Tho Reno journal says that during

authorities made notes Of tho NTH
tudc Of certain newspapers and men
concerning the prosecutions Of the

names Of the men who seemingly

devoted Ia futile attempts To white.
wash the mint administration when
silver bars were being substituted
for gold ones. These notes are now
said to Inc filed away in tho archives
Of the department. Tho journal
thinks that this fact will defeat tho

matter with it. The Spanish naval en-
ginc1r&, probably to conceal their own
ig"u.aliIo OF their science, cry aloud that
fraud was perprtratrd in England, the
Spanish Government having been deceived
in Tie purchase Of the dock. But others
say that the dock came from England in
good condition and that something fatal
was done to it in Havana. Others srlS-
pcct that the trouble has been caused by
'tt ban conSpirator>.'
1t is said tha the whole business Of
the deck has cost the Spanish Govern
