Some rather startling reports regarding a shooting scrape that occurred at the Derbec mine Friday afternoon were rife in this city yesterday. Jt wag reported that hundreds of indignant mivevs were flocking into North Bloomfield from the surrounding country, and that they were determined to take into their own hands the punishment of the shootist, who it was alleged had missed the man be fired at and wounded a little girl standing near. The real facts connected with the affair, as gleaned from Matt. Daily, driver of the stage between this city and Bloomfield, are as _ follows: When the recent reduction of wages took place at the Derbec, Thomas. Barron, who had for a long time been in the Company's employ, quit’ work with the rest of the miners. He resolved not to go to work again at the reduced wayes, and has therefore remained with the ‘‘outs.” A bitter feeling towards Captain Cox, Superintendent of the Derbec, is re-j ported to have sprung up en his part. . ‘he two men met Friday and had some words that resulted in Cox tiring three pistol shots at Barron, none -of which took effect. The Captain was arrested, and his exam‘ination was te have taken. place before A. A. Smith, Esq., yesterday. He claimed that he could prove by reliable witnesses. that Barrou had “made — serious ‘threats against there is no undue excitement at Bloomfield over the oceurrence.

The following from the La Plata Miuer is sensible :—It seems to us that a great deal of time is being wasted by persons who own valuable . mines, in vot getting them patented. We might mention several men who supposed their mines were safe as far as interfering claims are’ concerned, who have got into either expensive lawsuits or serious trouble, not from any discrepancies in their compliance with the law, but by some supposed informality, whereby a shadow of right was given for some one to “jump” the ¢laim, or lecate adjacent ground. The manifest remedy is to procure a patent as soon. as_ possible, and thus prevent any such interferences, for if a mine is once patented, it is impossible to lay any conflicting claim on any part of its ground. We notice that at ‘Mineral Point a great many mines are being patented, even those not considered first-class. This is as it should be. If & mine is worth working the first--assessmerit, itis worth patenting, and if it is for sale, this will increase its value at least one hundred per cent. ->-->— Investigating the Mystery. _ District Attorney Gaylord has alinvestigating the foundation for the ‘Bloomfield mystery” referred to in @ communication written by ‘M.” and published in the Transcript . yesterday. ee There will be preaching mornin and evening atthe A.

The plaintiff in the case, a farmer_by the nameof Keyes, claimed no damages, stated his land was.already ruined, could not be further injured, and modestly asked against all these defendants to stop them from working at all It was understood when the Judge rendered_ his one-sided opinion—so we are informed—that the injunction should not be issued pending the final decision of the case in our Supreme Court. The gravity of this case cannot be overestimated, and in~ case the Supreme Court sustains _dudge Keyser’s opinion, our mining counties will be depopulated and bankrupted, tens of thousands of people will be made destitute, and a humdrea . millions worth of property will be . totally destroyed. If this Judge, . from political motives, now issues . his injunction, it will, of course, } stop all mining in the large district ,covered by the injunction; and ; should the Supreme Court difler ‘from this Granger Judge and over, Tule his opinion, the mining .interest would be damaged beyond hope of recovery, in a large amount, at least’ $250,000, as the entire s2ason will be dying idle until the Supreme Court decides the case, ; We incline to the opinion that our mine owners are not at all aware of the gravity of thisdecision. If. it is enforced by our Supreme Court every mine of every-kind on this coast will . be closed, unless the mine is actually in the lowest part of the méuntains, as this Judge decides virtually and . actually that the person who is fortunate enough to own land below any mine or mill where the water or tailings from it will flow down upon any . land lying below it.’ The only pos. sible result which can follow this de. cision, if®sustained by our higher . Courts, will be either the total. sus. pension of mining within the limits . of our State, or else it will place the . mines at the mercy of those who may . WR lands below, upon which the . tailings must flow, or over which the . water used in or pumped from the . mines must pass. The stoppage-of such a vast pub. dic industry as mining in our State would create a panic throughout the ; coast and the natien,: which would shake our stability werse than an earthquake, and would scatter ruin . and disaster broadcast throughout . our fair land. We call the earnest . attention of all our mine-owners and . workmen to the gravity of this Gian. ger Judge’s.decision, arid if sustained, to its disastrous effect upon eur people at large. If this decision is the law here, it is the law everywhere, unless there are special . Statutes in each State, or of the , United States to the contrary: .

