DIFFERENT KINDS OF CEMENT.
There are several styles of cement made in
Europe and America, the two best known being
the Roscnd ale and the Portland. The former is
cheaper and inferior to the latter. certain
grade of limestone Is selected for Rosendale &C.
ment The stuff is then crushed into moderately
small bits. is burned, then powdered and finally
barreed for the market. No additions to this
cement are made during the process of manu-
facture. In preparing Portland cement. however
great attention is given 10 the composition. III
the proportions OF the ingredients are found to
vary from a fixed standard, more or less clay or
gypsum is added so to make the material
conform thereto. The rock which is chosen for
this purpose is one consisting mainly Of carbon
ate Of lime, but including from 10 to 20 per cent
Of clay, which in turn, should contain certain
prescribed quantities OF silica and alumna.
There should be rather more of the former than
of the latter For a long time the best Portland
cement was manufactured abroad. A great deal
Is still imported. The German article Is noted
for its excellence But the production OF cement

Probably the largest financial transaction that

largest that took place In this country,
was the transfer yesterday by ID. ~ Morgan. the
retiring Treasurer of the United states, OF S'9d.-

Treasurer, who gives receipt for that amount
OF money. bonds and other securities belonging
to the Government Of the United States, and OF
which the Treasurer has custody. The two
thirds Of cent which appears in the receipt
represents q division of interest in a quantity OF
State bonds which have been held for many
years by the Government OF the United States
in trust for certain Indian tribes. The Indians
are entitled to twO-thir1s Of an amount which
happens to be = en- dollars so that the fraction
OF sixty-six AID two-thirds appears. and the
only way to settle it is for Congress to pass

benefit Of the Indians.

WHAT WAR COST SPAIN.

New York, Sept. 2S.-A dispatch to

The case of the Spaniards in Cuba

free of cost has been reconsidered, and
they will be given u free passage, ar
rangements having been made with the
Spanish Transatlantic company to
convey them at the same price as SOL
diers.
Negotiations for repatriation continue
to form weighty problem for the
government. Today the case appears
that with the hospitals available, in
Guiding numerous offers of private hos
pitfalls, there are at the disposal of the
government 10000 beds. From Cuba

HARTMAN is OUT OF THE RACE
FUSION CANDIDATE FOR CON-
GRESS IN MONTANA.
Withdraws In Favor of the Demo-
cratic Nominee to Insure the Elec-
ton of Silver Man.

Helena Mont, Sept. 2S.-Hon. Charles
S. Hartman, nominee of the silver Re-
publicans and Populists for congress,
has withdrawn, and asks that the name
of Hon. A. ]. Campbell, the Democratic
nominee, be placed on those tickets
and supported by all who believe in
the free coinage of silver. The with
drawal of Mr.. Hartman is made in a
long letter addressed to the chairmen
of the state central committees of the
two parties which nominated him.. 1t
reviews at length the course of political
events leading up to the failure of fus-
ion at the time the conventions of the
three parties met at Anaconda, and
concludes with the declaration that
rather than imperil the election of a
silver man to congress and silver can
didateS to the state legislature, he
takes the action that there may be
but one silver ticket in the field. He
offers his services on the stump during
the campaign to Mr.. Campbell and the
Democratic state central committee.

HALF A MILLION IN DUST.
Most of It Belonged to the Alaska
Commercial Company.

San Francisco, Sept 2S.-The Alaska
Commercial company's steamer Bertha
arrived today from st. Michaels with
so passengers, who came down to that
point on the river steamer Anna. The
Bertha brought $3.50, 900 in gold dust for
the company, in addition to the gold
and drafts belonging to the passen-
gers. The total wealth aboard the YES
sci is over s50O,000, though the exact
amount could not be ascertained.
Most of the wealth brough down on
the little steamer was possessed by one
man, F. McQuestion, who is credited
with $3.50, 900. He is the Alaska Com
mercial company's agent. The rest of
the passengers all have small amounts,
but few having more than $4,000.

TERRIFIC EXPLOSION.
Half a Ton of Powder Ignited, Kill
ing Three People.

New Whatcom, Wash, Sept. 2S.-Half
a ton of powder exploded at Linds
road building camp, II miles north OF
here, and killed three people, Gus
Swanson. Mike Gee and a 6-year-old
son of John McCulloch. McCulloch
was fatally injured and Dan Sandstrom
seriously hurt.
Three horses were killed. The cook
house. stable and shops were blown to
pieces. The report was heard 20 miles
away. The powder was stored in the
blacksmith shop and was a mixture
of black and giant powder. The black
powder caught fire from spark
through carelessness. There were a
dozen men close around the shop. The
explosion deafened them and flung all
of them far away from where they
were, but only the three were killed
Charles Buchanan was hitchlng up
his buggy close by. The top OF the
buggy was blown away, and Buchanan
was stunned The camp belonged to a
road contractor, who had 20 men at
work, and it is a mystery how any one
escaped, as the buildings are all de-
molished and the ground torn up in all
directions, while the killed were thrown
long distances.

ALGER INVESTIGATION.
But Four Commissioners Present and
Little Business Done.

Washington, Sept 2S.-Only four
members of the committee appointed to
investigate The conduct of the war were
present at the forenoon session today
and III the absence of replies to the in
terrogatories sent to the secretary of
war and his subordinates, very little
business was transacted. Colonel Den
by was elected vice chairman of the
commission and in the absence of
Chairman Dodge presided over the Ses-
sion today.
The only important matter brought
to the attention of the commission was
a report by General Wilson of the en-
gineer department of the army, of
which he is the chief. No statement
was called for from him, because there
were no charges against this depart
ment, but General Wilson, being a
member of the commission, concluded
that to furnish one would be an ap-
propriate proceeding. The document
was held for disposition by the full
commission and consequently was not
given to the press. Is is a statement
showing the condition of the depart
ment on the first of last April, just be-
fore the declaration of war, as COM
pared with its condition on the 31st of
August last, after the cessation of
hostilities. and it deals especially with
terpedoes anG Notifications. Included
in it is a letter written by General Will
son to his subo.'dinates throughout the
country lust before the beginning of
the war. advising them of the prospect
for hostilities and directing what
course they should pursue as members
of the department.
A few letters were received from
persons Offering to come before the
commission. These were replied to with
