Mayes, defeat all bills and measures look
ing to an early purchase and opening up of
this vast and fertile domain. If successful
in their scheme this syndicate will fill the
entire Strip, less that part colonized by the
Cherokees, with cattle next spring. The
advance in the price of cattle and the charg
ing of heavy rental by the state of Texas
for her grazing lands have stimulated this
colossal combine which threatens to defy
the United States, and to thwart all efforts
to open the Strip to white settlement.
Unless the authorities at Washington act
promptly and put stop to this movement,
the opening of the Strip may be delayed for
years. Secretary Noble and President Har

to the conclusion there must be Mexican
lion doing the damage. Last night

Garland Buck, and four or five more,
started out with pack of hounds with
the intention of killing it if it could be
found. They were out but short time
when the dogs started cit 1t took to a
tree. The boys came up and could see
it very plainly, as it was in nice clear
place. They concluded not to shoot but
let the dogs kill it. 1t was made to jump
from the tree. The dogs let it get
away and could not track it again. On
starting back home they killed a wildcat.
They intend having another chase soon.

Some Prices Higher.
Special to the Gazette.


New YORK, June 23.-The expectation
that the house of Murieta would announce
its liquidation to-day caused considerable
selling of stocks in our market by London.
The belief that some millions of gold will
go out this week made traders despond-
emit and consequently stocks were weak at
Opening to-day. Later cables reported that
Sthe affairs of Murieta & Co. had been ar
ranged and that the house would not go
into liquidation. A failure in the leather
trade in Boston was an additional bear fac
tor. The little boom in silver seemed to
fatten out completely, at least the price
fell off nearer to parity with the London
price for bullion. Yesterdays speculations
sent the price of certificates up far above
parity with London.
Railway bonds were more tive during
the morning. Prices generally were frac-
tionally lower. Atchison incomes declined

The stock market opened weak and the
tone was respondent. Later the covering
of shorts led to a little buying, so than
prices for St Panl. Rock Island, Louisville
and some others closed higher than theJ
closed yesterday. Chicago gas was weak.

TIN, TIN, AMERICAN TIN.

Major Mckinley Tells a Story Which
Comes Home to PennsyIvanians.
Pennsylvania's growing tin industry
Is attracting national attention and is
figuring in the political campaigns in
all the northern states in which i'm
portant elections are to be held next
month. The Republican policy of pro-
lection to this, as well as other indus
tries giving employment to American
labor, is not forgotten by the working
men of the Keystone state in the present
political canvass.
Major Mckinley, while addressing
one Of his rousing meetings in Ohio the
other day, was interrupted by man in
the audience who handed him up a
paper on which he had written some
questions he desired answered.
The first question was: "Is there any
tin ore in the United States, and where?"
His answer was. eyes; in the Black
Hills in Dakota; it is to be found in San
Bernardino county, Cal, and at both of
this places tin ore is being mined today.
have seen this tin ore, which has been
used and tested, and made into pig tin
that has already been used for making
tinplate in the United States"
The second question was. "Where
is tin plate NADER" He at once answered:
"In Demmler, Pa, and in Apollo, Pa. /;
in Chicago, Ill.,, St. Louis, Mo-, and in
Philadelphia, Pa. But Governor Camp
bell, Mckinley said, complains of the
tariff on tin, and he says that the peo-
pie have got TO pay it all. The COVER
nor wanted to restore the tariff on su-
gar. Now" said Mckinley, admitting
that we did pay all the tin tariff, ad-
mitting that we cannot produce tin ore
or tin plate in the United States, which
| would mis- hearers rather have, two
cents a pound put upon foreign tin plate
or the restoration of two and half and
| three and a half cents per pound on su-
! gar? If we do not and cannot produce
any tin this cOuntry-which is false
then the tariff ON tin is a revenue tariff
and puts revenue into the public treas
ury. 1t also fosters an industry which
gives employment to American labor.
! We have evidence of this fact at home
here in Ohio and among our neighbors
in Pennsylvania.

tee, took seats on the stand Gov Hill
was greeted with loud applause BY the
crowd which had assembled about the

1t was shortly after noon when the
Mexican Band, having rendered a selec-

blage to order. Miss Gtussis Grady, the
only daughter Of Henry Grady, then
stepped forward and drew the cord
which held the canvas in place about
the figure on the monument. The cloth
slipped from the statue, leaving the
bronze figure revealed.
The monument was signed by Alex.
