Waning EFFECT
OF The MARKET
(By Associated Press )

NEW YORK, Nov. 19.-There was
a renewal of liquidation on the stock
market today and of character
which carried formidable influence
on the speculative sentiment. The
effect for good of the national gov
ernment plan of relief for the cur
rency situation seemed to have pass
ed away completely, the result being
an expansion of yesterdays tenden-
cy when the progress of the days
dealings witnessed steady waning
effect of that factor. Prices today
got back generally below the closing
level of last week and in some in
stances reached the lowest prices of
the year. Bonds were weak.

BIG EXODUS OF
Mine OPERATIVES

TACOMA, Nov. 19.-The general
shutdown at the mines and smelters
of the Boundry district, which is at
tributed to the prevailing low price
for copper and an overproduction of
the metal, is now practically COM
plete. and about 1000 men hereto
fore employed in this district have
received their wage checks, and are
to large extent, scattering.
The CRANKY company alone let out
about 900 men at it's mines and smell
ter, the number at the mines being
about $50. Some $50 men at the
Snowshoe mine were all paid off
about the same time, and there was
an exceedingly heavy draft on the
bank at Grandforks, which had no
notice of the close down and had
made no preparations for paying out
over 100000 in currency. Manager
Hood, however, got to work, and by
drawing on other nearby banks, was
able to meet the drain. Every train
on both railways is crowded with
men going out, the bulk taking the
Great Northern to Spokane and ether
points.

LEGISLATURE
IS IN SESSION
Railroad Commissioner Will
son Sends in Resignation,
thus Avoiding Impeachment
Proceedings.

for. which it was called by Thursday
night or Friday at the latest, but a
serious obstacle was encountered this
afternoon when the bills, drafted to
enable the courts to resume during
the special holiday period and mea-
sure extending time for the payment
OF taxes reached the respective ju-
dietary committees of the two houses.
Much dissatisfaction was expressed,
not with the object of the measure,
but with its present form. Strong
opposition developed and it was i'm
possible to reach an agreement. 1t
was finally decided to ask the gov
erhorA Attorney General Webb, E. C.
Cooper, private secretary to the gov
ernor; L. T. Hatfield, representing
the Sacramento chamber of com
merce and banks, to meet the COM
mittee at O'Clock tomorrow after

ney of Oakland, to appear before the
committee at the same time, that the

have done their assessment work al
ready. This is manifestly SO absurd
that Il is scarcely worthy OF note.
In this regard Congressman Bar.-
lett says that those who are unfort-
unate to have had their work sl-
ready done are to be congratulated,
but how measure to relieve their
less fortunate fellows is going TO
hurt them is beyond his powers of
perception. Mr.. Bartlett outlines his
reasons for the bill as follows: >
THE bill is designed to protect
those who have held and mined prop
crty for years. but who, thorugh the
present financial stiingency are not
able to obtain from the banks, or
otherwise, money enough to have
Tonopah daily bonanza. [volume] (Tonopah, Nev.) 1906-1929, 1907-11-20

and they have done this in the
knowledge that their protests win be
given the fullest consideration. for
they know that Mr.. Bartlett has al
ways been the friend of labor.
The arguments of the miners are
to the effect that they will be de-
prived of the opportunity of making
money in doing assessment work.
Haw can this argument hold water,
in view of the fact that the bill is
introduced for the very reason that
men have not the money to do the
work that is required of them by
law? If the work is not done, what
occurs? The claims are jumped, and
the jumper is given three months in
which to do his location work, and
Tonopah daily bonanza. [volume] (Tonopah, Nev.) 1906-1929, 1907-11-20

II he does not do 1t then. he either
abandons the claim, or relocates it.
In either case there is no work for
the miner. so where is his loss?
The argument has been advanced
that the bill will benefit capitalists.
or those who have great number of
claims. That is hardly sound argu-
ment. since there will be others ben
efitted as we'll. The bill is really in
tended to benefit the poor man, or
the man, who is poor at present since
he cannot raise the money to do his
work. The capitalist, or man Of
means, can afford to do his work,
and surely will, if his claims are
worth it. 1t has been SO urged that
the bill will be unfair to those who

DOUBLES ORDERS
FOR COAL BARGES

VALLEJO, Nov. 19.--In addition
to twelve coal barges, that will be
built at Mare Island navy yard, to
cost the government $144,0OO, au-
thority has been received here to in
crease the order to twenty-four bar
ges, the additional carriers to be used
at the local station. This will mean
the expenditure of nearly $25O,0O0
and the employment Of big force
OF ship filters for the next eighteen
months.
Word has been received that the
icruiser Milwaukee will come here for
docking about New Year if the trans
port Sheridan is released from the
dock by that time. An effort is be-
ing made to hurry up the Sheridan
job, as the coming of the Milwaukee
would mean the expenditure of a
large sum here.

PADDING
SUSTAINED BY REPORT
Number of Children al Terre
Haute Reduced.
STUDY WINS HIS POINT,

Indianapolis, Ind, August 1O.-The
result of the special enumeration of
school children in Terre Haute, taken
by State superintendent Cotton, was
announced Friday. 1t shows that there
are 13,O45 children of school age in
Terre Haute. The enumeration taken
there last spring gave the city 1899
which would have displaced Superin-
tendent Study, of FIT. Wayne, as a
member of the state board of educa-
ton, as the total number of school
children in FIT. Wayne this year. is
1854.
Superintendent Study charged that
the Terre Haute returns were padded.
The special enumeration shows that
there were many errors and duplica-
lions in the first report. For instance
one family was credited with twenty
four children. five of them 10 years of
age.
The result of the special enumeration
was forwarded to Terre Haute today.
Word reached the state superintend-
ent's office that the Terre Haute Off
Gals are preparing to take another
enumeration.

ARE LIABLE TO Be FINED
Persons Performing Marriage
eS Should Make Returns.

Harry E. Penny, clerk of the Wayne
circuit court, desires to call the at
tention of all persons performing mar
riage ceremonies to the fact, that the
law requires them TO make their re-
turns within three days after perform
ing said ceremonies, and if such re-
turns are not made accordingly, the
parties performing the ceremonies are
subject to a fine of $500 Careless
ness on the part of persons perform
ing marriage ceremonies has caused
considerable trouble in the past; and
it is hoped that in the future this law
will be strictly observed; as the Clerk
has no desire to see any person fined
for neglect of duty.
