HOTEL GOSSIP.

but enjoyable to the most of those who
went out there said Miss G. A McManis
OF Colorado Springs yesterday at the
Kenyon. Miss McManis is a teacher in
the public schools. of considerable prom
inence, and was selected to address the
teachers of government Indian schools,
who held normal school session at Los
Angeles during the educational associa-
tons convention. She gave them a talk
on penmanship ard the best method of
teaching il.
Hotels were crowded" said the lady,
and late corners were crowded five and
six into room, with no reduction of
rates, which were universally 81 night
for lodging. Dining rooms and restaur-
ants were unable TO handle the crowds,
and IL was only after long waits at each
meal that anything could be had to eat.
II the next convention. which necessarily
must occur during the heated term, is
not located in some city where hotels can
handle the big crowds. and where the
climate is not as torrid as that of Los
Angeles. it will not be largely attended
by the teachers"
Merchants are purchasing largely and
trade was never better" said James NJ
Regan of J. V. Farwell d Co. Chicago.
at the Knutsford yesterday. L have been
in the city several days, and my large
sample rooms here in the hotel have been
visited by great many merchants. L
have had big trip and sold some very
big orders in this city. One order L
booked for a leading establishment in
my order book. l find trade everywhere
good, but nowhere is it equal TO this in

II. c. Staver, president of the Staver
Carriage company OF Chicago, who is
visiting Utah in company with John y.
Parish, the Denver mining expert, to look
into some Utah properties, is an old
schoolmate of Charles 5. Fisher, proprie-
tor of the Walker house. He is a manu-
facturer on an extensive scale and en-
ploys upwards of 800 men.
How long the present business activity
that exists throughout the country VIII
continue" said he yesterday, mo one can
predict with certainty; still it is not likely
that conditions can be disturbed for some
time. When England is in trouble 1t
means an era of good times for the United
States.
Just now England has her hands full
with the troubles over the Transvaal.
England is making every preparation for
war; TO the neglect of all other matters.
The Republican Iron & Steel company,
the biggest concern in the United States,
has just contracted with the British gov
eminent to deliver as speedily as possible
100000 tons of iron products. When the
iron industry is booming il sets in motion
the machinery in every line of manufac-
lures
mo country has ever been more exag-
gerated or miSrepreSented than the klon-
dixie and il has been principally due TO
ton companies said George II. Arm
strong yesterday at the Kenyon. Percy
McDougan and are Enghshmen and we
went to Dawson two years ago, and We're
among the first in there after the news of
the gold discoveries reached the outer
world. Even as early as we reached there
we found nearly al the desirable placer
claims taken up, although of course many
have since been discovered and some OF
the newcomers have. done well. The
majority, however, are broke and anX-
ious to get away.
The worst thing to contend with is the
mining laws and officials. The latter are
corrupt and pursue sys-
tematic policy Of blackmail towards pros
myself were both on the miners COM
mittee that endeavored to get a moditica-
ton of the laws and change of officials,
but the committee was not successful.
There has been no read suffering in and
around Dawson. that is TO say, starva-
ton. Wages are now 50 per day and
and broke, they have managed 10 eat and
get along. On the trails and in sections
remote from Dawson there has been
great deal of suffering and even death.
Both Mr. Armstrong and Mr.. McDougall
are young Englishmen of wealth and re-
finement but they were very reticent
about how successful they had been. They
that they were going back again
edged that they had a few nuggets TO
take back to friends in the old country:
but would not acknowledge they had
struck anything rich.
Yes, lynchng is on the increase in the
south. and ii is to be deplored, said
President Powers of the Alabama state
yesterday at the KnutSford,
but so IS the debauchery of white fe-
males by negroes. The intelligent people
Of the south deplore the conditions and
are honest and SINCERE IN their ehorts TO
put a stop to it. Yet if people will stop
and consider the subject they will realize
the difficulty of doing So. a man may be
most sincere in his desire to have the
ynchings stopped and the laws enforced,
and direct all his efforts to such an end.
Yet the moment one of the females OF his
OWN home circle is assaulted by one OF
hose merciless black fiends, he is aroused
comes to the surface. There Is no swift
vengeance he is not anxious and eager TO
nete out to the scoundrel.
Yet lynching grows. The crime OF rape
Ices not cease. Another great trouble Is
ynching for one crime begetS lynching for
another, and the list grows and it is diff

If Tuskeegee and W. II. Council OF Hunts /
