Freight to 60 via Eureka.

II 10 now automatically reported that
freight for Ely merchants will go by way
Of Eureka. This change will be seriously
felt In Wells and Toano. as nearly all the
freight for points south have been handled
at these places for many years past. The
new route is decidedly the shortest. but
whether ID will prove to be the cheapest
and most satisfactory remains to be seen.
The distance from Eureka 70 Ely is ninety
miles, and from Wells to Ely about $50
miles. but the roads are kept in better
shape and there is less grade on this side
than via Eureka. Lumber. machinery and

FINANCIAL VIEWS OF MIR. GAGE.
Those Flying Around Said To BE Very
Garbled and Misleading

Washington, Oct. 16.-Various garbled
and misleading statements are going out
purporeinS torepresent Secretary Cages
latest views and to be outlines, more
or less skeletonized, of his financial plan.
Most of these statements are based on
an understanding OF what was con-
tanned IN the circular letter sent out
last spring. and have been much modi-
fied by developments since then. Cages
views are by this time fully matu-ed,
but he has not put them In writing and
has not discussed them in quarters
where there is any possibility of leak
Secretary Cages attention was called
to what purports to be an authorized
statement Of his financial plan which
appeared in a Philadelphia newspaper,
based as nearly all the others have been.
on crudely given presentation of the
substance OF last springs circular letter
Assistant Secretary Vanderlip, after a
consultation with Gage, made the fol-
lowing statement: LAS a summary of
the proposals which the secretary did
submit to the leading Ananciers a few
months ago this report is 50 garbled as

We're correct summary no significance
should be attached to II, since the sec
retary's proposals We're tentative, and
were submitted to financiers to see what
thsy thought Of them. without definitely
committing even Mr.. Gage himself to
their support.
Besides, his own view has changed

ject. and certain plans which he might
have favored three months agohe would
