INQUIRY IS HALTED,
Controller Bay Investigation Is
Temporarily Suspended.

Both Democrats and Republicans Ex.
press the Belief That Miss w. F..
Abbott, the Newspaper Woman,
Who Claims to Have Seen the "DicN
to Dick" Letter, Will Never Be Put
on the Stand to Tell Her Story un'
der Oath.
Washington, July 25.-The Control
ler bay investigation is at an end for
the present and the threatened sensa-
tion growing out of the mysterious
Dick to Dick letter will not be
sprung for months if at all. Indeed
there are good many men around
the Capitol, both Democrats and Re-
publicans, who express the belief that
Miss M. F. Abbott, the newspaper
women, who claims to have seen the
"Dick to Dick" letter In the files OF
the interior department, will never be
put on the stand to tell her story un-
der oath.
At the room of the house commit
tee on expenditures in the interior de-
partment, which has been conducting
the Controller bay inquiry, it was said
yesterday that TO important witnesses
would be called before the middle OF
October and possibly not until later.
Then the statement was made that
the investigation will he resumed with
all it's pristine vigor, but with the
Controller bay proposition as only one
feature of the general probe into
Alaskan affairs.
Brown and Ryan to Testify.
Asmun Brown, who was private sec
retary to former Secretary of the In
terror Ballinger, and who, Miss Abbott
says, showed her the Dick 10 Dick
letter, and Richard S. Ryan, promoter
of the Controller Bay railroad and re-
puted agent of the Guggenheims, have
been in Washington for days waiting
the call of the committee and Brown
and Ryan have been particularly in
sistent that they be called and given
a chance to refute Miss Abbott's state
ments.
They have been afforded no chance
up to date and by the committees de-
cision to drop the inquiry for the pres
ent will not have an opportunity to be
heard until fall, if then.
Chairman Graham said today that
when the committee met in the fall
to continue its inquiry into all the al
fairs of Alaska that Louis d. Brandeis
of Boston would be in charge.

Another Giant Dredging.

The Yuba Consolidated Gold
fields Co. is building an enormous
gold boat at Hammonton, CAL,
in the Yuba river dredging dis
trict. The hull is 240 ft. long
and has a displacement of about
1000 tons. 1t has a capacity of
300, 900 Gu. yds. per month, and
will be able to dig to a depth ex-
ceeding 60 TT. below water level.
The dredge will cost about $780,
900 and will probably be the
most powerful of it's class in the
world. 1t will be No. 13 of the
Yuba Consolidated fleet. The
Yuba Consolidated Dredging Co.
for years has been the greatest
gold-producing concern in Cali
fornia, it's annual yield being es-
timated at about $3,000,000.

sented to him, that his trip was
a revelation to him in that it dis
closed a vast mining wealth
which he had no idea existed in
Central Idaho so close to a center
like Grangeville, with all needed
transportation available, the full
possibilities of which it will re-
quire years to develop and gen.
erations to exhaust. A good
wagon road covering the short
days ride from the mines to the
county seat would mean hundreds
of thousands of dollars to both
mines and town within a very
brief period. While not stating
it in so many words, there is
every reason for believing that
Mr.. Enloe's company will in the
very near future establish hy-
dro-electric power plant for the
operation of the mines of the Ten
Mile district, which it is believed
will eventually be extended to
all the surrounding section with
in available distance. This will
mean more in the development
of the mines of that section than
can be conceived at this time, and
may mean in time an electric
transportation line for the mil
lions of wealth of that vast
country"

LONE YELLOW
PINE BONDED
Famous Property to New
York People.

1t is reported on good authori-
ty that Harmon and Morrow have
bonded the Lone Yellow Pine
group of claims, to New York
parties, through L. ]. Browning.
For the past two weeks Mr..
Browning has been on the ground
making an examination and sam
pling the property.
Last week he bought a piece
of placer ground from Joe Brown
that lies between the claims and
the river. This will not only
give them a direct outlet to the
river, but will afford a good mill
site as we'll.
Extensive development work
will be started as soon as the
preliminaries are completed.

has finished the construction of
a good substantial ore bin, and
has everything in good shape for
work.
At the face of the tunnel the
ore is widening at the bottom,
and the gauge seems to be max

quartz that pan well, and are of
the same grade of ore as the
main body. A sample taken

From the Mining and Scientific Press.
Assessment work must be done
on all unpatented mineral land in
the United States; none is ex-

year. If several thousand dollars
worth of work be done this year
it can not be applied on next
years assessment.
Monazite is principally obtain
ed from Brazil and the United
States, which supply the worlds
demand, although the greater
part of the output of the United
States is used in this country.
For many years North Carolina
and South Carolina have furnish
ed this supply, but important de-
posits have been lately discover
ed at several places in Idaho.
Accidents in mines are more
common on night than day shifts
and at one large mine where
careful records have been kept,
50 per cent Of the accidents have
happened in the first few days

