that the charge was dynamite and thinks
he will be able to give<more definite in
formation respecting it tomorrow. FraS-
mentS of the covering of the bomb have
been gathered from the scene of the ex-
plosion and are being investigated. Maj.
Burr and Mai. Sylvester conferred about
the matter yesterday. Thus far the mill
tary authorities are under the impression
that the work that of a man who
was not wholly familiar with explosives.
1t is thought by them that the statue
would not have been damaged had the
explosive not been removed from the
fence when it was.
Glad to Be Alive.
George c. Ellis, the colored man who re-
moved the explosive from the fence just
before the explosion occurred, felt that he
had reason to be congratulated when he re-
turned home to his family at 81 Jackson
street northwest last night and related the
story of his experience to his wife. Friends
of the colored man know him as Neal Ellis.
He is employed under Capt. Sewell, who
has charge of the construction of the Army
War College and other buildings upon the
military reservation. He worked on the
new government printing office building
and afterward went to New Jersey to
work. In addition to doing laboring work
on the building he acts as messenger and
Waterman, and sometimes cleans the office
buildings. Ellis realized that the suspicious
thing of the nature of an internal machine.
He saw the smoke coming from the satchel
but was not afraid to face the danger.
When the noise of the explosion had died
away Ellis realized more fully than ever
that his life had been in danger He was
deafened by the conclusion, and said this
morning that he was afraid he had lost his
hearing in one ear.
Work of Police.
Major Sylvester and Captain Boardman
worked on the case last night and wired
the police of other cities to look out for a.
man answering the description furnished
by the driver of the coupe. The police feel
reasonably certain that the man wanted
does not live in this city. About week
ago man answering his description was
at the depot and asked a cabman about the
location of the statue of Frederick the
Great. The police officials think that the
act was that of man from another city
who wanted to get a sensational newspaper
story.
Major Sylvester said he had good reasons
for believing as he does, and expects to
hear from one of his messages at any time
Detectives Muller and CornWell took pos
session of the fragments of the cheap case
in which the explosive was hidden and took
them to police headquarters this afternoon
Besides the fragments of the suit case
there were particles of parafflne paper and
a piece of d cigar box, in which there is a
short piece of candle. 1t is certain that a
powder fuse was used.

[INGTON SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA.

Conductor, Composer, Pianist and
Critic, the fame of Eugene d'Albett
is already immortalized through his
extraordinary career, representing
LIES devotion to the highest mu-
steal ideals.
dAlbert's repeated refusals to
appear in America, Notwithstanding
the largest guarantees ever offered,
lend immense interest to his present
tour OF IS concerts.
Only the principal cities will hear
him. Washington is undoubtedly
most fortunate to entertain him 50
soon after his arrival in America.
d'Albert has the most beautiful
touch of any artist living, and is the
recognized authority on Beethoven's
music. He ranks with Rubinstein
and List
This is in all probability the last
appearance of this great master OF
music in America, and consequently
in Washington. Those who hear
him next Friday with the
Washington Symphony Orchestra,
at the Lafayette, will carry away
with them rich musical recollections
to be treasured as an experience
never to be forgotten.
Many of the leading musical
bodies, including the Boston SYM
phony Orchestra, have arranged to
present d'Albert as soloist. Musical
circles are keenly interested in this
pianist's art, and the leading cities
are putting forth every effort to Sc
cure d'Albert.

Bisbee and Miscellaneous.
Needed for kiininn.

Phelps, Dodge & Co. have come into possession of these railroads because they need them in their mining and smelling operations. They have bought the Fl Paso 6 Northeastern because it gives them a right of way to coal lands in northern New Mexico and in Colorado, which they them selves own and with which they have contracts. They will themselves give the railroad from 10000 to 50,O00 tons of coal tonnage per month. The trans portatiOn of this coal is the prime req son for their purchase.
 There is here the nucleus of new southwestern system. The capital is low, the earning capacity fair the ter ritory rich in coal, lumber and ores. Macaroni wheat grows on the north ern lines. One of the transcontinent- als throws it's traffic over 300 miles of the 900 in the system. The Rock Island contract will in no way be in terfered with by the new control.
 It remains for the Phelps. Dodge & Co syndicate to develop railroad ambition. With their local resources, their capital backing. their low rates and their strong railroad affiliations, the task of creating an important rail road system in the far southwest should not be difficult.

