SHANGHAI, Sept. 23.-Editor
.o'Shea of the Chinese Gazette was
committed in the British court today
to stand trial on a charge of criminal
libel against Judge L. e. Whitley of
the United States extraterritorial
court. He was released on $1,000
bail. The proceedings were taken by
the British authorities at the request
of Judge Wiley.
The Gazette described Judge VIII
fey as a coarse, INSCRIPTIONS. ignor-
ant mountebank, whom the grim iron
of corrupt American politics had In
trusted with the discharge OF judicial
functions which he was intellectually
mentally and morally untitled and In
capable of exercising,

GRASS VALLEY
Mine SUSPENDS

GRASS VALLEY (CaD, Sept. %.
The Brunswick, one of the big
mines of this district, has closed, and
orders have been given to pull the
pumps. The resignation of Superin-
tendent Mallon, declined some time
ago, has now been accepted, after be-
ing rendered second time. Over
seventy men have been laid off and
the shaft is reported rapidly rapidly
filling up with water. The order was
passed at a meeting of the directors
held few days ago in San Francisco,
but why it was issued is mystery, as
the mine as always been regarded as
a paying investment. 1t is limited
that dissension among the stock
holders as to the future policy caused
the shut down. 1t has been the con-
tention for over a year that a new
shaft must be sunk in order to oper-
ate the mine economically. Whether
the present action is the result. of dis
cussion over this important project
cannot be learned.

SCORES NATIONAL
BANK EXAMINERS

WASHINGTON, Sept 23.-'I say
to you emphatically that your work
must be improved. Embezzlements
have failed of discovery. defalcations
and dishonesty have been concealed
from you, and in many cases you
have failed to correctly or even APP
proximately estimate the value of the
paper and securities held by the
banks"
This was the declaration made to-
day by Controller of the Currency
Lawrence o. Murray in addressing
the conference of national bank ex-
aminers. representing practically all
of the territory east of Ohio. The
conference, which is being held be-
hind closed doors, is expected to con-
tinue several days. and is the first un-
der the controllers call OF September
eth. designed to discuss the bank ex-
aminers' work with a view to radical
improvement Later. Murray will
hold conference with the western
examiners. probably at Chicago,

THE PHILIPPINES
A LAND OF GOLD
MINING MAN SAYS THE ISLANDS
WILL LIKELY SURPASS
ALASKA.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 2S.-The
Philippines may surpass Alaska in
gold production in the next few
years
those disposed to look upon the Phil
ippine islands as a useless acquisi-
ton, says A. Heise, mining engi-
neer of Manila, who is now in Wash
ington. Before the Spanish con-
quest gold dust in considerable guam
titles was exported from the Philip
pines to China, and since the Ameri-
can occupation the work of prospect
ing has made wonderful strides. Next
year yellow metal to the value of ST.
100000 will be excavated, and the in
stallation of improved machinery will
make possible production of at least
100000 annually Ore bodies in
sight and blocked out, fully verified
by trustworthy reports made to the
government, will yield $1OO,0O0,O 900.
'There is every reason to believe
that as mining operations progress
greater and richer deposits of the pre-
cious metal will be uncovered. Many
Americans who have gone to the Phil
ippines as enlisted men in the army,
but who were experienced prospectors
and practical miners, have remained
in the archipelago, lured by the gold
in sight, the prospects of accumulat-
ing fortune from mining offsetting
all objections to living in the tropics.
1t will not be long before the Philip
pines will take a leading position as
gold producing country"

A TENDERLOIN
TRAGEDY IN reno
A MESSENGER BOY SHOT. JOE
ROSTRAND AND MADE
ESCAPE.

RENO, Sept. 23-Joseph Rostrand,
a man about the tenderloin district,
was fatally shot at O'Clock Sunday
night by James Thompson, messen-
ger boy connected with the Home
Telephone company, on Front street.
The tragedy occurred in the mo
hawk" house on lower Second street,
with an entrance opening on Peavine
street. Rostrand is dying at the coun-
ty hospital from the effects of the bull
let from 38-calibre revolver, 1t hav-
ing entered the face directly below
the eye and penetrating the brain.
Thompson is hiding somewhere in
the willows, it is presumed. along the
river banks, and almost the entire po-
lice force and the sheriff's Office are
instituting a vigorous search for the
would-be murderer.
1t seems by the testimony of sever
al of the occupants of the building
who witnessed the occurrence, that
Thompson, who is a drug fiend, en-
tered the enclosure an hour before
the tragedy and standing on the
wooden walk, leaned against the
building with his eyes closed, appear

QUIET WEDNESDAY

NEW YORK, Sept 23.-The tran

ket fell today after the turmoil of
yesterday formed a strong contrast.
The transformation was SO sudden as
to appear unnatural and was for that
reason made the ground for some
suspicion and for reserve in specula-

MAY GUST HASKELL.

NEW YORK, Sept. Est became
known at Democratic headquarters
tonight that several committeeman
are preparing to use every influence
to bring about the removal of Gov
ernor Charles N. Haskell from the
office of treasurer of the national
committee. This is a result of the
publication of charges that Haskell,
as governor of Oklahoma, declined to
permit the state to prosecute the
Prairie Oil company, subsidiary of
the Standard Oil company.
Pending consideration of the reply
of President Roosevelt to William j.
Bryan's letter asking that the presi-
dent show proof of the charges made,
National Chairman Mack has taken
no action in the matter, nor would he
state tonight what the outcome might
be with reference to the Haskell mat
ter, although his attitude is known to
be much opposed to continuance on
the committee of anyone whose affili-
ations are proved to be with corpora
tions which are opposed to Bryan. 1t
was made plain by the national COM
mitteeman that when Governor Has
kell was selected as treasurer there
was not the slightest knowledge that
any charge or suggestion could be
made against him with regard to his
attitude or reported connections with
railroad promotion and that Bryan
himself had no knowledge of the mat
ter. Chairman Mack declared today
that if charges against Haskell were
proven he would expect him to re-
sign.

who are the guilty. Squire gave me
