Lansing, July 1.-The state military
board held its first meeting for the re.
organization OF the state troops here
yesterday. Advices will be sent To the
captain OF each company that every
man in his command who SO desires
will be given his honorable discharge
on application. The board is aware OF
the fact that many members of the com.
panies have had all they want of SOL
diering, and it is deemed best to give
them their discharges rather than to
hold them to the full term of enlistment
and have their dissatisfaction work dis.
aster 10 the company.
Every company now in the service
will be given reasonable time in
which to recruit It's ranks to the requi.
site number. When it has been deGni.
tely decided how many of these com.
panies will remain in the service, the
military board will locate the addition.

manager of the Prindle Co., limited, is
indignant because business rivals are
trying to injure him by spreading the
report that he is a Spaniard. Mr..
Prinde has published an open letter
proving conclusively that there is not a
drop of Spanish blood in his veins, and
legal proceedings will follow if his
rivals do not retract the falsehoods they
have spread.
In appearance Mr.. Prindle somewhat
resembles a Spaniard. He was born
in Iowa. He formerly lived at Owosso.

A NILE IN 81 as SEC0NES BY {. N.
MURPHY.
The BicycIist Was in Grave Danger
of Being Dashed to Pieces, But
Was Lifted Out of Danger at
the Critical loment.

The attempt of Charles M. Murphy,
of the Kings County Wheelmen.
Brooklyn, to ride mile on a board
track, paced and drawn along by the
suction of a specially prepared engine
and hooded ear arrangement, that al
| lowed him to ride in vacuum, was
success and Murphy rode the distance
| in 81 40 seconds. The board track
was laid out on the most level piece of
road that the Long Island railroad has
and everything was doue TO make the
affair successful. The engine started
at a good lively clip and by the time
400 yards had been iraversed was go

pacemaker and struck the rubber
bumper under the ear that had been
placed there 10 protect him. Each

feet and almost TO the back of the hood
As he neared the end of the ride he
spurted up close 10 the bumper. This
was done so that two strong men, who
stood handy al the time, could grab
him by the arms and lift him to safety,
for they feared he'd not be able to
stand the swash of the wind il he drop
ed back out of the protection of the
hood. This is all that saved Murphy's
life, for he was all out when he crossed
the line and he immediately apsed in
to Inconsistencies, from which he did
not recover for five minutes. When
asked, while in his semi dazed con-
dition, why he had fallen back so
many times, he said he did 1T because
the boards of the track threatened to
fly up and hit him in the face. This
shows the mental strain he was under

WASHINGTON, May 6-The Department
of State has been informed by our minister
at La Paz, Bolivia. under date of March 2s,
1899. that on March ! Colonel Pando sent
from his army at Sicasica 10 men, COM
manded by Arturo Eguino. TO Ayopaya,
there TO confer with Mr.. Orellama as toohe
best means for simultaneously attacking
Cochabomba. On arriving at the town of
Mohoza. Equine demanded loan of 200
bolivars from the priest of the town and 100
bolivars from the mayor. These demands
being refused. the priest and mayor were
imprisoned. Meanwhile, however, the priest

and in spite of all measures taken to pacify
them the arms of the soldiers were taken
away. the men subjected TO revolving treat

AMERICAN COMBINES,
Lord RcvclstrOke's View Of the Fast
Spreading Trust Craze.

ICopyright, 1899. by the Associated Press.l
LONDON, May 1.-THE correspondent of
the Associated Press has had an interview
with Lord Revelstoke on the subject of the
latter's visit TO America, from which he
has just returned. Referring TO the present
rush TO form trusts and syndicates in Amer
lea, Lord Revelstoke, VINO is a director of
the Bank of England and a member of the
banking house of Barring Bros. a. Co, linn
tied, said: These combines appear TO be
of immense advantage. Wildcat schemes
will undoubtedly be formulated from time
to time, but great organizations of indus
try in America have, in my opinion. in most
cases resulted in undoubted economy of la
Dor and expense of management, and have
been beneficial in financial and other results
Englishmen hardly yet appreciate the force
and potentiality of the present movement,
but there will soon be a revulsion of public
opinion in favor OF these combinations
America is going forward by leaps and
bounds, and will make things extremely un-
comfortable for British industry IL we Of
England do not recognize more fully that
vast capital enterprise. as opposed to more
limited individual venture, can only end in
favor of the former, and that Is where Amer
lea is now getting her pull. The great COP.
per combine has put all other speculative
interests into the shade. The railroad-share
market is most apathetic, and the open ac-
counts i'm Yankees i'm London have been
reduced TO the minimum But this Is only q
temporary phase. Another six months will
see great change" Lord Revelstoke con-
tinued the interview by saying that "a visit
to America Is an education in Itself"

SKAGUAY. Alaska, May 2. via Union
Bay, Il. c., May 6-An important gold
strike has just been. made within five miles
of Skaguay on Monnie creek. just across the
bay from Sksguay. Major John Stanley
and a party of five got a tip from pros
pector and yesterday morning they went
over and explored the creek for nine miles,
going nearly to the summit. Owing TO deep
snow they failed TO reach the top. They
found good coloTs in the gravel two feet
from the surface. They staked every claim
and divided the twenty-six acres among the
six. On their return the news spread like
wildfre and a perfect stampede ensued.
Every available small-stream row boat
was pressed into service to take stampeders
across. Over 200 crossed over last night
and as many more went over to-day.
The first accident the White Pass &
Yukon Railroad occurred last evening. A
passenger car on the up train was derailed.
1t turned over. but IL was caught by large
bowlder and saved from going down a preci-
pice 1,O00 feet. There were about ten pas
sengers in the car but none sustained any
serious injuries.
