FOR FIVE HOURS ON FRIDAY
FEBRUARY 90, 1895.
Over 600 People Take Possession OF the
Prison, Look at the Boys, and Eat.

NAA~~
Perhaps at no time IN the PRISONS history. has
so great crowd assembled behind its walls as
were here Friday. Aside from its being legal
holiday. when the inmates are treated to an
entertainment and other privileges. the men,
bers OF the 29th legislature were expected. which
added considerably to the usual interest taken
in the holiday exercises; but the magnitude of
the crowd that entered the prison yards shortly
after the noon hour fairly took the breath away
from every official and inmate of the institution.
Promptly at S:45 a. m. Deputy Lemon gave the
signal. the brakes were thrown. and the inmates
filed into the chapel. where Warden Wolfer en-
tered few minutes later escOrtlng the speaker OF
the day, Rev. Mr. Carson of the Central Presby-
terian Church of st. Paul Mrs. Wofer. Master
Frank and Miss Gertie Welfer. Mrs. Lemon and
daughter Gladys. and Master Paul Albert and
other friends. The Warden introduced the
speaker, briefly saying; That in view OF the
lengthy program given on Lincoln's day, which
while not strictly legal holiday this year. he
had decided to give them, the exercises in the
chapel would be short. and they would be per-
mitted to enjoy longer time than usual in the
large paint shop. He, also, stated. that as the
members of the legislature were going to take
possession of the prison today. 10 had been decl-
ded to let the inmates go to their respective
shops u the afternoon, as the honorable body
would find more interest in their visit to see the
machinery moving, and the men would no doubt
be better satisfied than to be compelled to occu-
py their cells during the entire afternoon; that
there would be no holiday docking of earnings;
| wages would run on just the same.'' A quar-
tette comprised of members of the prison choir
then sang. LET the Lower Lights be Burning

New Behring Sea Bill.

Washington, June At is stated at
the British embassy that the new Behr-
ing sea bill, which Sir Edward Gray
announced in the house of commons
yesterday, is on perfecting the phrase
ology of the present act. Without al
tering or extending the substantial fea-
lures of the present act, it will not, it
is said, enlarge the zone or extend the
closed season, as they are fixed by the
Paris award, and are not subject to va
riety until new award is made. Of
this, both governments seem to agree,
however, that the protected zone
should be extended from sixty to 2, 900
miles, as expert testimony establishes
it as fact that the female seal goes
far outside the sixty-m limit, and
can be slaughtered without regard to
the government patrol.
A change in this particular cannot
be effected, however, until the govern
ments have further conference. Sir
Julian Pauncefote, the British ambas-
sador, sails Tuesday next for his sum-
mer vacation in Great Britain. He
will probably be in London when the
Behring sea bill is introduced and de-
bated, but he does not anticipate that
the debate will be of any significance
on the general subject.

Seattle, June Edgar Ames and
George Pascal, the latter accompanied
by his wife, arrived from st. Louis to-
day to take an active part in the man
agement of the construction of the Lake
Washington canal and filling the tide
flats. They say that the subsidy of
$500, 900 raised by the people of Seattle
is entirely satisfactory, and speak high
" of the public spirit of the city in
raising it. They say that the whole
undertaking involving an expenditure
of 81, 900, 900, will be carried out with
out interruption, as the st. Louis capt.
talists intend to complete it as whole
to fill in all the Seattle tide flats and
complete the canal to Lake Washing
ton. The financial arrangements have
all been completed, and the work will
go right ahead, as all the capital is
available without any 'ifs'' whatever.
They also say that large amount of
St Louis capital and many St. Louis
people, whose interest in Seattle and
the state of Washington has been
aroused by this enterprise, will come
here this summer.

The MarbIehead's Timely Arrival.

Peoria, ILL.,, June ga private let
ter received in this city from Beyrout,
Syria, under the date of May Z, con-
tains the following important state
ment:
The two United States men-of-war
that came here created quite a stir
Only one, the Marblehead, came to
Beyrout, but she met the San Fran
cisco at Alexandria and the admiral on
board the San Francisco sent for the
Turkish Pasha to come down from
Adana to Mersine to meet him, and
gave him very plain talking to about
showing proper respect for American
citizens. Admiral Kirkland is big,
bluff, old fellow, just the one to bull
doze the Turks, and he did it in style.
The Turks have been quite nasty up
there of late.
A great impression was created in
Beyrout, too. People here had fears
of a massacre by the Moslems, and
thought the arrival of the frigate pre-
vented it.

FISCAL YEARS DEFICIT.
Treasury Oficials Confident of a Good
Showing This Month.

Showing This Month.
Washington, June 4.-Treasury Of
Gals are now confident that the fiscal
year, which ends one month hence,
will show deficiency of not more than
$44, 100000, and possibly not more
than $43, 100000, which is at least,
IS, 900, 900 less than was expected only
a few weeks ago, and $3,000,000 or
81, 000,0 900 less than the present fig
ures. 1t is shown that the pension
payments during June will be at least
$25, 10000 less than for May, and
that the payments on account of inter-
est will also be reduced 81, 500, 900.
With an increase in the internal reve-
nue. of 50, 900, 900 on account of special
liquor, tobacco and oleomargarine Ii
censes, which must be paid before
July 1, and very material reductions
in pensions and interest payments, it
is confidently expected that next month
will show small surplus, with the
deficit further reduced to at least $44, =
100000 July, however, is likely to
see the deficit increased by at least
$40, 1000, 900, for that months interest
payments will aggregate about 81, 900, :
600. Disbursements in every branch
of the government are usually much
heavier in July than in any other
month, so that unless they are increas-
ed, the deficit August 1, next, will not
be likely to fall much short of $780,
900, 900 for the thirteen months.

pENvERs BIG EXPOSITION.
The Mines and Industries of the Trans
Mississippi Country.

