THE FALL IN SILVER.


Tho Supply OF the Metal Increasing,
Though Not Thrown ON the Market.
NEW YORK, Oct. 5.-Bankers and finan-
ciers of this city are in the rather peculiar
position of being unable to offer theory
which will account for the condi-
ton one Of the great markets of
the financial world. They declare 1t
an enigma that while offerings of
silver bullion have decreased the prices
have declined. Offerings to the United
States treasury have been steadily growing
less, yet the price has gone down to $.s345
per ounce, instead of increasing according
to the old law of economics that the less
the supply the greater the price. Sub
Treasurer Roberts said today:
The course of the bullion market Is mystery
to everybody. Nobody have talked to has
theory satisfactory to himself accounting for it.
1t becomes q greater mystery from the fact that
reports from the West are that some mines have
stopped work.
A prominent bank official said:
The reason for this state of things may be the
largo influx of silver from Mexico. Two con-
Germs in New Mexico have lately built large
smeters which can produce 100000 ounces of
silver year. do not believe there Is any hold
ing OF silver for any purpose. The amount
coming into abe country is. however, enormous.
Henry Clews said:
l suppose the reason. is that since exports of
silver for long time past have aggregated a
small amount, the only customer for it 10 the
United States treasury, and its purchase, to-
gether with what is needed in the arts, absorbs
the American product The price on the stock
exchange should advance as the visible supply
decreases, as indicated by the quantity regis
tered, but as it did not it is evident that the
visible supply is not all the silver in the mar
ket Therefore, while the visible supply has de-
creased, the invisible has increased, and it is
from this invisible stock that the government is
enabled to purchase.

TRACK REACHES THE COLUMBIA.
The Roads May Agree on Rates Without

The Terminal Question.

President J. J. Hill, of the Groat Northern
railroad. arrived in the city from Everett on his
special train at lD:15 o'clock last night, ana
spent the night on board. He was accompanied
by E. H. Becker, chief engineer; NJ. N. Grover,
general counsel: c. Shields, general euperin-
tendeat OF the western division: p p. Shelby,
general manager; Peter Stems, of Shepard,
stems d Co., the contractors: Prof. w. W.
Payne, director of the Mortified observatory
OF Minnesota; A. l. Horner, superintendent OF
the Coast lines, and Frank Ward, his private
secretary. In an interview with Posr-lNTsL-
LIGENCER reporter MI. Hill said:
II have Just come over the line, and find work
making good progress expect track will be
connected at the summit about November 10, az
have before said. We have anticipated bad
weather 70 large extent by getting the heavy
work done first. The storm blew down about
100000 feet Of bridge timbers in Moses coulee.
but that damage has been about repaired When
the bank is well settled we shall be able to re-
duce the time between here and ST. Paul to
about sixty hours.
''The Transcontinental association Is about
broken up, but cannot say what is likely 10 be
done with rates. We have no transcontinental
line yet, and our transcontineutal business is
very light at present / see no reason why we
should not be able to agree On rates with the
Northern Pacific; we have always got along
well with 1t so fur.
"The terminal question here is now in the
hands of the courts, and see no reason why We
should not succeed in condemning right-of-way
across the tracks of the other roads; we ask no
more than has been granted to other lines. We
are getting here very fast, and we have got to
have place to do business; we cannot go to sea
to do ii.
''We may change the line of the Seattle &
Montana at Everett so "a to cross the Snohom-
ish river twice above that place and run through
Everett by tunnel, tearing out the bridges by
which the road now crosses.
Mr.. Becker said that track was now at the Co
iumbia river at the south end of Moses coulee
on the east end and at Index on the west end.
There was now l2o miles OF track to lay to make
the connection.

IT ENDED WITH A WEDDING.


Gilman Shooting Proven to Be Acct
dental-WOunded Man . Benedict.
John HallwOrth. OF Gilman, who shet his
daughters intended husband, Martin Keogh, at
the family residence in Gilman the nigfat the
marriage was to have taken place, and who ives
arrested on q charge of assault with deadly
weapon, was discharged yesterday after aliear.
ing before Justice Won TobeL The evidence
submitted by the state failed to show Gauge for
the affair, aud the defense made q good case of
accidental shooting. :
1t appears Hallworth met Kcogh. his intended
son-in-law, in this city on September 20, ard to-
gether they went to Gilman, where the mar
rage was to take place that night HaIlworth
told Keogh that he had two kegs of beer to esle-
brafe with. and everything was ready for good
time. After they reached the house Hail.
worth started down town, but went back
to the house 10 leave his revolver, and while
he was fooling with it, it went off and keogh
was wounded. He admitted that he was drunk,
but denied having any trouble with Koogh.
The latter confirmed this ststement.
After the trial Hallworth was making inqeiries
as to the best way to get his daughter away from
Keogh, with whom, he said, she was living,
when the couple came in and announces that
they had been married. Mr. Haliworth did not
credit until he saw the marriage license register
1t the auditors office.

CHICAGO. Oct. 5.-The death of John M.

light an interesting story, all the more Gu
rious in connection with the circumstances

Ting business, and then in the
height of the prohibition agitation
removed to Sioux City, purchasing

to which he built pontoon bridge. A

British Columbia Lumber Trust Dead.

NEW WESTMINSTER, Oct. 5.-[Special. i
Today the combine of lumber mills on the
mainland went out of existence, and the
seven mills which were in the ring will
resume their own rates. The combine was
formed in the month of May, but the
Brunette Sawmills Company soon became
dissatisfied with the arrangements, as
they claimed some of the other mills were
not adhering to the scale of rates under
which the combine was working. In July,
therefore, the Brunette mills gave the re-
quired three months notice that they
would drop out of the combine, and as
that term ended today the other mills de-
cided to abandon the combine altogether.
