An objection has been raised to the forest reserve entries in this territory. It has been urged that the railroads and individuals have cut timber from the original grant of lands, leaving them practically worthless, and then trading them off to the government for script with which they may enter upon large sections of valuable lands. In this county large tracts of lands are covered with script, and in many instances the lands have been in use for years by other parties. The matter is being in vestigated by the interior depart ment.-Mohave Miner.

Maniacs and Cranks.


 Often the capitol guard at Washington has heavy work to perform, such as over towering a desperate maniac who Is bent on murder. Senator Gallinger was grab bed by the coat last year by a man, armed with a shoemaker's knife, who in sisted on tellisy a threatened war with Turkey, which was going to cost Uncle Sam million lives and $20.oOo,00o. Secret Service man, F. N. Weber, In citi- zen clothes. is always on the lookout for just such characters as the assailant Of the New Hampshire Senator. He gave Senator Gallinger the wink introduced himself to the maniac as the Secretary of War and told him he would be glad to take up the subject Of the impending war with Turkey. The ruse acted like a charm, and in a minute or two the Secret Service man had his arm linked in that of the wild-eyed stranger, who was escorted to a station house.
 Another class of law-breakers. although not so violent as the cranks and maniacs give the capitol police quite as much trou- ble. They are the conscienceless. petty thieves, whose blind passion for relics Will cause them to ruin a costly or historic picture or statue for the sake of sou- venir The multilated bronze doors at the principal entrances to the building are pathetic monuments to the ruthless ac- tjvity of the relic hunters. Fingers, miniature swords and stirrups have been wrenched from the bronze figures on these doors, while several of the marble statues are badly cnipped and scared as the result of the work of vandals
 These fiends will ruin a costly lace cur tain by clipping square inch or 1t 10 show the folks at home who have not been so fortunate as to visit the capitol or will chip off a splinter from the highly polished hard wood of piece of furniture of historic value just to show them what stvle of things there Is at the capitol. Only last summer some one pried off the feathered arrows on the marble statue of Marouette in Statuary Hall. If the mis- creant had been detected he would have been punished as was the PennsylVania nilitiaman who was caught knocklhs off a tiny bayonet from a figure in the bronze doors. He was sentenced 10 SIX months imprisonment and fined $lo0, ano when he returned to Pennsylvania, after serving out his term, he was drumheadeo out of the State Guard by order of the Governor.
 Last spring a dear old woman, while walking through the Marble Room, felt IoosA file move under her foot She stooped and picked It up. slipping 1t into her pocket. not thinking for a moment that 1t would be impossible to replace tn niece. which was part of an English pat tern. The guards heard of the theft anc traced the woman to her hotel, where she disgoreed her treasure. So many or tne thoughtless vanda!s who do things of this
 kind are people of refinement and cultur'
 that it is impracticable to punish then properly

Chicaeo Grain and Provisions.

Chicago. Dec. 27.-There was little doing fin either grain or provision pits today put in spite of the extreme dullness the mar ket exhibited steadiness. May wheat clos, ing unchanged. May corn Is higher and oats unchanged. May provisions were Zl-Z lower to 21-295c higher:
 The only feature in the wheat pit was the steadiness manifested in the face Of a very dull market. Receipts in the North west and in primary points were again small and helped in maintaining prices There was a tendency early toward high CT prices, but realizing by the bull leader held the market down and fluctuations were confined within very narrow range. May opened unchanged to shade higher at T 1-4 to 7 1-4qF77 3-S and sold between T Is and l7 S-s, closing un- changed at 7 1-4. Clearances of wheat and -four were equal to 2F.4O0 bushels. Primary receipts were 67e. 800 bushels against SIS. 900 bZushels years ago Min neapolis and Duluth reported receipts Of 27 cars, with local receipts Of 59 cars, l contract. made total receipts for the three points of 336 cars, compared with 4S last week and 490 a year ago.
 Corn ruled extremely dull In the ab- sence of influential news. Near by deiV- cries were hrmer, due to covering by a few scattered shorts line. The weather was a weakening factor, being clear and cold throughout the West May was 5 higher at the close at S5 1-2 after selling between 4s 1-4a4s 3-s and 43 1-2. Local re- ceipts 25s cars. contract grade.
 Oats ruled steady with only light trade and there was little change in prices The cash situation was again a bull factor and traders were largely on the bull side. May closed unchanged al s4 after ranging between B 7-s and 34 k Receipts 172 cars.
 Provisions were stronger at the opening influenced by a light run of hogs and higher prices at the yards Packers were not as active buyers as they had been

changes in the statement were unimport- ant in their effect on the total. Loans fell of $5ss 800 and deposits by reason of the decrease in cash cont acted sl so2 4oo. The decrease of $1,544 800 in reserve brought the excess over legal require- ments to $654s. 200. the lowest figure reached since October IS. last The state- ment considered generally must be re- garded as unfavorable. Still year ago the surplus reserve was only . little more than Sl ,0o0. GOO above the present total ana within five weeks the surplus reserve had risen above s26, ,ooo, GOO. The prevailing high rates for money will prooaoly nave an early influence in attracting money fro mthe interior. The enormous Jan uary disbursements. aggregating between sl32. GOO GOO and s135. 900 900. will have some disturbing effect, although this Is already In evidence and will disappear within the next two weeks.

New York. Dec. 27-The Financier says; There is wids variance between the nubIishAd figures of the New YorK As- socioted hanks for the week ending De. cember 2 and the known moNeme IS money covering the past five days husl' ness. According to the otilclal sIaIe ment. the banks lost $2 020 GOO in caso. snecic decreasing s 23430O and legal ten der increasing S1 902 400 The un m "a preIiminary estimate of the movement of money for the week made the cash in over 500 O00. the clearing house institu- lion having lost S770324 to the interior and gained S1 O7l 010 from treasury opera lions and receipts of new gold. It Is dit- fcult to explain this disc-epancY. al though 1t is highly probable that the shipments of money to the interior whlch aggregated nearly $e25O GOO aga'nst 1e- cejpts of about B 5e0000 are ref ct q Tn Inc average system to the disadva ntage of the banks. The shipments 10 the south were unsuallv large, owing to op ratio7s in cotton. The season has arrived. how ever when ren1ittances from the interior may be expected to ircreasa. It is also trrc that the trust companies of New York must file Lheir sHrni-a 7nual reports next Wednesday and since some of these irstitutions like to make T good showl0g z of cash in their vault, their balances i1 banks may have been drawn upon foH temporarv purposes. It is usually 'hH case that money flows rapidly into b7nks following Christmas local trade. but 1T this has occurred within the past day ar two other movements have quite coun- teracted it.
