DENYER.s 100 I'D.


DENVER March 5.-The city hall was
thrown into the greatest excite
ment today over row between Mayor
IAN Horn and Street Commissioner
lhos FOulks, which resulted in the mayor
bodily throwing the commissioner out Of
ms Office and ordering him TO never en-
ter Il again until he could obey orders
The trouble was over the discharge Of
street Sprinkler Niancourt by Foulks,
the former being a friend of the mayor.
The mayor claims that X iancourt is
competent officer and had been discharg-
ed because of the demands Of the Ameri-
can Protective association.
Mayor Van Horn was at one time
mem Der of this association but
was expelled because he app
pointed Catholic to the

trouble appears to be continuation of
this affair. The mayor appears to have

BUSINESS Is BAD.
Carson and Colorado Railroad Want
Their Assessment Decreased.

lHeN assessment decreased.
SACRAMENTO, July 25,-D. A. Bender,
secretary and treasurer of the Carson and
Colorado road, was before the State Board
of Equalization to-day in regard to the as
sessment of that road. He said the road
is practically not earning dollar, the re.
ceipts last year amounting to but $751; 900
on An investment of SIS. 100000
This will not more than offset the wear
and tear of cars, rails, ETC.. for the year.
Three hundred miles of road is being ope-
rated for the benefit of scattered popula-
ton of 5000.
He therefore asked that it be assessed
only at the rate of $500 per mile, instead
of S2100, as last year. There is no way in
which, If sold to-day, it could be made 20
hiring more than that amount. The actual
cost of hauling ores is in excess of the
price received for hauling it, but people
are kept at work and property kept pro-
ducing By doing so, and the country is kept
from stagnation.
The earnings OF the road have fallen off
this year 1913 per cent from that of last
year. The amount Of freight from the
mines has fallen from 100000 pounds in
1898 to 10,000.0O0 pounds in 1894, and the
other branches of freight have also de-
creased. but not in the same proportion.
George Fletcher. secretary Of the Ne
vada County Narrow-gauge Railroad, said
the strike had in terfered with the work in
which people had been largely investing
in the county and they have stopped in
vesting, and in many cases stopped work
for the remainder of the year which has
been hitherto carried on. AS a conse-
quenee business is very dull and the earn
iDgs of the road decreased.

MINERAL LAND SURVEYS.
Here Is an Improvement That Is
Very Necessary

WASHINGTON, July 25.-Rept sentative
Hall OF Minnesota to-day reported to the
House bill amending the existing law
regarding public lands. Provision is made
whereby settlers in townships not mineral
or reserved by the Government, or persons
and associations lawfully possessed Of Goa
lands, or owners or grantees of public
lands. shall have the right to have such
lands surveyed under certain conditions.
This feature of the bill has in view the
enlargement of the facilities contained in
the coal land laws by permitting such
lands to be surveyed as can now be done
in the case of agricultural lands required
for actual settlement. The dscoverer of
a valuable DEPOSIT of coal upon the sur
veyed public domain may now take possess
sion of and hold his mine. yet there is no
provision of law under which a patent can
issue therefore until the public surveys
have been so extended as to mbrace it.
Another feature of the bill provides that
when settlers or owners or grantees of
public lands make deposits in ayment Of
The cost of surveys certificates shall be
issued therefor, and these may be used in
part payment for the lands settled upon.

CALIFORNIA PAYS THE BILL.
What the Militia in the Field Has
Cost the State.

SACRAMENTO, July "a Bee reporter
called upon Governor Markham this after
noon and in the course of a conversation
the Chief Executive said:
II hear of no dstur Dances to-day from
any quarter and am in hopes that entire
confidence will be restored in few days.
You ask when the State troops will be re-
turned to their various homes. allowed to
discard their uniforms, lay aside their
muskets and resume their daily routine of
business. In the first place you must
understand that these troops were only
called out at the request of the civil
authorities and the United States
Marshal, who doubted their ability to
maintain the peace and protect life and
property. Just as rapidly as things quiet
down so that the peace officers are able to
handle the situation the troops will be
sent home. l think they have done
great good. They were ordered home from
Bakersfield yesterday and the San Fran
cisco troops that were here during the
heat of the strike are with US no longer.
The strike was of greater proportions
than many we're aware. We had
to watch every precinct in the State.
While they did not break out as at Oak
land and San Francisco still there was
that dormant feeling of unrest that re-
uured the most cautious watching. am
very glad it is over. l hope that within
few days that all feeling will be allayed.
| want it understood that no State troops
nave been ordered out except at the urgent
request Of either the national or civic au-
thorities, and in every instance they were
a necessity. Troops should not be called
out unless ii is a necessity, but when they
are needed they should respond without
delay. for that is what the National Guard
was intended for
Governor" asked the reporter. what
will this calling out of the National Guard
cost the State?"
II could not answer that question with
out doing some figuring. but 1t is safe to
say while in active service it will cost
mewhere in the neighborhood of SO, 600
or SIS, 900 day."
That must be paid by Legislative ap-
propriation, must it not?"
THAT would be the proper way for
liquidatng the debt"
For the sake of argument, suppose the
Populists should control the next Legis-
lature and refuse to foot the bills, then
what?"
Chat would make no difference. This
is legal claim against the State. Those
holding claims would sue the State and
recover with costs"

CLOSE TO CAMDEN.
1t Really Looks as Though His
Memory Had Failed Him.

WASHINGTON. July 25-Mr. Seymour o t
the brokerage firm Of Seymour Brothers &
Co. was before the sugar trust lnvestiga-
ton committee to-day. Mr. Seymour
defined to answer questions put to him as
TO the purchase of sugar stock by men,
bers of the Senate. or as to his knowledge
of the existence Of an order for such stock
which former witnesses testified had been
made through his firm in, the name of SEN
ator Camden. pleading that the committee
had no power to compel him to reveal to
them his patrons.
Mr.. AlIisoB's testimony was important
as corrOb0rative of the statements of
Massrs. Gulliardeau and other witnesses.
While the details of his testimony eanhot
be given, he stated positively that he had
seen the Camden order.
Another witness of the day was George
Bruce, New York broker. 1t is under
stood that he testified to having seen an
alleged order for the purchase of sugar
stock purported to have been given by
Senator Camden and to have also seen
photograph and an electrotype of it.

KANSAS CITY. July 25.-Grand Master
Barrett of the Switchmen's Mutual Aid
Association passed through here yesterday
en- route for Chicago, on PROSECUTING tour
through Kansas for the newly projected
swlcthmen's association. Mr.. Barrett has
been to Topeka, Leavenworth and other
Kansas points agitating the scheme for a
new order, and said to reporter that he
had met with signal success. Every
where" said he, "the idea was heartily
taken up, and practically all members OF
the old association whom met promised
to join the new body. In Kansas City.
where there are 800 switchmen. new
lodge will be organized at once. and in
clude all the members of the old associa-
tion and many new ones"
Jacob f. Beard. for many years secre-
tary or the local lodge, is authority for the
statement that the new order will practi-
cally abandon the beneficiary idea as a
means OF letting into the body many
switchmen who were heretofore kept OUT
because of the excessive rates. The order
will thus be made as strong as that of the
engineers or conductors, and hereafter
will make a specially of fighting Its own
battles,
