GOLD IN ALASKA.

Report of the Operations of the Geo1og-
fcal Survey.
Washington, April 1.-The geolog-
ical survey has reported to Secretary
Smith on the operations Of the survey
during the field season of last year.
Discussing Investigations in the
Alaskan gold fields, the report says that
many small veins of rather rich ore
occur on the southern side of the Silver
Bow basin, about three miles northeast
Of juneau. The old lakebeds there are
successfully worked for gold by the
hydraulic process.
At Seward City, fifty miles north of
Juneau, there are also veins, extremely
rich at some points. which are yielding
gold. On Admiralty island there are
promising veins. and mining there
will be commenced in the summer.
Near Sitka, especially along Silver bay
and in the country to the southeast,
there are numerous veins. some Of
which have yielded little gold.
The report of DR.. Hall, the expert
who investigated the coal resources Of
Alaska. says large fields of a fairly
good quality of brown coal exist on
the eastern shores of Cooks inlet. and
that veins of economic value exist on
the south shore of the Alaskan penin-
sula.

The Fate of the Bermuda.

Philadelphia, March 3O.-On the
subject of the alleged sinking of the
steamer Bermuda by British cruiser,
John d. Hart says:
II do not expect to have any reliable
information regarding the Bermuda
until Tuesday. and then it will be
vastly different from the report that
the Bermuda was sent to the bottom"
He added that the vessel had left
New York March 10, ostsnsibly for
Vera Cruz, but with valuable war ma
terial for the Cuban insurgents.
Mr.. Hart's lawyer thinks there has
been mistake, and that the American
steamer Volusnia has been sunk.
The theory is that she was fired upon
by Spanish cruiser, which mistook
her for filibuster. The Volusnia is
long overdue, having left Jamaica on
her return trip March 10. She merely
carried general cargo, and had no
arms whatever. Her crew numbered
twenty-five or thirty, and all are
thought to have been lost.

INTERESTING TO HoPeRowERs
Sonoma Fl ops o: Last Years Crop fered
at Ridiculously Low Price.

sonoma Hops o: Last Years Crop nered
at Ridiculously Low Price.
San Francisco, March 80.-Hop-
growers and hopdealers have been very
much disturbed by the contents of
circular sent from London to English
brewers, copies of which have been re.
ceived here within the last few days,
sent by London men representing the
Pacific coast growers and shippers.
The letter is one offering what it rep.
resents as choice Sonoma hops, 1895
crop, at price much below what the
bulk Of the 1895 Sonoma crop sold for,
and what hops Of equal quality are
now bringing in the London market.
1t is the universally expressed belief
that the hops thus offered are not choice
Sonoma nor any other quality of Son.
,s practically conclusive evidence in
support of this opinion. Nevertheless
the fact that an offer of hops purport-
ing to be of that quality at such low
price has most demoralizing effect on
the market and makes it practically
impossible to sell through mail or tele-
graphic orders at prices which the
quality of the article should command.
The firm seneing the oirclar agrees
to furnish choice Sonoma hops at 80
sh filings per hundred weight, and offers
to furnish samples. The circular says
285 bales of choice Sonoma hops. crop
Of 1895, have been shipped by sailing
vessels from San Francisco, and that
the shipment is expected to arrive soon.
It is stated here that no such shipment
Of Sonoma hops has been made, but
that similar number Of bales of
Sacramento hops, worth 8 cents a
pound less, were sent by sailing ves-
sells.

THE PLAN IS ILLEGAL
Court Decides Against Hills
Consolidation Scheme.
Law ON PARALLEL RAILROADS
Public Cannot Be Benefited by Joining
of Competing Lines-OpiniOn De-
Hvered by Justice Brown.

