Signal Bervice Men Are Fraised fcr Their Work in the North. —_— | WASHINGTON, Nov. & General | Greely, chief of the signal office of the | United States army, in his annual report | to the Secretary of War, shows that dur- ! ing the year the system of military tele- | graph lines and cables in Alaska author- | 1zed by, Congress has been completed and | consist of 1740 miles. General Greely i('nmm-:-d« very highly Captain Burnett, | { who wus in charge of the telegraph con- struction work in Alaska, and his assis ants, Captains Mitchell and Ginners. He | speaks of the extreme difficulties encoun- te: in running telegraph lines in the far north. Of the enlisted men of the Signal Corps, who made up the construc- tion parties, General Greely says: t is doubted whether in the peaceful annals of the army there have been met with nobier fortitude by the enlisted men under equal conditions such hardships and privations.” Tribute also is paid to the line of the' army for its service in connectlon with the telegraph construction in Alaska. General Greely says efforts are being made, with prospects of success in 1904, to establish communication by wireless teleg- raphy between St. Michael and Nome, across Norton Sound, a distance of 108 | miles. The gereral says the main Alaska telegraph lines entall a heavy bu the Signal Corps and on the garrisons in Alaska and recomemnds that the four companies stationed at Fort Liscum, Gib- bon and St. Michael be increased to 100 men at the earliest practicable date. The connection by submarine cable of the detached system In Southeastern Alaska with that of the Yukon district is recommended: also an ircrease in the en- listed strength of the corps In order that unduly prolonged service on foreign sta- tions may not be necessary as now, and further that an additional colonel be au- thorized for the corps. The value of the telegraph and tele- hone business transacted by the corps Philippines is estimated at $1,500w d it is also stated: “The entire cost Corps, including pay, cloth-, ns, transportation, cable ship ex- , etc., are believed to be well within so that the Signal Corps of the s rendered swvices in the Phillp es whose value exceeds by more than $1,00,000 the entire expenses connected with the corps s has simply been done by over- working the men of the Signal Corps and by their underpaymer s elsewhere | stated.” General Greely recommends the pur- of surplus submarine cable among other war materials.

P BUTTE, Mont., Nov. 6.—A Virginia City spectal to the Miner says afire in the Kearsarge mine, six miles frem Virginia | City, early this morning killed nine men. The damage to surface bulldings is slight. Among the dead is Superintendent R. B. Turner of Butte, one of the best known mining men in the Northwest. Four bodies have been recovered up to to-night. R. B. TURNER, superintendent of the Kearsarge. GEORGE ALLEN, stationary engineer. | JOHN TOBIN, a miner. JAMES POWERS, a miner. EDWARD LAHRDRY, a miner. WILLIAM FLEMING, a miner. ROBERT DONNELLY, a miner. | TWO UNKNOWN MEN. | All the dead miners were from Butte | and were singie men. The Kearsarge is ope of the principal gold mines of the State and is considered very valuable. It is operated by the Alder Mining Com-i pany. About 5 o'clock this morning fire was discovered issuing from the tunnel-house on tunnel No. 1. At the time the flames were discovered the timbers in the tunnei were ablaze. How the fire originated is not known, but at the first alarm all the miners, carpenters and laborers, 150 in all, hastened across the guich to aid in sub- | pay for the land, $60 expenses and $100 as | duing the flames. Superintendent Turner, | whose temporary quarters are high on the nill across the right fork of Alder Gulch and but a short distance from the burn- ing tunnel-house, at once went to the scene and assumed the dlrection of af- fairs and of giving orders in regard to the work of extinguishing the flames with the others. He entered the tunnel through the fire and smoke to give warn- ing to the entombed miners and to ald in their escape. Near the mouth of the tun- nel they stumbled over the dead body of John Tobin, who evidently had made an effort to escape, but was driven back by the flames and smoke. They carried the body to the surface and once more re- entered the workings to rescue their com- rades if possible. According to the story of a2 miner named Hurley, he, with Turner and another man, entered the mine behind him by descending through the airshaft. Hurley scend. After going some distance through thick with smoke, Hurley heard a cry and then thuds, as of bodies striking timbers, which was followed by a smothered splash in water. Hurley tried to go farther down the shaft, steps. Up to a late hour this afternoon the bodies of Tobin, Powers, Fleming and. Donnelly were all that had been recov- ered Mr. Turner had been connected with the company for several years as super- intendent of the Kendall mine and then of the Kearsarge, management