 Most of the foreign industrial companies have also been put out oi business. especially those engag- ed in mining, as the railroads have been destroyed in almost every sec tion, either by the federal or rebel forces. At FresnilIo affairs have been in such a disturbed condition that it was found impossible to worb The mines of the company by which 1 was employed. On account of the destruction of the railroad between FresniIIo and Zacetacas We had to transport our machinery and supple from the latter place, 9 distance Of 56 miles. on the backs of burros.
 On Nov. lst. a force Of 2,OOO rebels were attacked by the feder- als at Fresuillo and there were two days of continuous fighting. The rebels, however, succeeded in holding the town and later moved off in the direction of Zacnetacas, to which point the federals had already retreatel as it was expected, that that point would next be attacked.

\ BIG DEbL
 C0NSUMMAIED

One of the largest mining deals which nave ever been made in that district was consummated when big mining men, represented by James Murphy, of Seward, took over the entire holdings of the Cache Creek Mining Company in the Cache creek mining district. The property takes in uearly all of Cache Creek and the consideration, on terms, is said to be $15O,O0O.
 Mir. Murray and James McAliis- ter. the former a dredger man of large experience and the latter a successful mining man formerly of Nome, passed the summer season, with a force of miners, making an extensive test of the ground. The tests proved more than satisfactory, disclosing values that can success fuTy be recovered by the use of dr dgers.
 It is the plan of tn new control to install a big dredge next season.
 The Cache Creek Mining Com pany has expended some $500,00O on the property. An effort was made to work it by the hydraulic method, but the ground proved too flat for this proce5s.-COrdOva Al askau.

CUTLER TALKS TO
A DULUTH SCRIBE

Duluth, Mimi, March 20.-Charles
Cutler, Chicago's gigantic wrestler
and contender for the worlds heavy
weight title, and his manager, Ed.
Kane, blew into Duluth Wednesday
morning from North Dakota, where
they nave been giving exhibitions, and
are spending the day here visiting old
friends and getting acquainted.
Mr.. Kane's last visit to Duluth was
as for Willie Hoppe, the bill
lard wizard, and who vas here about
four years ago giving exhibitions.
Since then Mr.. Kane has invaded the
managerial end Of the wrestling game
and believes that he has picked the
best of them all in Cutler.
Cutler, eve a dangerous man, is
at the zenith of his career this year.
For several years he has been m
thing Of a trial horse, so to speak,
out that day seems to be past. A few
years ago his knee was badly injured
in a bout with Henry Ordemann Of
Minneapolis, and until this year he
has been unable to properly train.
Not SO now, however. His bouts this
winter have shown him to be in the
best form that he has ever enjoyed.
A short time ago F~ristensky, q gil
ant Bohemian, came over here n
in ONE elimination matches in the
east made some of the stars look
foolish, they were 80 easy for him.
He was touted as a wonder n when
he was matched with Cutler every
body expected q dandy old struggle
with ultimate victory for the Be. But
Charles ruled otherwise. He made
such short work Of Fristensky that
the sporting public gasped about it
for weeks. The European terror was

about as fast as he could get up. All
Of his matches this year show him
to have everything as the saying
is in the mat game, and his form
is superb. ~

Wolgast made known his retirement,

The following account of the Ameri-
can game of baseball played between
the White Sox and Giants before the
king, as published n The London
Daily Mail, will strike the American
fan as decidedly funny. One OF the
best things is the description Of SCOTS
pitching and another the "huge hit"
made by. Lobert.
The story was headed "Royal Base
ball-American Teams Play Before the
King-His Majesty's Message to the
Players" .
"A great game" was the general
verdict On Thursday on the baseball
witnessed by the king and 10000 spec
tators. The teams were the Giants
from New York and the White Sox of
Chicago, picked opponents Of the ma
tional game of the United States.
The king after the match sent 81 spe-
cial message to the owners and man
ayers of the teams at the Hotel Cecil
expressing his appreciation Of n Skill
Of the players and the fascination of
the game. His majesty stated that he
had spent q highly interesting and en-
tertaining afternoon.
The match resulted in a victory for
the White SoX with S runs to q. Eng
lish spectators unfamiliar with the
game were chiefly impressed by the
1larVelOuS HSiullS "a tAS
players.

"Some climax cried the Americans
at the Chelsea football ground on
Thursday when the Giants of New
York and the White Sox of. Chicago
lined up before the king and cheered
his majesty right heartily.
Indeed it was a great climax. THESE
the w most powerful baseball teams
in the United States, were concluding
their worlds tour, and the king, "a
keen judge of all sports" as Lord Des-
borough said on the previous day, had
decided to honor the game with his
box the 20, 900 spectators rose and
cheered vociferously.
The cheers were taken up again
, with a strong American accent when
Mr.. Comiskey, the millionaire owner
of the White Sox, and Mr.. McGraw
and Mr.. Callahan, managers of the
two teams, were introduced to his
majesty. The cheers were even loud
er when the king, receiving a baseball
from the American ambassador, hand
ed it to Mr.. McGraw, who threw it gu
to the. umpire, and so opened the game
formally as President Wilson had done
at washington last April.
