r Mckinley DEAD.
The Funeral Took Place Tuesday.

The mother of President Mckinley
passed away at her home in Canton,
Ohio, at 2 o'clock last Sunday morning.
The end had long been expected and at
the last moment she was surrounded by
all her children and immediate relatives
but she did not recover consciousness
and simply slept away.
Messages of coincidence were received
from all parts of the United States and
Europe. The floral offerings were so
numerous that the casket was almost
buried in a sea of flowers. The funeral
took place at the First Methodist Epis-
copal Church of which Mrs. Mckinley
had been a member for many years and
was attended by an immense crowd of
friends and sympathizers. The men,
bers of the Cabinet came from Wash
ington and were present in a body.
The funeral Grafton was delivered by
the Rev. DR.. Manchester, who was a
comrade in arms of the President dur
ing the war and has been the pastor OF
the First Methodist Episcopal Church
at Canton for years. The body was
laid to rest in the family lot at the
Westlawn Cemetery.

The Demand for Anthony.

A Chicago dispatch says that for fear
somebody might undertake to corner
the deposits of anthony, the National
Metallurgical company, hacker of Mr..
Brice, ''who is making gold out of that
article, p" has bought a mountain of it
in Utah, and now has ten teams haul
ing it to the depot, to be shipped to the
gold factory in Chicago. Mr.. Brice
says it costs the company laid down in
the factory, 800 a ton, and that from
each ton of the ore he makes 81. $50 in
gold.
While the story concerning the noun
tain of this ore is an exaggeration, it
does exist in more parts of Utah than
was ever dreamed of by the average
citizen before the Brice demand for it
arose, and in many localities "a search
for it is now going on.-S. L. Tribune.

mess.

Many bills have been introduced into
she Senate and House of Representa-
tives but the most important measures
are still in the hands of the committees.
These are the currency reform bill
and the ratification of the Hawaiian
Annexation treaty. On Thursday of
last week, Senator Hoar presented to
the Senate the petition of the Anti-An-
nexationists, a document covering 700
foolscap pages and containing q, 269
signatures. most OF them native Hawa-
iians. The Republicans have made a
mistake in making this an administra
ton measure and as a result have lost
the support of many of the Democratic
Senators. 1t is now estimated that
there are not more than fifty votes
which can be counted upon for the rat
~ification of the treaty.

Pettigrew of So. Dakota, granting to

week. Bills prohibiting the killing OF

a right of way to a railroad to the gold
fields of Alaska and for the building OF
steamboats, on the Yukon were also in

THE N LYNCHING
Special Grand Jury Called.

Nothing new has developed in the
lynching case at Genoa since the ap-
pearance of the following dispatch:
CARSON CITY, December 9.-The Of
icials of Douglas county have done
nothing so far to discover the identity
of the lynchers of Adam Uber.
Judge Mack of the First Judicial dis
trict arrived to-day. He Immediately
ordered Prosecuting Attorney Neagle
to cali "A special session of the Grand
Jury to meet December Goth that it
may investigate the affair. In the
meantime, Judge Mack says, every eff
fort will be made to hunt the guilty
parties to their holes. Judge Mack de-
clares that he will moi rest until the
perpetrators of the CRIME are brought
to justice.
The body OF Uber was buried t0-dar.
In addition to the sickening evidence
OF its horrid muti,ation, an ak or knife
wound was found on the left arm. This
wound, together with the gouging Of
the eyes ont OF their sockets, must
have been made before the body was
strung up"
The Board Of County Commissioners
met last Monday and failed to offer
any reward. 1t would seem as though
shey were afraid of the disclosures
which might follow if private citizens

New Mexico Demanding State

Delegate Ferguson, of New Mexico,
has introduced "a bill for the admission
of hat Territory to Statehood. 1t
provides for "a convention to be COM

delegate for any fraction over Zoo in

Statehood convention must have re-
sided in the Territory at least sixty
days before the election.
The Territory of New Mexico has a
population of 225, 900. Its area is 122, :
sos square miles, which is IL, 600 square
miles more than the area of Nevada,
and its assessable property in 1890
amounted to $42, 237, 696. It's vote at
the election in 1896 was over 36, 900 and
there appears to be no good reason for
refusing it admission into the galaxy of
States. A majority Of its people, like
those of other western States, are how

THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE
AS Carl Smith of the Chicago
Record Would Have Delivered 1t.

"Owing to the beneficent provisions
of the American system of protective
tariff gold has been discovered in the
vicinity of the 18th precinct of the 4th
ward in Dawson City, British America.
This is, of course, directly due to our
contagious financial policy. Last month
a man who landed at Seattle came east
ward fairly perspiring gold. He had
gold in his baggage, in his pockets, in
his hands and in his teeth. Indeed,
some people said he had a gold circula-
ton. Last year this millionaire was a
poor milkman in Grand Ledge, Mich.
Now, under the administration of the
party of patriotism, peace and pros
perity, he has gold to burn, and his
great sorrow is that it is not combust-
ible. Note the difference. A year ago
with a representative of the Mexican
peon and the Chicago coolie in the
