SECOND EDITION.
AT O'BRIEN'S.

Darkest Russia" H. Grattan Don nelly's brilliant romantic drama, was the attraction at O'Brien's last night and large audience assembled, despite the op- pressive heat, to witness it. In this play MT. Donnelly has won laurels which lar surpass any he has ever earned before It is a play strong in realism, full ot startling and brilliant situations and re- plete with humorous and sentimental slt- uationS.
 Much has been written of the cruelties perpetrated by minions of the Czar or Russia and the play deals largely with them Intligues are interwoyen with love scenes and from beginning to end Dark est Russia" is interesting to a marked de- gree. ..,-
 The cast is strong and for once is with out any particular stellar attraction, as all are on parity and of the best.
 To single out any one individual char acter would be an injustice to the others, as each from the leading character to the sentry on duty at military post Tn Sl- beria. won applause. Too much cannot be said of the play and players, and they can best be appreciated by seeing.
 The scenery and effects are excellent and in full keeping with the remalnder of the performance. Especially me IS the transformation in the last act, when in A few moments the scene is shifted from the interior of a building to view of a prison stockade with hills ana noun tains covered with snow.
 This afternoon at matinee and agaln tonight Darkest Russia Will De put OH and full houses should greet each per formance, as they are entitled to them.

STATEMENT FROM THE SYNDICATE.

It Will Continue to Deposit Long as
 Necessary and Feasible.
 New York, Sept 13.-In respect to the gold engaged in this city today for ship ment by tomorrow's steamer the United Press is authorized by the bond syndi- cate to make the following statement:
 The impression has become general that the members of the bond syndicate entered into an agreement with the United States this year to maintain the $100 000 900 reserve until October 1, prox- imO and that upon that date said obliga- tion will cease and terminate. Such is not the case. The bond syndicate full filled all it's obligations to the govern ment in June last and has not since been bound in any way to the treasury. It is true that 1t has from time to time. since June last, paid over various sums in gold coin to the treasury which have has done so voluntarily and will continue to do so in the same spirit and for the same motive. So far as October Is con- cerned, 1t has no relation to the action of the bond syndicate. and it will con- tinue to deposit gold until the 1st of No- Vember and the 1st of December and the 1st of January If necessary and if exist ing conditions make 1t feasible to do SO. But neither the bond syndicate nor any one else can control the elements The idea that it's relations to the treasury situation will be any different on or after october 1 from what they are now and have been all along is erroneous

TREASURY GENERAL BALANCE
Shows Deficit So Far Of S14 GOO, ,Co0-As to Gold.

to u Old.
 Washington, Sept. 13.-The treasury general balance today is $1S1 .962, GOO. of which $9a,56S 900 is in gold. The deficit so far this year is s14o00. .00O, and with the revenues running at present figures this deficit by January l next will approxi- mate $25, ,000, COG or $3O, ,000,0 900.
 The amount realized by the three bond issues made within the past two years exceeds by only $6,000, 900 the total treas ury balance today, so without the issues there would now be an empty treasury With a full treasury of course it follows that gold can always be had, but with treasury depleted by expenditures ex- ceeding the revenues. and with the tide of commercial exchange against us, gold is difficult to retain in the treasury. The advices received at the treasury depart ment said that S4.200, 900 in gold had been today withdrawn for export and $900000 in gold had been deposited, making the net loss for the day $3,300.000. This re- duces the gold reserve to 98,2sS,574.
 The features of the day as viewed from here were the appearance of LaZard Freres as a gold exporter; the deposit by the Hanover National bank of $500, 900 in gold; the large demand for United States notes at southwestern points in exchange

