William Jennings Bryan is a candidate for the
Presidency Of the United States on three sep
arate tickets-Democratic, Populist and Silver
Republican-and yet he has so little respect for
the intelligence of the voters of the country
that he told them on Thursday, in a speech be-
fore the National Association of Democratic
Clubs, that the only trust that any Republican
in this country ses~S to know about is the Ice
Trust and the Republicans don't know much
about that for If they did they would know
that every stakeholder is a Republican" The
president and organizer of the National Asso-
citation of Democratic Clubs has not yet found
it convenient to appear at the present conven-
ton in Indianapolis. but if he had been presiding
over the gathering Mr.. Bryan's speech might
have amused him. The following partial list
of stockholders, with the amounts Of their hold
ings. is taken from his newspaper. THE New

The chairman of the Democratic State Com
mittee in Maryland has his days filed with trials
and troubles In trying to wiring subscriptions
to the party campaign fund from the hostile
business and commercial world of Baltimore
Mr.. Vandiver addressed an appeal the other
day to former Democratic contributor who
had been dead ten years According to 1.-THE
Baltimore American" he got this reply:
Dear Sir: Returning you herewith yours of the
9th, addressed to our senior, who has been dead
ten years, we assure you that If living he would
never make a contribution to your campaign fund
We are quite Well satisfied that, although a con
sistent Democrat, never having voted any other
ticket during his lifetime he would not contrbute
toward the election Of such crank or PopuIist
Bryan.
Our views are that bigger demagogue ever
existed In this country, and nothing could be more
detrimental to the interests of this land than the
election of man who hObnobs with such Anar-
chists as Atgeld Tillman and others OF the stripe
1t is needless to add that with sentiment in
Maryland expressing itself with such unmis-
taxable emphasis Mr. Vandiver's confidence has
been sadly shaken in the capacity of the Bryan

Col. Burton Says lie is ShCrt
Over $4,000 in His
Cuban Accounts.
RESULT OF INVESTIGATION
Nicely Went to New York and Ig-
nOred kilograms Asking Him
to Return to Cuba.

New York, May 22 Charles f. w.
Nicely, the former chief and financial
agent OF the postoflice department at
Havana was arrested by the United
States marshal on warrant in
civil suit by the United States
charging him with the wrongful
conversion of $i5, 300.
The prisoner was arraigned be-
fore Judge Lacombe, where his coun-
sci made application for the reduc-
tion of $40, 900 bail, but it was de-
MED. Nicely was then taken to the
Ludlow street Jail The order of
arrest was based on an affidavit of
Col. George II. Burton inspector
general of the United States army,
stationed in Cuba.
IRREGULARITIES WERE FOUND.
In his affidavit Col. Burton states
that on April oath he was ordered by
Maj, Gen. Wood to examine accounts
and vouchers in the department of
posts in Cuba, passed upon and
audited by the assistant auditor
from the inception Of his office.
Col. Burton. according to the
affidavit, examined the accounts and
found irregularities that made it nee
essary for him to visit Neely S Office
to examine his accounts. After
Neely learned his accounts were TO
be examined he left Havana on the
steamship Mexico.
Col. Burton further alleges that
he learned from +. G.. Rathbone,
director Of posts in Cuba, that
Neely had gone to New York 4
cable dispatch was sent to Neoly TO
return, but he paid no attention to
it. Concluding, Col. Burton says:
"My investigation demonstrated
that Charles I. W, Neely, as chief
Of the bureau financial, has received
the sum of Sl22, $50. 50, of which he
has deposited with the treasurer of
Cuba the sum of 377 81, and that
the balance, amounting to the sum
of $4J, ,315. %, or any part thereof,
cannot be found and that said sum
remains entirely unaccounted for, ;

TRAINS MUST STOP.
Railroad Commissioners Osborn
Issues q New Rule.

