DOWN FOUNTAIN SIDES.
Island of Socorro Again in an Erup-
tive State.


SAN FRANCISCO, May 23.-The is
land of Socorro, 400 miles off the Mexi-
can coast. is in a state of eruption.
Two months ago, which is the latest
date that news was received on the is
land. lava streams were running down
the mountain sides. overlooking the
lowlands and travelling to the sea.
The news came in letter to the Hy-
geographic office from the schooner
Tampa at Tacoma. Captain Peterson
of the vessel spoke the Danish bark
Schwalbe off Guaymas, which reported
having passed Socorro on March 20.
The sky and sea were filled with ashes
miles away from the island and the
blazing mountain was first made out at
night. 1t was a magnificent sight, the
Danish captain said, but he did not
dare venture too near on account of
the troubled condition of the ocean.

Total $50. ...$2O 500, $40 SO
OF the appropriation of 1896, viz:
$49, S65, there is yet due to the asylum
in state warrants, the amount of $34,-
077.50.
From the statement of amounts due
to Wells-Fargo, and Deseret National
banks, for monies borrowed and re-
manning unpaid to April go 1896, viz:
SCI, $50, it will be seen that the asylum
will have left over for its use, for care
and maintenance (when these loans are
paid Off until the next legislature
meets, the amount of S61,515, in state
warrants, which are negotiable paper.
1 have carefully audited and check
ed the books and accounts, including
some 1000 invoices, also all receipts and
disbursements from November, 1898 to
April 80, 1896.
L have also checked the outstanding
loans with the different banks, as also
the warrants held by them as collateral
for loans.
1 found but one error worthy of no.
tice, viz: An invoice amounting to So,
in favor of the Provo Hardware COM
pany, and for which two checks had
been drawn in payment for the same
bill, and passed into the account.
The invoices showed careful audit
ing before having been paid, and on
many I noticed that the steward, Mr..
Dunn, had made deductions, where
rates, weights and extensions were in
error.
l also found authority of the board
at their regular meetings for payment
of all bills against the institution, and
vouchers were on file, properly re-
ceipted, for all disbursements, also for
all checks given in payment for all
h nd Ia rio chr
ing the proper payment and cancella-
ton by the bank.
A careful inventory had been taken
of all property belonging TO the asylum
for the years 1894 and 1895.
A requisition book is also kept for all
supplies furnished the different wards
and departments by the steward, and
in many instances found the supplies,
as requested by the attendants, were
cut down to the actual requirements,
as understood by the steward, showing
a disposition to be economical.
If permitted, / would like to suggest,
that all notes given for loans by the
asylum, be numbered in consecutive or
der, and that the same be properly re-
corded, and when paid that they be
cancelled by defacing the signatures,
and the notes be properly filed away,
which has not always been the case
heretofore
The asylum has many valuable books
and papers, including the commitments
of patients, which are filed away in
cupboard, owing to the snallness of
tbs safe and having no vault, and in
case Of fire the institution might be
placed to serious inconvenience if not
loss, by not having their papers and
books in secure place.
Another suggestion I would like to
make, that ali commitments, where
patients are shown on the same that
their guardians or parents so able to
pay, that the steward be obliged to
give to the treasurer a list of the de-
hnquent payments once a month, and

ICE TRUST MEETS A DIFFICULTY.
Maine Schooners Refuse to Carry at TIL,

New York, April 30.-The Herald says
obstacle in it's effort to control the entire
product of Maine. The carriers of ice
from the houses along the Kennebec and
the Penobscot rivers to this city, Phila-
delphia and Baltimore have rebelled.
Morse & Company, of which Charles
W. Morse is the head, as he is the chief
manipulation of the Ice Trust, own fleet
of sohooners and barges, used in trans
porting coal from the Middle to the New
EnglandSStates, but at present the Trust
has not enough vessels at it's command to
transport the necessary amount of Ice to
this port, leaving out Of consideration
Philadelphia and Baltimore. In conse-
quence overtures have been made TO
owLers of sohooners of all sorts, and the
trust has also sent agents to Boston,
Portland and Bath, with instructions to
secure every bottom which would or
could carry ice. There was apparently no
difficulty in securing an enormous
amount of tonnage, and this led MIR
Morse to send instructions to Bath to re-
fuse to give the rates charged, but to cut
them down from thirty to fifty per cent

to accept his rate.
When MIR. Morse instructed his agents
to offer fo-ty-fiye cents az ton, the prop
osition was absolutely rejected. The
owners then proceeded very quietly, to
look around for other freights. The
plaster mills in Nova Scotia are busy at
this season of the year, and the resulst is
that the big feet is proceeding northward
with the determination to carry anything

association.
Meanwhile the Ice Trust is using every
effort in this city to secure barges that
are staunch enough to withstand the
great strain of a long ocean voyage,
laden with ice.
Shipping men here doubt the Trusts
ability to transport sufficient ice from
Maine to meet the demands of warm
weather, in case it refuses to pay the
associations rate Of sixty cents ton to
this port.
