GOV. EMINENT GETS
 7PER CENT PROFIT.

The recent rise in bar silver and the immense demand for pesos for the Orient has proved a good thing for the Mexican government. Of the s10 900 900 of reserve, which the cur rency commission had put by for the change to a gold basis it had sold s4, 700, 900 up to last week at profit over the cost of per cent, taking it's pay in American and English gold. This gold is to be reminted in Mex ican gold coin, so it is said, thus in-
 dicating that the government is plan ming some measure of starting a gold circulation in the country.
 This imense sale of pesos ac- counts for the three or four or more
 car loads of pesos which the Mexican Central has hauled through this city
 during the past two weeks
 | Pesos have actually sold at pre- mium of a fraction during the past tew days. Exchange has been main tained by cooperation of the govern ment and the banks and been kept
 at par for the large drafts, that is two for one, and with fractional premium for small ones.

CALIFORNIA MINERS
 TO BE REPRESENTED
". [. RaIStOn of California Coming tO Attend the
 Arizona Meeting
(Phoenix Gazette.)

It will be good news to the miners of the territory, and particularly 10 those who are interested in the com ing miners convention and the CT ganization of an Arizona Miners Asso- eiations to know that W. c. Ralston, the father of the California Miners association and the present president of that organization. intends coming to Phoenix on the 18th of this month to be present at the Arizona conyen- tion.
 MT. Ralston's aid and advice in the organization of the Arizona associa- tion will be invaluable as it is great ly owing to his able management and judgment that the coast states asso- citation has attained to it's present place of prominence and usefulness. He can steer us away from many pit falls, owing to his experience. and his suggestions can not help but be of great benefit to us.
 The Gazette continues to receive many letters daily commenting the movement for the miners association. The communications, many of them, are of a personal nature and not in tended for publication However, the writers without exception are all enthusiastic over the project, and be- speak its success and promise their undivided support

l see from a clipping from the Ga zette, which has been sent me, a call for convention of Arizona miners, to be held in Phoenix during fair week, in which l heartily concur. 1 know of nothing that would advance the interests of mining in this terri tory, so well as a miners association, composed of all classes engaged in mining. from the prospector to the mine owner. Mining being the chief industry of this territory, and it being one of the richest mining sections of the west; ranking now as the third in the production of copper, with two of the biggest copper mines in the Unit ed States. to say nothing of it's gold and silver production.
 The far-reaching results of a state miners association is to be seen in our sister state upon the west, Califor- mia, where such an institution has been fostered for years, and the re suit of which is that California, as a mining state, is at the front and is in creasing her mineral output every year.
 It will be observed that at the American Mining congresses, the Cali fornia delegates, who are generally chosen from the Miners association of that state. are the best informed delegates of that body in regard tC mining, and that they have the min eral history of their state upon thei tongues end, clearly in hand, all O which is attributable to their thor ough state organization.
 I think I am safe in saying that al | classes engaged in mining in this sec Il iion of the territory, will lend thei | encouragement and assistance to tn formation and fostering of such an oI ganization as the Arizona Miners As sociation. Yours truly,
 H. L. PICKETT.

I beg to acknoyledge receipt of your clipping from the Gazette, and l herewith concur with the movement looking to the organization of an Ari- zona miners association. and I look upon the movement as one calculated to be of indispensable value to the mine owner, prospector, and to the territory at large, as doubtless the tendency will be to eradicate the many wildcat schemes that have in the past been a detriment to our ter ritory, and by this means it will elim- mate illegitimate mining sPeculations and when it has the endorsement ef the miners association. In my mind, the association can be of. incalculable good to the mining interests of our territory. Yours truly,

VIEWS OF DIPLOMATS.
Fear of Outside Interference May Tend
to Bring About Peace.

