Goidites Try to Force Another Bond Issue

Washington: While the report that
the Morgan Rothschild bond syndicate
is securing a corner on the gold market
is not quite correct, yet it is fact that
brokers have, for this syndicate, been
paying a premium for the refined
gold output of the private refineries In
the west during the last two months
and that they are accommodating fine
gold at the rate of 81, 900, 900 per month,
which represents fully two-thirds of
the entire output of the United States
Well-posted fnanciers who are familiar
with the methods of the parties com
posing the syndicate have reached the
conclusion that the foundation is being
laid for another bond deal before con-
gress meets again. The last bond deal
of S62, 100000 has been pretty well
closed out, and, as under the terms of
the contract with the treasury de part
ment the syndicate has an option on
any new bonds that may be issued by
the government prior to October, the
treasury is absolutely in their power.

Husband and wife Burned to Death.

Mr.. and Mrs. Frank Hale were
burned to death at a. IN. at Mid
Land. There are mysterious cir
cumstances surrounding the tragedy.
Mr. Hale came from Clio early in the
week, and stayed with his father until
ne made arrangements for the house
In which his death occurred. When
looking over the house Mr.. Hale found
q pile of papers in one corner of a
rear room and n ball of wicking
saturated with oil and lying on the
window, as if some one had made
preparations TO set the building on
fire This made him hesitate about
moving. but his wife was anxious TO
get settled, and he finally moved his
goods late at night.
During this fire the residence of
Thomas Haley, in another part of the
city, was burning and was entirely
consumed. This is the fifth suspicious
fire in FIVE days. 1t is not believed
that the burning of Mr.. and Mrs. Hale
was intentional, but that the same
persons who are responsible for the
other fires, had determined TO burn
this building, which had been empty
for several days, and were unaware
that il had since been occupied

Michigan Fru,t Not Injured.

The sudden and severe cold snap
which followed the hot weather of the
first 10 DAYS of May caused fruit rails

crops would bc injured by frost, but a
number of kilograms from various sec
tions say that while the weather was
very cold high winds prevented seri-
Gus frosts and the various crops were
not harmed.
Reports from Illinois, Iowa, Wiscon-
sin, Minnesota, and Missouri and
farther west are not so reassuring,
heavy frost having caused serious
damage.

MAY AND DECEMBER
Blended into One by the Hardest Storm

Blended into One by the Hardest storm
of the years to IL Inches of Snow.
A storm with many of the character
istics of wild western blizzard blew
across Michigan after it had done all
the damage it could in the west and in
Wisconsin. The extremely warm
weather of the first week in Nav was
followed by rains which grew colder
and colder until they finally became
heavy snow storms, as heavy in fact as
any of the past winter. From the
most southern point on the lake Mich
igan shore as far north as communica-
ton could be had was a continuous
storm swept territory, which includes
the entire fruit belt of the state. The
snow fell to n depth of foot in the
upper peninsula and in the upper part
of the lower peninsula it lay on the
ground foot and n half deep In
upper Michigan the thermometer reg
istered degree or two below freezing
point, but in the lower part it lowered
just above. In many sections the snow
was so heavy that the trees which had
foliaged out, had their limbs broken
by the weight Fruit trees suffered
from this cause. In western Michigan,
in the fruit belt rain fell all day,
which apparently was q benefit to
crops, but as night approached, the
temperature fell and melting snow
came down. The only thing which
saved any portion of the fruit crops
was the fact that the snow was not
followed by a heavy freeze.

slack" Pine rs a Valuable Wood. @

"Jaclx" Pine Valuable Wood. @
A problem which has confronted the
residents of Michigan numbering dis
tricts for years was how to dispose of
the great amount of lack" pine
which is found throughout the entire
pine regions of the northern part of
the lower and n greater part of the
upper peninsula, the timber and lands
upon which it has grown having up to
date not been worth the recording of
the deeds after the viii and Norway
pine had been taken off. The solution
of the question has been found by w.
NJ. Featherlv, publisher of the Lake
side Monitor, Au Sable, who believed
that the lack" had the necessary
qualities to make a frst-class paper
pulp. With the courage of the con-
viction, Mr.. Featherly secured the
services of A. f. Neumann, a mechan-
ical and chemical engineer and paper
maker expert, who few days since
made a thorough test of the timber at
Georgetown, Ont, and now has the
satisfaction of knowing that he was
right. A large pulp and paper mill
will be erected at Au Sable TO grind
out pulp and paper at the rate of 40
tons per day. a stock company of
$3.50, 900 capital is being formed and
operations of construction will soon be
commenced. The pulp from lack"
pine is more valuable and more easily
made than is that from any other
timber. Previous efforts TO make
paper pulp from lack" pine by differ
ent paper makers were failures until
the services of Mr.. Neumann were Sc
cured by Mr.. Featherly.

and with him were Mrs. James Waterbury
and Mrs. Oliver Hartman, Jr. The AS
tors and all the other leaders of society
were present, so that there was wonder
full display of dress. Moreover, the at
tendance of the rank and file of New York
ers was great on account of the expecta-
ton that the duke and his bride would be
visible, so that the horses were altogether
secondary in point of interest. A thou
sand men and women, principally the lat
ter, almost fought for glimpse of the sec
tion in which nobility sat.

Always Active in the Protection of Ameri-

WASHINGTON, Nov. 14-The state de-
partment has received circular prepared
for publication by the Rev II. o. Dwight,
who is specially charged with watching
over the interests of our missionaries in
Turkey. DIR. Dwight says that the general
allegation that Mr.. Terrell has been care
less in protecting American citizens in
Turkey rests on no foundation whatever,
for Mr.. Terrell has freely consulted them
in every important crisis and has shown
great willingness to give weight to their
opinions.
There is not a shadow of doubt, he says,
that the maintenance of the Bitlis station
during the fiery trials of the past year, the
exemption of its members from molesta-
tion, and perhaps the saving Of their very
lives, has been due TO the sustained and
vigorous action of Mr. Terrell at the sub
lime porte And in every case where an
Armenian naturalized citizen has been
molested Mr.. Terrell has interfered sharply
and effectively to prevent unlawful pun
ishment
