Portsmouth, Feb 1.-THE National
Liberal Federation continued its meet

programme and unanimously adopted
a resolution to the effect that the ha-

THE GOLD OF THE WORLD.
Enormous Increase Over the Pre-
ceding Years.

Washington, Feb. 14.-Returns receiv-
ed at the treasury department Indicate
that the gold output for 1898 in the
United States will reach the almost IN
precedented amount of s37, 900, an
increase over 1892 of 81 ,0OO, 00O
In Colorado the output has increased
from $S,0O0OO0 in 1892 to $5,OOO0 900 in
1893, while the gains in the gold-pro-
ducing sections are unusually large.
The Australian production will carry
the production of the world, it is
Ithught, to $15O.0O0 900, which is an in
crease of 1000, 900 for the year. With
one or two exceptions, this is the larg-
est output ever known.

ALL HOPE IS GONE.
No Chance of Saving the Entombed
Miners at WiIkesbarre.

wilkesbarre, Pa, Feb. 1.-THE res
cuers at work in the Gaylord mine did
not make much Roadway today. At
o'clock this afternoon, there was an
other cave-in of the roof, which
wrecked the inside workings of the
mine badly.
The workers were compelled TO re-
treat to the foot of the shaft. Many
prominent mine inspectors and engi-
lneers visited the scene and the general
lopinion is that all the men must have
persisted either by being crushed to
death or by suffocation, if they had
time to seek refuge in any other por-
ton of the mine, as it is believed there
was no chance for circulation OF air
after the cavern.

a Tnhor Gallant.

A gallant's toilet was no easy bust
ness. and a slow or clumsy servant, no
doubt, got many an oath and blow if
he failed to tie up the points of the
hose, lace the doublet or arrange the
stomacher and frilled shirt to his
masters satisfaction A gentleman s
dress had so many fastenings, there
was so much tying and iacing of his
garments together. that it was impossi-
BILE that he should ever get accustomed
(sic) without assistance. The long hose
had to be securely tied by a number
|of latchets to the doublet, the doubled
itself was laced up the front, and Inc
sleeves being slashed to show the shirt
sleeves, had also to be laced some
times.-History of English Dress.

Thurston, attorney for the receivers of
the Union Pacific railroad, arrived here
today from Omaha to present to Judge
Caldwell, of the United States circuit
court, petitions for relief from the re-
cent orders made by United States
Judges Hallett and Riner. Briefs have
already been prepared of the volumin-

effect, the attorneys seek to couple the
interests of the government and bond
holders and secure orders which will
enable the receivers to run the system
in its own interest, rather than that of
the. beneficiaries of the contracts made
before the receivers took hold.
Two of the leading features of the
case. as brought up here, will be the
Julesburg cutoff, and the wage scale.
Thurston said the traffic arrange