such lands shall not be assessed above
the purchase price paid the government
therefor, such a provision is nos u limita-
ton of the power of the state board OF
equalization TO increase or add to such
lands such per centum as they may think
advisable under the law. If any part OF
the surface ground of mining claim Is
used for other than mining purposes, and
has separate and independent value,
such surface ground shall be taxed at Its
value for such purposes. Therefore the
action of the board in raising the value OF
such property has determined that the
surface ground OF such coal lands is not
only used for other than mining purposes,
but has separate and independent
value; hence the increase of such assess-
ment is legal and binding upon tho reve-
nue. officers of the county and compels
them 20 enforce the collection of the tax
thereon. If the persons assessed for such
lands refuse to pay the tax they would be
compelled to resort to the courts to de-
termine the question whether the action
of the board or the officers OF the county
was in excess of their jurisdiction and the
authority delegated to them under the
law. You arc advised that such taxes are
legal and that the Same should bo col
lectcd."
Upon receipt of this opinion the county
treasurer included in the list of delinquent
prorcrty all the mineral lands upon which
taxes had not been paid, and he Is now
advertising them for sale. There seems
TO be n diversity of opinion among the law
yers of this city as to tine legality of the
20 per cent raise, Notwithstanding the
ground taken by the attorney general.
The Rocky Fork Coal company, therefore,
decided to make n test case OF the matter,
| and has brought suit against the county
treasurer as stated. At tho time the ac-
ton was instituted the company placed in
/ the hands of the district clerk the amount
of the original assessment, which is ST.
| 41l.G0.
The complaint alleges that the com
| pany's lands are only valuable for coal
| purposes; that before taxes became de-
/ linquent the plaintiffs rendered in cash
| the amount of 81 ,4ll.60, but that the treas
urer refused to accept this sum, demand
ing Sl.923; that plaintiffs now tender the
amount of their taxes on Goa
lands at an assessed valuation
of $50 per acre to the district court. The
complaint further alleges that by reason
of the unlawful raise there now stands
the sum of Si2I.67 unlawfully assessed
against the company and that unless re
strained by order of the court the treas
urer will sell the lands for taxes. Where
fore the plaintiff prays judgment that thu
treasurer be restrained from selling the
lands, pending determination of suit, auC
that upon final hearing OF the case the
temporary injunction be made perpetual
and that the taxes wrongfully levied b.
declared illegal and void, and that the
plaintiffs be given judgment for costs o

M'GARRAHAN'S CLAIM.
Once More tho Celebrated Case Is Before
Congress.

once moro inc Ceiebrateu Sdse Is beAoTo

WASHINGTON, Jan. 5.-Senator Teller,
who was the special champion in the SEN
ate of the late William McGarrahan in
his effort to establish a claim to the
Rancho Grande land grant in California,
says he will not continue his labor in
behalf of McGarrahan's heirs.
II supported McGarrahan because l be-
lieved an injustice had been done him and
not because of the money involved. Nc
Garrahan took that position himself, and
when the money was offered he refused to
compromise. Now that the heirs have ta-
kon up the contest, they have done so
purely for the sake of the property which
is supposed to be involved and not for the
establishment of principle"
The bill. it may be stated, passed the
senate and has been favorably reported
from the committee in the house. 1t
merely provides for submitting McGarra-
hams claims to the court of private land
claims.

an Interesting Suit.

The Rocky Fork Coal Company Bring,
an Interesting suit.
Special Dispatch TO the Standard.
LIVINGSTON, Jan. 5.-A case, the out
come of which will be awaited with con-
siderable interest by the owners of coal
lands in the various counties Of the state
was commenced in the district court of
Park county yesterday by the Rocky Fork
Coal company of Red Lodge against the
treasurer of this county for the purpose of
restraining him from selling tho COM
pany's coal lands for taxes.
The case grows out of the action of the
state board of equalization IN ordering a
raise OF 20 per cent. on the assessed val
uation of all mineral lands as placed by
the various county assessors and county
boards of equalization. Such lands were
originally assessed at SO per acre, the
purchase price paid the government there
for. The Rocky Fork Coal company con-
tends that the raise of p per cent. is lie
cal. being contrary 10 section Of an act
concerning revenues which was enacted
by the Montana legislative assembly and
approved March Is, 1871, and which pro-
vidcs that all mineral lands shall be as
s7ssed at the purchase price paid the goy-
crnmcnt therefor, namely. SD per acre.
