British Steamer Taken In on Suspicion
of Being Blockade Runner.
Key West, May 25.-The British
steamer Ardanhor came into port this
morning in charge of an ensign from
the auxiliary gunboat Osceola, by
which the vessel was seized yesterday
off Carysfort light, because she was act
ing In suspicious manner, and was
supposed to be trying to enter Havana
harbor.
At 1:15 P. NJ, the steamer was re-
leased by order of Commodore Remey.
There is a good deal Of mystery as to
why she was seized at Carysfort light,
where she was overhauled by the Osce-
ola off the Florida coast, and more
than 100 miles north OF here. Upon
the arrival of the Ardanhor at Key
West, Captain Dana made formal
protest to the British consul. Mr.. Tay
lor, who laid the matter before Com
modore Remey, with the result stated
above. It is thought the affair Il now
closed.

prepared by the treasury will closely
follow the Spanish customs laws in
force in the Philippines. Just what
revenue they produce is not known,
but the assumption is that, inasmuch
as the home government realized from
them last year approximately 50, 000,-
900, the actual amount collected was
$19,000,000. The government will as
sumo control of the revenues as soon as
the principal seaports are in our pos
session, and will control them at least
until congress takes specific action in
the case, or until peace has been de-
cla1ed between the two countries.

OUR AMERICAN POLICY.

The policy of this country regarding foreign
complications seems likely to remain conserva-
tive. The Monroe doctrine, according to the
sustained, but patience and prudence In official
quarters will restrain the exuberance OF public
opinion. The wisest and most prudent course
for the rheumatic and the malarious is to use
Hostetter's Htomach Bitters, which also cures
kidney complaint and dyspepsia.

Not In the memory of the Oldest
wheat trader has there been time.
when the wheat markets the world over
exhibited az much activity and irregu-s
larity as characterized them the last
week. The buying furore that started
in the previous week was continued
with increased force. Sensational ad-
yances were reported everywhere on
Monday and Tuesday. May in Chicago
touched $1.85; in New York 1t was
81.e1; in Duluth $3.50; in Minneap-
oils 81. 80; in Toledo $1.65; in Liver
pool 81. 81, and in Paris e1.64. MAY
at one time was 81 over last year. and
at another S1.15. These were the
highest prices, with one exception
since August, 1869, and that was the
September corner run by B. P. Hutch
inson, in 1888, when the price was put
to 81. In 1877 it advanced to 81. 76A.
Short sellers suffered terrific losses. and
the tension became extreme. The bulge
eliminated Tuesday. and prices de-
clined irregularly, Chicago showing
loss of 55c, New York 47c, Duluth 400.
Minneapolis zoe, Toledo CSC, and Liv-
erpool Sc. The advance has been OF
material benefit to farmers and millers
having wheat to sell. They took adj
vantage of it both here and in Europe.
and the wheat was rushed to market,
as there has seldom been a chance to
sell 1t for such prices for more than
day or two at time. Arrivals at prl-
mary points were 4, 228,22 bushels or
more than double last years. English
farmers deliveries were "a 400 quar-
tiers, an increase Of "a, 900 quarters for
the week, with an advance OF IS per
quarter, the price being 45s, lid, the
highest in over 16 years.
Letter sold over 1000, 00O. bushels
last week, and in five weeks has dis
posed of about 1O,0OO,0O bushels.
How much more he owns no one but
himself knows. His interests In May
have been largely reduced, but he Is SO
largely spread out In other markets,
the wheat being held there in some in
stances on joint account, that no relia-
BILE figures can be made as to his posi-
ton. His interest, however, is the
lightest in a year.

Colon and China.
Washington, May 25.-Much COM
ment and some criticism has been
caused by the delay In forwarding
troops to the Philippines to support
Admiral Dewey. Both the comment
and the criticism had their origin in
the desires of the people that the fruits
of Dewey's victory should not be endan-
gered by any lack of assistance from the
navy or war departments. 1t is known
now that the troops would have been
sent to Manila before this had it been
possible for the war department to
secure transports on the Pacific. The
utmost difficulty Is being experienced
by the department in obtaining such
transports. The coastwise trade On the
Pacific is not large, as compared with
that on the Atlantic, and the majority
of the vessels engaged in the trade are

convention, which meets in Pres

the MINER a world of pleasure to
announce the fact to the people of
Arizona. Mr.. Ellinwood is a gen.

not only will democrats but repub-
licans as well be pleased when they
learn that he is in the field. Al
though young man he stands at
the head of the bar of the territory
and for over four years past held
the Office of United States attorney
for this district. While the ma
jority of the appointees of the last
administration went over to the
single gold standard Mr.. Ellinwood
remained throughout an earnest,
consistent advocate of the free ard
unlimited coinage of silver. He is
a pleasant, energetic gentleman and
should he be elected to congress the
people Of Arizona will have no cause
to complain that their interests are
not well cared for.

Lefever might borrow Anson
Smiths single plank to make his
campaign on. Mr.. Lefever can
have the plank, as Anson Smith
has no monopoly of it, and as he
is true blue on the silver question.
Unlike st. Charles Anson Smith
did not splinter up his plank before
he let go of it, but left it in good
condition for any one who might
desire TO use it.
Mohave County miner., 1898-08-27

Six hundred men have died at
Camp Thomas with fevers and
other complications since its estab-
hshment. This is more men than
was killed by the Spanish since the
outbreak of the war.
