Ali Quiet at the Hole.

DENVER, Colo, July 23.-A spe-
cial to the News from Pocatello,
Idaho, says there is no truth in the
sensational reports sent out from
here regarding the outbreak Of In
dams and no demonstrations have
been made such as the Indians al
ways make before hostilities are
commenced. There is no excite
ment and no further trouble is an
ticipated. Indian Agent Teller is
at the scene Of the trouble with his
police to recall the Bannocks, which
will surely be done. Word reaches
this city that the Indians who
were killed at Jackson's Hole a
few days ago were brought back as
far as Gray's Lake and buried
there.

Charge Against Alleged Train Rob

GEORGETOWN, Texas, July 3D.
Especial. The criminal docket in
the District court was taken up
yesterday. The case against Nath.
and Tas. Dever, for conspiracy to
rob a train on the International
and Great Northern railroad, at
Palm Valley, over year ago, was
dismissed by District Attorney
Burleson. The boys were convicted
and sentenced to the penitentiary
at the last July term of court, and
remained in the county Jail until
two months ago, when the Court
of Appeals reversed the decision.
The young men are OF excellent
parentage and live here, and the
result of the case gives general sat
isfaction, owing to the extenuating
circumstances connected with it.

NEW YORK, July 23.-The World

California, who is well known in

curities. This is about as startling
proposition as was ever mooted
even in Wall street, that region of

wants to start big company or

mances about 1t, floats 1t on q
capitalization of a million. Men
and women invest their small
savings, in them, of course, and q
few months later the promoter
cleans up his winnings and buys a
brown stone house. Then he To-
Gates another hole in the ground,
repeats the program and lands a
lot more "come-on's." This Is
how Mr.. Stump described the pro-
cess last night. "The idea Is to
get reputable company to go into
mining. At present, it is a gamble
and the biggest buffer wins. There
are thousands Of mines in this
country that might be developed
and would be If there were some
wealthy concerns to develop them.
Here is an instance: l have in
my hand the prospectus Of mine
floated in the English market. The
promoters bought 1t for $4,000 and
they have capitalized at $500, 600.
Now, that is an inordinate profit
for them. While the mine may
probably earn money on the CAPT.
talization, 1 think that this meth
cd is fair neither to the original
owner of the mine nor to the in
vesting public.
If q mine owner wants to sell a
mine there Is no reason why he
should have to deal with sharpers,
who will cheat him and then cheat
the investors in the mining stocks.
If concern was equipped with the
best mining experts they could do
1t for a small percentage. AS re-
suit, mining stocks representing
an outlay OF money only and not
an output of wind would pay divi-
dends and would be dealt In by
conservative investors. II solid
company certified that they had
paid 30 much for a mine on the
basis OF such terms the investor
would know where he stood"
