WASHINGTON LETTER.

Editor Press:-
A few of the members of the low
er house of Congress who are inter-
ested in the administration of the
Panama canal announce that they
have studied out way to reduce
the number Of the Canal Commits
sioners, and possibly to abolish the
Commission altogether. They de-
clare that they have a powerful
ally in the President whose views
regarding the commission have
been considerably modified by the
report of Col. Symons who states
that after a visit to the Isthmus
and thorough examination of the
conditions there he considered the
system of administration awkward
and inefficient. The law as it
stands gives the commissioners
practically continuous tenure. The
right is reserved to the President
to remove the Commissioners, and
it is plain that he could reduce the
Commission and refuse to appoint
others in their place, but since it
was the Senate which insisted on
the commission and recommended
the appointment of the officers it is
not likely he will make use of this
privilege. However the law for
the administration of affairs in the
canal strip expires at the close of
the present session of Congress and
members of the House, it is said,
will take advantage of the neces-
sity for re-enactment to urge a
provision to extend the power of
the chief engineer and to curtail
that of the Commission. If the
sentiment of the Senate should be
too strongly opposed to this the
whole subject could be thrown into
conference for compromise. Col.
Hepburn, chairman of the Inter
state commerce committee is one of
the most earnest advocates for a
reorganization of the system Of ad-
ministering canal affairs, and is
pretty solidly backed by his COM
mittee the members of which visit
ed the Lsthmus in body last sum
mer. The result of that visit was
the unanimous opinion that Chief
Engineer Wallace was the most
competent man the Government
had in its employ there and he
should be given the fullest power
possible in the conduct of affairs.
Among the recent callers at the
White House was Representative
Robert HIT who would like to be
the successor of General Porter as
Ambassador to France. Mr.. Hit
was first secretary of the American
legation in Paris in 1874 and now
that he has acquired wealth and
honors in his own country he would
like to return to the gay city. That
its gayety makes an appeal is doubt
full for Mr.. Hit has reached the
uncertain age Of seventy odd sum
mers, and is in poor health. These
disadvantages, it will be remem-
bered, were urged against him last
summer when his name was sug-
gested for the Vice Presidency.
Mr.. Thomas Walsh, the Colorado
millionaire, has also been talked
of as the next ambassador to France.
where he made many friends by
his lavish entertaining during the
last exposition, but altogether the
chances for the appointment are
with George l.. Meyer, Of Massa-
chusetts, now ambassador to Italy,
who is q personal friend of the

PROBING IN.THE DARK.

There is very little doing among the
New York brokers In the cotton busi-
ness Just now, either as to future con-
tracts or as to spots. 1t Is because
the trade Is entirely at sea both as to
the acreage question and as to crop
conditions.
Mr.. A. M. Grist was In New York
last week on business, and shortly az
ter he had registered at the Astor
House, he received polite note from
the we'll known firm Of Haven &
Clement, asking him to call at his
convenience and tell the firm what
he knew of the situation In his part
Of the state.
Finding a little spare time on his
hands and as curious to learn about
the situation up In New York as the
brokers were to learn about 1t down
here, Mr.. Grist accepted the invitation
and spent a quarter Of an hour or so
with Mr.. Sterrett Tate Of the firm.
I'VE spend a great many thousand
dollars every year." explained Mr..
Tate, trying to get as accurate infor-
nation as possible about constantly
changing conditions in the cotton crop
and cotton trade; and I have no hes
itation in saying that in all our expe-
rience the situation has not been so
puzzling as 1t Is now. We have men
that we have always regarded as reli-
able and possessed Of good Judgment
telling us that there have been heavy
reductions in acreage and fertilizers.

back to Chicago where he was con-
fronted with a number Of alleged
wives. He confessed to several Of them.
During the trial the state offered ex-
pert testimony to show that Mrs.

with arsenic. The trial lasted for
more than a week; but the jury re-
turned a verdict within half an hour
after receiving the papers. Three
ballots were taken. The first ballot
was unanimous as to Hoch's guilt,
and then a ballot followed as to the
punishment to be inflicted. This
ballot showed ten In favor of the
death penalty and two for life i'm
prisonment. A third ballot resulted
in the twelve jurors voting for the
death penalty. "Well, l guess It's all
off with Johann" groaned Hoch as
the verdict was read In court. He

IT is beginning to be generally rec

damage suit industry Is becoming a
serious menace to the welfare Of we'll

it is hardly to be denied that under the
existing system, the legal adjustment
of such matters Is often more damag-

The ROSS TIN MINE.

l. The Charlotte Observer or last SUM-
Eday contains the following interesting
information from a correspondent,
about the Ross tin mine on the, out
skirts Of Gaffney:
Accompanied by Mr.. D. c. Ross, the
courteous president of the Gaffney Ma
tional Bank, whose father, Capt. 8. 3:
Ross, is the discoverer and owner OF
the Gaffney tin mine, we drove IN
Gsurry to the place where the mining
Operations are being conducted about
a mile west of the town and perhaps
three quarters Of a mile from the main
line Of the Southern Railway.
The shaft is being put down by the
side Of the vein and as soon as q
depth of 235 to $50 feet Is reached
which has perhaps been accomplished
by this tirne-the work Of stoping-that
is of driving horizontal tunnels from
the shaft to the ore vein-is to COM
mence, and the ore will be taken out
IN large quantities. I. was told that
II was not thought best to commence
Stopping until sufficient depth was
obtained to avoid the. danger OF q
cave-in, which would likely result II
stopping were started too early. the
depth of the shaft at the time OF my
visit was over 100 feet and three shirts
of men working eight hours each were
engaged In sinking 1t as rapidly as the
work could be done. The mine has
new and welf equipped plant. Machin-
cry, boilers, hoisting engine, dynamo,
battery, and electrical appliances for
firing the blasting charge, etc., are
all Of the best modern pattern. The
dirt excavated from the shaft yields
40 per cent Of high grade ore, about a
quart Of II being panned for the wri-
ter's information while at the mine.
In addition to the operations where
the shaft Is being sunk. placer mining
in the immediate Vicinity Is peing
conducted most successfully. I was
shown three medium sized boxes Of
tin ore, assaying over 20 per cent pure
tin, in all about. a ton Of ore, valued
at $500. ... r...- e.
The ore. SO far obtained has been
shipped to the smelters at Cornwall,
England, and the most fiattering re-
suits obtained. I was informed that
smelter would probably be erected
at the mine which will do away with
the necessity of trans-ocean Shipment
of the ore to the Cornwall smelters.
The ore vein dips downward strong

so long past that we might reckon 1t
by the thousands Of centuries and ages
upon ages before the earth was hab.

upheaval Of Imprisoned forces formed
this volcanic chimney. The superheat-
ed metal-perhaps volatilized-throWn
upward from profound depths, was
moved in among the baser matter
forming the sides of the cone and
there remained. Perhaps a million
years afterwards. for no one can meas
ure geologic time with certainty, this
mineral treasure has been brought to
light. The accidental discovery OF a
nugget clinging to the roots Of tree
