Olinghouse Mines.

The Wadsworth Dispatch says: 1t
is matter of some surprise to people
at home and abroad to learn that the
average output per week in gold from
the Olnghouse mines is between $500
and $500 and that the figures eau
easily be substantiated. Work is re-
tarded by storms and extreme cold,
weather at present and has been for
some time past, 80 we may reason
ably conclude that With the coming
OF spring the search for gold will in
crease, work will be done on old To-
cations, new locations and finds will
be made and Olinghouse will rank
with the prosperous camps Of Ne
vada. One would not think that %
miners are now at work on the various
claims up in the hills, but neyerthe-
less that number is there, besides the
Cinnamon working placer grounds.
There are about Is Cinnamon at
work. With the weather such as it
is and 25 men at work, in the sp.rng
we look for four times that number to
be employed.

The experiments of Moissan and his
success in producing microscopic crys-
tails of carbon, which, technically at
least, were entitled to be called arti-
fetal diamonds, are we'll known. We
now have, says the Engineering Maya
zine, further contributions 10 the sub
ject of the capitalization OF carbon by
the well-known electro-chemist, DR..
Borchers, who contributes an article
to "The Zeitschrift fur Elektrochemie"
reviewing the past attempts in this de
ments. Moissan worked upon the line
of capitalization of fused carbon un-
der immense pressure, while Borchers
attains the same or similar results by
maintaining carbon rod at the high
temperature of the electric furnace for
considerable time, the surface of the rod
showing distinct evidences of crystal
Iization.
The experiments have been carried
out upon small scale only, and, being
unable to continue the researches, DR..
Borchers gives full account of his
method and apparatus, trusting that
further Investigations may be carried
on by those who have powerful currents
at their disposal and opportunity to
carry out all the conditions which sucL
cess demands.

expectedly delayed in the Senate
the Hawaiian resolution will be
taken up in the House Of Repre-

This is the present understanding
between Chairman Hit of the Com.

Speaker Reed. 1t is not yet certain
whether it will be brought up under
a special order or be called up under
the rules which provides that after

to reach a vote after two days OF

not be made by unanimous consent
a special order will be reported from

Only Two Days of Debate Expected
in the Discussion May
Begin on Monday Belief That
Hawaii Will Have a Majority
of FiftY-The Friends of the
Measure Declare That the Senate
is Certain to Take Favorable
Action.
WASHINGTON, June 3.-The Hawai-
ian annexation resolution will be
brought up in the House either
Monday or Tuesday Of next week
and passed through that body alter
two days discussion, The decision
reached to-day is that the best
course to pursue was to work on the
Hawaiian question under the call of
committees. The plan is to go into
committee Of the whole and then
press the question for two days dis
cussion. This will make the first
test vote on going into committee of
the whole. 1t is believed that an
nexation will have a majority of at
least fifty in the House and perhaps
will reach seventy-fve.
Should the resolution go to the
Senate by Thursday, it will be offer
ed at once, but If not till Friday the
10th, the committee will hold it
until the first Of the following week
There is much recrimination
among the members Of the Senate
Finance Committee, who now, it APP
pears, understood that no action
would be taken at this session. 1t
is understood that Aldrich and ALI
son, Republicans, and Jones and
White discussed the matter aud the
latter pair drew conclusions that
they had an agreement to not press
the question of annexation. Annex
alton Senators still insist that there

be falling off of the opposition
vote. One advocate of annexation
to day said he believed that a week
would be sufficient to dispose Of the
opposition, but the anti-annexation-
lists believe that two weeks debate
will be necessary.
President Mckinley discussed the
question OF Hawaiian annexation
with several Representatives who
were in conference with him to-day.
He told them it was of the utmost
Importance that the two houses Of
Congress take prompt action upon
the resolution. He indicated that he
