The Commission Men Go into Decorative Business. A Solemn Protest Against the Mud—Rare Mottoos and Devises. Mayor Harrison had 2 boom yesterday—a mud boom. He kad it all to himeelf, too, and if he does not feel flattered it is no fault of those who were instrumental in inaugurating it and bring- ing it to a successful issue. J Yesterday the people who do business on South Water street commenced a cleaning-up on theirown hook. The worff was started at La Salle street, and east to State, where it stopped. As early as 10 o'clock the work began. Men with big shovels, hoes, and picks began to pegaway at the six inches of mud. Soona pyramid arose—and euch a pyramid! It was topped off with decayed animal matter, and was at once dedicated to Carter H. Harrison and the Democratic Administration. There soon arose piles and piles of mud, tapered off with decayed birds, and others with horse manure, all gathered from the street which has so long been neglected. At 4 o'clock, as if by a concerted movement, there appeared on these piles mottoes, versicles, epigrams, etc., they being painted on boards and put in place almost simultaneously. The sight was grotesque in the extreme. The street was filled with crowds of people, who came to sec the show. Such laugh- ter Was never heard before at Democratic ex- pense. Between Dearborn and &| ETE OCbably State streets Hn THE FUNNIEST FEATURES. 2 immense pile of mud, crowned with decay- ing vegetables and horse manure, bore the fol- lowing touching epitaph: “ Mayor Harrison dead ee eee ere “een ae the grass; do not e flowers.” en there were ot toes like these: po otis mete “May the mud be thin When we vote again.” f flere Lies th Eagle"; “ Harrison's Mound"; “ Root fo ce Die"; “ The Hog Died, He Couldn't Root and Live. The Filth Was'Too ue for Him": “Who Would “Engle Feathers under Here Not Vote for Carter Harrison? Erected A. D. 1880." ‘Tivo joint piles of mud bore the legend Ed Reel eonigentie There here “Harrison's found,” wi! e_ motto upon “Our Next Governor, Carter Harrison. ‘ Perhaps as witty a thing was ‘Harrison's Grave.” It was a pile of mud near State street, shaped to represent n grave. At the head was a cabbage, topped by an old felt hat. The centro was garnished with sweet potaces and radishes, —the tlowers over the grave, At the foot was a large beet raised on a stick, and insorted in it a board, with the word “ Dead" on it. Thon there was an old pair of boots left sticking out of the mud, and the caricature was complete. The epitaph over it read: * The last of our best Mayor; weep.” Then there was also on admon- ition to “Carter to read and reflect.” ‘Our little wish Harrison grant us—to see that our streets are kept clean.” “Carter wants It 80,” embellished a very odoriferous pile. “ The City- Hall” was represented by a pile of artistically- shaped mud, crowned by 8 stinking codfish, and duly placarded on a long pole. This was in front of G. W. Webster's place. Mr. Webster is a wholesale 'quor-dealer, and aDemocrat. He couldn't stand this onslaught on his friend Car- ter, and he STARTED TO TEAR DOWN “CITY-HALL.” His action caused merriment and derision. The old man became excited and a crowd collected. They hooted and yelled. Every time Webster took down a mottotwo of them rose in its place, and then the old man was mad—mad as a March hare. He-pranced and pranced around, and finally acknowledged himself beaten ur treating the crowd. While he amused himself, the crowd would shout “ He's drun! “that's right, stick up fora whisky Mayor.” “Shut bim upand bury im."” ‘About this time a rather talkative youth, with a shadow of a mustache on his upper lip, which he'was carefully nursing. hove in sight, envel- oped ina blue necktie, which threw a shadow over his entire exterior, and clad in very light clothes and a high tile. ‘This young man began to fight for Carter verbally, and threatened to clean out South Water strect, and the whole of Chicago if necessary. His gab brougnt him into sudden