The Mines and Industries Of the Trans
Mississippi Country.
Denver, June 4.-The managers OF
the proposed mining and industrial ex-
position have issued statement to the
public setting forth what has already.
been accomplished and what it is pro-
posed to do. They say: yf
1.-THE results to date of the canvass
for subscriptions justifies the statement
that ample financial aid will be OBJ
tanned, and the selection of the site
ends the important work of the COM
mittee and warrants the announcement
that the success of the exposition is now
practically assured. Active work will
begin at once.
"Since the national mining and in
dustrial exposition, held in Denver in
1882, which proved great factor IN
the subsequent development of Colo
RADIO and Denver, there has been no
exposition of the resources and indus
trial progress of the trans Mississippi
country. Since that time the country
west of the Mississippi has increased in
population so per cent; it has added
five new states to the Union; it has
built 5000 additional miles of rail
road, and has given to the world I'M
told millions in the products OF the
mines, farms, fields and factories. This
great region is the producing belt Of
the world. 1t constitutes two-thirds
of the area of the United States, and Ii
the home of 1T, 900, 900 of the nations
most progressive people"
Among the reasons urged for holding
an exposition at this time are:
First to commemorate the close O.
the centennial of the purchase OF thu
territory of Louisiana; second to cele
brate the progress of the trans-Mississ
ippi country in it's mining, agricultur
al, educational, manufacturing, histor
ical and industrial advancement in al
their departments; third, to celebrat
Colorado's twentieth anniversary as
state"

Another Expedition Fitting Out.

Havana, June T. The authorities
have information of an expedition from
Dauphin island and other places in the
bay of the Mississippi river, which is
being fitted out with a considerable
armed force to aid the rebels here. The
United States authorities and the
Spanish legation at Washington have
been notified and informed of all the
movements of the expedition and the
names of the ships in use. The au-
thorities have their eyes upon some of
the suspicious movements about Mobile,
Ala.
In reply to direct inquiries, the acting
captain general says there is no truth
whatever in recent reports that Marti
is still alive. He says the corpse of
Marti has been identified beyond all
question. No news concerning Maxi
mo Gomez has been received since May
80, the day of the fight at Dosbido,
where Marti was killed and Gomez re-
ported wounded. The acting captain
general says that the reports that Marti
is still alive are being circulated by
Cubans for the express purpose of keep
ing up the courage of the people in
terested in the expedition now rendez-
vousing at Dauphin island.

AN OFFICIAL INQUIRY.
The Government Will Investigate the
Faulty Loading OF the Colima.

The Government Will Investigate the
Faulty Loading OF the Colima.
San Francisco, June 6.-The federal
government is said to have decided to
make thorough investigation of the
Colima disaster, which cost so many
lives. 1t is not improbable that the
state authorities may take hand in
the affair, and there is already talk of
criminal proceedings. These, however,
are not yet a certainty.
The federal inquiry will be insti-
tuted by Messrs. Talbot and Hillman,
the inspectors of hulls and boilers.
They are watching now for the return
of the steamer San Juan, which is ex-
pected to enter this port Friday. AS
soon as she arrives, the third officer,
o. Hanson, and all the survivors who
may be on board, will be summoned as
witnesses to an Investigation which will
be instituted without delay. The in
quiry, it it intended, shall be thorough
in every respect.
One of the first questions to be dis
cussed in the investigation is the man
ner in which the ship was loaded.
Charges of the most serious character
have been made, and if there be any
truth in them it will be discovered.
The most serious allegation in this
part of the affair is that the ship was
negligently loaded.

OUR METAL PRODUCTION,
The Great Decrease Last Year Compared
With the Year Before.

With the Year Before.
New York, June 4.-According to
the Engineering and Mining Journal,
the total value of the mineral and
metal productions of the United States
in 1898 and 1894 was: 1898, $685.
S46,S06 1894, 1858, 27s, 9O2, decline
OF about 500, 573, 904, or per cent.
This great falling off was however, due
far more to lower prices than a les
sened quantity of the product. Thus
the value of the coal production de-
clined last year $138, 1888, 82S, or 7 per
cent, while in quantity it fell off only
6,220,970 short tons, or 10 per cent.
This small decline in the volume of
the coal product is substantially the
measure of the whole mineral output of
the country.
The copper output increased s Der
cent, from 322, 1855, 1888 pounds in 1888.
to 1853, 5O4, 314 pounds in 1894, though
in value it declined no less than
81, $50, 500 or A 1-2 per cent.
The production of gold increased
from $S5, 800, 900 in 1898 to $50, 761 200
in 1894, but the commercial value of
silver produced declined from Sat-
311, 400 in 1898, to $31 ,4O5, 5S1 in 1884.
fall of $15, 1907, 929, or "a per cent.
This was partly due to the reduced pro.
duction, but the price also declined
from 100 per ounce in 1898, to 63 in
1894. Other mineral industries made
highly satisfactory record in 1894.
With reviving prosperity and prices
the product will reap the harvest which
was planted in hard times.