There was an unusual influx of represen@
tatives of foreign countries even for dip
lomatic day, at the State Department to-
day, and it appeared that many of them
called upon Secretary Hay primarily to Sc
cure any information he might have re-
specting the foundation for the revival of
talk of peace negotiations. The Russian
ambassador was an early caller. but the
japanese minister was absent, being out
of town on pleasure trip.
The Secretary had nothing new to COM
municate to his callers. for such nforma-
tion as he has himself received from the
departments agentssfaled to indicate that
the time has yet arrived for any change in
the attitude of the government Of the
United States toward the belligerents nor
was there evidence that the European gov
ernments nave been doing more than to
take careful Soundings to test the real SEN
timents of the bellgerents with the result
that they also are satisfied that the oppor-
tune moment has not arrived for the eXer-
else of pressure in the direction of peace,
even in the most friendly and amicabie
spirit.
In the opinion of conservative members
of the diplomatic body here the revival of
the peace movement, though not sufficient
ly strong at this moment to br1ng about
tangible results, has actually been bene-
fetal and may be regarded as marking one
of the initial steps which must be taken
before Il treaty OF peace Is HndIly Tedcncu.
Every such movement brings the principals
perhaps uncOnsciously slightly nearer. and
it is pointed out the most significant
and pr omising fact that the talk of peace is
now tolerated where ii would have been
secuted a month ago by the principals in
the great struggle now in progress. 1t is
also suggested that perhaps some of the
Indignation exhibited i.l the mere talk of
peace is really to be ascribed to IA deep
seated fear on the part of both principals
that it may mean the Intervention of third
parties in the peace settlement
1t is known that at present such inter
vention is dreaded by both Russia and
Japan, where it contains the slightest sus-
gestion of profit likely to result 10 the third
party from participation in the settlement
They are understood to be determined 10
make peace between themselves If they
can, when the time comes. and to afford
no possible preteXt for intermeddling by
other powers that might result, as have
other. movements of that kind, in beneht
to the outside powers, at the direct cX-
pense of the beiligerents, who would be
deprived Of the fruits of war.
The existence of that feeling on the part
of both bellgerents has, 1t Is believed
done much to restrain international coop
Grafton toward securing peace, but the very
dread with which Russia and Japan look
upon any projected international confer
ence such as that which followed the
Turko- Russian war, may, 1t is DeleVeu,
make for peace through direct negotiations
between the principals.

TAKEN FROM VIRGINIA MINE.
Remains of Entombed Hen Brought to
the Surface

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. February 2i.-
Eigh,y-three bodies OF victims of Mondays
explosion have been taken from the Viz
ginia mine. Seven more are in sight, and
after they are removed active rescue work
viii cease and the work of pumping out
the water in the flooded portion of the mine
Will begin. II has been found impossible
to recover the bodies of the men in the
flooded part Of the mine until the water is
removed. 1t will probably be the middle Of
next week before the pumping work can be
completed President Flynn of the United
Mine Workers has wired for more men TO
assist in this work. Horrible odors pervade
the entire mine anG disinfectants have to
be used literally to enable the rescuers to
work. The funerals of scores of victims
took place today at Virginia and nearby
mining camps where the dead men resided.
Acting Governor Cunningham has ordered
a rigid investigation into the cause of the
disaster.

The Senate committee on the Philippines
today authorized favorable report on the
House bill revising and amending the tariff
laws of the Philippine Islands. The com
mittee was in session only a short time and
this was occupied wholly by Secretary of
War Taft, who discussed features of the

Only one amendment was made to the bill
as 1t passed the House. The provision pro-
hbiting license system with a view to de-
irving revenue from traffic in opium has
been stricken out. In its place has been
substituted provision that after March 1,
1893. it shall be unlawful to import into the
Philippine Islands opium, in whatever form.
except by the government, and for medici-
nal purposes only. and at no time shall il be
lawful TO sell opium to any native of the

poses"

THE TOBACCO TRUST.
Resolution Of Investigation Introduc-
ed in the House.

