Declare for Free Coinage of Silver at
I0 to
WASHINGTON, Jan. 23.-The Republican
silver senators today signed declaration
which is intended to be used in the coming
campaign as the demand which the silver
men will make for plank in the national
convention. In the preamble it is recited
that the present financial system endan-
gers the industrial prosperity of the United
States, which is threatened by China and
Japan as q result of the decrease
in the value of silver and the
difference of exchange between sill
yer and gold using countries. 1t is
therefore resolved that the signers favor
the free and unlimited coinage of silver at
a ratio of 16 to l, for the purpose of oblit-
Grating this difference of exchange, which
is declared to operate as bounty on the
export of products from silver using coun-
tries to gold using countries. 1t is also re-
solved that they favor tariff which shall
equalize the difference in the cost of labor
between this country and the countries of
Europe and Asia. 1t is the purpose of those
who were circulating the declaration to get
all the Republican silver men in congress
to sign it.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 23.-In response 10
an inquiry from Secretary Olney as to
measures taken to protect the Americans
arrested in the Transvaal in connection
with the late uprising, Ambassador Bayard
has cabled that according to his present
information, uniform, humane and indul.
gent personal treatment is being extended
to all persons, including Americans, by the
Boer government. This information has
been communicated to the California dele.
cation in congress, which has been flooded
with kilograms urging that the state
department do something for the re-
lief of John Hays Hammond, an American
mining engineer imprisoned as one of the
Johannesburg. This is taken to mean that
American prisoners will be treated pre-
cisely as those of other nationalities, With
out fear or favor.

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 25.-The Examiner
has received the following telegram from
President Kruger in reply to a message re-
questing information as to the status of
the American mining men now imprisoned
at Pretoria for alleged participation in the
uprising of the Uitlanders:
'Everything is quiet at present. The
Americans are in no danger whatever.
They enjoy the full protection of law, like
any other foreigners; therefore, there is no
need of protection from the outside against
any illegal or revolutionary movements.
Even if such protection against revolu-
tionists were necessary, which it is not,
the Americans are capable of taking care
of themselves. The government regrets
deeply that while almost all the Americans
took the side of law and order, very few
of them have joined the revolutionary So
called reform committee. These, together
with a majority. mostly British, will be
tried according to law. and justice will be
done all concerned without respect to

the department, however, the introduction
of boxes in the houses until further orders
will be confined to twenty-five places. San
Francisco and Tacoma are the only Pa
ciflc coast cities in the list.
The action taken is the result of practi-
cal tests made in St. Louis and Washing
ton. These were regarded as satisfactory,
and probable the time saved to carriers,
longer compelled to await answers to bells,
may be utilized in further extending the
boundaries of routes in rapidly growing
communities. Householders in the cities
would be required for their own convent
ence and at their own expense to supply a
suitable box of kind already approved by

TO DOWN THE OCTOPUS

FRANKFORT, KY, Jan. 23.-A bill was
introduced in the Kentucky legislature to-
day by Senator Goebel to repeal the char
ter of the Southern Pacific Railway COM
pany, obtained in 1884, by q. P. Hunting
ton. The road has never been operated in
Kentucky, but in California, and the ac-
ton of the senator is prompted by results
of mass meetings of citizens of California.
Senator Goebel of Covington, who intro
duced the bill today to repeal the law
granting charter to the Southern Pacific
company, says G. P. Huntington got the
law passed for this charter twelve years
ago, and that the road has never been built
or operated in this state, but in California.
The people of that state have recently
risen up in arms against the methods of
the road and held mass meetings at which
memorials were adopted asking the Ken
lucky legislature to wipe ont the charter of
the road. 1t was in response to request
from California that he introduced the bill
and will push it for passage.
Adolph Sutro, mayor of San Francisco,
in his appeal to the Kentucky legislature.
says:
'Pray help free us from this octopus that
is preyng upon the commercial and indus
trial interests of the Pacific coast.'

The Santa Fe Railroad May Fall to

Branch Lines Will Be Dropped, as the
For eign BondhoIders Consider Them
Burden on the Line

CHICAGO, Jan. 23.-The Tribune tomor-
row will say:
Complete dismemberment of the great
Santa Fe railway system is likely to be the
result of the recent organization of the
main lines from Chicago to Albuquerque.
Less than year ago the Colorado Midland
was dropped and placed in charge of re-
ceiver designated by the bondholders of
the Midland. A month ago it was decided
to give up the Atlantic and Pacific to its
first mortgage bondholders and C. w.
Smith was appointed receiver.
1t is now learned that it is the intention
of the new Santa Fe management to also
relinquish control of the st. Louis and San
Francisco. The American bondholders, it
is understood, were in favor of retaining
these properties and reorganizing these as
originally contemplated by the joint reor-
ganization committee. But Messrs. Flem-
ing and Luden, who represent the English
and Dutch bondholders, who hold three
fourths interest in the property, are said to
be determined to get rid of the auxiliary
lines. They have conceived the idea that
these lines are burden on the main line
recently reorganized, and think better re-
suits can be achieved by making traffic
agreements with those roads.
