Santa Fe May Rebuild Hotel

The Albuquerque Journa1-Democrat
says. 1t is understood that the officers
of the Santa Fee are considering the con-
struction of a large depot and hotel
building at Laguna, to take the place of
the building destroyed by fire The
matter of replacing the old structure
had, it is said, been under considera-
ton for some time The plan Of build
ing a hotel there is believed to be
feasible, since many tourists visit the
Indian PuebIos and many more would
go were better accommodations provid-
ed. The plan is yet in embryo, and it
may be decided that there is not enough
business to warrant the construction OF
a hotel

By the refusal of the banks in Manila
to receive deposits of Mexican silver a
new phase of the currency question has
arisen. The banks say there is no more
room in their vaults for such deposits.
1t is believed that this action is taken
with the object of forcing legislation on
the whole currency question. There is
not sufficient American currency in
Manila to transact business, which is
being injured by the accumulation of
Mexican silver.
Colonel Charles w. Miner of the Sixth
infantry reports the conditions on the
island Of Negros to be unsatisfactory,
and that 400 bolomen armed with rifles,

leader Papa Isio, are t~errorizing the

The American chamber of commerce
in Manila will appeal to congress to
enact laws to allow Chinese to enter the
Philippine islands under such restric-
tions as the Philippine commission may
enact. The country, it is said. cannot
be properly developed without Chinese
labor.

OWNING Rod to Locate Metals.

A scientific divining rod, says a Chi
cage dispatch, has been invented by a
Chicago man, Fred II. Brown. Already
the electric metal locator" as it is
called, has revealed gold mines in Idaho
and Oregon, and other important treas
ures in Missouri and Canada. A COM
pany incorporated for 81, 000, 900 under
the laws of Oregon has purchased
Browns invention. The fact that an
electric current will make a ground cir
cult along the lines of least resistance is
the basic principle of the invention.
Furthermore, it being known that a
metallic streak in the earth is a better
conductor for a current than the ground
on each side of the metal made it pos
sible for Brown to perfect Al instru-
ment by which readings are taken and
lodges of metal accurately located.
Steel rods are stuck in the ground
on the claim where metal is superb
cially traced. Wires are strung between
the rods, and as the rods are moved
along on parallel lines the resistance OF
q given electric current is read on in
struments. Where the least resistance
is found the operators order a hole dug.
