HE GETS THE LAND
Hajor Hugh CaHisle Is Owner of Seventy
Thousand Acres.
WAS INVOLVED IN LITIGATION
A Largo Portion of Sand Mountain in
Possession of a Pioneer
of Alabama.
I Tlome, Ca., Decemlier 29.—(f*t>ccial.) —The
most gigantic land ease that has b- en b--
f-re a southern court in many years has
ju t la-eli setlii-i by the awarding i>v the
fi-dcril courts of 70,(>e0 acres of land to
;\l - jor lluuii I'arli promoter and builder
us the Tennessee and t’oo/a railroad.
What makes the decision of large impor
tance to tl.-orgians is the fact that there
are so many of them vitally interested in
I th.- result of the suit. The case is one of
long standing anil dates b;u-k to the year
I'-.-tl, when congress passed an act granting
a largo ar-a of pul-lie lands as a b-inus
for th*, construction of a. railroad from the
Ceosa. river aen.-ss Sand mountain to tlio
T<-nr;essce river.
The terminal points were to be Gadsden,
on the Coosa and Guntersville, on the
T- innsr.-e, both ol' which points were on
i w.it'-i :. The line wa* 1-ss than
one hundred miles long, but the rough ami
i ru; -id nature <»C the cam try through
v. ii.-h It was proje-ted more than made
up for double th-- dist inee and cost of
const ruction. The proviso attached to
tm- rant was tliat 11.0 r-ild was to bo
eornpli-te-i ami in operation within ten
j , ~1.- ol th.- grant.
The Lice Surveyed.
As railro.nl l-u.hi.ng bad not reached the
pr-- eat degree of perfection, tn those days,
tlie surveyors found it a very ditllcul-t mat
-- r to I.X ate an available line up the steep
sJu' -s ot Pat -1 mountain, which rises ab
ruptly from tin- <’oosa valh-y to a height
i ol over ll,a"O feet, forms a plateau twenty
to twi-nty-nve mil-s wide, and then de-
s. mis as abruptlj- to the vali-.y of tlie
T- i.nesri-e.
Notwithstanding th-so -li.ll ulties. how
cii-r, a line was located ai-nm the winding

They tilled the opera house to overflow

A RICH" FIND.”
Large Yein of Slate and Quartz Strata
Discovered.
GLEAMING WITH PYRITES
Which Holds an Immense Quantity of
Gold—Can Be Worked Cheaply
at a Great Profit.
Canton, Ga. I ice, inlier 31.—(Special.I—
Two weeks ago The Cherokee Advant •• pub
lislied an Interview with Mr. R. W. Walker,
who is one of Canton’s most ctmservative
citizens, and one of north Georgia's clev
erest mining experts, in whit h ho was
quoted us saying:
“About ten miles northwest ot Canton,
on the • astern slope oi’ the Oaky moun
tain, a large vein of slate and quartz strata
was recently discovered, which Is fully
live miles long and is more than )'»i yards
wide by actual measurement. The vein is
cut across at short intervals by small
mountain streams, which exixise the sur
face of the vein, so it can be seen without
additional prospecting.”
Your correspondent has for some time de
sired to visit this new “find” and, if found
as r,-pres*med by Mr. Walker, let The
Constitution tell the world of the immense
wealth of this section in tho jiossession of
this one single vein. So, in company with
Mr. Walker, your correspondent spent a
half-day e.f his ( liristmas holidays last
week v<ry pleasantly investigating the
vein. Chara, ter of the ore. etc., as report
ed by Mr. Walker, and is now ready to
verify all that Mr. Walker said as regards
the quantity and extent of this tlnd.
From along a bold mountain stream tor
more than P'O yards across the vein a
numb, r of samples of the ore were taken,
win h were bright and glistening with py
rites in abundance. Leaving the branch we
went up th,- mountain sid,-s and at differ
ent places broke off pits-es from numerous
bowlders, which we found to he of the
same character of ore.
Tlie ore there is refractory and contains
about It! per cent of iron pyrites, which
carries all of tlie gold. No frj •• gold has
li.-i-n found on this lead, except a v-ry
small quantity, but the gold is all in the
qyrl .es or sulphur, I les. which require re- ,
ductiou and concentration.
An Entirely New Lead.
Mr. Walker sajs lie bas had about
twenty-hve assays of this on- made, which
run troiii fl to sUi.'''s per ton, averaging
about $3.5>1 per ton. This |.-:id is an entirely
new one, no gold discoveries liav.ng been
mod, heretofore in that se-tion of the
country so far as your correspondent is
advised.
l or many years the gold tk-lds of Georgia
ami of the south have been little worker,
m tiiily is-< ause the ore here is of low
grad.. With very little free milling ore,
except in irregular v< ins generally on or
mar the surface, but of late years im
proved macb.mery lias Ixen introd'i"' 1 ex
pressly adapted for working low grade
or,--; and tin- Thi. ss and other ehlorinattou
process's invented and put into suc-ess
li.-l op*-ration for saving th, gold, by which
or, s of a value not exee<-*ling 52 per ton
may now be prolitably mined and milb'i.
In consequence a new impetus has been
given gold mining in the south and many
of tlie mines in Georgia are now being
opem-il and prolitably worked that Hero
once considered unprofitable.

