Agnea Mellon, thr l«-ye«r-old daughter

Of the eminently rs-spectable provincialJailer at Victoria, and William J. May-

nard. the son af a well-known merchantof the same city, eloped yesterday morn-ing on the steamer Kingston', intending tobe married as soon as they arrived In Re-gitI*.

Unfortunately for them, their flight wasdiscovered in time to notify Chief of Po-

? Mce Reed before the steamer landed. A*the young couple walked down the gangplank tfiey were met by Detectlven Cudi-hee and Bam Corbett, who had no troublein recognising them from the description

wired by Superintendent lieussy, of theVictoria police.

*1 expected something like that," said

tbs young girl as she read the message."Wall, I did not." added the younc man."Why did you elope?" asked one of the

Mectlvic.The reply was to the eff ct that they

bad acted upon the advice of a friend.Miss Mellon was placed In charge of Police

Matron Taylor, and Mavnard was lockedUp in the city Jail A dispatch was im-mediately sent to Victoria, notifying Su-perintendent Hetwsy that the arrests hadbeen made He replied la>;t evening thatan officer would be over on the lirst boatfor the young couple.

Miss Mellon Is not handsome, but sheha* prstty gray eyes and a wealth of darkbrown hair. In society language, shewould be called a sweet girl. She comesfrom a good famtly. and she did not elopebecause of trouble at home over her choiceof a partner for life. Sly has kept com-pany with young Maynard for some time,

and they both thought it best to come toSeattle and be married at quietly as po*-?ihle.

TO BRING GOLl) HERE.SCHEWE TO DISCHARGE WEALTH

OF OKA*OGA* IJ SEATTLE.

Dr. P. Laaahammer Proposes to RIB

a Steam Bar*e From the Mlaes to

WeaaAehee. Coaseetiag There

With the Great Northern for Se-

attle?Weald Cost 113,000?Tryingto Interest Loenl Capital.

Dr. LanghammT, who has just returnedfrom his mines In Okanogan county, was

seen at the Butler yesterday, and replyingto inquiries relative to that section of thestate, he said:

"I have concluded to organise a companyto work the mine* and ship the ore in bulkIn steam i>arges constructed for that pur-pose. You are aware that the great diffi-culty to overcome In Okanogan is lack oftransportation facilities, and this is a se-

rious loss to the business men of Seattle,who could derive a large amount of tradefrom a rich mineral region that Is natur-ally tributary. While the merchants of

?his city have virtually controlled thetrade of Alaska, they should not overlookthe fact that there are other rich miningcountries demanding attention nearerhome. ami. further, that there are activecompetitors in the field seeking to attractthe trade of these mining districts.

' The mines in which I am directly inter-ested are 42 miles from Penticton, B. C,where connection can be made with theCanadian Pacific railway, whereas Wen-atchee, on the Great Northern, is 150 milessouth. While the ore is rich in gold, ex-pensive transportation is the solution ofthe whole businws. That is why I amhere to see the business men and peoplewho are interested !n the prosperity of Se-attle and the mines.

'?Beginning in a r.ninll way. my planwould be the construction of a steambarge drawing from 52 to 15 inches withoutcargo, and with cargo from 18 to 20 Inches.'l'his craft would carry lt*> tons of ore inbulk, consigned to smelters at Seattle. Atranshipment would necessarily have to

be made at Wenatchee from the boat to

the cars, and the Great Northern would beexpected to furnish bunkers or derricksfor the rapid and easy handling of thebulk ores. Navigation on the Okanogan isonly interrupted for a short time in thewinter, and li» the dry season occasionallylow water may prevent operations tem-porarily, but this can be overcome hydredging. All the heavy loads would l>ecarried down stream and the light ones upstream. It Is in the construction and op-eration of this barge that I am desirous ofinteresting the merchants and businessmen of Seattle. A vessel to inaugurate

this enterprise would not cost to exceed$12,000, and that it would make money rap-idly can be seen from this statement:

"The productive mining districts already

open In Okanogan are Palmer Mountain,Slmilkameen, Osoyoos, Kruger, Falrview.Rocky, Upper Kettle, Mayers. Camp Mc-Kinney, Bonaparte Mountain, etc. Thesecould be made tributary to such a naviga-tion enterprise.

"At the Ivanhoe mines. Palmer moun-tain, there are 2.000 tons of ore averaging

fc»o per ton. This is on the dump and couldbe shipped at a profit to Seattle. Thesemine* can produce daily from s*) to 100 tonsof a much higher grade ore. Seiffert Bros,and Robert Allison, of the Meyers creekmines, can deliver several hundred tons orhigh grade ore monthly. 1 have five claimsat the junction of the Okanogan and Sim-lllkameen, which, with an expenditure ofabout 13,000 in further development work,would he in condition to furnish monthly1,000 tons of a value of s3i per ton gold.

