THE CALL FOR SILVER.
Uncle Sam Enters the Field as n Huver-
Methods OF Purchase.

WASHINGTON, Aug, 2.--The treasury
department has taken the first step to-
ward giving effect TO the last silver act
by the preparation of circular which
will be issued tomorrow, announcinp
that on and after the 18th instant offers
lor the sale OF silver bullion in lots of not
less than 10000 ounces, and delivery free
OF expense to the government at any
specified coinage mint, will be received
either by telegraph or letter, for consid-
Grafton at noon Mondays, Wednesdays
and FRIDAYS of each week, except legal
holidays. All bids are to be addressed
Director of the Mint, Treasury Depart
ment, Washington" They are to state
the quantity offered in fine ounces, the
price per fine ounce, and the mint AT
which the bullion will be delivered,
Bidders will be notified by telegram
OF the acceptance or rejection of the of.
fers.
The right to reject any or all bids is re-
served and also to accept any portion of
the amount offered.
The delivery of purchase must be
completed within ten DAYS after the ac-
ceptance of the offer. When the bars
bear the stamp of well known refneries
such approximate value will be paid pend
ing melting and assay, as may I've regarded
safe and proper.
When bullion is purchased of a charac-
ter to require parting or refining the usual
mint charges for those operations will be
paid by the seller.
No bars weighing over 200 ounces will
be received. No silver coins except un-
current and mutilated coins of the United

San Luis VALLEY Road,

ALAMosA, Colo, Aug. 2.-According to
the terms of the contract, by tomorrow
thirty miles of the grade of the Alamosa
X Villa Grove branch of the Rio Grande
road will be finished. The remainder of
the 54 miles will he done in two weeks.
Within 70 days from the letting OF the
contract the entire construction of the
roadbed will be finished, which is the
most rapid railroading ever done in the
Rockies.
Further delay has been encountered in
the commencement Of laying the track
from this end. This was caused by the
difficulty in getting the ties down the Rio
Grande river. Ten days ago work began
in throwing ties into the river above
Wagon Wheel Gap, and they are to be
taken out at the South Fork, where
boom has been put across the stream. AS
yet but few have reached the lower point,
while all above there the river is full of
ties.

THE ARID LANDS ISSUE,
No Hope for Aid from Congress-Priyate
Capital Must Develop the Water.

WASHINGTON, Aug. MANY petitions
are being received from individuals and
organizations in Colorado urging upon
congress the necessity of granting either
lands or money to aid in constructing
reservoirs. In reply to these petitions
Senator Teller writes the following letter
Under the present circumstances it
will be impossible to get congress to do
anything in the way of making direct ap-
preparations for irrigation. Those who
feel an interest in this subject had sup
posed they had secured the entering
wedge in this direction when they
succeeded in having surveys order
ed for the determination of res
ervoir and canal sites, but owing to the
construction put upon this law by the
attorney general and the interior depart
ment, which construction makes it with
draw all arid lands from settlement, the
subject OF aid for irrigation has be-
come very unpopular, and L fear it will
on this account be very difficult to make
further progress in this direction for scme
time to come.
"As matter of fact the people of the
east do not understand what irrigation
means or appreciate its importance. 1t
is also fact that there has come to be
very great prejudice against grants of all
kinds. Taking all these facts into con
sideration | know whereof | speak when
| say it would be out of the question to
get any matter through congress aiding
you in that respect.
"You have probably recently observed
in the newspapers that the interior de-
partment has set itself squarey against
grants OF arid lands which are worthless
as they stand for reservoir sites, not
withstanding the building of these reser-
voirs would materially enhance the
value of the adjacent government
lands. This means that the sd-
ministration is opposed to taking any steps
in that direction at present without the
Of the department, and with
a general feeling such as have outlined
there would be no chance of doing any
thing in congress now, and feel that to
attempt it would be waste of time on
my part, and to hold out the idea that
anything could be done would merely de-
ceive you and your friends.
"Your best plan, therefore, is to enlist
private capital in the enterprise. As for
myself, | feel that the government could

AFTER A, LITTLE BALANCE.

The Last Payment ON the Allegheny Court
House Wanted By the Contractors
They Bring Suit for It-How IL Came to
be Withheld Till This Time.
Norcross Brothers, of Massachusetts,, the
contractors who erected the new Court House,
have entered suit in the United States Cir
cult Court against Allegheny county, to re-
cover SC, ,S45 sc, a balance due for work on
the Court House and Jail. They state that
the County Commissioners had issued to
them a warrant for this amount, but after
ward notified the County Controller not to
counterslgn it, and the Treasurer not to pay it.
The reason given for this was that Norcross
Brothers owed money to subcontractor, and
the Commissioners withheld this payment, the
final one, under clause IN the agreement
authorizing them to withhold money until all
work and material on the county buildings
should be paid for.
The plaintiffs however, state that they owe
no money for work or materials on the build
ings, everything having been paid. The alleged
claim against them is that Otis Brothers. TO
whom. though, they owe nothing. Norcross
Brothers sub-let certain work to Frederick
Tudor, who, without consulting them, sub-let
to Otis Brothers. Tudor failed. owing Otis
Brothers money for the work, and they now
wish to collect from Norcross Brothers. Charles
H. Mckee, attorney for OTIS Brothers, and
son of County Commissioner Mckee, notified
and asked them not to settle with Norcross
Brothers until 1t was paid. Commissioners
Mercer and Stokeley at that time refused to ac-
cede to the request, but subsequently the pay
ment of the warrant was stopped.
Norcross Brothers now sue for the amount,
S. S45 Sc, all that is owing on the county build
ings. asserting that the county has no right to
withhold the money from them.
