Y HAWAIIAN II CONGRESS-.
D lrIT1sr rFgErr r-l-Ttf EsflflIsll. n
1t Was a Strong Argument in the
Hands of the Anti-Annexa-
utiOnists.H

Honolulu,Jan IS, via San Francisco,
Jan. 25.-One of the most radical bills
ever brought before the Hawaiian leg
islature will be introduced atzthe COM
ing session, which opens on the 10th
of next month. If the bill carries, it
will do away with the contract labor
law, which has been in vogue in this
country for a great many years. From
an inside source. it is learned that all
the American planters will favor the
bill; but it is anticipated that the plant
ers of other nationalities Will make
fight against it. The legislature is
practically in the hands of the Ameri-
cans, and at the present time, there is
no good reason why the bill should not
become a law. The Hawaiian contract
labor law has been a strong argument
in the hands of the anti-anneXation-
lists, and adjustment of the law is ex
pected to aid this country in its fight
for closer political union with the
United States. sai 500 .tr 7-+.--sr-

/ Washington Jan. 24-Secretary Long
of the navy department, was seen this
morning concerning the rumorS that
were afioat in regard to the movements
of ships and said: so far from there
being any foundation for the rumors
yesterday of the trouble at Havana
matters are now in such condition that
our vessels are going to resume their
friendly calls at Cuban ports and go
in and out just as the vessels of other
nations do. The Maine will go in a
day or two on just such a visit. New
er before has the majestyof the United
States been represented by so large
and powerful fleet of warShipS as that
now gathered off the extreme southern
coast of Florida, within direct strik-
ing distance of the island of Cuba.
Whether the ships are called into ac-
ton or not, an examination of the
squadron now engaged ostenSibly in
drill, but really in watching the prog
reSS of events across the narrow chan
mel which separates the dry tortugaS
from Havana, shows that it was not
collected for dress parade purposes.
For a year the navy department has
been preparing this very emergency
and the result is fleet such as never,
been seen before ready for service in.

COMING PARLIAMENT

Will Be Most Momentous One Since
the Times of Palmerston.
London. Jan. 26.-Early in the com
ing month what may prove to be one
of the most momentous parliaments
since the times of Palmerston Will as
semble at St Stephens, and already
members of both houses are arriving
in London and commencing to read up
on the numerous questions that are
likely to come up early in the session.
The game of chess that is now being
played on the European board and the
critical condition of affairs in the east
combine in themselves to make it pos
sible that the coming session may be
fraught with developments that will
add pages of crimson writing to the
history of the British empire The pos
sibility, however, that foreign affairs
will overshadow domestic legislation
has not prevented the government
from formulating an elaborate pro-
gramme. First and foremost there is
the question of county government in
Ireland, legislation on which subject
will be a fitting accompaniment of the
centenary of the Irish rebellion of 179S.
The army is to be materially increased.
There will be an elaborate act giving
proper sy@tem of local government
to London, .hich is now and has
hitherto been in the control of a com
binatiOn of ground landlords who have
resisted every reform of the local ad-
ministration and to the best of their
ability have evaded payment of taxes
1t is also probable that the govern
ment may attempt to grapple with the
matter of old age pensions. although
the special committee which has the
investigation in charge will report that
it can recommend no plan for dealing
with the subject

many kinds of salve,- but some would

my husband would like to try this med

OLD MINES AND NEW WORK
TNGS

Throughout Mohave county are old
and abandoned mining claims which
were worked in the days gone by and
which produced Il vast amount of gold
and silver. Among them we may men
ton the Cerhat, SO, Flores. Cupel, 9.
O. D., McCracken group, Lone Star,
keystone and Prosperity, all of which
have been big producers and are yet
in the graSSrootS. Until about year
ago the Orc Plata was numbered
among the has-beens, but today it is
one of the biggest gold producers IN
Arizona. The mine was practically
abandoned years ago, after having pro
duced over 100000 in gold. A few
years ago ]. W, Gerritt, the present
owner, purchased the property and put
in u, big hoisting plant and pumps. At
ter operating the plant for some time
he leased it to chloriders. who are now
working twenty-five men. A shaft
has been sunk TO a depth of 1876 feet
and through rhis shaft Messrs. Clack
Bros x Poland are working out big
block of ground. Drifts have been run
north distance of 80 feet and south
so feet. on this level, all in ore. The
average value of the ore is over five
ounces gold and thirty ounces silver 40
the ton. although in the north drift
ore running over two hundred ounces
silver and twtnty-four ounces gold has
been found In the floor of the drifts
the ore body is bigger than in the
slopes above. During the month of
December the boys took out $4,000
net from their lease and have $4,000
in sight Owen McNeely is shipping
from So. 1000 to $1,000 monthly from his
individual lease and nearly as much
more from the lease and nearly as
much more from the lease in which is
interested with him George Austin.
The AIcNeely lease is on a separate
ledge from that of Clack Bros. & PO-
land and the ore nets nearly eight
ounces of ore to the ton Letter II
Hampton have taken over $4,000
from their lease and are liable to take
many thousand more. The leSeeS are
