NEW RULE
ON STEAMERS
Every Alien Outgoing Passenger
Must Be Certified by
Captains.

Eleventh hour steamer ticket pur-
chasers may he discouraged by the
steamship agencies because of a new
rule, or the enforcement of an old rule
with new trimmings. Inspector-ln-
| Charge Brown of the federal immigrant
station has received notice that in flu
ture every alien passenger leaving on
a steamship for an alien port must be
duly placed On the manifest, and that
manifest pass through the customhouse
and the immigration service before the
captain may order his vessel out. There
is no penalty if a captain leaves with
out checking up, but the next time he
passes through the officials have the
right to refuse to pass him out, and,
therefore. the captain is not likely to
forget what he has to do.
Under the regulations steamship com
panies were ordered in the past to pro-
vide manifests carrying the names Of
all departing aliens, showing length of
time Of residence in Honolulu. for ex-
ample, and their intended foreign port
of deharkation. giving also name, age,
sex and nationality.
When masters Of vessels want to clear
, they file these manifests with the col
lector of customs. but these manifests
| do not always contain all the names of
| those who left on the steamers. The
| federal officials have found instances OF
where people, about five minutes before
sailing time. have purchased tickets and
then did not go, making another pc
| culiar disarrangement of the manifest
TO which the captain has certified that
! all the passengers sailed.
| Now the government has devised q
| scheme by which each ticket is pro
vided with a coupon, and the coupon is
| torn off as the passenger goes up the
gangway. These coupons are punched
| together and the captain certifes to
them, and they are then conveyed to
| the customhouse and then to the immi
| grafton officers and filed at the time the
captain clears.
| The immigration officials are some
what III the dark about the manner in
which the coupons are to be passed IN
| and certified to before a vessel sails
A passenger has a right to 90 aboard
the last moment, and the coupon torn
| off few minutes before the scheduled
| customs and immigration officials
| would, under strict Interpretation OF
| the regulation, have to be certified to
| by the master and then passed into the
| federal offices. A more liberal interpre
! taton will be asked for by the loca
officials.

Looking for a Scrap.

All this has created an unpleasant
impression at the summer capital. The
feeling prevails that. after all, Colonel
Roosevelt is out for trouble and that no
matter how hard President Taft tries
to obtain harmony the break is bound
to come sooner or later. This feeling
is so strong that influential Republican
congressman, who have been TO Beverly
in recent days. have advised that the
President, al the first opportune mo-
ment, welcome an issue squareIy be
tween himself and Colonel Roosevelt.
They believe he would find an advan-
tage in doing so and would have the
sympathy Of many who have been
Colonel Roosevelt : admirers. one Of
these Republican congressman said here
today that the Colonel would keep the

Mail Special to The Advertiser)
BEVERLY, Massachusetts, August
29.-The summer capital has had an
other week politically fervid. 1t has
been iammed full of party activities.
Persons of note have been coming and
going, Decisions of moment upon the
conduct Of the campaign and upon the
administrator have been coming thick
and fast. Much Of the time the golf
games have been abandoned in the in
terest of public business, but for the
moment there is little let-up and the
President has gone away to Dublin,
New Hampshire, some eightvfve miles
distant by automobile, to spend the
week -end with his secretary of the
treasury. Hon. Franklin MacVeagh.
The trip to the secretary's beautiful
summer place. on slightly spot in the
New Hampshire hills. affords the Presi-
dent a little sureease. His last long
automobile trip was a little more than
week ago 10 Milford, Massachusetts,
some fifty odd miles away, when he
was the guest Of Governor Draper and
cruised for nearly a day in the rural
country where his ancestors dwelt. Mr..
MacVeaeh invited the President into
New Hampshire quite long time ago,
and his acceptance is noted in some
quarters as a fresh proof that there is
no brick wall between the mutual
friendship and regard which the Presi-
dent and Secretary MacNeagh have for
each other.

New idea Faction.

Governor Franklin Fort and Repre-
sentative Il. {. LoudensIager, both Of
New Jersey have been here during the
past week, to talk over the troubles in
. that State. The New Idea men in
Jersey are fomenting factionalism and
there IS some doubt whether the differ
ences can be reconciIed before election
+ day The seat Of the difficulty is
chiefly in North Jersey. The obstacles
! to Republican victory in New York are
not being moved out Of the way. al
! though something may be done % that
end before November comes.
One Of the encouraging features
about the whole situation is that a
realization Of the dangers IS now reach
ing TO Republicans Of both factions
and this may bring cessation Of the
pickering till after the election. That
event Is now nine weeks away and the
! character and prospects Of many a Re
publican campaign has been changed n

Peace in the Family.