that the latter mine has become one of the best known mines in Southern Montana. He was the junior member of the firm of Mitcheil & Turner of Butte. As soon as the news reached Virginia City cvery one hurried to Summit. County Attorney Duncan and Acting Cor- oner N. D. Johnson started out to hold an inquest on the body of John Tobin and remained to perform a like duty over the | bodies of the others. Superintendent Tur- ner had a wife and one child, a boy, who are living at the mine. The Alder Mining Company is now con- | structing the most extensive mining plant in Squthern Montana, new buildings, the piles of loose lumber and the dry wood and shavings every- where it is a wonder that the whole plant was not consumed by the flames. —_————— SUPERIOR JUDGE LOSES FAITH IN FOLSOM PRISON Refuses to Commit a Felon to That Penal Institution, Fearing He May Geot Away. SAN JOSE, Nov. 6.—The loose manage- ment of Folsom prison was sarcastically referred to by Judge Leib of the Superior Court this morning while sentencing John Crane for grand larceny. Crane had asked that he be sent to Folsom prison. “I shall send no one to Folsom ovrison,” and with all the in the management, as I feel that any one sent there may get away.” Crane was sentenced to two years imprisonment at San Quentin. Crane was arrested a few days ago for stealing a wheel at Alviso from Frank Topham, his employer. The wheel was sold to a saloon-keeper and after. Crane had drank up the proceeds he stole the wheel and sold it to another saloon-keeper. He pleaded guilty to the offense and asked that he be sentenced at once. ———————— ENGINE EXPLODES WITH FATAL RESULTS Tragic Ending of an Exhibition at the Ohio State Uni- versity. COLUMBUS, Ohio, Nov. 6.—While stu- dents of the Agricultural College at the Ohio State University were witnessing the harvesting of a field of corn for en- silage purposes by a machine operated by an old traction engine to-day the boiler exploded, killing Engineer Charles Pep- per and injuring seven persons, one, As- sistant Engineer John Delgarn, fatally. The injured include President Vernon H. Davis, who had his hand mangled, and several students. The force of the explosion was terrific.

Witnesses Swear That They | State Bought the Tracts on Speculation. i G Whether the United States Government intended that the timber lands open for gale should be acquired only by agricul- turists owning adjacent’ ground and for their own exclusive use only, or whether it was intended that the timber resources of the country were to be deveicped ir- respective of the personality or numbers of the developers, is the issue now on trial In the United States District Court. The case is that of the United States | against James H. Engle, William 8.} Lewis, Richard H. Lewis and Arthur W. Keddie, the wealthy owners of the Boca and Loyalton Raiiway Company and of | the Loyalton Lumber Company in Sterra | The Federal Grand Jury had| County. found four Indictments against the de- fendants charging subornation of perjury and conspiracy to violate an act of Con- gress by acquiring timber lands through their agents. Two of the indictments were quashed several months ago and the defendants were discharged. The trial began yes- terday upon one indictment charging subornation of perjury. First Assistant United States Attorney Edward J. Banning appeared for the pros- ecution and Denson & Schlesinger and Wehe for the defense. CHARGES OF SUBORNATION. The indictment charges that in May and June, 1901, the defendants procured Hi- ram Reed, Stephen L. Whittelsey, George R. Stimers, Creed T. Hill, James W. Lar- ison, Mrs. Corolynne E. Battelle, Walter L. Rees and Helen Keddfe to appear be- fore the registers of the United States | land offices of Plumas and Sierra coun- ties and swear that they were not apply- ing for the tlmber land for the use or benefit of any person other than them- selves and that they were not buying it | for the purposes of speculation. It was | alleged that the defendants advanced to | each of the nine persons named $40 to thelr commission. ‘When Bert Schlesinger announced that the defendants were ready for trial Mr. Banning asked for a continuance on the ground that the United States Marshal had been unable to serve subpenas upon George Stimers, Mrs. Corolynne E. Bat- telle, Creed T. Hill, Steve Whittlesey, ‘William S. Mead and Mrs. Jennie Ens- coe. He added that these witnesses were in hiding because the husbands of Mrs. Battelle and Mrs. Enscoe had informed the Marshal that they did not know where their wives were or what they were doing. The family of Willlam 8. Mead had professed also not to know | where he could be found. | Judge de Haven remarked that motions of that kind were never considered unless made in the form of an afdavit, and the trial went on. WITNESSES IN HIDING. Mr. Banning in his opening statement to the jury sald that he would prove that | & contract or agreement had been made | between the defendants and certain resi- dents