The width of the pay streak, 80 far, has moi vet been determined. Reports as 10 the width Of the pay streak On Pedro have been exag- gerated. On Gold stream, which Is form ed by the junction of Pedro and Gilmore eresks, the pay dirt seems to pan better than on Pedro. On No. below discovery, owned by Dan Mccarthy, saw two pans banned, one yielding I7H cents and the other 34 cents. saw the dlrt taken from the dump beside the shaft On this claim four holes gre sunk In a straight line and the owners claim pay ln all four holes, leaving an exposed pay streak, to all Ap- psarsnces, 225 feet wide and the limit of the pay not vet determined on either side. The gold bearing gravel on this claim Is between four and five feet. The ground Is frozen and think the average depth to bedrock Is about 20 feet. Four more pans were taken on this claim during my sb- ssnee on the next claim, No. 6 below, which the parties told ne averaged 3I cents, and which believe 10 be true. On No. 6 below on Gold stream banned one pan from the dump which yielded 10 cents; two other pans from the bottom Of the shaft, taken by myself, yielded not over a cent or two; but the man In charge told me before would find no gold. On N,. 8 below discovery, on Gold stream. Mr. Pedro aLd myself by scratching In the dump for few minutes, pick up one 2s- cent and tns Io.eent nugget.

REQUESTED TO EXPLAIN.
The War Department Asks Gen. Baldwin
II He Is Correctly Quoted In His Re-
marks ON Filipinos and Negroes.

Washington, April 15.-The war de-
partment has taken official cogni-
zance of the reported statements OF
Gen. Frank ID. Baldwin, commander
of the department of the Colorado,
in disparagement of the Filipinos
and negroes as soldiers, and Secre-
tary Root yesterday directed that
formal inquiry be addressed to Gen.
Baldwin, asking whether or not he
had been correctly quoted. Pending
q reply no action will be taken by the
department. Gen. Baldwin is fresh
from the Philippines and has just
assumed command of the department
of the Colorado. The alleged re-
marks which he is reported to have
made were to the effect that one OF
his reasons for liking the Filipino as
n soldier was the same that gave
him u preference for the negro in
the same capacity-that in fight he
was not worried about his safety.
as it did not make any difference
whether he got killed or not.

Missouri Senator Tells the 81. Louis Grand
Jury About Alum Legislation To
Indict Several Senators.

St. Louis, April 15.-United States
Senator Stone was before the grand
Jury one hour and 90 minutes and
when he came from the jury room he
said:
II think my testimony will be OF
no value in prosecuting any Doodle
charge. My inclination would be
that my testimony be made public.
If the grand jury could authorize it
I would be glad that the stenog-
rapher make a transcript and have
it published Mt my expense. After
this is over I will make full state
ment upon these matters"
1t is known to a certainty that sew
eral state senators will be indicted
this week. Indeed, it is asserted
that one already has been indicted ut
Jefferson City and one in this city.
Most of the indictments are expected
to come from the Jefferson City
body, the local grand jury serving
merely as auxiliary to that body.
The majority of the boodling opera
tons naturally took place in Jeffer-
son City. Much of the proof is to
be found in this city. where the
boodlers found they could spend their
Doodle to greater advantage than in
Jefferson City.

witnesses before the grand jury yes
terday were Senator's schoenlaub'
Collins and Sartorius. of st. Louis,
and Former Senator Haynes, OF St.

learned regarding the nature OF their

ator Collins was asked to explain

PLAYED in St. Louis soon after the

from Cornelius, Jr.

Newport, Il. l., April 15.-The we'd
ding of Reginald C. Vanderbilt, OF
New York, che youngest son of the
late Cornelius Vanderbilt, and Miss
cCathleen G. Nelson, also of New
York, which occurred at "Arleigh"
at noon Tuesday, was brilliant as
well an an early beginning of the
social season of 1903 ut Newport. AS
the marriage took place in q private
villa, it lacked much of the splendor
which usually attends church func-
ton. About $50 guests, nearly all
from New York, were present. 1t
was q white wedding. The decora-
tons were white on background OF
green, the bridesmaids were gowned
in white with white picture hats; the
bridegroom, his best man and the
,ushers wore white puff cravats and
white boutonnieres and the bride, OF
course, was attired in the purest
white. The weather sulked and in
stead of sparkling spring day II
was gray and cold, with n misty
northeast wind blowing from the sea.
Rev. Father Meenan, of the Catholic
church. officiated.
The bride was gowned in heavy
white silk with costly veil of rare
lace flowing back from the crown OF
her head to the end Of the train.
Around her throat was tightly
sclasped serpent necklace of rarest
pearls, the gift of the bridegroom.
Among the things that were COM
mented upon among the wedding
guests was the absence of gift from
Cornelius Vanderbilt, jr., whose
fortune and place were given to his
brother, Alfred G. Vanderbilt, be-
cause Cornelius dared to marry the
girl he loved, Miss Grace Wilson.
