CALIFORNIA PIONEERS IN CHICAGO
Celebration in Concentration of the
Discovery of Gold

Discovery of Gold.
Chicago, Jan. 24.-California pioneers
resident in this city and other parts of
the state gathered in force at the Sher-
man house this morning for the annual
celebration in commemoration of the
discovery of gold In California January
"a, 1S4S. Nearly all of those present
were aged men who had crossed the
continent in search of gold, and many
of them were accompanied by the ven
cradle wives whom, in the days of
their youth, they had left behind them
for awhile when they went to the Pa
cific in search of fortune. The bust
ness meeting of the western association
of California pioneers was held this
morning, and 200 men and women sat
down to the banquet at 2 o'clock. Hon.
]. M. Studebaker of South Bend, Ind,
spoke of the pioneers of that state, and
about a dozen of the oldest of the party
recounted their experiences In feeble
tones
Addison Ballard, who went to the
gold fields in 1S49, presided, calling the
meeting to order with gavel made
from the wood of the hanging tree at
the Hangtown and Potter mine.
After the routine business was trans
acted the members sat down to the
banquet and exchanged "reminiscences
of the days of gold and their advent
ures in crossing the plains or rounding
the horn. One member, E. C. Crane,
walked all the way in 1S49. The Oldest
member is Benjamin r. Nickerson of
Chicago SIS years of age.

A Bill Which VIII Increase the Treasur Z,
Reserve Many Millions.

Denver, Jan. 25.-A special to the
Times from Washington says: A bill
which is on the program to be put
through both houses of congress in
short order provides for the coinage of
$100 OOO, 900 in silver bullion stored in the
minis into subsidiary pieces. 1t is stat
ed that there is always a good demand
for smaller coins in the spring, and
many banks purchasing for their
customers refuse to take pieces which
are at all abraded. To take advantage
of this demand and thus reduce the
bulk of silver in store is regarded as
desirable. The government would de-
rive an extra profit from this, as the
seignorage on token coins is about 5
cents more on the dollar than that on
silver dollars. AS 1t is now there are
$50, 000 900 seignorage available for the
proposed increase of the subsidiary
coinage. All the rest of the silver is
required by the Sherman law to be
used only for the coinage of standard
dollars, hence the need of the proposed
new legislation in order to make the
amount $10O,OOO00O.

washington, Jan. 23.-Ex-Congress-
man Hatch Of Missouri, Hon. J. Hewes
of Maryland and ii. c. Adams of Wis
consin, have established headquarters
In this city in behalf of the National
Dairy Union which represents interests
aggregating six billions of dollars, and
which recently held its annual conven-
ton in Chicago, for the purpose OF pro-
curing the introduction in congress as
well as the passage of a bill to limit
the effect of the commerce clause of the
constitution with respect to oleomar-
garine and filed cheese, or what Is
known to the dairymen as the Hill
ApsleyGrout bill of the Fifty-third
congress.
Another bill aims at the regulation
of the manufacture and the sale OF
filled cheese, while a third provides
for the registering of state trade marks.
1t is thought that all three measures
can be successfully pushed through
congress at its present session, although
strong opposition is anticipated from
the manufacturers and wholesale vend-
ers of fraudulent dairy products.
