STOCK MARKET SHOWS
LITTLE EXCITEMENT
(By Associated Prcss.)

NEW YORK, Jan. 25.-Develop-
ments over week end had no effect
on moving speculative interest in the
stock market. The Bank of Eng
land was permitted to take up South
African gold laid down in the Lon
don market at concession in price
and without any competition on be-
half of Paris. This is the first week
for this to happen sine the period
well back into last year, and marks
the elimination of accumulations of
gold by the Bank of France, which
has been going on during this period.
Stock market bonds were irregular.

T.B. R|CkEY MUST STAND TRIAL
SURVIVORS OF
OCEAN WRECK
REACH SAFETY
(By Associated Press.)

NEW YORK, Jan. 25.-Less than
seventy-two hours after the crash be-
tween the ocean liners Republic and
Florida off Nantucket shoals, which
eventually sent one to the bottom
and reduced the other to a state of
staggering helplessness, survivors of
this deep sea tragedy found haven
at last.
At nightfall tonight 1850 passen-
gers from the two vessels were safe
in port, being brought here by the
Baltic, while near it was the rescued
officers and crew of the Republic
aboard the derelict destroyer Seneca,
to which they were transferred from
the revenue cutter Gresham after
staying until the last moment by
their sinking vessel. The Florida is
now docked at Brooklyn.
Only the ill-fated Republic was
wanting to complete the list, and
she, too, was in the port of call,
which doubtless will prove her final
resting place, beneath thirty-eight
fathoms of water, fifteen miles south
of Nantucket shoals lightship. Fol-
lowing the Baltic into the harbor
was the Florida, battered almost to
sinking condition herself by the
force of the blow she dealt the Re-
public, and bearing the bodies of her
own three dead and injured members
of her crew. There are three ver-
sions as to what happened on the
bridge of the Florida when the Re-
publis loomed up in front of her
through the morning fog. Little
could be learned from Captain Ros-
pini. According to others who were
aboard the Florida, however, some
thing went wrong with the Florida's
steering when the collision was i'm
minent The only story is that the
quartermaster had the wheel when
the commander yelled for it to be
jammed to starboard. He put 1t to
port instead and the liners crashed
into each other Another version is
that the man dropped the wheel in
the panic when danger impended.
Both versions agree that the COM
mander felle dthe quartermaster
with an iron spike following what he
must have considered the seaman's
recreancy. The injured quarter
master was brought to port today on
the Baltic. He stoutly asserts that
he was not at the wheel when the ac-
cidenf occurred. No definite cause
of the accident will probably be
learned until both commanders make
final statements. The Florida's bows
were crumpled up by the impact
with the Republics plates, the beams
being buckled and twisted for a dis
tance of fully thirty feet. The fore
peak is full of water and the stern
high out of water.

SURVEYS MADE
FOR A SPUR TO
PIONEER PROPERTY
Especial to the Bonanza.)

RHYOLITE, Jan. 25.-Both the
Las Vegas and Tonopah and the
Tonopah and Tidewater roads have
made preliminary surveys for an ex-
tension track up into the Mayflower-
Pioneer section. The Tonopah and
Tidewater people, as stated last
week, were the first in the field at
that time, and route was outlined
which left the main line above
and circled south and
west over very plausible grade, a
distance in all of about eight miles,
up to the mines. The Las Vegas and
Tonopah has been in the field during
the last week They have also figur-
ed out a route into the place. Their
line runs up from Seatty, with the
same general direction as that adopt
ed by the other line.
The plans now being considered
by the railroad officials, and the one
that seems likely of adoption, is to
arrange for the Las Vegas company
to use the Tonopah and Tidewater
track to the junction, and for both
roads to unite on the construction of
one track out to the mines.

NATL IRRIGATION
CONGRESS WILL
MEET At SPOKANE
Especial to the Bonanza.)

OHOhANE (WdSn.)I Jan. l0.-
James J. Hill, chairman of the board
of directors Of the Great Northern
Railway company; Howard Elliott,
president of the Northern Pacific
Railway company, and possibly Gov
ernor John A. Johnson of Minnesota,
will be among the speakers from the
gopher state at the seventeenth ma
tional irrigation congress in Spokane,
August 8 to IA, when it is expected
that President Taft and several mem
bers of his cabinet Will be in attend
ance.
r. Insinger, chairman of the local
board of control and executive COM
mittee, has also received a letter
from Congressman J. H. Davidson of
Wisconsin, saying that the subjectF
of chief interest to the people of that
state are forestry, drainage and deep
waterways. He adds: =.
Having been a member of the
rivers and harbors congress for ten
years, and as chairman of the COM
mittee on railways and canals, l have
given much thought and study to the
subject of improved waterways, and
I believe much good will result to
the country generally through a cam
paign of education on this particu-
lar subject"
Congressman Charles F. Scott cl
Kansas, invites discussions which
would tend to develop the idea of
Aste responsibility in counter dis
S ttion to federal action, saying
a4@ong other things:
"There has been a rapidly grow
ing disposition all over the country
the last few years for looking to
Washington for legislation of all
sorts, particularly for looking to-
ward the conservation of the devel-
opment of national resources, with
the result that the responsibilities
are assumed here which really be-
long to the state and with the fur
ther result that the state often loses
the good effects of work which it
might do because all of the effort is
concentrated upon congress, and
when that fails to act nothing is
done
"For example, the southern Appa-
lachian states have for years been
hammering at the doors of congress
to get the national government to
buy large tracts of forest lands il,
order to conserve them, but thus far
without success. They have been SO
busy lobbying at Washington, how
ever, that they have done nothing in
their own state capitals to pass laws,
which their own state legislatures
were entirely competent to pass, and
which, if in effect during the ten
years they have been besieging con-
gress, would have gone far to cor
rect the conditions which they now
declare demand federal interference
'I am sure that a discussion OF
the comparative duties and response
bilities of the state and nation in re-
gard to the various questions, collec'
lively known as conservation prob
lems. would prove not only of inter
est but great value"
Congressman William w. Cooks
representing the Long Branch dis
trict. writes that the state of New
York is chiefly interested in forestry
and deeper waterways. adding: I'VE
however. are interested in all things
which pertain to the welfare OF the
country"

tanning the children Of the house. The
real of the parade was brought up by a
handsomely decorated float containing
twenty-five watermelons and drawn by

butchery of the melons began, after
which a sham battle was held between
the ladies and gentlemen of the party,
the ammunition being rhines. Games
were entered into heartily by all,
namely, leap frog, tag and follow the
leader, The latter causing much merri-
ment, not only to the parties taking
part, but also to the boardwalk prom
enaders who were lined up at the rail
