Plants the Color of Stones.

There are few instances of protective
mimicry in plants, though In general
plants protect themselves by spines, hairs
and poisonous secretions. The "Stone

Few York, July :3.-The str:,in
upon the resources End temper of the
financial community fer SOHO time
owing to the steady shrinkage Of prices
of stock exchange securities, has re-
Gently been intensified by political and
other causes. In consequence values
have steadily melted away. The DOM
inant pressing influences have been the
steady exports Of gold and the constant
depletion Of the governments gold re-
serve. On July II the free gold held
amounted to 800, S93, $685. Yesterday it
had decreased to $S7 ,407, 169. The
sharp decline in securities was kcenly
felt in financial and banking circles and
q move was at once started
To Aid the Government
by placing at its disposal q large share
of the gold held in the banks, offers
aggregating Sl3,OOO,OO0 have been re-
ceived.
Later change in the financial tenn
per took place when it became known
that J. P. Morgan had called a confer
ence of the great banking houses with
view to concerted action to prevent ex-
ports of gold within the next 20 days.
The meeting was attended by repre-
sentatives of all of the leading interna-
tional banking houses. The conference
lasted about an hour, and, after ad-
journment, it was announced that an
agreement had been outlined and a
committee appointed to elaborate the
details of plan for the protection OF
the treasury gold reserve. No details
of the proposed plan were obtainable,
but the popular impression in the street
is that pool for the sale of 60-day bills
will be formed. This is mere conjec-
ture. however,

No Night Session.

There was no night session owing to
mn accident which destroyed the electric
light connections. A severe storm had
passed over the city about O'Clock and
the wires were blown down. Despite
this fact, the delegates assembled in the
hall and waited for over an hour in
total darkness for the lights to be turned
on. About dozen candles were
brought in for the use Of the newspaper
men. Speeches were made in the dark
and the delegates appeared willing to
stay all night, if there was any prospect
of light later on. At 9:l5 Chairman
Butler declared the convention ad-
iOnrned until morning.

speech OF 1gnatius Donnelly, who re-.
plied to Governor Stones address OF
welcome. He made a "middle OF the
road" speech that stirred the radicals to
their depths. He appealed to them to
stand firm, so that all the dynamite in
Gods laboratory could not tear the
party asunder, and predicted that II the
Peoples party failed the cause OF hu'
manity would 20 down with it. Sena-
tor Butler of North Carolina, as tempo
tary chairman, was
Listened to With Eager Interest.
He is a striking looking man, with q
wealth of wavy dark brown hair which
tumbles over his straight forehead, and
which, together with beard that
marks the lower part of his face, brings
into bold relief the straight aquiline
nose and gives to his dark olive COM
plexion an appearance almost Of pallor.
Senator Butler hopes to be the pivot on
which the convention will turn. He
believes eventually all the factions can
be harmonized on his plan to adopt q
Populist platform and nominate upon it
Bryan, with q Southern Populist for
vice president. His speech strongly up
held the demand for the perpetuation
of the Populist organization, which he
described as having driven the Repub'
licans to gold and the Democrats to
silver. To be
Swallowed Up by the Democrats
he said, was danger only equalled by
the danger of being made the indirect
allies of the Republicans in the present
campaign. He gave both factions a
chance to rend the air with their shouts,
but when, in conclusion, he suggested a
middle course, the purport of which all
understood, both sides were irrespon-
sive. At the conclusion of Chairman
Buffers speech the roll was called for
members of the committee on crcdon-
tials. When the call was concluded the
convention took recess till s p. M.
There were no demonstrations at the
day session. The delegates, save those
from Texas, were unusually quiet, al
though, after they had been once
aroused by the display Of Lincoln's
picture, they applauded with enthusi-
asm everything which suited their
fancies.

