LONE PINE MINE IS SCENE OF
 ACTIVITY

After an idleness of several years, the Lone Pine mine, one and one half miles east of Huron, is again active. Major Collins of Kansas City, Mo, one of the principal stock holders, arrived a few days ago and resumed development. He has placed several miners at work, and states that the ore taken out and on the dump from previous operations, esti- mated at seventy-five tons, will be sent to the smelter for treatment. He contemplates an extensive sys- tenn of mine work, and will operate on a permanent basis.
 The enterprise is well equipped, and in addition has surface accom- modatiOns for a large force. In for mer work three shafts were sunk, the greatest depth being 200 feet. Gen eral prospecting at other points is considered favorable for the creation of a good producer.
 The property was operated orig inally by the Montana Eastern com pany.

E $.

 "'No matter what the make,' said Mir Wright, "these roadsters have a strong affinity for each other, and if it were in my power and the White Steamer was available, would be the first to raise anchor and go to the relief of any of them.'

ANNIVERSARY OF PLOT.

LONDON, Eng, Nov. 5.-The 305th anniversary of the discovery of the GunpOwder Plot was cele- brated by the youthful population of England today with the customary pranks and festivities. The day IS pOpularly known as Guy Hawkes. Day. It was on November ,, 1905, that the memorable conspiracy for springing a mine under the houses of parliament, and destroying the three estates of the realm-King, Lords and COmmOns-was discovered. The plot was projected by Robert Catesby, and several Roman Cath ollie persons of rank were leagued in the enterprise. Guy Hawkes. was discovered in the vaults under the House of Lords preparing a train of 100 barrels of powder to be fired the next day. Hawkes. and many of his cO-eonspiratOrs were executed. The vault, called Guy Hawkes. eel lar, remained in the late Houses of Parliament till 1895, when it was converted into offices.

SPECTACULAR RAID
 FRIGHTENS FRAUDS
Federal Revenues Increased Ten Million Dollars by New York Importers
 In Hope of Immunity

NEW YORK, Nov. Ten million dollars is a fair estimate of the amount that the Federal revenues are likely to be increased by the panic that has seized the big importing firms of this city, since the govern ment officials made their raid on one of the largest and wealtniest of the art importing establishments on Fifth avenue and arrested prominent mem- bers of the firm. For a long time the authorities have been certain that vats frauds have been practiced upon the Customs by the undervalua
 tion of imported merchandise and that some of the importers with the largest businesses and the most re- spectable regulations were implicated in these frauds. For several months past rumors have been flying about the wholesale district of the city that the government was collecting evi- dence both here and abroad against a number of firms. This has led to a great uneasiness among importing firms who were willing to profit by this form of graft as long as there seemed little danger of detection, but who would rather sacrifice millions than to have their business standing

 MT. and Mrs. w. D. Bissell, the latter niece of the late ex-Governor WOlfley, arrived in the city yester- day from Los Angeles, and left for the Climax mines on the Hassayampa. Mrs Bissell is one of the heirs of MT. Wolfley, who was one of the original owners and later a heavy stOckholder in this mining entes- prise. The visitors will remain in- definitely in this section, residing at the camp.

smirehed by exposure. The policy of the Federal authorities in giving liberal rewards to informers has in- creased this uneasiness since it was practically impossible to carry on these frauds without the knowledge of certain employees, and a clerk who knew that a fortune of $50,000 or $1OO,O0O might be his for a mere tip to the Federal officials, naturally would be tempted to grasp such a rich prize. When the spectacular blow of the Fifth Avenue raid fell the question, "Who next''' natur- ally presented itself to the import CTS with guilty conseiences and threw them into blue funk. The result has been a grand rush to get aboard the immunity wagon and Collector Loeb has been kept busy for the past ten days listening to comics sions, promises of restitution and pledges to be good. The interviews nave been carefully guarded but some of the facts have leaked out. Some of these offers may be ac- cepted, but the present disposition of the government authorities is to make "horrible examples" of a few more big firms for the moral effect it will be likely to have.

FIRE Is CONQUEREDBY
 TRA|NMEN
From Tuesdays Daily)

What might have proved a heavy loss in wood at Prairie, on the $. F., P. & P. railroad, near Ash Fork, was averted Saturday night by the prompt and effective work of Conductor Fur ner of the water run from Del Rio. An estimated amount of over $2,500 in cedar wood was at the mercy of the flames, when MT. Turner's train pulled into the place. The wood is the property of William Nelson of this city. The fire was under good headway, and with the utilizing of the water from the train the wood was saved The loss, however, will reach close to $600.
 The origin of the fire was due to tramps who were passing through and that revenge was the motive appears conclusive. The men were refused admittanee to the house, and after being driven away, returned and ignited the large pile.
 MT. Nelson feels grateful for the splendid work done by MT. Turner and his crew.
