Regarding the recent ruling of the Interior Department and the General Land Office concerning the amount Of work required on each mining claim before patent would issne, and the date when such order goes into effect, Con- missioner Hermann states that all claims upon which work was done be. fore December 18th, '97, will be ap- proved. He also states that 1t will sui flee if, in application for pntent for 2 group of claims, work or improvements aggregatiug in value $5O0 for each claim can be shown to have been put upon the group us an entirety. Were $750 expended upon one location and S250 on another, jointly owned with the first, both would pass. Mining X Scientific Press.

lion cuts very little figure in the ques- tion, becanse the bullion on the market constitutes but small fraction of the total stock. Whether that bullion be rated at 57 cents on ounce or $1 20 makes no practical difference. It is simply Q question of whether VIC can absorb and use the surplus---the quanti- ty left after the wants of other nations have been supplied If we can do this, every other nation and individual wanting silver must psy us much for it as it is woith at our mint, and thus help sustain our ratio, The idrs that we must take all the silver in the world is absurd. Every nation uses large quantities of silver and will continue to do 30. The only difference is that demand to take the surplus at the ratio of l5i UT l6. Consequently there is Q steady scramble on the part of the owners to sell. As silver is an im- perishsblc commodity which can be and is carried over indefinitely, the tendency of even small surplus is to force the price lower and lower. While. as before stated, with our mint open and 75,000, 000 of American people putting forth sn unceesing and increas
 ing demand for 1t, there Is scarcely s doubt that the market price would fol low our coinage ratio.

THE RATIO 16 TO 1.

In his recent article in the New York Journal, Mir. Bryan sets out with his usual clearness and force the principal reasons why the ratio of 16 to l should be adheared to, says the Binetallist. In view of the fact that the great bulk of the silver coin in the world. some Si,000, ,000, ,000, IS struck at ratios run ming from 14 to Is, tho most of it at 15 and 15i, there can bs no doubt that l6 to is the legal ratio for us to adopt. It places the value of silver sufficiently low to prevent the melting down and recoining at our mint of any considerable amount of foreign com. and at the same time it is near enough to the standard European ratio of 15, to preserve substantial harmony.
 There is, as he intimates, a great question of equity involved in the maintenance of this ratio. That was the ratio which existed from 1884 to 1875 and it exists now.

The BELT makes no mistakes. When the first announcement to organize @ miners convention was made we stated that it was a political job, aud the Me Cord administration papers jumped on us for the assertion. "Time makes all things equal" and when the date ar rived which was March lst, that was fixed for the converting of prominent mining representatives from every county in the territory, only bakers dozen was iu attendance, composed of politicians and lawyers Gall of whom have political irons in the fire) to boos, the mining interests of the territory. There were no representatives present from the Copper Queen of Bis6ee, th, Arizona and Detroit companies, oi Clifton and Morenci. the United Verde, of Jerome, the Old Dominion and Uni. ted Globe, of Globe, the Congress, tn. Fortuna, the Commonwealth, the King of Arizous and other prominent mining companies of Arizona.

fore the senate did not prove success
full Friday, but after being in session
from 10 o'clock in the morning until
after half-past 10 o'clock in the eve

which vote was to be taken Satur-
day. 1t was day Of speechmaking in
the senate. OF all those who gave
their views as to what should be done,
two speeches stand out. These were
by Senators Daniel and Spooner.
Daniel made strong appeal in be.
half of the right and justice and safety
Of the recognition OF the Cuban re-
public and bitterly arraisned the
policy pursued both by Mckinley and
his predecessor, to which he charged
the responsibility for the crisis which
is now upon the country.
Spooner's speech was a strong argu-
ment against recognition, every point
that could possibly be raised against
such procedure being ably and force
fully put.

federate and Veteran unions to give q
joint reception in his honor. 1t was
proposed to hold this reception in the
rotunda of the capitol, the papers of
the city and members of both parties
endorsing the plan. The basis of his
refusal was his claim that he did not
deserve such demonstration and pre-
ferred to serve his country, doing his
duty without any ostentatious display

In Expressing Opinion OF Presidont Me-
Kinley's War Message.
The afternoon newspapers Of Lon
don differed in their estimates of Pres
ident McKinley's message to congress
on the Cuban question.
The Pail Mall Gazette regards it as
strong, but temperate. The St.James
Gazette complains that the message
leaves everything in state Of uncer-
tainty, but says:
president Mckinley and congress
may we'll hesitate to accept the really
serious responsibility OF committing
the United States to the recognition
OF bands of brigands as govern
ment."
The Globe expresses the opinion
that ut is a message Of abdication,"
adding, "while the situation in Cuba
is eminently unsatisfactory, it is a
question whether American interior
ence on the lines suggested is likely to
improve matters
The Westminster Gazette thinks the
presidents message has made out an
excellent case for the intervention OF
the United States"

Inquiry at the state department dis
closes the fact that the United States
has no representatives In Cuba upon
whom II can depend for official infor-
nation In regard to the progress Of
events on that island, and that IL will
be compelled to rely, until other ar
engagements are made, upon the repre-.
sentatives Of the Spanish government
for information in that line.
According to an official at the state
department, the British consular OFF,
GERS in Cuba are expected only to care
for the archives and property Of the
United States consulates turned over
to them on the departure Of the Amer
loon representatives Saturday, and to
look after the interests of the Ameri-
cans still on the island who may apply
to them for protection or redress.
1t is said to be no part OF their duty
to keep the United States state de-

other developments in Cuba, and that
the department will not call upon
them for any special service or infor-
nation Unless it becomes absolutely
necessary by stress OF circumstances.
