Mrs. Hattie Reed, beloved wife of Georg,
Reed and daughter of the late John r. Selby
departed this life February Goth, 1897, agec
81 years.
Farewell, dear cousin, you are at rest,
And shall forever be;
You could not stay on earth with us,
But we can go to thee.
Tears are falling dearest cousin,
Binding tears that quickly flow,
For my dearest cousin
Never more will meet below.
A bitter cup, a shock severe,
To part with one we loved so dear;
Our loss is great, we'll not complain.
But trust in God to meet again
Here while we must be parted,
And the flesh its Sabbath keep,
Waiting in a holy stiffness,
Wrapped in sleep.

New York. Aug. 6--Kerr & Thomas,

The company, according to him, then
organized the Gold Creek, Nevada, Con-

An Important Decision by the
Interior Department.
RIGHTS OF UNCOMPAHGRES
ALLOTMENTS TO BE MADE UN-
DER SPECIAL ACT.
This Gives the Head of Each Family
$40 Acres and Each Minor 100
Acres-Under the General Laws
They Would Have Received Much
Less-Must Pay For the Land.
Especial to The Herald.)

Washington, Aug. 6.-According to
an opinion rendered by Assistant At
torney General Vandeventer of the in
terror department today, the members
of the Uncompahgre Indian tribe in
Utah are to be allotted lands under the
special act relating to their removal
from Colorado to Utah.
The opinion reviews at great length
the acts of 1880. 1894 and 1897, and con-
cludes by saying that the Indians
should receive their allotments under
the first act
This provides that the head of each
family shall receive $50 acres each of
agricultural and grazing land, and that
each minor shall be allotted so acres of
each kind of land. 1t says that con-
gress plainly intended that the allot-
ments should be made under the spe-
cial act. The provisions of this act
were we'll known to congress. and had
it intended that allotments should be
made under general statutes, such in
tention would have been plainly eX
pressed in the act Of 1897, the last act
passed on the subject.
Under the general allotment law the
Indians would receive a much less
quantity of land. as that provides that
every member Of the tribe shall receive
but so acres of agricultural land.
The assistant attorney general also
decided today that these Indians are
required by the treaty made with the
general government at the time of their
removal from Colorado to pay SIPS per
acre for all lands allotted to them, to be
deducted from the proceeds of the sale
OF the reservation in Colorado.

New York. Aug. 6.-The Tribune says:
The boom in gold mining ventures that
the Klondyke discoveries have started in
this country has apparently spread to
England. For some time, agents repre-
senting several syndicates of London cap
italists have been in this city, endeavor-
ing to acquire gold mines of proved value
for exploration on the British market.
The latest deal reported in this city is
the sale by the Gold Greek Mining COM
pany of Nevada of its property TO a
British syndicate for sl5,O00.OO0. The
original capital stock of the company
was $500, O00 The greater part of the stock
is held by the officers Of the company,
who are Major Joseph L. Robertson,
president; Francis Dickson, secretary;
William H. V. Paulding. 5. l. Steele,
Henry J. Mayham, directors. Colonel b.
S. Bush, formerly chief engineer and con-
tractor of the CrOtan aQueducJ, is the
engineer OF the company. He estimates
that over S34 0.G00 in gold is contained in
the placerS, which contain 500 coo acres in
ElkO county, along the banks of Gold
creek. OF the above named officers.
only Messrs. Hutchinson and Dickson are
in town. Both refused to give any sx-
piicit information regarding the reported
sale.
Mr. Dickson admitted. however that
negotiations were in progress with an
English -r-dicate ard would probably be
completed n a short while Mr.. Hutch
insOn would only say that any statement
that the Gold Creek mines had been sold
was premature.

SENATOR TELLER's VIEWS.
Interesting Comment From One OF
the Silver Leaders.
(Special to The Herald.l

