ncEmrhc ny SiGnitlcnnt.

Washington. January 6--In the absence
OF Senator Cameron the senate committee
on foreign relations did not take up the
Cuban question at its meeting today. When
the committee adjourned The opinion was
expressed by some Of it's members that the
Cameron resolution would not be pressed In
the senate. The committee agreed to ia
vorable reports on the extraditon treaties
with the Argentine Republic and the
Orange Free State
The fact that the Cuban question was
not considered at toiays meeting IL taken
as significant by the opponents of the Cam
orcn resolution. They contend that If it
had been the purpose of the committee to
call up the resolution for consideration in
the senate II would have been taken up
at today's meeting of the committee with
the view OF proceeding with it IN the sen
ate. Some members OF the committee. most
of whom are republicans who have been
supporters of the Cameron resolution. ex-
press the opinion that the committee Itself

friendly to the resolution announce they

support him They do not all say, how
ever. that II no concludes not to urge con
sideration that they will longer refrain.
senator Mills said today that while he
would probably wait until Senator Cameron
returned. he would lose no opportunity TO
urge a proper recognition OF the rights oil
the struggling Cubans.
There are also some republican senators
among whom is Senator Chandler. who are

Denver is rapidly coming to the front
i n the manufacture and sale of mining
mac hinery.
Even in mining there is not that
liveliness apparent that formerly pre-
vailed in Colorado, which is accounted
for largely by the collapse of specula-
ton, which left many promoters and
small dealers stranded. During the
boom period, previous TO 1893, specula-
tiou was rampant and the result is seen
today in many of the large mining
camps of Colorado, iu killing competi-
tiOn and empty store buildings and
enterprises aband OF ed for lack of cap

However, the m ming industry OF Col
Orado is on a healthy basis and the
mineral output is steadily increasing
But mining in the state now requires |
large capital and there is a lack of |
small inv stnents promising satisfac- |
tory returns. Mining men of moderate |
M ans are therefore looking for new |
fields in whicn to engage in mining.

showed lively interest in what he

ton of Il railroad to Globe is begun
