THEY WILL HE STARTED IN A PAY Ol

" \YASHiNoro.v , October 3. In the
matter of the star route coses Distric
Attorney Corkhill" appeared before
Judge Cox this moni'ng and asked i
it was not necessary for. those agains
whom the information has been filec
to answer to the court before i motion
could bo made to sot it aside. The
court replied in the aflirmntivo. Col
Corkhill then asked that" no motioi
may bo entertained on the part o
the defendants' counsel until the government
ornmont bo given two days' notice
Judge Cox agreed to this and duo notice
tico will bo given through Special Attorney
tornoy William 0. Cook.
Notwithstanding Judge C x's de
cision not to listen to any motion for
quashing the information against the
star-routers until the government has
had two days' notice , the defendants
have not given notice , though a mo
tion to quash is already prepared am
is in the hands of General Totter. I
will bo submitted to the court on
Wednesday or Thursday , if an oppor
tunity is otl'ercd. It will bo based 01
the ground that the recent tiling o
the information before presented to
the grand jury was unusual and tha
the facts alleged and set forth are in
sufficient to maintain the decision.

EXAMINING WITNESSES.
WASHINGTON , October 3. At 11 a
m. the grand jury began to hear wit
nesses in the Guiteau case. The firs
called was Surgeon-General Barnes
and a half dozen others were disposct
of by noon , as follows : Dr. Lamb , Gee
Adams , Mrs. White , Officer Kearney
Detective McElfcst and MrJ Bailie
the stenographer who took dowi
Guitcau's statement. It is expectet
that a bill may bo returned some tinf
to-day.
AN IMMEDIATE ARRAIGNMENT I'ROIIABLE
It now appears that the witnesse
heard by the grand jury in the casoo
Guiteau to-day wore not fully exam
inod. Surgeon General Barnes am
Dr. Lamb were requested to icturi
to-morrow , to which time the gram
jury adjourned. It is possible that a
presentment will bo made to-morrow
and perhaps an indictment will also bo
returned , as by to-morrow evening
Scoville , the counsel and brothor-in
law of Guitcau , will have arrived
It is not unlikely that a term may bo
fixed for the arraignment of the pris
oner.
ONE OENT KOJl COUNSEL FEE ? .
This morning a money order was
received from Smith Jones , Nolson-
ville , Mich. , for the payment of ono
cent to Guiteau to bo used as counsel
fees.
THE ASSASSIN dETTINf ! NERVOUS.
The assassin is yery nervous as the
day for arraignment draws near.
Within the past few days there have
been reports in circulation that parties
contemplate an attack upon the jail ,
and it was said that Now Yorkers ,
Jersoymen , Philadelphians and Balti-
morians were to make the attack. No
such attack was mado. Tlio probabil
ity is that the report had its ori in in
the fact that a few days ago a deter
mined looking man asked for admit
tance to the jail and was refused.
It was noticed that he was heavily
armed. When ho loft ho suddenly re
marked : "You may feed the wretch ,
but wo will got him on Sunday night. "

The provisions which the governmon

prevented by the turbulence of the

sympathy and Chilli dare not oyac
uato. Caldoron has asked Chilli to
withdraw her troops , hoping his gov
eminent would bo uphold but the bos
informed Jpooplo besought delay ii
evacuation , fearing the assassination
of Caldoron and cabinet , and a roigi
of murder in the event of the with
drawal of foreign protection. I'ho
terms of peace between the provin
cial government and Chilli have boon
nil arranged , Caldoron acting on ono
side and Senor Gody on the other.

