DEADWOOD, S. D., June 16. (Special.)
The Imperial Mining company of this city
ha let n contract (or the erection ot a
100-ton cyanide plant, which will he built
Immediately In tht First ward. It Is to be
the most complete plant of Its kind In the
Black Hills. The Imperial company Is a
reorganization of the American Express
company. It holds a large acreage of
ground in the Dlack Tall district west of
this olty. Four shoots of ore have been
opened up on lower quartzlte, which run
from $10 to $30 per ton gold. It Is ame
nahle to the cyanide process, a lest run on
several thousHiid tons of the ore having
been made.
It Is the belief of the company that thero
Is a free-mllllne bcarlne formation be
neath the qufrtzltc, on the ground, and the
new cyanide plant will be built with the
expectation of some day putting In stamps.
The nock of the company Is held mostly
In Pennsylvania. This will make the third
cyanide plant for the, First ward of Dead-
wood. It Is now expected that tho Dakota
company's plant- will bo ready for operation
by the first of August, it will have a. ca
pactty for treating 100 tons per day and It
Is being built almost rntlroly by money
furnished by Deadwood business men.
Cleopatra .lllnr Mrll Hitch.
The stock ot tho Cleopatra Mining com
pany has gone far above par value. This
Is a good thing for South Dakota Investors,
since most of the stock in tho company
Is held by men living In the eastern part
ot this state. At tho annual meeting of the
company, which was at Aberdeen, S. D.,
this week, It was voted to place the re
malnlng stock In tho treasury at $1.50 per
share and most of It was subscribed for by
tho officers and stockholders ot the com
pany at the meeting.
The Cleopatra company has one ot tho
finest mines In the Black Hills, which Is lo
catcd In tho Squaw creek district, adjoining
tho ironsides mine. Tho latter property
was bought sorao tlmo ago by Colorado
Springs people. The Cleopatra mine has a
large amount of $10 ore, which Is found In
the upper contacts. The lower oro con
tact on quartzlte has not been touched yet,
although a shaft has been put down nearly
to that level. It Is believed that oro shoots
will bo found on qunrtztte thn mitio as in
the other producing districts farther south.
It Is the Intention of tho company to sink
the shaft deeper this season and $20,000
will be expended In development work. Tho
company has a fifty-ton cyanide plant in
operation, which will probably be doubled
In capacity this summer. For several
months past monthly dividends have been
paid to the stockholders.
Mammoth Steel HolntlnR- 1'lnnt.
The Uncle Sam mine, twelve miles south
of this city, Is now one' of tho richest pro
ducers in the Black Hills. Permanent im
provements have been added to tho prop
erty In tho past two years by tho Clover
Leaf Mining company ot Montana, It being
stated that not less than $250,000 has been
tho cash outlay. A mammoth steel hoist
ing plant Is nearly completed at tho old
' stamp'trilHntid' underground, the Old work-,
lng'a have been cleared and extensions
made, which have opened up a large, as
well as rich ledge of free-milling ore.
Three months ago It was announced by the
management that the crosscut had pene
trated fifty feet of ledge matter and sine
that time the development work has been
continued uninterruptedly. Twenty of tha
sixty stamps have been dropping on ore for
several months and It Is said that the
cleanups are. very heavy. Twenty stamps
will bo added to the mill, making eighty,
and all of them will be In operation as
soon as the new hoist Is completed. This
mine has been opened by Nick Treewek,
who was for a number of years mine fore
man of the Homcstnlta company. The suc
cess of the Home8tako Is said to have been
brought about greatly through his manage
ment of the underground work.
The Uncle Sam mine Is undoubtedly a
rich shoot of ore that has been raado on
tho southern end. of the Homestake ore
lode. Tho principal backers of the com
pany aro rich cattlemen of Wlebaux, Mont.
There are rich streaks of ore In tho mine
that are rivals of anv of tho bonanza finds
In the Illack Hills.

