road on the stock basis, as all interested would

Will have to be paid before the stockholders get u

VIII President Waters please explain why of
the TWO plans one so manifestly Instantaneous
was adopted?
IL the legitimate stockholders do not wish to see
their interests reckessly confiscated and the COM
pletion OF the road endangered, it behooves them
to take some united action to protect their prop

gratullous gift OF stock to Mr.. Gilmor is said to
be Illegal, and legal proceedings would perhaps
prevent contamination of that outrage. F.

San Carlos.

The editor of the Globe Chronicle has visited San Carlos Agency, and reports the following concerning the combination 10 secure the coal and minerals on the reservation:
 We have It from good authority that company has been organized in Boston, Mass, under the leadership of Major Safely, tor the purpose of prospecting and developing the min eral deposits of the Indian reserva- tiOn; that the Department of the h. ierior at Washington is expected 10 ratify the following stipulatiOns That this company, in consideration of lease of all the mineral deposits of the Reservation will give to the Indian Department one sixth of all the metaliferous ores, and twelve and a. half cents per ton for all the coal ex- trected from the coal fields on the Reservation, the proceeds of which are to be expended towards the sup port of the Indians on said Reserya- tiOu.
 We were informed by Col. Tiffany that the ferty or flfty dollars paid a few days ago to each of the Chiefs of the Reservation was simply to prove to them the good faith of the com pany Tn this compact, and that here after they are to receive nothing from the company, only as it is paid to them through the Bureau of the IL- dian Department.
 Major Safely has gone East to con summate this audacious enterprise with the Boston company and the Department at Washington. Colonel Tiffany denies all compliclty in thIs grand scheme, and informed us that Major Safely is the principal actor in the whole matter.
 These are the facts as far as we could get them from Colonel Tiffany and one or two others who are most likely to know just what has been Gcne.
 We cannot vouch for these state mcnts, only as beng faithful to our infoTmants.

As it is well known Messrs. w.

 By some means or other couple ef Iexicans became possessed Of one of tlem. and started out on a tour Of speculation with it. About the first place they struck was the Central Tel ephone Office, where it was offered for two dollars. IL seems they had their own ideas of its value, and would not reduce the price any below that figure.
 The operator at the switch gently tapped Mayor Carr's telephone and inliInated what was going on. The Mayor in turn intimated to Tom Pat tersun he better ante round and see the fun.
