A MINT SENSATION.

The San Francisco Call contains a
sensational account Of an alleged at
tempt to rob the United States branch
mint BY means OF underground work
ings. According to this narrative. the
would be robbers attempted to gain
access to the main sewer on Mission
street and follow it up to the mint,
where they intended to run a tunnel
from the sewer, penetrate the base
ment wall and thus gain access to the
vaults. 4 few months since two men
rented the basement Of the building
at IT'S Mission street, and immediate
ly took possession thereof. They paid
& months rent in advance, and for
sometime nothing was thought Of the
matter. At length, however, the Gu
rlosity Of the neighbors was aroused
by the apparent secrecy with which
the newcomers conducted their bust
ness. When asked what they were
doing, they said they were working
on an '~sinyention." Recently both.
men disappeared, leaving rent unpaid,
and the door Of the basement was
burst open by the proprietor. Tt was
found that a tunnel, a foot and a half
square, had been dug under the street
to a distance Of sixteen feet, in thedi-
rection Of the main sewer.

appearances are equally encouraging:
there has been a very general upward
tendency and the gold fundhas stead

It is said that Mr.. Hewitt Of New
York il again engaged in the prepar-
alton Of Il bill to remove the duties on
raw materials, and that he expects his
bill will be passed. It is said that an
attempt will be made to present the
bill that it will meet with the approx
al Of Mr.. Carlisle and other promi-
nent democrats, who have heretofore
been unable to agree upon any pro
posed measure for tariff reduction.

WESTERN CATTLE MEN.

Recent shipments of eastern Wash
ington and Oregon cattle to England,
says the WalIa Walla Union, have
awakened considerable interest, par.
ticularly among trade competitors.
These cattle, it appears, We're driven
eastward and finally shipped on board
vessels at Duluth. A British trade
paper, commenting upon this ship
ment, states that the dead-meat has
proved a failure to all intents and
purposes. Not only does the meat
lose in quality, but the weight shrinks
by more than 6 per cent. The live
cattle trade, however, it regards as a
far more serious matter. That Wyo-
ming territory alone sends from its
borders nearly enough meat to salts
~ the requirements Of London, and
now that the northern system Of rail
ways is finished transit is comparative
ly an easy thing. Three-year Old bull
locks, weighing 1000 pounds each,
can be bought at railroads points in
Montana and Dakota for SS31 per head.
Transportation from Montana to Lon
don adds S22.S0 to this figure, and at
these rates 1t will be found that in
this trade OF supplying London with
from the great prairies Of the
Northwest there is an enormous and
profitable field for enterprise" The
low figure is arrived at by direct ship
ments, without the intervention Of
brokers, while cattle which are taken
some other ource Of supply
pass through half a dozen hands.

A PRESS dispatch from Helena, says:

"Work has been commenced by the
Union Pacific replacing the narrow
gauge bridges Of the Utah Northern
with standard gauge bridges Of the
most substantial pattern. This is to
be done along the line from Pocatillo
to Garrison. From this the fact is
apparent that the Utah Northern is to
be made a standard gauge between
those points, and the rumor is gener-
ally confirmed that the road will be
extended to Helena"
It is reasonable to suppose that if
the utah Northern build to Helena,
they will also extend their line into
northern Montana SC as to tap the IA
nous Sand Coulee coal fields.

fanatic, none will deny, and that he was
insane, many will believe, but just what
the Dominion Government will accom-
plish by his execution ia very much
conjecture. His rebellion was not In
the nature Of treason, and was simply a
revolt for the benefit Of his people and
his followers in demand that certain
promises made them should be fulfilled.
His attempts were fruitless, and the
Government, no doubt, hung him in or
