PRECIOUS METALS
STATISTICS ON THE GOLD AND
SILVER OUTPUT.
Washington Is Slowly Recovering
From Depressing Effect of the
Diversion Of Capital to Alaska
Latter District Shows a short
age in Gold From Previous Year.

Washington, Aug. 26.-The produc-
ton of gold in the United States during
the calendar year 1901, according to the
annual statement just completed by the
director OF the mint. was 3,S05, 800
ounces. valued at SIS, $3.50, 700.
The production of silver was as, PA
600 ounces, commercially valued at
s33, l2S, 400. The gold output was
S5O4 800 and the silver output 2,433,-
600 ounces less than in 1900.
Director Roberts, in his report, has
this to say in regard to the mining of
precious metals in the Pacific North
west and in Alaska:
Mining in Washington is slowly re-
covering from the depressing effect of
the temporary diversion OF capital to
Alaska The industry may be consid-
cred as improving, and the close OF the
present year is expected to show better
ment in development and production.
During the past year the Seattle
assay Off re received the following GUAM
titles of gold and silver from neighbor-
ing fields: $3,476,759 from Alaska;
S. $40 from Idaho; 81 .9O4 from Oregon;
SOS, 1854 from Washington; 1927 ,67S
from British Columbia, and $ll .097 lis
from the Yukon territory.
"The gold output of Alaska in 1901
was over 81 200, 900 less than that OF
the year preceding. due largely TO de-
crease in the output from the Nome
field. Not only was the Nome season
unexceptionally short. but apprehen-
sive uncertainty was universally felt on
account of the immense amount OF liti-
CATION that followed the advent OF the
judiciary in the summer of 1900
Many rich claims were not worked at
all, others but slightly, for when the
court officials withdrew in August the
season was nearing its end.
THE rulings of Judge Wickersham,
who arrived in September. to the effect
that original holders of mining ground
would be permitted towork their claims,
and that jumpers would receive no con-
sideration, restored confidence and gave
back to the owners possession OF many
good properties. but the relief came too
late to have any appreciable effect upon
the output for that season.
Alaska's gold product Tor i9ol was
valued at So, 932 226, as against SIS, 1866
1877 the year previous. The silver pro-
duct was 500, 499, as against sos, 734 in
1900. OF this total Nome last year
produced $4,11O.7l2 in gold and 500
$40 in silver, whereas Nome's gold and
silver in 1900 was IS, lOO. 900.
"Jn this connection it is interesting
to note that during 1901 the United
States minis, ASSAY Offices, retineries
and smelters received $l7.752, A63 in
klondike gold besides much silver.

SCOURCE UF THE SEA.
Gallant Little Bark Rrings Terrible
Tale of Suffering,

Port Townsend, Wash. Aug. o.
Starvation and death stalked hand IN
hand on the little Peruvian bark Santa
Rosa, Captain Renterie, which is at
Port Townsend from San Buenavenatu-
ra, United States OF Colombia, South
America. With three dead andfive dying
from the pangs OF hunger and the dread
full scourge OF the sea beri-beri, the gal
liant master and two brave apprentices
worked the craft into safe anchorage
at the down Sound port.
The dying were taken to the United
States Marine Hospital at Port Town
send The bodies OF the victims had
already been consigned to an unmarked
sailors grave in the South Pacific
Ocean. There has been no parallel case
since the misadventures of the French
bark Les Adelphes, when the vessel
was found, floating off the coast with
all OF the crew dead, dying or suffering
terribly from the same drea" disease.

WORK IN VAIN.
Robbers Hold Up a Train But Get
No Booty,

Spokane, Aug. 26.-The west bound
Northern Pacific train was held up at
Standpoint, Idaho, IS miles east of here,
at IL o'clock. The robbers, OF whom
there were seven. forced the engineer
20 stop the train while they uncoupled
the baggage car. Then they compelled
the engineer. at the point OF a revolver
to pull up the track about three miles
fur her. where they tried to wreck the
baggage car with dynamite.
The explosion failed 10 work, for
some unknown cause. and after spend
ing Is minutes with the car the robbers
decamped. allowing the engineer TO go
back to the train with his engine. Two
other thugs had guarded the train,
keeping the passengers inside by firing
revolvers along the sides. No attempt
was made to modest the passengers, and
after the engine came back the other
robbers left and the train came on to
Spokane.
The train was heavily loaded.

