Special Cable Dispatches to THE Sun.
ST. PETERSBURG. Aug. 28.-President Faure
entertained the Car and Czarina at luncheon
to-day on board the French cruiser PothuAn.
The occasion was made notable by the use OF
the word alliance" by both rulers.
The Gar proposed the toast: Onr two
nations, friends AMI allies. equally resolved TO
contribute all their resources to maintain the
peace Of tho world in the spirit OF right and
equity"
President Faure replied In substantially the
same terms.
President Faure's visit to the Gear ended this
afternoon, and NJ. Faure is now en- route TO
France aboard tho warship Pothuan, on which
he travelled to Russia. His departure was
made the occasion of a pro.French dcmonstra-
tion, the people ashore who gathered to witness
his leave-taking loudly cheering for France and
the President OF the republic.
After the usual farewells had been exchanged
between the Car and Czarina and their guest.
salutes we're fred by the forts and the Russian
wnrships in the harbor OF Cronstadt, and tho
French squadron proceeded slowly to sea.
As the French vessels passed the Russian
w~arships the crews Of the latter cried, "vive 10
Frouce!'' "vive IAlliancc!" thus putting be-
yond doubt any suspicion that might have lin
gered regarding the Franco-R Russian alliance.
PARIS. Aug. 26.-The press and public here.
undoubtedly disappointed because OF the fact
that there was no mention Of the alliance be-
tween France and Russia during the earlier
days Of President Fauro's visit to the Car, were
somewhat depressed. A majority Of the news
papers took tho fact calmly. some of them ex-
planning that the alliance was too genuine to
need proclamation, while tho public had become
reconciled M the prospect Of the blessed word
not being mentioned.
Hence the Cars toast at the banquet on the
Pothuan to-day came as a surprise. TIL even
ing newspapers became wildly enthusiastic over
his Majesty's language and the official recogni-
ton OF the alliance as shown by the cries of the
Russian sailors as the Potbuan was leaving
Cronstadt. and some Of them demanded that tho
city be immediately befaRged and Illuminated
in honor OF the great occasion.
1t will probably be found that the alliance
was not mentioned earlier for the reason that
the treaty was not signed at that time. Dur
ing VI. Faure's visit there were constant
prolonged conferences between Count Muravieff
and NJ. Hanotaux. respectively the Russian and
French Ministers of Foreign Affairs. some OF
which were attended by the Car and NJ. Faure.
These conferences have aroused much curiosity,
and, although 1t is not definitely known what
occurred at them. it is the general belief here
that they resulted in the signing Of the treaty Of
alliance.
That the alliance was first mentioned on board
the Pothuan and under the French flag will DO
regarded as a graceful courtesy on the part Of
the Gar.

Posts London financial cablegram
says: The feature in the stock market
here today was the sharp bear scram-
bic in Kaffirs,. which have been rushed
up 20 and % per cent. The settlement
disclosed a large bear position. This
partly accounts for the rise. but the
reports circulated as 10 the German
policy in Africa at the moment being
actively favorable TO this country,
have, there is excellent reason TO be-
lieve, every foundation in fact.
Now that the bear position in KAT

ever, it looks as though the rise were
too fast 10 last; still, 1 must report a
considerable public interest and it now

The Blue Mountains.

A great deal of interest is being taken
at the present time in the Blue Mount
ain mining district, in San Juan county,
this state, and this is destined to de-
velop into a great gold camp.
The Star of Dolores. Colo, in an ar
ticle on the merits OF this district, says:
The Blue Mountain Tunnel company,
recently organized in Salt Lake for the
purpose of driving a tunnel and sinking
shafts and doing surface work. This
company expects to commence active
work in a few days with a large force
of men.
The Gold Queen will commence work
on or about May Is with large force
of men and will push work with all
vigor. This mine has some very fine
mineral in sight
Frank Dixon. the Oldest prospector in
the Blue Mountain district, who was
the first man to discover gold in the
district on or about April 20, 1891, made
rich strike a few days ago. Mr.
Dixon deserves great credit for his
staying qualities, as ne has delved in
cessantly during his stay in the dis
trict and has at last been amply re-
warded for his untiring energy.
The Dream mine, owned by Cooley
& House of Cortez and also discovered
by them, is another very promising
property. Captain Jackson. prior to his
death, held a lease on this property,
which expires some time the latter part
of next winter. The Dream property
was worked steadily up to Captain
Jacksons demise.
The Dream mine will resume opera
tons in a few days under the super
vision OF Harry Owen. nephew and
former foreman of Captain Jackson.
