WHEAT MARKET STEADY.

CHICAGO, April 2l.-The wheat market was devoid of any sensational features and the volume of trading was small compared with the enormous transactions of the last few sessions.
 With the exception of a brief period at the opening when prices ranged only a trifie above the low point of the previons session, the market displayed cor siderable strength despite the pre-
 o:derence of bearish gossip in the days news. Buying of more than L. 000,00o bushels of July delivery by one of the leading elevator interests here was the feature of trading and one of the chief reasons for substantial up turn in prices.
 At the opening prices were IS ani IA higher to 3-S lower, with July at ll2 3-S to ll2 3.i. In the first half fFhour July advanced about one cent, but re- acted again on profit taking. Toward the end of the first hour, however, the market became strong again and con tinued firm the remainder of the day The high point for July was reachci at IA 5-S.
 Final quotations were at 1l37S to ll4.

MINING DECISION IS FAR REACHING IN
 EFFECT
RULING or NEVADA JUDGE ON CLAIM ASSESSMENT WORK
 VERY IMPORTANT

Judge Peter l.. Somers of the district court of Nevada, is to be congratulated upon the sensible decision recently handed down in ease in which the ownership of mining claims was at tackled upon the ground that sufficient work had not been done to properly comply with the assessment act, says the Los Angeles Mining Review. Brief ly, the chief points in the case were as follows: A nonresident owned four claims in the Goldficld district and sent $400 to certain contractors with the in structions that $l00 of work be per formed upon each claim. The contrae tors did certain amount of work, but the claims were subsequently relocated by other parties upon the plea that suf- fcient work had not been done. With a proportion of common sense, which is so often lacking in judicial decisions, it was ruled that the good faith of the owner must be taken into consideration and that as the greater part of the money went into the ground, the exact measurements of the excavation could not be taken as the only evidence bear ing upon the ease.
 It must be apparent to ail that such a decision is eminently just. Any otber ruling would let down the bars to con. spirators who might be in league with contractors, receiving such sums as would, at the same time, furnish fur ther cause for temerity on the part of non. n.resident investors. While it does not remove the necessity for extreme caution on the part of the owners, it does carry assurance that the courts of Nevada, stand ready where possible, to proctect the investor against roguery when he has shown his bona fides by endeavoring to comply with the law under which the property is held.
 Judge Somer's decision is in striking contrast to that of Colorado federal judge who recently decided that the laws were not made for tho protection of fools, and it is also refreshing in comparison with the rulings of Judge Willis of the Superior Court of Los An gcles county, who recently turned loose two of the worst fakirs in the history by opening to them the baekdoor of trivial technicality. What the mining business needs is series of such de- cisions along the line of common sense. We should then hear less of the, fool who is barred from the law in Colorado, and we should be nauseated less by the fakir who now stalks unmolested through the streets of this city to prey upon whom he may devour.

EIGHT INCH LEDGE
HIGHLY FAVORABLE INDICATIONS REPORTED FROM ARIZONA
 MICHIGAN MINE.

From Superintendent \. 4. Nelson of the Arizona Michigan it is learned that the shaft at l58 feet has cut eight inches of ledge matter, showing little or no copper as yet, but it's importance can be better determined today. No Known vein was expected to be encoun- tered at that depth.
 The shaft of the Superior & Globe, which is down about l55 feet, has been in manganese scanned with lime, for several days, which shows no copper, but may carry some silver. The man. ganese is considered, however, favor able indication for ore. The location of tho shaft on the surface is about $50 feet northwest of the outcrop of the Yuma vein, which is mot expected to be cut by the shaft above 800 feet from the surface.

RICH COPPER FROM BLACK HAWK
 W|NzE
ASSAY RETURNS SHOW NINETEEN PER CENT COPPER BELOW
 45o-FooT LEVEL.
FAST WORK AT EUREKA SHAFT
SURFACE IMPROVEMENTS BEING RUSHED RAPIDLY FORWARD
 TO COMPLETION.

