the danger of the situation here. Sew
eral days ago Provost Marshal Hughes
appointed Domingo Pacheco, a Span
lard, as administrator of the rich estate
of the leper hospital, a public institu-
ton with a self-sustaining endowment.
The next day placards in Tagallo were
posted, calling upon Filipinos to arrest
Paeheco, fatten him, and when he had
grown fat he should be skinned and his
flesh fed to dogs. Pacheco's offense
was collecting rents for the support of
lepers. His life is safe, but this Incl
dent shows the disposition of some of
the native party.
Aguinaldo's people are not respon-
sible for this, for he controls only a
small faction. The sickness among
the American troops continues, but the
percentage of deaths is decreasing.
Most strenuous efforts are being made
to improve the sanitary condition of
the city. Smallpox is now entirely un-
der control. There were no new cases
this week. All five men in the pest
house will probably recover.
The First California has established
special sick quarters at Ermita. where
taken Tor treatment. Neither the Cali
fornia troops nor the Astor Battery
have any men alarmingly i'll In those
quarters or the division hospital. al
though both organizations have. large
sick lists. Daniel Pryibil of the Astor
Battery died of dysentery Wednesday
Most Of the Americans have concluded
that they are booked for an indefinite
stay and are making themselves as
comfortable as conditions permit.
Many officers have their wives here
and more have, been sent for. The
great need at the present time Is more
women nurses for the boys In the hos
pital. Women can give the sympathy
that many homesick lad needs to
enable him to regain his strength. The
complaint Of the irregularity of mails
from home continues. Americans not
unreasonably hold the opinion that the
Government should get mails here
more frequently and at regular in
tervalS.

character, it being the intention of the
officials not to permit the Spanish
Commissioners to haggle and procras-
tinate as they have been doing.
/ was informed to-day by a high Of
fetal of the administration that the
Spanish Commissioners are making
every effort to secure the assumption
of the Cuban debt by the American
Government in exchange for the island,
or its guarantee in some way when the
island is given its independence.
The truth of the matter is" said an
official, that Spaih wants us to buy
Cuba. After conQuering her she wants
the fruits of the victory. She will not
get them. The Cuban debt will not be
assumed by this Government in any
way, and Spain has been told So"
What is true of the Cuban debt is
also true of the Philippine debt. In
the first place, Spain objects to the
cession of any territory in the Philip
pines to the United States, and she be-
lieves that under the terms of the pro-
tocol this Government should withdraw
upon the signing of the treaty of peace.
Such a proposition has not been con-
sidered for moment by the American
representatives, who have submitted
their demand for the cession of the ISL
and of Luzon to the United States.

HOW MADRID VIEWS
THE PROCEEDINGS

MADRID, Oct. 15.-The semi official
Correspondence attaches much impor-
tance to yesterdays meeting of the
peace commissions. 1t says 1t believes
that besides discussing the Cuban debt
and the evacuation of Cuba, the Phil
ippine question was under discussion.
which this paper claims to regard as
incredible, as 'all unpreiudiced people
must think that, after the signature of
the protocol, the rights and sovereignty
of Spain would be unquestioned'
Continuing, the Correspondence
says: 1.-The Americans are uncompro-
missing and disposed to only yield on
points of unimportant detail. They
are not disposed to agree to arbitra-
ton, while Spain is willing to accept
Russia or Germany. The public is
anxious, but we cannot Immediately re-
assure it, the telegraph not being, un-
der the present circumstances, the best
means Of information.

NOT WILLING TO RULE WHILE
HIS MOTHER LIVES.
Weighty Reasons Concerning Pos
Sible Complications With France
Induce the Queen to Retain
Her Crown.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

NEW YORK, Oct. 15.-The Mail and
Express prints the following special
cable from London: Apparently we'll
founded reports of grave Importance
with regard to Queen Victoria have
reached me The death of the Queen
Of Denmark following so closely on the
assassination of the Empress of Aus
tria had a very depressing effect upon
her Majesty. The fact that it was
thought necessary to take more rigor-
Gus precautions against possible an
archist plots, as cabled to you two
weeks ago, has also greatly distressed
her. The effect has been cumulative.
The result of all this, so my infor-
nation is, was that the Queen sent for
the Prince of Wales and again told him
of her desire to yield the throne to him.
She is said to have recounted all the
reasons which urged her to this step
with great force.
His Highness, however, was not con-
vinced. In the first place, he assured
his mother that he took as much pride
in the great length of her reign as any
other Of her subjects, and that all his
wishes were against ascending the
throne during his mothers lifetime
Secondly, and what was of far greater
Importance, he pointed out to the
Queen the serious state of affairs in
France and the possibilities that the
Fashoda incident might at any time
cause a break in that country's rela-
tions with England.
For Great Britain to change rulers
now, especially when it is known the
Queens intense desire for peace has
been one of the strongest factors in
avoiding hostilities on more than one
occasion ia recent wears. might bring
On war with France which would other
wise be avoided. Reluctantly the
Queen yielded for a time. She is still
said to be seriously contemplating re-
newal of the argument.
Yesterdays and to-day's develop
ments in Paris, however, add such
strength to the Princes position that
1t is probable Queen Victoria will give
up her plan.

