Most important, perhaps, is the rk accomplished on the 14th level.

I nero has been further enlargement the big stope opened in the w'in from No. 2 crosscut iroin which li.out two hundred tons of high grade if is being taken daily. The drift run .1, the vein for the purpii.se of giving ventilation in crosscut No. II is iiupleted and the driving of this cross ut, which is now forty feet in flno ore, mil be resumed at once. The main drift has reached- a point near-v ninety feut beyond No.

Sinking mil Mon begin and proceed rapidly with a complete electrical equipment. Hi August the first crosscut on the With level should be in the sulphide ore. It shaft is now well below the tenth el and connection should be made it that level with A shaft about May 1 or soon thereafter. The Kiskey vein near tho east line the Old Dominion on the 10th level i producing a very desirable sulphide inning about 8 per cent copper, the utire drift being in ore of this grade.

A drift was start- I on Friday and yesterday six feot nt from the crosscut and eight feot tiom tho footwall was in ore showing insiderable carbonate and oxido of upper. Drifting will continue and it i- not unlikely that an important ore will soon bo opened A winze will also be sunk 200 feet from this i vel. The crosscut at the KiO-foot level of Me Great Rastern shaft was in about t.ity-seven feet yesterday and the mnn gwiieut thinks it should cut tho Black Hawk lode within tho next two days.

I In- breast of tho crosscut is now in mineralized ground. Judging from the ilrtelopments in the Black Hawk mine ami the trend of the lode a large body 't good ore should bo opened on the i. -at Eastern. President James Chynoweth is greatly encoiuaged by recent developments i ml will remain a week or ten days "tiger, expecting that important ore Udies will bo opened on the Superior a Boston within that time. Inspiration I'lans for tho active operation of the Inspiration property have been and will lie carried into effect within i few days.

A gasolino hoist to sink feet is being installed and the 'i anagement expects to start tho mill within a few days. Tho mill will ban-'! from seventy-five to one hundred of ore per day and the supply of to keep it running is abundant. Hic-rc aro or 7,000 tons of good 'necntrating ore on tho dumps and it expected that almost enough oro will taken out in prosecuting development keep tho mill going. General Managor J. D.

Coplen states "it three shifts of miners have boon irking for three months running the W'st drift on tho Woodson tunnel level mil sinking a winzo. Somo fine glnnco sulphide oro has been takon out 1 hilo doing this work and tho whole if is in good oro at present. Work was discontinued on tho doop "mze below tho Woodson tunnel until hoist should bo installed and nnothor 'nizo was started, which is down fifty-ix feet, and this winzo as well as a irift from tho bottom, is in good ore. I he Woodson tunnel will bo extended to flOO feet through tho mountain 1 i the delivery of mino products to 'f railroad, which is to bo extended to thin half a mile of tho Inspiration me. The company has fifty tons of il hero and more ordered.

Iu addition to having oro iu both crosscuts, tho company now has a good grado of oro in tho bottom of tho shnft.

There is not a great deal of it, but it runs high iu copper and is a source of much encouragement to tho management of the company.

NEW YORK, April 13. Democratic societies and clubs in all parts of Greater New York tonight celebrated Jefferson day. Tho Democratic club held Its annual banquet nt tho Waldorf-Astoria, and tho Women's Democratic club at tho Hoffman house.

Tho Independence league had ns its guests William R. Hearst and Attornoy. General Jackson. Tho principal speaker ut the Democratic club's banquet was Senator Isl-dor Raynor of Marylnnd. Ho responded to the tonst, "What should bo tho proper policy of tho Democratic party and what is true domocracyf" "I do not accede to tho view thnt the parties havo coalesced," said Rayner.

"On tho contrary, I believo they are as widely apart as ever they have been. The president will not havo a permanent tenure of office. One prediction can be safely made and that is, when the Republican party has another candidate and it is bound to havo ono somu day or another, ho will gradually drift away from a great many of his pinhs nnd purposes and will resume business at tho old stand. Then it will be time for us to come back to our old principles unless in tho meantimo we have so disfigured them that we will not ho able to recognize them when we find thorn." Outlines Platform Rayner then outlined his views on the Democratic platform. "I would make it brief and pertinent," ho said.

"I would eliminate tho customary monotonous indictments against the opposition for crimes they never committed nnd omit all rcfcrcnco to tho virtues wo propose to practice in ovent of our success. I would give tho country something new in. the way of a Democratic decalogue. I would incorporate a plank for low tariff and commercial reciprocity with tho trading nations of the world. "I would odd a plank declaring thore is no such thing an an unwritten constitution of tho United States, that if it requires change it must be amended, not by Secretary Root, but by the suffrages of tho people; that it is a treasonable act to insert into it, whether by judicial construction or otherwise, any power or grant that is sot confined within tho well defined authority and limitations of the instrument.

In obedience to the constitution I would then unequivocally declare for tho supremacy of the states, not to yield tho smallest portion of their sovereign right in matters of local or domestic concern. "I would then explicitly announce thnt tho Democratic party is in favor of strict nnd impartial enforcement of every fedoral enactment upon the statute books; that tho greator and mora powerful the criminal who violates it, tho moro severe should bo the penalties. would then announce that tho party is not in favor of territorial expansion nnd that our arms should bo halt called in our march of aggrandizement, and that upon tho field of war wo do not propose to unite other robber governments in the despoilment of foreign territory and in conquest of ces." liarvey Koasts Bryan Georgo R. M. Harvey iu the course of his address snid: "Wo are told that tho president chosen by tho peoplo is immune from criticism; thnt ho is a thing apart, not a mere executivo officer, but a tribune enveloped in an odor fo sanctity, safeguarded as in tho days of old.

