Tacoma, Nov 23-It remained cloudy
all day today, and Mount Tacoma could
not be seen
Professor P. Is. Vantrump, Of Yelm
Prairie, thirty miles north, where a
splendid view of the mountain could be
obtained, Wries the Ledger to the ef-
feet that the mists rising rom the
mountain have probably been mistaken
for smoke. Professor Vantrump writes:
Persons familiar with the mountain
phenomena, especially those pertaining
to this great mountain, know that
clouds or masses of mist often form
very rapidly on the mountain side or
near its base, which some times sud-
denly elongate into streamers or coll
umns and shoot rapidly up the noun
tain in the ravines or depressions be-
tween it's rocky ribs and rise high above
the peaks, or one OF them. Seen from the
other side of the peak this ascending
column of mist (Of a dark or black hue
when seen in a certain light, looks eX-
actly like smoke issuing from the sum-
nit of the peak. Such a phenomenon
is sometimes seen in connection with
the north peak. Again, the weather
caps which are thrown off from t.es
middle peak, sometimes a half dozen in
rapid succession. look very much, some
times like 'puffs' OF smoke. These caps
of mist are simply condensed mist air
or steam from the craters and almost
invariably precede a storm or change
in the weather.

Boise. idaho Nov. 23.-LSpeclail-
The alleged interview in the Salt Lake
Tribune. in which Senator Dubois IS
quoted as saying Senator shoup was
not a. candidate for reelection, pro-
volled many smiles from people mere
today.
1t was unanimously agreed that Ida
hos so-ca,led distinguished son had
wilfuIly misrepresented the facts or
that the man who interviewed him had
not vet recovered from the effects OF
the late election.
Senator Shoup, today, Informed The
Herald correspondent that he was
candidate for reelection, all reports
emanating from supporters OF Con-
gresham Sweet to the contrary not
withstanding.
"Since the election and my return to
Boise, I have been advised said Sen
ator Shoup, that it has been widely
stated I would not be a candidate for
reelection, and that I was under obli-
cations not to enter the contest. NO
one has had any authority to make
such statements respecting my posi-
ton; nor has any one been justified,
during or since the campaign, in max
| ing any such assertions
The senator said there was a time
when he could not have permitted his
name to GO before the legislature for
reelection, referring ITO the period
prior to Sweets failure to be nomina-
| ted by the state convention.
"There is now, however, no reason,
the senator continued, nor have there
been any conditions that would pre-
vent me from allowing my name to be
used"
Referring to Dubois interview, sena-
| tor Shoup said:
Senator Dubois must have been mis-
quoted, for the reason that in none of
the number of the interviews [ had
with him during the recent campaign,
was the senatorial question alluded to

ARE AFTER THE BOUNTY.
Test Cases Which May Involve
Eleven Million Dollars.

Washington, Nov. 23.-The contro-
versy between the sugar growers of
the country and the United States
government, growing out of the repeal
of the act granting a bounty of one
half cent a pound on all sugars grown
in the United States and territories by
the new tariff, but by subsequent re-
fusal of the treasury department to
pay bounties on the sugar grown in the
present year, reached The first stage in
progress to definite legal settlement to-
day.
]. Archibald Murray, an alto ney Of
New York, filed today n tie court Ct
claims, three suits, identical in char-
acter and all seeking TO recover from
the government sums of money alleged
to be legally due the complainants as
bounty on sugar raised by them IN IT, e
year 1894.
The Chino Valley Beet Sugar ccm-
pany of California, sues for S43121;
the Norfolk Beet Sugar company for
49, 093 and the OXnard Beet Sugar COM
pany for $11,7S2. The complaints are
based on the allegation that the United
States, by act of Congress, granting a
bounty OF Zee, pound upon all sugar
grown in the United States and terri
tories entered into a legal contract with
the compliments, as well as all other
sugar growers and led them, by it's
terms, to undertake the culture of beets
and other plants from which sugar is
obtained, but which could not have
| been probably pursued without the
| benefit of such contract. The claim is
| further made that the crops of the
compliments were growing and the
sugar resulting from them was in pro-
cess of making long before the passage
| by Congress of the measure repeating
the provisions of the act granting the
| bounty and that the government has no
right TO Withhold the payment of the
bounties alleged to be due.
| The case will probably be pushed to
an early hearing in the court of claims
and will then be taken to the United
States court for final adjustment. 1t
is understood the suits are brought as
test cases. and will be vigorously con-
| tested as an amount Of about 1,OG0.-

A FRAUD.
JUDGE HORIZONS VERY SEVERE
DENUNCIATIoN.
Officers Of the North American De-
posit and Investment Company, of
Dubuque, Iowa, Pronounced Swim
dlers-Some of the Charges.

