GREAT PERALTA CASE OUT OF COURT
End OF the Most StupeDdous Fraud Ever
Attempted in This Country.

Santa Fe, N. M, June 25.-The great Per-
alta grant, situated in Arizona and New
Mexico and covering 900 acres of
land, which has been on trial for three
weeks, was decided today in favor of the
government. The court held every title
paper to be forged and manufactured and
that the mission records of San Salvador,
California, were forged to enable the
wife of the claimant to connect herself
with the Peralta family. Chief Justice
Reed announced that IT was not neces-
sary to determine who Mrs. Peralta-
Reavis was, but it was sufficient to hold
she was not the heir of the alleged grant,
nor entitled to maintain the suit. Upon
his advisement Reavis was arrested by
the United States marshal for asserting
false claims upon complaint made by
United States Attorney Reynolds, under
instructions by Attorney General Olney,
given before he left the department of
justice. This practically ends the most
stupendous fraud ever attempted in the
country and successfully carried for
quarter of a century.

BY TELEPHONE TO LONG CREEK
pendleton viii Have Connection With a
Region Long Isolated.

Pendleton, June 25.-This city VIII soon
be connected with Long Greek by tele-
phone. Crews of men are now at work
stringing and laying poles, and telephones
are in operation for distance of about
20 miles. When Long Creek, 100 miles dis
tant, has been reached. the extension to
Burns will be made, and Grant county
will have it's first telephone line. 1t is a
remarkable fact that the county of Grant
has not one mile of railroad. telegraph or
telephone line; not mile of express route
nor a bank within its limits. 1t is rich in
all the resources of mineral, stock, agri-
cultural and lumber industries, but has
never been developed. The people there
do not expect ever to have a railroad.

BONDS HAVE PROBABLY BEEN PAID
Gold Surplus Reserve Has Reached the
Sum of SI07,H5OOOO.

New York, June 25-Wall street is full
of rumors as to the bond syndicate opera
tions and the treasury department.
Neither Mr.. Morgan nor Mr.. Belmont will
talk on the subject and Sub-Treasurer
Jordan will make no statement in connec-
ton with the matter beyond this fact,
that the gold surplus of the treasury will
within twenty-four hours be S107, ,O00
1t is understood that this sum is reached
by settlement of the bond syndicate's in
debtedness to the government as regards
the payment of bonds. 1t is believed
further that the bond syndicate either has
received or will at once receive the full
amount of bonds due it.
Chicago, June "a special from New
York says: 1t is rumored in financial cir
Giles that the Belmont-Morgan syndicate
is closing up its transactions with the
government; that the balance of bonds
sold in European account will soon be
delivered in London, and the members of
the syndicate would then receive from
the managers thereof their share of the
profits of the transaction.

lNclTED THE CHANG Tu ouTRAeEs
Chinese Officials Urged the Mob TO At.
tack Missionary Property.

London. June PA special dispatch
from Shanghai says details have been
received there of outrages on American
and other foreigners at Chang Tu, CAPT
tai of the province of Szechuen, showing
their sufferings to have been appalling.
The viceroy, it appears, encouraged a
Chinese mob to destroy missionary and
other property. 1t is reported that the
Chinese officials attempted to behead
Bishop Danan. The French minister at
Pekin has sent an ultimatum to the vice
roy of Naukung demanding a prompt
redress of the wrongs done foreigners and
announcing that in the event of non-com-
pliance with the demands of France the
commander of the French squadron will
be empowered to act at his discretion.

SALISBURY FAVORABLE TO sILvE
McGreary Hopes for Good Results From
the New Ministry.

Louisville, Ky, June 24.-Hon. James
McCreary, chairman of the house COM
mittee on foreign affairs. is in the city
to attend the state convention and is
running against Blackburn for chair
man of the committee on resolutions
McCreary was a member of the inter-
national monetary conference which
met in Brussels in 1892. When seen to-
day by a representative of the Asso-
ciated Press, Mr.. McCreary stated that
his experience with the English mem
bers of that conference gives him as
surance that the advent of the Sails
bury ministry will be in the interest Of
bimetallism, as Lord Salisbury, Bal
four and others were more favorable
than Rosebery and his associates for
such conference. Mr. McCreary said
he was more hopeful now than before.
He not only regarded Lord Salisburh
as friendly to an international mone-
tary agreement, but also as a very
great statesman, who will be more lib
eral in his general policy than Rose
berry. There were active friends in En-
gland of bimetallism and Lord Sails
bury would recognize them. Although
England had maintained a gold stand
ard since 1916 McCreary had no doubt
that bimetallism had many friends
among manufacturers, agriculturists
and business men.

CHILL HOUSE OF CONGRESS BURNED
All the Archives Destroyed-The Presi-
dent Asks for New Plans.

dent ASKS TOT New Plans.
Washington, June 24.-Minister Strobel
at Santiago has sent the state depart
ment the following:
Il regret to report the destruction by
fire of the building occupied by the house
of congress. The edifice was regarded as
the finest in Chill and but little of the
furniture or archives were saved The
loss is estimated at about million dollars
United States gold, without considering
the archives, which can never be re-
placed. The building was begun in 1857,
but was not dedicated until 1876 during
the presidency of Frederick Errazuris.
While there are rumors that the fire was
the work of incendiaries, il seems to be
more likely the result of acc dent. There
were several lighted stoves in the build
ing which were being left alight and
probably caused an explosion by escaping
gas. The government has called for plans
for new building, notifying congress that
on their completion they will ask for
funds for construction. An extra session
of congress called to consider the financial
question is now being held at the univer-
sity."

could not prevent collision. Most Of the

able to get off before the accident oc.
Cured, but the motorman stuck to his

The Remarkable Find OF TWO Prospect.
ors in Arizona.

Hackbury. Ariz., June 25.-From Peach
Springs comes the story of the finding of
a nugget or bowlder of pure silver such as
there has been no record of in the history
of mining in the west. The bowlder
weighed half a ton and it's value is any
where from $1,000 to $4,000. 1t was found
by William Tucker and John Doyle both
old prospecors, and they have kept the
facts TO themselves heretofore, because
of chance that there was more silver
where this lump came from, and they de-
sired to get the best location for them
selves before letting the rest of the world
into the secret.
