Designs Against Gov. Waite'S
 Coinage Movement.
The Treasury Department Says the Plan Is Unconstitutional and will
 Not Be Carried Out
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
 WASHINGTON, Dec. 7.-Acting Secre- tary Curtis of the treasury department intimated plainly that the government would interfere should an attempt be made to give practical effect to the sug- gestion of Governor Waite, of Colorado, to make silver legal tender and pro- vide for free coinage at state mint.
 Curtis said Gov ernor Waite knew very we'll the United States alone had the right to coin money and that coin age by the state would be contrary to theconstitution. The eattorney-general, he added, would be asked for advice as to the propsr course to take should the case require action, which he did not think would be needed.

SUPPOSED BONANZAS.
Experts to Visit Sacramento Mining
Properties in Mexico.

Experts to Visit Sacramento Mining
Properties in Mexico.
The stockholders in the Sacramento
Mexican Mining Company, whose group
of mines are in Sonora, some sixty miles
from Ures, have succeeded in securing
the services Of Assemblyman Raw of Ell
Dorado-who is an expert in silver min
ing-to go down, inspect and report on
the several lodges owned by the COM
pany.
The most fiattering reports continue to
come from Superintendent Meyers, but
the stockholders want to have the ledges
and workings thoroughly inspected by
an expert. Several assays have been
made in San Francisco of the ores, which
show results of 81 coo ton, and the Sac
ramentQ holders OF the stock are desirous
of Immediately erecting smelling works,
if the ore bodies are found to be as large
| as reported, and having the bullion roll
out in big quantities, so they may know
how to estimate their riches.
Mr.. Raw will take with him aEcompe-
tent assayer and analyst, and it will not
be many weeks until it is determined
whether or not Sacramento has several
! dozen more millionaire citizens than
heretofore.
| The company has four mines in a
group, with a big reservoir, houses. a
| store, smelter and other valuable prop
erty, including a 1,2O0-foot tunnel into
one of its mines, the Clrizel. The cost to
the present stockholders has been COM
paratively small-only ten cents per
share. but the work of developing the
mines has for that reason been neces-
sarily slow.
Like the rest of their fellow -townsmen,
they have ''got a move on'' themselves,
however, and are going to push matters.
About eighty Sacramentans own most of
the stock, and it is their purpose-if Mr..
Raw reports favorably-to have him take
hold and work the mines systematically.

Fayors the Plaza.

Tits now almost a certainty that we will
soon have one of the most magnificent
hotels to be found anywhere on the coast
outside of San Francisco" said General
MARITIME yesterday, ''but no mistake
should be made in selecting a proper site
for this grand acquisition to Sacramento.
Among the many sites suggested there is
really but one that should command the
attention of our people, and that is the
block between l and j, Ninth and Tenth
streets, known as the Plaza. 1t is situ-
ated on our main thoroughtare; it is right
in the heart of our business center; cleo
tric cars pass it going to and from all parts
OF the city, and tourists, commercial men
and all others would find it most conve-
niently located.
The grounds are beautifully laid out
for just this purpose, and by using this
block the people of this city would be
saved putting up the price of other costly
property, which would, at the least cal
lation, amount to 500, 900. This money
could be used in erecting the buildings.
Objection may be brought against using
this ground, as it is one of our public
squares, but what is the matter with
Capitol Park, only two blocks away and
containing some thirty acres OF the most
beautiful park in the country?
"Our people must not begrudge giving
little, which will return so much. A
fine modern hotel on the Plaza, with am
pie grounds for band to give nightly
concerts, would be feature that would
give strangers splendid impression of
the Capital City of the State and do Won
ders toward making this one of the sum-
mer resorts of the coast"

FOR A MODERN HOTEL.
Edwin K. Alsip's Views on This I'M
portant Matter.
1t Should Have Modern Conveniences,
and Its Location Carefully
Selected.

"Yes," said Edwin K. Alsip to a REC
oRD-UNIoN reporter yesterday, 81 be-
ieve Sacramento needs first-class hotel
more than she needs anything else, and
nothing she can do Will draw to her more
people. We need a place to entertain
those who come to look for locations for
factories and other business. Neither

here, but will benefit them.
The commercial traveller, through
whom most all business is now done, will
overlook bad streets and other disadvan
tages provided you give him first-class
Accommodations, and he, more than any
one else, will praise or condemn you as
he is treated. The drummer condemna-
ton means great deal, as 1 know from
experience. And so it is with any one
else visiting our city.
II believe hotel should be centrally
located. The dining-room, kitchen, and
all except the office should be on the sec
ond floor, and the first floor should be
rented for stores, offices, etc. In this way
II could be made to pay. All first-class
hotels in the East that | have visited are
run upon this plan. We cannot secure
sufficient room to place it in the center of
the ground without going out too far. We
do not want it below Fifth nor above
Eleventh streets. We should secure the
services of some good hotel man.

were willing TO take hold and push the

literally, he would then come forward
and assist them. He also said that, while
he was not authorized to speak for any
but himself, he thought others connected
with the railroad company would assist
to quite considerable amount
by all means, push the hotel scheme,
and do not quit until it is built; and
then many capitalists will visit US who
are now deferred from so doing by reason
of our accommodation. And when with