It 10 the new disinfectant which
has superseded all other disfnfect-
ants, being a scientific compound,
having no odor, yet possessing the
qualities of a powerful disinfectant.
The automatic distributor should
be placed in every house in Homo
lulu where odors and germs of dis
ease exist They are placed free
of charge, taken care OF and kept
working day and night for $1.oo
per month. It's an innovation, but
on scientific principles, and ap-
peals TO everyone Of common sense.
The idea is this: The distributor
drops two drops a minute, day and
night. Foul doors are killed, yet
no disagreeable smell of carbolio
acid or crude disinfectants takes
its place. You don't know that a
powerful disinfectant is being used
If you judge by the lack of odor.

A NEW GOLD MILL.
Combination of the Lewis PuIver-
izer and Bell AmaIgumntor.

II
Salt Lake, like all other cities of
Importance, has its men of mechan-
ical genius and its full share of in
ventors, and these men of brain as
well as of Drawn have been giving a
great deal of thought of late to the
designing and building of machinery
for the recovery of the -four gold so
plentiful in some of the placer de-
posts Of the west, as well as for the
saving of the precious metal from free
gold ores.
Some time ago The Herald made
mention of the Bell amalgamator.
which is modelled after the fashion of
the gold pan, and which, it is claimed,
will catch and save nearly all of the
gold values in the gravel, or the free
gold in the pulp as it comes from the
stamps or cruSher.
At first it was the intention to OPP
crate this amalgamator exclusively on
placer gravel, but since F. w. Lewis
has brought this pulverizer to such a
state of perfection that it has been
found that the two machines can be
worked together in a most satisfactory
manner, and at the present time trial
runs are being made with the two
machines at the old Burton & Gardner
works, on East Eighth South, and
QuFlIlS the past lew udyS experiments
have been made on gold quartz WITH
so much success that Messrs. Lewis
and Bell are now engaged in making
Slight improvements and getting ready
for run on Mill Creek gold and silver
bearing gravel, which will be made
tomorrow.
The Lewis pulverizer embodies a
new principle in the building of ore
crushers, which needs only to be seen
to be appreciated. 1t comprises a ro-
tary mortar, in which there are in
stalled three wheels or crushers weigh
ing 1.130 pounds each. These wheels
are placed on axles, and the revolving
of the mortar causes the heavy wheels
or rollers to crush as well as to grind
the ore or quartz; and the grinding
is so fine that the pulp will easily go
through a 60-mesh sieve or screen
from where it is conveyed to the ANAL
Samator. where the values are saved
TO very high percentage.
Experiments with these combined
machines will be made tomorrow on
| gravel from the Mill Creek placers, II
being the intention to thoroughly pull
verize the gold and silver bearing dirt
before running it through the ANAL
! gamator.
These Mill Creek placers are now
! owned by DR.. Witcher. and if the two
machines combined will save the min
eral values of the gravel, it is his in
| tention to install a plant of this char
acter on the ground.

cAFFERY INsULTED.
Roughly Treated by HoodIums Mt
Lake Charles.

hOuSniy ITestcu Dy. ffOOuluinS nj
Lake Charles.
NEW YORK, Oct. pa Sun special
from New Orleans says: Chairman of
the Indianapolis convention, Senator
Caffery and E. H. Farrar. who spoke at
Lake Charles in the interest of Palmer
and Buckner Tuesday night, report they
were roughly treated by hoodlums in that
town.
When Senator Caffery spoke he was
constantly interrupted by an organized
gang of rowdes and hoodluns, until he
was compelled to desist. The chairman
endeavored to have the hoodlums ar
rested, but the police refused to do any
thing, whereupon the mob applauded.
After several more attempts on the
part of Mr.. Caffery to speak, Chester
Brown, a Republican appealed to the au-
dience not to disgrace Lake Charles, and
he was backed by enough men to assure
order. The mob then left the courthouse
and held an opposition meeting in front
of Il.
They waited there until Senator Caffery
left the courthouse when they formed in
double lines and as he passed out jeered
and yelled at him, Safeguarding the
senator and threatening to egg him. They
followed his carriage to the hotel, howl
ing and shouting at him. A similar scene
followed on the senator's way to the rail-
way station and the proprietor of the
hotel was compelled to interfere to pro-
tect the senator from Insult.