Nineteen per cent copper is the assay
 return from a sample of ore taken yes
 terday from the Black Hawk winze of
 the Arizona Commercial Copper com
 pany, at depth of l30 feet below the
 450-foot level. The ore was not as. saved for silver, but probably runs ten or twelve ounces in the white metal, as
 does the ore in the adjoining Great
 Eastern mine at the same depth. The Black Hawk winze has only about twen- ty feet to go to reach the 600-foot level, at which depth drift will be run 300 feet east to the Great Eastern line and also west to connect with the drift from the Eureka shaft, the winze and shaft being about 600 feet apart. The Black Hawk vein on the intermediate level, at the winze, is forty-fve feet wide, and at the Eureka shaft is be. leved to be sixty or seventy feet wide, judging from the fact that the Eureka shalt was in the vein for length of feet below the 600.foot level.
 The vicinity of the Eureka shaft is a busy place, and construction work is advancing rapidly. Grading for the ore and coke bins was completed some time ago and will soon be finished for the shelter; also, grading for the high line railroad spur to the ore and coke bins will bu ready for track laying within a few days. The warehouse and office building was finished more than a week ago ,,nd is now occupied.

NEWBRANCH VALLEY ..sSs s'i' ss,xSs RAILROAD UNDER
 SURVEY
WILL RUN FROM CUTTER TO TER MINAL AT EUREKA SHAFT OF
 ARIZONA COMMERCIAL.

For the past week Southern Pacific engineers have been surveying for a line of railroad to connect Cutter on the main line of the Gila Valley, Globe & Northern with the Arizona Conner cial railroad at its terminus near the Eureka shaft. The new road if built would not be 10 exceed seven miles in length, and it's construction seems req. sonably assured. The proposed branch from Cutter would serve the Arizona Commercial, Iron Cap, Superior X Bos- ton, Arizona-Michigan and Superior & Globe companies, and will soon be a necessity to relieve the congestion of freight on the Old Dominion and Ari- zona Commercial railroads, which is al. ready becoming troublesom, and causing delay in the delivery of freight as well as expense for switching and demurrage The branch from Cutter would have a very even grade of about two per cent and would not be expensive to build

The above production compares with an output of 26,054, 900 pounds in Feb ruary, 27,376,000 pounds in January and 22, TAP, 900 pounds in March, year ago.
 The above figures do not indicate much of a curtailment in Arizona pro duction. The Copper Queen and Old Dominion companies could, however, easily output 2,0000O0 to 2,500,000 pounds mors than they are now doing, and Arizona copper production would undoubtedly be upon s basis of above 30,000,000 pounds per month if copper was selling two cents pound above its present level.
 Some large lowgrade low-eost prop critics are now in process of develop ment in Arizona, such as the Miami and Inspiration properties at Globe, and the Ray Consolidated at Kelvin, but it will be two years before these companies are substantial producers.
 It is apparent, however, that pro duction of 5o,O00,00O pounds of copper per month from Arizona is in prospect within 6 comparatively few years.

LAWYERS EXPLAIN STATUS
OF VENEZUELA'S AFFAIRS
Attorneys in New York Representing
Southern Republic Issue Opinion
of Situation

NEW YORK, April 13.-Messrs. Pace,
Stimson and Arroyo, New York attor-
neys representing the Venezuelan gov
eminent, have issued an opinion on the
present situation in that much troubled
republic.
The statement is in reply to recent
reports from Washington that doubt is
felt as to wether Senior Castro had
legally abdicated his office of president
or acted within his rights in leaving the
country.
The lawyers declare that Castro was
constitutionally ruled out of office and
that the acts of Senior Gomez. who has
since been made president, were legal.
They base their opinion upon an in
dictment presented to the high federal
and cessation court by the attorney
general of Venezuela, which is author
lied by the constitution to take cog
nizance of all cases of impeachment of
the president of the republic, or of the
official acting in such capacity.
In conclusion, the attorneys say that
1--WE are of the opinion that Gen. Gomez
is constitutionally the acting president
of Venezuela, and as such entitled to
exercise all of the powers of president
as conferred by the Venezuelan consti-
tuition, and that therefore all treaties,
appointments and other acts by, or at
the instance of Gen. Gomez since he be-
came acting president are valid in every
respect and strictly within the letter
and spirit of his country"

RECOVER COLLECTION OF
MAN KILLED BY SAVAGES
AnthropoIogist's Tragic Death Re-
veaIed in Detail by Federal
Investigation

