The president has issued a proclama
tion promulgating the reciprocity treaty
with San Salvador. It goes into effect
February 1 next. It is similar in its
main provisions to those heretofore en
tered into with other Central American
states and West Indian islands.
Two of the three prisoners who over
powered the deputy and escaped from
the jail at Cheyenne, Wyoming, on New
Years eve, have been recaptured. One
is dead and the other is dying. They
are Kirgen, the wealthy and notorious
cattle thief, and Charles Miller, the boy
double murderer. They succumbed to
cold and hunger.
The St. Louis Republic's Laredo spe
cial says a party in from the vicinity of
Garza's operations rejiorts the rebels in
a sorry plight as regards horses. The
hard usage they have been put to has
about used them up, they being grass
fed and being in a country where the
grass is all dried up. It is hardly possi
ble the command can be kept together
long when dismounted.
A dispatch from Carson, Nevada, of
the 2nd inst. says. Snow on the sum
mil is from C to 14 feet deep on the level.
Two Italians were lost in the snow this
week and probably perished. Richard
Eherse and John Sloughlass left last
Monday in search of a party supposed
to be lost in the snow between Placer
ville and Lake valley. Nothing has
been heard from them since. This
makes nine men lost in the snow. A
heavy storm is still raging.
Congress reconvened after the holiday
recess Tuesday. There was a .large at

The mint will inaugurate the new
year by the issue of new silver coins,
half dollar, quarter dollar and dime,
bearing the new design. The mint at
Philadelphia started on the coinage of
these pieces Saturday, and the mints at
San Francisco and New Orleans will
start as soon as the dies reach them.
The silver used will consist of uncurrent
coins now in the treasury awaiting re
coinage. The director hopes to recoin
at least 81,000,000 of uncurrent coins un
der the existing appropriation, and when
it is exhausted congress will be urged to
make a deficiency appropriation to con
tinue the coinage.
Colonel Ballou, a lawyer from Provi
dence, R. I., connected with the Graves
Barnaby ease, is missing. He took the
train for Chicago when the verdict was
rendered and probably arrived there
Monday. A Denver dispatch says:
John H. Conrad, witness for the state in
the Graves-Barnaby case, speaking of
Colonel Ballou's flight, said: "Although
Ballou fled, it is as easy to bring him
back as it was for him to disappear. I
will follow him to the utmost parts of
the world." The grand jury met Mon
day, when Ballou's flight was considered,
and it is reported he will he indicted
within the next few days.

We will go west and travel for some
time. Jay Gould may miss his daugh
ter, hut he'll gain a good son-in-law, and
he needs one. What do you suppose
he'll give us for a starter?" An exami
nation was held Monday and the "Prinz"
was pronounced insane.

capitalization of 8108,000,000, were sold
under foreclosure during the year.
While this is less in the number of
roads and slightly less in the mileage
than the totals of the previous year, it
shows an increase of about 83,500,000
over the capitalization represented by
the sales of 1890. A summary of fore
closure sales for sixteen years shows a
total of 498 roads, with a mileage of 53,
748 miles and a capitalization of 83,033,
304,000. Receivers were appointed in
1891 for twenty-six different companies,
representing 2,159 miles of railroad and
884,479,000 of capital.
Chief Joseph of the Nez Perce Indi
ans, his nephew, the young chief Long
Ha r, a Umatilla Indian, and Moses Min
thorn, an educated Christian Indian, ac
companied by Agent Crawford of the
Umatilla reservation in eastern Oregon,
are expected shortly to leave Spokane
for Chicago and Washington to plead
with the Indian authorities to allow him
to return with his people to the old home
in the Blue montains of eastern Oregon.
The Nez Perces, it will be remembered,
rebelled against the attempt to remove
them from the Blue mountains to a
strange reservation, and led by Joseph,
made their phenomenal running fight
with General Howard in 1877. After
their defeat they were stationed on the
Colville reservation, near Spokane, but
they have never been content and take
slowly to the customs of civilization.
The New York Herald Valparaiso cor
respondent says he hears that the Chi
lian government has cabled orders to
Minister Pedro Montt at Washington to
make a sincere apology to the United
States for the unfortunate and deplora
ble attack upon the Baltimore sailors,
October 1st last. The apology is un
qualified in character. Other matters
which have been in dispute between
Chili and the United States are to be
speedily considered by the new adminis
tration. From semi-official sources
comes the reason why the Santiago po
lice are kept in the vicinity of the Amer
ican legation, which is that the intend
ente of the city is in daily receipt of let
ters containing threats to burn and sack
the legation. The correspondent asserts
that it is no secret that those who cher
ish ideas of war between the United
States and Chili are friends of Balma
ceda. The correspondent learns that
the German minister, Gutschmidt, of
fered the services of his country as me
diator on his own personal responsibil
ity. This is in line with his course of
a ction ever since the present govern
ent came into office. He has pursued
with a view to getting up a reputation
himself as a diplomatist.