Chicago. Nov. 23.-The North Ameri-
can Deposit and Investment company,
of Dubuque, Ia. was severely de-
nounced by Judge Horton in open court
today.
The methods of the company were
declared to be fraudulent, and its Off
GERS pronounced swindlers, while the
court expressed an opinion that it's or
ganization had been effected for the
purpose Of preying upon the innocent.
The company is one of the largest
loan and investment concerns in the
country, having a capital stock of
So, 100000. While the company was in
corporated in Iowa, and has its main
offices in Dubuque, the chief officers,
Samuel P. House, president, and Ly-
man E. Gage, secretary, are residents
of this city. The subject matter for
Judge Horizons criticism was contain
ed in the facts brought out on the
trial of a chancery, matter in which
Carolina Humphreys and her husband,
Joshua Humphreys, a colored couple,
formerly residing in Atlanta, Ca, We're
compartments.
The evidence given in court was to
the effect that Humphreys and his
wife wished to obtain a loan of $1,000
on property worth $500. They were in
duced to sign papers which they were
told constituted a mortgage, but which
in reality amounted to an absolute
warranty deed. The old cclored people
never received but $3.50 in cash, the
balance of the $1,000 being given to
them in the shape of stock in the COM
pany.
Judge Horton ordered a reconvey-
ance of the property and ordered the
cancellation of the $1,000 note executed
by the Humphreys on the return of the
cash which they had received, and the
stock in the company.
In giving his decision, the court was
very severe on Edward w. Duncan. of
Dubuque, the attorney of the concern,
who is also cashier Of a bank in that
city, and wound up his decision by de-
claring the company was gotten up for
the purpose OF. perpetrating frauds up
on the people with whom it dealt.

A GAME OF DIPLOMACY.
British Qualifications Arc Rather Ill
Timed.

Washington, Nov. 23.-The latest
China-Japan developments disclose an
interesting game of diplomacy. The
cable advices stating that the British
officials are delighted with the rebuff
sustained by the United States in Ja-
pans rejection of the mediation causes
much amusement among the diplomats
here, who are familiar with the facts.
While the British aversion that the
United States acted entirely alone in
its offer and without the cooperation of
Great Britain is literally true, yet it is
known that her majesty's government,
for trade or commercial reasons, heart
lily desired the success of the move
ment. for it was feared a continuance
of the war might hurt British interests
in the east. The sentiment of British
diplomats on Japan,s rejection of our
overtureS is, therefore, tempered by
financial consider alton. From the out
set of the negotiations, Great Britain
has shown the greatest anxiety to have
the war terminated, and the foreign
office has twice put in intervention.
The interest of Great Britain in the
matter WIS known 70 rest on no senti-
mental grounds, but because OF a de-
sire to preserve China, one of the
greatest commercial markets of Eng
lish merchants. In official circles, il
was understood that the British offer
was at the instance of China. The

F-re, Secretary Hoke Smith could not
rry out his intention and submit
mes for commissioners on Uncom-
ahgre and Uintah reservation mat
tiers. Smith said to The Herald cor
respondent today:
Il am anxious to have the Uncom-
pahgre reservation matter settled, and
intend to push the appointment Of COM
missioner5 by gaining the president
attention. They would have been ap-
pointed some time ago, but the presi-
dent was on his vacation and after
wards came the busiest time of the
year, when annual reports must be
made. I expect the names will be an
H5unced next week, but cannot say
who with be the appointees. 1 am in
clined to disagree with the present law
as to the disposition of the lands in the
Uintah reservation, and expect my
policy will be disappointing to the peo-
pie of Utah. However, L believe the in
terests of the various Indian tribes
sshould be considered g sacred trust by
government, and shall recommend
ine-ny annual report that no more
lands be thrown open as a. part of the
plHblic domain without charge /
would have all lands held by Indians
and intended for opening sold at auc-
ton and the profits thereof used to
benefit the Indians, giving ample OPP
portuility for proper inspection and
prospecting for minerals, but believe
the Indians should be fully protected
and not cheated. That is my whole
policy"
1t is generally understood that Smith
will make an effort at the short ses-
sion of Congress for additional legisla-
ton regarding these reservations.
Originally, he objected to the disposal
OF the asphaitum lands except by auc-
ton, not liking TO see them thrown
open for entry under the mineral laws
Had Mr.. Rawlins not been sufficiently
influential TO have the reservation bill
Incorporated upon the Indian appropri-
Elton bill, it is probable that such a
condition would have been required
lfore it received the approval of the
! PRESIDENT. However, there is little
7 prospect that Smith will be successful
in converting Congress, as it is proba-
BILE that the law makers will remain
loyal to the present law. The Ameri-
can Asphalt company would like no.
thing better than to have asphaltun
lands auctioned, as it would thus be
able to obtain a monopoly, therefore
the leaders will support Rawlins' oppo'
siticn to such a course. Rawlins made
the fight once before and was victorious
and there is no reason to believe he
twill not be able to do so again.

