COLORADO PERMA-
kENT EXPOSITION

II present plans are carried out the
Colorado Permanent Exposition to be
established in the Chamber of Com
merce building in Denver will be one
Of the show places of Colorado, Much
interest is being manifested in the
plan by the various counties of the
state, and to further stimulate this
interest SO that the competition among
the counties for the best exhibits dis
played will be the keenest kind, the
Denver Chamber OF Commerce has
announced list of prizes for such
exhibits that reaches in value $4,000
The largest prizes offered are for
the best county exhibits. The grand
sweepstakes of $500 in cash win 90
to the county making the best coll
leetive exhibit. wh!le prizes OF 5000
each VII be offered TO the counties
making the best grain exhibit; the
best fruit exhibit and the best min
eral exhibit. To the county winning
the first award for three years a $500
silver cup VIII be given.
In addition to these prizes indi-
vidual exhibitors viii be awarded
prizes donated by the merchants Of
Denver These are all valuable prizes.
and TO win any Of them the individual
exhibit must form a part o, the coun-
y exhibit.
The plan OF a Permanent Colorado
Exposition in Denver has been the
dream of many of the most enthus-
iastic coioradoans for years. and I
now seems as though the plans under
way will bring this about The Los
Angeles exposition is a point of in
terest for travellers from all parts of
the country. Colorado at the present
time has nothing of this kind. AMI
scores OF inquiries are made daily a.
the Chamber OF Commerce building
as well as Denver hotels regarding
such an exposition where the visitor
may see for himself what Colorado is
doing.
The complete prize list for the ex-
hibitors in the Permanent Exposition
has been prepared by S. D. Clark. d.
rector OF exhibits. and is being sent
to the various counties and individ-
uals interested. The plan is to have
the displays sent TO Denver by No
vember Is in order that the work Of
may be commenced with
out delay.
Information regarding the Colora-
do Permanent Exposition has been re-
ceIved by business men and others
interested in the growth of the coun-
ty. and 1t is likely that this county
will be among those 10 make exhibits
in Denver. The exposition there viii

Heavy Indemnity for Slaughter of
Chinese at Torreon.

Mexico City.-An indemnity Of 49,
900, 900 pesos will be demanded of
Mexico by the Chinese government
for the slaughter of Chinese subjects
in Torreon. The demand will be
backed up by a cruiser which is on
the way to Mexican west coast ports.
Three investigators returned Friday
from Torreon and placed in the hands
of Shung Hal Sung, charge d'affaires
of the Chinese legation, a detailed re-
port of the carnage. This shows 1903

a most inhuman manner, and hat be-
sides a bank and club house, eighty
nine places of business were sacked.
In addition to the indemnity, an
apology for insult to the Chinese flag
will be demanded; also that aid be ex-
tended to destitute families Of the vic
Tins; that the guilty be punished, and
the constitutional guarantees of pro-
lection to Chinese lives and property
be made effective.
Or the II, 1000, 900 pesos indemnity,

MAOERO HAS NO OPPOSITION
viii Be Chosen President Of Mexico
and viii Be Supported by Do La
6arra and General Reyes.

Mexico City.-There now seems no
doubt that Francisco l. Madero will
be chosen president Of Mexico. In
fact 1t does not appear that he has
any serious opposition. His election
Is regarded as an assured fact.
In an interview On Saturday, Ma
dero said: III l should be eelcted
president, Senior De la Barra will be
minister Of foreign affairs and Gen
eral Reyes will be minister of wal in
my cabinet"
This was after a meeting between
Madero. President De Ia Barra and
General Reyes.
The meeting was accidental. Ma
dero had been comforting with Presi-
dent De la Barra about the political
situation when General Reyes arrived.
Madero was asked to remain. Frank
discussion of the situation resulted.
In talking of the meeting General
Reyes said: ut is true that l am
going to be minister of war If ,Senor
Madero is elected. / am not going to
be a candidate for the presidency or
participate in the elections.
Just before you came" he said to
the interviewers, "a committee called
on me to ask me to be a candidate
for the presidency, but l told them l
intended to be a member of Senior
Madero's cabinet if he is elected.
ITO offer myself as a candidate
might mean a confusion which would
produce anarchy, and / can assure you,
President De la Barra, Senior Ma
dero and myself will work earnestly
and necessarily to prevent such a
Madero's remark that President De
la Barra would return to his recent
post of minister of foreign relations
is looked upon as an indication that
new government will contain rep

have a stable effect on the future ad-
ministratiOn.

FIND GOLD. CACHE
ENORMOUS TREASURE DIscoV.
EREp OFF HoNDURAN COAST BY
CALIFORNIA EXPEDITION.
Immense Quantity Of Gold Hidden oy
Crew Of Chilean Cruiser Over Twenty
Years Ago Found by Expedition
Backed by CIubman.

San Diego, Gala message received
here from a party OF treasure seekers
aboard the steamer Eureka, says their
expedition to recover an immense
cache of gold, hidden by the crew OF
a Chilean cruiser off the HOnduran
coast more than twenty years ago, has
been successful. The treasure a
been v~ariously estimated at from $15,-
900, 900 to $65, 600, 900, according to re-
ports circulated here of the Eureka's
quest. The steamer is now headed for
this port.
The Eureka is in command of Cap
tain Burtiss and was taken on a thirty
day charter by a party of San Fran
cisco people about two weeks ago.
The expedition is said to have been
financed by Harry Krelling, a we'll
known clubman of San Francisco.
The map, showing the location of the
buried treasure, is said to have been
in the possession of a former resident
of Honduras, who succeeded in inter-
esting Krelling in his story of the
buried gold.
The fact that most Of the South
American republics will not allow the
expectation of gold, made it necessary
to guard the plans of the expedition.
