that time until the end of the season,
the shipment of lumber will be steady.

Duluth, Mimi, June 10.-C. E. Seelye,
who has charge of the Helen mine of
the Lake Superior corporation, in Michi-
picoten, has changed conditions there
materially. He has accumulated large
stockpile, which steam shovel has
been working into for two weeks. But
for shortage of machine men, the
mine would be hosting more ore than
1t is, but the years product will be bet
ter than 100000 tons. The ore produce
has been improving recently and is run
ming much better than two years ago.
June shipments of ore from the upper
lake ports will amount to more than
100000 gross tons. Most mining men
look for a scarcity of labor later in
the year, for the demands are many, and
from all sides. Operators are trying to
improve conditions by getting new men
in, but they are not the best, and are
of no use in mines where skilled labor
is needed. Shipments are, therefore,
being rushed as fast as possible early
to make up for any deficiency later.
Two steel ships have been launched
this week that are good for from $4,000
to $4,000 tons cargo. These are the
Geary and Perkins, owned by the Uni

other at Superior. They are duplicates
of the Corey, which took as first
cargo, a few days ago, the immense ton
mage of Is, 443 tons, in addition to 500
tons unexpected weight of water. Two
other large ore carriers, good for 10000
each, were also launched this week at

ISIHMIAN CANAL FUND
Enough on Hand to Keep the Work
 Going Until January.

Washington, Aug. 17.-One of the first important tasks waiting MT Shonts when he assumes the presi- dency of the canal commission is the conservation of the balance remaining of the appropriation of $10,0O0. 900 so as to guard against the stoppage of the work of canal building. Calling to his aid several expert accountants the ex- act state of the finances of the com mission was ascertained, and it was found that the work could be steadily prosecuted until congress at the next session should have ample opportunity to provide more funds. Therefore. the balance cn hand was divided into monthly alIotments, which have so far been closely adhered to save in one case, where an unexpected demand arose for additional transportation fla cilities. Thus the commission has, it believes, avoided the necessity of avail ing itself of the privilege granted by congress of issuing bonds to meet eX- penditures.
 The commission today issued the fol- lowing statement on this point: Tt was officially stated at the isthmian canal commission that of the appro- priation of congress of $1O,0OO. 900 for
 
 on April l. 1905, the date on which the present commission took hold, an available balance to the credit of this appropriation of S7,426.S6S. During the month of April the expenditures from this appropriation aggregated s745,O00; during May. S5O3.O0O; during June, $659,0 during July. S770, ,oOO: for wages, salaries, materials, supplies and equipment
 During July there was an unusual expenditure for the purchase of two ships at $650, 900 each, not included in the July expenditure above. During the month of August. up to and in- cluding the 18th, $25O.000 had been eX- pended. This left to the balance of the appropriation on August. $2,166. 713. in addition to which each of the two dis bursement offices had in hands $500, 900 on that date.
 Tt will be seen from the foregoing that the average expenditure per month, leaving out of consideration the purchase of those two ships. was In the neighborhood of S650. 0.00o and at that rate of expenditure the $2, ,S16,713 will last until early in January, which is according to the schedule fixed by MT.

HALF HUNDRED DROWNDED
Train Went Through a Draw Near
 Norfolk Va.

Norfolk. Va, Aug. 17.-Owing to the inability of Engineer D. l.. Rigg to con- trol his airbrakes, an excursion train from Kinston, N. C., bound to this city, plunged through an open draw over the western branch of the Elizabeth river, eight miles from Norfolk, this afternoon, and half a hundred persons, mostly negroes, were drowned. Up TO a late hour tonight only seven bodies had been recovered from the wreck age. The list of the injured, so far as can be ascertained, numbers nearly 100, though most of these are slightly hurt.
 Among the victims the only white ones were Edward Joliffe, manager of the excursion, and Edward Forbes, who assisted him, both of Greenville N c.
 The train consisting of the engine and six coaches, plunged through an open draw of the bridge at Bruce sta tion, the engine and one coach being completely submerged in about twelve feet of water and the second coach partly submerged. It is difficult at this time to estimate the number of the dead. It is believed that every per son in the first car perished, none having yet been accounted for.
 With the exception of the train crew and the promoters of the excursion all aboard were colered. The engineer fireman and conductor escaped. The specific orders of the road to stop all trains at the bridge whether the draw is open or not, was apparently ignor- ed. The train plunged into the abyss. Both the engineer and fireman dis covered the open draw too late to stop. The air brakes were applied but did not work prOperly

