New Road to Pleasant Valley.

Work was begun last week by Geo. F.. Shute, as superintendent, on the new road which is to connect the up- per Salt river valley with the Pleas ant Valley and Holbrook road. About twenty miles of road will have so be built, which presents no serious dlili' culties. Very little excavating will be necessary and there will be only one grade of any consequence, and that not very steep, along the entire route. The county has contributed s450 toward the construction of the road and the balance will be made up by the people of Salt river valley and the Sierra Ancha and Pleasant valley It is expected that the construction ot this road will be the means of divert ing nearly all the business of the Pleasant valley country from Hol- brook tO Globe, amounting to about S20,00o year, and that cattle will also come thlS way for shipment, as there is abundance of feed and water along the route, while on the drive tn HolbrOOk there is stretch Of fifty i've miles without water or grass, Ap- plication will be made for mail route over the new road which will be much preferable to the present route from PaysOn to Pleasant yalisy
 Capt, II Humphreys Read and Vim cent F. Tommins, largely interested in the Troy and Manhattan copper companies, were recently at Troy. In company with General Manager Cut, ting they viewed the country about Florence and south to Casa Grande The Blade says: Tt will be remem- bered that these gentlemen, in con neotion with other prominent shock holders in the Troy and Man nhattan companies, few months since, filed with the secretary of the territory a declaration of intention to build rail road from Casa Grande to Troy via Florence. They were here looking over the situation with that object in view and left thoroughly impressed with the belief that the natural rt- sources of this section, if developed would furnish a wonderful amount ot traffic for q local railroad and make the enterprise an exceedingly prnfiJa, bic one. Being close and intelligent observers, they also saw that with g railroad leading through this valley and up the river. other great enter prises could be inaugurated and madt a profitable success, and later on the, will probably take up the question O a large custom reduction and poweI plant.

Accused OF LooTING.
Wife of an American Diplomat
Accused of Looting the Pal
ace of the Empress.

Pekiug, May 23.-Like Banquo's
ghost, the loot question will not be still
The last general meeting Of the diplo-
matte corps was the scene OF a more
acute phase Of the controversy. The
question was raised bya diplomat friend
ly to Lady Macdonald, aud who thinks
a great Injustice was done her by cup
Chaffee's loot letters on lootipg.
The question being on the carpet, the
ministers of two European countries
rose successively and made statements
as to Lady MacDonald's behavior the
day OF the first visit of the allies to the
Forbidden City, which were practically
identical. They were with her through
out the day and assert that ahe left the
palace without any plunder except a
yellow rose plucked in the empress gar
den, but they said:
I'VE did, however, witness one scene
OF looting which, together with Lady
MacDona d. we tried, but tunsuccess 'ully,
to prevent. In the palace we met the
wife OF an American diplomat, accom-
panied by an American curio dealer.
We suggested that the reception WAS ex-
clusively for the members OF the diplo-
natic cJrps, but she persisted in taking
in the curio dealer, whose expert opinion
she said she wanted upon some OF the
empress ornaments. Reaching the pa
villion the curio dealer ssid:
"'Here, l am informed, the most valu-
able porcelains are concealed. X"
"In spite OF the protests of Lady Mac
Donald and ourselves, ths wife OF the
American diplomat tried to open the
cupboards. Finally she called an Amer
ican soldier, who pried the cupboards
open with his bayonet. whereupon, not
Wishing to assist at scene we could not
prevent, we Withdrew"
The American representative at the
meeting made no reply, but the opinion
is confidently expressed that he or the
husband OF the accused lady will demand
retraction.

TRIBUTE TO SALISBURY IRON.

TRIBUTE TO SALISBURY IRON.
 In recent issue of Harper's Week. ly, Lieut. F. L. Garden, R. c. S., in his article on the Gruson coast-defence turretS, makes mention of Salisbury iron as follows: "One of the largest users of charcoal-iron in this country, states that mixture of charcOal-iron made in the Lake Superior region and and in the New England states will give an efficiency of residence and. a lower cost of manufacture than can be obtained with charcoal-irOn made in any other country in the world. Chill ing charcOal-iron has for many years constituted the leading article of manufacture in the Eastern and New England states, and in the past 20 years has grown to be one of the great products of the Lake Superior region. New England Salisbury .charcoal-iron has been used in United States gov ernment work for upwards of 50 years, and occupies to-day the first position where qualities of strength and tough ness are required. The production of Salisbury iron has been limited as compared with the great production of Lake Superior charcOal-irOn, but combination of the two in certain quantities produces the hightest grade of castings of this kind that are made in the world.'' This is quite compli- ment for our Salisbury iron and as the governments first order calls for P of the Gruson turrets which will require, at least, 1000 tons of iron of the above mentioned mixture, it is probable that Salisbury will have busy time to fur nish it's quota of pig iron, when Uncle Samuel gets to work fortifying his whole coast line.