The secretary has been spending his
summers at Dublin for quite ten years
Last summer he journeyed down to Bev-
erlv several times for conference with
the President, and has done so two or
three times this year Often he comes
and goes by motor. for it is a very
beautiful ride, all the way up through
Lowell and along the Merrimac River.
Only few days ago the secretary rode
down TO the North Shore in his auto
mobile to be present at dinner which
Mrs Letter Of Chicago and Washington
gave to the President and Mrs. Taft.
The secretary tarried bit at the Presi-
dents cottage, and at the President s
invitation went aboard the Mayfiower
to witness the presentation of the Presi-
dent Taft cup, Of massive silver, to
Charles Francis Adams, 2d. who had
won the sender races off Marblehead
from Spanish shippers.
Every little while somebody puts out
the story that the President and Secre-
tary MacVeagh, who, like Secretary of
War Dickinson. is a Democrat, do not
get along well together. The report has
been even more persistent than stories

Taft's New York Explanation.

Events have moved so rapidly from
dav to dav that the Vice President
Sherman episode now seems far in the
background. The President 5 letter to
Chairman Lloyd Griscom of the New
York county committee, declaring that
he had had no hand whatever in the
selection of Vice-PTesident sherman for
temporary chairman of the Saratoga
convention of New York Republicans
and had favored the nomination Of ex-
President Roosevelt for that place, came
like a bolt out Of the blue. All in all.
it has been the biggest political item at
Beverly Of all the summer.
But the heavy party firing that re-
suited from that letter has been far
away in the distance, chiefly IN New
York. The President has held his
silence, both before and after. His
pride was touched by the attempts to
draw him unfavorably into the New
York fractional contention. He kept
silence during the issuance of threaten
ing pronunciamentos anonymously pro
Guced at Oyster Bay. And since he
wrote his letter, making it plain that
he thought Vice President Sherman had
not dealt frankly with him, he has con
trIbuted nothing further to the subject.
VicePresident sherman has been Just
as silent, but ex-President Roosevelt
has been fastening westward and hav-
ing something to say every few hours
directly or indirectly bearing upon that
subject. re has issued challenge for
q finish fight to the upstate leaders
with whom EicePresident Sherman is
associated. He went into the Vice
President 5 home town of Utica and
while in that vicinity, endorsed can
didate for office whom the Niee-Presi
dent was opposing.

MANAGERS REPORT,

THE company owns a contiguous group
of nifty three patented mining claims sit
uated In Wasatch, Utah and Salt Lake
counties. aggregating S3o.21 acres. on
which the principal development consists
OF a tunnel extended from the eastern
side or tho mountain $500 feet The OBJ
pcCtlvo point OF this tunnel is the limo
granite contact which was prospectcd TO
some extent upon The surface near the
summit OF the mountain, where consd-
ersble low grade and some very high
grade ore was developed. Upon the sur
face the formation appears TO dip slight
ly to the eastward. toward the tunnel.
and taking tho apparent dip into con-
sdcrntion, It was estimated that the con-
tact would bo reached within 5000 feet
from the portal and at vertical depth
of about 1900 fcet. At the present face
OF the tunnel. however, the formation
is dipping TO tho westward and II the
dip remains unchanged. IL is possible
that II will be necessary to extend the
tunnel about 600 feet before encounter
Ing the contact,
'The mine was permitted to lie idle
during the past winter because OF the
extremely high cost of operation in WIN
ter on account OF the deep snow. In
was let to extend the tunnel 800 feet,
and 200 feet of this contract have now
been run. II the contact Is not reached
in the next 100 feet, the management
may let another contract for addi-
lional 800 feet TO be run next summer.
''AI a point 1886 feet from the portal,
a porphyry dyke was unexpectedly en-
countercd. as It does not show on the
surface. This porphyry averages IL per
cent copper throughout where explored.
and stoDe WAS started on q small shoot
OF ore, from which one car OF copper
was shipped. Al a height of seventy
five feet above tho tunnel level. the por-
phyry was replaced by lime. and the ore
shoot so scattered that II could not be
followed. II was practically impossible
to sink u wnze on the ore because of
the large flow Of water developed In the
tunnel.
Until early spring of this year this
company has been the only operator i'm
this part OF the district. and has been
prospecting on large uneNplorcd terri
tory alone. The Snake Creek Mining
and Tunnel company is now driving u
tunnel north and somewhat nearer the
base OF the mountain to crosscut about
the same kind OF formation through
which our tunnel is being driven. and
IL is possible that their development may
be of value to this company. both in
mineral discovery and deep drainage, as
their tunnel will be considerably lower
than ours.

tors, the old board consisting of Jesse
