UNITED STATES BONDS.
The Secretary Of the Treasury Announces
That He viii Discontinue Their Per-
chase for the Present.

Washington, March 15.-The sec.
Rotary OF the treasury has an
nounced that he will discontinue for
the present the purchase Of United
States bonds of the five per cent.
loan OF 1904, the four per cent.
funded loan Of 1907, the three per
cent. loan Of l0OS-1o1S and tho four
per cent. loan Of 1925, such discon-
tinuance to take effect at the close
OF business to-day. The secretary
believes that the price Of bonds is
unrsasonably high and that the ef-
feet Of the government being per-
mansntly in the market stimulates
and helps to maintain this price, to
the prejudice of national bank circu-
lation. Banks are said to be retir-
ing circulation as rapidly as posi-
BILE, presumably for the purpose Of
selling the bonds now on deposit at
present prices, or for the purpose
of using them with the treasury as
security for government deposits.
In making government deposits the
secretary is disposed to discriminate
in favor of such banks as maintain
their circulation, and by these two
he hopes to overcome the
tendency to retire bank circulation,

While the Pensacola was at Manila
in 1887, a number of sailors who had
gone ashore on leave became engaged
in a street brawl An alarm was
turned in, but the sailors escaped to
the ship. The next morning the Span
lsh captain Of the port visited the
Pensacola to complain TO Captain
Dewey of the action of his sailors.
What can do?" asked Dewey.
why, your men raised a riot on
shore, and you can assist me In ar
resting and Furnishing them" replied
the Spaniard.
Dewey courteOusly expressed his re.
greet that sailors of the Pensacola
should be lawless while on shore
leave. but could see no way in which
he might assist his visitor in search
ing out the guilty ones.
The reply of Dewey angcred the
port captain, and he said peremptor-
lily;
You certainly can parade your
crew before me, in order that the riot
ers may be identified"
Looking aloft and pointing to the
Stars and Stripes waving at the mast
head, Dewey made reply:
'Thc deck of this vessel Is United
States territory, and Ill parade my
men for no foreigners that ever drew
breath"

stolen Altar Jewels Returned.

New York, March 15.-It was
learned yesterday afternoon at the
Cathedral Of St. John the Divine
that the Jewels stolen from the
cathedral crypt about two weeks ago
had been returned. The Jewels,
which consisted OF seven garnsts set
in the crown Of the altar, together
with several ornaments Of mother of
pearl, We're inclosed in an envelope
without any note of explanation. The
return of the Jewels is thought to
have been prompted by fear of arrest
due to the publicity which the rob-
berry has had.

COURT ON WHEELS
Judge Cant of the District Court Holds
Session Here Monday.

Monday afternoon at 2 o'clock.
Deputy Sheriff F. L. Magic called the,
adjourned session of the District
court to order at the municipal court
room at the city hall, for the purpose
of issuing final citizenship papers to
those prepared to receive them.
Judge Cant had charge of the ses-
sion and accompanying him were
Clerk of the Court j. P. Johnson and
Clerks II. Leidel and t. D. Tindolph
and Deputy Sheriffs Magic and II. N.
Randall
The court was not as busy as on
former trips, total of thirty-eight
citizens being made. Quite number
of prospective Americans were disap-
pointed inasmuch as they had secured
their first papers in July 1900, and
were therefore ineligible for second
papers by about month. The law
says that declaratory papers must be
had two years before final papers can
issue with total Of five years resi-
dence in the country.
Twayears ago on the trip to this
city, the court issued nearly 200 final
papers. The business in the other
range towns it is expected to he much
larger than in Ely. The Mesaba
towns in particular are expected to
show up goodly number. The court
left here on Tuesday morning for
Tower where they stayed until noon
after which they left for the Mesaba
range.
With the court also came a desire
on the part Of many OF our people TO
have first papers and in consequence
Deputy Clerk Schaefer issued 20 TO
prospective Americans. First papers
can be secured here at any time.

Heitfeld, James H. Hawley and

situation in the democratic party of
the state by eliminating the fac

The question of whether Governor
Hunt, Frank Martin or some other
individual is nominated for governor
is not SO important as party har-
mony and Steunenberg's announce

a better party feeling. The uncer-
tain element of the situation is the
fact that men often change their
minds, especially in politics.
