Activity Of Leaders.

Considerable earnestness has been
shown by some OF the leaders looking
toward a settlement of acceptable
terms. but others, and notably so
among the moderates, appear to be sat-
isfied TO let the case rest as II is until
it can be adjudicated by President
Roosevelt's representatives. The rebels
are more anxious to occupy a position
which may be considered at least
equally as strong as that of the govern
ment. and consequently they are more
persistently active.
General MOnocal stated to the Asso-
ciated Press tonight that the important
part OF his mission was ended when he
brought the leaders together. The lib
erals feel they accomplished somethl <
in procuring the release of the alleged
conspirators, more recently arrested,
and in inducing a cessation of HOSTILE
ties. Part of their leaders also reTrark

arts probable Fldn'
While no acceptable basis of peace ap-
pears to have been suggested by either
side the impression is general that Sec
rotary Taft will take up the work OF
peacemaking at small consideration for
past grievances, the main idea being
rather constructive measures for the tu-
ture.
The newest feature of the revolution is
the appearance OF Americans from the
Isle of Pines, complaining that officials
of the courts Of the Isle of Pines are
searching the homes of all Americans for
firearms and seiZing all arms which may
be found. The Americans there, bOth
radicals and conservatives, are extremely
wrathfuI over the action OF these officials,
especially so as the conduct of some OF
the natives lately had caused them TO
consider the necessity of having firearms
within reach. They will appeal 10 Min
lister Morgan and Assistant Secretary of
State Bacon tomorrow with a request that
a United States naval vessel be sent to
the Isle of Pines TO safeguard the lives
and properties of Americans.

Sugar Estate Burned,

Information was received at the state
department late today from NJ. r.
Spellman of the Colonial Cuban com
pany at New York, that he had been
advised of the destruction this NOM
ing of the Esperanto sugar estate near
CienfuegOs, Cuba. The estate was
burned by Colonel COllada and d band
Of insurgents. 1t is not know whether
Colonel Collada was unaware Of the
suspension of hostilities or merely was
acting as an outlaw.
The Esperanza estate Is not far from
the Constantia estate which was re-
ported to have been destroyed several
days ago. The insurgents have been
particularly active I'm the vicinity of
Cienfuegos and are reported to have
destroyed considerable property. Off
cial advices concerning the burning of
big plantations, which have been re-
ported from time to time, are lacking,
however.
Some question has arisen over the
conflict of Mr.. Spellman's dispatch, and
it is possible that he refers TO the same
plantation mentioned in Commander
! Fullam's dispatch received by the navy
department late yesterday afternoon.

JAPANESE WILL WORK
 ON MEXICAN CENTRAL

Q GUADALAJARA, Mex, July 26.-D. B. Smith announces that his firm has entered into a contract for the impor- tation of 1000 Japanese for construc- tion work on the Manzanillo extension of the Mexican central raIIway. To bring in this number of Japanese an advance of $40,000 is necessary. Of this amount $30,000 will go to the steamship company for transportation and S10,000 will be distributed among the laborers' families. The latter sum will be deducted by the contractors from the mems wages. The money paid for transportation represents the expense necessary in securing Jap anese labor. The Japanese govern ment specifics that the laborers shall be paid at least SIPS Mexican cur Scncy day.
 Although handicapped by scarcity of labor, the contractors are making a good showing on the ManZanillo ex- tension. Seven of the twelve tunnels remaining to be built in the forty-two miles between Tuxpan and Collma are open from end to end. Twenty of the forty-two miles are ready for track. Shipments of 4000 tons of steel rails and 26,000 Oregon ties have just reached ManZanillo.