unpopularity, and he vanished from sight amid Jeers, yells, and cat-calls, Some one une that he be covered up in the mud, but his form had vanished. Other incidents occurred of a trifling charac- ter. Mr. Webster once more got angry, and began taking down the signs from the mud- piles, ‘but he found the work too bard, and final- desisted amid jeers and shouts, and a vote tt he was a busybody by tho crowd. There were mottocs such as these: “Poll-Tax: Paid.” “Hurrah for Mayor Harrison.” “The Engle Must Be Protected.” “Our Next Governor— ‘All Eagie.” “Tho Old Way Is the Best.” “Members of thé Common_Council Please R move This Pile within the Next Four Month: “Cholera, Measles, Vomiting, Quickstep,’ appropriately headed a fearfully filthy pile. Then there were “No More ‘Appropriations Necessary.” _‘* Retrench.”” * More Scrip, Carter.” ‘Last, but, Not Least, Our Carter.” “Gents: If that Is Your Game, I ‘Will Run Again. Engle Harrison.” “The Best Chicago Our Mayor Ever Had.” ‘Results of Democratic Mayor." ‘In Memory of C. H. Har- rison.” ‘Peace to Carter's Ashes.” “Carter Is Not Dead, but Sleepeth; Our Mayor Rests in Peace.” “Carter H., Born in 1878, Died in 1880: DUST TO DUST." “Hurrah for Harrison and the City Council!” ‘Get your City-Scrip at My Office To-Ni; ht. Carter.” “Our Carter Forever.” “Every Man raws His Own Dirt. Mayor Harrison. “We Will Send Harrison to the Pound for His Good Deeds.” “A Rose by Any Other Name Would Smell Just as Sweet.” ‘A mammoth pile, pyramid-shaped, was headed with “ Headquarters of the Common Council of the Clty of Chicago.” Then again there was “The Eagle's Nest,” * Who Pays for This?” ** Ac- cidents Will, Happen Now and Then; Here Lies an Wonest Comniission Man.” At the corner of Clark and Water streets was something which attracted a tdeal of attention. It wasan exquisitly filthy pile of mud in the shape of a Ona boardon top of it was impaled an 6ld and odorous gander, as touch as an ordinary Democrat's conscience on election-day. The head was gone and the feathers plucked off. Where once wus the tail thcre were placed a few straggling turkey feathers, and a duck’s head tied with a string adorned the neck. This labeled: woe Eagle. C.H.H.” Underneath were the Oras Not Always Thus.” “ No Election For Mayor This Spring.” ‘The above included about all the mottoes ex- hibited, However, after Webster's exbibition, “The City-Hali” was adorned with a banner pearing this inscription: ‘Webster for Mayor Next Term,” but this did not appease his wrath. here is a moral in this exhibition, which may have some effect. The streets of Chi are & disgrace to a civilized community, and they can- not be cleaned too soon to please the people. —<————$—$_ JOHN GARRITY. An Attempt to Get Him Out on What Seems Very Shaky Ball. Hugh Garrity, the Penitentiary graduate and thug, who {s wanted on three serious charges, has so far succeeded in evading the Sheriff's Deputies, although some of his friends have signified that Hugh {s only trying to get bail, and will give himself up just as soon a8 he can procure it.

At Geneva the bondsmen accepted were old man Garrity, father of the sweet-scented pair, Martin Joyce, and Mike Corcoran. ‘The person who yesterday marched into the oftice of the Clerk of the Criminal Court and made affidavit that he was possessed of certain property is one BRYAN O'NEILL, A BRICKLAYER, residing at 240 Goethe street. O'Neill swore that he was the owner of Lot 6in Block 6 of Stone's Subdivision of Astor's Addition, being No. 240 Goethe street, which property was worth $3,500 and incumbered for $250 only, leaving bim worth $3,260. The Court was not in session and no other bondsman was presented, so O'Neill went away, leaving the bond with the Clerk. ‘The latter has it yet, and may be this is not the end. ‘reporter of THE TRIBUNE who felt skeptical atout bonds in general, and bonds designed to release the Garritys from captivity in particu- lar, visited the Recorder's office yesterday after- noon 80!

