Found Tn New Jersey Supposed to Have
 Been Deserted For Century.
 An Indian village has been discover. ed by Constable George ". Sneft of Egg Harbor City N J This was midway between Pomona and Mckee City.
 Sneft WAS fox hunting with party of friends and passed through the dense forests, when suddenly one of their humber spied an opening ill the thickest of the brush. They investigated it and found that 1t was an old Indian hut. still in good condition, as it was made of hickory wood
 A further search revealed four other huts, and around them wero found many arrowheads, darts, tomahawks and quantity of flint One of the tom- ahawks had q covering of some animal skin and sharp arrowhead fastened to an end This spot covered but an area of about 200 feet and is so thickly surrounded by brush that it is safe to say it was not trod upon for nearly century, although it is only 200 yards from well travelled road

RATE CUTTING.
Chicago Board of Trade Will Hold an
Investigation.

Chicago, March 25.-The Chicago
board of trade will on the first of next
month begin an investigation of al
legged extensive railroad rate cutting
on grain going east from this city and
1t is reported that the special commit
tees which have been appointed will
have the assistance of the interstate
commerce commission and the United
States grand jury. The plan is for
the commission and the board of trade
investigators TO meet at the same time
and pursue policy of mutual help,
with the object of presenting to the
grand jury any evidence of a violation
Of the commerce law If the develop
ments of the dual investigation war
rant such action a special federal grand
jury will be called to consider the in
dictment of offending shippers and rail-
road men. The board of trade directors
ordered an investigation after they had
received for weeks vigorous complaints
from shippers of grain, who allege they
have been shut out and have been I'M
able to move their grain owing to more
favorable rates of transportation being
given TO their competitors by railroads.
LASER Hooper & Co. and Darlington,
Hanna & Co. are said to be two of the
aggrieved shippers, and willing wit
nesseS are said to be on hand to testify
before any tribunal. The rate cutting
is said to have been done for more than
two months by half a dozen of the
ten east-bound lines from Chicago. On
scorn for export the rate has been cut
to cents per 100 pounds; on all other
grains, 5 cents; on domestic corn,
cents, and 215 to 5 cents on all other do
nestle grain. The roads are also ac-
cused of manipulating rates by absorb
ing transfer and switching charges.
The federal officials hope that the in
curry will disclose eliminating evidence
against the alleged beeef trust and it's
railroad accomplices. The effect of the
grain rate discrimination has been to
concentrate the grain shipping bust
ness here practically in the hands of
three firms and permitting two or three
others TO handle a small share of the
business. as

CHICAGO GENERAL MARKET.
May Wheat Closes at a Decline
Pork, 21a Lower-Oats Also Down.

| chicago, March 25.-Eine growing
weather over the winter wheat region
gave wheat prices a downward inclina-
! ton at the start today, but after the
first orders were executed, offerings be-
came less plentiful, and a Steadier tone
took possession of the market Liver
pool declined I'd per opening cables,
which loss was not equal to the depre-
citation here yesterday, the Indifferent
response being one reason for the firm
ness which developed after the OPEN

and 4i6 a year ago. Chicago receipts
were eight cars, and "A, 262 bushels were

Oats-The business in oats was quite
unworthy of note. Local traders pre-
served the semblance of a market and
that was all. After an easy opening
the tone strengthened with the other
grains. Receipts were light at IS cars.
There were no Withdrawals from store.

retarded seeding of oats, due to mois-
ture. Exports amounted to 10000

at the opening. The hog receipts were
light, but an early advance of &c at the

sufficient potency to cause a rally.

rather heavy chester whites of superior
quality being sold at 4.30. No other
sale occurred above AIS. the general
market starting off sc per 100 pounds
higher. but weakening later, with the
advance largely lost. There was a run
of only about $4,000, and the receipts so

Washington, March 25.-Concerning the
recent action of Japan in adopting the
| gold standard Senator Wolcott. who has
but recently returned from abroad. after
| interviews relating to the proposed in
/ ternational monetary conference on be
half of this government. this afternoon
said:
THE monetary situation in Japan is not
only interesting, but most far-reaching.
and. perhaps. not generally understood.
THE result which japan seeks is to
make permanent the depreciation of silver
in relation to gold. and to preserve there
by the advantages which this deprecia-
ton naturally gives to japanese agri-
cultural and Japanese industries, and it
is not in any sense an attempt to equal
ize values.
There was a time in the history of the
United States when we might haSo taken
step identical with that which Japan
now proposes. If. during the years of our
civil war. when our money was worth
but > per cent of the gold dollar. We had
by law declared that henceforth our dol
lar should be of value of 30 cents only.
in gold. such legislation would have been
parallel with that which japan evidently
intends. We chose to follow a different
path
The action of japan accords. in u
measure. with that of Austria few
y
jected in Russia, with this difference:
Austria forced the permanent deDrecia-
ton of its money. measured in gold to the
extent OF some Is per cent: Russia Will
establish = reduction of about SO per
cent in value of its rouble while japan
proposes to permanently deDreciate its
exchange relative TO gold. so as to lower
the value of the yen to about IS cents on
the dollar. The action of Japan must
not be construed as an attempt to es-
tabliSh and maintain a gold standard;
it is simply an attempt to preserve the
economic advantages which she at pres
ent enjoys. because of the gold premium
which exists in japan and this at the
expense of the great commercial coun-
tries of the world. which have hereto
fore maintained the stability of their
coinage as well as their financial integ-
rity.
.'Of course at the present price of sill
yer, measured by gold. the result of the
action of japan would be to drive all it's
silver out of that country. 1t is Drema-
ture, however, to attempt to forecast
the full effect of her action in this re-
spect.
THE course of japan must. in my
opinion. only serve to hasten some agree
ment between the leading commercial
nations of the world looking to a settle
ment of this question upon an inter-
national basis

MARKET QUOTATIONS.
Judge Horton of Chicago Decides
That They Are Public Property.

That They Are Public Property.
Chicago, March 25.-In the iniunc-
ton suit instigated by the board of
trade to restrain the telegraph COM
panies from furnishing outsiders. and
especially bucket shops, with market
quotations, Judge Horton decided
against the board this morning. He
declares that the quotations are public
property and cannot be withheld by
the board.
The court overruled a motion to dis
solve the temporary injunction re-
stralning the board of trade the West
ern Union Telegraph company, the
! Postal Telegraph-Cable company, and
the Gold and Stock Telegraph COM
pany from detaching telegraph wires
from the alleged bucket shops, from
removing ''tickers," or from interfer-
ing in any way with their supply OF
market information.
The market news the court says,
being a species of property of public
consequence, the board of trade shall
not be permitted to deprive the public
of such Information. The supreme
court has said that so long as the
board is in existence, it must not dis
crimlnate in the distribution of its
quotations, and shall be required to
furnish information to all persons at.
has become a sort of public agent, con-
trolling to considerable extent public
interests and the interests of individ-
ual members of that public who may
be engaged in business affected by the
market news established by the board
of trade.
Telegraph companies are agents for
the public. The court does not want it
understood that any individual has
right to go upon the floor of the ex-
change and gather news, but approves
of the rules and regulations permitting
the telegraph companies to distribute
the news"
Concluding, the court says: These
market quotations have become clothed
with public interest in behalf of such
producers, consumers. shippers, mer-
chants and dealers only as are engaged
in legitimate business and such as use
or furnish the same for use in the
legitimate business transactions of the
country. The law never stamps pri-
waite property with a public interest for
the benefit of the law-breakers."
