Foreign exchanges have been steadily

gold IS badly needed, and where the next

gone but tor the imposition OF the per
cent rate. II is known that requirements
from other centres would soon reduce the

Berlin. Oct. 2L-The action of the Bank
Of England in raising its discount rate to-
day took Berlin completely by surprise.
Financters. in discussing the Increased rate,
assign American speculation and demand
for money as the chief cause. Nothing
can be ascertained tonight regarding the
London report OF German demand for
gold This, however is discredited, and
the financial newspapers apparently are
not aware OF Il.
A steady rise in the English check rate
in the last few days has already raised
the fear that the gold export point Will
be reached soon. In that event, another
advance by the Imperial German Bank IS
regarded as certain. In the mean time II
is understood that. n the opinion OF the
managers of the Imperial German Bank.
no occasion exists for a further advance
NOW. The recovery movement this week
is progressing satisfactorily.

ties are owned and operated by the
Iroquois Mining company, composed
principally of DanviIIe, H., people.
The company came in possession of
the properties in the early part of
May Of last year and the first work
undertaken was the sinking of the
shaft, which at that time Was down
about 40 feet. Since last May the
shaft has been sunk 220 feet and 1870
feet of drifting has been done in
the 22o-foot level east and 11o feet
west from the shaft. The property
is equipped with a first-class plant
Of machinery, adequate to permit of
op.rations to depth of from 500
to 600 feet.
OF course, the work done prior
to this time being in the nature of
development, has entaiIed heavy
outlay, but now that good pay ore
has been opened up,the mines will
reimburse the stockholders for the
money advanced. Located as the Iro-
quois and LoriIard are in the very
heart of a rich producing seetion,Iess
than 1000 feet from the celebrated
War Dance which has yielded ore
worth as high as $64,ooo.oo to the
ton, It is reasonable to contemplate
that these properties will make a
remarkable showing from now on.
Practical and economical methods
are employed in the operation Of
these properties which will aid
materially in making the mines sue
cessfuI. Thomas Dunstone, recogniz-
ed as one of the best informed and
most thorough mining men in the
camp, who made a reputation for
himself on the Running Lode, is
manager. Dr.. G. W. Poole, president
of the company, has been in the city
the past week and is highly e'ated
over The big find and the most en-
eourasing outlook Of the Iroquois and

Fight Over A Mine.

Alleging fraud, conspiracy and an
attempt to force the directors of
the Winning Mining company to buy
in the stock of the concern for
s210, 900, Messrs. Adolph G. Rummel
and John Stewart are made defend
ants in damage suit in the district
court for $4,000.
1t is alleged that Rummel and Stew
art secured a lease of the Hall lode
mine and the New Discovery in Rus
Sell gulch from Isaac Hall and Rich
ard Hughes of Gilpin county and B.
F. Threewit of Denver, who allowed
them to have the use of the mine
and all the ore they produced from
September %, 1908. The lease was
made in February of the same year.
Then, it is charged, Hughes and
Threewit sold to Rummel and R.
Irene Shull their interests for $500
and then organized the Winning Min
ing company with Rummel as pres
ident, Stewart vice-president and Ber
Metz secretary.
The complaint further alleges that
Rummel voted himself 1000 shares
of stock which he valued at $780,
600 and that later he voted or gave
Irene Shull $4,000 shares of this
stock.
Later it was claimed he attempted
to sell his mining property to the di.
ming Mining company for 100000 anc
then the directors balked and brought
suit against Rummel and Stewart.
The plaintiffs ask $4,000 actual
and $25. 900 punitive damages.-Tues

Death Of an Old Pioneer.

Death again entered the ranks of
the old pioneers of Gilpin county last
Friday in Denver and claimed Hugh
A. Campbell, prominently Identified
with the upbuilding and advancement
not alone of this section Of the state
but Denver. The old gentleman was
known to practically every man, wo-
man and child in the camp. A num-
ber Of years ago he removed to
Denver where he seemed to en-
Joy better health but managed to re-
turn to the scenes Of his early
life two or three times year. He
owned several claims in Gilpin coun-
ty and it was thought some time
ago that he had parties interested
who would commence development.
His death is generally regretted by
his old time friends in Colorado. Sun.
days Denver News contained the
following brief sketch of Mr. Camp
BELLS life:
Hugh A. Campbell, who gave Cen
trail City its name, pioneer of Colo
rado, died Friday at his home, 762
South Washington street.
Campbell was born in Gettysburg,
Pa, in 1926. He moved to Ohio when
only years old. He was one of a
party which crossed the plains to
California in 1850 by way of the old
Union Pacific trail. He was engag-
ed in placer mining in Nevada for
eight years, but in 1858 he returned
to his old home by way of the 18TH
mus and New York.
After travelling in the east for a
year the gold fever was aroused in
him again By the Pixies peak rush.
He crossed the plains again. this
time settling in Central City,or Noun
tain City, as 1t was then called. He
opened miners supply house, over
which the sign Central City" first
appeared, although the name was
not adopted by the United States
government for some years.
Campbell built the Atchison and
Campbell hotels of Denver. He form
erly owned the sites OF the union
station and the American house.
Campbell returned to Ohio in
1869 and married Miss Martha w.
Whitsitt. who survives him. He also
leaves a daughter-in-law, his only
son having died less than year
ago."

