SAN FRANCISCO, July 24.-Recent
advices from Peru, which have been con-
firmed by c. De Miranda, petroleum
magnate, now in this city, state that the
wonderfully rich strikes reported from
the Clondyke region, have been totally
eclipsed by fabulous discoveries Of gold
in the South American republic. In an
interview today Mr.. Miranda said that
there no longer seemed to be any doubt
that the famous gold fields of the incas,
which have been considered as myths
among the Intelligent people of Peru,
have at last been discovered. The loca-
ton of the newly discovered bonanza ID

which have long been famous for their
richness in precious metals.
Among the successful prospectors in
the new fields is a Californian named
Hardison, who left San Francisco two
years ago in search of petroleum and
penetrated into the interior. In June
last he took out on one of his many
claims 279 pounds of gold, and many
Englishmen are reported to have been
equally lucky.

IN THE HOUSE
Brilliant oratory With No Object in
View

WASHINGTON, July 24-The last
session of the house was marked, by
many interesting events. In addition
to the final act of the speaker in fixing
his signature to the Dingley tariff bill,
a bill providing for the creation of a
currency commission was crowded
through in the closing hours, and the
spectators which thronged the galleries
were treated to a continuous, if not very
brilliant, fusillade of oratory for several
hours. The demonstrations which
marked these events were spontaneous
and enthusiastic in the extreme The
galleries played a significant part in
them. When the presidents message
came in recommending the creation of
a currency commission it was received
with the Republican leaders with great
promptitude. By means of special
order the Stone bill, introduced some
days ago, with the approval of the ad-
ministration, was brought to vote after
an hours debate. Considerable feeling
was manifested on both sides. There
was. of course, the usual attempt to
make political capital out of the situa-
ton, but all realized the bill would not
pass the senate ,and to that extent the
debate lacked seriousness. When the

The following pairs were announced
the first named for and the last against
the bill: Chandler with Cannon, Cullom

absence, withdrew his vote.
The result was announced amid ap-

THE MONEY MESSAGE
To the Congress OF the United States:
In my message coLvening Congress in
extraordinary session called attention
to a single subject, that of providing
revenue adequate to meet the reasonable
and proper expenses of government 1t
seemed to be the most pressing subject
for settlement then. A bill to provide the
necessary revenues for the government
has already passed the House of Rep
resentatives and Senate and awaits ex-
ecutive action.
Another question of Importance is that
of the establishment of our currency and
banking system on better basis, which
I commented upon in my inaugural ad-
dress in the following words:
"Our financial system needs revision;
our money is all good, but it's value must
not be further threatened 1t should all
be put upon an enduring basis, not sub
iect to easy attack. The forms of our
paper money offer, in my judgment
constant embarrassment to the govern
merit and imperil a safe balance in the
treasury.
Nothing was settled more clearly 1t the
late national election than the determi-
nation upon the part of the people to
keep their currency stable in value and
equal to that of the most advanced ma
tions of the world
The soundness of our currency is no
where questioned. No loss can occur to
its holders. The system should be SIM
