orally and by locality and residence
they are associated with the van
quished. Will the experiment which
failed elsewhere succeed here? Can
not the black race exist as citizens OF
the United States with the Caucas-
sian race? And if not, why not? ?"
Fred Douglas, the most illustri-
GUS living represen tative OF the negro
race (greater, | think, by his Caucas-
sian reinforcement than by his Afri-
can blood) once said to me that he
thought as prejudice and social and
political antagonist disappeared, the
races would become homogeneous.
| do not agree with him. There is
no natural affinity bet ween the races.
This solution of the problem is i'm
possible. The relations between the
sexes in the time of slavery were
compulsory The hybrid was the
product of relations between white
fathers and black mothers and never
between black fathers and white
mothers, and the inference from that
result is the conclusion of that ques-
ton. Such solution, in my judg-
ment would perpetuate the vices of
both races and the virtues of neither.
There is no blood poison SO fatal as
the adulteration of races"
After praising the colored people
for their fidelity to the South during
the war he said: 1T seems incredi-
bic that gratitude should not have
defended and shielded them from the
hideOus and Undesirable wrongs
and crimes of which they have been
for quarter of century the guiltless
and unresisting victims. The same
impulse which made them loyal to
their masters throughout the war
has made them faithful to their de-
livererS since. Their allegiance to the
party of Lincoln and Grant is persist
ent and answering. Their instincts
are more infallible than reason.
They have voted with their friends"
In conclusion Mr.. Ingalls, said that
race antagonism applied only to the
colOred man in the South when he
desired to vote the republican ticket.
IF the colored men there were all
democrats, the race question would
be over Four solutions of the prob
lem, he said, had been suggest ed :
Immigration, determination, alb
sorption and disfranchisement, but
there was still fifth solution which
had never been tried and that solu-
ton was justice.
"Iappeal to the South Che exclaim-
ed to try the experiment of justice;
stack your guns, open your ballot
boxes, register V our votes, blacks and
whites, and if after the experiment
has been fairly and honestly tried, it
appears that the African race is in
capable of civilization, l will pledge
myself to consult with you about
some measure of solving the race
problem, but until then nothing can
bedone. The citizenship of the negro
must be absolutely recognized; his
right to vote must be admitted and
the ballots that he casts must be
counted

WASHINGTON, Dec. I3.-At the meet
ing of the Republican senatorial caucus
committee today to devise a scheme of
financial relief, after discussing the subject
for an hour the committee referred it to a
subcommittee composed OF Senators Sher-
man, Allison. Aldrich, Plumb and Teller.
This was lone in the hope that it could
agree upon some definite project.
aSsvrney Ueherai Miner Today re-
turned to the president sill papers in
regard to the Columbian Worlds Fair,
with a statement that they met all the
legal requirements necessary for the
presidents proclamation. The president
will investigate the financial suficiency
OF the subscriptions before issuing a
proclamation.
The president today sent to the senate
the nomination of William U. Norton for
probate Judge OF Garfield county. Utah.
The cabinet meeting Yesterday con-
sidered the financial condition OF the
country. and, as a result, the president,
1t is understood, will send a message to
congress next week suggesting as q
Measure of relief the enactment of legis
latIon for the issue of additional currency
based on the increased silver purchases.

GOULD'S GREAT HEAD.
Chances for a Pool Not so
Flattering Now.
The Colored Individual in
Jays WoOdpile
May Cause Another Gentle

GouId's Pooling Scheme.

'ptNhA bHaHhANh ~ IA Ltadti-
CHICAGO, Dec. 13.-Jay Gould's
chances for a pool were more fattering a
week ago han they are today. The more
Cords plan is considered the more the
conservative Western presidents become
convinced that there is a colored individ-
ual in Jay Gould's woodpilc. HIS placing
the Union Pacific under the same general
management as the Missouri Pacific has
made them suspicious and several of them
rave come to the conclusion that the
Union Pacific is to be MIXED dry in the
interest of the Missouri Pacific, and when
the object has been accomplished by
Gould he will again drop his interest in
the Union Pacific. Another thing that
created an impression is that jay Gould
is not animated by the best of motives in
urging the formation of a trust
or pool is his acquiring a large
if not a controlling interest in the
Richmond Terminal. By this acquisition
Gould secures a connection with his Mis-
sour Pacific at Cairo. ILL.,, and Arkansas
City which will enable him to direct the
bulk OF the Missouri Pacific through
freight from points west OF the Missouri
river by way OF the above named points.
The proposed pool is not to extend south
ofSt. Louis, and consequently all freight on
Gould's Missouri Pacific direct by way of
Cairo and Arkansas City and the Rich
mond Terminal will be outside of the pool
and at the same time he will demand a
large proportion Of the traffic in the pool,
although be proposes to keep all traffic
the Missouri Pacific commands out OF the
pool by sending it by way OF Cairo AID
Arkansas CRY but expects to get a full
proportion OF the traffic commanded by
the Missouri Pacific competitors. For
these reasons it is probable that the pool
ing proposition will not go through, but
that instead another "G~entlemens'
agreement will be ad ptcd. which is to
cover all the existing western associations
with a board of arbitration. which is to
decide all disputed questions aud the de-
cisions of which shall he final.

Russell Sage's recent interview makes
out Jay Gould a richer man than he is
generally credited with being. Mr.. Sage
says Gould is the heaviest owner Of Sc
curities in the world, his income alone
from dividends being So, OOO, 900 a year.
Outside OF this he has an income of from
$4,000 900 to $12, 600, 900. 1t is under
stood that Mr.. Gould aims TO make his
wealth net him about 6 per cent, and
if this is the case, and Mr.. Sage knows
what he is talking about, Mr.. Gould
will have to be moved up several pegs
in the list of the country's rich men,

been president of the board since the
day it opened. They based their action
on the ground that Mr.. HoYt's admins

HIDDEN TREASURE IN sARAwAk.


ShlPwrecked Sailors Said to Have Buried
NaiNtbIes In the 81 Butt,
Some sew en- years back, during the
presidency Of Mr.. de Crespigny at Ba-
ram, it was reported to him, and duly
entered in his diary, that treasures
were hidden near the mouth of Shut,
and again further along the coast to-
ware Bintulu. These treasures were
said to have been left by shipwrecked
crew of Spaniards nt the beginning of
this century. The report was given to
Mr.. de Crespigny by Nacola Bunta at
Labuan, and it was said that the spots
where the treasure and other goods
were We're marked by berlimbing trees.
These berlimbing trees have been
found, and have been seen by Messrs.
Hose and Cox, the officers at Baram,
at the mouth of 81 Butt.
The trunks of the trees are some
twenty inches in diameter, and are
very old and have been evidently
planted with care. They incIose AN
oblong space of about twenty yards by
six, as though a h~abitatiou Of some
sort had occupied the inclOsed space.
of this, however, there is no trace.
The building il any, must long since
have crumbled away. 1t is said hat
one Hail Masaili searched the spot
twenty-five years ago. Some Of his
party are still alive and corroborate
this, and say that they found anchor
chains, bolts and other things, such as
crockery and utensils, but nothing OF
real value.