Three shifts of men are working on a

NEW KIND OF MISSION WORK
Sir. WnnKoiipr Clone a AVeeU'n Lect
ure EiiKiiKemonl nt First
Christian Church.
W. H. Waggoner of Eureka, III., closed a
week of missionary lecturing at the First
Christian church last night. Mr. Waggoner
Is not a missionary, but an instructor In
missionary work. This Is a field which he
has himself originated, and ho is the sole
representative of such work the world over.
Mr. Waggoner Is a graduate o'f Yolo col
lege and has gone to tho very depths of his
subject. Since 1894 he has devoted his
whole tlmo to this work.
The lecturer's work consists of an ex
haustive treatment of religions the world
over, this being the base for a discussion
of the headway Christianity has made In all
parts. His talks are Illustrated and enhanced
by the use of large charts showing the com
parative followlngs of the different re
ligions, the numerical extent of the differ
ent races, the strength of Christianity In
the various empires, etc. Stereoptlcon
views aro also used.
Mr, Waggoner's work Is Interdenomina
tional, he having lectured to churches rep
resenting nineteen different creede. He
lectures constantly, having been on the
rostrum for sixteen weeks so far this year.
From here he goes to Elliot, la., for one
week. In Omaha he has had small audi
ences, but those attending have always
shown Intenxo Interest In the subject and
Its presentation.

United States In 1900 was $420,139,288, that
year being the record year of tho five. The
annual average was $376,369,368.
Europe was decidedly our most Important
source of agricultural Imports, we taking
from that country In 1900 $129,000,000 worth
of farm products, being the largest In re
cent years except 1897, when we received
$152,000,000. Asia In 1900 sent us $101,000,
000 In agricultural produce, a rapid rise
from $66,000,000 In 1896.
Our farm produce Imports from Oceanlca
also rose rapidly, being $31,000,000 In 1900,
against $22,000,000 In 1896, while on tho
other hand there was a falling offof two
millions In our Imports of farm products
from North American countries, there be
ing $83,000,000 In 1900, against $85,000,000 In
189S. The Imports, however, In the three
years preceding 1900 wero larger than this.
Thero was a large falling off In agricul
tural Imports from South America, they
being $S3.000.000 In 1S96 and only $61,000,000
In 1699 and $60,000,000 In 1900.
Our African farm produce Imports de
clined from $10,400,000 In 1S96 to $6,700,000
In 1898 and rose again In 1900 to $10,600,000.
Toffee Mostly from llrnsll.
Brazil, owing to Its heavy coffee trade,
holds the fonmost place In the ranks of
countries sending us coffee supplies, Its
total for 1900 being $39,287,000. Our Im
ports from there, however, have been
steadily decreasing. In 1896 they were
$60,668,000. Tho United Kingdom ranks
next to Urazll, with $32,606,000 worth of
farm products exports to the United States
In 1900, n gain over the two Immediately
preceding years, but a loss of $15,000,000 as
compared with 1897. In Dutch East Indies
the rank was third In 1900, with $27,600,000
In agricultural products sent to us, tho five
year period showing a steady gain, the
figures for 1896 being only $14,598,000. Cuba
in 1900 sent us $27,226,000 In farm produce,
the war resulting In such fluctuations In the
statistics as $36,386,000 In 1896 and $13,
168,000 In 1898. Germany comes next with
$26,019,000 In 1900, against $22,523,000 In
1896 and $11,35S,000 In her record year of
1897. Japan and China made largo gains
during tho Ave years, Japan sending us In
1900 $24,767,000, against $18,382,000 In 1896
and China $21,131,000 In 1900. ngalnst $18.
619.000 In 1896. France sent us more In
1900 than In any one of the other years
given, being $21,052,000, ns compared with
$17,758,000 in 1896. Hawaii, likewise, made
a record In 1900, with $20,638,000 worth of
farm produce, exported to us, ngalnst only
$11,710,000 In 1896. Italy's gain was from
$15,958,000 In 1896 to $20,529,000 in 1900, and
Mexico's from $12,751,000 In 1896 to $20,
000,000 In 1900. Other countries sent us
less than $20,000,000 annually.
Tho leading articles ot farm produce Im
ported by us In 1900 were. In tho order of
their Importance, sugar; hides nn'd skins,
coffee, silk, vegetable fibers, woods, fruits
and nuts, tobacco, tea, wines, vegetable
oils and cocoa, the value of each of these
exceeding $5,000,000. Our chief sugar Im
ports came from the Dutch East Indies,
$24,170,000 worth, Hawaii, $20,392,000; Cuba,
$18,244,000, and Germany, $12,347,000.
Following these countries at very con
siderable distance were the British West
Indies, British Guiana, Santo Domingo and
Porto Itlco In tho order named. The Brit
ish West Indies surpassed themselves In
1900 In sending us hides and skins, we
taking $10,031,000 from them, besides $7,253.