Freight Yards Haunted.

During these winter nights, espec-
tally the colder ones, ghost-like forms
have been seen moving stealthily
hither and thither, in the vicinity of
the c. & S. depot, or to be more ac-
curate, among the coal cars stationed
there; and strange to say are in
variably equipped with what suspic-
iously resembles a gunny sack. This
mysterious circumstance is salts
factorily cleared if close attention
is given to the action of these weird
spectres for a few moments.
Straightaway to the car they go
and place their sacks on the ground.
They are then seen to move silent
ly about, stopping now and then, ap-
parently filling their gunnies with
loose" coal, and when full is drag
ged and sometimes actually carried
away. Thereby disproving all former
statements as to the impotency of
ghosts.
The rendezvous of these industriou
spirits is unknown. many disappear
ing down the c. & S. tracks toward
Golden, while others have been seen
to vanish in the somber darkness OF
Nevada gulch.
Opinions, many and varied, have
been offered as TO the cause Of this
nocturnal tramming Of these unfor'
tunate spirits, but the most plausi'
BILE CD that has been offered so far
was recently set forth by thought

|R0QU0|s AND L0R|LLARD
OPEN INTO BIG PAY ORE

The largest and most important
strike made in the Russell and Will
lis gulch sections this year, comes
from the Iroquois and LoriIlard prop
critics. In the latter at depth Of
22o feet a vein four feet in width
has opened into ore that assays
5.6s ounces gold and $3.50 ounces
silver to the ton, giving it a COM
mercial value of $141.25. The smeIt-
ing streak is very strong one
and is 1s inches wide, and the mill
dirt is worth about $1s. The level
is in 1870 feet and the shoot of ore
, has been drifted on a distance Of
80 feet and shows increased values
in the ore as progress is made. This
shoot is on the east side Of the
shaft. The vein pitches west, but
the shoot of ore, which is mainly on
the lorillard side, from indications
goes down and opens both east and
west.
A lift Of 100 feet has just been
PidS'uS lhC at
depth Of 800 feet. At the bottom
level will be run, the work to
commence this week. This level will
be extended east in order that the
big body of ore in the level above
can be worked from below.
Other. development under way con-
sists of level run 11o feet west
Of the shaft on the Iroquois claim
at the 22o-foot point. When the big
shoot was struck on the east side
driving on The west was abandoned
for the time being. There is large
amount of low grade ore on the
west side.
Some sample shipments have been
made from the 22o-foot level east
Of ore that was encountered just
as the shoot came in, which showed
good values. Some of this went $25
and better ton.

Attorneys Organize.

I For the first time in its history
the first judicial has a bar as
sociation, one having been organized
here last Saturday with a mem
bership embracing nearly every law
yer in the five counties in the dis
trict, says the Idaho Springs Gazette.
The organization was formed in the
district court room, and the follow
ing officers were chosen: VIM. A.
DER. of Golden, president; H. A.
Hicks, of Central City, vice-president
E. NJ. Sabin, of Idaho Springs, sec
retary and treasurer; E. L. Reg
genitter, Idaho Springs, w. c. Full
lerton, Central City, J. w. Barnes,
Golden. D. P. Howard, Hot sulphur,
Flor Ashbaugh, Littleton, trustees.
Honorary members in the new as
sociation are Hugh Butler, R. S.
Morrison, Jacob Fillius, Clinton Reed,
H. NJ. Teller, Harper Orahood, Ed.
Hurlbut. John R. Dixon. E. T. Wells,
James Belford and Harry n. Sales.
The main object of the association,
which is known as the Bar Associa-
tion of the First Judicial District, is
to promote a bond of fellowship and
fraternalism among the members of
the legal profession in the district.
An annual meeting will be held some
time in each December, and special
meetings whenever necessary. A ban
quet in Denver this week will formal
ly launch the organizations.
! AT the meeting here set of by
laws and code of ethics were adopt
ed, and committee was appointed
to draft a bill to take before the
legislature providing for the ap'
pointment of second judge in the
first district. as, in the opinion OF
the majority of the members of the
bar association, there is too much
work for one man.