Especial Inc
Chicago, Aug. 6.-Senator Teller, who
is at the Auditorium hotel, said today:
mo matter how low the price of sill
yer may be forced. or how greatly it
may vary or fuctuate in the gold con-
trolled bullion markets of the world, II
will still remain one of the rare and
valuable, essential and necessary
money metals, not only on account OF
its intrinsic usefulness and value, and
its established and hereditary recoGnl-
ton by men and governments, but be-
cause there is not gold enough, and
in All human probability there. never
will be, to transact the money affairs
of men and nations, without the con-
current recognition and use of silver.
"A great ado is made about the late
apparent steady depreciation of silver
IT'S fall in price was not unexpected to
the friends and proponents of bimetal-
lism They realize that II the inter-
national gold trust is powerful enough
to control governments, the DoucleS OF
nations and the destinies OF the people,
the value of silver as a money metal
may be perpetually destroyed. 1t is
only a question whether the people will
submit 10 being made slaves to the
gold power.
Il expect to see wheat go to 81, and
hope it viii, in the interests OF the Iar-
mers. but the market controlled by
speculators and regulated by the guam
tity of wheat produced, first in one part
of the world, and then in another, does
not fix or effect permanently the real
value of wheat, which is an inherent
value. But this inherent value of wheat
is less stable for that commodity than
is the value of silver, for while many
countries produce wheat, the United
States produces nearly all the silver,
and if silver had not been betrayed
and assassinated by the gold shylocks
this country, with a himetaliic money
standard, could rule the silver market
OF the world.
1.-THE president has within ten DAYS
recognized the money question as the
most important one before the people
The very first day that the senate con-
venes next December this question will
come up.
THE administration wants to be for
tified with the report of such a COM
mission in favor of the Indianapolis
plan. or a similar one, but the senate
IS neither as docile nor as blindly par
Eisan as the house. We want no gold

London, Aug. 6.-The British govern
ment has informed the American BIZ
metallic commission that il will PROC
ably reply to the proposals of the COM
mission on behalf of the United States

The commissioners have been wait
ing in London since their conference
with the cabinet. to know the exact
position Of England, before c.ening ne
gotiations with other governments.
They wrote yesterday to the cabinet.
inquiring when they might expect a
decision, as they were anxious to ar
range their future programme.
Today Senator Wolcott received a re-
ply from Sir Michael Hicks Beach. in
the course of which the chancellor ex-
pressed a fear that the British govern
ment was not in position to reDlv to
the proposals Of the ENJOYS of the
United States and the French amoas-
sacor. on the question of an interna-
tional agreement. Sir Michael Hicks
Beach said:
1T is due, both to the Importance Of
the subject and the manner in which
it has been brought before the English
ministry by the representatives of the
two countries that these PROPOSALS
should be very carefully examined and
considered. and this process must be
somewhat prolonged, owing to the time
necessarily occupied in communicating
with the government of India"
The chancellor adds that he cannot
say with certainty how long these COM
municatioas viii take, but he hopes the
cabinet viii be ready TO meet the en-
VOWS again early in October.
While this postponement of England's
decision delays the work. the Ameri-
can envOys do not consider it discour-
aging. On the contrary. they think
Great Britain's interest in the question
justifies them in expecting that the In
dian minis will be opened. They be-

posed to any change. The report made

VERY CERULEAN.
Reports That Should Have a Good
Effect.


San Francisco, Aug. 6.-Speaking Of the
Klondyke output of gold, the chief clerk
of the mint says:
"All the gold brought to this city from
the Alaskan mill viii not exceed S. 000, 000
and all that has been taken out this year
and sent 70 other minis of the country
will not exceed 50. 600 600.
The gold from there is generally
from 81 70 So fine, the average being worth
from $3.50 to SIT an ounce"
J. c. Butler of the Pullman Car COM
pany is in receipt of a letter from Repre-
sentative Taylor. a financial broker of
Seattle. A few days ago Taylor received
word from some men whom he sent to fhss
Klondyke region last spring. in which
they inform him that every claim within
$50 miles of Dawson City has been taken
and the men are rushing all over the
country looking for locations. Starvation
and hardship stare many of them in the
face.
Captain Niebaum of the Alaska Coal
company, who has made a study of the
situation, thinks there viii be a great deal
of suffering in that region.
4 letter from Hart Humber, a prOspec-
tor, dated Dawson City, June IS. Just re-
ceived, shows that the goldseeker needs
plenty of capital. After reaching Dawson
and paying the heavy duty on his outfit
besides 80 cents pound for getting il
over Chilcot pass, he viii have to pay
D cents a pound to get his stuff from
Dawson to the diggings.

WYOMING OUTLAWS.
Devine's Posse Not Strong Enough
to Cope With Them.
(Speclal to The Herald.)

Lander, Wyo.. Aug. 6.-Ex-Deputy
Sheriff J. c. Baldwin, who is familiar
with the locality known as the Hole
in-the- Wall, expresses grave doubts as
to the ability OF Devine's posse of Cas-
per being able to penetrate that place.
He is satisfied that there are at least
100 members belonging to the Hole-in-
Wall gang and feels convinced that
they have all been called in to defend
the place against an attack by the De-
vine party.
Fremont county stockmen have lost
fully $4,000 worth of cattle by the
depredations of the Hole-in-t Wall
gang, and much surprise is expressed
here that they have not been invited
to participate in capturing the strong
hold of the robbers. 1t is generally
believed that the expedition from Cas-
per is entirely too small to accomplish
any good.
