LINERS FIRST TRIP.

Dover, Oct. 12.-The new Hamburg American liner America. Captain Sauerman, now on it's virgin trip across the Atlantic, left here today with a full cargo of passengers and freight for New York, and is expected to arrive there on October 18th or 18th. The America is one of the larg- est passenger steamers ever launched and her displacement of 42,000 tons is greater than that of any other vessel in the world.
 The steamer has a length of 687 feet, a beam of "A feet inches and a depth of 53 feet Her gross tonnage is about 23.00O, and when loaded she will carry more than 16,000 tons of cargo. The steamer is not built for great speed, but will have fair speed considering her size and construction. Her twin screws are revolved by quadruple expansion engines indicat- ing 15,0O0 horse power. They are built on the balanced principle. which reduces vibration. The steamer em- bodies many novel features, among them a restaurant where meals will be served a la carte. The restaurant is on the sixth of the enormous decks and will accommodate 120 persons. Its decorative scheme is in Renais- sance, with elaborate effects in chased bronze. Other novel features are an electric passenger elevator, nursery for children, trained nurses for those who happen to be i'll, a woman's hair dresser, florist shop, candy store, luxurious hydropathic and electric baths, with masseurs, a gymnasium, suites de luxe in exquisite colors. state room telephone service and Marconi wireless telegraph. Saloon travellers have three decks for promenading. The ship has accommodations for 3057 pas sengers. while the crew consists of 520 men. Great care has been taken to thoroughly ventilate the ship in all its parts and all the latest safety appliances have been adopted.

DIVIDENDS If. GOLD MINING.

The report of the Johannesburg chamber of commerce for 1904 shows that the gold mines of the Rand dis trict paid $19,OO0.OOO in dividends in that year on an output of $SO.000. 900. Naturally the expectation is that the payments will be much higher in 1905. The ss0,0O0,o0O output of last year will be increased to $1OO OOO.O 900 this year, it is safe to guess. The returns of each month along to the end of Sep tember render a s1O0.O0O,OOO yield for 1905 exceedingly probable.
 Gold mining, after all. is pretty profitable. It Ssed to be said that more money had been sunk in gold and silver miaeJ than was ever got out of them. Whether this is true or not, it is certain that great fortunes are still being made in gold mines Coloradc's mines-gold, silver, cop per, lead, zinc and coal, but prin- cipally gold-yielded dividends of 29 RNA NN4N Ol lnC Oulput III lJVt, dS compared with 24 per cent in the Rand. Alaska's mines, or some of them, are doing well. There is still considerable gold taken out of the Klondike distroct, though nothing like the amounts obtained there a few years ago. Nevada is developing new gold fields which, though they are not likely to touch the figures of the sil- yer and gold output of the Comstock's days, are making money for their owners.
 New processes in the extraction of the metal from the ores and the dis eovery of methods whereby mining can be carried to greater depths than formerly are giving a spur to the yield of gold and silver. Ores which once would be thrown away are now manipulated with a profit. These are some of the reasons why the worlds gold yield keeps on increasing. It was $325, 100000 in 1903, and s35O,- 100000 in 1904. It will be $400, ,O0O,- 900 in 1905. The United States has more of the yellow metal in it's treas ury and its banks than can be put to profitable use. Nevertheless, it is we'll that the gold production keeps on in- cTeasing. The size of the dividends which are being declared in the gold fields of the United States, the Trans vaal and Canada reveal an incentive to gold production which is likely to keep up the yield.

FRIGHTFUL MURDER DONE
HEAD FOUND IN ONE PLACE AND REST OF THE BODY IN AN
 OTHER.

New York, Oct 12.-The finding of a mans head in front of SIS East Eighteenth street, led to the dis covery of a murder probably last night at 149 Third avenue. Informa- tion of the probable murder was given to the police by an unnamed inform ant. A search of the house revealed the arms and legs of a man in a suit case and the body in a closet. Fred Bauer, who was seen early today com ing from a room on the third floor of the Third avenue house, was arrested.
 The murdered man was identified as Thomas Corcoran. a ticket chopper of the elevated railroad. Frederick Bauer. in whose room portions of Cor corans body was found, was arrested. Bauer's clothing was covered with blood stains.
 Information of the tragedy was given the police by George Lacell. who occupied the room adjoining Bauer's.

