TALK OF GOLD in IRELAND
Alleged Discovery of Ore by Man
who IL y yeIOpinE the
Mine.

DUBLIN, July z.--(Specal Cablegram to
The Bee "A great deal of interest has been
aroused recently by the rumors and reports
of the discovery OF a gold mine in Ireland
which, its owners stair is every bit as rich
as any in South Africa. They claim that 1t
will yield about two ounces Of gold to the
ton. Great secrecy is being thrown around
the locality in whichethe alleged Irish gold
mine is said to have been discovered.
The announcement of it's existence was
first made by Seaton F. Milligan at recent
meeting Of the Royal Society of Antiquaries
had discovered the mine in the north of Ire
land and that the machinery for working II
was ready. Mr.. Milligan refused to be in
terviewed regarding the locality of the
mine. but the announcement naturally
aroused vast amount OF interest. One re-
port has 1t that the mining operations are
being carried on near Balyroney, a small
town In the west OF County Down. near the
Mourne mountains. According TO the story
while boring operations for we'll were
being carried on an extraordinary class OF
clay was met with. A sample of this clay
was submitted to an American expert. He
made an analysis and announced that the
clay contained both gold and silver in pay.
Ing quantities. So far. it is said only sur.
face mining has been done, twenty feet
being the greatest depth reached. It is not
known how deep the lode extends. Accord
ing to the experts some Of the South Afri
can mines are worked proitably with ar
output of three-uuarters of an ounce pei
ton, while some OF the Alaskan mines aver.
age only three-pennyweight to the ton.

INDIANS ATTRACT BRITISH
Head of Canadian IrOquOis Celebrates
His silver wedding Anniver-
sRry In London.

LONDON, July 29.-(Special Cablegram to
The Bee)-Scarface. the Iroquois chief from
eastern Canada, who is the patriarch of the
Indian village at Earlscourt exhibition
celebrated his silver wedding this week ac-
cording to the Indian custom on the Thir-
tieth anniversary. The whole Indian popu-
lation, representing several nations, all in
feathers and war paint assembled in the
rallied space at the top of the village. and
there solemnly went through an abbrevia-
ted form of the actual marriage ceremony
which took place thirty years ago. For half
an hour or more the chiefs harangued the
squatting braves and squaws, and all sang
curious old Indian songs, and the chiefs
and the braves danced a war dance, with
whirling tomahawks and knives
After Scarface had finished wooing his
bride in song, Mrs. Scarface, who blushed
like a real bride, was carried out from the
wigwam where she had been hiding, and
sat on the ground, back to back with her
wooer, while all the nations declared them
man and wife for ever and ever, with no
appeal to the divorce court. Then. amid
warwhoops and ear-piercIng yells in
marched braves bearing poles over their
shoulders from which were slung various
presents offered to scarface in memory of
the event Their manager gave a silver
tea set for Mrs. ScaTfaces log cabin side
table The Indians themselves gave Scar
face silver crucifx, and the directors OF
Earlscourt gave loving cup.

Order Secured from Judge
Munger of Federal Court,
ApERs SERVED lust BEFORE MIDNIGHT
Special Train Run Up From Lincoln with
Men and Material,
READY FOR PUTTING DOWN TRACK TODAY
Union Paciac OmciRIs on Duty All
Night watching the situation,
but at Late Hour BurIinE-
ton Makes No Move.

The Burlington made an attempt last
night to steal a march on the Union Pa
citic, but I'm some manner the plans mis-
carried The Burlington had made all
preparations to take snap judgment and
lay tracks on Ninth street, the use of
which from Jones northward had been
granted to the Union Pacific by the city
council. For this purpose it sent large
gang of men and material up from Lincoln
under the command of Division Superin-
tendent Bignell, intending to lay tracks on
the street after midnight, when 1t would
be impossible to secure court order or
other legal process which would stop the
work.
The Union Pacific people in some manner
got wind of the scheme and before the
big clock on the postoffice had toled the
hour which marked the advent Of Sunday
had secured temporary injunction from
Judge Munger of the federal court, the
United States marshal's force was hustled
out and the order served upon Mr.. Bignen
and several other officers of the Burling-
ton.
The Burlington men came up on spe-
cial train and 1t carried sufficient material
and men to have put down trackage the
entire length of the street before Monday
morning had not the order of court been
secured.
1t had been anticipated that the Burling-
ton would not sit quietly by and see a
rival secure possession of the valuable
trackage rights if it was possible to pre-
vent it, and from the fact that the move
was 50 promptly detected the Union Pa
cific was likely anticipating just what die
happen.
At an early hour this morning the Bur
lington officials were in conference de-
Gliding what they would d, but had made
no move to put down trackage in defiance
of the court order.
The Union Pacific officials were in ses
sion at headquarters and had men ou
watching every move made by their oppo
nent.

