MINING.
A Promising Year fer Mines and
Mining.

The Salt Lake Tribune says tn,
men of capital in the East are sick o
investments in western lands. Thou
sands of them wish, with all their
hearts, that they had back the money
paid out in purchases and advanced in
loans. So, also, there are not many
railroads that are paying interest on
their Indebtedness, and capital is
fighting shy Of such investments ex-
cept in certain favored places, as is
seen by the dealing OF the New York
Stock Exchange every day. Our dis
patches recently showed the enor-
nous sums which will be paid out for
interest and in dividends during the
present month. The owners
OF that mighty aggregate will
want to reinvest their money.
Where will they find a field?
Should reasonable legislation be had
on silver, and should silver advance as
its friends believe it would with such
legislation, it is not unreasonable to
believe that more activity would be
seen in the mining field than has been
seen Tor many years. Indeed, the
symptoms OF Something akin to
mining boom are already in the air.
More strangers are inquiring about
available mining properties than have
been for a long time before. The
education which the country has been
going through on the silver question
during the past six months has turned
many mind to thoughtfully reflect
upon the cleanness OF the mining busi-
ness, and how different it is in its
effects upon a community from any
other work. Our advice to miners is
to get their properties in the best
possible form, to hold OH to them and
work them if they can, but il for want
OF capital they cannot do this, then for
them to get all the ore in sight that
they possibly can, for mines are no
more sold on what they may contain,
but upon what they actually do contain.
The promises Of the year for saines
and mining are good.

LOCKED UP.
Speculation In Stocks, Commedities. .Hnd
Especially Silver Bullion, Has Made
Money Very Tight and Hard to Dig
With Increased Percentage.
Enormous Imports to Get Foreign Goods
Before the Tariff Bill Passes Has over
dawn Bank Accounts and Increased
Demands fer Discounts

NEW YoKK, August 25.-R- g. Dun 4 Co.'S
weekly review of trade says:
The signs of monetary disturbance which
was noticed in previous reviews was not mis-
leading. At Philadelphia money was tight;
at Chicago in strong demand; and st. Louis
unusually scarce at to 8 per cent; at New
Orleans tight; at Denver and st. Paul in
good demand, and at Milwaukee more active
at per cent; firm at Kansas City, and
rather tight at Detroit at per cent. The
obvious and only sufficient relief is the Equi-
datlon of money speculations in stocks, in
wheat, corn, oats, cotton, leather, hides,
coffee, wool, and especially silver bullion,
which have locked up enormous sums. In
silver alone. SO, 0O0, 900 has been locked up
to wait for higher prices. In grain several
times as much, and in other products many
millions, while the condition Of the market
for securities was indicated by the fall, aver
aging about 81 per share in q single day on
active stocks, when money became tight. In
addition the enormous imports intended 70
anticipate the tariff bill, have virtually
locked up for an indefinite time many mil
lions paid for goods and in duties on them.
The volume of legitimate business through
out the country continues Ia exceeding
that of last year by 10 per cci... outside oil
New York, and the desire TO market products
quickly as prices rise, causes greater demand
for currency from the country than usual.
During the past week the treasury has paid out
only SCI, 600 more than it has taken in.
Wheat closes 4 cents higher than a week ago,
but the advance was much greater before the
break came. And oats declined 2X, but
pork products were shade stronger. Coffee
and sugar were held without a break. but
cotton sells 5-16ths on sales of 10000 bales.
an6 oil declined 81 cents. The reports from
other cities. with very few exceptions, indi-
cate that q larger trade than ever before is
in progress, with satisfactory collections and
a brighter outlook. Crop reports are less
discouraging. though the yield must fall be-
low early anticipations as to grain. New
Orleans reports very encouraging prospects
as to cotton, and Galveston as well, but
Jacksonville reports dull trade and dis
courag1ng outlook. At st. Louis business
is of a fair volume, but somewhat affected
by injury to crops. At Kansas City trade is
healthy, particularly in live stock and pack
ing. Milwaukee reports that crops will
average fairly, and Minneapolis mills have a
large output of -four at advancing prices. In
general the condition of legitimate business
is encouraging, unless monetary pressure or
labor controversies interfere.
The business failures occurring through
out the country during the past seven days,
number 1872, as compared with 1877 last
week. For the corresponding week of last
year the figures were 2O6.

Monster Mass Meeting.