and otli,improved machinery, with the

MINING DEPRESSION.
The Phosphate Industry Seems to be
Doomed in Carolina.
Columbia, S. C.. January I.—(Spec:a’.)
The phosphate mining Industry in Hus
state, which was long one of the largest
in the world, and which xv is a gn at source
of wealth, appears to be doomed. Tl'.e de
pression has reaciied the climax, and with
dullness in the business and the serious
comp, tition in this ami foreign countries,
no wav for the early revival of the business
is in sight. The state gets a royalty of
cents a ton on all phosphates mined in th*
navigable rivers, and J75.0H1) from thi source
is pledged as a sulking fund for the pay
ment of the state debt, it is not thouicnt
that tie business will «vt so depressed
as not to bring in this amount, but that
will tie about all. whereas the sum coming
into the treasury from that source has
amounted to from Jii'XoiO to J3OO.OW> in for
mer years. .
I’hosphate Inspector Jones in his annual
report to the legislature, which has just
b*-'n made, says tho outlook for the
ness is gloomy in the extreme. I'rices have
sunk to a figure never before known, and
tlie greaiest discouragement prevails, loth
In Florida and this state. It is impossible
to g*-t in Europe now even us high as
pence a unit; tho prices vary from •» to ;
pence. At tin se prices, after paying the
royalty, and with the most ’avorable
freights, the mining companies are unable
to make more than $2 per ton tor their
rock. Tli is does not enable them to live.
The strictest economy is being pra< Heed,
wag-s are being reduc* 1. saving devices
are Ix-ing adopted, ard tli— cost of mining
has be-n reduced to the mlrrmum: but even
with tiiis, unless there i.- an improvement ;
in the market, tbe phosphate companies
inu-'h stop. Tlie Carolina Mining Company,
which is a wealthy one, composed of Eng
lishmen. ha.; aln-udy ceased operations. :
Tiie company could not mine the rock with .
u profit at present pri*-*-s. it is not known
whether it will ever resume. Its stoppage :
m -ans the loss of a large revenue to the •
state. Other companies are mfning. but .
with greatly r*-due*-*i forces. The Coosaw !
isimpany. the largx*st of them all. has re- I
iluced its working force to a minimum.
The rea.-jons for this depression are not ,
hard to find. In th- first plate, the d<*
press.-1 condition of agriculture in this ,
country and Europe has limited to a very
great extent the demand for crude phos
pha’- rock as a basis for the manufacture
of fertilizers, but a mor.* potent cause is
to lx- found in the opening of n- xv mines, :
which have come in fierce comp -iition with
tb<- South Carolina product.
Tennessee rock continues to be actively
mined, and tl"- production is steaddy in
creasing. This rock ma ds no washing or
drying, as does the South Carolina roll.
Its analysis is satisfactory and it is largely
used in Georgia and points in other . at-.«. ;
li t ils th- place of the rock ot this stall
satisfactorily an! is a forma’able comp t- •
Itor. Florida continues to increase her pro
duction. While a great many companies
have ci’ised operations, still enough have
been l. ft to keep up a large production.
Within the last few uw-Ks a new bed of
phosphate has been discovered in S - ’.iine,
France, and as it analyzes w.-11. it is ex
pected that the dev.-lopment of the mines
v.ill curtail the exportation of rock from
tiiis state to tlreat Brit im ■ th- < ri’.i
