The men in the Spring Valley distit

claim to have the strike won, and ils

Views of Bradstreet's.

Bradstreets commercial report says:
"One Of the most significant features of
the business situation is found in the con-
tinued heavy weekly totals Of bank clear
ings, those for six days ending NOV. IL
amounting to 81, BAT 100000, an increase
of 10 per cent over the preceding week
and 10 per cent compared with the second
week of November, 1896. Other favora-
BILE features are the continued frmness
of and activity in wool, iron and steel.
The slight reaction in the price of cotton,
in view of the extreme depression to
which that staple had been subjected, at
tracts attention as the possible beginning
of the end of the prolonged decline. The
unfavorable influences in price move
ments are declines for cottons and print
cloths, the latter touching the lowest
price ON record. Wheat, lard and lead are
also lower and wire nails have been shad-
ed. There is a long list Of staples for
which prices are practically unchanged.
The more important advances are confin-
ed to Indian corn, oats, hoops and tur-
pentine. Exports of wheat flour includ-
ed as wheaD from both coasts of the
United States and from Montreal this
week amount to 5,445,542 bushels. COM
pared with O,OJU,UUO laSC week, f,OOf,OOO
a year ago, 1895, 600 two years ago, 2
100000 three years ago and 2,G4o,O0O III

amount to 2,651 ,546 bushels, against 2
10000 last week, 3,7S2, 600 year ago,
1,921,000 two years ago, $4,000 three

an increase in the number of business
failures, the total throughout the United
States this week being 273, compared
with 223 last week, 25S one year ago."

Put Government in Bad Light.


The State Department at Washington
is making it very uncomfortable for Senior
Don Enrique de Puy de LONE, the Span
ish Minister, The charge is laid at his
door that he has, in his communications
to Madrid, persistently and willfully mis-
represented the facts in connection with
the Cuban flibustering expeditions and
has made his home Government believe
that the Federal authorities winked at
this violation of international law, where
as he should have known that directly
the contrary was the case. The Spanish
Minister, assisted by his counsel, Cal
deron Carlisle, drew UP an Indictment
against this Government some time ago
in which was catalogued all the filibuster-
ing expeditions that had left American
shores with arms, ammunition and sup
plies for the Cuban insurgents, the facts
being so presented as to produce the I'M
preston that they could all have been
stopped if the United States had been
DESTROYS of so doing, and that failure to
prevent the filibustering made this Gov
eminent responsible for it ALL At the
State Department the claim is made that
the Spanish Minister was fully advised
which aye being made continually by our
Government to prevent filibustering, and
that he knew that more than $2O0O,OOO
had been spent in the work. This side of
the case appears to have been entirely lg-
nored in De Lomes official communica-
tons and reports

MONEY rs EASIER.
Gold Is Being P1entifu11y Poured Into
Trade Channels.


The first annual report of Ellis III.
Roberts, treasurer of the United States,
has just been completed. It shows,
among other things, that money is much
easier than it was a year ago. At the
end Of the fiscal year of 1896 the ag-
gregate currency and specie in circula-
ton was $3.50, 49,, 531, while at the
close Of the fiscal twelve months of 1897
this amount increased to 81 Gal, 100, 097,
while during the same period the total
stock of money in circulation and in the
treasury minis increased from $2,34S,-
33S,571 to $1,000, 371 ,978. A gratifying
improvement in the condition of the stock
Of money has occurred in the increased
proportion of gold which has entered into
circulation. The estimated gain of gold
to the country in the fifteen months end
ing Oct. is placed at $112,51l5TO, of
which about $43,00O,000 came from
abroad. The redemption Of national bank
notes during the period covered by the
treasurer's report entailsd an expendi-
ture of $125,061.73, which the national
banks had to pay at the rate of $1.O7
per 81 900 of notes redeemed. A special
deposit of $4,000 of United States 4
per cent. bonds is held in the name of the
comptroller of the currency for the bene-
fit Of the unfortunate Fidelity National
Bank Of Cincinnati.

THE HALF MOI, TOLD.
RICHEST OF ALASKA'S WEALTH
YET UNKNOWN.
A Canadian Surveyor Returns from
the Gold Country with Very Favor
able Information - Sensational AL
Lots of Gold There.

William Ogilvie surveyor Of the Cana
dian department Of the interior, who left
Ottawa for the Yukon country June l9,
1895, and is now returning, reports that
there are one hundred claims on Bonanza
creek capable of yielding from $250,Oo0
to 100000 and thirty claims on Ell Do
RADIO creek that will no doubt yield an ay-
erage Of $1,OO0,0OO each. These two
creeks, he says, form but small percent
age of the rich placers already discovered.
The other streams in the vicinity, though
not quite so rich, will rate very high COM
pared with anything ever found in the
country before. The gold-bearing area
extends up the Yukon from the American
boundary at least 400 miles, and is in
some places 100 miles wide. Over all this
area good indicatio have been found, so
it is safe to assert that the greatest
wealth, if not the richest individual de-
post, is yet to be discovered.

Lynch Three Indians.

. Twenty-Five masked men took the law
into their own hands at the county jail
in Williamsport, N. D. They left the
bodies of three men, who had been &C
cused of murder, swaying in the wind as
a testimonial of the completeness of their
revenge. The men were Paul Holy

Indians, who were under arrest accused
of the murder of six members Of the
Spicer family last winter at Winona, En-
mons County. They were aroused from
slumber at 2 o'clock in the morning, drag
ged from the Jail to a beef windlass that
stood near the jail, and were hanged to