the grand aerie of the F'raternal Order of Eagles. More than an hour was con- sumed in passing the review stand. At the conclusion the grand trustees awarded exquisitely embroidered ban ners to Kansas City aerie for the best marching club and the Old Mexico aerie for the most grotesque uniforms
 The Kansas City club, with 231 members, headed the procession. A startling feature of the parade was the presence of six wagon loads of snow, brought down from off the mountains on the line of the "Moffat" road, from a point sixty miles northwest of Den yer. This snow was distributed among paraders who engaged in snow balling contests with each other and pelted the occupants of the grand stand as they marched by. The grand aerie to- day decided to vote on the presidency tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock.

IT'S DONE AT LAST
The Assessments of the
 Patented Mines Raised
The Vote of the Board was Unan. imous-Reduction of Valuation of Special Car Lines.

The business of raising the assess ments of the patented mines of the territory was disposed of quickly yes terday afternoon. once the board of equalization got at it. General T. '. Wilson of Tucson, whose appointment to succeed Mr. Donau was announced yesterday, arrived on the train from the south and soon after went to the capitol. He resigned his office as member of the Twenty legis- lature from Pima county and took the oath of office as member of the board of equalization.
 The matter of increasing the assess ment of the mines came up early in the afternoon session. AIr. Wood in troduced his resolution of the day be- fore which had been defeated by a tie vote. The resolution had been chang ed in two particulars only. AS offered yesterday it proposed an increase of the assessment in Yuma county of 800 per cent instead of 200 per cent. The resolution was adopted by mani- nous vote.
 A clerical error had been made in the schedule of the day before in that the extensions. of the result of the in crease in, some cases under the head of board valuations. showed merely the Increase, the original county board valuation not having been added
 The following is a list of the coun- ties affected, the per cent of the in crease and the total valuation of tine mines, exclusive of the Improvements. whose assessments under the original resolution were to be increased 100 per cent. The clause in relation to improvements was temporarily Iassed over. it having been decided that Dy reason of a lack of data from the va rious counties the board could nos make a horizontal raise. -Fha- matter was therefore allowed to go over until this morning:

PLEA FOR CHINESE
Before the Portland Trans
 Mississippi Congress
Discrimination Against Them Threat. ent Modification of a Quarter of Century of Commercial Effort.

Portland, Ore. Aug. 1..-That the better classes of Chinese are discrim- mated against to an unwarranted ex- tent, that d less stringent administra- ton of the exclusion law or, if neces- sary, a limited reconstruction is ad- visable, was urged by the speakers on oriental trade at the second days ses- sion of the Trans Mississippi cornmer- cial congress today.
 These ideas were brought out with especial force by Hon. John H. Bar lornbia, and by Theo. B. Wilcox, pres ident of the congress. MT. Wilcox as- serted that it would be better to even admit a limited number of Chinese la borers into the United States to sat isfy China The oriental markets had been developed at an expense of all most quarter of century by manu- lecturers of the Pacific coast whose efforts would be nullified if the boy colt against American products was successful. America is in no position to act in an independent manner sas this country produces nothing that the Chinese want which cannot be ob- tained from other nations," said MT Wilcox.
 MT. Barrett, during the course of his address, emphasized the point that it is not our regulations to prevent the introduction of coolie labor which the Chinese are remonstrating against, but quite the contrary. The boycott is remonstrance because the sons of noblemen, refined and well educa ted gentlemen, are held in the detention quarters by unwise immigration of ficials at our ports of entry for a pc. riod of ten days at a time. and com pelled to herd with the lowest classes of their countrymen during that time.