COLORADO SILVER-MINES. A New Chicago Mining Company. So many of our Chicago patrons huve becn engaged in silver-mining in the region of Lead- ville, in the State of Colorado. with such good success during the past yenr, that we take pleas- ure in bringing tothe notice of the public the formation of “The Chicago and Scott Gulch Gold and Silver Miaing Company,” a corporation just organized by some of our enterprising business-men. The Company has two lodes or claims on the east slope of Hoosier Puss, in what is known as Scott Gulch, three miles north of Alma, in Park County, Colorado. ‘Thoy embrace some twenty acres of land, with pea: of good timber growing uponit. The ore is jead-carbonate lying in agompact vein som ett over five fect in thickness, cropping out for feeton the side of the Gulch, about one-halt mile below the timber-line, and running hori- zoutally into the mountain side. Mr. Stephens, the well-known geologist and ractical miner, well known as the partner of Mr, L. Z. Leiter in his Leadville mines, gives bis opinion that the camp where this Company’s mines are located will develop the richest car- Honate silver minés in the whole State of Colo- 0. ‘Alma is au old mining town on the Platte River at the foot of Mount Lincoln, accessible at all seasons of the year, being. on this side of the snowy range of the Rocky Mountains. Sup- plies can be bad here of-all kinds, and at about the game pree as in Chicago. The mines are considered valuable by reason of theirfuvorable location, as work cxn be on the full width of the vein 600 feet, and, us no shifts are necded, the expense and delay: of sinking and hoisting are dipensed with. A good rond is near at hand, and it is but two miles to Dudley down the Gulch, where thore is @ very extensive smelting furnace, anda mile ‘beyond ig Alma, where there are five furnaces, and others in process of building. : ‘Tho ore at present working is fully as good andof the samo quality as was the ore of the Leadville mines, which fs on the same carbonate belt, and but cight miles west uf these mines. It is the intention wm have the interest of all stockholders fully protected, the stock is all fully paid and non-assessable, and no Jiability can be imposed on any_stockholder, There are no salaried officers, and the Superintendent is one of the Company. From the character of the men who are in- terested, there cannot be any doubt but what the affairs will be honestly and economically conducted. In addition to the investment in the mines, the Company has $1,000to commence on, and also hasu capital stock set apart for working capital amounting to 16,000 shares, 4,000 shares of which will be sold at once. The mine, from present indications, will no doubt pay a handsome per- centage in addition to paying the working ex- penses from the start. ‘The officers are Mr. C. A. Orvis, member of the Board of Trade, President; D. W. Pearch, of Camppell & Pearch, commission ‘merchants, VicerPresident; Frank Scales, Secretary and Treasurer; Jobn L. North, Superintendent. The Board of Directors includes these ntlemen, with Albert Dow. superintendent and raanager of the Chicago White Lead & Oil Works; Thomas ‘Armour and A. Osgood, of the firm of Miller, ‘Armour & Osgood, meat commission mercbants, and Joseph Bartee. : By applying to Frank Scales, the Treasurer and Secretary, No. 61 La Salle street, Room 1, any information wished for can be obtained. —<—<—>__—_— AMERICAN WATCHES, The American Watch Company, of Waltham, received last week anorder from the British Government for 872 watches, intended for the use of conductors, station-masters, and other employés of the State railroads of India. This ig the third large order received by the Com- pany from the same source, and, like the former ones, was obtained in public competition with foreign manufacturers. The London Jeweler and Metal-Worker,in its issue of Jan. 15, ob- serves, in reference to this order: ‘t The contract for watches to be used by the officiuls on the Indian State railways has again been secured by the American Watch Company. This is the third time Messrs. Robbins & Appleton have received this distinction, which is not a barren one, for it must be evident to the most prejudiced individ- uals that the timekcepers supplied on the pre- yious vecasions must have given satisfaction and answered the tests required of them. This is a mortifying fact for Englishmen, especially for those who believe that, were mymnufacturers here to show more enterprise. they would be able tocompete advantageously in the manu- caccite of grades of watches.”—Boston Ad- MARINE INSURANCE.

Concerning the object of this meeting but ttle has trans- pired. Yet it is surmised bere that an effort will be made to fixa uniform card-rate on cargoes for the season of 1880, upon the customary slid- ing scale. A minimum, or bottom, bull-rate will most likely also be agreed upon. The question of insuring veszels and cargoes on and after the sth of March will come up. too, and insurance ‘men here express the opinion that risks based upon a rate of 4 per cent premium for bulls will be permitted to go into effect as carly as the 15th inst.

