"A
HELD W AT JUAuEZ WAITING
FOR A DEQMIT.
the Mexico City Officials Conterd
That They Sent the Papers Lone
Ago. but the 3udreZ Authorities
Dlsoldim any knowledge of
Them.

| One hundred Mormon immigrants
from Utah bound for the colonies in
Chihuahua are neld up in Ell Paso on
account of the customs authorities in
JuareZ.
Some OF them have been here tive
weeks and have no prospects of getting
out for some time yet. 1t seems that
the Juarez officials have lost a docu-
ment sent to them from the City of
Mexico on the 25th of October and
have been unable to find it.
President Wins of the Mormon colo
MES took the precaution over a month
to arrange for the free passage of the
goods and stock of the Mormons but
when they arrived here two weeks age
none of the authorities in Juarez knew
anything about it. The order was sent
from the capital on the 18th but the
Juarez men state that they have not
received it and the immigrants have
to wait here until the matter is ar
ranged.
Under the tariff laws of Mexico the
stock. farm implements and personal
effects of c~olonists. are admitted free
OF duty but an order to this effect has
to be issued from the department at
Mexico City The department contends
that the order was issued last month
but the officials at this end say it has
not reached them.
President WINS returned from Chi
huahua last night where he has been
in h interest of the colonists but
says he can do nothing to get them
through the custom house until the
order comes from Mexico. Mr.. WINS
says a great many others are coming
down this winter and he hopes to get
the customs matters arranged to admit
them without such a long layOyer.
There are f~ifty-three people in the car
that came in last week and they are
yet living cramped up in the car on
the Sierra Madre tracks. The women
and children have had little chance
to change clothing as their goods are
in the custom house. and they are very
uncomfortable and restless.

Edward Dingman Caused Great
CommotiOn in Neugents Sa-
loon Tuesday Evening.
WAS PROMPTLY ARRESTED
Examination Held i'm Justice
Court Friday Aforementioned
Over to Circuit Court.

Arthur Dingman, woodsman,
caused a great commotion in
Thomas Neugent's saloon Tuesday
evening, and those who happened
to be in the place at the time must
have come to the conclusion that
war had broken out in Baraga the
way the bullets whizzed and all hands
lost no time in finding place Of
safety.
Dingman went into the saloon
about clock. He had evidently
been drinking, although it is claimed
that he was not very drunk. He
had been in the place but few
moments, when he walked to the
rear Of the room. placed his back to
the wall, pulled revolver and fred.
The bullet struck behind the bar,
and came uncomfortably close to
Archie Hall, who was standing
near. Dingman then hourished the
revolver again and pulled the
trigger, the second ball entering
the ceiling.
BY this time those in the room
had fled, and Marshal John Cos
grove, who was coming up Main
street, was summoned. When the
marshal entered the room the imam
behind the gun" had his back
turned, and his arms were promptly
grasped, while another man relieved
him of the dangerous weapon.
Dingman showed fight but was soon
subdued, handcuffed and taken to
the county Jail at L'Anse.
A complaint was made against
him for resisting an officer, and ex-
animation in justice court was set
for Friday afternoon.
When brought into court Ding
man waived examination and was
held to the April term of circuit
court fer trial. In default OF fur
nishing bail he was committed to
} Jail.

A Two Billion Country.
From the Boston Journal. !

Some years ago the Hon. Thomas b.
Reed, tainted with the fact that a Repub-
lican Congress, over the House Of which
he presided, had appropriated billion
dollars in two years, replied that this was
a billion-dollar country.
In some points indeed, this has since
come to be -billion-dOlla country.
The year 1899 saw the foreign commerce
of the United States-and this was under
the sitting and whitening" influence Of
a protective tariff, mind you-rise for the
first time above the two-billion-dollar mark.
II reached, in fact, a total of e., 1914, 345,
242 This is a very uncomfortable fact for
our professional free-traders to explain,
and It Is not strange that they have be-
come studiously silent.
In still another way ours is a two-billion-
dollar country. In this month of Februa-
~ the treasury statistics show that the
money in circulation in the United States
has also for the first time risen above the
two billion-dollar mark. On Feb. it was
S2,003, l49, 1856, or just $25.95 for every
one Of our u, 10000 people. On Feb. l,
1899, this per capita circulation was $2j-
~; on Feb. l, 1898, S23 AZ; on Feb. /,
1897, $23.05; on Feb. l, 1896 $22 A. So
the cry Of Mr.. Bryan and his colleagues
that what the country needs is cheap mon
| ey and more of it is met and smo.hered by
the hard fact that the money in actual cir
culation is greater in amount than ever be-
fore, and has been increasing more rapidly
/ than ever.
Nor is this all. Two-thirds of this in
crease has been in gold and its equivalent.
| On July l, 1896, the amount of gold
coin and gold certificates in circul ton was
only $49S, 449, PAP. By July /, 1897, eight
/ months after a gold-stsndard president had
| been elected, and four months after he had
| been inaugurated, the amount Of gold and
! gold certificates in circulation had increased
to $j56, 432, 594 By July /, 1898, this had
increased to 1896, 80, sig; by July l, 1899,
to 1874, 10, 72S On Feb. the total Of
| gold coin and gold certificates in circula-
ton was $S04 $50, 065-a gain of 81 per
cent since the beginning Of the fiscal year
| 1897.
Thus the yellow metal " of the "rob-
Der barons,' the "plutocrats," the mo-
nopolisls," is coming more and more to be
the peoples money. This will be an awk-
ward condition for Mr.. Bryan TO confront
when. next summer, he endeavors to revive
his cheap money" and "more money "
propaganda.

