FINANCIAL CRISIS IN INDIA.
IT Is Believed Tint Gold Shipments
Will BE Necessary.

London. Jan l2.-The government has
invited tenders for India bills to the
amount of 100000 pounds, for the dis
charge of bills payable on the 22d. The
stringency in money in India is so great
that it is believed gold shipments will be
necessary Special allotments. of tele-
graphic transfers on Bombay were made
today at l65d per rupee. So great is the
urgency for money in India that the In
dian council is considering plans to in
crease the supply of currency. In order
to facilitate the coinage of silver against
gold notes at the rate of l6d per rupee,
it is said the council will receive on behalf
of the India bankers or merchants in Lon
don gold for deposit in the Bank of En-
gland against which orders or transfers
will enable silver coin to be drawn from
the Indian currency departments.

DISCOVERS A NEW METAL.
Unknown Substance Found in IL Lot
of Pig Iron.

New York. Jan, l3.-The Herald says
that Thomas A. Edison has accidently
discovered what he believes to be new
metal which will do away with the slow
and costly process of making malleab BILE
iron. Exhaustive experiments will be
made and if they are successful it is prom
ised full details will be given to the pub
lie 1t is claimed that after a lot of iron
had been run through a magnetic ore sep
arating mill, pigs" were taken from the
blast furnace as usual to be cooled and
broken up. The lot in question proved
refractory, for the pigs resisted all efforts
of the men with heavy sledges to break
them. The fact was submitted to chemists
and the theory was formed that there
was some hitherto unknown substance in
the iron used and this is believed to be
new metal.

Ter has had conference with President

SUPREME COURT OF IDAHO.
Decision In the KinEsbury Case
From Latah County.

Boise. Idaho, Jan. l2.-The January
term of the supreme court has convened.
A number of opinions in cases taken UNI
der advisement at the last term were
handed down, also decision in the case
brought by S. b. Kingsbury against the
state auditor. In the Kingsbury case
the writ of mtndate was denied. This
was case by which Mr.. Kingsbury
sought to compel the auditor to issue
him a warrant for $500 in payment for
services rendered the state in prosecu-
ton of the case against |. c. Hattabaugh,
ex-treasurer of Latah county, and his
bondsmen.
A decision of much interest was render
ed in the consolidated case of the Home
Savings and Loan Association VS.. Devil
Stevens ct al, from Latah county. In
this case the company, a Minnesota con-
Germ. had been given judgment of fore
closure. The judgment is reversed by
the supreme court, because of violation
of the usury law in the contract made be
tween the parties. The usury arises
through a payment eXacted as a pre-
MUM for precedence" The court says
"building and loan associations can not
collect usury under any guise or name,
or by trick or artifce. Such associations
stand upon the same footing as private
individuals"

uarv | paid dividend of 100000, max
ing the total dividends paid to date $751;
OOO of which $250,O00 was paid since Jan
uary |, 1897. S. M. Wharton, one of the
owners of the mine. said the other day
that another 100000 dividend will be

Must Wait for Money.
Beginning with the year the smelters
have adopted new rule that will hardly
suit mine owners, says Wallace, Idaho,
dispatch. Heretofore they have made
contracts with shippers by which they
could have ore sampled at various sam
ping works and final settlements would
be made on the basis of the samplers as
say. Since January l they have declined
to make any more such contracts, declar-
ing their final settlements would be made
on the mineral in the ore as shown at the
smelter. The result of this would be that
instead of knowing just what the ore was
worth, and being able to draw for the
amount the day it was shipped, the mine
owners can not know the value of car
of concentrates until from four to SIX
weeks after shipment is made.

tains uniform width. 1t is generously
sprinkled with free gold,
Mr.. Jones brings down samples of the
ere and everyone who has seen them says
the rock is precisely the same in char
aeter as is found in the Comet mine at
Belner's Bay. southeastern Alaska. Mr.
Jones said that old timers in the Klon-
dixie had made a similar observation. In
no instance was the quartz discovery made
by men who owned the placer claims and
the locators of the quartz lodges thus ac-
quire a separate and distinct title from
the locators of the placer. The discovery
of this ledge on No. 81, Eldorado, was
made by man who was working the
placer for the owner A shot was put in
and about 80 pounds of ore blasted out.
The greatest excitement prevails and no
man will listen to any suggestion to sell
his claim until further development has
been made
