that would punctuate the future with
exclamations of wonder and surprise.

THADE   REPORT. ,.
Bradstreet's report on last week's
business ls as follows:
One looks in vain at this writing for
any evidence that the general business
of the country had been ln any way
Interfered with by the—for the time
involved—severest fail ln prices In the
history of the New York stock exchange. The general conclusion reached is that, Indeed, the conclusion ls
purely a "stock panic," not Involving
or connected with the general Industries of the country ln any way. There
will not, in fact, be a bushel of wheat
or a ton of coal less in the country as
a result of this convulsion. Speculation in grain and other staples has,
however, been checked by the concentration of Interest upon the stock market.
General trade advices this week are
ln the main rather more favorable than
those of last week, mainly because of
the Improvement in crop prospects, due
to seasonable rains following planting.
The lull In the active buying demand
for Iron and steel noted last week Is
mainly because mills and furnaces are
already heavily sold ahead, and large
consumers, having placed orders, are
now awaiting delivery. Bank clearings, swelled by enormous stock earnings continue to show satisfactory Increases, and failures are down to a
normal minimum. The textiles are
still the soft spot ln the general situation and are still dull.
The feature of the week in the crop
situation Is the arrival of rains
throughout the northwest, which has
placed the spring wheat crop, now
nearly all planted, in excellent condition.
In the southwest and central west
crop reports aro generally good.
Weather conditions on the Pacific coast
are most favorable for crops, and a
good yield of grain is Indicated.
Failures for the week number 193,
compared with 163 last week, 184 in
this week a year ago, 164 in 1899 and
250 in 1898.
Canadian failures for the week number 26, against 17 last week, 19 In this
week a year ago, 21 in 1899, 25 ln 1898
and 31 In 1897.

May 1 came and went at Butte, Mont,
without the rumored trouble with the
miners, but all is not yet serene. The
smeltermen's union has demanded of
the Butte & Boston Mining company
and the Colorado company that an
eight hour a day be given the yard
men, teamsters, machinists and blacksmiths, who were not given the eight
hour a day when the miners were.
General Manager Gillie was not here
when the demand was made, and the
union is waiting for an answer. At
the Colorado there are only 30 men,
but at the Butte & Boston there are 75.

ue of the property. Jay P. Graves, who
owns the controlling Interest in the R.
Bell mine, in Summit camp, has acquired the Champion claim adjoining lt on
the east, from Alex Omon, Joe Burron
and Fred Munn. The second payment
of $1500 on a bond of $5000 has been
made.

He-pulilie.
No more work will he done-On the
Quilp on the raise, as the air Is too foul.
The Quilp compressor plant ls:agaln
running and the machine drills are
breaking ore.
The teams are busy hauling ore from
the San Poll mine to the Republic mill,
the ore bin being refilled as fast as
the ore la drawn from lt.
There will be more shipping now
from the Republic camp than has been
expected at any time since the trouble
between the mine owners and the mill
company.
Eureka gulch Is fairly alive .with
teams and wagons. It appeared to
have been suddenly transformed from
a nearly deserted avenue to an active
thorougfare.
Returns from the last shipment of
19 tons of Morning Glory ore have been
received. The ore carried six and three
quarter ounces of silver. That is equal
to about $140 per ton.
The Quilp mine is to ship its ore to
the Republic Power & Cyanidlng company's mill, and if reasonable profits
can be made from the first trials it will
from now on be a steady shipper.
The Lone Pine-Surprise mines will
soon be favorably heard from no doubt.
The grade from the Lone Pine ore
dump to the main road has been nnder
repair and was finished recently.
The trial shipment of ore form the
Ben Hur mine is completed and did. not
exceed 110 to 115 tons. Whatever the
exact tonnage may be will depend on
just what quantity can be hauled
through the day.
A force of men have started to work
at the Black Tail mine, and a few hundred tons of ore will be run out of 1t
within the next few days, to be hauled
to the mill. All that nas yet been shipped from the Black Tail so far had
already been filled Into the ore bin.
News has reached Republic from
Sheridan camp that the Phil Sheridan
group has lieen bonded to James Cron-
an. Mr. Cronan Is a mine manager of
large experience and excellent good
judgment. The Phil Sheridan group
is owned by Peter McCormlck and
Thomas Phlnney. It is situated about
three-fourths of a mile northwest of
the noted Zella M., out of which a
considerable quantity of very rich ord
has been taken. There are two feet
of this ore on the footwall, and three
feet more of highly mineralized vein
matter. The ore is a sulphide, carrying silver, gold and copper.
tn mm; NOTES,
The work of grading for the proposed
railway to connect the Holden mines
with Lake Chelan is fairly under way.
Mining men who own property
throughout the Newport (Wash.) district, on the Pond d'Orellle river along
the Idaho-Washington line, are watching the development of the Copper Hill

