The American loss was one private

Captain Biram's cavalry, with few
scouts and constabulary and a detach-
ment of sailors under Lieutenant Com
mander Signor, located and attacked
the outlaws in the mountains far from
the coast. The Moros fed and took
refuge in a large cave. The column
of troops and sailors surrounded the
place, but Jikiri refused to surrender.
A concerted attack was made, the
Moros fighting desperately in the
mouth of the cave until the last mem
Der of the band was dead. AS yet but
few details of the fight have been re

Jikiri was one of the most famous
outlaws remaining in the islands. Ever

DEATH LIST CUT.
Annual Patriotic Carnage is Greatly
Reduced.

ntQQCtQs
Chicago, July 6.-With three days
celebration of the nations birthday
this year, the remarkable fact stands
out boldly that the annual carnage has
been decreased to great degree. Ad-
vices from all points up to midnight
show that in all large cities new rules
and their strict enforcement have
checked the customary slaughter of
children.
In New York there were but four
deaths for the three days. In Chicago,
usually drenched with blood under the
guise of patriotism, there was not a
single death for the three days. In
Washington there were no deaths and
no injuries, and only the smallest FIRE
crackers were permitted.
Five deaths are reported from the
state of Massachusetts, one each in
Boston and other large cities. One
death is reported from Philadelphia.
The entire state of Oklahoma reports
but two deaths and nine serious injur-
les. Small cities in New Jersey ano
Pennsylvania and Far Western locali-
ties seemed most patriotic in casual
ties this year. In every case this car
be traced to lax police regulations.

GOLD ORE AS BALLAST.
Santa Re Road Bed Rich in Precious
Metal.

Chicago, July 5.-Officials of the
Santa Fe road are inclined to believe
that through the accidental discovery
of gold and copper in the ballast used
on the Belen cutoff new rich mining
district will be developed in the Man
zano mountains in Torrance county,
New Mexico.
A fact that adds romantic interest
to the gold discovery is that the region
is adjacent to the deserted city, which
is supposed to have been Spanish and
which is known as Gran Quivera.
There are legendary stories of old Span
ish mines which are supposed to have
been productive hundreds of years ago,
but which were abandoned. Now that
gold has been discovered in the region
these stories are being revived and
many are flocking into the mountains
and are stalking out claims everywhere.
The discovery of gold is largely due
to one of the engineers of the com
pany, who is located at the general
offices in Chicago. Not along ago this
engineer was walking track between
Belen and Willard and while in deep
cut he picked up chunk of ballast
which had a chemical stain upon it.
The stone was brought to Chicago, and
it was found to be highly infused with
gold. Some of the ballast which was
being used on the Belen cutoff was then
sent for and was found to assay about
SO worth of gold to the ton.

Powers Block Russians.

Pekin, July 6.-Great Britain, Aus
tris-Hungary and the United States
have notified China that they do not
recognize the preliminary agreement
between Russia and China devised for
administration of the Russian railroad
area in Manchuria- These powers de-
clare also that the laws affecting the
right to reside in the international set
tlement in China must originate with
the treaty powers. The negotiations
on this subject, which were opened last
month, are now blocked for an indef-
mite time.

RAISES IT'S PRICES.
Beef trust Says Cattle Are Scarce
and Corn High.

1CEf ft6@N 0Nf% aAAC ~ 2 0S0f -
and Corn High.
New York, July 5.-The beef trust
has again ordered the price Of it's pro-
duct raised. Fourteen cents pound
for pot roast to % cents for porter
house and sirloin steaks is the price.
Thirty cents will be demanded for the
latter cuts in a few days, while aver
age beef will cost the dealer 10I cents
pound, as against the hitherto pre-
yailing price Of 10 cents.
The high price Of corn and the scar
city Of cattle are the reasons assigned
by the trust for the increase in prices.
AS to why cattle should be any scarcer
now than at any other time no answer
is forthcoming.
Retail butchers explain that the
working people are too poor TO buy
beef; that there is a lessening in the
demand and consequently raising in
the price. 1t is pointed out that Pat
tens corner in wheat has increased the
demand for corn as an article Of human
consumption, and that therefore the
price of that grain has 30 increased
that it is no longer profitable to raise
corn-fed cattle.
The officers of the beef trust in the
East are very reticent in discussing
the condition of the beef market.
When an expression of opinion was
sought from the representatives of the
big leaders in the trust, such as Ar
mour's and Swift's, the inquirer was
referred from one official to another.
Finally a vague statement was made
to the effect that the market was nor
NAL and that existing prices were due
to natural trade conditions.

An interesting example OF the value
Of a small stream for light and power
purposes may be found near Szcra-
mento. Cal A trout stream has been
damned up and the power in the form
Of electricity has been used for doing
such light work as washing and iron
ing. also for cooking and lighting in
the home OF the owner. As the stream
is very small during the dry months,
an old miners ditch has been damned
to form a reservoir OF 100000 cubic
feet capacity. The plant cost 1880
and in a single year has done 500
worth of work.

New York, July 5.-More than l.
600, 900 persons, cne-third the popula-
ton of Manhattan, left this city Satur-
day to spend the holiday and week end
in the country. II was the greatest
exodus in the history of New York and
riot several times was sverted among
the throngs that filed the steamboat
piers. Every trolley car, train and
steamboat was taxed to its capacity
and more than 80, 600 men, women and
children were compelled to return to
their homes because the excursion
craft could not accommodate them.

Il should not be forgotten that the
spring Is the proper time to prepare
the alfalfa crop that Is to be planted
next fall. The ground which ia ex-
pected to be used for this crop should
not be planted to small grain; neither
should corn precede alfalfa, because
the ground will not be kept free Of
weeds and grass The best prepare
tory crop for alfalfa is COW peas; then
after the vines are removed or ploved
under the ground should be we'll
broken and kept clean Of weeds and
grass By surface cultivation until II
is seeded in alfalfa the following fall.
Peanuts may be grown instead Of COW
