DEPOSED SOVEREIGN OF HAWAII
CHEERED BY UNCLE SANS SOLDIERS

Soldiers Of the regular army, clad in
the uniform of the nation responsible
for the prefix lex" to her title. cheered
Justify for former Queen LiIiuokaIani
last night When she had sought the
secsusion Of her car, side tracked at
the Rio Grande Western depot, await
ing the arrival of the train that bore
her eastward. an unexpected reception
was accorded her. Hundreds of SOL
diers en- route to the distant islands
Of the Pacific for military duty gath
e1 ed about her coach and paid tribute
TO her presence with hearty cheers.
Many of the soldiers had seen serv-
ice in her former island home and
did not hesitate to make the fact
known The little group of former
subjects who sat chatting with their
former queen in confidential whispers
were at first alarmed, The shades
were hastily drawn. When the friend
~ attitude of the soldiers became man
ifest LilluOkalani presented herself at
the window and with quiet dignity
bowed acknowledgment. This act OF
courtesy ELECTED further cheers from
the soldier boys. Who clambored on
their train again. A few moments
later the train of the former sovereign
of Hawaii was speeding away, leav-
ing Abraham Fernandez and his family
staring through the darkness where
the red signal lights showed the trail
of the disappearing train.
1t was Fernandez the faithful visit
or from Hawaii, and his family, who
remained with Liliuokalani to the
last. After a season of sightseeing

and social functions the distinguished
visitor departed from the Kenyon at 6
O'Clock with her adopted daughter, two
adopted sons and Mr.. FeTnandez's fam
lily to enjoy the solitude afforded by a
Pullman coach. Two teams of milk
white horses conveyed the party thith-
eT. No evening meal was partaken of
and no opportunity was afforded any
one to invade the privacy OF the little
gathering
In the forenoon at 9 o'clock the ex-
queen and her party had enjoyed a
trip to SsltaiT, accompanied by Will
lam Mcmillan, Robert Taylor, II. p.
Richards and several officials of the
Mormon church. President Smith had
an important engagement that could
noe be broken, so he sent his regrets.
A group picture was taken of the en-
tire party and samples Of the water
were sealed in TASKS, one being given
to Ijliuokalani and the other to
Fernandez. At 1880 the return trip
was made.
The party was then driven to the
presidents Office, where the ex-queen,
in a gracefully worded address, eX-
pressed her appreciation to President
Smith and his counselors for the re-
ception accorded her. Expressions of
felicitation were exchanged and the
ex-QUeen's party left for a drive about
the city, including Fort Douglas.
Shortly after o'clock the return trip
was made to the hotel. where luncheon
was partaken of. The remainder of
the afternoon was passed in seclUsion,
while the members Of Mr.. fernandez
family entertained visitors with music
in the parlOrs of the hotel.

WANT TARIFF REDUCED.
Cuban Delegation Makes Plea in Be
half of suger and Tobacco.

Washington. Nov 25-A delegation
Of CUbans called upon the president
today and presented a petition adopted
Oy the industrial OrganiZatiO Of the
island. urging upon his attention the
necessity of reduction in the American
tariff upon Cuban products, partiCu-
larry upon sugar and tobacco. The
secretary of war and other officials also
we recalled upon.
The delegation consisted Of Fran
cisco Gambia, president of the General
Society of Merchants and Business
Men of Cuba; Miguel Mendoza. Simon
Dumois. Louis Francke. Gustave
Book, Dionisio ValascO. Juan Pedro
and Alfonso Peasant. The delegation
was accompanied by State Senator
Frank D. Pavey and L. Y. DeAba6. a
member Of the former Cuban delega-
ton on economic affairs, which visited
Washington last winter.
The petition says that the economical
situation in which the island of Cuba
is placed is such that the remedies
suggested admit Of no DELAY and con-
cludes as follows:
we therefore respectfully entreat
you. either by virtue of the Consti-
tutional authority vested in you or by
requesting congress i'm your first mes
sage to grant you the necessary au-
thority to Immediately establish ample
commercial privileges between the
United SJates-the almost exclusive
market for our prOduCts-and Cuba
based on the foregoing petition. as a
measure of the most urgent necessity
and indispensable for the salvation Of
the island"

