not advise laborers
to go to the camp. Because of the
fact that the report has gained cir
eulation that the mines and smelter
were open, hundreds of laborers have
come into camp and we have been un.
able to give them employment, with
the result that many of them have suf
fered,' DIR. Ricketts, said

COLD STRIKE IN
JESSIE EXTENSION
PROMISES TO sURPAss ANY FIND
IN BIG BUG DISTRICT IN RE-
CENT YEARS ORE GOES $40 TO
500 PER TON.

An ore body which promises to sur
pass in extent and richnes any find
| in recent years in the Big Bug district
was uncovered recently in the Grace
claim an extension of the Jessie mine
| 700 feet west of the Jessie working
shaft at depth of 300 feet, says the
Journal Miner. The strike will infuse
new life into the Jessie mine, which has
record in production of over 100000
in gold. President John 8. Jones, OF
the Jessie Mines company, is now ar
ranging to start development opera
tions at the new find on larger scale
than at any time since the palmy days
of the Jessie, when its rich mineral
treasures were exploited by Frank
Wright of this city, netting him a
handsome fortune.
The new find is due to the persistence,
energy and Judgment of John 5. Jones,
who found the ore after running drift
200 feet along a cross vein through
ground almost barren, the ore body be-
ing uncovered in crosscut. AS re-
suit of the discovery new working
shaft will be made at point to be
decided later on the new find, the shaft
TO be made from an upraise from the
bottom. Drifts are being run each
way ON the, ledge, which is now opened
distance of fifteen feet, showing four
feet or ore, part of which samples from
SO to 500 to the ton, with seven feet
of ore of lower grade apd vein filling
that samples $3.50 to the ton.
Speaking of the new find to Jour
nal. Miner man yesterday, President
ZONES stated that he believed it to be
the most important discovery ever made
in the mine. He is arranging to push
it's development as fast as possible, so
that the Jessie mine may be reasonably
expected to be on the shipping : list
again in very short time.
West of the Jessie shaft, the Jessie
vein is intersected by several cross
veins. Extending the drift on the 800
foot level west from the Jessie SHAFT
one of the cross lodges was followed
distance of nearly 200 feet, hardly any
ore being found. Jones, in his investl-
cations. discovered that the vein filing
in the drift differed in character from
that of the Jessie. He started cross
cut and after running forty feet broke
into the rich ore body described. The
vein filing of the new find is similar
to that of the Jessie, the ore being
also of the same character. He is now
satisfied that he is working on the
Jessie vein. The Jessie mine has now
blocked out in it's mile of drifts and
crosseuts $4,000 worth of ore, accord.
ing to recent estimate of conserva-
tive mining engineer.
The Jessie mine was discovered and
located by Jones in 1889. The succeed
ing three years it was the largest ship
per in the Big Bug district. Ore of
milling grade, estimated in value at
$500, 900, is now lying on the dumps
awaiting the installation of large re-
duetion plant for treatment.
The eompanys holdings comprise
fourteen claims and a ranch of 100
acres on the Aqua Fria river, six miles
east of the mines, which covers val
liable water right. The Jessie mine is
exploited at depth of $50 feet.

The week Just closed was the best
the stock market has had this year
especially the copper shares, most of
which scored substantial gains. Manip.
ulation played a large part in the adj
vance, but there was some basis for
the strength in copper shares, as the
metal was strong, advancing to l3Ac
for Lake on better buying for consump-
tion. The close yesterday was strong,
with no sign of liquidation. However,
some of the best brokerage houses are
