urgent appeal of Secretary Garfield
tor an appropriation OF one million

on at once by the secretary should
favorable action be taken on his rec.
ommendation, It being his iuteution
TO ferret out every trace OF alleged

ives, who will conduct investigations
into the smaller cases OF alleged
graft In the public domain. while
the older special agents Hho have
received thorough training in the
field, will handle the more Difficult,
cases.
An interesting phase Of the case
is that since Secretary Garfield
made his first estimate OF a half
million dollars for conducting the
proposed investigation, reports re.
Gently have reached him tending TO
show that the frauds are so exten.
sive that the original estimate will
fall far short Of covering the eX.

such appropriation" declared Com.

Secretary Garfield, IF he more than

Bonnre Lassie Comes
 All he Way From Old CornwaU

John Williams and Miss Katie Samp, son were married last night by Key E. G. Decker of the Methodist church at the home of the groom's brother, C. II. Williams, on Bailey hill. The off cial witnesses we're George H. Williams the groom's brother, and R. II. Allan, Others who were present at the cere- mony and partook of the supper after wards were, William Ross, Mr. and Mrs. Robert Allan, k. Vinton, MT. and Mrs. G. H. Williams and Master G. II. Williams.
 The groom is sturdy young black smith in the employ of the Old Do minion company, with a host of friends in the community. The bride, who ar- rived in Globe Thursday evening, comes from Penzance, Cornwall, England. She is pretty young woman of charm ing manner, and last night she was as bonnie a bride. in her blue dress as one could well wish to see. She left her home in the Old Dart two weeks ago and had a stormy passage across the ocean, but she found pretty home waiting for her on North Hill street, for Williams had improved every hour of the time by planting flowers and shrubs and otherwise beautifying the nest he has built for her.

GOOD ORE IN RYE
THIRTY-FIvE FOOT VEIN PENE. TRAPPED IN DRIVING OF
 TUNNEL.

Late news from the property of the Rye Copper company in Tonto basin is highly favorable, and encourages the belief that with adequate development 1t will be come mine of great size and value. E. F. Eisenhour received word from the mine by telephone on Friday that the tunnel had penetrated about thirty-fve feet of high grade ore, the character of which had ehanged to a considerable extent from red oxide and carbonate to sulphide, and water was increasing. The whole face of the drift was in good ore. The tunnel is in about 205 feet and has attained vertical depth on the vein of 200 feet. A cross. cut was started yesterday and it is con fidently expected that the ore body will be found to be quite wide, as indi- eated near the service. The crosscut will be driven to the footwall. which is fully 250 feet from the tunnel MT. bisenhour will leave for the mine in a few days.

CONFESSIONAL ELEMENT TURIN ISHED PRINCIPAL VOLUME
 OF BUSINESS.
SMALL REVISION HOPED FOR
rarT's INAUGURAL ADDRESS IS \ MADE BASIS FOR MUCH
 BETTER FEELING.

NEW YORK, February 27.-The pro fessonal contingent was active today Bpring the short session of the stock exebange, which ended the short week, and their opening showed great variety and irregularity. The strong upward impetus during the first hour carried prices to the highest level since the de norslized break at the opening of the week
 The earlier strength was reflection to some extent from the foreign mar lets, where the brightening prospect of 4 settlement between Austria and Ser via is hailed with weleo opie relief.
 Opc.utoIs who profess, to have read Taf, $ inaugural address express sat isfaetiOE at It's tenor, and belief that business confidence would be fostered by its contents. There were in eircula. ton well defined reports that prospects were shaping to moderation in the re- vision of the tariff and the force of events in the steel trade might be ex- pected to have their influence in that direction
 The small net changes at the end of the day, in spite of considerable vol nme of transactions, offer strong pre-. nmptive evidence of sales on account

PAINE, WEBER & co.

NEW YORK, February 27.--Irregu- larity continued but the markets under tone showing greater frmness every day. Steels and copper were notably firm, Wall street is getting over it's fright and taking saner view, with renewed activity. The. prospect of i'm mediate tariff revision is reassuring. Looks to us as though stocks were on the upward grades again. We do not expect boom nor uninterrupted ad- vance, but do expect upward tendency and advise buying on all dull spots.
