The Mining Camp Fast Wiping Out All
Traces of the Fire.

The Mining Camp Fast Wiping Out All
Traces Of the Fire.
Cripple Creek. Colo. April 28.-Crip-
pie Creek does not live in the past.
The fire Of last week would be forgot
ten entirely II the hustle attending the
rebuilding did not bring up the old
memory. A million dollars went up in
smoke in two hours. Within two
weeks preparation will be made to
spend nearly two millions on covering
the burned district with buildings
which will not burn like finder. No
wooden houses will be permitted with
in the fire limits.
Fortunately the owners of lots are
among the wealthiest people here and
the loss sustained will not seriously
affect them. In fact a large number CT
the lots are more valuable today than
before the fire.
1t is the judgment Of many that taken
as a whole the burned section is a bet
ter buy now than when the buildings
were standing. That confidence has
never been shaken is illustrated by the
enterprise Of the First National bank
when it opened for business yesterday
morning. 1t was naturally expected
that many of the %depositors who had
lost heavily in the fire would be anx-
ious about their cash and would rather
trust 1t in $heir own possession than to
anyone else. The bank anticipated a
slight u and prepared for it. But it
never came, and the only difference
from the usual business was a slight
increase in the deposits. Among the
deposits came over $50. 900 to be loaned
on buildings to be put up and to buy
vacant ground.
The temporary buildings are going
up as fast a possible and the perma-
nent work will be pushed.

key to the situation in that direction.
In addition another strong force OF hos

KRUGER TO CHAMBERLAIN.

Capetown, April 28.-The text of
President Kruger's reply to the invita-
ton of the British government. through
the secretary Of the state for the colo
MES. Mr.. Joseph Chamberlain. to visit
England and discuss matters connected
with the Transvaal and its future is a
voluminous document and plainly indi-
Gates the firm attitude assumed by the
Boer statesman.
The president begins by stating that
his visit to England has always de-
pended upon the settlement Of a basis
Of discussion. and he regrets that the
basis has not yet been reached. Con-
tinuing he says:
I'm a friendly spirit, but from the
very first. the government saw clearly
and recorded its opinion, that no for
eign interference in the internal affairs
Of the republic could be allowed. Mr..
Chamberlain admits the justice of this
position. yet he intimates that Great
Britain desires that particular interna-
tional measures be taken by the Trans
vaal. The latter cannot allow to pass
unnoticed the expression admitted
grievances and expresses regret that,
having intimated its desire for a recon-
of the London convention in
consequence of the inroad of DR.. Jane
son. the position should be assumed
that in the discussion the so-styled 'ad-
mitted grievances must be included as
a sine qua non. in the event of a recon-
sideration Of the convention being
to.
THE South African republic has al
ways been prepared to receive and con-
slider in a friendly spirit the private
suggestions of the imperial government
regarding the interests Of British SUBJ
jects. Although the South African re-
public has never known of the exist
ence of the so-called admitted griev-
ances.' and must deny, on hat account,
that the right exists to create rebellious
movements. it does not profess to be
perfect or infallible. and has repeat
eddy declared that it is prepared to lis
ten to just complaints presented in a
constitutional manner oy anyone, but
soutn african republic Is OF the
opinion that every step calculated to
prolong the irritation existing IN South
africa must De stuoiousiy avoided by

Lock Horns Over the Revenue
Measure.
ENTIRELY NON PATIsAN,
But Democrats Defeated IL Al
though the Receipts Were Less
Than the Expenditures
Every MoHSh

