Insurgent ENJOYS Deny Balmaeeda's s


WASHINGTON, July 29.-The Gillian con-
gressional ENJOYS emphatically deny the
truth of the reports from Santiago to the
effect that thousand soldiers of the con
gressional army at Iquique refused to leave
there when ordered to Atacama because
they had received no pay. The soldiers Of
the Iquique government, they say, are
volunteers, but aside from this fact the
government has plenty OF money with
which 10 pay them. Balmaceda, they sf-
firm, sought 10 negotiate loan in Europe,
also in the United States, but was unsuc-
cessful. The government of Baimaceda,
they assert. has made no progress since
the commencement of the revolution, and
each month since it began it has expert
enced losses. The ENJOYS say they have
been as follows: In January, the navy; in
March, the provinces OF Tacns; in May, the
province of Atacama; in June the LobOs
guano islands, and during the present
month the valley of Huasco. Balmaceda
mas not the ENJOYS insist, been able TO re-
cover any Of his losses which his govern
ment sustained.

Farm Indebtedness In the United States.

WASHINGTON, July 29.-The count of
farm home transcripts, made in accordance
with the mortgage collection clause of the
census act, has been completed by the CEN
sus Office. There were returned by
enumerators 2,49l, $50 farms and homes &C.
cupied by owners, which are encountered
by mortgages. This includes some about
which the enumerators made no report and
which belong partly to the class of hired
and partly 10 the class owned free, as well
as partly TO the class owned and encum
bered. Until this unknown quantity, due
to the failure of the enumerators. is elimi-
mated, ii may be regarded as approximately
true that two and quarter million of the
twelve and half million families of the
United States occupy and own encountered
farms and homes, and that ten
and a quarter million families &C.
hired or owned free. The proportions
of hired and owned free homes and farms
will be known when the population divis-
ion is complete, and a count of the returns
pertaining to them. The preliminary re-
suits indicate that the average debt for
farms in Iowa Is Sl5.S3 per home, 1913 for
acreage, for farm and home, Sll.40. If
these averages hold good for the union, in
cumbrance on farms and homes OF the
United States occupied by owners, is about
s., 565, 900, 600. The success of this investi-
CATION, Superintendent Porter says, has
been far beyond the anticipations of the
most experienced statisticians. and the re :
suit will be of immense interest and value
to the nation. The third volume, relating
to recorded Indebtedness, will probably go
to the press this year. Incomplete returns
from several western states indicate that
farms and houses are mortgaged for about
ope-thira of the value put upon them by
their owners.

A TOWN LOT SALE
The Quiet of POcatellO Seriously
Disturbed.
An Investor Bids for a Lot with House on Ii
Cries of Lynch Him Raised-TreOps
May Be Ordered There.

PoCAMELLo, Idaho. July 29.-[Special
Telegram to THE HERALD. The preiic-
ton that the sale of town lots would pro-
coed without interference came near being
proved wrong to- day. 1t has been the
custom TO do very little bidding against
parties having residences. This rule has
been strictly observed by many from mo-
tives Of right, by others having cause to
fear an uprising on the part of the people.
To-day a laboring man, when the lot on
which his house stands came up for sale,
asked the crowd to let him have
it at the appraised value, all as
poor but deserving man. When put
up, however, a man named Bradish, of
Helena, Mont, representing considerable
capital, raised his bid to 500 over the ap-
praised value He was told that the lot had
a residence on it, and asked if he desired TO
withdraw his bid. He said he did not. In
moment there was rush of almost the
entire crowd for Bradish, crowding him in
one corner of the land office, while cries of
bring him outn and Lynch him." ETC.,
filled the air. Bradish asked the land Of
ficials if they would protect his life, and
with the same breath Withdrew his bid.
He was so scared he could hardly stand.
AT this juncuure Deputy United States
Marshal Hopson and his aids rushed
in but the crowd was satisfied at Brad
lsh's withdrawal, and molested him no
more. He was SO scarrd he insisted on
being watched by an officer all night, and
will probably leave town in the morning
Special Land Agent Parker, sent by the
interior department, says if there are any
more manifestations he will either have the
sale stopped, or have the department order
troops to be stationed here until the sale is
over. Deputy United States Marshal Hop
son told your correspondent he would i'm
med;ately put on an extra force
of deputies. The sale will be opened
as usual in the morning on the same
lot. If any more trouble arises the sale
will be closed until advices from Washing
ton can be had. The probable outcome will
be numbers of parties will be arrested for
Intimidation.
JACK Snyder, brakeman, was brought
to this city this morning, having been run
over by the cars at Minadoka, small sta
ton west of here, last night, crushing his
foot in a horrible manner. 1t is thought
the foot will have to be amputated.
