Cured at Claverack of Ancram Living
stone, grandson of the late Gov. Van
Ness, and at one time reputed to be
one of the richest men in New York
state. He was II years old. Living
stone was the son of Henry Living
stone, once n prominent New Yorker.
Ancram's father died at the age of rs
years. The young man seemed to care
little for the enormous wealth he con-
trollcd, and the vast estate dwindled
away. By another death in the family
young Livingstone became possessed
of another fortune. He married, but
continued his carelessness in regard to
his affairs, and the second fortune final
ly went the way of the first. A third
fortune came into his control, but his
previous experiences apparently
taught him no lesson, for again the
money disappeared at rapid rate. He
was not drinker, nor had he any bad
habits. He had u habit of giving to ull
who appealed to him. He died poor
and almost friendless at the state
asylum.

Tho Financial Problem.
The point upon which he does de-
clare himself freely and unequivocally,
30 it is told, is upon the financial prob
lem. The president points out the cry
ing need of immediate legislation look
Ing to the raising of revenue. He does
not, it is understood, advocate any par

but he lays down in clear terms the
declaration that congress must be held
responsible for any disaster that may
follow delayed legislation.
Greenbacks Should Be Retired.
Mr.. Cleveland has been looked upon
us the source of Secretary Carlisle's
inspiration in his New York speech.
This suspicion, it is declared, is iusti-

hesitatingly that the greenbacks
should be retired. AS far as can be
learned the president has not favored
the raising of revenue by taxing beer
or bank checks. The tariff question
IS touched upon to the extent of de-
claring that, under normal conditions,
the present bill would yield sufficient
revenues.

NEW GOLD FIELDS,
Rich Discoveries Arc Made at Mercy
Utah.

Nich Discoveries Are Made at MercuH
Utah.
Salt Lake City, U. T.. Nov. 3d.
Recent discoveries of vast gold
fields have been made at A[ercur, about
65 miles south of Salt Lake City, which
give every Indication of making that
place not only the largest and richest
gold mining camp in America, but in
the world. For about two years only
one property has been operated, and
that by the Mercur Gold Mining and
Milling company, and in that period il
has paid dividends of over 100000. II
now appears that the valley for many
miles in every direction contains ore
equally as rich or richer than the Mer.
curcompany's property.
Within n very short period district
Of seven miles by three miles has been
almost entirely taken up, and fully
1000 miners and prospectors are at
work. Three new mills have been start.
ed up and are now operating even more
profitably than the origina; one. New
discoveries are being made daily, and
there is great excitement. The extent
OF the surface in which the ore is found
appears to be practically unlimited, and
the stock of numerous companies
which have been recently Incorporated
are eagerly sought for at from SO cents
to two dollars share.
The ore is of character different
from any other gold ore in the world.
1t bears some resemblance to quartz,
and is being treated by an adapted
cyanide process. 1t is medium grade,
running SIP to $14 to the ton, although
in spots it runs as high as 5000, but the
quantity of it seems to be practically
unlimited. English experts, who have
thoroughly examined the ground, say
that it is richer and more extensive
gold region than those of South Africa.
Pay ore is found at a depth of 200 feet,