ALBANY, n. Y. August T.-The monster
mass meeting held in the rink drew larger
crowd to that place than has ever before en-
tered the building at one time. Mr.. T. v.
Powderly entered the hall amid enthusiastic
and prolonged applause. A. W. Wright, of
the executive committee of the Knights of
Labor, Thomas &cGune and others made
addresses.
When Mr.. Powderly rose to speak he was
received with tumult of applause. The
strike was already won, he said, and he pro-
claimed it a victory. No man could say they
were wrong. Justice was with the men and
with justice came public sentiment, and that
was what was wanted, for some day in the near
future that public sympathy would knock at
the state capitol and demand justice. Mr..
Powderly then asked if any member of the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers was
present. If there was one, he spoke to him,
and he called upon that order to array them
selves on the side of labor, despite their IN
worthy chief. It was not until Arthur took
charge that such nefariOus dolngs were made
public. The order must soon show its handf
despite its bribed chief.

detail. In general discussion, Sweeney,

quickly developed that a decided difference
Of opinion was entertained concerning the
advisability of the federation taking up the
cause of the knights. Everybody present
vas agreed upon the main question, that the
cause of the knights was a just one that
Powderly had throughout pursued a wise and
prudent course, and that Mr. Webb was
wholly and solely to blame for the present
situation by his persistent refusal to consent
to an smicable adjustment of the difficulties.
But whether, granting all these facts. the way
was open for the federation to take charge of
the battle flags and whether, supposing 1t so
ordered. the supreme council would be sup
ported by the order behind it, we're questions
upon which serious doubts were expressed
BY at least four of the dozen delegates. As
the discussion proceeded and the portion of
the various documents already presented were
read and reread, the debate assumed comph-
Gated form. The knights, however, were not
without their champions and several stirring
speeches were made, In which the council
was urged to display its manhood by stand
ing shoulder to shoulder with Powderly. Il

Proposed Tnrlfr Retnliations.

WASHINGTON, D. c., August Ex-senator
Edmunds offered the following amendment
to the tariff bill, which was referred to the
sommittee on finance.
''That whenever the president of the United
States shall be satisfied that a sugar produc-
ing country, whose sugar Is exported into the
United States has abolished its duties or
taxes on the importation of the principal
agricultural products of the United States,
he may by proclamation diminish, or remit
the tar imposed by law on sugar or any
grade of sugar produced in and exported
directly from any such country into the
United States, as long as such products of
the United States are admitted free of duty
or tax into such country; and no longer"
Mr.. Edmunds also gave notice of another
amendment which he intended to propose to
to the tariff bill, authorizing the president,
whenever he shall be satisfied that unjust
determinations are made by or under the
authority of any foreign country against the
importation of any product of the United
States to make proclamation excluding pro
ducts of that country from importation into
the United States
he said that this amendment was Identical
In all respects with one of the sections OF the
meat bill which had passed the senate two or
three times almost unanimously, but had
never gone any further than the senate.

beaten their way from Kansas City. They
left the train at the city limits and started
down town They met with an old man who
had but one leg, whom they demanded to per-
form certain antics for their amusement,
which he did at the muzzles of two large
pistols in the hands of the lads. Becoming
wearied with the old man's pleading for
mercy, they knocked him down with a SIX
shooter, giving HIM several hard blows over
the head and face after he had fallen, max
ing number of ugly and painful wounds.
They then proceeded towards the city, with
pistols in hand, drawing them on several par
ties and making them stand" They did
not tarry long in the business part of the
city after reaching it. but soon left, going to
a strip of woods on the outskirts of the city,
where they we're found and arrested by Sher-
III Ware and Marshal Boiling and placed in
jail, charged with unlawfully carrying pis-

Interesting railway statistics.

WASHINGTON, D. c., August S.-The stat
istician Of the interstate commerce commits
sion has completed his second annual report
TO the commission The report covers the
transactions of 6O9 roads and shows the ope-
rations of 153, 1886 miles of line.
The gross earnings for the year, exclusive
of rental of track, yards and terminals, were
$685., SIG, 129, or Sc, go per mile of line, and
the operating expenses, exclusive OF rental
of tracks, yards and terminals, $644. zoe, 701,
or s., 2O5 per mile of line. This leaves a net
income from operations of $500, los, 42S, or
$2,O67 per mile of line. After deductions
are made for fixed charges, the final net in
come for all the roads in the United States
was S101, 1888, 736, or 1851 per mile of line.
The total amount of stock is shown to be
81, 81, 19O, 100, of which S847, IA, S99 are

Railroad Matters.

CHIcHGo, August 29.-The general mana
gers of the western roads concluded their
conference concerning the order of the inter

rates of grain from the Missouri river and
points beyond. The Rock Island and the
Chicago & Alton still refuse to join the other
lines in fighting the order, but they changed
their minds about putting the commissions
rates into effect September IA. Instead of
that they will give formal notice of their in
tention to the chairman of the Western
Freight association and wait until it has been
acted upon at the next regular meeting of
that association, to be held Septemer 9.
Then it will require further ten days no.
tice before the rates can be put in force. This
course was decided upon because the roads
held that it would be a violation of the recent
agreement to adopt any other rates than those
agreed upon August l, until the September
meeting,
