Commissioned to take up the matter, and

irst Important Sep was the selection
treed of dogs possessing all the
iuaiieios necessary for the purpose,
IL: obedience, watchfulness, intelli-
scncc. fidelity and perseverance. These

was, therefore, selected by Bungartz.
The equipment of the dog consists of
strong collar with small leather,
poc!ietkool for letters, u small water
proof blanket for his rest at night emo
:wo pockets containing small sur
SeoH's oatft, linen, medicines and a
small amount of dog biscuit. The en-

can be easily carried by the dog for
days.

excellent courier, and runs from hos

fully delivering messages intrusted to
his care as fast as a cavalryman, with
much less danger to both courier and,

He also carries small lantern on his

! Hive Resigned.

New YORK, March IA dispatch
to the Herald from Havana says:
1t is learned on the very highest au-
thority that Captain-General Weyler
has forwarded his resignation to the
Spanish government at Madrid. The
captain-general, it is said, will leave
the island as soon as possible, probably
in about three weeks.
This decisive step General weyler
determined to take as soon as he heard
of the release of Julio Sanguilly. The
captain general said he would resign if
the crown interfered with his policy
with regard to prisoners, especially
Americans, and he was incensed be-
yond measure at being ignored in the
negotiations carried on by the Spanish
government in the case of the notable
captive, Sanguilly, who was released
on Friday.
1t is reported that General Ramon
Blancoy Arenas, the Marquis of Pena
Plata, may be appointed to succeed
General Weyler

Troops to Florida Coast.
CHICAGO, March IA special in the
Tribune from Tallahassee, Fla, says:
From an incautious word dropped by
a prominent state official here, it is as
certained that the government has
been making arrangements for some
days past to forward the quick trans
portation of federal troops through
Florida in case of necessity" The
story is that the railroads have been
asked to communicate with Northern
lines and have special trains ready at
moments notice to transport govern
ment troops to all points on the sea-
coast. 1t is also stated that the Wash
ingtou authorities have been in COM
munication with the state officers in
regard to calling out the state troops If
necessary, and to provide for their
quick transportation to points needed.
1t is understood that this has heen
going on very quietly for the past week,
and that all arrangements have been
completed, so that at a moments
notice troops could be thrown into
Tampa, Key West, st. Augustine and
other coast towns and Jacksonville.
AT St. Augustine, it is said, the troops
have been warned to be in instant
readiness for movement. The guns at
the fort there have been put in work.
ing condition and the troops have been
practicing with them constantly for
the past week or so.
Several torpedoes have been placed
in the outer harbor at Key West, St.
Augustine and Tampa bay. The state
troops officers have been worked up
over the reports of being called upon
for duty, and several have sent their
voluntary offers to the governor. The
state troops are composed of 20 COM
panies of about 100 men each, and four
batteries.

MADRID, Feb. 26.-Extreme reserve
is maintained in official circles. Much
importance is attached to a secret con-
ference between the premier and min
listers on the state of the war In Cuba.
The procedure of the United States
consul-general is regarded as ''intoler-

is disposed to investigate and meet the
reasonable demands of the United

citizens. 1t is further determined to
punish those found guilty of having i'm
ficted violence upon DR.. Ruiz, the
American citizen alleged to have been
beaten to death in prison.

DRIVEN FROM THE RESERVE.
Indian Police Protect wichita Mountain
Gold Fields

Gold Fields.
PERRY, o. T., March News has
been received that United States troops
and Indian police are driving gold
hunters out OF the Wichita mountains,
in the Wichita Indian reservation. For
some years it has been known that
gold existed in paying quantities in
these mountains, and the Indians pos
sessing this knowledge have carefully
guarded the richest mining locations
from the intrusion of the whites. Large
bodies of prospectors have been driven
out OF the mountains, and some sharp
battles have on occasions taken place
between them.
There seems to be a well-organized
and determined effort to enter the rich
gold fields, which it is believed exist
in these mountains. During the month
more than q thousaLd prospectors have
gone into that country and have been
secretly prospecting, sleeping in the
day and working at night. Many have
been hiding in caves. Troops are try
ing hard to keep the prospectors out,
but the excitement is great, and it is
believed that large numbers will take
possession of the country.

HANNA AND HQAR.
They Consulted over The Situation in
Oregon.

Oregon.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 27.-Chairman
Hanna and party arrived at the Arling-
ton hotel this morning. Hanna went
TO the capitol Immediately and was in
conference with the republican sena-
tors. He had an extended consultation
with Senator Hoar, chairman of the
judiciary committee, upon the sena-
torial situation in Oregon.
An effort is being made by Hanna,
as chairman of the national committee,
to secure the election of a republican
senator from Oregon. The fact that.
the legislature never organized raises
the question as to the ability of those
now sitting at Salem to adjourn. --4-.
There has been considerable tele--
graphic correspondence between
Hanna and the republicans of Oregon,
and it may result in an agreement OF
the republicans of the legislature to
elect a senator.
Hoar indicated to Hanna his belief
that an appointment by the governor
would not be accepted by the senate.
VOLCANO IN GREAT SALT LAKE.
It Causes the Water to seeth and
Boil.
SALT LAKE, March 1.-What
appears to be genuine volcano has
burst forth in the Great Salt lake
short distance south of Promontory
station, on the Central Pacific road.
The phenomenon recently appeared in
the shape of a small cloud lowering
over the water about mile from shore.
1t gradually increased in dimensions
and shot up so high in the air that it is
now visible great distance, and the
water in the vicinity boils and seeths
and the spray ia thrown In the air for
hundreds of feet. The volcano is situ-
ated in big arm of the lake, on the
wess side of range of mountains and
is distinctly visible from Brigham
Ci+y.
The phenomenon is accounted for
by the fact that for six months there
have been felt several slight shocks of
earthquake in these regions, and it is
supposed the fire and lava which have
been confined in the subterranean
depths have found an outlet and are
spending their force.
A number of people have witnessed
the phenomenon, which causes great
anxiety in the vicinity.
