CARSON, New, April disappointment
emit Mason, of the government assay
office in New York, in charge of the
mint scandal investigation, has already
discovered shortages that approximate
500, 600, and all the suspected melts have
not yet been examined. The town
is full of secret service detectives
under the control of Agent Grant, of
Chicago. The greatest steal yet dis
covered in one melt was unearthed a
few days ago. One run or melt which
purported to contain 1900 ounces, half
gold, half silver, had but forty ounces
of gold. The shortage on this fraudu-
lent melt, therefore, was about 49,, 900.
The principal man under suspicion is a
melter and refiner, John Jones.

Or, In other words, Hoods Sarsapariiia'
is a universal noed. Ifgood health Is to
be expected during the coming season
the blood must be purified now. All the
germs of disease must be destroyed and
the bodily health built up. Hoods sar-
saparilla is the only true blood purifier
prominently in the public eye to-day.
Therefore Hoods Sarsaparilla Is the
best medicine to take in the spring. 1t
will help wonderfully in cases OF weak
ness, nervousness and all diseases
caused by impure blood.

on nder May he shot
YOKOHAMA, March ga resolution has
been submitted to the Japanese diet re-
gardng the attack upon Viceroy Ii Hung
Chang. who was shot and wounded in the
face yesterday at Shimoneski.
The bullet has not yet been extracted
from the face of Ii Hung Chang, but his
condition is favorable. He has no fever
and is suffering but little pain. His as
sailant, described as n political bravo,
rushed from the crowd whom the viceroy's
palanquin was passing. and fired at the
Chinese statesman. The bullet entered
the viceroy's left cheek. The affair caused
the greatest indignation here.
WASHINGTON, March 25.-Iuformation
coming TO the Chinese legation is to the
effect that Ii Hung Chang's wound is not
dangerous except as complications may
develop. Ii is in the fleshy part OF the
face. but fortunatelyno part of the skull
has been fractured or any vital organs
touched. Prince LIS advanced age and
several constitutional disorders which
make him about an invalid, may aggra-
vate a nowise harmful wound. On his ar
rival at Shimonseki he was too sick to
leave the ship which brought him.
He had to be carried about, this being a
necessity in his case as well as and honor
due his rank. Officials of the Japanese
legation say the offender will be charged
with treason as the assault is not only
against the person of Ii Hung Chang, but
against the Japanese government. IL Is
probable also that the trial will be by
court martial, and conviction by court
martial would mean that the offender
would be shot. Diplomats here are in
clined to believe that the entire peace ne
gotiations may be broken off by the as
sault. by affordinG pretext for European
interven tion. Officials here regard 1t a:
settled that China and Japan have
reached an understanding by which the
former will extend her territory south

practically unanimous in the belief that
action favorable to silver will be taken by
Germany, France and the United States.
A majority say the position of England Is

government of the German states will, by
my recommendation, make careful in-
quiry into the matter. As to the proposed
monetary conference l am being filled
with confidence as TO its results in order
that this veXatious question may at least
end in a solution satisfactory to all the
countries which have suffered from the
monetary calamities of the last few
years" Count Mirbach, one of the leaders
of the conservative party, said: "As soon
as Germany can secure the cooperation
of the powers mainly in terested, negotia-
tions to that effect are now going on, then
the conference will be called wherever
and whenever practicable. There is a