Mining claims, in common with
all patents for lands entered
after August 81. 1890, or entries
or claims validated by the Act of
that date, are subjected to res
ervation for "a right of way
thereon for bitches or canals
constructed by the authority of

ever, the United States has not
delegated this authority to the
individual States and the right of
eminent domain does not obtain
against the government, a claim
held by possessory title is not
subject to claims for right of
way under rights granted by a
state. The recent decisions of
the United States supreme court
make it clear that in all these
matters the rights of the United
States are supreme. After pat
ent is passed the land becomes

Recent Strike Very I'M
portant.
FIFTEEN FEET ASSAYING $50
Management Highly Elated
Over Find.

A. H. Mcknight. superinten-
dent of the Majestic Mining COM
pany, at Dixie, has just received
returns from samples sent to M.
F. Tytler. of Elk City, to be
tested, that is the most import
ant news in Dixie for sometime.
The samples were taken from
tunnel No. 3, which is in $50 it,,
are from the last Is ft. in the
face. The ore, which is a black
greenish formation, was wholly
unfamiliar to the miners, and
was thrown over the dump.
1t attracted Mr.. Meningitis
attention and he Immediately
took a sample, the returns of
which he has just received gave
$49.60 in gold; and as to the
classification of the rock Mr..
Tytler says:
"The rock you sent for CLASH
fication is an igneous rock, show
ing metamorphism and probably
is near or on contact of an in
trusive dyke. The red mineral
is garnetiferous rock. The green
ish mineral is epidote. The black
crystals are tourmalines. The
evidence of these different min
erals confirm it's metamorphic
origion.
This strike, which is in the big
dyke, puts this property on a
new basis. 1t has always been
held to be a large, low-grade,
proposition, and no one ever
looked for ore of this character.
The company have plans for a
mill this summer, and the find
ing of this shoot of ore, will GER
tainly place them in a position to
produce plenty of the yellow
metal.
The holdings of the company
now consist of 81 claims
quartz and / placer, the placer
being on Salmon river for power
site.
The main property consists of
18 claims, with a chain of 13
claims running to and along the
Salmon river for water, mill and
tunnel sites.
The development work now
consists of the Vidette tunnel,
21O it,, and the main working
tunnels Nos. 2 and 3. These are
opposite each other on Gold
creek. No. 2 running in a north
erly direction and No. 8 in a
southerly direction, both being
in the dixie. No. 2 tunnel is now
in 180 it., and No. 3, the scene
of the recent strike, $50 ft.
The property is equipped with
good air compressor, drills, saw
mill and every thing tending to
economic mining.

GOOD ORE In THE ANACONDA
Electric Power Plant for the
District.

Things are moving now in the
Ten Mile district, and this sum-
mer promises to see considerable
activity.
The wagon road will be con-
tinued from the river up to the
Buckhornj mine, so that machi-
merry can be taken in.
The Buckhorn mine will install
a Chilian mill of the Hallidie
type, as soon as the road is COM
pleted. In the meantime, the
company will keep up develop
ment work. The company may
locate the mill with a view of
doing custom work, which would
be a great benefit to that camp,
as there are hundreds of tons of
high grade ore, on the dumps
and in sight, that would yield
handsome profit to the owners,
could it be treated in the camp,
A party of stockholders, with
an expert, of Portland, in COM
pany with Mr.. Hammer, have
been at the Wonder the past
week, making an examination.
There has been a large amount
of work done on this property
the past year, and it is said to be

At the Anaconda.
The lessees at the Anaconda
are now taking out ore, and will
start the mill in a few days.
They have opened ore in three
places, and will have no trouble
in keeping the mill running. The
face of the drift in the bottom of
the shaft is now in the highest
grade of ore ever found on this
property.

THE ALABAMA
COON GROUP
Property Showing Up Well
with Development,

Jack Stone, one Of the owners
of the Alabama group of claims,
came down from his camp last
week, after putting in the winter
developing the property.
This group of claims is on what
is known as the Erickson reef,
and is a very promising prospect,
as it is an enormous, low-grade
proposition. The development
work consists of two tunnels,
one in 100 ft. and another 240 #.
In the latter tunnel there is a
cross-cut, at the face, in Is ft.
of ore. 1t is the intention to
drive this tunnel so ft. further,
to point under a shallow shaft,
where values ranging from 1886
to Sc and 81 were obtained.
