RETIREMENT OF SU1RO.
IS MENTALLY INCAPACITATED.
in Active Business Life-His Prop
erty Interests Are Vast-He Owns
an Eighth Of the Taxable Area of
San Francisco County.

San Francisco, Feb. Ok Mayor
Adol3h Sutro, made world famous through
his construction of the Sutro tunnel of Ne
vada, has been declared mentally incap-
able Of conducting his large business in
terests by the courts. This action was
taken on application of his daughter, Mrs.
DIR. +. Merritt. Mr.. Sutro will therefore
be seen no more in active business life.
The effect of his withdrawal from bus
mess may have on many enterprises with
which he is connected is matter to be
determined by family council and law
years His interests are so vast and di-
versifed that the manner of their dispO-
sition is a matter of great moment. The
greater part of his fortune is in real es-
tate. In San Francisco alone he owns
over 1900 acres of land-about an eighth
of the taxable area of the country. Among
other valuable holdings are the Sutro
electric railroad, Sutro library, and vari-
GUS stacks of gilt-edged bonds. In the
present condition of the real estate mar
ket it is rather difficult to appraise the
value of his local realty, but conserva-
tive estimate places it at little under
four millions. The Sutro baths alone cost
nearly 100000.
Sutro is a native of Germany, and 80
years of age. His career up to the time
he inaugurated the tunnel scheme in the
Carson river valley was comparatively
humble and obscure.

FIBROID TUMOR
Expelled by Lydia e. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound.

MRS. B. A. LOMBARD, Box II, West
dale, Mass. writes: 81 have reason to
think that 1 would not be here now if
it had not been for Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound. It cured me of
a fbroid tumor in my womb.
doctors could donothing forme, and
they could not cure me at the hospital.
I will tell you about it:
az had been in my usual health, but
had worked quite hard. When my
monthly period came on, I flowed very
badly. The doctor gave me medicine,
but it did me no good. He said the
flow must be stopped if possible, and
he must find the cause of my trouble.
upon examination, he found there
was fibroid tumor in my womb, and
gave me treatment without any benefit
whatever. About that time q lady
called on me, and recommended Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound /;
said she owed her life to 1t. 1 said ]
would try it, and did. Soon after the
flow became more natural and regular.
I still continued taking the Compound
for some time. Then the doctor made an
examination again, and found every
thing all right. The tumor had passed
away, and that dull ache was gone"
1t can be truthfully stated that
such result can be accomplished by no
other remedy upon the market, and
forcibly proves the peculiar virtue Of

LAGEST SILK MILL IN U. S.
VIII he Built in New jersey by Ger
man Capital.

Chicago, Feb. "a special TO the Tri-
bune from New York says:
One of the biggest silk manufacturing
houses in Europe, with mills at Ciefeld.
Germany, is to remove to this country,
locating ut Paterson, n. j., and build
what is intended to be the largest silk
mill in the United States The incorpor-
alton papers, filed in Paterson, give the
name of the concern as the Andiger- Meyer
Silk Company. Employment will be Civ
en- to 1900 weavers.
1t is stated by Julius Brander, the pro-
jector of the enterprise, that the scale of
wages of skilled silk workers in the
United States has been lowered in the last
few years so that European manufactur-
ers are forced to come here if they would
retain their business in the American
market.

SUPPOSED DEAD MAN ALIVE.
Property Distributed and Man
Charged With His Murder.

Galena, Kan, Feb. S.-Great excite
ment prevails over the appearance in this
city of Tyler Gaviett, who disappeared
in March last from the Windsor stock
farm, owned by Scion L. Cheney, one of
the most prominent citizens of the county
at the time.
Neighbors took charge of Gaviett's crop
and other property and disposed of it and
circulated the report that Cheney had
murdered him. County Attorney Charles
Stevens, in the absence of Cheney,
searched the place for the body. This
act led to an assault upon Perry Stevens,
brother of the county attorney, by Che
ney, for which a $4,000 damage suit is
now pending.
Upon his arrival here Gaviett imme-
diately secured warrants for the arrest of
County Attorney Stevens and five others,
charging them today with stealing his
property. The warrants will be served
tomorrow. The appearance of Gaviett re-
moved the~3loud from Cheney and leaves
his accusers in bad predicament.

BURNING OF TWO INDIANS.
official Report of the AtrOciOus
Crime in Oklahoma.

Washington, Feb. S.-The attorney gen.
eml sent to the senate yesterday letter
written by Assistant United States At
torney McMecban, giving the results of
his investigation into the recent burning
of two Seminole Indians in Oklahoma by
mob. He says that the sentiment in the
neighborhood of the crime is all with the
mob, and he was informed that it would
not be well for him or any other person
to go into that locality if it was known
that the object was to locate the conspira-
tors.
Mr.. McMechan's letter tells in the main
an old story, but he goves some new de-
tails McGiesey was, he says, the first of
the Indians to move muscle after the
torch was applied and he did not move
until the flesh was beginning to drop
from his limbs and was beginning to
touch his ears.
"He then gave loud whoop and bent
over as far as the chain would allow him,
and sucking in the leaping flames, sank
down and expired without showing any
more signs of pain. Not so with Palmer
Sampson; he did not move until after Nc
Giesey had inhaled the flames. Then he
commenced to kick with both feet, throw
ing burning pieces of wood 25 or 80 feet
away. 1t was with difficulty that they
succeeded in getting him burned"
Mr.. McMechan says that Baptist min
lister named Hiram Holt prayed for the
two Indians before their execution, and
that as he knelt in prayer he held rifle
in his hands.

A Boston party has purchased the Me

matte to l2O tons. The total value was
1926, S04, making total value so far for
1898 of II, 429,2 62. an increase of almost
100 per cent over the same period of 1897.
From present indications it is expected
that South Kootenay will produce over
$l5 100000 in minerals in 1898, as the
monthly totals will be largely increased
as soon as spring opens by the addition
of number of shipping mines on which
development work is being done. The

A rich strike has been made in the Mi

81 per pound. The ore is free milling and
highly oxidized. Superintendent Bishop
says that with hand mortar enough gold
could be pounded out to pay all the run

literally covered with free gold, present
ing a glistening appearance to the naked
eye. The ore is being sacked and stored
awaiting the coming of spring, when a
mill will be erected.