Some rather startling reports regarding a shooting scrape that occurred at the Derbec mine Friday afternoon were rife in this city yesterday. Jt wag reported that hundreds of indignant mivevs were flocking into North Bloomfield from the surrounding country, and that they were determined to take into their own hands the punishment of the shootist, who it was alleged had missed the man be fired at and wounded a little girl standing near. The real facts connected with the affair, as gleaned from Matt. Daily, driver of the stage between this city and Bloomfield, are as _ follows: When the recent reduction of wages took place at the Derbec, Thomas. Barron, who had for a long time been in the Company's employ, quit’ work with the rest of the miners. He resolved not to go to work again at the reduced wayes, and has therefore remained with the ‘‘outs.” A bitter feeling towards Captain Cox, Superintendent of the Derbec, is re-j ported to have sprung up en his part. . ‘he two men met Friday and had some words that resulted in Cox tiring three pistol shots at Barron, none -of which took effect. The Captain was arrested, and his exam‘ination was te have taken. place before A. A. Smith, Esq., yesterday. He claimed that he could prove by reliable witnesses. that Barrou had “made — serious ‘threats against there is no undue excitement at Bloomfield over the oceurrence.

The following from the La Plata Miuer is sensible :—It seems to us that a great deal of time is being wasted by persons who own valuable . mines, in vot getting them patented. We might mention several men who supposed their mines were safe as far as interfering claims are’ concerned, who have got into either expensive lawsuits or serious trouble, not from any discrepancies in their compliance with the law, but by some supposed informality, whereby a shadow of right was given for some one to “jump” the ¢laim, or lecate adjacent ground. The manifest remedy is to procure a patent as soon. as_ possible, and thus prevent any such interferences, for if a mine is once patented, it is impossible to lay any conflicting claim on any part of its ground. We notice that at ‘Mineral Point a great many mines are being patented, even those not considered first-class. This is as it should be. If & mine is worth working the first--assessmerit, itis worth patenting, and if it is for sale, this will increase its value at least one hundred per cent. ->-->— Investigating the Mystery. _ District Attorney Gaylord has alinvestigating the foundation for the ‘Bloomfield mystery” referred to in @ communication written by ‘M.” and published in the Transcript . yesterday. ee There will be preaching mornin and evening atthe A.

The plaintiff in the case, a farmer_by the nameof Keyes, claimed no damages, stated his land was.already ruined, could not be further injured, and modestly asked against all these defendants to stop them from working at all It was understood when the Judge rendered_ his one-sided opinion—so we are informed—that the injunction should not be issued pending the final decision of the case in our Supreme Court. The gravity of this case cannot be overestimated, and in~ case the Supreme Court sustains _dudge Keyser’s opinion, our mining counties will be depopulated and bankrupted, tens of thousands of people will be made destitute, and a humdrea . millions worth of property will be . totally destroyed. If this Judge, . from political motives, now issues . his injunction, it will, of course, } stop all mining in the large district ,covered by the injunction; and ; should the Supreme Court difler ‘from this Granger Judge and over, Tule his opinion, the mining .interest would be damaged beyond hope of recovery, in a large amount, at least’ $250,000, as the entire s2ason will be dying idle until the Supreme Court decides the case, ; We incline to the opinion that our mine owners are not at all aware of the gravity of thisdecision. If. it is enforced by our Supreme Court every mine of every-kind on this coast will . be closed, unless the mine is actually in the lowest part of the méuntains,

as this Judge decides virtually and . actually that the person who is fortunate enough to own land below any mine or mill where the water or tailings from it will flow down upon any . land lying below it.’ The only pos. sible result which can follow this de. cision, if®sustained by our higher . Courts, will be either the total. sus. pension of mining within the limits . of our State, or else it will place the . mines at the mercy of those who may . WR lands below, upon which the . tailings must flow, or over which the . water used in or pumped from the . mines must pass. The stoppage-of such a vast pub. dic industry as mining in our State would create a panic throughout the ; coast and the natien,: which would shake our stability werse than an earthquake, and would scatter ruin . and disaster broadcast throughout . our fair land. We call the earnest . attention of all our mine-owners and . workmen to the gravity of this Gian. ger Judge’s.decision, arid if sustained, to its disastrous effect upon eur people at large. If this decision is the law here, it is the law everywhere, unless there are special . Statutes in each State, or of the , United States to the contrary: . Hence, it not only affects us, but also . every mine in the Union where anyone may own land-below a mine or reducing works. . County Court.
