ering went on as before.


Some of the Richmond people were
afraid lest the Federals on entering
would find the stores Of liquor and,
becoming intoxicated, would add ra-
pine to the horrors of pillage. They
therefore went about opening the
liquor stores dragging out the barrels
and knocking in their heads, pour
the contents into the gutter, which
in places ran with whiskey an inch
deep or more. The soldiers dipped
it up in their little tin cups as they
marched along and drank it, but they
were not allowed to halt until safely
over the bridge and into Manchester.
When the great conflagration broke
out this liquor caught fire and doubt
less aided to spread the flames. A
sloOp on fire in the river drifted
against the covered portion of the
bridge nearest the city and set that
on fire also. The Confederate treasury
was entered by many and haversacks
full Of the valuless bills were taken.
One man offered me a handful of
hundred dollar bills. I looked at one
and saw it was unsigned. He was
much disgusted by the discovery and
heaved the whole wad into the river.
The Confederate Arsenal was set on
fire or caught, and the bursting Of
shells sounded like the roar Of a
heavy engagement.
We halted near the bridge until
the rear guard passed, when we also
moved on and halted in the quiet
streets of Manchester. From that
point the view Of Richmond was ter
rible indeed. The whole city seemed
to be doomed to destruction. The
sun rose upon a dense black cloud
of smoke hanging over the Capital Of
the Confederacy, while the roar Of
flames was audible miles away. A
flour mill, of seven or eight stories in
height, near the river, was also fired.
and the last sight We had of any OBJ
Ject in the stricken city was that Of
this mill as the flames licked the
skies from its top story. To enheart-
en- the soldiers the bands were order
ed to play, and so to lively music we
set out on the retreat. In Manchester

TUSCON. March 1S.-Endeavors
are being made now in the east to

REASONS FOR FEDERAL SUIT
AGAINST ANACONDA SHELTER

WASHINGTON, ID. c.. March Is
Satisfied that the present methods
OF operating its smelters by the Ana
conda Copper Mining company are
not only destructive of the surround
ing natural forests but unnecessary,
Attorney General Wickersham today
caused a bill in equity to be filed
at Helena, Montana, against the
company.
The bill asks for a permanent in
junction to compel the company to
operate its plant at Anaconda in
such manner as to end the destruc-
ton
The company has resisted the de
mand OF the government that the
methods of smelling be changed. and
among other contentious has repre-
scented that it would cost millions
to make the alterations. The at
torney general. however, announces
that the suit viii be pressed yigor-
ously. unless, as he hopes, the COM
pany viii cooperate with the gov
eminent to bring about a termina-
ton of the existing conditions.
At the department of justice the
statement is made that the suit was
not filed until every possible friendly
means were exhausted.
Efforts to secure a cessation of
the injuries from the smelters were
under way some time before the
close OF President Roosevelt's ad-
and the mining COM
panies were then notified that suits
would be brought unless definite &C
ton we're taken by the smelters TO
stop the wholesale destruction Of
the forests by the distribution of
sulphuric and arsenic fumes over a
wide area. Instead OF attempting
10 remedy the situation. the compan-

believed will be necessary in a very
few months. The vein on the Big
Butte is about four feet in depth, and
a desirable characteristic of the yield
Is that IL is free milling. and car
ries additional values in silver. Am
PIE finances are at the disposal of the
company. and il is the intention to
keep the enterprise going.
Oak Creek. where this property is
located. has been the source of placer
mining operations for over a third Of
a century. and thousands of dollars
are to its credit in the flow of the
yellow dust. Several quartz veins car
rying gold values are located along
its banks, and where the Big Butte
is located the surface indications war
rant the investment that is to be
made.
c. f. Brownell. a capitalist of Min
neapolis, Mimi. was at the property
for several days, investigating the
possibilities of the enterprise, and is
said to be more than pleased at what
is in evidence with the limited exploit
tation shown. He was assisted by
Mckinley. the general manager of the
company, who has been identified
with the project from the beginning.
The latter viii direct the future of the
company. and feels enthusiastic over
the outcome of the undertaking

les. it is declared, represented 20
Mr.. Roosevelt that they could oper-
ate their plants in no other manner
than that then in vogue.
President Roosevelt ordered a full
investigation and took a personal in
terest in the hearings. The claims
advanced by the Anaconda company
under which they sought to avoid
being sued it is declared. were not
new but were identical with those
made in two other suits under which
similar injuries were stopped; one
case being by the government
against the Mountain Copper com
pany in California. and the other by
the state of Georgia against the
Ducktown. Tenn. company.
In leach of these cases it was
claimed adverse action would mean
the closing OF mines and smelters
and the discharge of thousands OF
men. Injunctions. however. were
granted in both instances but Meth
er mines nor smelters We're closed.
Instead. the companies converted the
harmful fumes into a valuable pro
duct and many additional men were
given work
On behalf of the Montana smell
tiers the contention was made that
they could not convert the fumes
into acid. as had been done in Cali
fornia and Tennessee. because Of
their wholly different character.
A full investigation of this claim
BY leading experts has satisfied the
government of the feasibility Of con-
verting the fumes at Anaconda into
acid and that there are large phos-
phate deposits near that may be
used with acid in the manufacture
Of fertilizer.
