WA, arrived last night at the Still

hiiits own gas works, and in that time
thecost Of gus to private consumers has

that electricity can be furnished for
that sum. The Council therefore ap-
ptoPnaIed 100000 for the purpose Of
establishing IN electric light plant, and
what Is known as the Electric Light
Commission was formed. The mem

BY the Agricultural Department Can
Rain bo Produced to Order?
WASHINGTON, D. c., July S,-Colonel
Dyrcnforth, of the Department OF Agri-
culture, with two assistants, left here
to-day for the interior of Texas, where
he makes further experiments in the
feasibility of producing rain in arid re-
gions by exploding balloons charged
with oxygen and hydrogen at q consid-
cradle height in the air. Tests will also
be made in exploding dynamite at
tached to the tails Of the huge kites, in
connection with the theory that rain
may be produced by the concussion of
high explosions in mid air. Colonel
Dyrenforth will seek some sequestered
spot in Texas and will then make a
thorough and exhaustive experiment as
to towhether or not rain can be produced
when needed by means of explosions
near the clouds.

THE MONEY SITUATION.
Tho General State of the Market as Viewed
by an Authority.

Tho General State of the Market as Viewed
by an Authority.
New York, July s.-The Post says:
The continued apathy in stock exchange
business since the July disbursements
served to emphasize one. fact, which
there never was any good reason to
doubt, that in the present condition Of
things it requires something moro than
q good supply OF money to create
an active market. Last weeks dsburse-
ments on interest and dividend accounts
were not far from $75,000,00O. A large
part Of this sum must necessarily go
into the hands Of the people who are
investigating in stocks and bonds. But
the trouble all through this spring and
early summer has lain deeper than in
the question of money supply. There
has been plenty OF money on hand,
and there have not been lack
ing good investment opportuni-
ties, particularly in bond markets.
1t is generally the feeling of doubt, q
natural consequence OF last winters
crisis, which has prevented such in
iieye that the present period Of stag
nation is a period Of recovery which
will in due time be followed by re-
viyal in investment business. But up
to the present time operators, who have
tested the stock market with view to
bull movements, have not found it
responsive. Indeed, il is at least open
to question whether first signs OF re-
turning life must not be looked for in
bond sales before they can be expected
to play partin stocks.

SEATTLE, WASH, July s.-The attempt
to bring out voluntary disarmament

rendered. Work is proceeding at Gil

nothing doing at Black Diamond.

THE onnEAN REnEn11oN.
Tho Insurgents in had shape -withouI
Money nnd Arms.

AAbhUS AAhA AAAAA1s
CAIIAo, July s.-Passengers arriving
from Valparaiso and Iquique state that
the situation of the Chilean insurgents
is desperate. They are without money
and their vessels are in bad condition
and without ammunition. The army,
which comprises 5000 to 1000 "potcs,n
do not receive their pay. The insur-
gents have been able to obtain only 800
rifles in bad order, bought in Panama.
Most of the inhabitants of Iquique,
'Pisagua and Antofagasta have emigra-
ted to southern Chile or to Peru. The
French residents in Chile and the
Chilean government await with tram
guilty the decision of the French
tribunals regarding tho vessels con-
structed there for account of the gov
ernment of Chile. They have every
confidence in the integrity Of the French
judges and in President Carnot.

THE EXPLODED GUN.
Statement of the Accident on the British
War Ship.

war bhlps
LONDON, July S.-Lord George Ham
ilton, First Lord of the Admiralty, has
made a statement in the House of Com
mons in regard to the recent fatal ex-
plosion of a gun on the man.of-war
Cordelia in Australian waters. The Cor
della, he said, was engaged in target
practice at the time Of the explosion.
After six rounds had been fred, the
gun was loaded with q full charge-a
thirty-four pound common shetland
five minutes later, on the firing OF the
seventh round, the gun burst. The
gun was one of the earliest designs OF
six-inch breech leaders and fred much
heavier charges than those previously
used. There are eighty-seven guns
ahoat OF this pattern, the manufacture
OF which was discontinued some time
ago. These guns have been in use some
years. No want OF confidence is e&-
pressed about them. This is the first
time any loss Of life has occurred on
board any of Her Majesty's ships by q
breech-loader accident arising from q
defect in the gun.
1t is stated at Portsmouth that the
gun which exploded on the man-of-war
Cordelia had previously been found de-
fective and had been strengthened;
but the fact that the six charges had
been fired before it exploded tends to
show that it was in a safe condition.

Salt Lake CITY to Deem Creek.

The Salt Lake Tribune of the
18th Of April devotes a page and
a half to a very exhaustive des-
crlption Of the country between
Salt Lake City and Deep Creek,
near the line of Nevada and Utah.
The paper also writes up many
mining districts in the section de-
scribed, giving the ASSAYS of the
different claims, and gives a large
amount of information to persons
who may desire to visit Deep
Creek. A stage line was estab-
Iished on the 9th of April be-
tween Salt Lake and Deep Creek
and from the interest the above
named journal takes in the New
Eldorada, it would seem that the
prospects for the Utah and Ne
7ada Air Line were improving.