SHOCKING ACCIDENT
 OCCURRED AT GLOBE

Ismes A. Murton. native of Corn wall, England, aged c7, an oilman at the big hoist of the Old Dominion shaft at Globe, met with a fatal acci. dent at o'clock Sunday evening.
 He had been requested by W. H. Collins, the engineer on shift with him, to paint a white lead indicator on the cable. Tn order to reach the drum on which the cable is wound he stepped or fell into the monster fly wheel at the time rapidly in motion
 The men in the shaft house heard one scream, and Collins reversed the engine instan'-y and stopped the ma chinery, but too late, On investigation Murton was found with his right leg practically pulverized it's whole length in the cogs. He was hastily extricat- ed, but lived only about three hours, the shock and loss of blood being too much for even his rugged constitu tion.
 He was conscious until overcome by opiates administered to relieve his suf fering, knew his injuries fatal and ex onerated all from blame The cor oner's inquest was held at 1 o'clock yesterday and a verdict returned ac- cording to the above facts.

NEW METHODS GOVERN
 NAMING OF c0NSULS

Consul General George H. Murphy who visited Nogales last week is one of the recently appointed officials of the United States consular service, under the act of congress creating the offices of consul generals at large Five such officials have been named, one for the continent of North Amer ica, one for South America, one for Europe, one for Asia and one for Africa, the latter having included in his territory the southwestern portion of Asia. As the appointments have been so recently made the appointees have not yet been assigned to the continents they are to cover. At present MT. Murphy is consul general at large for the continent of North America.
 That readers might have a thorough understanding of the new order af- fecting the consular service, a matter of considerable interest on the border where the people are constantly in touch with many of the American con sulates in Mexico, reporter obtain ed an interview with General Mur- phy brief and concise explanation of the new system of consular appoint. ments.
 "The offices of consul general at large" said General Murphy, were created with a view to bringing the various consulates into closer touch with each other and under fore strict supervision of the heads of the de- partment. They were also created with a view to eliminating, so far as possible, the political influence that has heretofore been so dominant in the selection of men for the consular service.
 "The creation of the offices was due to the efforts of Secretary Root, any they are not to be filled by political appointees. The consul gen erals at large must be selected from among men of experience, already in the service. Under the new order, also, it will be impossible for new men to receive appointments to the most important positions. They are to be filled, also, by men already in ser vice being promoted. New appoint ees must be satisfied with the smaller and less lucrative positions, till prov. en ability entities them to promotion. And even the smaller offices will not be so thoroughly under political domi- nation. The clerks and yice-consIls will be considered when vacancies are being filled and the clerk or vice consul who has shown ability will have an opportunity to step into a consulate. It simply means that the higher consular positions that have heretofore been given to new and inexperienced men who have political influence. will hereafter be given to men who have hpaO tried and Droyad worthy"

THE AMERICAN
 MINING CONGRESS

The recent action of rle American Mining Congress in amending us rules. and bylaws and greatly enlarging the scope of its operations. promises to launch that organization on a career of real and practical usefulness. The work of the congress heretofore has been almost entirely of an academic character. and while the annual meet ings, with their technical papers and free discussions, have doubtless cou. tributed the general sum of mining knowledge, the net results of these pieasant meetings have fallen short Of the expectations of the founders and the members generally.
 Under the influence of the new spirit that has manifested itself it is proposed to establish permanent head quarters at Denver, to erect cred itabie building to serve as the home of the congress, to install mining ex- hibit of commercial ores representing tn whole country. a complete mining library. a laboratory, for qualitative analyses, and a bureau of information on all subjects connected with mining, including the furnishing to general in vestors of sT,ch information as will guard them against palpable frauds, aLd serve to place mining on an in- yestment rather than speculative basis.
 Special safeguards against any tend ency in the direction Of localizing the operations of the congress are pro- vided in an amendment 10 the bylaws prohibiting any one state from con trolling the organization. Under this clause each mining state is placed on an equality with all of the others in the selection of the governing boarc' and in the determination of the gen eral policies to be pursued by the congress.
 The declared purposes of the organi- zation as now constituted will com mend themselves to the judgment or
 all mining men who appreciate the importance of cooperation in the solu- ton of the manifold problems con nected with the production and treat ment e ores.
 The little pamphlet containing the bylaws and much other interesting in' formation regarding the congress can be obtained by addressing the secre- tary, J. F. Callbreath, Jr., Denver I Colo.
