TO STOP WILDCAT MINING.
The American Mining Congress, Which Meets in October, Will rake Final Action for the Protection of
 Mining Investors.

A bill providing for the punishme mt of all mining fakirs and promoters of iIlegitimate mining enterprises will be drafted by the American Mining Con. gross at it's annual session which will bc held in Denver, Colo, October l6 to 1S, inclusive. X committee composed of the best talent in the United States has been appointed to prepare and sub. init to the Mining Congress draft of such bill. This committee comprises two United states senators, Robert NJ. La Toilette (Wis.), and Fred T. Du. bois (1daho); one congressman, Eben w. Martin (South Dakota), and the governors of two states. George c. Pardee (California), and Joseph w. Folk (Missouri). Four are attorneys and all from mining states of promin. ence.
 California has already adopted Il law which has worked an almost complete riddance from that state of spurious mining stock and that lechcrous para. site on the mining industry-the fake promoter. IL is probable that the pro. posed legislation which will be sub. mittcd to the state legislatures this winter, will be fashioned after the Cali fornia law, which provides that any person who shall undertake to sell or assent to the publication. privately or publicly, of a fraudulently exaggerated report tending to give any person CT the public generally the idea of n great. CT value or less apparent value or mar ket value than such stock may really possess, with the intention of Icfraul. ing any person or the public, "shall bc deemed guilty of n felony, and on con. viction shall be- punished by imprison. ment in state prison, or q fine not .x. ceeding five thousand dollars, ar both. "
 The efforts of the American Mining Congress to protect the investor against mining frauds by furnishing inforina. tion as to the trnc conditions at the mine, has made more apparent the C. eessity of Legislation to suppress th,s evil, and it is hoped that all serious mining men will take an active int.ist and communicate with the secretary to the end that the matter may receive the most intelligent consideration a' the coming meeting. The Mining Con gress never was in as strong posi- tion to combat this evil, and the as sistanec of every mining man is need ed to make its work more effective.
 Steps will also he taken at this session for the creation of mine drain age districts similar to public improve ment districts in cities, and for th' creator of . Department of Mines an' Mining as q separate executive depart ment of the national government.

REFUSE PA[MA'S RESIGNATION IN
 HOPE OF PEACE
Cuban Leader Declines to Remain In Office Despite The
 Many Requests

HAVANA, Sept 27.-Palma stead. fastly refuses every solicitation of his friends to withdraw his resignation. Typical of this determination was n telegram he sent Roosevelt in response to final urgent message from the American president to the effect that he remain at the helm. Palma express cd his warmcst appreciation of Roose- welt s efforts to secure peace for Cuba, and the friendship he has always shown the Cuban people. He rcfrred to his own previous sacrifices for Cuba, which he said had not all been in vain, but in the present situation, md in view of all that had transipred, he felt that any further sacrifices on his part would be useless, and that 1t wonld not be consistent with his dignity and prestige to remain in office.
 Were it possible to induce Palma to withdraw his resignation, the situation would still be most difficult, and inter vcntion would continue to be the most probable outcome. If Palma's resig- nation were accepted, it would become necessary for congress to elect pro visional president. American commis- sioners will not brook the establish ment of provisional government by the Cubans simply as n means of gain ing time. They hold that if provis'

 The American commissioners have little confidence in the politicians, who have been insincere throughout the nine days futile negotiations.

GREAT LOSS 0F
 LIFE IN FLORIDA
 STORM IS FEARED
Steamers Ashore, Wharves Ruined. With Property Damage
 Over $3,O00,OOO

PENSACOLA, Fla, Sept. 27.-The .o ors, sea storm and hurricane that the Gulf coast has experienced in the last hundred and seventy years, began last night, and it was still raging late this afternoon.
 It is reported that many lives were lost between this city and the navy yard, but the reports obtain but slight eredencc. It is known, however, that many houses in that section are under from five to ten feet of water.
 Many persons have been taken from second story windows, and carried safe. Ily to boats. The estimated property damage amounts to $3,OOO,O0O. Every house in Pensacola is damaged, many roofs being blown off. Telephone and electric light wires arc everywhere among the debris. The water front is arewn with wrcckage for miles on either side of the city. and vessels are piled on the wharves. The wharvcs, themselves nre utterly ruined. Big iron steamers and many lighter sailing yes sells are high and dry up in the city, where the tide has never before been known to rcach. There ia no street ear traffic, and communication with the outside world is practically cut off. This dispatch is being carried to Flom- ation, Alabama, by Western Union mes. sengcr by train. It is feared that great havoc and loss of life will bc discover. ed when reports from the entire section of the coast comes in.
 Weather Bureaus Report. WASHINGTON, D. C., Sept. 27.- Related reports from the weather bu- rcau, tonight. from Pensacola, announce that Gulf hurricane passed inland west of there, the wind blowing ss niles an hour at Pensacola. The storm probably centered tonight in the south and central parts of the Mississippi Valley.
 IL is believed to be increasing in en- ergy, and the bureau predicts that 1t will move slowly northward in the next si hours. An increase in the energy of the storm, however, is expected by the bureau when the disturbance reaches the lower lake region.

 Further Details of Storm.
 NEW ORLEANS, La., Sept. 27.- All efforts to penetrate even to the edge of the flood caused by the hurri. cane on the Gulf of Mexico, east and south of here, have been fruitless up to tonight, twcnty.four hours after the receipt of the last message from the ex. posed towns.
 From Lake Catherine eastward, the exposed towns are: Bay St. Louis, Pass Christian, Biloxi, Ocean Springs, Pas. engoula, and Scranton. Miss. They face the Mississippi Sound, across which the wind has long sweep. Staff core. spondents of local newspapers left here yesterday afternoon to distribute them. selves along the shore of the Mississ. ippi sound, in anticipation of another storm, but have not been heard from. Although their papers have tried to
  reach them by roundabout telegrams, no intimation of the situation had been received, up to late hour tonight, nor was there any immediate prospect of news by boat. No craft of any kind has como up the Mississippi river since dark. The wireless stations at the mouth of tho river wcrc abandoned early in the storm, eight feet of water covering the floor of the operator s room.
 Despite the anxiety here tonight, the general belief is that few. if any, lives werc lost, as the inhabitants had two days warnings of the approach of the storm. Officials of the Louisville X Nashville railroad this afternoon said there was little likelihood of any trains arriving or leaving New Or leans. They said it was impossible to do any reconstruction work on the wash out until the wind abates.
 Steamers 300 miles out in the Gulf reported by wireless that the sea was calm.

The guinea fowl may yet become a
very profitable item in farm poultry
raising. The scarcity Of certain kinds
o. game which resemble the guinea
in flavor. especially the western
prairie chicken and grouse has led
to the substitution o. yolng guineas.
on hotel and restaurant bills Of fare.
Guineas Of about tie 0roiler age
Weighing one poJld and a half are
OF an exceedingly fine. eamey favor
ana seem to satisfy the consumer es-
pecially if he does not know what he
is eating. which is the case with so
many who patroaize res adrants. In
this way cafes are able to dodge the
game laws and serve prairie chicken
on the bill of fare at all seasons.
Game houses are paving high prices
for young guineas and it would seem
that large farms might BE- devoted to
them proftably wherever turkeys
and pheasants succeed.