Washington, April /. = Justict
Brown delivered an opinion of the su
preme court today in the case of Thorn
as Pearsall VS.. the Great Northern
Railway Company, and the Louisville
& Nashville Railway Company vs. the
Commonwealth of Kentucky, as to the
right Of parallel competing railway
lines to consolidate. holding in the case
of the Great Northern that it could
not under it's charter, and in opposition
to the act of the Minnesota legislature
of 1874, be consolidated with the
Northern Pacific, as was sought to be
accomplished. Justices Field and
Brewer dissented.
The case of Pearsall vs.. the Great
Northern railway came to the supreme
court from the United States circuit
court for the district of Minnesota. 1t
was bill in equity, fled by Pearsall,
as stockholder in the Great Northern
company, against the company under
the laws Of the territory and the state
of Minnesota to enjoin it from entering
into an agreement with the Northern
Pacific Railway Company, under which
the property and franchises of the
Northern Pacific Company were to be
purchased. It appears that the Great
Northern was originally incorporated
under the name Of the Minneapolis &
st. Cloud railway. The original char
ter granted the company the right to
connect with any railroad running in
the same general direction and consoli-
date its stock or franchise with that of
any other railway, and the question
presented to the supreme court was
whether the company could be deprived
OF this right by subsequent act of the
state legislature, inhibiting the consol-
idation, lease or purchase by any rail-
way of the stock, property or franchise
Of any parallel or competing line, the
legislature having such law in 1874.
The court answered the question in
the affirmative. The court says that it
was competent for the legislature to
limit the charter and to declare that
the power it had conferred upon the
Minneapolis & st. Cloud Company to
consolidate it's interest with other SIM
liar corporations should not be exer-
cised so far as applicable to parallel
competing lines, inasmuch as it Is for
the interests Of the people that there
should be competition between parallel
roads,
The legislature, it continues, ''has
the right to assume in this connection
that neither road would reduce it's tar
if to destructive or Improbable fig.
ure or to a point where either road
would become valueless to it's stock
and the object Of the act in
question is to prevent such oombina-
tion between the two as would consti-
tute a monopoly

The Utmost Energy Of the Authorities
Fails to Prevent Demonstrations
Against the United States.

LONDON, March 9.-The Madrid cor
respondent of the Standard, noting the
fact that the utmost energy of the au-
thorities fails to prevent demonstra-
tons of hostility toward the United
states, says the press everywhere de-
precates premature ebulIitions, but
plainly expresses the opinion that
these impulses may soon be needed for
energetic action, as Spain will sooner
confront any contingencies, however
dangerous, than stOOp to insult.
Valencia was again in a turbulent
state Sunday over the condition of the
relations between Spain and the United
States. A mob gathered and was pro-
ceeding towards the American consul
ate with the intention of causing a
disturbance there, but a force of police
opposed their passage through the
streets. A desperate struggle ensued
and several persons were wounded.

TWO KINDS or MONEY.

One of the mysteries of the present
situation is the fact that so many ap-
parently intelligent and fair minded
Americans have permitted themselves
to be blinded to the real nature of the
financial issue. Americans are natural
ly honest and in many cases their judg-
ments seem to have been completely
warped by appeals to them in the name
of "honest money" It is to be devoutIy
hoped that as the issue becomes more
clearly defined they may be able to
grasp the fundamental truth that
money may be dishonest" by being too
"deaT," as well as by being too "cheap."
In every financial transaction there
are two sides. "Dear money" is "good
money" to one side, butt is frequently
ruin, and always ruin to the other. Let
those who have been deluded by the
specious cry of sound money" make a
note of this, and they will have taken
an important step toward correct So
luton of the monetary question. Let
them then proceed to investigate how
dollar that is approaching that is, in
Creasing in purchasing poWer-wOrks
as between the moneYed classes and
those who are in debt or engaged in
production. Just a little figuring will
give them ideas that they never had be-
fore. When they proceed in this way
they will soon discover the reason why
the mOUey Centers are so unanimously
against what they are pleased to term
"cheap money" Dear money" gives
them an enormous advantage. It en-
riches them while they sleep. At the
same time the more the dollar grows in
value the harder it is for those to obtain
it who have to depend upon their own
exertions. This was the natural effect
Of demOnetizing one of the precious
metals aud basing all values upon the
one which was retained. Hence the cry
of distress and demand for relief that
for more than twentyyears has gone up
from the producing classes in every
country that has adopted the single
gold standard.

WHO do the law makers and execu-
tiyes represent? The general suppo-
sitiOn has been that they act for the
people, but as every knotty point of
legislation and policy is submitted to
the New York chamber of commerce, a
suspicion has arisen that this govern
ment is not pro bono publiCo, but
rather of Wall street. by Wall street
and for Wall street. In fact, the
suspicion is correct. The will of the
people is never taken into consider
alton, and if it should be, no doubt the
supreme court could find some pretext
for declaring it unconstitutional.

In the chamber of deputies yesterday
! the premier announced the resignation
and acceptance by King Humbert.
Almost everywhere excited crowds
are parading and the police have great
difficulty in controlling them. The
disturbances have been greatly increas-
ed by the calling out of the army re-
serves Of the class of 1872, which calls
$4,000 additional men into active SER
vice. The great majority of these re-
serves are married men whose families
will thus be deprived of their chief or
only support for an indefinite period.
Thus at Milan and other places serious
rioting has occurred when the reserves
were preparing to obey orders, and in
many cases they have been prevented
by force.
The war Office has admitted that at
sat least" $50 Italian officers we're killed
at Adowa, but the officials still refuse
to admit that over ,OOOmen were killed.
They say, however, "they believe $500

that "nearly ali" the artillery, ammuni-

Our Dangers Here.