This ore could be dumped from the openchute and shafts and tunnel directly intothe barge. This ore. after deducting ex-pense of mining, transportation, reductionand wastage, will net from IIS to S2»i perton. or from Jl*,ooo to $20,000 per month,providing facilities are afforded for theshipment of 1,000 tons a month.

"This will give an idea of the wealththat will flow this way In the shape ofgold ore.

"The boat, returning, will go laden withmining supplies and machinery and alarge amount of merchandise. What youhave seen done in the way of securing thegreat trade of Alaska to Seattle, you cansee duplicated in the trade with Okano-gan."

LEDGES OK FREE MlLLhti ORE.

Discoveries In the Olympic* Cr«»«te1 onsltirrnlile Excitement.

Special Dispatch to the Post-Intelligencer.BRIN \« >N Wish., May 9.?Dr. Briken-

stene and Thomas r>. Miller arrived inBrlnnon this evening from MountainHome camp, about sixteen miles fromhere, and repor* ?he discovery of a num-ber of free milling ledges, ranging fromten to fifty feet in width. The news rfthe discovery of free mllllne ore in thisvalley has caused some excitement, inthis district up to date about 130 claimshave been located.

Mr. Gordon has one ledge 100 feet inwidth, which scorns to he the backbone ormain lead of the free milling locality.Three prospectors. L. Phillips. WilliamNickel ant S K Thrift, are. it Is sup-posed, staking out claims on free mill-ing ledgvs.

The ore is of a grivlsh irreon color andvery hard. The formation there is slateend porphyry. The surface fromthese ledges run from 3C to f.*. One shaft«ias been start»'d, but no returns frombelow the s.irfaca will likely be receivedfor two weeks or more.

Y. If. C. A.

Statement of its Preseat Condition

aad Chief *eed».The following statement as to the con-

dition and needs of the Y. M. C. A. shouldbe read by every citixen of Seattle:

The Young M»n's Christian Associationha* now a $23.00# mortgage on Its prop-erty, which matures the lfith of thismonth. This mortgage is held by the PennMutual Life Insurance Company, of Phil-adelphia. The note by which this mort-

gage is secured is signed by fifteen prom-inent business men of Seattle. The com-pany promises to bring suit on this noteat once on maturity if it is not paid.

If the association will pay f5.500 on backinterest and principal by May I*s. the loanwill be extended three years, and the in-terest reduced from 7 to 6 per cent., thusreducing the expenses of the associationnearly s3> per month. It is this proposi-tion that the Y. M. C. A. Is endeavoringto accept, and for which the $2,500 fund isbeing raised.

The lot upon which the associationbuilding stands was bought in MB© forsl2.<-X> cash, which was raised entirelyamong the your* men of the city. A sub-scription of $25,000 was then raised amongthe business men to put up the building,the intention being to place only a SIO,OOOmortgage upon it. The most conservativebusiness men of the city, believing thatthe city would continue prosperous, ad-vised the erection of a building such asthe present one. believing it could beeasily paid for within a year or two. Thehard times coming on prevented the col-lection of all the subscription, and it wastherefore necessary to mortgage thebuilding for the sum of $23,100. Thatmortgage was given May 16, 1*92. for fiveyears, and is now about to mature.

The Y. M. C. A. has at times during thepast five years been unable to pay run-ning expenses, and hence the interest onthis loan ran behind in 1894 and 1595. Forthe last two years, however, the organiza-tion has been gaining ground and has keptits expenses considerably within its in-come. Its present membership is morethan double that of two years ago. andtherefore its work and influence are large-ly increased.

It* educational work in affording busi-ness college training to its members liasbeen taken advantage of during tiie pa*tyear by lt») young men, many of whomare working during the day, and probablywould not have taken up night schoolunder other circumstances.

It has also given a home influence anda place of social recreation to hundredsof young men who are alone in the city,and who otherwise would have beenforced upon the streets or into the sa-loons to spend thefr evenings.

Its physical work has been remarkablysuccessful under Profs. T. S. Lippy andE. E. Green, who have had charge of thatdepartment during the last three years.They have not striven to make star ath-letes of the young men. but have en-deavored to induce an all-around physicaldevelopment, as well us recreation. Alarge portion of the young men take ad-vantage of this branch of the work.

