proposed armament.
Plans are under way by the naval
authorities to equip Deer Island, upon
which is situated Boston's house of
correction, with several large guns,
either of the IL or 14inch variety. The
guns will cover both channels and the
sight of them may cause many prison.

to think twice before leaving.
When Congress convenes an appro-

The cost of installing the armament
will be about 100000. The government
has already bought the land on the
island where the huge weapons of de-
fence will be placed, paying 100000
for il.
It is also expected that six-inch or
eight-inch guns will be installed on
the new government reservation at

A LUCKY STRIKE
Long Lost Mexican Silver
Mine Is Located
The Ancient Naranja|, An
Old Spanish Bonanza.
Two Americans Report Their Good
Luck at San Francisco.

2Ar Francisco, Feb. 14.-If the be-
iici' Of two prospectors, just returned
NON Mexico, is substantiated, they
will have discovered in long aband-
oned silver mine in the state Of Dur
ango, one of the most famed of the
old Spanish bonanZas, the ancient
Naranjal, which has been lost to civ
ilization for a century and a quarter.
The miners are J. r. S. kinnersley and
his father-in-law, James w. Shaw,
both of this city They have a Mexican
partner, Francisco Saons, who they
say accidentally discovered the mine
and disclosed his secret to Shaw, who
sent for Kinnersley and the three Or
ganized an expedition. After a haZ-
ardous trip that led along the ledge
of yawning chasm of great depth,
the old mine was reached. 1t is said
great quantities of virgin silver were
disclosed by picks.
1t is supposed that landslide shut
out the old wagon trail that once led
to the mine, effectually plotting out the
bonanza.

MORSE WINS A SUIT.
Will Recover About $4,000 from a
Brokerage Firm.

Boston, Feb. 1l.-Judgment has been
rendered in favor of Charles w. Morse
in the suit that he brought against the
brokerage firm Of John Wallace g. Co.
for an accounting of the transactions
they had carried on for him.
The firm interposed a demurrer, but
Justice PlatZek in the supreme court
last week overruled it as frivolous and
decided the case in favor of the plain
tiff. The matter will now be sent to a
referee. John F. Mcintyre, Morse's
counsel in the suit, declared last night
that he believed that ultimately his
client would be awarded about $4,000.
Morse's account with John Wallace
& CO. was opened before the panic of
1907. AS collateral he put up 200 shares
of the Hudson Navigation Co, 17,2S7
shares of the Consolidated Arizona
Smelling Co., 1880 bonds of the same
company, and 100 shares of the Gar
field National Bank.
Morse contended that he had an I'M
derstanding with the firm that they
would not sell these stocks till his mar
gins We're actually exhausted and I'M
less they could get the par value of the
securities.
He claimed in his suit that Wallace
& CO. had sold him out contrary to
this agreement and he also alleged that
they had not, in accordance with his
instructions, given orders to specialists
to make purchases of stock for him,
but that they had conducted these
transactions themselves.
From the complaint in this suit the
inference was drawn that Morse, while
he was in the Tombs, had been play
ing the market. 1t was said that he
was able by means of runners to spec
ulate from his cell and to make a good
deal of money.
This was, however, denied last night
by Mr.. Mcintyre He declared that
Morse. after his conviction, confined
himself to saving what he could from
the wreck of his fortune. He had
good deal of stock of doubtful Value
under his control, and by preventing
this from being thrown on the market
at one time and disposing of it only as
the opportunity offered he was able 10
reduce his losses.
From another Of the counsel en-
ployed by Morse after his conVicuoh
IT was learned that Mrs. Morse was one
of his chief assistants in this watching
of the market. Every morning she
nosted him on the opening, and she
learned to note the significant changes
during the day. Through her Morse
was able TO Judge when 1t would be
90 fc for him to let any Of his securities
