J. Bryan, writing from Hongkong, has
sent his resignation as trustee Of Hin.

he would not serve a school where the
board of trustees was in favor of &C.
cepting funds from Carnegie OF ether
trnstee magnates who are attempting
to substitute the colleges of America to
prevent teaching of economic truths.
The resignation was accepted.
1.-THE ISSUE" writes Mr.. BRYAN.
"seemes to me vital one, and even If
Carnegie refuses, the same question
will likely arise if some other trust
magnate invites requests Our college
can not be college for the people and
at at the same time commend itself TO
the commercial highwsymen who are
now substituting the colleges to prevent
the teaching of economic truths.
1T grieves me to have my ALMA ma
ter converted into an alley of plutoc-
racy, but having done what l could to
prevent it, have no other recourse
than to withdraw from its manage
ment. regret that the action, if il
was to be taken, was not taken before
| gave my notes, for / regard the money
given as worse than wasted if the col
lege is to be under the shadow of a
great monopoly"

MINING NOTES.

Following the advice of the depart
ment of justice, All order has been
issued by the secretary of the treas
for the zinc which they contain as
metallic mineral substances in a crude
state, under paragraph 1873 of the tariff
act, which pay a duty of 20 per cent
ad valorem. Silicate of zinc is free of
duty under section 514 of the tariff
act. Sulphides and carbonates will
pay a duty of 20 per cent ad valorem.
This ruling is the outcome of an ex-
tended contest between the zinc pro-
ducers of Missouri and the ore import
ers. It is understood that the import
ers will appeal.

ALLEGED PLAN.IAFOOT TO JOIN
-FOUR GREAT SYSTEMS.
st. Paul Papers Predict Greatest Rail-

Last Sundays 81. Paul papers dis
close that the most gigantic transcon-
unental railroad deal ever known is
being formulated. It means the con-
solidation OF the Northern Pacific and
the Chicago. Milwaukee & st. Paul
and the Great Northern and Burling-
ton into two great transcontinental
lines. 1t also means the shutting out
Of the Hartman interests on the Pa
citic coast. II also means a desperate
fight between the four lines mention
ed and the Hartman lines. AS dis
closed today by an authority of un-
questioned integrity. the situation is
as follows:
The undertaking involves two sep
arate transactions. They have been
in the minds of the promoters for sew
eral years. The proposal means two
of the greatest railroad systems in the
world.
The Great Northern is one. It's

sale of rights to its own and Burling.

Its stockholders may easily devote
100000. 900 toward the purchase OF
stock in the Chicago Milwaukee &
st. Paul, extending to the Pacific coast
and practically paralleling the North
ern Pacific. The Chicago, Milwaukee
& st. Paul will find it more conven
lent at points along the route to use
the Northern Pacific tracks. Indeed
conferences have already been held
between the officials to this end.
A railroad attorney, whose business
brings him in touch with the financial
end of all these roads. declares that
affairs are so shaping that one car
reach no other conclusion, and he pre-
diets that within two years at Least
and possibly sooner the four roads
mentioned will have become tive grea

GHOST POINTS WAY TO GOLD.
Miners story of Discovery of Rich
Mineral Deposit.

Bringing a bottle filed with almost
pure gold, taken from a lode long hid
den in mountain Businesses, not far
from here, w. e. Bartlett and NJ. @.
Black, both well-known business men.
are back after a perilous trip TO the
Cascades.
Theirs, however, was labor richly
rewarded, though the story is so inter
woven with spiritualism and romance
that It is well-nigh incredible. Bart
lett is the grandson Of d. e. Ingels, a
miner Of the early sos in these parts,
who was murdered in the hills by his
partner. The Bartlett family are spir-
itualists, and Bartlett declares his
dead and murdered grandfather,
through a Portland medium, sent word
to him to find the lost mine, and he
would be independent for life.
Bartlett swears positively that he
received specific directions from the
spirit of his grandfather how to pro-
coed to the lost mine. Moreover, he
was told to select NJ. c. Black to ac-
company him. The men will not tell
Of the location of their find, but say
1t cannot be reached save by making
an extremely dangerous trip and one
filed with hardship, especially at this
time of the year, when the mountains
are firmly In winters Icy grasp. In
the spring they will return and develop
their find.
In a rough and mountainous section
they say, they found a gray quartz
ledge, literally filed with precious
metal Small pieces were broken OF
pounded up In a frying pan which they
had with them, and tine gold picked ou
by the mems fingers and placed in {
bottle. Should the ledge prove as ricl
as the samples. a man could make I
mortar and gold pan, and in a week
TINA take out enough Of the gold t
make him wealthy.
As an evidence Of their find the.
have the little bottle of gold dust
which has a.toS1y been viewed b.
dozens Of people, and tests have beel
made by o. D. Johnson which prov
that the mineral is genuine.-Seattl

Antonio Martinez. citizen " the

tween fighting bulls. riding wild horses
and harpooning whales. came to Wash
ington a few days ago from Savan-
nah, Ga, to present 10 the National
Museum, through the fish commission,
which he took from the stomach OF a
fish near Fort de France, Martinique,
says the Washington Star. Martinez
is a soldier OF fortune OF the true West
Indian type. He was born In Cuba
and took up the work OF fighting bulls
for the satisfaction 1t gave him to over
come the brutes. For the same reason
he became an expert horseman and
combined his exhibitions of bull fight
ing with rough-riding work
During the last Cuban war of indie
pendence he was a soldier in the army
of Maxine Gomez and was one OF the
few Cubans that were OF assistance to
the Americans on their landing in
Cuba. His real work in life, he says,
has given exhibitions OF his skill

has given exhibitions Of his skill

however, with all the vicious tentacles
1t would have when fully grown. Ac-
cording to Martinez, who claims to
have seen several, the octopus is
equipped with but two large arms or
tentacles and eight smaller ones.
The largest arms on the baby octo-
pus Martinez brought here are about
eight inches long and the shorter ones
but a few inches less The short arms
grow out from around Its mouth, the
mouth being the center of a circle
the radius OF which would touch the
point Of each tentacle. These tentacles
are equipped with teeth. such as tue
crab has, and with suction cups. The
long tentacles are equipped with sue

eles the monster seizes Its prey and