NO DELAY IN LAYING TRACKS
Union Pacific VIII Get to work ON
Ninth street soon as
Possible.

There will be no unnecessary or undue
delay in this work. is the word that comes
from Union Pacific headquarters regarding
the laying of the Ninth street tracks pro-
vided for in the ordinance which passed the
council and was signed by the mayor.
AS has been stated in The Bee all sur
veys, plans and blue prints are made and
as soon as the customary routine of work
can be disposed of this track will be laid.
The Union Pacific is anxious, as General
Manager Mohler has said, to have these
tracks down. thus giving to Omaha tre-
mendous advantage in building up the
wholesale interests which naturally belong
in the district traversed by and adjacent
to these prospective tracks
The track will come up Jones street to
Seventh, thence west on Seventh to Ninth
and north on Ninth as far as Capitol ave-
nue. for the present and further north later
on. The plans made by Chief Engineer
Berry call for a double track from Jones
to Farnam street on Ninth and from there
north to Capitol avenue single tracks. They
contemplate the ultimate transformation
of the red-light precincts into part of the
wholesale district. When this is accom-
plished 1t is planned to extend the track
on west from Ninth and Capitol to Twelfth
street, connecting with the Illinois Central,
thus forming a powerful nucleus for net
work of tracks within the wholesale dis
trict. BY a similar process Portland S
iobbing interests have been tremendously
augmented and the bulk of credit has long
ago been attributed TO A. L. Mohler, who
came to Omaha from that city.
There is no surer way to build up the
business interests Of a city, says Mr.,
Mohler. "and while Omaha is making such
rapid strides commercially 1t is a good time
to apply this method"
II think that Tenth street is the natural
dividing line between the heavy jobbers
and the retail district. l did think at one
time that the street cars should be run
down Twelfth or Thirteenth street, so that
the railroad tracks could be run UP the
| alleys, but Tenth street Is the natural
route to the two big depots over the Via
| duct and should always remain as such, D
says Mr.. Mohler.

AUSTRIA MAY HAVE A WAR
Steps Taken to COerce Hungary
should IL Try to Secede
from Union.

VIENNA, July 29.-(Special Cablegram to
The Bee.)-The aged emperor of Austria
evidently does not propose to be caught
mapping like the aged king of Sweden.
There has been so much talk regarding
the possible peaceable separation of Hun
gary, Austria playing the part OF Sweden.
Hungary the part of Norway, that the
ruler of the dual kingdoms has apparently
decided to put a stopito it, and is prepar-
ing to show the people of Hungary that
any attempt 81 secession will be put down
with the sword.
The Aildeuts,h he tsflatt of Vienna Is
authority for the statement that the milf
tary authorities of Austria are preparing
for the eventuality of campaign against
Hungary, should that country continue its
resistance to the emperor.
The news is correct. AT the command of
the heir to the throne. the Archduke Fran
els Ferdinand, who represents the emperor
in the supreme command of the army, mill
itary preparations are already being taken
with a view to adopting forcible measures
should Hungary secede or declare it's in
tention to do so in open Parliament.
AS it was feared that Hungary might
take this step the Hungarian Parliament
on the day of its opening was adjourned to
September 10.
The struggle between the Hungarian au-
thorities and the municipalities is becom-
ing acute and threatens serious mischief, no
matter what may be the ultimate settle
ment of the difficulties between Hungary
and Austria. Fourteen Cities some of them
the most prominent. have declared that
they Will pay no taxes, and will raise no
recruits until the government that has the
confidence of the majority is elected EN-
peror Francis Joseph shows no signs OF
giving way.

