JAPANESE LABORERS
ARE NOW AT LARGE

WASHINGTON, July 12.-Four-
teen Japanese labOrers, who, under
the labor laws are not permitted to
land in this country, evaded the au-
thorities in Philadelphia and are at
large somewhere in the United States
The men arrived on the ship Es-
kerug, coming from Hawaii on May
25th. They were part of the crew of
the vessel and were paid off in Phila-
delphia. In accordance with the law
and regulations they were taken be-
fore the immigration authorities by
the captain of the ship. They could
not be landed, but as they indicated
an intention to ship on another YES
sci thus continuing their occupation
as seamen, the immigration anthori-
ties had no control over them. An
inquiry into the matter was made,
developing the fact that the Japan
ese had disappeared into the country.
Where they are now nobody knows.

WESTERN PACIFIC FROM
SALT LAKE TO ELY

F. A. Wadleigh. assistant general
passenger agent of the Denver & Rio
Grande, and F. M. hampton, assist
ant general freight agent, came over
from Denver Sunday morning, made
trip to the present terminus of the
Western Pacific, about 40 miles
west, and returning, left for Denver
early Monday morning.
While the purpose of the trip of
Messrs. Wadleigh and Hampton could
not be ascertained, it is believed
to be directly connected with the Ne
operation of trains between Salt
Lake and Bews Siding, where the
Gould line connects with the Ne
vada Northern. While Vice Presi-
dent Schlacks and General Manager
Ridgway were her they gave this
matter considerable attention, and
as the time for making the connec-
tion with the Nevada line fast APP
proaches it is time the road was get
ting under way for business.
The Western Pacific graders are
within three miles of Bews Siding.
The tracklayers are some distance
behind the graders, but il the, pres
ent intention Is carried out, the
Western Pacific will have rails laid
to Bews by August /. AS soon as
the roadbed has been ballasted the
operation of trains will commence,
giving residents of Ely direct COM
munictation with Salt Lake.--Salti

UNION PACIFIC RAILROADS.
NEW CONVERTIBLE BONDS

NEW YORK, July PA little
more than $4,00O,000 of the Union
Pacific Railroad company's new con-
vertible bond issue of $4,000, 900
was subscribed by the stockholders
according to an announcement by
that company yesterday. The balance
goes to syndicate headed by Kuhn,
Loebb & Co. Subscriptions to this
issue closed yesterday. 1t was made
against recent addition of 500, 700
to the company's capital stock and
the proceeds of it are to be devoted
to improvements. 1t was also an
nounced today that about $9,0O0,0O0
of bond issue of $26,000,0G9 by
the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe
railroad company was taken by the
stockholders. There is no under
writing syndicate connected with the
Atchison issue. but it is understood
that the remaining $17,000,00 Df
bonds will be taken by bankers
heretofore identified with the Atch-
ison road.
In financial circles the small TAX
ings of these offerings occasioned no
surprise; in fact, had been discount

SOMETHING ABOUT
JUSTICE BREWER.

Associate Justice David J. Brewer,
celebrating his SEVENTEEN birthday
with his children and grandchildren
about him, with letters and tele-
grams of congratulation pouring in
on him from classmates and friends
everywhere, from his fellow-justic
and cabinet officers and from the
president, is an object of national
interest. In both the man and the
occasion there is something of old
Roman dignity and character.
1t is the boast of one justice of
the United States supreme court that
he refrains from reading the papers
and holds himself as aloof as pos
sible from public affairs in order
that he may remain uninfiuenced by
popular opinion and avoid all ap-
pearance of judicial bias That has
no: been Justice Brewers way. he
clusion.
In the nearly half century since
he hung out his single in little
Kansas town on the debatable bor-
der ground of slavery he has ever
kept near the people and taken part
in their issues and causes. AS Unit
five years of the war, as Judge of
the criminal court, district judge,
justice of the Kansas supreme court
and circuit judge in turn, and for
the past eighteen years as member
of the highest court, he has grown
with the nations growth. He has
mixed in the fray and been a large
part of it without fear that contact
with the soil would stain his toga
Justice Brewer has been not only
a great Judge, measured by stand
ards which Jay and Marshall set, but
he has manifested many of the at
tributes of a far-sighted statesman
as well. Unlike Harvard, Yale can.
not point to a greatest living grad
uate" in the presidential chair. But
on the supreme bench 1t has an
alumnus in whose honorable career
it may take proper maternal pride.

MANY MINERS
AT WORK NEAR
CHERRY CREEK

An arrival from Cherry creek last
night stated that considerable min
ing was being done in that vicinity.
1.-The town." he said, SIS very
quiet, but the mining activity Is far
greater than it has been in long
time. The saloons that were crowd
ed a few months ago are far from
so now. The men, are living at the
mines and seldom come to town.
There are probably more men in the
district than there were when the
population OF the town was greater.
The merchants are doing big bust
ness, however, as Cherry creek is
the base for supplies.
Cherry creek has some excellent
mines and l believe that before long
you will hear some fine reports from
that section of the country. The
work that is now being done is be-
ing carried on in a quiet manner,
but any day one is liable to hear of
some big strikes being made

GREAT INDICATIONS OF
PLACER DEPOSITS FOUND.

