mate for Calendar Year.
Is MORE ACTIVITY IN MINING
X l.. Preston, the Director of the Mint
Looks for a Steady Increase
i'll the Future.

New York, Oct. ga special to a To-
cal paper from Washington says that
r. e. Preston, director Of the mint, in
discussing his report on the world
production Of gold and silver in 1894
makes the following statements:
II am satisfied that the gold product
of the world will not be less than $780,
1000 for the calendar year of 1896
which will be an increase of 500, 600, 900
over 1894. CT this increase the United
States will contribute not less than ST.
100000. Colorado will furnish from
$3,50000O to $4,000, 900; California, $1,000
600 and Arizona. New Mexico, Idaho
and Montana will make handsome
showings. In Colorado the principal
increase will come from the Cripple
Creek district. This district altogether
will produce $15, 900 this year.
"Where there is placer mining, par
ticularly in Montana and Idaho, the
product of gold will not be so great as
it would have been had there been
heavy SHOWS in the mountains. There sa
shortage of water in those states which
serves to handicap the miners. The re-
turns from quartz mining are very sat
isfactQry. Some heavy shipments of
ore are being made from Helena,
Everywhere went into the mining re-
gions of the west, saw signs Of great
activity and prosperity.
1--WE gained last year for the gold
stock of the world 100000 Of the gold
formerly boarded in India and we have
every reason to look for an increase
this year and for a number Of years to
come"

HAVE AGREED ON RECEIVERS
Robert Galloway. Andrew Burleieh and
Man Yet Unnamed Are TO
Be Chosen.

New York, Oct. 25.-The matter of the
Northern Pacific receivers was called
before Judge Lacombe today. The al
gument is upon the motion of the Far
mers' Loan & Trust Company to have
the court accent the designations of
Messrs. Cakes. Payne and Rouse as re-
ceivers of the Northern Pacific railway
and for the appointment of Frank Big
Glow and Edward w. McHenry, VINO

kins in Wisconsin and subsequently by
Judge SanbOrn in Minnesota.

Loan q Trust Company, asked that the

nave the confidence of all moneyed
men and all railway men in New York
and he suggested the name Of Robert
NJ Galloway, who was for 10 years
president of the Manhattan railway,
and is now president of the Merchants
National bank.
Mr.. Cardozi, for the bondholders, pro-
tested against an increase in the num-
Der of receivers. Silas H. Petit gen.
eral counsel for the Northern Pacific
company, argued for a uniform re-
ownership.
Judge Lacombe said: at would sug-
gest that you get the gentlemen in the
west to agree upon some personnel If
they would select, it would be far more
likely to result satisfactorily than II
thrust a man in Let counsel repre-
senting every interest unite IL letter
to the courts of the Seventh and Ninth
circuits to settle upon a personnel rep
resenting every circuit through which
the road runs. That would be no in
fringement of judicial dignity. Or, /
will myself write to the judges to urge
them to get a personnel. If the coun-
sci sends such a letter l will endorse
it readily"
In the meantime the motion went
over until next week,
AN AGREEMENT.
President Brayton Ives OF the North
ern Pacific tonight gave the press the
following statement:
"a conference of the highest import
ance to Northern Pacific interests was
held today, President Ives, Mr.. Turner,
counsel for the Farmers Loan and
Trust Company, Mr.. Cardoza, repre-
senting the second mortgage bondhold-
ers, and Colonel Petit, counsel for the
company, being present. After long
conference, all parties agreed to accept
Robert M. galloway and decided upon
united action in regard to other re-
ceiVerships.
GAS it is there will be soon a united
harmonious receivership conducting the
affairs of the Northern Pacific, which
are in the hands of five receivers now
The resignation of the old triple receiV-
ership also remains for action by Judge
! Lacombe and others"
It was understood also that in &C.
cordance with this settlement there
will be only three receivers. Mr.. Bur
leigh of Seattle will no doubt continue
to act as such, while Mr.. Galloway viii
be in charge of New York interests
The name of the third receiver has not
