upon us for protection in the mean time, as the money which they fur nish to move our cotton crop is of great value to this country.
 For the protection of our own people and the preservation of our credit in foreign trade I urge upon congress the immediate enactment of a law under which one who in good faith ad- vances money or credit upon bill of lading issued by common carrier upon an interstate or foreign shipment can hold the carrier liable for the value of the goods described in the bill at the valuation specified in the bill. at least to the extent of the ad- vances made in reliance upon it.
 Such liability exists under the laws of many of the states. I see no ob- tection to permitting two classes of bills of lading to be issued: Q) Those under which a carrier shall be abso- lutelv liable. as above suggested. and (2l those with respect to which the carrier shall assume no liability except for the goods actually delivered to the agent issuing the bill. The carrier might be permitted to make small separate specific charge in addition to the rate of transportation for such guaranteed bill as an insur- ance premium against loss from the added risk. thus removing the princi pal objection which I understand is made by the railroad companies to the imposition of the liability suggested viz, that the ordinary transportation rate would not compensate them for the liability assumed by the absolute guaranty of the accuracy of the bills of lading.
 I further recommend that punish ment of fine and Imprisonment be in,

is in charge of Mr.. j. j. Hoban, one
of the best miners in the district.
The property is in no sense a pros
pect with great uncertainty of char
acter. They are old mines which have
been worked extensively in past
years and are now being worked sue
cessfully by leasers in adit and shaft
workings at surface. The product is
the characteristic Gilpin county sui
phides, rich in gold and ordinarily
found in large and continuous depos-
its. All indications are that the ore
body opened in the tunnel and that
which has been mined at surface are
the same shoot and that continuous
ore will be found through the 1,32S
feet between the two.
The lode is cut in the tunnel at
1873 feet from the portal of the tun-
mel and the vertical depth is deter
mined by careful surveys to be 1,32S
feet. The reports of engineers and Of
experts of recognized authority sus-
tain Mr.. Wares estimates of the
worth of the property and of the
availability of liberal profits from his
plans of operation. The enterprise
looks like one of the big things
which have been inspired by the big