MANILA, April 13.-The party re-
Gently sent out by the government to
Investigate the circumstances connected
with the murder by Ilongote tribesnen
of Dr. William Jones' a noted anthro-
pologist, connected with the Columbian
museum in Chicago, has recovered the
valuable collection made by the scien-
fist during his two years stay among
the wild men of the interior. The spec
linens will be sent to the institution in
Chicago.
Members of the party learned addi-
tional details of the tragic death OF DR..
Jones. 1t appears that he had been
warned that trouble was in store for
him and had started to leave the coun-
try where he had been studying the
natives at close range:
He returned to the head waters of
the Cagayan river to secure boats in
which to carry his collection down the
river and unwittingly crossed the dead
line that had been established by hos
tile Ilongotes. He was met by party
of warriors, who offered him a dish OF
fish as a token of defiance, in accord
ance with tribal custom.
Not suspecting that he was accepting
their challenge by so doing, he ate the
fish and was attacked Immediately.
The warriors wounded him many times
with their spears, but he managed to
fight them off with his revolver until he
reached boat, in which he escaped.
DIR. Jones was so severely wounded,
however, that he died five hours later,
and his body was rescued from the
river by friendly Ilongotes. A native
servant also was attacked at the same
time, but escaped uninjured, saving the
scientists revolver.

ACCUSES MINERS OF

TRAGEDY NEAR FRENCH GULCH
PARTLY EXPLAINED

Tells of Threats Received
Night of the Crimes

REDDING, April 13.-New light was
thrown today on the mysterious tragedy
enacted near French Gulch two weeks
ago, when the throat of Gregory Milano
was cut from ear to ear, causing death.
and the skull of A. Franco crushed by
blow with a hammer.
The men, both Italians, had started
with fellow countryman, Philip Leo.
to walk from French Gulch to Tower
House, and as Leo disappeared after
the crime he was suspected of being
guilty of the murder and assault.
Franco recovered consciousness today
for the first time since his skull was
fractured and made statement re-
garding the affair.
He cannot remember having any
quarrel with Leo, who accompanied Mi
lano and himself on the road in search
of work. They were met, he says. by
two miners, who told them that no
"dagoes" would be allowed at the mines
and warned them to leave the country.
Leo asked an officer for protection. but
none was afforded.
The three Italians proceeded toward
Tower House At this point Frances
memory lails him, though he Is ex-
pected in time to be able to recall sub

WASHINGTON, April ia medal
In gold. the gift of the French govern
ment, commemorative of the restora-
tion of San Francisco from the fire
and earthquake of three years ago, Is
to be presented to the authorities or
that city by. Ambassador Jusserand, In
person, between May 20 and 20.
The medal was designed by Louis
lsottee, winner of the ancient prize OF
Rome, and one of the best known
French medal designers. On one side
is depicted allegorically the city of
San Francisco laying aside it's shroud
and issuing forth from the ruins, while
on the other is represented France
presenting a branch of laurel to Amer
lea.
The medal is offered to the American
people and the city of San Francisco
as a token of sympathy and admiration
by the French republic
M. Jusserand, in a letter asking the
offices of Secretary Knox informing the
San Francisco of the instructions he
had received, gave a brief history OF
the incidents and motives that inspired
his government in presenting the
medal.
Congress, in 1894, directed that a
single gold medal be struck to COM
memorate the two hundredth anniver-
sary of the birth of Benjamin Frank
lin, and presented to the French re-
public.
Where Idea Had Origin
M. Jusserand received it from Secre-
.tary Root at Philadelphia about three
years ago, and the ambassador in his
response expressed the earnest hope
that one of the next medals to be
struck would commemorate the resur-
rection Of San Francisco.
M. Jusserand in his letter to Mr..
Knox also said:
1.-THE words 1 spoke thus spontane-
ously turned out to agree so exactly
with the sentiments of my country that
the government at once appropriated
them as it's own. It consequently de-
cided to justify them, while at the
same time the inhabitants of the de-
vastated region were, on their part
setting about to restore their city in
it's original beauty with the very
energy and success that 1t has been
so easy to predict
Gin conformity therefore with the
wish which / took the liberty to ex-
series of those which have marked
from time to time ever since the ear
Hest days of American independence
the persistence of the sympathies
which arose at the very beginning be-
tween our two countries, from the
medals which commemorated the
speech of the alliance and of freedom
down to the one which a popular
French subscription enabled to be
struck on the tragic death of Lincoln
and to the one, finally, which the
American republic offered my coun-
try"
