proved that the benefit OF the proposed
reduction in duty would go to the Gu
bans he would support the measure,
and there would be harmony all around
But he maintains that the Cuban
sugar planter will not get more for his
sugar. the American consumer will not
get his sugar more eheapIy, and he
sees no other place for the profit to go
than into the treasury OF the sugar
trust. This is the bone OF contention
from his point Of view. The other beet
sugar men are reticent in expressing
their opinions. The Administration Sen

Mr. Elkins Makes an Explanation.
Senator Elkins said today regarding
his measure for The admission Of Cuba
TO the Union
This Is purely my measure. I have
consulted with none Of my colleagues
and with 40 one regarding It. I am
very much in earnest IN the matter. and
believe that the annexation of the
island would be The best possible solu-
ton of the Cuban problem.
II the United States IS to spend $50. -

legislation for the sugar trust under
any such name.

Value Of Meeting.
The chief value Of the meet.rg, it is

on the part Of The railroaders toward

WHITE GOLD MINE
Development Shows Wider Ore Veins
 and Better Values.

Leonard White is in the city from the property of the White Gold Mining company on the Hassayampa, above Wickenburg. He reports development work as progressing nicely. The prop erty looks better every day.
 The original tunnel on the west side on which the most work has been done was driven in lS5 feet and then work stopped as the air was not good all though the ore body was widening and seemingly increasing in value. An other tunnel was then situated on parallel vein q short distance to the north. and about sixty feet lower down on the mountain, in fact not far above the level of the river bed, for during the recent rise the water came within eight feet of the mouth of the tunnel
 This tunnel is now in ninety feet the vein being four feet wide and assaying well. A large piece of the ore brought down by MT. White is on exhibition in the wiadow of Weirick & Latham's office. An assorted sample taken from this big piece was assayed on Saturday and showed q return of $43. 40 in gold.
 It is the intention of the company to run this latest drift in some distance further and then run an upraise to the old drift. thus making good air in both tunnels. It is probable also that a winZe will be sunk to determine the character of the ore at greater depth.

Not long after his arrival at Fort Gibson he married Tahlihina Rogers. a very beautiful Cherokee maiden, with whom he lived until his departure for the war In Texas in 1882. What followed, is a matter of history. Houston joined a band of pat riots who were struggling for the inde- pendence of Texas. became their gen eral, defeated the Mexican armies, won the independence of Texas, and was its first governor, married again and raised a family. One of his sons, Tenn pie Houston. is citizen of Okiah homa.
 His Cherokee wife, whom he left. lived for a time after his departure at Fort Gibson and then removed to q romantic spot on the Arkansas river, called Wilson's Rock, where she died, 1t is said, of a broken heart. The place of her burial had been disputed until about nine years ago, when the writer of this sketch. then editor of the Null drow Register and an ex-Confederate soldier of Fort Smith named George Williamson, with assistance of Judge William Wilson, after whom the place was named, located the grave Will
  retreat after the disastrous battle of Pea Ridge or Elkhorn, in Benton coun- ly, Arkansas. and crossed the Arkansas river at Wilson's Rock on his way to Texas He then saw the grave of Sam Houstons Cherokee wife, and remem- bered its location near a cedar tree. After considerable clearing the grave was found and identified by MT. Will ,A ho1 ,Nln ,a-fn ell, h at its head and foot. The writer in- l scribed some lines and left an inscrip ton as follows: "Tahlitina, Cherokee wife of General Sam Houston, the nb- orator of Texas"
