Remains of COrtez

thrill has been sent through Spain
by the announcement that the remains
of Fernando Cortez, the conqueror of
Mexico, have been discovered. The To-
Gus of the burial of Cortez has been a
subject for dispute, for the conqueror's
bones have lain in more than one tomb
since his death in 1541.
Before they were placed in the Jesuit
church in Mexico in 1894 they had re-
posed in convent. But in 1923, at the
time of the revolution, the body was
removed, and only the pyra midal
mausoleum remained. Some asserted
that the collins were taken to Italy,
others to Seville, while the view OBJ
tanned that the body had never left
Mexico.
The coffins, although removed from
the tomb, have been found in the
church, and a Paris contemporary re-
marks on a fact that would doubtlessly
have interested Lombroso greatly and
that is the smallness of the Uranium.

Where Francis Bacon Lived.

F'ulwood's Rents, the little Holborn
court leading into Gray's Inn Gardens,
which will be largely rebuilt, is so
named from the Fulwood family, one
member of which became a famous
royalist, says the Westminster Ga
zette. II formerly possessed the priv
ilege of Sanctuary" and hence became
a notorious resort for fraudulent debt
ors and. still more unpleasant char
acters. Yet this -dingy dive" can boast
of many glorious memories. Francis
Bacon lived here in "Fulwood's House, .
and valued his furniture at ESQ. huge
price for that period. Here the Whig
club, and Melbourne and Oates club,
met in the reign of Charles H., and
here stood Squire's coffee house, from
which several numbers of the Spectator
were dated.

Taking Dead Down Mountain

WELLINGTON, Wash, March 6.-No
bodies were recovered from the ava
Ianche wreckage today, workmen de-
voting most of their efforts to the task
of taking the ones already removed from
the snow down the mountain to Scenic.
The work of taking the bodies down
fe mountain trail is dangerous and
difficult and the men worked all morn
ing and most of the afternoon at the
task Thirty bodies were taken down
the mountain and placed in baggage
cars to be taken to Everett and Seattle.
The weather today was much pleas
anter than yesterday. The storm of
the last 10 days cleared away and for
the greater part of the day the sun
was shining brightly. Late in the aft
ernoon a light snow began to fall, but
it is not believed that there will be a
serious storm.
Good progress was made with the
work of clearing the track, and it is
now predicted that the line will be
opened to Wellington by the end of
the week. AS soon as the track is
cleared and the railroad is able to get
wrecking apparatus to the scene of the
disaster the removal of the dead will
be greatly facilitated.

Since Prince George OF Servia threw
up his claim to the throne he has been
amusing himself at. among other places,
Vienna Recently, says N. A. P, he had
q curious experience there.
Being in the company of a party of
ladies who were busy in killing time, -
one Of the fair Austrians suggested that
the prince should try his skill as a
marksman. She challenged him thus:
Il challenge you, after the manner of
William Tell, to shoot my earrings
away with two shots-one for each or
nament."
The prince took up the gauntlet and
fired two shots in rapid succession at
the length Of the drawing room. The
pearl earrings fell TO the floor. leaving
the plain gold rings in the lobe of the
ear untouched.

.BURROW FOR DEAD
IN MASS OF SNOW
Five Hundred Men Digging to
Recover the Bodies of
Railway Workers