MANILA, Oct. 15.-All things here
are waiting upon the result of the
Paris conference. Aguinaldo and his
advisers continue quietly at Malolos,
although there has been some idle talk
among the Filipino soldiers about the
purpose Of the insurgent leaders to at
tack Americans. American officials
know perfectly well that the rebels are
no more desirous of committing an
overt act than Major General Otis is to
precipitate trouble. If a clash comes
before the Peace Commission concludes

An effort will be made soon to hav,
a stage run to Nelson three times Z
week from Desert Springs. to carry
mail, express and passengers. AS il
/ is now, the mail comes to Stateline, j.
] carried TO Deer Lodge, and then comes
( over here in haphazard way. A small
bonus viii be given to the parties who
! contemplate putting on the line.
/ Mr.. 3. l. Kimball came in Thursday
from Salt Lake and is busy getting
things ready for the erection of the
stamp mill. The power for the saw
mill is on the ground, and the balance
of the machinery viii be here in about
week with part of the stamp mill.
Dan Mcleod will go to Salt Lake
about the 1st of the month with ship
ment of Charley Ross ore. The new
whim is working now; the shaft is
cleaned out and retimbered, and ore
is being hoisted. A recent assay of
3,217 ounces silver and $40 ounces gold,
which is a
TOTAL VALUE OF $1S,566SO.
The piece assayed was an ordinary
sample.
Mr.. Mcleod will stay in the city a
few days. Mrs. Mcleod will accom-
pany him.
A weII-defined rumor is going the
rounds here that the Short Line will
be running to Desert Springs by July f.
1t is said that all arrangements are
made and that the laying of rails will
commence at no distant day. The old
grade built by the Union Pacific a
few wears ago will be used. Nelson
will then be only Il miles from the
terminus and if the road goes beyond
to Panaca, it Will only be distant from
Nelson ten miles.
A newspaper is among the early pos
sibilities of Nelson. The editor and
outfit are expected here about the
middle of May.
Brooks Nelson, a son of Dr. Nelson.
came in this week with Bert Kimball.
He expects to stay here and grow up
with the country. Brooks is a Boston
boy and is getting his first out-of-town
experience in a new mining camp. He
is made of the right stuff, though, and
in month or so will bear all the ear
marks of typical westerner.
Harry Wann and Joe Falcon, two
Park City boys, have been here a week,
working on the Comstock. They are
pleased with the country and are will
ing to cast their lot here.
Deer Lodge and Stateline are holding
their own and are thriving, as they
are bound to do with their many good
properties. A new saloon has been
put in recently at Deer Lodge.
There are three separate and distinct
camps here-Nelson, Deer Lodge and
Stateline-but many people on the out
side have an idea that all this country
is Stateline, or a part of that camp.
Nelson is nine miles from Stateline,
and no more a part of it than Park
City is a part of Alta, or Eureka a
suburb of Silver City Nelson is in
Nevada and Stateline in Utah. Each
is able to paddle its own canoe, and
needs no booming from the work and
the mines of the other. A few people
are persistent in their efforts to have
people believe that this country is part
of our sister camp. but their efforts

rotary of the Sacramento. has returned
from an inspection OF the mine, which,
he states, is looking exceedingly well,
with mountains of good ore in sight,
while the mill is working most salts
factorily.
According to Mr.. McConaughy, rapid
progress is being made in the driving
of the mill or main working tunnel,
which is being driven to connect the
plant with the lower vein and ultimate
ly with the upper workings OF the prop
erty, it being the intention to convey
all the ore from the mine through this
tunnel to the mill for treatment.
The tunnel is now in a distance OF
243 feet, and within so feet more it is
expected that it will cut magnificent
body of highly oxidized ore, which. as
disclosed by a Wine from the tunnel
and workings ON the middle Vein show
ed gold values ranging from S14 TO so
to the ton.
Under the direction of Superintend-
ent Flynn, rapid work has been done
in the driving of this tunnel in hard
lime and Mr.. McCOnaughy says that he
has pushed it into the hill a distance of
107 feet with AZ shifts, which is a record
for rapid work that has never been ex-
celled in the camp
