"The only place, as far rs law is con-

ship" remarked n vessel owner. 1.-THE
purpose of the law was excellent
enough. There was time when emf
grants were being brought to this
country in very large numbers, or by
the Shipload,' rs it was termed. There
is no doubt that there WAS crowding in
the ships that broi ght them, and to
prevent this a law WAS passed impos-
ing upon the ship fine of $40 for
every death that occurred during the
passage from natural causes of per-
sons over s years of age. This
put q stop to ovorcrowding, or, at
least, it is supposed that it did, which
is about the same thing. Ships do not
fancy having to pay fines of this kind
"Of course. IN comparison with the
great army of persons who are brought

cUBA,s VAST RESOURCES.

Tire mineral resources of Cuba are
of greater variety and extent than has
ever been imagined in this country"
Such is the statement of Charles Will
lard Hayes, of the United States geo.
logical survey bureau, who has just
returned from an investigation in the
island of Cuba and the island of Pines,
to the southwark. Mr.. Hayes went
at the request of Gen. Wood. and
while there visited the provinces of
Havana, Matanzas, Pinar del Rio, and
Santa Clara. He was accompanied by
two assistants, T. Wayland Vaughn
and Arthur G. Spencer, who will re-
main on the island indefinitely to
complete the survey.
In Matanzas province he found cop
per, iron and asphaltum, and on the
isle of Pinos deposits of marble such
as are eqraled in few places in the
world. This marble includes the
finer grade of monumental marble. as
well as deposits of the coarser sorts
for building material. In Santa Clara
province he found copper and asphalt
um, but saw no indications of the
gold which has been reported there.
OF iron ore he saws the deposits there
are even larger than thossin Pennsyl-
vania, and they compare favorably
with the Lake Superior deposits.
They are found along the coast east
of Santiago and are accessible to
transportation routes.
Copper was found in big deposits
near Santiago, and Mr.. Hayes says
the copper mines were worked eX-
tensively until stopped by the ''ten
years war" The Spanish method of
mining was to simply take out the
richer deposits and not to pursue a
method of cleaning up as the work
progressed, such as is practiced by
the miners of the United States. The
|asphaltum is of the finest grade in the
Trinidad and Venezula deposits. Much
of il is found in the vicinity of Card
enas and in Cardenas bay. Fleets of
boats are used to dredge it from the
deposits At the bottom of the bay.
This is used largely in the manu-
facture of varnish. and is worth from
$50 to 800 ton. In Santiago province
Mr.. Hayes found almost iuexhaustible
deposits of manganese, which is used
in making steel by the Bessemer pro-
cess. The Localities where it exists are
accessible.
It is h6rdly necessary to do more
than repeat the suggestion that with
the discoveries of Cuba's resources
tina chances of the islands indepen-
dence become DINNER.

SPANISH sWISDLEs.

If you get letter with a Spanish
postage stamp on it. the Cleveland
Press suggests, lock your money up,
give it to your wife or have a guar
dian appointed for yourself. The
chances are you are q prospective
victim of the Spanish Swindle."
The Spanish swindle bids fair to be
more successful than the ancient and
honorable gold brick swindle. Thou
sands of letters have. been mailed
from Spain to people in this country.
The letters are all alike. They are
brief and businesslike- They recite
that the writer is in Spanish prison,
condemned to death, and that he is
anxious to give his fortune. which
ranges from 100000 TO $1,000, 600,
to any honest man or woman who
will accept the guardianship of the
writer's daughter.
All that is required is to send over
from $500 TO 5000, so that the girl
may be struggled out of Spain with
her securities before they are seized
and confscated by the Spanish gov
eminent.
New York City was first worked by
the Spanish swindlers, but the letters
are getting west now, and hundreds
of hard-fsted Americans are giving
up good hard dollars. They get large
blocks of experience in return.

soMEFACrs ABOUT BANKS.

The new national banking law has
been in effect 1 months. The imme-
date result of the law, which permits
the issue of circulation up to the par
value of bonds deposited and which
reduces the tax on such circulation,
has been the formation of 529 new
banks with a total capitalization of
over $27, 100000. During the same
period 80 banks have gone into volun-
tary liquidation, but in almost every
case this has been the result of con-
solicitations. Ohio, Indiana, Illinois,
Wisconsin, Minnesota, Texas. Michi-
gan, Iowa and Missouri-nine states
have 176 of the new banks. The re-
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1901-05-18

suit has been a great increase in cir
culating n edium in these states and q
correspondingly light drain upon the
large money centers to supply funds
to move the crops of the Mississippi
valley. In New England, where there
is more manufacturing than farming,
there have been only seven new banks
started in the IL months. This would
indicate that, aside from great cities,
farming communities are more favor
able to banks and banking than manu-
featuring towns.