It is tho new idea. Tho critieism of official conduct has been tho prerogative of the people. Not so now. Tho heavy hand of fear rests upon the land. Tho mighty organization known as the Republican party lias becomo a moro personal machine.

Its former leaders havo drawn back affrighted to their corners. Their wishes aro no longer regarded, obedi-once to tho edict is not only exacted from, but enforced upon them." Harvoy thon denounced tho Democrats "who oat the crumbs of patronage from the hand that smoto them and lick tho boot whoso impact thoy havo folt." Ho referred to tho ''peerless leador, who hobbles like a cripple in tho wako of his successful rival, gathering as ho goes the fow scraps that are left of his own fallacies." Tho speaker ridiculed tho Democrats and Republicans who denounced Roosevelt in private, but are too cowardly, he said, to voico their opinions publicly. "Tho president's policy hns already caused tho abandonment of largo commercial undertakings and all who have anything at stako thank God in their, hearts for tho promiso to forego a third tonn and devoutly hope with no little misgiving for tho keeping of that pledge.

This is Mr. Kelly's first visit to Globo in seven years and tho great change in the city since that time surprised him considerably, although he has heard much of Globe's growth and prosperity of the past few years.

He believes that tho mines and smelters of the Warren district companies will close before recognition is accorded the Federation of Minors.

J. Arnold whoso business career in Globo hns been comparatively brief, but full of trouble principally for their creditors loft Globo yesterday morning with out saying "hello," or oven "peace bo with you." They wore evidently leaving for fields in which they would bo new and pastures green, although it is doubtful if they could find a greener pasture than that which Globo has afforded them. Shortly after their doparture tho news became known and a warrant was issued iu Judge Thomas' court for their arrest on tho chargo of obtaining money under false representations. The complaint was mado by a local bank. Word was sent to Bowie to intercept tho couple nnd it was learned last evening that they wero boing held awaiting the arrival of a Globo ofKcor.

A deputy sheriff will leave this morning to bring them back. Mr. and Mrs. Arnold, so it is alleged, started in business hero on the proverbial shoostring, buying tho Metro-polo saloon and cafe. Mrs.

Arnold was the head of the firm, but hor probably botter half, sinco tho advent of tho firm into tho business whirl of Globe mado a police court record that will stand for some time. Attachments wore an almost daily occurrence and occasionally thoro was an arrest for assault, to break tho deadly monotony. The (attachments wero usually raised on the strength of money coming from Germany several thousand marks, it was said. Thero is excellent reason to believe, however, that tho marks wore in Globo, although not quite that many. It is to bo hoped that, like nappy Hooligan, tho Arnolds will extricate themselves from their present predicament and that they will bo allowed to pursue their journey as far as thoy like the farthor the better.

MA 0 BUW1E FOURTH DAY OF BISBEE STRIKE One Hundred and Fifty Men, Some of them New Ones, Return to Work in the Mines. FIVE HUNDRED HAVE LEFT THE DISTRICT Sheriff Orders that Threats of Violence Will not Be ToleratedReported Closing of Two Important Mines, Special to tho Silver Belt. BISBEE, April 13. Tho fourth day of tho strike in the Warren district sees tho number of men who remained at work reinforced by at least one hundred and fifty, many of whom laid off for tho first throo days and somo of them new men in the district. It looks very much as if the condition was beginning to right itself, as It is estimated that about 500 of the men quit work have already left the district, being conscious of tho futility of the strike while such a big majority of the miners remain at work.

The action of the mechanics in ro-maining at work seemed to break any hope that the strikers had of success although the organization has pickets posted along the various avenues to tho mines in an endeavor to persuade the working men from going to tho shafts, but their efforts aro meeting with little success. Miner Threatened During the courso of tho afternoon it was reported to the authorities that a union picket stationed near Lowell had tried to persuade a miner to quit work and when the latter refused to, take his directions tho former is alleged to have threatened him with death. Shoriff White was immediately notified and proceeded to the scene, but the picket had gotten away. This evening the sheriff called at union headquarters and told Organizer Cannon that such threats would not bo tolerated. Later the sheriff made this announcement on the streets.

No Disturbances Up to date thero has not been tho slightest disturbance of any kind. Judging from the gains being mado each day in tho number of men at work it looks very much as if the end of the troublo is near and many believo that all of the shafts will bo operating with a full force of men within a week or two. The organizers aro still making extravagant claims as to the number of men who have quit, but it is almost generally conceded- now that they aro doing this in the hope of being able to hold in line those men who have quit work. It seems that many of the reports being sent out of Bisbee are very conflicting. Private telegraphic Information was received here yesterday that fully 60 per cent of the miners in the Warren district wore now out and' that the Shattuck and Dcnn shaftaJiad- been closed down.

These rcportsrhave not as yet been confirmed. It is known, however, that many miners have left Bisbee, every train going out taking crowds of the miners, who are off to other camps.
