BIG MINT STEALS.
Suspects at Carson Mint Shad-
owed by Detectives.
Shortages of 100000 Have Been
Discovered Already.
NO ONE CAN ESCAPE.
The Principal Suspect is Refner
Jones.

CARSON, New, April disappointment
emit Mason. of the government assay
Office in New York, has been in full
charge of the mint scandal investiga-
ton here for two weeks. He has al
ready discovered shortages that ap-
proximate about $780, OOO and all
the suspected melts have not yet
been examined. The town is full
of secret service detectives, who are
under the control of Agent Grant,
of Chicago, and they are shadowing
suspected officials and learning the his
tory OF their recent extravagant habits.
None of those suspected can escape.
The greatest steal yet discovered in
one melt was unearthed by Superin-
tendent Mason a few days ago. He
found that one run of melt, which pur-
ported to contain 2, 200 ounces, half gold
half silver. had but forty ounces of gold.
The shortage in this melt, therefore,
was about $22, 900. The incipal man
under suspicion is Assistant Meter
and Refner John Jones, who has been
in office under Hirsch Harris, and who
came to him as d hO1o-over from the
Harrison administration. The detec-
tives are at work on Jones record, and
they claim to have discovered that he
has been spending $500 to 5000 a month
on an income Of 1925. He was first sus-
pected by Hirsch Harris. Harris relied
largely on Jones, the practical man in
the department, but grew very suspi-
cious when bars that ought to have come
out with a large percentage of gold
were returned nearly pure silver. He
reported the shortage to ex-Gov. Jewell
Adams, superintendent of the ID int.
The shortage was Immediately re-
ported to R. E. Preston, superintend-
emit of the mint at Washington, and
Expert Assayer Mason was forthwith
dispatched here to investigate. The
crimes were committed by the substi-
tuition of bars, and it is known that
the frauds extend over a period of five
or six years.
ATTEMPT TO BURN A TENEMENT.
New YORK, April 6.-For the third
time within ten weeks an attempt was
made early yesterday morning to burn
the fve-story building, 10S Eighth ave-
nue., in which there were thirteen fam
lilies. This mornings fire was started
on the ground floor in the hallway,
just as the other two fires We're. The
tenants believe, too, that some drug
was put with the materials set on fire,
as the fumes arose through the house
supplying them. The motive of the
incendiary, it is surmised, was robbery.
Nothing was taken, as the fire was dis
| covered early.

TRADE REPORT.
The Volume of Retail Business at Thfi
Time Larger Than Last Year.

The Volume of Retail Business at This
Time Larger Than Last Year.
NEW YORK, April 6.-R. 6. Dun &
Co. s Weekly Review of Trade says:
Returns showing the condition of re-
tail trade in March throughout the
country and the distribution of goods
of final comparison with the same
month in 1894 and 1898, give gratifying
evidence that in most trades and
districts marked improvement over
1894 is realized, though on the whole
trade is smaller than in 1898. Every
where, also, the occurrence of Easter
in March last year, but in April this
year, is found to account for much diff
ference in the volume of retail trade
in quantities of goods sold. 1t is,
nevertheless, larger than last year,
but on the whole smaller than 1898.
The main difference in comparison
with 1893 is found in the general de-
cline of prices, which makes trade in
value smaller. even where it is clearly
as large or larger in quantity.
Accounts from the chief centers of
wholesale trade are also encouraging
this week. There is not only hope
full spirit, but there are real gains in
business, though not equally dis
tributed geographically or as to
branches of trade. The best news from
the industries is that labor troubles
have been settled or avoided, Mahon-
ing iron and eastern wooden mills be-
ing again active. Next in Importance
is the better demand for manufactured
articles, which gives greater reason to
hope that recent advances from the
bottom may prove successful.
The cotton manufacture once stimu-
lated by the rise in raw cotton, goes
on gaining, though cotton has halted.
Better demand appears for many quail
tiles, and in some, slight advances in
price. Sales of wool reflect the re-
newed confidence of manufacturers, as
strikes are out of the way, for 8, 675. 100
pounds were sold last week, against
4,64s, 200 last year. No rise in prices is
seen or expected, in view of heavy
sales and receipts of foreign wool

THE INCOME TAX,
The Supreme Court HopeIessIy divided
Aeainst It.

Against 1t
WASHINGTON. April 6.-This is the
last day remaining in which the United
States supreme court can render an
opinion as to the constitutionality of
the income tax before the time limit
expires, by which returns can be
made without becoming liable
to the so per cent. penalty. After
holding nearly a dozen and
half consultations the justices are un-
derstood to be still divided-three for
and five opposed to the tax. 1t was
claimed some time ago that an agree
ment had been reached to hold the mat
ter up till May unless decision could
be reached in favor of the tax. One
of the supreme court Justices called
upon Cleveland yesterday, and it is
said as a reason why a decision had
been postponed so long that the court
wished to discover whether it would
be possible for the treasury depart
revenue to be derived from in
come taxation. The announce
ment of the treasury officials here
tofore made that they would be
able to meet the current expenses
derived from the income tax, and at
the same time obviates the necessity
for an extra session, is believed to be
a proof that the administration is
aware that the supreme court is hope
lessly divided against the income tax.
THE PRESIDENTS INTENTION.
WASHINGTON, April 6.-There is a
furry of excitement IN inner admin
istration circles over what it is believed
the president intends to do in the
Venezuela controversy. 1t is claimed
that the president clearly indicated
yesterday at a cabinet meeting that he
did not like the position taken by
England in that matter; that he in
tended to enforce the Monroe doctrine,
no matter what the consequences.
This is supposed to mean war with
England provided John Bull is not in
the blufhng business. The clean cut
statement that England intends to
take a slice of territory from Venezuela
cannot be misunderstood and also the
polite but emphatic statement that it
was not the business of the United
States to interfere, making it more en-
phatic, gives the president, it is
claimed, an opportunity to take posi-
ton that may lead to trouble.
THE YANKToN LANDS.
WASHINGTON, April 6.-The procla-
nation for the opening of the Yank-
ton lands in South Dakota will not be
issued until there can be an investiga-
ton by the secretary of the interior
into the present contentious that
exist. Secretary Smith will deter
mine whether the state can select the
lands and if so whether it will not
be compelled also to pay for them at
the same price as agreed upon by the
treaty with the Indians. In the en-
abling act admitting South Dakota the
state was granted about so, 900 acres of
land. It is an open question whether
selections made of ceded Indian lands
would not mean that the state would
get them free of the charges which
settlers have to pay, 1878 per acre.
The proclamation will be withheld un-
til the questions are investigated.