STUIUIIH CITV , D. T4 , September
25. Your correspondent having
hoard much of the Itlnck Hills conn- t
try , determined to lake it in and decide -
cido in his own mind whether it was
a country abounding in mineral or
not fooling that if the country was
once subjected to his own orucivo in
vestigation , there could bo no longer
any question of its merits or demer
"outfitted" fora
its. He accordingly
trip across the plains and after many
pleasant little incidents of travel
reached Sturgis City in good mental
and normal condition. If the writer
had but the making of his own weath
er , he could not have tempered it
moro nearly to his wishes than ho
found it in its nomadic and normal
condition.
The loii } ? mule and bull-trains are
found at Pierre , either loading or
drawing their seven lengths along over
the undulating prairie liillwards. A
few are in camp in the vicinity wait
ing for opportunity to load and rest
ing their teams for awlnlo after their
return.
The shipments are heavy , including
all tlio commodities of commerce , with
the exception of oats , potatoes and
vegetables generally. The rich agri
cultural lands with which the hills are
invested have this and last year moro
than supplied the demand. In addition
to the annual heavy shipment of ma
chinery , there is this year that of rail
road iron for the Homostako company.
Thu great demand for lumber and
wood by this company has made the
facilities of a railroad necessary in
supplying the demands of their great
mills. At present they have eight
miles graded , on four miles of which
the iron and tics are already laid. The
object of this road is to supply the
company with fuel.
The mineral and agricultural wool th '
of the lllack Hills never stood out
moro protuberating than they do to
day. It has a combination of all the
elements of wealth , singularly blended
within a radius less than a hun
dred miles. There is , in the first
place , an abundance of- timber
for all the local wants of the
country , Ihulding most of the finest ' - >
varieties. Limestone and , gyp umv.
enough to supply the world. Gold
bearing rock is nc t found much in
loads or crevcesoi but in solid moun
tains , sufficiently rich to pay for mill
ing and mining. ROCK has , been
found in the Hozpl. Tigen and other
mines that will yield from $50OdO to
$80,000 to the ton. On the oilier
hand , much of the rock milled by the
Homestnko will not , or docs not , yield
over Sl.oO per ton Thesq extremes
open uj > a vista of intervening , possibili
ties that must look very seductive and
tempting to idle capital 'in the east.
But as a general thing the mineral
body of the country is not sensational
iu its developments , Capital is moro
easily captivated by ( a thrco-inch
crevice of § 20,000 rock than by a
mountain of < [ iuirt/ yielding only 85
to the ton , while the latter would
prove much the richer investment.
Then wo have silver mines in vari
ous parts of the Hills in which metal
io found native and in Galena and iu
all the varied salts with which it is
known to form a base , such as chlor
ides , carbonates and sulpherets. Some
of them , just partially developed , are
enough to bear shipment to the
smelting works at your city ami
give largo profits in return to the ship
per and owner.
The silver in tor tints of the country
are moro neglected than the gold ,
while the machinery employed in
smelting and lixivatmg is moro costly
aud complicated than th.it used in the
production of gold bullion.
There are many millions of dollars
ia the placers that will within the
next Ion years bo added to the gold
productions of the United States.
Much of this will bo obtained by
hydr.iulicing ai soon as the small ,
wandering streams can bo "rounded
ill ; " and subdued to the service of the
miners. Tlio introduction of artesian
\\olls , now on the eve of being experi
mented with , will convert many pieces
of placer ground into lobust pro
ducers.
In addition to the sources of under
ground wealth already mentioned ,
there in valuable mines of mica , al
ready a source of revenue to their
owngrs ; also , soft petroleum and coal.
When wo add to this a remarkable
climate , tempered by the isthoaed of
' 01 , which gives our soft , balmy scho-
roots , in mid-winter , and tem
pers the wind to many of us
shorn lambs ; and a rich and
nnd remarkably productive neil , wo
have encompassed about everything
the neart of man can wish for his
creative comforts and the acquirement
of wealth.
Sturgis City in a thriving and busi-
iiiess place of twoyeaiu standing. It
is in the gateway to thu hills in the '
Hoar Uutto Valley. It is within 12 ,
miles of Deadwood and of Golend ami
one-half of Fort A rondo. It is sur

tural country , nnd a beautiful loc.i
tion for a city. f ,
The silver ere from Golond is ship- v
pud from this point on trains to the
i wl. It is tied up in small 100-pound
jacks and in this manner it is easily
liandled. Other Golond mines will
piobnbly follow suit , nnd in loss'tlian