Chicago, Ahead of Course, Se= cures the Best Mines, Recent Discoveries in The New and : Colorado. , 5 Atthe Shermen House there is at present quartered Mr. C. H. Hook, of Hot Sulphur Springs, Middle Park, Colorado. Mr. Hook isan old miner, and has resided some sixteen years in that State, and owns the stage-lne between Georgetown and Hot Sulphur Springs. A Tain- UNE reporter bad a brief talk with him yester- day as to Colorudo and its prospects. Among other things he said: “I am glad to see that the Utes have partially consented to give up their reservation. You may make up your mind that the Utes must go, as the rich discoveries now made in ovr State must, of their natural attractiveness in point of wealth, draw a large and enterprising white population to our State, and drive out the good-for-noth- ing and unruly savage.” ‘ “How about your section in point of mineral wealth?” “Well, the best we have is in the Rabbit-Ear Range, about fifteen miles west of Grand Lake, in the County of Grand. I think that the best discovery that has been made yet for ricbness_in quantity . and quality is the Grand Luke Mine, which a@ chloride and sulphuret ore. This mine for five years lay neglected though miners pnssed by ‘and over it in thelr prospecting tours, and none of them interested themselves until recently, when it came into the hands of the Chicago & Biddle Park Mining Company. This concern, composed entirely of Chicuxzo gentlemen, made a thorough test of its ore and found something remarkable init. The mine atonce showed its undisputed richness. There are at leust 2.500 tons of ore in sight, which will average at the lowest estimate no_ less than 350 ounces to the ton, of pure silver.which would reack about $390 a ton {fn value, and there is also a gold yicld of about $40 to the ton, which will more than pay for the working of theore. WhenI speak of the ore in sight { mean the actual measure- ment fronr tunnel tosneft, and the shaft is only down twenty feet at presont; anda tunnel run down from the hill on the vein shows the same character of ore, except that the ore we richer as the tunnel proceeds, aud would give an addition of severul thousand tons to that al- reudy actually in sight. And, from every indi- cation, old miners assert that it is a true fissure yeiu. and that the ore is inexhaustible.” “Who struck this bonanza?” “Jt was discovered by Jack Baker, an old miner, who also discovered the Baker Mine, which’ has yielded immensely. He loca twelve mincs abuut the same time in the same locality, the best of which are the Bank of En- gland, Deuver Mint, and sume nine others.” “By the way, Judge Hook, who arc the fort- unate persons who have secured these mines?” “Well, let me see; there's Col. Alvin Hulbert, of the’ Sherman House; Mr. Henry Mor- an, Mr. Joseph H. Dixon, Mr. J. M. Root Col. William H. Thompson, Mr. L. H. CGlark, Chicf Engineer Michigan South- ern Railway; Capt W. J. Mr. J.G. Lansing, Mr. George A. Hook, Mr. H. J. Barker, and Mr. 3f..A. Decker. I have locat- ed for this Company some fifteen other carbon- ate claims, on Willow Creek, Carroll Creek, and Pony Park, in the immediate vicinity of rich placer gold diggings, which were worked ata good profit last seuson.”” +5" How do you regard the prospects of this new mining region, in which these rich claims are lucated?” “No person, except those who visit the country, can for av instant conceive the vast ‘amount of wealth that is even cropping out on the surface in this section of country: it is but recently that the people and miners who are living in the locality have begun to realize the immense rich- ness of these mineral deposita. You may talk of Leadville; you may talk of her rapid growth and extraordinary mineral discoveries of but recent date. Bui here, less than one hundred miles from there, there have been discovered, and are daily being discovered, far richer mines than were ever known in the region known as tho Leadville country. They are something wonderful and will startle the world in the magnitude of the wenlth which they will bring forth. And I want to say to you fur- ther, that Nature here, too, is kind. Water is plenty and of the purest kind, powerful enough or ail’ manufacturing purposes, and timber of the finest quality, inoxhausttble. There are, also, large coal-beds and any quantity of fire- clay. And this property young man, is owned ‘by your Chicago people have mentioned, who do not yet realize the immense valuc of what they own. It is a country where the climate is delicious in the summer and fail, and the win- ters a comparatively mild. Game and brook- trout, elk, mountain-deer, grizely-bears, eto, abound, and it is a resort of foreign hunters and tourists. The mineral springs consist of bot sulphur, magnesia, soda, etc., and are immensely health-giving in their qualities.
