that the people should not worry

EMPLOYEES CAUSE
MINE EXPLOSION

Primero Colo, Feb. 1.-Yesterday's
disaster In the main mine of the Col
orado Fuel and Iron company, which
claimed the lives of at least seventy
one men, was caused by an explosion
of fire damp. the same as that which,
according to survivor OF the catas-
trophe on January %. 1907. in the
same mine in which "a lives wore
lost. The same authority holds that
the explosion was caused by the igni-
ton OF gas from n flame originated
probably through the carelessness OF
some miner in direct violation OF mine
rules. either through the crimping OF
q cap for q fuse, or the lighting of a
match surreptitiously carried into the
workings.
Officials refuse to give out any
statement regarding the probable
cause. claiming that 1t cannot be de-
termined until the workings have been
cleared and thorough investigation
made. However. they admit that
some violion of mine rules will be
found TO be responsible. The Primero

WASHINGTON IS DESERTED.
Officials Leaving Today for Homes
So They May Vote.

Washington, ID. c., Nov Trains
leaving Washington today carried
hundreds of officials and Government
clerks who will tomorrow vote at their
respective homes. The departments
have been emptying themselves of
voters for several days and by noon
today the forces in all the big Govern
ment buildings were reduced to a
rather low ebb. The Government SER
vice, however, is not allowed to suf-
fer by this exodus of voters. as the de-
partment heads always prepare for the
lack of workers at election time by
getting the routine work well in hand
and i'm such condition that a reduced
number of employees can handle it.
President Taft leaves tonight for
Cincinnati where he will cast his ball
lot tomorrow. All of the cabinet Off
GERS are following the example of their
chief in returning TO their respective
homes to vote. Some of the depart
ment heads and other officials who
come from the same States have ar
ranged to save the expense and trouble
of going home by pairing with men of
opposite party. This plan has been
steadily increasing in favor since free
railroad transportation was abolished
several years ago.

The announcement about noon of a
reduction for October of $500, 900
pounds in the surplus stock of cop
per was somewhat disappointing al
though the whole market was appa-
rently keyed up for strength and the
report caused only a ripple. Stocks
held rather firm all day despite the
copper report and tomorrow's uncer-
tain election results. A New York de-
mocratic victory we believe will be
the signal for higher prices and it will
put quietus on the only living ex-
president. All underlying factors fa-
vor higher prices. Copper shares

tion given to Calumet & Arizona

mand. We look for higher prices

GOOD SHOWING
AT MICHIGAN
OGlMA is SAID TO BE MOST
PROMISING LODE ENcouNT-
Erred THUS FAR AT THE
PROPERTY.

The Michigan the property with up
wards of 5000 acres OF mlaeral lanos
so extensive an area that il would
take years TO thoroughly examine ano
explore 1t, even by drilling, has big
possibilities, says the Ontonagon Her
aid. At the Bee shaft. about 1S0e feet
of opening has been done $50 feet on
the adit level where some good cop
per ground was encountered, and
nearly 1000 feet on the second level,
which is $50 feet below the adit level;
and appearances in the bottom OPEN
ings are very much better than in the
level above indicating an improve
ment with depth. But on the whole,
the openings did not disclose COM
mercial quality of lode. Here all open
ing work has been discontinued, the
management doing some exploratory
work between the levels, following the
favorable ground TO see what IL may
lead to. and in doing this, considera-
Bile very rich rock is being brought TO
surface and put in stockpile The rock
shows some of the light nally copper
but for the most part is well charged
with a wire and shot copper-and with
enough OF such rock the Michigan
would take rank among the bonanza
mines of the district.
The work being done. which may
lead to results; TO something sub
stantial is the drilling by which ii is
intended TO make a cross-section Of
the property lying between the Butler
lode and the eastern sandstone, dis
tance Of over 5000 feet. Already suffi-
cient holes have been put down 10
complete the work for a distance OF
about 5000 feet from the Butler, and
three or four more holes viii be re-
uuired To finish the cross section. The
work will continue right along. as the
pipes are laid the entire distance,
through which the water for drilling
will be furnished. and the water is
supplied from a dam, higher up. by
gravity, thus avoiding the expense of
pumping etc, an important item in
the prosecution of the work.
The most promising lode thus far
encountered is the Ogima, from which
three cores have been taken, and all
showing a formation II to Is feet wide
with copper uniformly distributed
through them. The formation is a
chocolate amygdaloid with calcite and
quartz and in all three holes the top
of the formation was a soft epidote
carrying copper, and remainder Of vein
We'll charged with heavy copper. This
lode will likely receive attention later
on. The cross section completed viii
give the management much valuable |
data. Just what may be done in the
future, as 10 other portions Of this
company's immense mineral territory,
has not been decided upon but il is
likely the drill will be used for a long
time i'm ascertaining the prospective
value of lodes traversing the compa-
ny's lands.