of Loyalton whereby the latter re- ceived $400 each to buy a quarter section | of .timber land, $60 for expenses and $1%0 for profit on deeding the land to the de- | fendants, and that Engle, as a real estate agent, was to recelve a commission of 30 cents for each acre turned over to the | defendants. | Hiram Reed was the first witness. He testified that on May 1, 1901, he went to the house of R. H. Lewls in Loyalton on invitation of W. O. Peck. R. il. Lewis, W. S. Lewis, Bert Parker and W. O, Peck were present and it was suggested to him that he could take up a certain | section of timber land. Nothing was said {to him as to defraying his expenses or as to selling it to others. The witness xamined the land and went to Sacra- mento on May ¢ and made appiication at the office of the United States Land Reg- ister at Sacramento for the land. At Boca Creed T. Hill, foreman of the Loyal- | ton Lumber Company. gave him $15 for | his expenses. The intention ot the wit- | ness was to sell the land afterward on | speculation. In order to pay for the land | he borrowed $475 from Mr. Engle on the same day on which he made his final | proof, and a few hours after he had paid | for the land he sold it to Engle for $575. | The witness said that all the facts sworn to in his application were true and that he had made no contract or agreement whatever with any persons for tne trans- fer of the land. MATTER OF SPECULATION. James W. Larison testified that Arthur ‘W. Keddie asked him one day whether he would not like to locate 160 acres of tim- | ber land. He told the witness that he | | i would furnish the money to pay for the land, would find a purchaser and that “‘there would be $100 in it” for the witness. ! Mr. Keddie furnished him the money for | his traveling expenses. The witness de- | clined to make final proof and when at the Russ House in this city in December, 1901, Keddie approached him and said: | “Hello, Jim: I understand that you and Special Agent Cullom are putting up a job to get me behind the bars.” “Did you receive any money from Mr. Cullom?” asked Mr. Banning. The objection to this question was sus- tained. On cross-examination by Mr. | Schlesinger the witness admitted that he | had not examined the land for which he had applied, although in his afidavit in the land office he had sworn that he had done so. But he had been over the land very often before that and was familiar with it. All the facts that he Lad sworn to in the affidavit were true, he said. ENGLE LOANS MONEY. ‘Walter L. Rees, a nephew of the Lewis brothers, testified that he tcok up a quarter section of land unsolicited by any one and that he paid his own traveling expenses and those of his wife. He went to Marysville expecting to borrow the price of the land from Mr. Engle, whom he expected to find at that place. He had, however, sufficient money on deposit with the Loyalton Lumber Company, due him as wages, to pay for the land. His wife borrowed from Engle $460. On the suggestion of Engle the witness deeded his land to Captain Roberts a month later. Engle gave the witness $100 over and above the note and mortgage on the land. On cross-examination by Mr. Schlesing- er the witness stated that on making final proof before the land register he had truthfully sworn that he had bor- the air and blew a great hole in a barn over a hundred yards away. —e State Senator Will Be Arrested. rowed the purchase money from Mr. Engle. The defendants had not requested NEEDED FAGTS Is Received From St. Louis. Issues Publication About Quicksilver Dezposits. The general scope of the mines and min- | erals exhibition to be made at St. Louis is defined by a publication just out which | is of more than ordinary ifiterest to the ! miners of California who are now provid- ing samples of the ores of this State to be taken to the great world's show to be compared with what other States and | countries can display. The mines bullding | ccvers an area of nine acres, being larger than any structure provided for a like | purpose in the history of world's fairs. It is divided into eight nearly equal oblong parts, over each of which is a glass cover { and ventilated arcade thirty to fifty feet wide, which will furnish abundant light for the exhibits below. Bordering the great mines building along the southwest side a space 200 feet wide by 750 long has been set aside for working exhibits in mining, metallurgy ard electro-chemistry. Tunnels for under- ground mining will penetrate the hill that faces the bullding on the southwest side. On an extension of this out-of-door area, lving to the south and southwest of the ‘bullding will be located the ore and quar- ry yards, the derricks for deep drilling outfits, equipment for placer mining and kindred exhibits In operation. The area of this adjacent ground for working ex- hibits is from ten to twelve acres, making the total area provided for mining quar- rying and metallurgical exhibits about twenty acres in total. SOME CLASSIFICATIONS. The