INDIA CRlTlCIZES BR0DRlCK
Thinks Secretary Has Failed 60
Treat Lord CurEOn In Proper
Manner.

SIMLA, India, July 2s.-(special Cable
gram to The Bee)-The newspapers of
India continue to criticise Mr. Brodricks s
dispatch to the viceroy regarding the
change in the position and duties of the
commander-in-ohief and the military mem
Der of the council In tones strongly an
tagonistic t. the secretary of state Con-
cerning the report of the threatened
resignation of the viceroy the Times of
India summarizes as follows;
The sition concerning the threatened
res OF the vtceroy is aggravated
J. - : of the dispatch of the secretary
~, 1t contained no indication of a
- TO smooth over existing differences
" opinion, and no trace of willingness to
omit that there was something to be
said for the view of the government OF
India. Mr.. Brodrick seems to have
gloated over the chance of thrusting con-
temptuously aside the reasoned and weighty
opinions of the whole of the chief admins
commander-in-chief, Or, rather, he APP
pears to have gloTied in emphasizing the
severity OF the blow II 1t Is felt tnat
only one chance of procedure 1t is not to
be wondered at.
Yet If Lord Curzon cherished the inten-
tion ascribed to him we trust he will re-
consider the question. First and last,
India has spelt for him simple duty.
However calling the situation, is it not his
duty to persevere with such strength as
may be given to him? By remaining at
mis- post ne Will serve India best, and
create an impression which will write It,
self indellibly upon the hearts of the peo-
pie of India and ultimately upon that of
Great Britain. Also, time is on his side,
the whole civil administration of the coun-
try is at one on this question. He has the
answering support Of the whole of his ad-
ministrative colleagues and practically the
whole of the press, both European and
native, unite in protesting against the
surrender of the Indian =. empire to
a military dictatorship; It is Sleraby cer-
tain that the great and powerful weight
of the unofficial communities will be
thrown into the same side of the scale.
Lord Kitchener comes to India with
preconceived ideas, knowing little of its
history and tradition, of the character OF
its people and fighting races, Of the prin-
ciples underlying its system of control, and
from those ideas he has never seriously
swerVed. The whole scheme appears tC
be based upon the assumption that India
exists for the army, whereas, 1t ought tC
be the cardinal principle of our rule that
the army exists for India. 1t has gained
acceptance, not because the principles upor
which 1t Is based commend themselves tc
sound and prudent craftsmanship, but be.
cause there loomed behind it the towering
figure of its author.

nav PRISON PLAN A SUCCESS
Gratifying Results Follow Attempt TO
Reform Youthful Criminals I'm
Great Britain.

LONDON, July 2s.-CSpecial Cablegram to
The Bee.)-so gratifying have been the re-
suits of the experiment with young Grim
inals at Borstal prison that II is understood
the system will soon be extended all over
England. The essential feature of this
method of treatment is that up to a certain
age every person may be regarded as not
beyond cure, and that the state should try
TO convert him into a good citizen. The
success already achieved has been due in
large measure to the work of the Borstal
association.
Mr. Akern Douglas, in an interview, ex-
planning the methods Of the system, said;
''Of the seventy-six prisoners released
from Borstal last year, thirty-six are in
employment, ten unemployed, half through
slackness of trade. two in hospital and
nineteen have been reconvicted Consid-
ering the material. this record is good, for
only six of the young men were first Of
tenders. From the experience gained both
inside and outside the prison l have no
hesitation in saying that the Borstal sys-
tenn is an immense Improvement upon any
thing that has been previously tried in this
country. In many cases the discharged
prisoner is hardly recognized as the same
young criminal who received the sentence.
The habits OF industry acquired in the
workshops around the farm, the improve
ment in intelligence and physique are OF
incalculable advantage. But in order that
| these benefits may be reaped to the full a
| change in the criminal law is necessary-a
| change which will enable courts of Justice
| to commit a young offender to Borstal fol-
a long period with power of discharge or
| license. This would be the saving of many
a lad and applies especially to offenders
| of the coster or newspaper selling class. il
| is from this class that our failures are
| chiefly drawn. The time OF detention is mo-
| long enough to enable them to learn trade
and to forget the attractions Of life in the