routine bushes had been disposed OF
the pending question was on the
amendment offered by Mr.. Chandler
making 1t unlawful for retired naval
tractors furnishing material to the
government. Before proceeding to this
amendment Mr.. Bacon reported an i'm
pOrtant new amendment to the build
ing of four battle ships as provided by
the bill, hat in case the secretary of
the navy makes separate contracts for
armor or armor plate he shall not ac-
cept bids exceeding $3.50 per ton for
such armor, and In case the secretary
cannot make contracts within such
limits he shall delay action and report
the facts to the next session of con-
gress. The Chandler amendment was
agreed to. Al to II. AS adopted the pro-
hibition against naval Officers serving
naval contractors goes into effect June
80, 1897. This brought the senate to
the most important feature of the bill,
appropriating for four battle ships to
cost 80, $50, 900 each. three thirty-knot
torpedo boats at $500, 900 and ten tor
pedo boats at $500, 900. Mr.. German
moved an amendment to fix the num-
Der Of battle ships at two instead of
four and Mr.. Quay an amendment fix
ing the number Of battle ships at six.
Mr.. German then addressed the senate
In support of his amendment. Mr.. Cor
man had been speaking with much ear
n~estness. and 1t was evident that a de-
bate OF more than passing interest had
opened. The galleries quickly filled
and the Bal and side areas were
crowded with representatives who
came over from the house.
During Mr.. Germans last statement
Mr.. Sherman ose hastily for an inter-
ruption. 81 am very glad the senator
has confessed the sin-the great sin
of the democratic party" said Mr. sher.-
man. The republican house of repre-
sentatives has framed a bill increasing
the revenues of the government fifty
millions. and that bill was sent to the
senate. Here it vas defeated by the
votes Of the other side of the chamber,
SO that the only measur offered to this
congress to raise more evenue was de-
feated by democratic votes"
This precipitated a question ID to
who controlled the senate. Mr.. German
declaring republican control OF the
committees settled the point. I'VE
warned YOU" he said. that you had
not the power to relieve the country
and asked you to join US in a non-parti-
san measure Of relief. but our offer was
rejected. You assumed the task alone.
You also knew you were without the
power unless you got your forces to-
gether.".
II must emphatically deny" again
interposed MI. Sherman, as he pro-
ceeded to show that the revenue bill
vas ~non-partisan in character and a
relief measure pure and simple. "And
l say too 1t is a Disgrace to the congress
Of the United States, particularly to
the senate" proceeded Sherman with
great e~arnestness, that when 1t was
known that the receipts of the govern
ment did not meet the expenditures no
action was taken and the proposed bill
was defeated. In every month aincA

Nx/ith a better understanding of the
w transient nature of the many Phys
ical ills, which vanish before proper eff
forts-gentle efforts-pleasant efforts
rightly directed. There is comfort in
the knowledge, that SO many forms Of
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease, but simply to a constipated condi-
ton Of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrupof Figs. prompt
ly removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with millionso of families, andi IS
everywhere esteemed SO highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that it is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness without facilitating the
organs on which it acts. 1t is therefore
all important, in order to get its bene-
fetal effects, to note when you pur-
chase, that you have the genuine arti-
Gle, which is manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold by
all reputable druggists.
II in the enjoyment Of good health,
and the system is regular, laxativcs or
other remedies are then not needed. If
aflicted with any actual disease, one
may be commended tn the most skillful
physicians, but If in need Of n laxative,

well-informed everywhere, Syrup of
Figs stands highest and IT, most largely
used and gives most general satisfaction.

RICHMOND, Apr. ll.-Bishop Gaines.

Is determined to wipe out lmmorallty
among the ministry OF his church.
Yesterday ne refused to pass two can

appointments which are to be made
Monday no name would be found OF any
man known to drink whisky. chew
tobacco, smoke cigars, or who was
guilty Of any immortality. This an
nouncement prod an electrical ef
feet upon the conference.
The ministers who used tobacco
promptly declared their purpose to
abandon the filthy habit. the smokers
suddenly discovered that smoking was
unbecoming to the cloth, and express
ed that they could smoke no more.
One or two more who had been given
to whisky and beer drinking, sudden
ly became 1eetotalers. and expressed a
determination to use liquor no more.
The bishop went step further and
gave the preachers 70 understand that
every one of them would be required
to settle their debts before they re-
sumed their appointments.
