TIE DEAL,
PATRICK CLARK RETURNS, BUT is
NOT READY TO DISCUSS IT.

Patrick Clark returned yesterday from
New York and Montreal, where he has
been negotiating the sale Of a large block
Of stock of the Republic Gold Mining
company to Canadian investors, says the
Spokane Review. When asked if the re-
port wired from Toronto of the sale of
the control of the mine was correct, he
aid
II do not want to talk about this matter
now. 1t is true that l have been in New
York negotiating the sale Of a block of
stock of the Republic for myself n a
few friends. My dealings We're with Mr..
McCuaig and Mr.. Williamson. The deal
is not yet contaminated. / do not know
whom they expect to interest in the mat
ter, and the names of the Toronto and
Montreal gentlemen mentioned this
morning are new TO me in this connec-
ton
Mr.. Clark was not willing to discuss the
price of the stock about to be sold. 1T is
not fair to ask me that" he said. 1T is
a matter Of private business which l am
not in a position to talk about, and I will
not tell you the price. I am sure also that
Mesrs. McCuaig and Williamson will not
mention 1t, so you san see that your To-
ronto informant was guessing"
Mr.. Clark then turned the conversation
to other matters and did not again refer
to the Republic deal He told of some
amusing experiences in New York, where
George Haldorn of Butte, a friend of Mr..
Clark, told the World that the Spokane
man vas a multi-millionaire with an ideal
SILVER King history. The World be-
lieved it and published a sensational
story, which gave Mr.. Haldorn supreme
satisfaction as a most excellent joke, but
brought to Mr.. Clark'S rooms a besieging
battalian of reporters and burdened his
nail with appeals for a hand-out from
al lsorts of people in al parts of the east.
Il was not in Toronto,' said Mr.. Clark.
Il spent my time while east in New York
and Montreal. l found the Republic well
known and of good repute in f%inancia
circles in both cities, and found also the
keenest interest in the Republic camp. !
can say positively that the camp will see
all influx Of eastern capital this summer
that will insure speedy development OF
some promising properties"

WASHINGTON. Aug. l9.-The United
State6 government will erect barracks and
permanently garrison two posts at Homo
lulu. They viii be used as = rendezvous
for troops that may be necessary for the
Philippines after the insurrection In those
islands Is put down. IT IL argued that
even after the Filipsnos are thoroughly

troops stationed throughout the islands.
The climate In the Philippines Is known
to be unhealthy and the regiments sta
toned there will have to be relieved as oc-
casion requires. II they were brought
back to the United States the time and
expense will be considerable. The climate
OF Honolulu and especially where the two
reservations are to be established Is con.
sidcred extremely healthy. 1t Is the pur-
pose OF Secretary Root to transfer the
troops that are TO be stationed at. Homo
lulu to Manila as the regiments at that
point require rest and relaxation from
duty For this purpose several transports
will be especially designated. Honolulu
will be made the base for supplies for
both the troops stationed there and ir
