THE MOSQUITO INDIANS.
Great Britain Endeavoring to Re-
Iinquish Her Protection over Them

Washington. Nov. 1.-THE statement
IN Managua dispatch credited to Mr..
Paget, the British secretary of lesa-
ton there, TO the effect that the United
states has approved the claim of Great
Britain to be recognized as a protector
OF the Mosquito Indians has attracted
the attention OF the diplomatic body
here. An inquiry indicates that there
Is danger OF complete misunder-
standing OF the matter. The British
government is endeavoring TO negoti.
ate treaty with Nicaragua which viii
enable the British to retire from all
claim OF jurisdiction on the Mosquito
coast, leaving Nicaragua In full soy
ereignty there, with due guarantees
LOT tne proper treatment OF the In
dams hitherto under British protection
The United States government has
taken no action in the matter but II 10,
OF course, to the interest of this coun-
try that some such absolute recognition
OF the sovereignty OF Nicaragua should
be mace and the pending questions
arising out Of the treaty Of Managua
between Great Britain and Nicaragua
gotten out Of the way.
The fact is that so far from acquir-
Ing any new privileges on the Mosquito
coast, the British government is re-
lineuishing those IL now enjoys. The
treaty of Managua negotiated about
NIFTY years ago between Great Britain
an Nicaragua imposed upon the Eng
lish government the duty Of protect
ing the Mosquito Indians. Great Brit
I'm Is trying now simply to have the
Nicaraguan government enter into
treaty obligations to care for these In
dians In the future.

A. E. Mckenzie Arrives.

The deal by which syndicate Of
eastern capitalists will secure the con-
troll of the milling industry Of Utah and
southern Idaho is rapidly nearing con-
summation. AMBROSE Il. Mckenzie, Of
Denver, the representative of the syn
dicate, who secured options on over rs
per cent OF the mills OF Utah and south
ern Idaho, returned this morning from
Denver after making his report.
When seen at the Kenyon this after
noon he stated to News" representa-
live that everything connected with the
transaction Is progressing nicely and
al rapidly as possible. "There is every
reason in the world" said he, for the
belief that the deal will be consum-
mated on the lines originally planned
and by the first OF the coming year as
we Intended. l am on my way to the
Bear Lake Duck club for an outing
with Judge Bradley and others and
really haven't much l may talk about
now" However, before disseminating
MIR. Mckenzie stated that he stopped
over here to meet a certain gentleman
interested IN the deal and ii Is more
than probable that II was Hon. Moses

A probable Marine disaster.

Philadelphia. Nov i4.--Capt. Ferlan.
Of the Australian steamship Etelka. has
brought TO this port news OF pro-
bable marine disaster. Early on the
morning OF November s. when the Etel-
ka was In lat. a. north. long. 50 west.
Capt. Ferlan stated that his attention
was drawn to what he believes to have
been burning ship. The craft was In
visible hut the glare OF the fame could
be plainly aeen. The course Of the Etel-
ka was changed. but before she could
reach the burning vessel an explosion
apparently occurred and the ship was
torn to pieces. The Etelka cruised about
in the vicinity Of where the fire oc-
CURED but could find no trace OF any
Of the crew who II was thought, might
have taken TO the small boats.
Capt Ferlan says lust before the ex.
ploslon the flames shot high In the air.
which leads him TO believe that the
vessel was probably an oil carrier.
II was impossible, he says. to identi-
~ the vessel.

1t Is generally the belief among -four
men here THAI the deal has been con-
summated and only awaits the making
out of the papers and Of checks TO an
amount between $500 900 and $1,000 900.
by the deal the syndicate will secure
the principal mills in southern Idaho,
and the Cache, Weber, Davis, salt
Lake, Utah and Sanpete county mills
besides the principal ones elsewhere In
the state. II Is estimated that over 3D.
200, 900 Is involved In the transaction.
Mr.. Mckenzie stated today that II
viii take about month TO get the pa
pers and legal matters into shape and
that he thinks the deal viii be con-
cluded before the LIST OF January.
The pool Is one of the largest ever
transacted In Utah. Several times be-
fore there have been attempts TO get
the miilcrs OF the state together In the
form OF a combination for mutual pro-
lection and profit but they have always
met with failure. Il is the opinion Of
the millers OF this city generally that
there H. not a safer and a better In.
vestmelt In the state than the fioul
milling industry on the plans outlined
by the Denver syndicate, which Is Sc.
curing the control now. They say thai
-four milling can only be conducted
profltably In this state by such com.
bination as the supply can be regulated
ana prices maintained.

SHOCK IN SALT LAKE.
Disturbances Distinctly Felt Here
Last Night for Nearly a Minute.

A well known gentleman In this city
remarked some time ago that nothing
short OF an earthquake would bring
about the moral reforms that we're
more or less contended for during the
last campaign. II now seems that the
elements have accepted his conclusions
and are acting upon his suggestions, for
about $3.50 last night the solid earth be-
gan to shake and few people were
brought to their knees voluntarily and
otherwise. Three waves passed over
the city, each one being stronger than
the one proceeding It, 80 that the last
shock was no trifiing matter The earth
quake, for all the experts pronounced
II 80 to have been, seemed to concen-
trate around the Wey hotel. where 1t
came nearly preclpitating panic. The
guests on the third floor felt 1t most. In
fact they felt 1t so badly that some Of
them ran out into the hall Some peo-
pie from California were In the hotel
They were old hands when II came to
California earthquakes, but they didn't
know anything about the Utah article.
They felt that they were on strange
ground and were not certain as to how
long they would be on any ground at
all. In front OF the hotel the shock
was very distinctly felt by some
Knutsford guests who happened to be
standing there. But nothing was felt
al the Knutsford, or indeed immedi-
ately across the street, indicating that
an earthquake like cyclone travels
on more or less narrow path, and
that outside of those limits no disturb
ance is felt.
Whenever an earthquake visits a
large city Of course the tall buildings
seem to be their special toys. Last
night the Dooly block began to vibrate
but II was only for moment. II was
pronounced enough, however. for sew
eral men who were In the building TO
notice 1t. The quake then proceeded
diagonally across the street and en-
tered Smiths drug store, gave the stove
a shake and the clerk a scare, and a
customer said, Wouldn't that Jar
your"
When next discovered 1t was in the
University club, on the third floor Of the
Jennings block. II. r. Windsor was
sitting with his chair tilted against
the wall, when suddenly his head was
lurched 10 one Side and then 10 the 9TH
er. The disturbance was over In flash
and Windsor was beginning to wonder
IL II was paresis when Professor Eaton
and Mr.. Parsons, who were present re-
marked upon the shock and then Wind
sor knew he was safe. In the head at
least.
The shock was distinctly felt in other
sections OF the city including the Hoop
er building and the New Grand thta
ter. Although the shock was slight and
the first one felt here for years. any
such elemental disturbance Is porten-
tious and has had the result OF throw
Ing some Of the citizens into somber
frame Of mind.
Salt Lake. however, was not the only
section visited by the earthquake. Re-
ports have come In from various parts
Of the state Yelling OF some very pro-
nounced shocks. At Lund II stopped
clocks and jostled the cars on the rail-
road tracks. II was felt very sensibly
at Elsinore. also at Manti and other
points.