TRADERS WORRY CAPTURES FLEET
ADMIRAL HlOOINSON ENDS NAVAL
MANEUVERS.
Takes Commander Pillsbury's Hos
tile Ships and Knocks Several
Kinds of Tar Out of Them on
Paper---FOur Days of Ceaseiess
Vigil for Warriors.

Rockport, Mass, Aug. o5-The
naval search problem on the New Eng
land coast was terminated at $40
O'Clock in the morning by the signal
"Surrender, unconditional, from Rear
Admiral Higginson's flagship, and the
reply, accept surrender from the
fore-truck of the Prairie, Commander
Pillsbury's flagship. The battle be-
tween the blue, or defending squadron
and the white, or attacking squadron,
was thus quickly ended eight miles
south of Thatcher's island. The en-
envy had most signally failed to make a
harbor having for its objective point
Salem.
a prepOnderance of fighting strength,
relatively "a points, represented by the
battleships kearsarge, Alabama and
Massachusetts, Scorpion and Il torpedo
boat, overwhelmed the As points re-
presented by the auxiliary cruisers
Prairie, Panther and Supply. To
speak from theoretic standpoint, the
white squadron was entirely DESTROYED
by the guns of the defendant battle
ships. Thus, on the fourth night, the
game of naval strategy was brought to
an end, it having covered period of
unceasing toll, sleepless nights and of
an anxious and weary vigil, and of
grave uncertainty to its participants.
The destruction of Pillsbury's squad
ron occurred at a point just within the
outer limit of Glouscester harbor, not
over eigh: miles south from Thatch-
er's island, off which had been anchor
ed, since "Wednesday, when the war
game was declared opened, the three
powerful battleships of the blue squad
ron. The surrounding and putting out
OF action" of the squadron in COM
mand of Commander Pillsbury was the
eliminating incident in one of the
most exciting chapters in the peace
history OF the American navy.
For the placing in operation OF man
euvers of the warships off the coast of
New England, the navy had long pre-
pared itself, and had looked forward
with keen anticipation. As planned by
the naval authorities at Washington,
two squadrons were to be put into the
game, one the blue, the defending feet,
and the other, the white, to be hos
tile fleet bent upon effecting an an
chorage in some unprotected harbor on
the coast from Cape Elizabeth to Cape
Cod, opposed all the time by the first
feet. This anchorage had to be main
tanned against the defenders for period
of six hours. Commander Pillsburys
white squadron consisted of the aux
iliary cruisers Prairie, Panther and Sup
ply. The two former boats were each
assigned twenty points OF fighting
strength, while the Supply was assum-
ed to represent five points.

FOREST RESERVE
President Issues Proclamation
Creating First Of Conse.
quence in Alaska.

Washington, Aug. PA procla ma
ton was issued by President Roosevelt
during the day, creating the Alexander
Archipelago Forest Reserve. This re-
serve, which is the first OF importance
in Alaska, is situated in the extreme
southeastern part of the territory, and
will comprise Prince OF Wales Island
and adjacent islands to the seward,
Chicagof, kupreanof, kuiu and Zarem-
DO islands, with many smaller islands
lying farther out to sea.
Lieut.. Emmons. OF the navy, who is
now engaged in the search for old Rus
sian boundary monuments in Alaska,
once made an examination of the tim
Der resources of southeastern Alaska
islands, and he urgently recommended
that the Alexander Archipelago be con-
stituted the reservation. He said that
these islands contained most valuable
timber, and that means must be taken
Immediately to prevent depredations.
The recommendation appealed to Presi-
dent Roosevelt strongly. for it is not
too much to say that he takes more
lively lulcTcst III tilC HetOs VI -1lcdshd
than any of his predecessors have taken.
None OF the bona fide settlers or in
habitants of Alexander Islands will be
deprived of any valid rights he may
possess either under the Russian regime
or under acts of congress. Several
claims have been initiated upon Chi
cagof and Prince of Wales islands, COW
ering lands occupied for purposes OF
trade and manufacture, and these
claims will be respected. Further To-
cations, however, are prohibited, as the
entire reservation will come under rules
that are prescribed for forest reserves in
the United States.
None OF the territory comprised in
the new reservation has been surveyed,
and its area is unknown.

FIGURING ON TRANSPORTATION
OF CANAL SUPPLIES.
According to the General Construc.
ton of Maritime Commercial
Law Foreigners Are Not Re-
strictcd in the Carrying Trade
to the Panama Canal.

