commission then sold them to the fund
at par"
The point was raised tina the mu-
inequalities selling at par might be
forced to sell to the school fund at a
less price than could be gotten on the
market.
I'VE should put up the bars against
jobbery," said Senator Young.
From the dor we have had and the
reports that come from the actions of
the school fund commission I do not
hin that any municipalities will OBJ
ject to this and will be willing to stop
his jobbing."
Senate Waggener offered the amend
ment to provide that the assessed valu-
alton of municipalities be las returned
and fixed by such municipalities
This is for the purpose of prevent
ing the state board of equalization from
raising the valuation" said Senator
Waggener. The amendment was
adopted.
Senator Samuel Porter offered an
amendment that the fact that a prelim-
mary notice that the bonds are to be
offered to the school fund commission be
published in the state paper and a
county paper 10 days before the offer
is made.
1.-THE main thing in this is publicity
said mate Porter.
Senator Fulton thought this publica-
ton not necessary but would add ex-
pense.
Senator Porter's amendment was lost.

'Ladrones Attack the Town of San
Francisco de MaIabon.

Manila, Jan. 25.-Additional details
regarding an attack by Ladrones on
the town of San Francisco de MaIa-
bon last night, i'll which Contract
Surgeon J. A O'Neill was killed, show
that the Ladrones Numbered 800.
They were led by the FAMOUS outlaws,
MontaIon and FeIizardo, who were
aided by two American negroes. The
Ladrones were armed with over 100
rifles. Besides Surgeon O'Neill one
private of the c-onstaDulary was killed
and three were seriously wounded
The home of former Governor Trias
was attacked and his wife and two
children abducted. The municipal
treasury was looted OF $4,000 and Is
Remington rifles were taken by the
Ladrones. The rebels were dressed in
co~nstabulary uniforms, and this fact
created considerable confusion. The
scouts and the c~onstabulary now have
the band surrounded at the pueblo of
Perez Damarinas. There VAS four
hours of fierce fighting, the complete
result of which has not yet been re-
ported

The market is excellent says the
Iron Trade Review and large orders
have been placed in every class of
material. Rail orders placed with
mills this year now aggregate 1,700,-
600 tons, and more are pending. Not
only is the Steel corporation well sup
piled with orders, but such concerns
as the Republic Iron & Steel company
and the Lackawana Steel company
have orders for all rails they can roll
for many months. Officials Of one
company stated that they could book
orders for 100000 tons for the next
years delivery in couple of days, IL
they were willing to sell that far
ahead. Among the recent orders for
rails are the following: Missouri |

Lake Superior Miners in Demand

Ishpeming Iron Ore: 1t is probab-
ly true that the miners from the Lake
Superior region are more widely scat
tered throughout tile world than
those of any other section. Agents
from the west and from foreign ceun-
tries go to the iron and copper mines
and select experienced men to go to
their respective districts. In fact the
employment in the big mines of the
lake country is a certificate of compe-
tency accepted in any part of the
world. More recently, numerous men
from this region have gone to Arizona
to engage in the development of the
copper properties there. and the splen-
did results and the record for quick
accomplishment has been a revela-
tion TO even the western miners. The
training in the big mines makes men
competent for almost any position
connected with mining.
