Giganiic Mining Deal.

A Butte, Montana, dispatch of the
9Th inst. says: According to an an
nouncement to-day from %unquestion-
able authority, the English syndicate
represented by Hamilton Smith has
purchased the entire Anaconda mining
properties with the exception of a por-
ton of that owned by Marcus DAILY.
The deal, it is said, was closed last
night, but the consideration is not
known, although it is said to be from
$35. OO0, 900 to $40, O00, 900. The nego-
tiations have been pending for some
time, the syndicate refusing to pur-
chase unless Mr.. DAILY would retain his
interest and remain as manager of the
property. He, it is said, desired to re-
tire frop active life and spend the re-
msinder Of his years in the East and
said he would under no circumstances
remain with a minority interest in the
company. 1t is announced that he
will remain in absolute management
of the company, which indicates that
the purchasers made it an object to
him to remain. The particulars Of the
deal are withheld from the public. MIR.
Smith denied that there had been any
such deal, but others interested in it
say that the property has passed into
new hands.

PEACE NEGOTIATIONS.
Rucini Says They Will Be Conducted With
Prudence and Dignity.

ROME, March 1.-THE entry OF the
new ministers into the chamber of de-
puties today was greeted with loud ap-
plause from their supporters.
The premier, Marquis Di Rudini, said
that after the defeat the cabinet had
opted resolutions leaving General
Baldissera free to take proper measures to
meet the situation, including abandon
ing Aigart and Kassala If the genearl
judged such measures to be expeddient.
On March 8, the premier continued, Gen.
eral Baldissera was instructed to treat
for peace on the best terms obtainable.
1he premier assured the house the pres
ent cabinet would continue the peace ne
gotiations with prudence and dignity,
adding: "But the government is now
convinced that in lieu of a treaty of peace
hurriedly made 1t would be far prefer
able to first establish a state of things
agreeing with Italy's interests; in the
meanwhile, hostilites must continue"
Italy would never pursue policy or
expansion. She did not wish TO conquer
the Tigre district and did not desire to
include an Italian protectorate of Abys-
SINH among the cond of peace. but
the dignity and, honor of the country
must be upheld"
The premier then asked the chamber
for a credit of 10000 600 lire for the. ex-
penses of the arm" In Africa, which was
unanimously granted.
In conclusion, the premier made a
strongly sympathetic appeal to the cham
Der for CONGO q and concluded with the
remarks: "Let us follow the same pru
dent course in our foreign policy as That
which has heretofore secured us friends
and alliances" (Cheers and cries of dis
sent. On the whole the Marquis Di Ru-
oini was warmly received by the depu-
ties, alth, ugh naturally there are some
who do not favor the policy he has mark
ed out, but even the strongest advocates
of policy OF peace joined in tremen-
dous burst OF enthusiasm when the pre-
mier paid a glowing tribute to the hero
ism displayed by the Italian army. The
Marquis seemed actually astonished at the
excitement which his words caused. lie
received perfect ovation from all parts
of the house, the deputies rising and
cheering wildly for Italy, the Italian
army snd the premier.
The Senate adopted a resolution thank
ing the British parliament for its express
sions of sympathy with Italy and her
soldiers as expressed in the House of
Commons yesterday by the under secre-
tary of state for foreign affairs, Mr..
George N. Cuue)n.

OPEN DEFIANCE.
The Way French and Russian Iuterfer-
ence is Regarded.

ROME, March 17.-lt Is reported that
the new cabinet will make another credit
OF $4,000, 900 lire with which.to defray the
timated in these dispatches some time ago
it has been. currently reported here that
Russian and French agents have been for
a long time-past busily at work al Abys-
sinia supplyin the natives with arms and
ammunition of the latest makes, and II Is
openly asserted here now that number
OF Russian and French officers are attach
ed to the armies OF Abyssinia and took
part In the recent battle of Adowa and
the operations which preceded II. These
assertions have never been denied and ex-
ira color is lent.to them by the announce
ment that the ear has conferred upon
King Menelek, the high Russian military
order of st. George, e&i that Baron Meyss
endorf. councillor of the Russian em-
bassy here, Is to transmit the decoration
to the Negus.
Such a step, in view OF the recent dis
aster to the Italian arms and the action
of Austria, Germany and Great Britain in
supporting Italy in the emergency, Is
looked upon here as being, IL true, little
less than an open defiance to the Drei-
bund and Great Britain. Inquiries at the
Russian legation have faile1, up to the
present, TO either obtain a denial or a
confirmation of the ieported decorating
Of the Negus by the Gar and equal ignor-
ance was expressed in regard to the rumor
that Abyssinia had asked Russia to inter
vene between herself and Italy in order
to bring about the re-establishment of
peace on the basis of the independence
of Abyssinia, and the restoration of the
old frontiers of Erythrea.
In any case, 1t is currently reported in
military circles here that, now that Great
Britain has come out openly in support of
Italy and the Dreibund, "pedcee at any
likely TO be the policy OF the government,
and in view of the great sum of money
the government is to ask from the cham
bers, IL is considered much moro likely
that the war will be prosecuted with
vigor, although probably on different
lines.

Distinguished Missionary
of Fifth Century.
Was Carried to ireland When
Is Years Old.
Historical Record of the Wonderful
Work He Accomplished.