a THE NEW TREATY.
Commerce Between This Country
and Japan.


and Japan.
Washington, Nov. 23-Secretary of
State Gresham, in behalf of the United
States, and Minister Kurino, of Japan,
in behalf of his country, have affixed
the signatures to new treaty Of amity
and commerce between this country and
Japan. The final formalities in the
execution of the instrument occurred
at the state department yesterday after
the close of Office hours and the fact
that it now awaited only the ratifica-
ton of the two governments was eX-
clusively announced by the Associated
Press yesterday.
Secretary Gresham win now transmit
the new treaty to the United States
Senate as soon as it convenes, and Mr..
Kurino will forward it to- the japanese
foreign office to be approved by the
emperor of Japan and privy council.
Coming al the present time, the sign
ing of the treaty is considered of much
significance beyond it's actual terms, as
it establishes cordiality between the
committees when the foreign powers are
endeavoring to show that Japans rejec-
ton of the peace meditation was snub
to the United States. The signing of
the treaty includes the labor which has
been in progress for fifteen years, and
it was with special view of closing
the long negotiation that Kurino was
taken from his important post in the
japanese foreign Lofflce and sent to
Washington. The event also will cause
much comment in Great Britain
France. Switzerland and other foreign
countries, as the action of the United
States affects similar treaties abroad
That with Great Britain as closed and
the ones with France and Switzerland
are largely dependent upon the close OF
the American negotiations.

THE STEEL KING TALKS.
Carnegie Against Any Changes in
the Monetary System of the Coun-
try.

Pittsburg, Nov 23.-Andrew Carne-
gle, the steel king, who has been in the
city for ten days, inspecting his great
plants, returned to New York tonight.
Before leaving, he talked on the bust
ness outlook. In the course of the in
terview he said:
This is not, in my opinion, the time
when any valuable forecast can be
made. 1t is reported we are toshave a
sensational presidential message look
ing to a. change in our currency sys-
TEN. No matter whether the scheme
would be better that that which We
have, still the waters would be
troubled and business must suffer. You
know that if you wish to rebuild your
house and live in it, no matter how
much you are going to improve (and
all changes are not improvements, by
any means) you cannot enjoy undis-
turbed repose, neither can a nation.
This is one objection to tinkering at
short intervals with any policy, tariff
or currency. It is bad enough with the
tariff, but it is highly dangerous when
the money and currency of nation
are tampered with. These are the
blood of the whole system, industrial,
agricultural, comercial and financial.
The richest man down to the boot
black is vitality affected by a change in
money.
The nation has had the greatest
shock since the civil war. and it is, in
my opinion, a mistake to look for a
speedy recovery. I do not believe any
| decided improvement can be made in
the financial system. 1t has worked
| splendidly, and one feature, which is to
agftators an objection, is really one of
it's decided advantages, really tends to
keep wild speculation within bounds,
as it does not expand to suit specula-
lative balloonish gentlemen who can
not get money for the asking, only be-
cause they have nothing upon which
prudent bankers wish TO take the risk
| of lending. General Grants words are
applicable today and full Of wisdom:
Let US have peace.

Based ON Expectations.

Dubuque, Iowa, Nov. 2S-The North
American Deposit and Investment
company was organized here by Isaac
Bates, of St. Paul While its stock
was fixed at S25.000 900. it never had
anything approaching such sum, nor,
in fact, anything at all.
Bates is said to have admitted that
the business of the concern was based
on expectations. The company has no
Office here, nor has it had for year.
Edward W. Duncan, the attorney, is
now a resident Of Salt Lake, Utah,
where he is cashier of prominent
bank.
