Silver Legislation in America Al
fects Securities in Europe.
LONDON. July 15.-The signing of the
silver bill by President Harrison, al
though it was looked upon as fore
gone conclusion, had very stimulating
effect upon prices in the stock ex-
change. Bar silver, was, of course, the
first to feel the influence of the presi-
dents confirmation of the silver legis-
lation of congress, and at once rose to
so pence an ounce, selling price it has
not attained for several years. Ameri-
can securities also took on a degree OF
sympathetic activity, and increased
orders to buy were cabled to New York.
The increase III the price of silver is by
no means to be regarded as permanent,
however. The practical effect OF the
new American silver law has been
pretty thoroughly discounted, and the
opinion is general that the present &C
tivity in silver bullion will not continue
long, and that the price will gradually
recede to point little if any above the
figures which have ruled for the last
year.

A MOVING MOUNTAIN.

1t Is Moving Slowly But Steadily
Down the River.
A travelling mountain is found at the
cascades of the Columbia. 1t is triple
peaked mass of dark brown basalt, six
or eight miles in length where it fronts
the river, and rises to height of almost
1000 feet above the water.
That it is in motion is the last thought
which would be likely to suggest itself
to the mind of any one passing it; yet
it is we'll established fact that this en-
tire mountain is moving slowly but
steadily down the river, as if it had de-
Iiberate purpose some time in the future
to dam the Columbia and form great
lake from the Cascades to the Dales.
The Indian traditions indicate immense
movements OF the mountains here
abouts, long before white men came to
Oregon, and the early settlers, ipml-

land, gave the above described noun

standing deep in the water on this

An Explanation of the Attachment
Between Victoria and jamie Ely.
The Marchioness of Ely, who has just
died, was the dearest friend of Queen
Victoria, if a queen can ever be SAID to
possess friends, The Queen became
deeply attached to her at the time of the
crazed with grief, the royal household
not knowing what to do or how to act,
Lady Ely, with true womanly tact,
carried the little Princess Beatrice to
the queens bedside, and laid the child
in her mothers arm. Since that hour
"Janie Ely" has been the close compan-
ion of her majesty, who confided in her
faithful judgment and sound, good sense
without regret for thirty years.

Cans in New Mexico.

WASHINGTON, July 15.-The details
of the outrages committed during the
past four months in New Mexico by
white caps have been reported to the

nightly patrol the vicinity of Las Vegas

fences, houses, bridges and crops. The
motive for their depredations is stated
to be a kind of agrarian discomfort,
which maintains that the lands belong
to the people by right, and
that they are deprived of its
ownership, and obliged to work
for insufficient wages. This statement
has been referred by the secretary to
Gov. Prince, of New Mexico. for in
vestigation and report. The governor
is also requested to make suggestions as
to the proper course to be pursued to
correct these evils. If necessary, United
States troops will be sent to the terri

Ready to Agree.
CHICAGO, July 15.-The general man
ayers of the Western railroads met to-
day to consider the proposed advance
in eastbound rates from Missouri river
doints Oh cattle, grain. provisions and
other articles on which rates have been
cut since Jan. 1. The object which is
broadened by discussion until it con-
cluded through rates to and
from points beyond the Missouri
river and also rates from St.
Louis, St. Paul and Mississippi river
points. The Chicago & Alton opposed
an advance in cattle and grain rates
from Southwestern Missouri river points
until through rates from points beyond
should be adjusted practically on the
basis of the combined locals. A COM
mittee of seven was finally appointed,
with A. F. Walker as chairman, to can
vass the situation and find out just what
can be done, its report to be made to an
adjourned meeting tomorrow morning.
If the Rock Island and Atchison COM
panies consent to the establishment of
through rates by way of Kansas City on
the basis proposed by the Alton, it is
believed that there will be no great
difficulty in advancing rates.
