MONTE CARLO NEW CAMP.
Near Winnemucca Which
Promise To BE Important.

During the week an excitement
was started at Monte Carlo in the VI
.cinity of the Carpenter Black Dia-
mond mine, within a short distance
of the Western Pacific grade between
Winnemucca and Hot Springs.
Some time ago several prospectors
discovered body of rich gold ore
and commenced work on the same.
Ii is now shown that the vein is about
10 feet in width, and appearances
point strongly to an extreme depth
with width and values improving.
Assays found on the surface bring
returns of over $500 as an average,
and indications are that vast area
of ground will be covered by this de-
post of ore, as many locators report
paintings of free gold in the district
at all localities. Among the number
TO secure the best ground in the vi
cinity, c. Carter and George Gingery.
the proprietor of the Buch hotel in
Winnemucca, were on the ground
first, and the reports from the ground
secured by them are such that de-
velopment work will be commenced
within a few days. Mr.. Carter, in
speaking of this district to the Ga
zette correspondent, stated:
Though / have had much expert
ence in prospecting various sections
of this country during the past two
years, no districc strikes me as ia
vorably as that in the vicinity Of
Shawney Springs, though ] will ad-
nit the mineral deposits elsewhere
are as good as can be found any
where. The reason for this state
ment is that paintings from all the
ground for over two miles in width
and five miles in length will prove
that nuggets from the size of pin
head TO that of pants button can
be secured. | believe that Monte
Carlo will prove to be bonanza, and

The attitude of the evening paper
toward Roosevelt is about as certain
as its attitude toward the Western
Federation. 1t seems to be a matter
of which way the wind blows from
day to day On the last previous oc-
casion that its owner had charge of
the editorial pen, the evening paper
was an out and out Roosevelt adj
miration society. Also 1t was for
ninst the Federation. Then the edi-
tor journeyed to the north, bought
some supplies for the state police and
returned home to write Federation
stuff straight from the Haywood text
book. Lately this has been supple
mented with attacks on Roosevelt,
who the lieutenant governor prac-
tically charged on Tuesday with en-
cheering a big grating scheme with
Spreckels and Heney. Little as we
like some things about these men, we
believe fully that they have been
honest in the conduct of the much
needed house cleaning in San Fran
cisco and that the extension of I'M

called for, foundationless slurs in
connection Herewith at this time is
not a mark of good citizenship.

the past eight months the money
value of our exports is IN excess OF
the imports by $50 millions. The
record in the past has been 500 mill
lions in any one year. In eight
months We have exceeded the record
by 30 millions, with the probability
that for the entire fiscal year the ex-
cess of exports over imports will he
700 millions.
These figures we note somewhat
disturb some anonymous gentlemen
described by the correspondents as
foreign exchange experts These
experts would prefer that this con-
trast he not maintained for many
months.
This contrast will be maintained
just as long as the buyers and sellers
find 1t to their interest to maintain
it. Fortunately these operations are
largely automatic. II We keep on
selling and decline TO buy the pur-
chasing power of our customers will

II is to be considered that out of
this excess we have TO pay ocean car
riage: we have to pay the expenses
of that large army of international
tramps designated as the American
traveller abroad, and we have to pay
interest on bonds and securities held
abroad. This goes far to reduce the
ordinary difference. but ii falls short
of the very large so-called balance
of trade exhibited during the past

THE VENEZUELAN CLAIMS.

thorities at Caracas 10 restore the
claimants to their just rights. This
is state of affairs, says the secre-
tary, which should not and cannot
be permitted TO exist. The arbitra-
ton of the cases is once again re-
quested, and from the tone of the
communication it may be inferred
that a refusal of this request will
justify this government In taking CO.
ercive measures. OF course, denial
of justice may become the founda-
ton of redressive Intervention. par

The American government has all
ways been reluctant TO take such a
step where only propriety and con-

American citizen has suffered injury
to his person nor been restrained of
his liberty. As rule concessionaries
and holders of repudiated debentures
of bankrupt states have been relegat-
ed to their legal remedies, il any;
and if there he no remedy in law the
claimants have been constrained to
pocket their losses as they would

CHINESE SMUGGLED
ACROSS BOUNDARY

Detroit, Mich, April 14.-The Free
Press Y
Through the bitter rivalry of three
Canadian organizations for smuggling
Chinese into the United, States, IA
wholesale scheme of bringing the or
ientals originally across the interna-
tional border here at Detroit has been
discovered. 1t is said that some nights
as many as rs Chinese had been
struggled across the line and that sew
eral comfortable fortunes have been
made at the business during the past
two years by enterprising young men,,
who have made Windsor, Ont, their
headquarters.
The emigrant authorities have scant
hope of reaching h principals in the
three competing agencies, but a man
who gives his name as A. MCMann, is
held at the Wayne county Jail in con-
ncction with the capture last Tuesday
of three Chinese at Adrian, Mich. The
Cinnamon and McMann were found in
a Wabash box car bound for Chicago.
There was a dead horse in the car
and the four men were concealed under
the straw. The plan was to engage a
freight car at Detroit for the ship
ment of a horse, some worthless ami
NAL being placed in the car for q
blind.
The Chinese. it is said, have been
freely brought across the Detroit river
on the railroad car ferries, being hid
cen with the co~nnivance OF employees
on the boats until the immigration in
spectors had made their round and
then hurriedly directed to empty
freight cars. The following day they
would be transferred to freight cars,
especially engaged, and usually started
west on the Wabash train No. So,
which make only one regular stop
between Detroit and Chicago.