What is the connection between the
question was asked msn on Weybosset
street this noon, but he didn't know,
and he wore shamrocks in his button
hole, too. He knew that today is st.
Patrick's Day, however, in spite OF the
clear sky and balmy atmosphere, for it
is proverbial that the Seventeenth of
March is clustering, bleak, stormy,
cofd, etc., etc.
However, the slush under foot today
is enough to make the heart of the ordi-
nary Irishman quail, however loyal, and
it was question whether there would
be any parade or not, it having Teen
stated that the Pawtucket parade was
postponed until next Saturday.
st. Patrick was distinguished mis-
sionary of the fifth century commonly
known as the Apostle of Ireland. He Is
said to have driven the snakes out of
Ireland, but that is mere romance.
There is some uncertainty as to the date
and place OF his birth, but it is generally
assigned TO 372. In his 10th year while
working on his fathers farm at
Bannanem Taberniae, he was seized
by pirates, carried to Ireland,
ana sold to petty cher.
ne NdS III MS SERVICE Elk ythTs. tsChptu,
and finally went to France. where he be-
came monk. In 432, when he was @
years old. st. Patrick went as missions
ary to Ireland, where he labored over 20
years. After various experiences he went
to preach to the King OF Tara and is said
to have used the shamrock to illustrate
the doctrine of the trinity. This is a
modern legend, however. He met with
much success in Christianizing the ancient
Irish system Of belief and practice. He Is
said TO have founded 365 churches, bsp-
tlzed IL, coo persons by his own hands,
and consecrated $50 bishops, besides
ordaining vast number of priests and
blessing many monks and nuns.
The date OF st. Petrick's death Is also
uncertain.
Today many green flags and decorations
are to be seen and green pinks are more
frequently worn in the buttonholes than
shamrocks.
The arrangements for the local parade
were fully detailed in Yesterdays NEWS

PUBLIC MARKET SCHEME.
Strong Objections to Location Anywhere
Than at Market Square.

The hearing on the central or public
market project is likely to develop con-
siderable opposition to locate the market
over on the Cove lands somewhere in the
vicinity of the State Normal School. In
deed that proposition has aroused con-
siderable adverse criticism already which
has been heard more or less distinctly at
the city hall. The sentiment as ex-
pressed by those who visit the city
hall while decidedly favorable TO the
erection of a public market is very antag-
onistic to location anywhere ON the
Cove lands.
gentleman who has been for years a
supporter of the public market scheme
SAID this morning that the prorer place
for sucn market Is the space over the
river between Crawford street bridge,
Market Square, Dyer and South Water
streets. AS far ss they can do SO under
pie have already selected that
site, fact which Will
be apparent to any one who visits that To-
cality early in the morning any time be-
tween May and November. There is
ample spree here for an adequate market
building and moreover thessite will cost
the city no,ning. The chief .point in Ia
vor of this location, however, is that {
is central Every street car line in the city
passes 1t, fact which is of the highest
Importance. The great bulk of the peo-
pie who will avail themselves of the sd-
vantages of public market will have to
use the street cars and 1t is essential that
those cars should furnish direct transpor-
tation to the market. No other location
than.that at Crawford street and Market
square will afford opportunities for the
direct communication between homes of
Providence and public market. When
this gentleman's attention was called to
projected establishment of natatorium
at Crawford street bridge and Market
Square he said in his view and in the
opinion of vast majority of the citizens,
he believed q public market was of
vastly more importance that a public
bathing house. Certainly, he added, ii
is of enough greater moment to give 1t
preference in the matter of location.
As to q natatorlum, he said there were
other eligible sites that might be used
for that purpose. There was space over
the river north of Market square which
would afford every facility the city or
citizens could ask for such an Q ia olish-
ment. Under no circumstances cid he
believe the 81 ace south of Market square
and between that point and Crawford
street should be devoted to any other
use than that of public market.

BattleShip Massachusetts.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, March 1.-THE
new United States battleship Massachu-
sstts steamed down the Delaware river
today bound for the Atlantic ocean where
she will be given her builders trial OF
Cape May within the next two or three
DAYS.
The Massachusetts, will steam slowly
down the Delaware and will probably
anchor in the bay over night. Tomorrow
after her compasses are adjusted she will
proceed to sea. The course over which
the battleship will be speedsd is 20 miles
OF shore, between the southwest and
northwest lightship which mark the lo-
c.tion OF five fathom bank and Is 9.65
knots long. The trial IL for the purpose
OF seeing how near the ship can come to
the guaranteed speed of 10 knots an
hour, and IL is not probable that she will
be speeded 10 her utmost this time.

N0RTON'S PRIDE.
Another Act of Vandalism at the Fogg
Art Museum.

nv VI NaHdaiAShi a. AVSS
Art Museum.
CAMBRIDGE, Mass, March 17.-WLen
the Harvard men came across the campus
this morning they saw on the rear wall
of the new Fogg art museum, in red
letters five feet high, the words "Norton's
Pride" The inscription reflects on the
architect of the building and is especially
pointed in view of the fact that the struc-
ture has been severely criticised since its
completion by Professor Charles Eliot
Norton, who was opposed to the
building before it was begun.
This act of vandalism Is another
in the list perpetrated within a
short time which points toward the
existence of a secret society whose ini-
tistion require rements are the perpetration
of some act which would call tor expulsion
from college II its author were found.
1t is thought the DETACHMENT OF the art
building can be remedied as the matter
was taken in hand as soon as the fact
was discovered early this morning.