steadeTs to cultivate as well as live
upon their land.
Lands for Grazing.
Referring to the grazing lands, he
says probably 400, OOO, 600 acres of the
public domain has no agriculture value
except for pasturage. 1t is at present
an open proposition. with no laws for
United States protection or disposal.
He refers to the frequent conflicts of
the farmers employing irrigation with
the range stockmen, and recommends,
SIS a remedy and beneficial measure
the leasing of the grazing land in such
way as not to interfere with the
hOmesteader The result he believes
would amount in the aggregate to a
large sum. which could be apprOpri-
ately applied to the reclamation of the
irrigable lands.
He points out that such leasing is
not an experiment. as il has been
tried. although in a limited way, in
Colorado, Idaho, Montana. Nebraska,
Utah and Wyoming. He winds up the
discussion of the subject by present
ing the following conclusions:
First-That private enterprise will
have to be supplemented by public aid
in the construction Of certain classes
of irrigation works if we are to secure
the largest development of western ag-
riculture-
SecOnd-That reservoirs located in
the channels of running streams should
be Fubic works
Third-That the first step toward ma
tiOnal aid for irrigation should be the
passage of enlightened conditions of
water laws by the states to be bene-
flied
FOurth-That the land laws should
be modified by repeating the desert act
and by requiring cultivation as well
as residence on a homestead.
Fifth-That the nOn-irrigable grazing
lands should be leased in small tracts
so as to unite the irrigable and the
pasture lands.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1901-11-26
Congress Should Act.

These, it is urged, should not be
owned by private parties, and the ar
gument produced in favor of con-
structing reservoirs by act OF con-
gress is the same which justifies set
ting aside forest reserves and the
maintaining of a fund to control them.
On the other hand the secretary
points out that an appropriation of
money by congress to construed such
irrigation works viii bring the coun-
try face TO face with a new govern
ment policy and win carry a larger
measure of public control over the
water resources of the west than has
hitherto prevailed or been sanctioned
by public sentiment
He reviews the influence of the land
laws on irrigation development, stat
ing that laws which control the dis
pOsal of 500. 000. 900 acres Of arid public
lands must have a vital influence upon
the success of the irrigated agricul-
ture. He condemns the desert land
act. stating that $40 acres is. more than
a man of moderate means can cultivate
under irrigation. Cutting down the
entries from $40 to 320 acres is an
Improvement but he believes in the
entire repeal Of the desert land act
ane in requiring settlers or home

said among other things:

Then, expressing the hope that the
recruits would be true to their oath

IF I must lead you in war, you must
not think that the emperor has not

FAMOUS LOST
MINE Is FOUND
Discovery Made by ProSpeCtor
in CatskiIl Range.
RICH IN SILVER AND LEAD
AT ONE TIME WAS KNOWN ONLY
TO AN INDIAN.
RICH IN SILVER AND LEAD

New York. Nov. 25.-The Tribune
prints the following: After being lost
for seventy-fve years, the Ninety
nine" silver mine, once famous through
the whole Catskin range, has been
found again. At least that is the belief
Of J. o. Poole, mining expert, who is
said to live in Trenton, n. J.
He has discovered a cave in the
heart of the Shawangunk mountains.
not far from EllenviHe, Ulster county,
New York, which exposes a wide vein
OF peculiar ore. Numerous assays show
heavy value in silver lead and other
minerals. Every effort has been made
to keep the discovery a secret until
mineral rights TO the surrounding
mountain property could be purchased.
Poole and the New Jersey men who
are backing him are said to have
secured such rights on more than 5000
acres and are preparing to start act
i've mining operations.
The story of the accidental discovery
Of the mine was brought to this city
from Kingston. Judge A. I. Clear
water of Kingston returned from FL
lenville a few days ago and brought
some specimens of the ore. Judge
Clearwater said:
a few weeks ago. while tramping
through the hills, Poole noticed what
seemed to be Groupings of silver and
cOpper-bearing ore at the base Of the
Shawangunk. He climbed up the lead
and made extensive excavations, with
the result that he found a cave or
opening in the mountains, from which
he says he has since taken large
quantities of almost pure lead ore, as
well as quartz, which bears silver and
zinc in large proportions"
The mine takes its name from
Wawarsing Indian named Neopakiptic,
but better known as ''Ninety-nine."
The Indian lived near Sockanissing,
and was accustomed to come among
the settlers Of the valley with chunks
Of almost pure lead and silver. which
he exchanged for provisions. He said
that he dug the ore in a cave in the
Shawangunk mountains.
A white friend. Ben Depuy. sue
ceeded in persuading Ninety mine" to
lead him to the cave with eyes tightly
bandaged. DepUy returned with tales
Of wonderfully rich ledge. He did
not succeed in finding the mine again,
however, and "Ninety-nine" died with
his secret untold
About fifty years ago two western
prOspectOrs, it is said, appeared in the
mountains, accompanied by a WiscOn-
sin Indian. They were provided with
Indian maps and diagrams. They
searched for several weeks without sue
cess. and finally returned to the west
Since that time no systematic search
has been made, and recently the story
has been regarded in the light of a
pretty legend.
