LONDON TRUTH is SAVAGE.
Paper Regarded at Home rs Cranky, Scores
the United States.

London, March S.-The Truth today
severely criticises Washington over the
Lee incident. After citing the letter of
Edward j. Phelps, then United States
minister to Great Britain, to the mar
quis OF Salisbury in connection with the
Sackville incident, to the effect that the
United States government assumed
that a request for the recall of the
British minister at Washington, Lord
Sackville. was sufficient, believing the
acceptance or retention of n minister
to be a question solely to be determined
with or without the assignment of rea-
sons by the government to which he is
accredited, Truth says:
Spain has now demanded the recall
Of Gen. Lee, and 1t Is officially pub
lished that the President will not take
Gen. Lees recall into consideration.
The matter is a serious one, for now 1t
is Obvious that the government of the
United State does not consider herself
bound by international usage In the
conduct of diplomatic relations with
other countries.
st has distinctly laid down a rule OF
action which it imagines to be binding
on 1t. under such circumstances, and
therefore its refusal to accede to the
request of Spain stultifies 1t in the eyes
of the whole world"

cal structure of this immense interior
and to determine the position mud
characteristics OF the features of tho
gold bearing rock formations from tho
wearing down of which the unusually
rich placer deposits. not only of the
already described districts in American
territory. but also OF those which have
since created SO great an excitement
within Canadian borders were derived
These rock formations which he
designates as the Birch creek. Forty
Mile and Rampant series. are OF i'm
mense thickness. and very old, dating
back beyond the paleozoic era and
resting on fundamental granite or
gneiss. The richer placers are all
found among the smaller gulrhas
heading in mills formed of these rocks
which are very full Of go'd-beating
quartz veins. There are also gold
bearing conglomerates, formed in n
former geologic period by the wearing
down of the rocks along the ancient
sea beach and since consolidated into
hard rock, lifted up and folded. where
abrasion has furnished gold to some of
the placers. and which may prove
themselves to be sources of wealth in
the future.
Mr.. Spurs report is accompanied by
geological maps of the mining district
visited, and contains full discussion
OF the manner In which placer deposits
are formed. He effectually disposes Of
the statement made by the late dlrrc-
tor OF the coast survey, Gen. Dufllcld.
that the placers are of glacial origin
by showing that the region where they
are found in great richness was never
covered by the continental Ice sheet
The paper will undoubtedly prove of
great value In affordlng to those who
may visit the region in the future a
more correct understanding OF the
geological formations prevailing there,
and will be in great demand.
OF each of these papers the geological
survey has about 1900 copies for gen.
eral distribution.

II have kept horseshoe over my door
for years" said a man whom good luck
has never oppressed, "but luck has
never come my way very much, and
had almost begun to lose faith in the
horseshoe. But this morning a friend
Of mine comes along and sees the horse
ihoe over my door.
"HelloP he says. You've got your
horseshoe wrong end up
'Wbat?' says I.
"And he says I've got my horseshoe
wrong end up; I've gotithung with the
point up and the ends down; and II
ought to be hung with the point down
and the ends up. Hung the other way,
the luck runs off.
"And he says this is old as the hills.
lie thought everybody knew that. But
| didn't; I never heard Of it before.
but I've taken my horseshoe down
and hung it with the ends up, and now
I'm waiting."--N. Y. Suns
