Will Soon Be on the Market $40, 000 Spent In Machinery and Development. MT. ANGEL, June 12. Oregon at last has a real coal mine, whence genuine bituminous coal of highest fuel power and coking quality will soon be ex tracted in-commercial quantities. The property Is located at Scotts Mills, six miles back of Mt. Angel, and only 43 miles from Portland. A railroad has been surveyed direct to the mine, and it has been known for some time that the Southern Pacific and the Oregon Electric have both been casting eager eyes toward the heavy lonage In sight. Although over $40,000, it is said, has been expended in machinery and devel opment work, the full significance of the find has not been realized until now, as the mining- company avoided spreading' information as to the quality of the coal. Leases were quietly se cured for 1000 acres over the vein and the company acquired by purchase nine acres within the village of Scotts Mills itself. The water rights of Butte Creek were also acquired for power. Scotts Mills is located on Butte Creek, which is the boundary line between Clackamas and Marion counties. Coal justtaken from thetmtne has been used for domestic purposes in Scotts Mills, with highly satisfactory results, and it was learned that only a small quantity was all that was needed for the hottest fire. Tests and demonstrations, it is said, have proven that for steaming and heating pur poses the coal possesses an efficiency even higher than that from Rock Springs and Wellington, up till now the highest-priced coal in general use In Oregon. A Portland fuel company, it is said, has been making strenuous efforts to contract for the entire output of the mine. The output will shortly be 200 tons a day. according to the report from the men at the property, and can be immensely increased owing to the accessibility of the vein. The company which has acquired the land and leases and is installing the equipment 1 the Oregon Diamond Coal. Mining & De velopment Company, of Portland, with a capital stock of $500,000. It is re ported that aV considerable -number of bankers, merchants, professional men and wage-earners are among- the stock holders; word as the nature' of the find and the plans of the management having been passed around quietly from mouta- to mouth and the stock snapped up eagerly as an investment. C. T. EaTourneau. of Portland, well kno as an experienced mining man, I? known to have investigated the proposition thoroughly, and as a result of what he learned is said to have ac quired an interest and taken a place on the board of directors. A report from a Portland assayer Is said to be to the effect that the Scotts Mills coal Is the best he ever found in Oregon. FLAG DAY IS TOMORROW 132d Anniversary of Adoption of Stars and Stripes.

It was learned here today from an excellent authority that tho action of Spain in endeavoring to ob tain the payment by Cuba of her propor tion of the Spanish national debt, results in the following conditions: During the negotiations of the treaty ot Paris, the Spanish commissioners en deavored to get the United States to as sume this obligation.' This was refused. and Spain, In renouncing her sovereignty over Cuba, did not epeclflcajly abandon her monetary claims, which were repre sented by boids largely In the hands- of French holders. The validity of this claim expired 10 years after the signing of the treaty. Hence, Spain, for the sake of French bondholders. In 1908, Instructed Gaytan de Ayala. her Minister here, to renew the negotiations for the payment of the debt. Spain had no serious expec tation that this indebtedness would be cancelled, but her purpose' was to im press the bondholders with her firm in tention not to abandon their claim and to renew its vitality for an additional 10 years. The intimation that Senator De Ayala's recall was due to his failure to press this claim, are today reiterated. It is be lieved, also, that the Minister was re lieved of his duties further to impress "the bondholders, but the actual reason is de clared to have been ill-health. It is probable there will be offered a resolution in Congress next Monday to cancel the agreement made between Gov ernor Magoon and Senor De Ayala under the terms of which Cuba undertook to purchase for $300,000 in three annual In stallments, the Spanish cannon left in the fortress of Cuba, and claimed by Spain under the terms of the peace pro tocol. , PANIC ON SINKING VESSEL Two Carboj-9 of Acid Break and Add to Peril. PHILADELPHIA, June 12. An ex plosion In the engine-room' of the steamboat Shearwater on the Delaware River, off this city, today Imperiled the lives of about 50 persons, most of them young women. They were taken from the disabled vessel by a Philadelphia fireboat. The Shearwater sank. The Shearwater was backing out from a wharf at Arch street when the cargo became displaced by bumping against the wharf, causing the vessel to list. The women passengers became panic-stricken, and rushed for life preservers. To add to the excitement, two car boys of acid broke, the fluid running down into the engine-room, forcing the engineer to leave his post, without shut ting off the steam. The captain, fearing that his vessel was slowly settling down, blew his whistles. A dozen boats went to his aid and the ipassengers were rescued. The Shearwater floated downstream and sank.