There is a comet, the scientists tell
US, that is travelling one and half mil
lions of miles every day directly toward
the earth. Well, what of it? The in
timatiOn of course, is that the thing
may strike the earth. Suppose that it
did. 1t would not create nearly as
much of rumpus as a political cam
paign does. A comet is only like a
dust cloud. Ii could make no more
impression on the solid earth than a
bladder balloon would make on the
rock Of Gibralter. Its gaseous ele,
ments, it is true, might affect health
But if the comet is coming directly
toward the earth and will not reach
here until the 14th of March, it vii
/ find clear vacancy for the earth al
that time will be about 100000 mile:
from where it is now. The comet
must take better aim than it is claimed
it has yet taken before it can come il
contact with US. No, it is not comet
that we need fear. We need not e
away 100000 or 100000 miles t.
hunt for danger. If we can save our
selves from a government that is tieC
to Wall street, from a house of repre-
sentatives that is reasonable to the
popular will, from J. Sterling Morton
the kid gloved anarchist of the cabinet
and from the lying of political plat
forms, we need not care a continental
for the comet OF anything else. Gu
troubles are not 100000 miles awal
from US. They are right here, facing
Us, and some Of them are defyiDg u

Covert InsinUatiOns That Big Money Is
Back of the OhiOan.
New YORK, March 8.-The World says
this Sunday morning: The friends
of Ex-Governor Mckinley of Ohio have
now spent 100000 to secure for him
the republican nomination for the
presidency and they have within a few
days written to prominent iron and
steel men in Pennsylvania, Ohio and
Illinois asking them to contribute "at
once toward fund of a quarter million
dollars, " which is now urgently needed
to effect a Mckinley organization and
elect delegates in several states whose
delegates are now in doubt. The gen
eral manager for Mckinley is Mark
Hanna, the Cleveland iron king, and
the energy and money displayed by
the syndicate now working for the
Ohio candidate is keeping every other
republican candidate for president
awake nights.
A decisive battle was fought yester-
day in Florida for the eight delegates
to the national republican convention.
It was expected that they would be
divided between Morton and Reed, but
within a few hours of the election the
Mckinley managers entered the field
and they have secured six of the eight
delegates. Two are for Morton.
Among the Republican candidates
and their confidential friends the tao
tics of the Mckinley managers in the
past have been the exclusive topic OF
conversation. They do not talk fof
publication, but they frankly say
among themselves that "there are mil
lions of dollars at work for Mckinley
and he may win on the first ballot"

WILL ABOLISH POLICE BOARDS.

Governor Morrill, HIS Taken a Step in
That Direction.
TOPEKA, Kan, March 7.-GoVernor
Morrill, made the first move to-day
toward the adjustment of the metro
politan police boards in the cities of
of the first-class in Kansas. S. B.
Lieurenee, a member of the Wichita
board, was removed and Oscar Smith
was appointed III his place. Lieurence
is a prohibition republican, and is in
favor of the enforcement of the prOhi-
bition law. Several delegations repre-
senting the anti prohibition element at
Wichita have called on the governor
recently and demanded Lieurance's
removal. Smith is a resubmissionist,
and is appointed to please that ele-
ment.
This change, it is stated, is but the
forerunner of a general order abolish
ing all the police booards, which would
give the cities home rule. Governor
Morrill, is very angry at the State TEN
peranCe union, which has constantly
attacked him since his induction into
Office, and while he maintains silence,
his friends say that he is about ready
to abolish the metropolitan police sys-
tenn and thus destroy the temperance

The Chief Executive of Massachusetts Sue
eumbs to a Long Illness.
LOWELL, Mass, March6.- Gov. Green
halge died yesterday at 11:3O. He had
been critic ally ill for several weeks and
for several days it has been recognized
that the end was very near. He had
been unconscious since Tuesday even
ing at niue o'clock. The death was in
expressibIy sad at Mr.. Geenhalge's
house. At the bedside was the devoted
wife. She steadfastly refused to leave
her husband. She was sustained by
medicines, and when she rested it was
on the couch at her husbands side.
Gov. Greenhalge was Of English birth,
but came with his parents to this coun-
try in his childhood. He was gradual
ed from Harvard university in 1868
Two years later he was admitted to the
