Protection for Investors.

The trend of public opinion in San
Francisco is evidenced by the activ-
ity recently developed among the
mining men, and the means which
are being taken to control the bust
ness SO as to protect themselves and
the public against the schemes of
sharpers The San Francisco Stock
Exchange has not only voted to list
all reputable gold mines free, but
have gone even further, and for
warded circulars to the leading min
owners, asking for cooperation. The

poration, has also been organized

ing Of number of the best known
ald most influential mining men on

that, while not dealing exclusively,
as its old established neighhor on
Pine street, in stocks of the several
companies, that it will labor in bring
ing the mine-owner and the capital
ist together, for the purpose of en-
gaging the necessary means to de-
velop promising prospects. This will
involve the employment of corps of
experts, whose business it will be to
report on properties which, if APP
proved, will be given a certificate to
that effect, stamped with the seal Of
Exchange. This will do away with
the middle man, who, in the past,
has lived upon plundering the public,

Misrepresentation. There should be

WEDNESDAY JANUARY s, 1896

CONGRESSMAN NEwLANDs addressed
a large meeting in Reno last Thurs
day night.
With regard to the political future
Nr. Newlands thought that efforts to
unite the silver men OF the country
into one party would be fruitless I'M
til after the Republican and Demo
cratic National Conventions had
been held, when the faith OF those
who now thought that the party OF
their utilization would do something
Cor silver would be rewarded or the
.delusion effectually dispelled. Then,
when the the old parties, as he be
lieved. had followed the tenets OF
their leaders and declared for gold,
the friends of silver might be
brought together in new party.
ander whatever name it mattered
not.
The Speaker declared that much as
he deplored prospective war with
England over the Venezuelan bound
airy, war, with all is dread conse-
auences of death and destruction Of
property, it was infinitely better
than the horrors of long continued
industrial depression. AS for him
self he thought that war, whether
right or wrong the causes bringing
1t about, was to be chosen as a hui
manitarian election rather than con
tinuance, under present conditions,
of virtual enslavement to the English
bopdholders,
The speaker explained the Oriental
phase of the silver question in rela-
ton TO the awakening manufacturing
industries of Japan, China and India,
and declared that by reason of the
difference in the rate OF exchange, on
account of their money being silver,
1t protected them at home from com
petition with the manufactured arti-
Giles of other countries and enabled
them on the other hand TO compete
IN the markets of the world with
their products at price so low that
in short time tariff wall, il not
supplemented by bimetallism, could
not be built high enough to prevent
them FROM running the manufactur-
ing industries of all gold standard
countries.
In closing, Mr.. Newlands spoke of
the railroad funding bill and declared
that when, during the last session of
Congress, 1t was brought up, he had
voted against it, and that when it
comes before the house this session,
his vote upon it should BE- governed
by the wishes OF his constituents.

lnpIAMA.s NATURAL ICE CAVE.
~ Has Great Chambers from which
There Come Arctic Blasta

~ Has Great Chambers from which
There Come Arctic Biasta
One OF the most remarkable natural
phenomena that has been discovered In
recent years has just been reported In
the southwest corner OF Brown county.
Indiana, says the Cincinnati Enquirer.
II Is near the diminutive village Of
Evansville. The cave Is located on the
farm Of Billy Moore and Is one OF those
remarkable freaks OF nature that puz-
zlos the most profound Of scientists. At
It's entrance. which Is completely over
Tapped by the trees. the cold air Is
plainly perceptble. The opening APP
pears not unlike a mine shaft long dis
used. but the steep. rocky descent
shows nothing Of an artificial construc-
ton. The winding way leads 10 a sub
terranean cavern which Is fully nifty
feet below the surface. This huge
aperture Is very like n broad. yaultcd
corridor and Is known 10 the natives
as the Devlla chamber. The air In thia
apartment Is near the freezing point
II Is trimmed with glistening rock for
nations. which reflect the light and
sparkle with the brllliancy Of countless
diamonds From this point several halls
lead of In a confusing manner. but the
one to the ice-vault Is evident from the
cold blast which comes from Il. The
descent in this natural corridor Is sim
liar TO the rocky decline at the on
trance Of the cave. but not over a dozen
yards within the frost from the Ice
vault Is plainly visible and further on
Il Is thick on all sides. like the crust
that Is formed on the pipes OF an ice
plant. A little further on the descent
entirely ceases and here the walls are
frozen hard like the ground In the mid
dc OF the winter. Then the narrow
way leads into mammoth chamber
and this large natural opening Is known
rs the ice-vault. In this great subter-
ranean aperture, which extends fully
100 feet In width. the ice towers in
miniature mountain. appearing like a
dozen icobergs hcaped together. The
frost-lined walls and lce-sealed dome
present a frlgidness which would
bring the shiyers to a seasoned Esqui-
mau. Here the ice stands IN a solid
mass extending downward 20 a depth
which would be folly to conjecture.
Some have advanced the theory that
the air is forced through the under pas
sagos OF the earth with such pressure
as to make this strange formation.
Some have attributed the cause 10 an
underlying bed OF alkall whose chemi-
cal change 20 a gaseous form has pro-
duced the phenomenon. Others have
thought that the interior heat OF the
earth acting upon the iron pyrltes. or
fools gold. which largely abounds In
this country, is the true source OF this
unparalleled discovery. stlll others
think the sudden expansion OF the car
honic acid gas given OF by the heated
| limestone. which Is also common In this
country. could have easily produced the
ice. But thus far the theories arc moth
ing more than speculation and further
than the fact that the ice-cave exists
and Is, indeed, a remarkable natural
phenomenon none has been able to fur.