exhibits, so the mining publie Is in- formed, will be classified under fifteen | separate departments, each of which has | in rutnbeen subdivided into groups and | classes. In the mines and metallurgy de- partment there will be five groups and | fifty-three classes. In one group will be | shown the equipments and methods for geological surveys, prospecting for mb eral veins and deposits, assaying, analy ing and testing ores; drilling, cutting or otherwise breaking down rock or other mineral in-open quarries, open cuts or | mines; sinking shafts, opening galleries, | drifts or tunnels and timbering; electric, compressed air or other motors for use in | opening and operating mines and quar-| |ries and for operating equipment for | handling ores or other minerals; explo-| sives and methods of placing and firing | the same; equipment for the underground | handling and transportation of ore, etc.; machinery and appliances for draining mines and quarries; pumps for oil wells; equipment for and method of ventilating | mines; the methods and equipments for lighting mines; safety cages, signals and other appliances for safety; methods and | equipment for handling mining products and for their above-surface transporta- | tion; the machinery and appliances for the working of salt mines, petroleum | wells, metalliferous sands, gravels, etc., and the methods and equipments for quar- | rying stone. This group has possibly the most at- tractive features for the spectators from all parts of the world, who will take a sort of hasty and primary educational view of the mines and minerals and the | great variety of means that have been | devised to make up modern mining | processes. There is, however, a group of | even greater interest to persons conver- sant with mining in its economical as- pect. This group will show the equipment and | processes for the handling and prepara- tion of ores, hand sorting, storing, | sampling, crushing ana pulverizing, screens and screening, concentrating, ele- vating, conveying, drying, etc., amalga- mation, cyaniding, smelting of ores, the treatment of iron ores and the manufac- | ture of iron and steel in ingots and in| commercial form, the processes used in the metallurgy of copper, of gold and sil- ver, of tin, zinc, nickel and cobalt, alumi- num, etc THE SCIENTIFIC VIEW. The literature and scenic aspect of min- ing will be [llustrated. Each State or| country is supposed to furnish at least | one map showing the age and extent of | the geological formations of the State or | country. Each will also provide a large ! map upon which can be shown by sym-| bols or colors the distribution of all the valuable mineral or ore deposits. Smaller | sized maps are to show the distribution | in any State or country of one important | mineral. One such map will show the; distribution of the gold deposits, another | the iron or coal or copper; others will in-| dicata the distribution of surface or ar-| tesian waters, water powers, irrigation | reservoir sites and the like. Relief topographical models of States and countries will be used to show the| difficulties of mining in any particular section and all problems connected with the mineral and ore deposits and their | development. The entire subject of min- ! ing, to condense the review, will be con- | sidered from all points. California will | contribute some of the most interesting | features to be found in the mines build- ing, an estimate of which must be re- served until State Mineralogist Aubury has completed the work of making the California collection for display. A letter has been recelved from Joseph A. Holmes, chief of the Department of Mines and Metallurgy at St. Louis, in which are contained several hints that may prove valuable to the miners in con- tributing their ores and mineral sub- stances. This, in part, is as follows: At former expositions the exhibits of minerals and ores made by State commissions have not been as comprehensive or as representative as they should have been. Neither the mining en- gineer of to-day nor the general public is im- pressed with seeing large specimens of ores es- pecially selected for exhibit. What the eng: neer desires to see—and it is on his inform: tion that capitalists make investments—is a: exhibit which will illustrate not only.the aver- | age richness of the deposit, but which will show the country rock contiguous to such de- posits. The country rock is the basls upon which the mining engineer makes his investiga- tions, and if the above plan Is carried out by the various State commissions he will have an opportunity of examining the country rock of the famous®ines of one State and of compar- ing and contrasting them with the country rock of mines in other States. We are endeavoring to have this idea carried out in its fullest detail, and ask the co-operation of the commissions from the various mining States with this end in view and we trust that you wlill aid us as far as | may be possible. } QUICKSILVER RESOURCES.