At Burke, Idaho, the Hercules has
cut Its ledge, and while not yet In as j
far as It was expected that the tunnel
would have to go to get. ore, some ore
of a very fair grade was found where
the tunnel cut the vein.
During the month of April the mill
of the Great Northern Mining & Development company at Gilt Edge, Mont,
crushed 4100 tons of ore. and tho production of the mill in bullion was $33,-
000. The average value of the ore was
a little more than $8 per ton.
An effort Is being made by prominent
stockholders of the Iconoclast Gold &
Copper Mining company to reorganize
the company on an assessment basis.
The company's property Is the famous
Iconoclast, near Kellar, on the south
half of the Colville reservation.
Captain John Gray, the superintendent of the Crystal, noar Davenport,
Wash., says .that the miners who are
drifting on the 300 foot level have cut
a seven foot vein and are near the main
lead. Another crow of men have been
put on and in 10 days Mr. Gray expects
to be shipping ore. The output will
be hauled to Davenport and loaded on
CATS.
A carload of mineral specimens from
eastern Washington havo been dispatched to Buffalo, where they will be
displayed as a part of the state's mineral exhibit at the Pan-American fair.
One of the principal exhibits is a mantel from the United States Marble company, which has its quarries at Valley.
Many fine specimens of gold, silver and
copper ores were also Included. All
In all the collection is the finest that
has ever left the state. It is in charge
of Superintendent C. L. Knot.
The Providence, in the Cedar Canyon
district (Wash.), which had been shut
down for the past three months, ls
working again, and will begin shipping
as soon as the roads are in condition
for traffic. A crew of 40 men will be
put on in about two weeks and the
property will be worked to its full capacity. The Elephant, in the same district, has 15 cars of ore sacked and
ready to ship. The old Deer Trail,
which has been shut down for three
years, has been leased to Captain Bur-
bridge, who started a new tunnel and
at a distance of GO feet and 40 feet
depth struck a large body of ore. Several new properties In the Cedar Canyon camp are being opened up this
spring and additional men put on In
the old crews. The camp i3 very active
and large bodies of ore are blocked out.
The Elephant has $180,000 .in sight,
and In the Providence there is $75,000
worth. It is expecte'd to put on crews
sufficient to take this all out this season.

Irish people, wu a needless insult to s
people who havo furiindied the only
brilliant generals that P.rit.rn has produced since tho days of MaiHiorou^h,
and furnished commanders for the
British forces such as Wellington,
Roberts and Kitchener. Irishmen have
laid down their lives nu every British
battlefield that the meteor flag of
England might be carried on to victory.
Read the names and records of the
British toldiers now serving or who
have served in tbe present Boer war
and Ireland in porportion to her
population will lie found to have done
more than her share. Irish politics
and politicians may lie radical and
peculiar in their methods, hut that is
no excuse for an intuit flung in the
teeth of a brave people whose sons are
fighting on every kopje over which the
British standard floats. There it an