ROUND MOUNTAIN. New. July 10
Great indications of extensive
placer deposits have been found in
the shaft OF the Round Mountain
Comstock Mining company which is
now down to depth of 230 feet. A
large number of coarse colors have
been PANIED and they are increas-
ing in number with depth.
r. G. Reed, promoter of the COM
pany, and the man who has the con-
tract for sinking the shaft. believes
that the placer at that location will
be more abundant than higher on
the mountain side. His theory is
that that found farther up the slope
of Round Mountain is merely that
which came from the crumbling and
disintegration of the lodges, while
that down on the fiat represents the
gold that was washed down by the
action of torrents of moving water
when the mountain was hundreds of
feet higher and the lodges were torn
down with other material. Besides.
the lodges of the Round Mountain
Sphinx and Round Mountain Extern
sion, both of which strike for the
Comstock ground, will be found to
from their ancient groupings along
their courses.
In the old gulches and ravines
that are now under thick Gaping
of wash it is expected that some very
rich paystreaks of placer gold will
be unearthed. Mr.. Reed believes
that such a ravine lies beneath the
Comstock shaft. He expected to en-
counter the solid formation at 200
feet, but being now at 23O he thinks
he is below the general level of the
bedrock.
The Burns lease on the Round
Mountain-Great Western is now
sluicing placer gold from a point
where the bedrock is close to the
surface. Burns gets water after its
having been used at the Sunnyside
mill He is reported to have clean
ed up as high as thirty-two ounces
in week This is but a few hun
bred feet from the dry-washing
works where Tom Wilson cleaned
up over $4,000 on the Round Noun
tain Combination and also close to
the Round Mountain-M Mohawk which
without doubt is future great plac-
err mine The Comstock is 2400 feet
from the Great Western and the wa
ter from the Burns sluice boxes
passes within 200 feet of the former.
Burns made considerable money last
year by sluicing placer gold on the
Little Grey claim at Manhattan.

Oh, say, can you see by the dim can
delight
That has glowed since the last ro-
man candle exploded
While we stood on the lawn at late
hour last .lieht-
Can you see If they're gone, as
most of us fOreboded?
Little Johnnie's left ear will be USE
less, I fear,
And papa's scorched nose makes his
face very queer
But, say, do poor grandfather s
whiskers yet wave,
Or did he acquire skyrOcket shave?
Uncle Henry has gono for some cot
ton and salve
To apply to the arm of your poor
sister Lizzie,
And the doctor keeps speaking of
things he must have;
All night has the druggist been
awfully busy.
Father cannot sit down, so he stands,
with a frown,
And looks out at the fires that are
blazing DER town.
But, say, do poor grandfather's
whiskers yet wave,
Or did they melt of in that crash the
bombs gave?
All day he was warned that it might
not be best
To be showing the youngsters the
tricks of their. fireworks;
He was told that his beard should be
showed in his vest
Or the sparks and the flames
would exhibit their dire works
and Lizzie and John, with our
cuticle gone,
Suffer here on our-cots in the gray
of the dawn.
But, tell us, do grandfather's whisk
ers yet wave,
Or did he acquire July Fourthish
shave?

THE DOGMAs TO
Be PROTECTED
BY THE POPE

Rome, July 19.-The syllabus promul-
gated by the pope with regard to the So
called morednism in the faith contains a
preamble which sets forth that Roman
Catholics. under the pretext OF examining
dogmas, explain them in the name OF his
tory In such a fashion that the dogmas
themselves disappear. To prevent such
errors. the preamble says. the pope has
ordered a Congregation OF Inquisit.on TO
not and reprove the principal errors. and
with his appreciation 65 propositions are
condemned. These include the following:
Divine inspiration does not guarantee
all and every part of the Holy Scrip
lures against error.
The resurrection OF the Saviour is
not an historical fact, but Is purely
supernatural. IL cannot here be demon
strated, nor is IL demonstrable
The Roman Catholic church became
the head of all churches not by divine
ordinances but by purely political cir
cumstances.
The church is the enemy OF natural and
theological sciences
The Christian doctrine was first Judiac,
then Pauline. then Tellenic. then uni
versal
The principal articles OF the Apostles
Greed had not the same Significance TO
the primitive Christians as they have
TO the Christians OF the present time.

DANGEROUS CROSSING
ON PINE STREET

Quick action on the part OF the chauf-
feur OF an automobile saved what looked
like an unavoidable accident ami
for a short space of time onlookers held
their breath waiting for the expected
crash.
A large touring car with six people In II
was coming up Pine street at fair clip
and big open car was coming along
Chestnut street at a pace that the motor
man could not stop. The car was seen
by the chauffeur just I'm time for him to
make a sharp swerve on to the sidewalk
just clearing the car by less than an inch.
Women on the car and I'm the automobile
screamed and many tainted. This cross
ing has been the scene OF more than one
accident and many narrow escapes. Pine
street is used by many auto people be-
cause IL affords them straight run, bat
they are beginning to fight shy OF the
street on account OF the many narrow
escapes when crossing Chestnut street
The trouble is that the motormen have
to arrive at the switch for the siding on
time and they rush along Chestnut street
at a fast pace.
The only solution seems TO be that the
motorman should stop just before crossing
these streets and IL he must make up time
do so on streets where there are not 50
many crossings. The News-Democrat
has spoken about this matter before. but
no doubt the practice will continue of
racing along Chestnut street by the mo-
tormen until some one Is killed