VANCOUVER, B. c., March 6.-Thirty
bodies have been found in the great
mass of snow, ice, rocks and trees at
Rogers Pass, 40 miles east of Revel-
stoke. where an avalanche buried 62
workmen engaged in clearing the
Canadian Pacific tracks of debris
brought down by an earlier slide.
Twenty-Five of the bodies recovered
are those of white men. the others be-
ing the bodies of Japanese section men.
The local officers of the Canadian Pa
cifc adhere to their estimate of 81
dead, as they have carefully checked
the lists of employees.
Five hundred men are at work and
the railway company expects to have
the line open for traffic by tomorrow
night 1t is expected that most of the
bodies will have been recovered by that
time.
DANGER OF MORE SLIDES
The danger of more slides is immi-
nent. Rain and sleet have been fall
ing for two days and tonight a ter
rife snowstorm is raging. The wind
blows through the pass with terrific
force and the workmen are greatly
hampered in their task.
Passengers on westbound express No.
81, which is held at Field. having been
caught between Two SllQeS. narrowly
escaped the fate which overlook the
passengers caught in the Great
Northern disaster at Wellington, Wash.
last Tuesday. The train, carrying
more than 100 people, had barely
passed point short distance east
of the field station, when an avalanche
swept down the mountain, burying
1000 feet of track under 25 feet of
snow and debris.
This was the slide that bottled the
express, and until the obstruction at
Rogers pass is cleared away. the train
will be held at Field.
WILL NOT DETOUR TRAIN
The eastbound express which left
Vancouver this afternoon will not be
detoured via the Crows Nest route, as
it is believed that the main line will be
clear by the time the train reaches
ReveIstoke tomorrow evening.

East Africa threatens to bring about
the complete determination of the
larger mammals within about half a
century. despite the restrictions applied
to this form of sport by the authorities,
according to the London Globe The
most appalling destruction is that of
the elephants; the number of tusks an
nually imported into Antwerp alone
represents the slaughter of no fewer
than 10000 elephants.

USES OF MANGANESE.

Pyrolusite, which contains about
60 per cent manganese, was used
by the ancient Egyptians in decol-
oring glass-that is, making it clear
or transparent-fo the addition to
this mineral to glass sand in some
way neutralizes or counteracts the
effect OF the iron, which gives to
glass green or other undesired col
ors Pyrolusite is still used for
this purpose, but ores or alloys of
manganese are now more largely
used in making alloys with iron,
steel, copper, aluminium and other
metals, in making chlorine, bromine
and oxygen, and as disinfectant,
as we'll as in galvanic batteries and
in bleaching, dyeing and painting.
Spiegeleisen ("mirror iron"), So
called from its brilliantly glittering
surface, and ferromanganese, both
alloys of iron and manganese, are
prepared chiefly for use in metal
lurgy, especially in steel making.
Some manganese steel is so hard
that it is almost impossible to work
it with machines or tools, so that
it must cast in very nearly the
form desired for use.

NEVADA HEADS THE LIST.

In compilation of dividends
paid during the past eight months,
the Mining World finds that 100
American mines and metallurgical
works distributed among the share
holders $4S,301,333, which, added
to the dividends previously paid by
these companies, brings their total
disbursements up to $665,O6O,659,
"a 119 per cent return on their
$594,124.957 combined issued CAP
italization.
While this does not include the
dividends paid by many close cor
porations and other smaller inter-
ests deriving pecuniary benefit from
the mining and metallurgical indus
tries, it is fairly representative OF
the profits made as a result of le-
Ultimate mining.
The so-called gold-silver-lead pro-
ducers lead in the total amount
paid during the year, having $780,
741,721 to their credit to the $751;

Far in the lead of the mines of
the above class is Goldfield Consol-

year of $5,33S.647 or more than
40 per cent of the total paid by

THE BUSINESS SITUATION.

The leading financial authority in
the approaching autumn's turn
over of commodities is destined to
be reflected directly in the move
ment of stock market values. it is
certain that the underlying condi-
tions, including the crop outcome,
the liquidation of debts, lower rul-
ing rates of money and credit, to-
gether with larger railway incomes,
are all calculated to relieve the
strain and to strengthen confidence
in the essential soundness of the
business situation generally.
Liberal receipts of grain, espe-
'cially wheat and oats in the interior,
of new crop growth, are calculated
to help the market estimate of
stock values, because of the bearing
,of grain movements on railway
earnings. The fact that nine lead
nearly 1000 bushels of grain a
day is encouraging because it
means the addition of 1000 car
loads of freight in each twenty-four
hours to the business of the grang-
er railroad group.
Within week the new CONNER
cial year begins in the cotton trade
and the movement of that crop
will quicken the pulse of exchange
with outside cities and ease the
financial situation. which has been
involved in rather heavier loans
than usual from eastern to south
ern and western banks.
A more rational faith is taking
the field in the constructive work
which lies ahead of the country for
a long forward pull later