Number of Valuable Privileges Grant ed--New Lead District Is Brought in-Other Notes of Progress in the Mexican State.

June A. Hunt. formerly of this city, but now a storekeeper for w. C.. Greene at Dedrick, was a visitor in the city this week. The most import ant piece of news which he brought was that work was started this week on the actual construction of the wagon road from Temosiachic to Dedrick and Jesus Maria. MT. Hunt said 500 men are wanted at once for this work and he advertised for that number with wages at $1.50 per day.
 J. F. Johnston, the well known Par ral miner, who last week received from the state government a conces- sion to build a smelter at JimeneZ, is interested in a new lead producing section. This section is called Cerro Amargozo. about 40 miles east Of Ortiz station on the Mexican Central railroad. It is reported that he has struck some good ore in this Dos ue April mine in that region.
 MT. Johnston is a firm believer in the fact that the great lead silver belt stretching from the northern line of the state and following gener- ally the line of the Mexican Central railroad has not been properly pros pected and consequently the capa- bilities of that section are vet unde- veloped MT.

 YESTERDAY.
c. & A. Is Down to $o5-Rest of List Also Shows Continued Downward Tendency-Comparative Statement of Prices for Year.
(By Frank J. Graf.)

We beg to call your attention to a tabulated record of the Bonanza Cir cle stocks from June 1 to Dec. 31, 1904, to be published in the Review Sunday. The high and low figure of each stock for the different months is given. Take this little slip and have it somewhere handy, so you can refer to it occasionally. It will be a great help, and a good guide for you for the coming fall and winter. If intending to make purchase of stock either as an investment or a specula- ton, we advise you to watch closely the quotations from day to day, and think that you should make your pur- chase within the next two months.
 The record of last year shows that these two months found stocks the lowest. although it might not be the case this year. At present there is one stock which is selling for less to- day than it was at any time last year, and there is still two months to work on. C. & P. last year sold at S21.5O, and to date it has been offered at S27. and think that it might have been bought at s26.50. This price is on small blocks. Junction sold off late last evening at $6750 while North Butte sales were made at S25. P. & D. was in little demand at SIS.

There is more Catarrh in this section of the country than all other diseases put together, and until the last few years was supposed to be incurable. For a great many years doctors pro- nounced it a local disease and pre- scribed local remedies, and by con- stantIy failing to cure with local treat ment, pronounced it incurable. Science has proven catarrh to be a constitu- tional disease and therefore requires constitutional treatment. Halls Ca tarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J.

Negotiations Between the United
States and Germany For Reel
proeity Treaty.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 5.-The ne.
gotiations between Germany and the
United States for a reciprocity treaty
are at a s%tandstill and unless the out.
look changes considerably 1t is prob.
able that on March 1 next, when the
new German tariff laws go into effect,
the manufacturers of this country will
begin to suffer. Germany is very INK.
ious for q treaty with the United
States, and through its ambassador
here, Baron Speck Won Sternburg, has
so intimated many times. Germany
wants a treaty drawn up under section
q Of the Dingley act, but time limita-
ton Of the clause expired five years
ago and the State Department cannot
proceed under It. The department
has Informed Germany. however; that
a general reciprocity treaty, drawn
under the treaty-making powers of the
President, might be necessitated, but
at the same time the. department
points out the futiiity of presenting a
treaty to the Senate for ratification.
Unless the Senate displays a differ.
ent attitude on the subject Of reci.
procity treaties IL is NOT likely that
the State Department viii make any
effort to make a tEeaty. With Germany.
