LONDON, Sept. 1.-The greatest interest
centres in the matter of Great Britain 5
reply to the Russian-American proposal for
the withdrawal Of the allied troops from
the Chinese capital. It may be some time,
however. before Lord Salisbury presents
his answer to that proposition. The Rus
sian Embassy has submitted to the Brit
ish Foreign Office the proposal of the Cars
Government, that the international military
forces be recalled from Pekin, but the Off
cfaIs here are naturally reticent regarding
the matter.
The Central News says, however, that
after persistent enquiries in official circles,
1t has been given TO understand that, until
the powers receive some direct assurance
from the Chinese Government, England is
not prepared TO withdraw her soldiers from
Pekin or any point in the Empire.
1t is believed that this viii be Lord SAL
isbury's official answer TO the Russian
American proposal.
A despatch received from Rome today

COLOGNE. Sept. 1.-The Berlin CORE
spondent of the Gazette" whose utter
ances are usually inspired, writes that il
is unfair 10 contend that the concert of the
powers in China has been broken. The
proposal of the Russian Government is now
receiving the consideration of the powers,
while negotiations are proceeding in a
friendly snirit.
1t viii be the task OF diplomacy to ad-
just differences. The opinion in Berlin the
writer says, is that conditions are favor

Treasury officials Say No Govern
1iaeut Money Was Lost.

Treasury officials laugh at the story that
sl00, Geo, intended to pay the soldiers in
Manila, was stolen by highwaymen in the
recent hoId-up Of the Union Pacific over
land train in Wyoming. No Government
money of any sort was on the train, the
officials here say, and Of course none could
have been stolen.
The reference TO money intended FOR the
soldiers is classed as absurd. All the paw
funds for Manila are shipped from the
Subtreasury at San Francisco. Such a
thing as sending big sums across the Con
tirAnt for that purpose is unheard Of

Jack Rane is minus finger nail as a result of experimenting with patent ed and slightly abbreviated cam-stick.
 John George, a Slovenian laborer in the Ready Bullion mine, narrowly es- capped death at noon on the 2oth inst, by stepping in front of a descending cage in the inclined shaft.
 Never was group more happy in this wide world of care than congregated at the home of Mir. and Mrs. Swift Thurs day evening, the 18th inst, by special invitation. The evening and the early hours of night sped rapidly while the party, composed mostly of joyous youth, indulged in social games and dancing. The roseate of health on maiden's cheeks was made still more radiant by merry movements; and the men folks declared that the millennium had dawned on Douglas Island. Re- treatments, both dainty and delicious, were served at F o'clock; and 1t was surprising to see how some little mouths could vie with the larger ones in waging a war of extermination upon certain delicacies Those present were MT. and Mrs. Jas Morris, Mir. and Mrs. Thomas Clevenger, Miss Adelle Sand man, the Misses Donaghey, the Misses Bonino, Miss M. MacAvoy and Miss Anna Mccormick. With the preced ing ladies, the following gentlemen friendly associated: R. J. Willis, Wm. E. Davis, Jas, Kirwan, Wm. Bacon, F. s. Shell, Jacl, Rane, Homer Douaghey, Sidney Hoenuinghaus, George Swift and John McNeiI. Many children were also in attcndancc, including tidy, tod ding tots and those of the grown up type. MEXICAN.

ed it would require 500 or 600 men. The reason that more progress is not made is because the claim owners lack the capital to work their properties as they should. If company could be formed to construct a bed rock Hume to carry the water the creek claims could be worked rapidly and well and afterwards, the benches. The country is very rough and the bed rock is deep, running from 9 to 50 feet"
 Mir. Danforth owns bench claim near discovery and was compelled to stop work because of a shortage of water and the adjoining claim owners refused to allow him to dump on their property.
 Mr. Danforth has based his faith in this district on his own observations and anyone who knows the man will give credence to his statements.
 The Porcupine district will improve in importance as the years pass and capitalists are missing grand oppor- tunity when they pass it by.
