THE AMSTERDAM WORLDS FAIR.

A Zeehandelaar having been ap-
pointed agent for Idaho at the Worlds
Exposition which is to open at Am
sterdam about the first of May of this
year, all Idaho mine-owners who wish
to have their properties represented
should send specimens to him without
delay, at Salt Lake City, Utah.
There is no denying that the bene-
Tits to accrue to Idaho from proper
representation at that great worlds
fair are very great. Amsterdam is
situated in ono Of the richest coun-
tries in the world, where $1OO,OOO,O 1000
in United States bonds are held and
negotiated, and where there is an
abundance of idle capital awaiting
Investment.
The time allowed for the collection
OF specimens is, however, too short for
this season of the year; so that the
most that we can hope for is that the
managers of what few mines are being
worked this winter will send speci-
mems of their ores to Mr.. Zeehandelaar.
All such specimens will be for.
warded to Salt Lake City free of
charge by the Pacific Express Com
pany and the railroad.

The Bill to Provide Funds to Erect

%~0 Dill W fTOVI0o FUn0S TO Erect
Them Passes the Council.
The bill permitting Alturas county
to issue $4,000 in scrip for the cree
ton OF a courthouse at HALEY was
read third time under a suspension
of the rules in the Council, few DAYS
ago, and passed at the same session.
1t went to the House, where Repre-.
sentative Wilson was awaiting it. and
has most likely passed there also. If
such was the case the signature of
Governor Neil will render it opera
tive. The bill was introduced by
Colonel Wall, and his action is highly
commended everywhere. A public
courthouse will be of great advantage
to the county, and will save in rental
more than the interest on the amount
invested.
The ncws OF the passage of the bill
was not we'll received in Bellevue. In
fact, it caused quite an outburst of
indignation, and petitions protesting
against the passage of the bill were
at once put in circulation and signed.
But these will be too late to do any
harm, as the bill has doubtless re-
ceived the Governors signature bv
this time.

SALE OF THE SOUTHEASTERN.
The New York Syndicate Said to be in
BarlOw's shoes.
Sr AIRANs Vt Sent. /.

ST. ALBANs, VT, Sept l.
Two members of the New York syndicat.
which is negotiating for the purchase of the
Southeastern railroad, made a flying visit to
St. Adams last evening, and had conference
with Barlow, as result OF which certain
papers were executed, which, 1t is said, have
the effect to place the syndicate in Barlow's
shoes. and decide the question of purchase,
Several members of the syndicate have been
in Montreal for some days past. and they are
supplied with letters of credit from New
York banks to an amount amply sufficient to
cover the purchase. The delay in consum-
nation has been caused by the attitude of
some of the Southeastern directors, notably
Chatfee, who is understood to be Canadian
Pacific man. and who has publicly stated that
Barlow had no interest to sell in the road
and could transfer title. The fact is that
Barlow owns large majority of all the stock
and bonds of the line. and can transfer the
same, merely subject to the payment of the
debts, tor which the bonds are pledged ana
the stock attached. Ii is positively stated, on
his authority. that no legal or contract i'm
pedlment exists to prevent his conveying an
absolute title to the property, subject to the
payment of the debt, which is just what the
syndicate expe cts under the agreement with
it that he would so transfer under certain
conditions. The syndicate has been endeav-
oring to come 10 an amicable understanding
with the directors and creditors, but this has
been opposed by secret influences, evidently
emanating from the Canadian Pacific Pass
umpsic. Boston, Concord & Montreal and
other interests which either desire to get the
road themselves, or are afraid it will tall into
hostile hands if the syndicate gets possession,
and are especially afraid of the sale resulting
in the Grand Trunk and Central Vermont
gettiug control. There is good reason today
tor the belief that the syndicate has aban-
doned its attempts at an amicatle arrangement
with these parties, aud taken the step which
places it in Barlow's shoes. fully prepared
for fight to maintain its position should il
prove necessary.

The Match Between SIade and Mitchell
The Latter's Back r Said to

ATCHIsoN. Kan, Sept, l.
The fact that the fight between Slade and
Mitchell has been declared off causes much
comment here. The general opinion among
sporting men is that Madden, Mitchell's
hacker, was determined to get the fight de-
clared off because he had come to the con-
clusion that his man was no match for Slade,
who is badly disappointed. Slade. his man.
ager, Rice and trainer, Brighton, are still
here and Mace is expected. 1t is reported
that Rice says he will back Slade for $1,000
to $4,000 against Mitchell. 1t is evident.
however, that all the parties are afraid of the
Kansas authorities. the law in that State
making prize fighting pententiary offence.
Slade received letter from John l.. Sullivan
recently, in which the latter stated that he
intended to back the Maori heavily and was
confident of his success.

to go into effect at the same time, prohibiting

effort was made to reform. the branch road
would come here and that the company
would at once commence the erection of per
manent and expensive buildings. In the