Mombers of the association also duringthr last two years have leased groundand erected Improvements upon it for thefinest athletic park and bicycle track inthe Northwest, presenting it to the asso-ciation without cost. This park has beenft popular place of recreation with Seattlepoople, and has drawn large numbers ofoutsider* into the, city on several occa-sions. Its main purpose, however, withthe Y. M. C. A., has been as a place ofrecreation for its members.

Other branches of work are beingup, and will be pushed along as rapidlyas the association can afford to under-take th^m.

Out all the work has prospered, andhas, of course, served the purpose forwhich it was Intended, of drawing theyoung men of Seattle under Christianinfluences and leading them to improvethemselves both physically, mentally,and, above all. spiritually.

t'nless the tS.SOn fund is raised the mort-gage company will commence suit on the523.W note, and the association's goodwork will have to be entirely dropped forseveral years, and then begun all overagain.

It needs fifty $lO subscriptions and asmany more for J5 today to complete thefund. Come in and do your share.

LAWS AND BUSINESS.JIDGE LEWIS BEMRYBS THE TWO

ARE niIICAL.

A Former Reiidcat of Tills City. Who

Has Extensive Interests la Wash-

iaatoa? He Finds a Great Im-provement la Business. Dne to De-

velopment of Vines. Demand for

La inher aad Increase in Oriental

Trade?Xot Much Eastern Moaejr

State Laws.

Hon. J. R. Lewis, formerly of this cityand now of San Jose. CaL. Is in Seattle onbusiness connected with h!s extensive in-terests both here and In. Yakima, whichplace fie will visit before his return home.

"I have been studying since my arrival,

several days ago. a hook that is very diffi-cult to understand." said Judge I>ewisyesterday afternoon, at the residence ofM. D. Ballard, where he and Mrs. Lewisare visiting. "This book is the session laws

of the state of Washington. I had finan-cial affairs to look tip both for myself amifor Ensiern and California parties that Irepresent. While I am not actively en-gaged in practice. I have just so much todo and a part of that work led me to visitSeattle at this time. Incidentally. I lookedover the late session laws to familiarisemyself with existing conditions and alsoto report to my correspondents in Califor-nia and the East the condition of businessand the effect of recent legislation.

"I find business good; a vast improve-ment upon the state of affairs when I wasin Seattle last fall. 1 ascribe the improve-

ment to the development of the mines, thedemand for lumber and the opening oftrade with the Orient.

"I have Interviewed many business mensince my arrival and have in all cases dis-covered a much more encouraging feelingthan Icould have believed had It not beenbrought directly to me. This feeling is lo-cal. however, and does not prevail all overthe state. Seattle is forgijig ahead in a

business way. but little can be hoped forin the way of investment by Eastern mon-eyed men. The laws are such as woulddiscourage investors, being all in tavor ofthe debtors. This does not refer to the tax

law. To a man out of debt it makes nodifference, but to a man with debts andmortgages It does. Mortgages cannot beextended, as such a procedure would prac-tically be a renewal, and a renewal wouldbring the obligation under the existing

laws. These mortgages may be continuedor they may be foreclosed. The tax law isbad. If 1 am a day delinquent some oneelse might go and pay my taxes, get a cer-tificate and let his payment draw 15 percent against my property.

"People will not loan moiuiy on tractsnot capable of sub-division, as in the event

of foreclosure they must pay up the fullappraised valuation of the property.

Tracts that are capable of sub-divisionmust draw up to SO per cent, of their ap-praised value.

"This might ultimately be of benefit tothe state, but ii will interfere with rapidimprovement as money for development ofnew countries is necessary. If there ts noborrowing there wili be no debt, and thevalues of property might deteriorate tosuch an extent that people of means mightbecome purchasers.

"Under the existing laws the city willfind it Impossible to borrow money onbonds issued for the development of theCedar river water system. 1 am ratherglad such is the case, as I was opposed tothe measure, believing that there is waterenough for the next five years. At the endof that time Seattle will have a populationof a hundred thousand or more and willneed a new system. The law will not pro-tect bonds that have a face value in goldand investors will not accept anythingelse."

Judge Lewis then returned to the healthycondition of business tn Seattle and statedthat all of the banks have liberal deposits.Since .January. Judge Lewis says, at least$500,000 has been placed on deposit. Hesays that In two banks alone over a quar-ter of a million has been accepted.

Today Judge Lewis will have a talk withthe stockholders of the Seattle theater inrelation to business connected with thatenterprise. June 1 there will be anothermeeting for the purpose of fixing the rentof the theater for the next five years of thelease. At that time ine stockholders havethe option of purchasing the theater,

which. Judge Lewis says, It is not likelywill be done.