Washington special: Western con
gressmen have been trying to devise a
method to secure claimants of mineral
lands in Montana and Idaho mines in
case the pending case in the supreme
court is decided adversely to them.
The late Judge Sawyer of the ninth cir
cuit rendered a decision which would
give all mineral lands on odd-numbered
sections of railroad grants to the rail
roads, unless the mineral was discover
ed prior to the time the rights of the
company attached. If this decision is
sustained by the supreme court then all
mineral claims on railroad lands in Mon
tana and Idaho, if discovered since 1804,
would belong to the Northern Pacific
company, ard that would mean pretty
near all the mines on odd-numbered sec
tions. It would include some of the
best mines in the country, the famous
Drum Lummon in Montana among the
number. A plan lias been prepared to
get the best of the company in case the
decision is iu its favor, and the proposi
tion is to forfeit the lands of the com
pany which were not earned in the time
specified in the grant. That would in
clude all of Montana and Idaho There
has always been a sentiment in favor of
forfeiting those lands between Bismarck
and the Pacific coast, and such an
amendment was offered to the general
forfeiture hill of the last congress, but
failed; hut it is thought the public sen
timent that would be created in case all
the mineral lands claimed by the com
pany were awarded it would he strong
enough to force through a forfeiture
hill of these lands by the sheer necessity
of protecting the thousands of mineral
claimants who have in good faith pros
pected and opened u p the mines. It is
doubtful if a forfeiture could he put
through, hut the attempt may he made,
and there is a possibility that a compro
mise would he effected in case there was
danger of its passage. The democrats
could be depended upon to pass such a
hill, because of the natural antipathy the
party has to the Northern Pacific, and
senators from the mining states might
feel obliged to vote for it in behalf of
many of their constituents.

Harry Case came down from the Boul
der camp Saturday on his regular trip.
Mr. Case reports a great amount of
claim jumping in the camp, the jumpers
commencing their work at about the
time the clock struck 12 on Friday
morning, many claims on which the as
sessment work had not been done being
relocated.
On the 11th ult., two men, whose
names we are unable to learn, arrived at
Will Corker's cabin on the Boulder and
proceeded to search the place, claiming
they had authority from the sheriff. As
it has since been learned that they had
no such authority, and as there is a
heavy penalty attached to the act of im
personating an officer, it will he apt to
go hard with the offenders if caught.

Mines of Castle.
Tribune: The only development work
being done at present on the Cumber
land consists in sinking the winze from
the GOO-foot level. This work is being
prosecuted as fast as three consecutive
eight-hour shifts can do it. It has
reached a depth of about G85 feet. When
it attains a depth of 700 feet a station
will be cut and crosscuts run for the ore
body.
The ore that has been disclosed in the
Yellowstone mine the past two weeks
awakened in Castle a great amount of
interest in that property. The mineral
that was lately encountered at the bot
tom of the shaft was unexpectedly dis
covered there. It is as fine a looking
hard carbonates as has been found in
the camp. On account of a large flow of
water into the shaft sinking was stopped.
At that time an ore body about three
feet wide was exposed. At 400 feet a
station was cut and a level run towards
the large vein that is exposed in the up
per levels. F

