TO COIN SUBSIDIARY SILVER.
Mints at Philadelphia and San Fran
cisco Receive the Orders.

Washington, D. g., March 2l.-
The director of the mint, George E.
Roberts, returned from Philadei-
phia today, where he went to make
arrangements for carrying out the
provisions of the new currency law
regarding the coinage of subsidiary
silver. Orders have been sent to
the United States mints at San
Francisco aud Philadelphia direct
ing them to begin the coinage of
the new small coins as soon as pos
sible, and to continue the work in
definitely. The law recently enacted
provides that the total stock of
rubsidiary silver coins be raised to
sl0O, 100000. The amount now in
circulation and in the treasury is
about $8O,OOO,OOO.
Director Roberts said today that
whatever may be the differing opin-
ions regarding the imitation of the
currency owing to the new banking
law there could be only one mind as
to the need for more fractional cur
rency-that is, silver coins of a
smaller denomination than one dol
lar. He predicted that about two
years would be required to coin the
additional $40, 100000 authorized by
the new law, and that this amount
would answer for some time the
growing demands of trade.

Joplin on Monday S. B. Ladd, at
torney for the Arkansas Construc

against the railroad system, amount
ing to little more than 81, SEQ, 900
He protested against the sale o
the property, on the ground thai
the federal court, which ordered
the foreclosure, had 40 jurisdic
ton and charged that collusioG
and fraud had been practices
against the Arkansas Construction
Company. Mr.. Ladd gave noticD
that the confirmation of the sal,
would be opposed in the fedora
court. This step was taken to pro
tect the claim of the Arkansas Con
struction Company, which built
great part of the road. YESTERDAY
in Kansas City Judges Thayer ant
Philips confirmed the sale of thu
road, denying the Arkansas Con
struction Company even the righ
to file an intervention. Their CLAIM

Mr.. D. L. King, is here to day
from his home. He came in to get
his vote of Miller county. He said
the correspondent here had given
the county to Mr., Chew when he
knew that he had carried it by a
good majority He feels that he
has been badly treated by the cor
respondent from this place in giving
the majority to the wrong man in a
paper that has state circulation.
We de not believe the correspondent
gave the vote to injure Mr., King;
he was misled by some one giving
hlm the wrong information, The
Arkansas Gazette we know will
make proper correction when the
facts are made known. There is no
newspaper who will publish an erro,
neous report if it knows it at the
time.

WIRELESS TELEdRApHY.

The recent wonderful accomplish
ments in wireless telegraphy bring
to mind forcibly the value of cleo
tricity. 1t is probable that much
work will be saved by means of this
subtle fluid. There is no limit to it's
possibilities, Applied to material
objects, it causes them to move as
with life, while without it the hu-
man body cannot be strong and
healthy. The best means of filing
the body with vitality, is by the use
of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters.
Lack of life in the stomach causes
Indigestion, dyspepsia, constipation,
biliousness and malaria. Any of
these symptoms means the Bitters
is needed at once. Just now, when
the seasons are so variable, it is
particularly valuable, and regular
dose will keep the bowels active and
healthy.

Coming events cast their shadows
before. France is so engrossed in
the Paris Exposition and Russia is
so absorbed in completing the Sibe-
ran Railway that there will be no
great European war this year.

it may be looked for, and this APP
prehension is stimulating imigra-
tion to America, where there is no
danger of compulsory military ser
vice." Some 10000 more migrants
had arrived in 1899 than in the pre-
vious year. From the present as
pect, however, it is estimated that
the present year will show an in
crease of from $4,000 to 100000
over the year 1899, From the first
six months of the present fiscal
year, from July ! to Dec. l, 1899,
the total immigration was 131, $40.