wallnns throughout the country. Yet there
was no wrong In r.ny of this because It was
all done by tho very pure people who make
up tho family compact.
"Judges left their sacred duties to wal
low In the mire of Hawaiian politics and
they lold aside their ermine to appear as
prosecutors In tho police court while Jus
tice was dead In the land, but that was
all right, because Mr. Thurston, tho devil's
partner, as ho boasted himself to be, de
manded It, and the family compact en
dorsed his demand.
"Laws, Justice, right wero set aside and
a reign of terror, ns atrocious ns ever dis
graced any Spnnlsh-Amerlcan state In
augurated In Hawaii; but nil that wai right
and proper, because It was done by tbo
family compact.
"Tho people hero have long had their
eyes open to tho real stato of affairs and
they hoped one year ago that President
McKinley would relievo them b) appoint
ing someone governor from without tho
pale of tho family compact. But tho com
pact had not yet run Its course. It dc
eelved tho president, ns It has deceived
others, and Mho cry of the people ngaln
went up, 'How long, oh Lord, how long.'
But at Inst the truth Is permeating the
United States. Facts about tho psalm
singing, sycophantic, hypocritical family
compact are becoming known and tho
people and the newspapers of tho main
land aro beginning to look Into tho true
state, of nffnlrs here. Official circles at
Washington are slowly opening their eyes
to the truth. Already the pillars nt the
family compact temple are tottering and
soon they will be leveled to tho ground.
When that time comes, as como It must
very soon, tho people of this territory will
bo saved from further wreck and vengeance
by the most dastardly, cowardly, cold
blooded and brutal organization ever found
among civilized people the family com
pact of Hawaii."

The business men of Omaha are not con

tho building of tho proposed Omaha-Em-

bent on securing a lino that will open
up tho territory which that road con

a lino through the rich territory which It
was proposed to enter with the Emnorla
line. Discussing this movement. Secretary
Utt said:
"It Is a matter of common knowledee that
the Rock Islund pcoplo are expending sev
eral million:) In oxtenslons and Improve
ments. Their line between Liberal, Kan.,
and El Pnso, Tex., will soon be completed
and tho company Is proposing to build a
cut-off between Belknap, la., nnd Tren
ton, Mo., nnd nnother between Cameron
and Kansas City to shorten the line be
tween Chicago nnd Kansas Cltv. These
aro but parts of tho work contemplated.