Silver Bow mine No. 1, at Butte, was
the scene of a fatal accident Sunday af
ternoon whereby J. T. Rand, a man em
ployed in the carpenter shop, lost his
life. Rand was at work at one of the
framing saws and was in the act of cut
ting a piece of timber for a sill, and in
stead of pushing the timber past the
double circle saw he only put it past
one, and a piece of wood, a mere chip,
weighing less than three ounces was
torn off and hurled against Rand, strik
ing him over the apex of the heart and
killing him almost instantly. He was
less than three feet from the saw, and
the force of the flying chip was not suf
ficient to even produce a discloration of
the skin. After being hit he staggered
backwards a few feet and exclaimed,
"My God!" and with his hands pressed
over his heart turned about several times
and fell dead. He was a Canadian,
about 30 years old and was married less
than six weeks ago.

HiKhivay Robbery.
Independent: On Saturday evening
the stage from Bonner's Ferry, in the
Flathead country, to Kootenai Station,
near the Idaho line, was held up by
masked men. The highwaymen got
away with jewelry and cash amounting
to about 8.),(XX*. The heaviest loser is
Ed. L. Huntley, a traveling man for a
large wholesale clothing house in Chi
cago, who had been in the Flathead
country in the interests of his firm. Mr.
Huntley wore some very valuable jew
elry, consisting of diamond cuff buttons,
stud, watch and charm. Three other
men and two women were among the
passengers. The highwaymen violated
the code of the western stage robber by
relieving the ladies of what they had.
It was about 6 o'clock Saturday night
when the hold-up took place. It took
about five minutes to go through the
passengers. About 8100 in cash and the
jewelry!was the extent of the haul.
After finishing his work the robber
jumped off the sled and said, "All right."
The man near the driver's head said,
'•Drive on." The three men stood in the
road and watched the sled move. The
passengers looked back, hut in half a
minute the forms of the robbers faded
in the dark and heavy shadows of the
timber.
Huntley went to a newspaper office as
soon as he got to Kootenai and had pos
tors printed offering a reward of 8500
for the conviction of the men who held
him up, and his assistant, who was trav
eling with him. He also offers 81,000
for the return of the watch and dia
monds to John Bruegger «fc Bro., of
Kootenai. Idaho. Mr. Huntley's Pacific
coast address is care of C. G. Huntley,
Centralia, Washington.
Lust in tlie Snow.
Independent: William Schreiner, the
well knoWta merchant of Wickes, reports
the disappearance in the mountains of
Thomas McKeon, foreman of the Crys
tal mine, near the Copper Bell, twelve
miles from Wickes. The facts indicate
that McKeon 1-ost his route and is prob
ably buried in the snow. He came to
Wickes Saturday, December 26, and was
paid off by Mr. Schreiner, who is inter
ested in the Crystal. He made a round
of the saloons and displayed considéra
hie money. The following morning, ac
companied by a hoy, he started with
Schriener's team for the mine. The
team returned to Wickes without a
driver! and Schriener started hack to
learn what had become of the men. He
found them asleep in a cabin nine miles
from Wickes on the road to the mine.
It had been snowing hard and the road
was difficult to travel. The hoy returned
to Wickes with the team and the next
morning McKeon, with his snow shoes
on his hack, started for the Crystal. He
was last seen that morning by Joe Flem
ing crossing the divide between the
Crystal and Black Bear. The four miles
from this point to the Crystal is through
a heavily timbered country, covered at
that time with three feet of snow.
There is probably no more difficult road
for travel at this time of year in Mon
tana. When Mr. Schriener learned that
McKeon had not reached the mine he
sent men out searching in the vicinity
and sent letters and telegrams to vari
ous points McKeon could have reached.
The next day he returned to Wickesand
organized other parties to search until all
hope is exhausted. Mr. Schriener, how
ever, has very little hope of finding any
trace of the missing man. Since he left
the camp the snow fall has been at least
three feet. McKeon has been around
the country for the past seven or eight
years, though he nas no relatives in this
state.