The new webster's International Dictionary contains 25,000 words which have not been printed in any previous dictionary But one word which deserves a place in any Eng fish dictionary was omitted. That word is buttinsky. It is slang, but it has earned respectable place in the language. It has no synonym of half it's force. No other word can take it's place. A buttinsky is a man whose own business is of such small import ance that he amuses himself by assist ing in the affairs of others. He is full of suggestions, wise counsel, ad- vice. He is full of self-confidence. He knows how to build the Panama canal and would do it if given half a chance. But he is harmless if properly watched. At the worst he is merely annoying. His suggestions are imper- tinent and the attention he attracts is of the same sort as that attracted by a meddlesOme mosquito.

SIMPLER METHODS NEEDED.

John F. Gaynor and Benjamin F.
 Greene have at last been brought
 back to the United States, and are now in jail in Georgia The Canadian authorities are as glad to be rid of them as ours are to have them safely in custody and beyond the reach of habeas corpus measures and processes of appeal. They are now under the
 jurisdiction of the federal judicial
 district where they committed the of
 'enses that led to their indictment as
 ,onspirators with Captain Oberlin NJ. |. Carter, who defrauded the United
 States out of large sums of money
 set aside for river and harbor i'm
 2rOvement.
 The case of these men is the most
 notorious of any in the records of the extraditiOn courts of Canada. For more than two years they have evaded
 every effort put forth to bring them
 to trial To do that was their priv ilege under the forms of extradition procedure as it now prevails between this country and the Dominion. With stolen money at their command they
 fought hard at every stage. They set the provincial authority of Quebec against the federal authority of Ot- tawa and held up both by forcing an appeal to the privy council of the em- pire in London. It is not too much to say that had any prosecuting agency less powerful than the United States government sought their re moval to this side of the line the at tempt to obtain justice upon them would long ago have been abandoned in despair.
 We are not at present exercised concerning the guilt of these men. The lesson of their case now is that the government at Washington and the government at Ottawa, with the approval and assistance of the gov ernment in London, should together | devise methods of simplifying extra dition and reducing. if not eliminating the opportunities for asylum now af- forded to fugitive suspects by either country. The people of Canada do not want to shield our criminals. The | people of the United States do not | want to shield Canadian criminals. l The popular wish in either instance may be satisfied by making the rul- ing of the extradition commissioners final. or, at the most, permitting but one appeal and that direct to the fed eral supreme courts at Washington and Ottawa. Let us have a simplified | procedure and let is have it quickly. | The delay in the Gaynor and Greene affair is a scandal in which each coun- try shares equally, and of which the should at once be rendered

ately upon receipt of the invitation to

was unanimously determined by the

country press has at last brought
forth asstatement from Sam Fullerton
which alleges to set forth the receipts
and expenditures of the game and fish
commission for the past year. It is "a
statement devoid of detail in its main.
points, and bears not the remotest
semblance to balance Sheet In
brief, it is not the sort of a statement
which the public demands. From this
enigmatical report we however deduce
these points, which should be sufficient
to determine the taxpayers to insist
upon more economic administration
of their money!:
The total amount expended by the
game and fish commission for the past
year is alleged to be $50, 23O66, of
which sum about $4,000 was paid in
salaries to Fullerton and his hired
spoilers spoilers whose occupation is
largely to sneak about in the woods
and entrap farmers who shoot out of
season a game bird or two which they
have themselves raised. Then from
Fullerton's "balance" sheet we find
that for this expenditure of $4,000 to
himself and hirelings the state re-
ceived the following in return: Con-
fiscations- deer hides, six deer
heads, so moose hides, 10 moose
heads, eight sheep pelts, one COW hide.
1,7so birds, 80 muskrat skins, 1882
pounds of fish, 81 pounds of Venison,
7,ll2 feet of net, so nets, l6 set lines,
three traps, 60 tip-ups and twenty -one
guns. The fines imposed amounted to
81, 285, but the receipts from confis-
Gated game is Sbunched with the sale of
licenses, so that it is impossible to
tell the amount which this game
brought. And no account whatso-
ever is given of the disposition of the
guns or the number of spoilers en-
ployed.
The whole statement, as published
in St. Paul daily, savors strongly
of an underlying purpose of evasion
of an attempt to hoodwink the public
as to the disposition of it's money.