Representative kehoe of Kentucky intro
duced in the House today a resolution di-
recting immediate investigation of the
tobacco trust by the Department of Com
merce and Labor. Mr.. kehoes resolution
follows:
Resolved. That the Secretary of Com
merce and Labor is hereby requested to in
vestigate the causes of the low price of
leaf tobacco in the United States and es-
pecially in Kentucky, Ohio and Tennessee
and ascertain what has caused the fall in
the price of leaf tobacco in those states and
the increase during the same period in the
price of manufactured articles made from
that leaf tobacco, and whether the condi-
tions have resulted in whole or in part from
the operations of a trust or conspiracy in
restraint of trade.
The resolution also directs the Secretary
to ascertain whether the operations of such
a trust have interfered with the operations
of independent growers of leaf tobacco or
growers associations, and to report also
on the management capitalization and
profit of the tobacco trust. According to
the resolution the information may be used
by Congress as basis of legislation or by
the Department of Justice as the basis for
criminal proceedings

BEEF TRUST INQUIRY
REPORT WILL REACH PRESIDENT
BEFORE ADJOURNMENT.

Commissioner Garfield of the bureau Of
corporations said today tnat ne expected
to have his report OF the investigations Of
the methods of the so-cal. ed beef trust,
called for ty the Martin resolution, fin
ished and in the hands of the President
before the adjournment of the present seS-
sion of Congress.
There have been no new developments
presented since the mplet!0n OF the Work
of the agents of the bureau of corpora
tions, and all that has been done since that
tin has been the necessary clerical work
in getting the figures in shape for intel
lgent comprehension
Five chapters of the immense work have
been completed, and the detailed figures
are now being arranged, so that they may
be simply placed before the reviewing Of
ticer and later sent to Congress for what
ever action that body may direct.
The law provides that the report is 10
be made direct to the President, and leaves
il to the discretion of that officer whether
he make it public or not, or only such
portions of it as he sees fit.
In view of the Importance of the in
quirw it is not thought that any portion
of this report will be withheld from the
public Another week will be necessary
for it's completion. and between that time
and the adjournment of Congress, March
4. the President will have had an oppor-
tunity to read and thoroughly understand
every detail of the great mass of figures
which have been gathered.
In the meantime the commissioner is fin
ishinG the outline of his plans for acting

trust investigation and it is believed that
these will have been SO far completed that
action may be begun within week.

TO CONTINUE THE WAR
Report From Berlin That Car
Has Defined Position.
ADVISED THE KAISER
DETERMINED TO PRESS CONTEST
WITH UTMOST ENERGY.
Considerations That Led to the En-
peror's Decision-Military Situa-
tion Against Peace.
ADVISED THE KAISER

The most important news tlon
abroad today is the cablegram from
Berlin announcing that the car has
advised the German court that he
has elected to continue the war.
In justification of his course he
names several considerations, and
further adds that the military sii:a-
ton, love OF country and arguments
OF expediency ave all against peace
and for pressing the war hopefully.
BERLIN, February %, 1912 p.m.-The
Emperor of Russia has elected to continue
the
His position is absolutely firm and the
German court has been advised in that
sense.
The war Will be pressed with the utmost
energy. the domestic situation being now
within the control of the authorities.
Those who have advised peace and sug-
gested inquiries for Japans terms, the
French and British governments, are for
the present silent and are likely to re-
main so unless events of an extraordinary
character snake the russian emperor res
olution. The considerations that led TO the
emperor's decision understood here, are:
First-The judgment of the chiefs of the
army that Field Marshal Oyama not only
cannot defeat General kuropatkin, but
stands in danger of defeat himself How
cowardy therefore for Russia to ask for
mercy with all the men and money es-
sential to a successful war.
Second-All the forces of criticism now di-
rected against the government for having
fought rather than yielded to legitimate in
tereSts and for having failed to win vic
tories would be continued with added fury
against the government that accepted war
and then betrayed the country. A govern
ment that would crave peace of RusSia's
enemy while still capable of winning victory
would be giving the party of change genu-
inc grounds for revolution.
The facts OF the military situation, love of
country and arguments of eXpediency were
all against peace and for pressing the
hopefully.