New York, Aug. 25.-Referring to
the fact that the construction OF the
Panama canal will necessitate the
transportation of hundreds of cargoes of
construction material, food supplies for
wOrkmen, etc, the Journal of Com
merce says:
Panama and Colon are foreign ports,
and there is nothing therefore to pre-
vent foreign shipowners from compet-
ing at low rates for carrying material
1t is said by representative of the
Panama canal interests that the mater
ial required in the construction of the
canal will certainly exceed $40 900 900,
in addition to food supplies. This ma
terial will consist largely OF cement.
granite, lumber and machinery. The
lumber will undoubtedly come largely
from Oregon and that section of the
country and will not be matter Of
much concern to shipowners on the
Atlantic Ocean, but in the case of
cement, stone and machinery the items
will he of great importance, and COM
munications have already been sent to
the government at Washington with a
view to seeing if some wav cannot be
decided upon whereby this enormous
carrying movement can be confined to
American ships 1t is proposed that
a construction OF the coastwise law
could be made declaring the six mile
zone on each side OF the canal to be
American territory, and this would con-
vert Panama and Colon into domestic
ports This zone, under the treaty with
Colombia, is merely leased to the
United States, as Colombia does not
relinquish her sovereignty.
Some doubt is expressed whether the
government could assume the ports OF
Panama and Colon without mourning
national complications. Under the bill
as passed by congress no restriction of
the carrying trade to American vessels
can be made, and American shipowners
claim that they will not be able to meet
the competition of foreign vessels in
this trade, for the reason that large
number of fruit vessels are available for
the service, largely Norwegian vessels,
which bring fruit north and have vir-
tually no south bound cargo. these
vessels would naturally be able to carry
south bound cargo at much lower rates
than could American vessels, which
must make their entire cargo expenses
on south-bound cargo and return north
practically in ballast.

TAFT At MANILA.
Civil Governor of the Philippines
Gets an Ovation.

Manila, Aug. 23.-Gov. Taft reached
here at daylight, on board the United
States gunboat Gen. Alva, from Singa-
pore, Straits Settlements. He was
welcomed with an enthusiastic popular
demonstration.
The day had been made holiday,
and the city was decorated. Eight
large arches had been erected on the
streets. Twenty thousand natives from
adjoining provinces participated in the
demonstration in honor OF the govern
vessels in the bay, and 80 decorated
craft, carrying members of the civil
commission, military officers and the
reception committee, met the Gen.
Alva in the bay and escorted Gov. Taft
to the entrance of the Pasig river. The
governor was escorted bya large process
sion to Il place IN the walled city,
where public reception was held.
Responding to an address of welcome,
Gov. Taft outlined the progress and the
result of his negotiations at Rome in
the matter OF the Philippines, and said
all church questions were progressing
toward satisfactory settlement. The
governor said the action taken by con-
gress concerning the Philippines show
ed that the American people honestly
desired to help the Filipinos. The
Americans were determined the islands
should not be exploited by Americans
at the expense Of the Filipinos. Gov.
Taft nrpdicted that eyentua llv the arch
ipelago would have practically free
trade, and he congratulated the Fill
Pine people upon the restoration OF
peace. He advised the Filipinos to till
the soil and restore their country rather
than waste time in useless political agi-
tation. He promised personally to
labor for the natives, and asked for their
confidence and support.
Gov. Taft was given an ovation on
the streets of the city during his passage
to the palace, and he received another
ovation at his reception.

MADE PUBLIC.
Philippine Superintendent on Public
Instructions Report.


Washington, Aug. 25.-The bureau
of insular affairs of the war department
has made public the report of Frank H.
Bowen, acting superintendent of public
instruction for the Philippine islands,
upon charges made in the United
States against the school system CT the
islands, alleging that it was used as a
PROSECUTING agency against Catholics
and generally used to the prejudice of
Catholicism. The charges were for
warded to Manila and the reply was
made to Acting Governor Wright. The
report of Superintendent Bowen is dat
ed July 7, and is general and specific
denial of the charges. He says that OF
20 persons who have been division sup
erintendents only one hastever been a
clergyman. Three divisions of this
were superintended from a list submit
ted by leaders of the Roman Catholic
church in the United States. In this
connection the report says:
The question of the religious beliefs
of applicants and appointees was never
considered until late in 1901. At that
time special lot of applications,
gathered by the authorities OF the
United States, was sent to the civil
government of the island. From these
special lists three division superinten-
dents and % teachers We're appointed
In reporting these appointments to the
civil government the general superin-
tendent stated:
81 have had much difficulty in find
ing people in this lot of applications
who are possessed of the educational
preparation and teaching experience
which is required OF other appointees in
this department. Those who have no,
been selected seem to be wholly I'M
| suitable."
