A sill floor Is being\niput in and the ore so far talcen from\nth s shoot is of an excellent grade and\nthere is evidently a large body of It.\nThe development of the fifteenth and\nsixteenth leveels of the Centre Star\nis being proceeded wtth but has not\nprogressed far enough as yet for results. The outlook on the levels between the fifteenth and twelfth ls encouraging.. The mine sent to the smelter last week 3,460 tons of ore,\nNow that the weather Is settling\nnnd the open season close at hand,\nthere Is considerable talk about leasing, and it is probable that .several\nproperties will be leased in the immediate fufture. \u2022 It fs understood that\ntwo or three parties are seeking to\nlease the Evening Star, The Evening\nStar last wek Was under lease to Andrew H. Heldler, and he extracted\n877 tons ot ore trom It. It Is thought\ntihat the mine, economically managed,\ncan be made to pay a good profit to\nlessees. Other parties are negotiating\nfor properties in the South Beit, In\nthe neighborhood of the Blue Bird,\nwhich has outputted a considerable\namount of a good grade of ore and\nwhich is now being operated by lessees.\nGood reports como from the I.

Crease yesterday\nmonrnlng. The prisoner pleaded guilty\nto the charge of house breaking. The\nmagistrate remanded him until 2 p.m.\nwhen a sentence of three yours in the\npenitentiary was given, His Worship\nin passing sentence addressed the\nprisoner and pointed out that the offence was very serious and that he\nwas liable to a sentence of 14 years,\nhi view, however, of the fact that he.\ntlie prisoner, had pleaded guilty to tho\ncharged the sentence would be one of\nthree years Imprisonment. The articles stolen from the store which were\nrecovered by tho police were six pipes,\none razor, seven watches, three pairs\nof blankets, two pairs of boots and\ntwo purses.\nIn addition to these goods the police\nfound in a valise left by the prlsc-nor\nat Ymlr station two maple loaf brooches, twelve sets of cuff links, two gold\nwatch chain swivels, one maple leaf\npin, several cases for watches and\nrings, five gold, silver, gun metal and\nnickel watches, one brass watch movement case one silver watch case, one\ngold filled case, three round shaving\nmirrors, four shaving brushes, one\npacket of hairpins, six squeezes for tobacco ponchos, one tortoise shell comb.\nfive cakes ot Taylor's shaving soap-\nnine balls of thread, four tablets of\ntoilet soap, seven ornamental ladies*\nhair combs, seven watch movement\ncases, two gold brooches for holding\nladies 'watches, a case containing cloven gold filled watch chains, two com\npass charms, one gold ring, a quantity\nof watchmaking tools, a number of\nboot laces and a varied collection of\nsmall articles. These goads are believed by the polco to be the result\nof several other burglaries iii which\nMcLaughlin lias been engaged and\nChief Young has therefore sent a lull\ndescription to the police in various\nparts of British Columbia anil the\nStates-\nConstable Ellis will leave with the\nprisoner for New Westminister this\nmorning. Bert Tnggart, who was arrested tor having some of the property\nstolen from the Ark in his possession\nwas discharged.\nIt is likely that Nelson will very\nsoon have a bad reputation among the\n\"tough\" fraternity for since the time\nthat Chief Young took charge of tlie\npolice force early last year in only one\ncase has the committer of crime \"escaped being brought to book and pay-*\ning the penally.

