Forest Fires in Mexico.

Monterey, Mex, March 20
Forest fires have been raging several
days in the Sierra mountains, south
east of Saltillo. Thousands of acres
of timber are destroyed and many
fami les are homeless. Several goat
berders are reported perishing.
There has been no rain for many
months. The entire country is as
dry as parchment, and the flames
spread with remarkable rapidity,
All efforts to get them under control
have been futile.

WILL RESUME.

1t is pleasant to note that three iron
mills in Pennsylvania are about 10 resume
operations. thus giving work to about
5000 men. The tide evidently has turned.
A panic without cause is passing
away. large amount of properly
has changed hands, but no real property
has disappeared. The depreciation IN
stocks, Of which so much has been said,
is mere readjustment of values. Stocks
had got too high, and in the order OF things
they had TO come down. That a great
many men are hurt will be admitted. But
there Is as much wealth in the country
now as there was year ago, and the earth
is doing her part to show the annual in
crease. 1t will probably appear in time
that the money question had nothing to do
with the scare. The proposition that the
purchase of little more than 800, 000, 600
of silver caused a jar upon the industries
of the country is absurd. If some securi-
ties come back from Europe On account Of
the apprehension that bonds might be paid
in silver we have fewer Understanding
securities abroad in consequence. Manu-
facturerS are without doubt apprehensive
as TO the action of Congress on the tariff.
and this unrest has been intensified by
silly talk about repeating the Sherman sill
yer purchasing act. Except as an indica-
ton OF the policy Congress will pursue on
the silver question the repeal of the Sher-
man act is of little Importance.

THE VALLEY RAILROAD.

There are many people in California
who do not comprehend the scope and
purpose of he proposed San Joaquin Val
ley Railroad. Some seem tn think that it
is simply adding to the number of roads
in the valley. But it is this and some
thing more. 1t proposes to introduce the
principle of competition into the trans
portation business in this State. a local
article in Sundays CALL shows how much
this is needed. Under the present system
of things the people of the valley are COM
PEELED TO pay the losses the Southern Pa
ciic incurs through low rates between
competing points. Merchandise is carried
from Chicago to Stockton for 90 cents on
the hundred pounds. But to carry it less
than half way through the valley to
Fresno, 65A cents is charged. From Chi
cago to Stockton the distance is more than
1000 miles. large portion of the road over
mountains, while from Stockton to Fresno
the distance is 40 miles Through a level
country. The Southern Pacific charge is
more than two-thirds as much over this
120-mile stretch as over the 1000 stretch
from Chicago. 1t is not supposed that the
Southern Pacific maliciously proposes to
favor the trade of Eastern cities, but as
there is choice Of routes from all East
ern points, rate is made 10 get the traffic
The San Joaquin Valley producer has to
pay the loss on the long haul. The San
Joaquin Valley Railroad will give the San
Joaquin producers railroad rates based on
the cost of service. The new road will not
have to pay any other route losses. 1t
will. in word, give the people of that
valley the benefit OF comp tition.

TOO FABULOUSLY RICH.

We are familiar in California with mar
velous stories of great strikes OF prodisi-
ously rich ore, the assays showing that the
gold ran to thousands of dollars per ton,
and the careful, unassailable, veracious
reports from superintendent and experts
admitted to an inspection showing that
the body of ore was of vast extent and
promised better results the further work
was advanced. During bonanza times on
the CoMstock credulity was kept we'll sup
piled with expectations of roseate char
acter, and the mere fact that some mines
were rich had stimulating effect in CIV
ing value to others we'll nigh worthless.
But in the palmiest days If mining any
where in the world there never was such a
strike Of gold as is reported from South
Africa by the Kimbere correspondent of
the Mining World. He is a sanguine man
if he assumes that people not quite bereft
of their senses can give his calculation a
fftieth part of the credit he claims. This
correspondent says he got the facts from
friend in Johannesburg, a circumstance
which raises the story in trustworthiness,
according to the usual presidents in mining
exploitation. On the Randi lately there
has been discovery Of the Main Reef
series of deposits at a depth of from
$500 to 1000 feet away from the outcrop.
The discovery looms up in the vision of
the correspondent in the following shape:
This event clearly points TO a potential
ity OF greatness for the Randi I'm paraileled
in the history of the world. 1t Is not only
tia on basis of 10 Owls .there are proba bly,
e21, 1897. 500 (S106, 937, 500 worth of gold on
this property, out as we have forty miles
of it we may figure 1t out something like
this. The cubical contents will come out
at 1873 100000 cubic meters and the weight
at 45S.000,0 900 tons. The stuff shows in
many places visible gold, and several as
says have run as high as ten ounces. Half
the width of the reef will give three ounces,
so that one may safely say one ounce will
go over the plates. On this basis we shall
get el.6O30OO.OO0 sterling (SS015. Zoo, 0O0)
To realize what this means arthmetically
is impossible, but to know that it would
require 400 trucks of a carrying capacity
Of tea tons, and that the string of them
would extend for five miles, may help the
conception"
Yes, it may! The Randi doubtless is
rich In ore, without exaggeratinn, but that j t
will yield anything like III IS quar- tity OF gold
is too preDOSterOus for belief. Such an esti-
mate might suit romance which had its
scene laid In the land of Ophir. but it
savors of rank imposition to palm it upon
the public who will soon be asked to take
shares in the various enterprises. But
making due allowance for magnifying
alterations, there is much gold in South
Africa and industrious man will extract it,