Railroad Commissioner Osborn
has issued circular to the general
managers and superintendents of
the railroads OF Michigan, calling at
tention to the statute requiring
trains to be brought to full stop
before crossing the track Of other
railroads where such crossings are
not provided with approved inter-
locking appliances. This law, it is
asserted, is not being observed in
many instances. In order to secure
the safety of the public the commits
sioner orders that the following rule
be observed:
"At all main track crossings not
provided with interlockers, the sig
nails or gates governing the use of
same shall not at all times be kept
in neutral position not indicating
the right of way for engines or
trains to cross until such engines or
trains shall have been brought to Il
full stop, and the signal men at such
crossings must know that trains
have been brought to full stop be-
fore Setting signals or gates for
them to pass

STAMP BOOKS ON SALE.
First Consignment Received by
the Postmaster Tuesday.

Postmaster Williams received his
first consignment of the new stamp
books issued by the government,
Tuesday, and now has them on sale
at the postotfice. The books are
nearly all of oiie size but contain
different amounts of stamps. They
make convenient package for the
vest pocket or pocket book and be.
tween the stamps are small sheets
OF paratihe paper to keep them
from sticking together when warm.
The books containing twelve >
cent stamps sell for 25c; those with
twenty.four 2-ceat stamps are 40c,
and those with forty-eight stamps
are 97c. 1t is quite likely that these
books will become popular and will
prove a great convenience to the
department.

Cleveland Firm Which Pur-
chased the Ropes Property
Has a Bonanza.
PAID BUT $4,000 FOR 1T.
1t is Figured That They Have
Already About $50, 900 worth
of Gold i'm Sight.

An Ishpeming dispatch says:
Corrigan, Mckinney & Co. of Cleve-
land, never did better stroke Of
business than when they acquired
possession of the Ropes gold mine
for the sum of $l2, 800. To date, the
gold redeemed has been taken from
the stamp mill and the apparatus
formerly in use there. Old electro
plates have been particularly erich
in the precious metal. When the
final clean up is made it is figured
that at least $50 worth of gold
will have been recovered without
touching ton of the tailings, from
which it is estimated that an addi-
tional $4,000 will be recovered.
Already two tons of electro plates
have been shipped to Cleveland for
treatment and more will follow. They
are deemed so valuable that they are
billed by express. Enough gold to
make brick worth 81 800 has been
recovered with the crude appliances
available there. 1t is said that the
developments at the stamp mill are
a surprise to the new owners of the
mine. Certain it is that they are a
revelation to all lshpeming people,
not one of whom ever dreamed OF
the riches lying scattered about at
the old Ropes plant.
Corrigan, Mckinney & Co. are now
preparing number Of large vats
for the treatment OF the Old mill
tailings. The cyanide process will
be employed to win the gold. 1t
will be taken up in solution and pre-
cipitated. 1t is estimated that
eighty-tive per cent of the gold can
be recovered. The tailings assay
about - 10 the ton, which will allow
a margin of about 81 a ton over the
cost of treatment.

THREE MEN INJURED
While Tearing Down the Re-
naming Portion of the Old
Ore Dock.

Three men working with bridge
crew for the d., y. S. & A. road,
were severely injured in this
village Friday afternoon, and it is
indeed wonderful that they were
not killed.
The crew came down from Mes
toria in the morning, and COM
menced the work of tearing down
the remaining portion of the old
ore dock, near the depot, which
escaped destruction by the fire
four years ago the 9th of this
month. John Bloom, of Marquette,
David Welsh, of Superior, and
Harry Wellington, of Chicago, the
three men injured, were at the time
of the accident on top of the trestle,
and by means of ropes were at
tempting to lower piece OF heavy
timber, when without warning, a
number OF the timbers gave way,
precipitating the men to the ground.
Wellington's left leg was broken,
but the other two men escaped
with few bruises.
Medical assistance was procured
and the injured men made as
comfortable as possible. The ac-
cident was indeed bad, but the me n
copsider themselves fortunate that
their injuries were no worse.

Twenty cartridges, held by their
bases in clips, slide through the
breech of the gun, and these may be
fired in one continuous stream.
Twenty consecutive shots can be
fired by 10 pulls of the trigger, or
all 20 may be fired with lightning