"An Idea has been entertained th
when the El Paso lino Is completed this
road would certainly build a cross line
noiween its northern and southern sys
tems, and It now scams possible that It
may bo induced by proper representations
to do so. Omaha men who were Interested
in the recent project for an Emporia line
can certainly see that thero is an oppor
tunity to secure a line through nearly tho
samo territory, which would be ot more
advantage to them than tho Emporia lino
woum navo ocen.
"If tho Rock Island were to build surh
a lino It would best conserve the Inter
ests of the company and ot Omaha to have
u tap the present main lino at South Benrl
Cass county, and travel almost duo south
ward through Pawnco City to McFarland,
Kan, This lino would traverso practically
tho same rich agricultural section ns that
contemplated in tho Emnorla nrolect. n
section of which Is now almost devoid of
adequate railroad facilities, and would be
given tho advantage of a trunk line instead
of a short, Isolated road. Tho building of
the Rock Island to EI Paso makes this
connection almost Imperative, nnd it built
It would bo a through route from Chlcngo
to El Pnso.
"It would glvo Omaha a direct route
to Fort Worth and all Texas points nnd re
duce tho dlstnnco so that they would b
only about eighty mllc3 farther away from
mis city man rrora Kansas City, and only
about sixty miles farther than from St.
Joseph. It would give to Omaha, Kansas
City and St. Joseph rates to the southwest
and would afford tho Rock Island system
in Iowa a direct connection with its
southern system, avoiding the long nnd In
direct mute by way of Bellevlllo, Kan.
Tho Rock Island would only have to build
about ISO miles -of road to effect this
seemingly cssontlal connection."

J. E. Houtz has received word from tho

sots nt rest his contention thnt the agents
of members of the Chicago Board of Trade
operating branches In Omaha are subject
to assessment as operators of buckctshops.
Tho decision comos In the regular reports
and briefly states that where an agent of a
member of n Board of Trado operates an
ofilce In another place, he is not subject to
tho terms of the law governing bucket
shops. By this decision Is ended a matter which
threatened to cause considerable work In
tho department of Nebraska. Out of ninety
brokers, probably twenty claimed exemp
tion from payment of tax under this pro
vision of tho lnw; other operators paid the
tax under protest, and tho collector re
turned all who refused to pay, to tho com
missioner for assessment. Hnd tho deci
sion sustained tho collector, the managers
would have been required to pay a penalty
of 60 per cent of tho tax In addition to tho

MAKES AN APPEAL TO RAILROADS
Ocnrrnl Effort to I'rnmntr I'orrMry
Throughout the Country, In Which
J. NtrrlliiK Morton Is nn
Active Factor.
John P. Brown of Connorsvlllo, Ind., seo-rctary-trcasurer
of tho International So
ciety of Arborculture, Is In the city on his
return from Denver, where ho has spcut
several days in tho Interests of tho so
ciety. Tho International society is . tho
outgrowth of tho Indiana Forestry associ
ation. J. Sterling Morton of Nebrnska City
Is the president and C. A. Schenck of Bllt
more, N. C, Is the vice president. Its ob
ject Is to create a wider Interest In tho
growth of foreBt trees, not only in the
United States, but In tho entire continent
of North America. It corresponds with
the societies for the propagation of forest
trees In tho different countries of Europe
and is in the van of tho movemout.
At tho present tlmo tho secretary-treasurer
is working to Interest the railroads
nnd other lnrge corporations In tho move
ment, ns these corporations will soon find
that they cannot secure ties and poles,
which they rcquiro In construction. Mr.
Brown says that ho Is meeting with con
sldtiiablc success and somo of the roads
havo set out plantations. While desiring
tho planting of nil sorts of forest trees,
Mr. Brown especially urges tho claims of
the hardy catnlpa to recognition. Speaking
of this tree he says:
"The hardy catalpa originated In Indiana
and spread over Illinois and parts of Mis
souri. It Is a tree of rapid growth and
much value can bo used for ties and tele
graph poles and, In fact, anywhere where
timber of small size Is requlrod. There aro
two varieties of catnlpas and It Is hard
to distinguish tho difference. Tho south
ern catalpa was sent out by cnrcless nurs
ery men for the hardy variety nnd mnny
plantations nre now valueless as a result.
"The government made a mlslnko in tho
application of tho 'timber claim' law aul
refused settlers the right to plaut some of
the best trees known, notably the Osage
orange or bols d'arc, and the result wau
that settlers wont to the ncarost stream
and secured Cottonwood or box elder trees,
valueless wood nnd poor shnde trees, so
that as a means of Increasing the area of
forests In tho country, the timber claim
laws were practically vnluelcss."