J. Doherty moved\na resolution which, recalling the censure of the civil service commision of\n11107 upon which the marine department, was investigating declared that\nthe report of the Cassels commission\nwith Lhe attached evidence amply sustains the charge of official negligence\nand wastefulness and corrupt dealings\nin that department and affords ample\ngrounds for the conviction that similar methods prevail in other departments. That in order to lift the clouds\nof suspicion from the administration\nof the various departments and to\nsatisfy the demand for business like\nmethods, it is advisable and necessary\nto make ;i thorough and untranimeled\ninvestigation by a competent business\ncommission into the workings of all\ngreat spending departments.\nSpeaking to the motion, Mr. Doherty\nreferred to the work of the civil service and (.'assets commission nnd said\nhe failed to understand in view of the\ncommission's reports its to lhe lack of\nconscience, why the government delayed so long in broadening the field\nof investigatious. The reports made\nit clear that It is Incumbent upon,\nthose in charge of lhe spending deportments to not only follow the ex\nample of the mininster or marine but\nto go farther, linn. L. P. Brodeur, the\nminister of marine, declared that from\nthe first he had endeavored to put the\ndepartment on proper footing and\npointed out the patronage system of\npurchasing supplies had prevailed in\nihe department since confederation,\nlie considered the lime had arrived\nfor this to change nnd all supplies\nshould bo purchased by tender from\nthe -people prepared to quote the most.\nreasonable lerms, Regarding Mr. Doherty's demands for an Inquiry into\nall departments, the minister of marine thought it unfair to brand members of the public service as robbers.\nThere must bo justification before action was taken. The marine department was different, as there were good\nreasons for holding an inquiry.\nIn closing Mr. Hrodeur alluded it)\npathetic loiters from the mothers, sisters and wives of the guilty, which\nmade his duly So onerous.\nT.

Moran never put up a\nbetter fight In his life than with the\nHarlem boxer. The fact that Murphy\nhad five pounds the better of the\nweight cut no figure with Moran. who\nweighed a trifle more than 128. Although Murphy is fully as clever as\nNelson in ring science, he could not\nward off Moran's fast and never-ceasing attack, with the result that he received the worst beating of his career.\nIf Attell would agree to meet Moran\nat 126 pounds ringside, or 125 pounds\nat six o'clock, it is thought that the\nEnglishman would he stronger than\nthe American and would possibly win\ndecisively, just as Driscoll did. Hut\nAttell, according to his friends, will\ntake no such chances.\nAttell is anxious to meet Nelson,\ntoo, and thinks be can outpoint the\nHattler for the excelent reason that In\na 15-round go in California just one\nyear ago he held the champion lighl-\nweight to a draw. Nelson has been\ntelling the sporting public public that\nhe Is ready to meet all comers, no\ncoolr barred, at. the lightweight limit.,\nand Moran says that he will give the\nBattler a chance to show that he is\non the square. It is the opinion in\nsome quarters that Moran will be\nmaking a serious mistake if he agrees\nto fight anybody at less than 120\npounds. He is growing and in his\npresent form it is believed that he\ncan make things hum with Nelson or\nAttell. unless he is compelled to weaken himself in order to secure a match.\nWill Fight on Sight.\nBOSTON, April 1\u2014Jim Jeffries, in\nan interview today promised to make\nquick trouble for .Tacit Johnson if the\nblack champion makes good his intention of coming here next week to talk\nbusiness face to face.\nJeff declared that if he did meet\nJohnson the latter would get but little\nout of tlie financial end of the affair,\nwhich makes it apparent that if the\nbig fellow does consent to take on\nJohnson he will do tho dictating.\n\"Why not make it winner take all,\nJeff?\" said one of his friends.\n\"I think he would not meet me on\nthose conditions,\" said Jeffries.\n\"There will be no need of a referee\nor a ring,\" continued Jeffries. \"if\nJohnson persists In coming and seeing\nme next week there will be a new\nchampion in quick order If he does\ncome near me.\"\nOld Country Football,\n(\"norindian Associated Pressl\nLONDON April 1\u2014The following are\nthe results of today's football games:\nFirst League.\nWoolwich Arsenal 1, Sheffield 0.\nSouthern League.\nWestham United 4, Exter 1.\nNelson and Welch.\nPittsburg, April 1\u2014Charles Egan,\nmanager of Battling Nelson said that\na contract was being signed for a bout\nbetween Nelson and Freddie Welch,\nthe lightweight champion, at Jaurez,\nMexico, on June 16.\nHueston Wins Easily.\nChicago, Ills..