Tn. Greatest Ocean Depths.

The United States steamship Nero has
been making soundings between Manila
and Honolulu in the interest Of the cable
to connect our chief island ports in the Pa
citic with this country. The Nero reports
the deepest ocean soundings that have yet
been recorded. The exact location of this
deep Is not given, but between Guam and
Manila a large area has been discovered
where the soundings showed 5260 fAthonis
(3l, $50 feei), which Is l20 feet less than
six statute miles. In November last the
Nero was reported TO have found depth
of 1900 fAthoms about 500 miles east of
Guam. All measurements of depths and
heights are referred TO sea level, and the
depth now reported is 255S feet farther be-
low the level of the sea than the summit
Of Mount Everest, the highest known part
of the world, is above it. The deepest
sounding hitherto made in the waters be-
tween Guam and LuLon was 1875 feet,
almost directly east of the north end Of
Luzon and not quite half way TO the La
drones, of which Guam is the largest mem
Der.
While our knowledge Of the ocean is still
very incomplete, soundings have increased
in number rapidly within the past so years.
For purposes of navigation il is necessary,
in shallow waters, 70 know depths exactly,
and the soundings along all shores visited
by vessels are numbered by hundreds OF
thousands so that 1t is possible in many
places to map the 100-fAthom line with a
high degree Of accuracy.
Deep-sea soundings are far less numer-
GUS, but probably 5000 have been made
in the past 10 years. The records Of the
British admiralty show over 10000 by
British ships alone in that time. They are
by far the most numerous in the North
| Atlantic and the Southwest Pacific, and
contour lines OF the ocean bottom may be
drawn in those regions with much morS
confidence thanfn any other part of the
seas.
The only depth exceeding 5000 fathom,
! hitherto found is within the Aldrich Deep
in the South Pacific, northeast of New
Zealand and east Of the Kermadecs, WHERE
a sounding of $1,000 feet has been made

The recently circulated story that $50 in
sane soldiers had recently arrived in San
Francisco from the Philippines, and that
200 more we're on the way home, has been
authoritatively and positively denied, The
number of soldiers who have become tenn
porarily insane is very small in proportion
to the whole number of troops. Since the
war with Spain began 1874 regulars, 70
state volunteers and 10 general volunteers
were admitted to the government hospital
for the insane. The great majority OF
them recovered; few died and some are
still in the hospital. The hospital ship
which recently arrived at San francisco
had not one case of insanity,

Col. George B. NJ. Harvey calculates
that the plan Of reorganization of the
Harpers publishing company re-establishes
the house upon a financial basis that is
impregnable, reducing the bonded indebt-
edness one-half and the fixed annual in
terest charges from $500, 700 to $55, 900.
The reorganization appears to be solely in
the Interest of the creditors. A new con-
cern bearing the name of the old one and
prohting by its prestige, but in which, it is
said, the members of the old Harper fam
lily are to have no share, is to be formed,
and the old publishing house will have q

MILLIONS for tn. 81. Louis Celebration

hiiliohs TOT the ~. LOUIS CeiebratiOns
The western members of Congress are
energetically working up sentiment in the
House in favor OF an appropriation
Of 5000 900 to aid in the proposed
celebration in St. Louis in 1908, the
anniversary OF the Louisiana purchase.
The West is making big plans TO observe
that event in fitting manner but the sue
cess of the whole scheme apparently hinges
on the question Of whether or not Congress
will chip in s., 0O0,0 900 for the enterprise.
St. Louis has guaranteed TO raise $40, 000,-
600, half of which is to be provided by sub
scription and the other s., 0O0, 900 by in
creasing the city's bonded debt to that ex-
tent. In order TO do this it is necessary
TO amend the state constitution and the
proposition must be submitted to the
voters at the approaching election. Be
fore this is done, however, the st. Louis
people want the federal government TO APP
propriate S., 000,000 in order to insure the
success of the celebration. Speaker Hen
derson has been asked to appoint a special
committee to consider this matter, so that
| delegations from st, Louis may come on
and argue for the appropriation. II the
| s., 600, 900 is allowed it will make the total
fund for the exhibition Sl5, 900, 900, only a
tTitie less than that which was available
for the Chicago World Fair. The Western.
ers promise that if they start in on the
st. Louis affair it will eclipse anything pre-
viously attempted and will far outshinC
Chicago's 1898 celebration.
