ALL MISSED "MARION."
Not One Of 900 Guesses On the Name
of the Presidents Baby was
Correct.

Washington, July 25.-In $3.50 guesses
received by an evening paper on the
probable name of the new Cleveland
baby, not one was correct. The largest
number of coupons containing duplicate
guesses bore the biblical name "Naomi."
The second in popular favor was
Frances" name good Americans
guessed because they loved it and wanted
it to win. The fact that the christian
name of Mrs. Carlisle had often been
mentioned for the baby, led 463 people
to guess "Jane." ''Gladys" was next with
422, "Martha" fifth with 31S, "Rachel"
sixth with s07, and "Mary" seventh with
300. The baby's name is Marion,

May Cut 1t short.

Washington, July 24.-Public men are
beginning to discuss the probability
of the length of the next session of con-
gress. Opinion is generally favorable to
a short session, and is based largely on
the belief that both parties will be de-
sirous of getting away at as early date
as possible. 1t is now believed by some
that Mr.. Reed, feeling practically certain
that he will be elected to the speakership,
has already virtually completed the house
committee list, and at any rate, he will be
able to announce his appointments very
soon after the convening of the houses
on the I'd of December. Should that
body get it's work we'll under way before
the Christmas holidays it would be a de-
cided innovation. Few congresses in re-
cent years have begun the session with
out this plan as part of their program,
and few have succeeded in putting it into
execution.

GOLD STANDARD DEFENSE.
A Leading London Financier Occupies
atOlumn Replying to President
OF British Timetable
League.

London, July 25.-The Times to-day
publishes column letter from Bertram
Currie, president of the Gold Standard
Defense association, in reply to state
ment of Henry G. Gibbs, director of the
Bank of England and president of the
British bimetallic league, IN the Times of
July 13. Currie says that in spite of the
time and labor spent in the controversy,
the bimetallic league is still silent as to
any specific plan, in which the bimetallic
theory is to be embodied as to proper
ratio, as to methods of enforcing the
ratio, or as to the consequences which
would follow its establishment. Summing
up, Currie says: "The bimetallsts are
enthusiastic, ill-advised agitators, instead
of practical reformers."

CATION, with an escort of 100 citizens Of
Fender, after ride of twenty-five miles
across Thurston county, entered the con.
fines of Capt. Beck's reservation when
Deputy Marshal Boehme swooped down
on William E. PEBBLES and John f.
Meyers, placing them under arrest as
conspirators against the government.
Capt. Beck said he proposed to execute
the laws as he found them, and wanted it
distinctly understood that he was re-
sponsible for the agency and the wards
of the government. The warrant also
included John G. Lennon, president of
the Flourney company, and George s.
Harris, who we're not present at the con-
ference with the Indians. The warrant
charges the men with conspiracy to op-
pose the government by force, and that,
to effect the object of the conspiracy,
they armed 200 farmers and sent them on
the reservation to resist the properly
constituted United States legal authority.
PEBBLES, when served with the warrant,
said that it was entirely in keeping with
the policy of certain clique ever since he
came to the agency, and that he would ap-
pear before Justice Londrosh, of Whine.
bago precinct, and waive examination to
the U. s. district court.
Senator Allen opened the council by
stating, through an interpreter, that when
he was here month ago he said he would
visit them again and talk with them fully
with reference to their lands, the ques-
tion of allotment being uppermost. He
then introduced to the Indians with
solemn formality Senator Thurston, Con-
gressmen Meiklej John, Strobe and An

"We are here" he said, "for the pur-
pose of listening to your wants and
your grievances. We will then go to the

NARROW GAUGE EXTENSION
The Business Points Involved as
seen from Denyer's Trade
Standpoint.

Says the Denver Republican: Now that
President Jeffrey, of the Denver & Rio
Grande, has returned, it is hoped that he
will give his attention to the extention of
that company's line in New Mexico. The
purchase of the line from Espanola to
Santa Fe opens the way for such an ex-
tention, and it would be good policy for
Mr.. Jeffrey to take tho project in hand.
Denver needs a connection by way of
the Denver & Rio Grande with points in
the interior of New Mexico. The trade
of that territory goes almost entirley to
the east, though Denver is much nearer
than Kansas City. This is because there
is direct connection with Kansas City,
whereas there is no connection at all with
Denver which is of practical use in CON-
petlng with points in the east. New Mex
leo is country which will have large
growth which would be greatly stimulated
by the construction of railroad that
would compete with the Atohison, Topeka
& Santa Fe.
Upon several occasions we have called
attention in discussing this subj ject to the
fact that the situation is very different
from what it would be if an entirely new
line had to be built from Denver to New
Mexico points. It might in that case be
said that the business to be obtained
would not justify the expenditure. But
it would be necessary to build only from
Santa Fe. The business secured would
pass over tracks already in existence and
which do not carry very heavy traffic.
The Rio Grande would be benefited not
only by the traffic over the New Mexico
part of the proposed system, but also by
the additional earnings of its San Luis
valley line.
Now that the road is extended as far as
Santa Fe it would require comparatively
little expense to push it on to Albuquer-
que. At that town traffic would be en-
countered which is the best in New Mex
loo. Albuquerque 10 the largest town in
New Mexico, or at least the most i'm
portant commercially. II Is there that
connection is made with the Atlantic l.
Pacific, which runs through northern Ari-
zona to California. The Rio Grande
would stand chance of getting a good
share of that traffic, together with what
ever else centers at Albuquerque. Then
if the system we're extended still further
toward the south connection could be
made with mining camps In the south
western part of the territory, and the Rio
Grande would get the cream of the busi-
ness which exists there. Besides, the
growth Of those places would be stimulat-
cd by the construction of the proposed
line.

s.THE IMAGINARY DANGER
LINE.''

Some days ago, in answer to a ques-
ton propounded by the Concord Stand
ard, the NEWS AND OBSERVER stated that
there was no warrant of law for the gold
reserve, and no necessity for it if the
Secretary of the Treasury would pay the
obligations of the government according
to the contract. In a recent interview,
ex- Mint Director Leech said
"The continued export of gold exoites
apprehension, although the net loss by
export since January has been largely
made up by the addition from native
production, The one thing that every
body looks at is the Treasury reserve of
free gold If it is over 800, 600, 600 we
feel safe; if under, we are apprehensive.
This imaginary danger line, established
first by the public debt statement of
March, 1885, without any authority of
law, has become a fruitful source of pub
lie anxiety. AS matter of fact, a re.
serve of free gold equal to 90 per cent. of
the demand obligations of the govern
ment is the least compatible with com
fort and safety"
