TEXAS MAN HAS
GOLDEN SECRET
He Claims to Know Where
100000 in Coin Was
Buried in l848

Austin. Tex. Nov. 3o.-An Austin
man claims to be in possession of a
plat showing the location of $lOO. 900
gold belonging to the government and
buried by United States army Officers
In 1S49. The plat is drawn on paper
apparently Of the vintage Of 1s4S. The
holder Of the map now seeks to finance
a company to purchase the land said
to contain the treasure and prospect
for the gold.
According to his story the gold was
originally intended for the payroll of
soldiers at Fort Stockton. The detach.
ment conveying the gold was attacked
by Indians. whose intent was to loot
the treasure, carried in sacks. The
officers Of the detachment resolved on
ruse and emptied the gold, filling
the sacks with rocks and sand which
were buried. The Indians captured
the camp and dug up the rock and
sand sacks.
Meanwhile the detachment had been
able to escape the marauders, but an.
other band of Indians was encounter.
ed. which compelled a real burial Of
the gold. The Austin man now claims
this gold was never resurrected. The
three officers of the detachment and
the men are dead, he says

WOOL GROWERS
OPPOSE CHANGE
Do Not Want Tariff Rates
Changed-Expect Fight
in Congress

Washington, Nov. 30.-Headed by
Senator Smoot Of Utah delegation of
wool growers from the west, Including
representatives Of the National Wool
Growers association and the state as
soctations Of Utah and Wyoming have
seen President Taft and explained to
him the conditions governing the WOOL
growing Industry throughout the
country.
The wool growers admitted that
they did not know what the tariff
board would report. but said they felt
that the wool industry could not with
stand any reduction in the tariff. They
said that they did not intend to let
their case go by default: that they felt
that the tariff would figure largely in
the approaching session of congress
and that they intended to remain here
to visit the members of the house and
senate, and explain to them the situa-
tion in the west.
President Taft refused to commit
himself on the subject of the tariff He
merely said that his recommendations
to congress on this subject would de-
pend largely on what the tariff board
would report. He said that the board
was made up Of two Democrats and
three Republicans. and that the mem
bers had been instructed not to permit
judgment. The president said that he
would be content to rest his recon-
mendations on the fact that should be
submitted by the board, as result of
its exhaustive investigation of the
woolen business.
Neither President Taft nor any 9TH
or official In Washington is concerned
over the rumors that the tariff boards
report will merely be a pile of sta.
istics. There never has been the
slightest intention to have the tariff
board report a tariff bill. All the
members OF congress understood that
the sole function Of the tariff board
was to gather facts on which a tartr
bill might be framed.
One OF the members of the tariff
board said yesterday:
1T Is not easy to understand why
there Is any agitation about something
that has been known to everybody for
months: 1t always has been under
stood that the tariff board would con-
fine itself to facts. and not encroach
on the ground occupied by congress.
This is what all members Of congress-
Democrats. insurgents and Republic
cans-insisted upon. and what the law
creating the tariff board provided. Our
function was to collect all the facts
showing the cost Of production in this
country with reference to the cost
abroad. We were to get data ON
which scientific bill might he pre.
pared. We have gathered them, and
will send them to tho president
Will Not Settle Question.
1t never has been expected by mem.
The evening times. [volume] (Grand Forks, N.D.) 1906-1914, 1911-11-30

bers of congress that the tariff boards
report would settle the tariff question.
It Is admitted by Republicans that the
time has not yet come when. by agree
ment between both parties. the tariff
can be omitted from a political strug-
gle. So long as it is regarded as an
issue between the parties. so long will
the tariff boards recommendations be
attacked as too high or too low, ac-
cording to the political viewpoint. The
facts will be ready for congress, how.
ever, and will furnish the basis for
nonpartisan revision of the tariff,
should the parties agree to such a re-
vision, without regard to the political
effect.
There is no expectation among eith-
er the Democrats or the Republicans,
In view of the fact that the tariff is
still political issue and a big one,
that the manufacturers will stay at
home and take 1t for granted that the
tariff will be settled in a nonpartisan
and satisfactory manner. The wool
growers are but the vanguard of all
the other business interests soon to be
represented in Washington, prepared
for the usual tariff struggle.
President Taft expects the tariff
boards report to be clear, and to fur
nish ample material for a revision of
the tariff that would satisfy the coun-
try

MONSTER Of DEEP
WANTED TO FIGHT
Pursued Schooner For Miles
Seeking to Engage It in
Battle

Houston. Tex, Nov. s0.-An un.
known monster of the deep, forty fee,
in length. copper colored and with q
head over fifteen feet in width. fol
four days and nights played tag with
the fishing schooner Mendocino an6
when the schooner allied to respond
vainly tried to push it out of the sea
The fish appeared the second da.
out. coming to the surface about a
half mile astern Of the Mendocino and
all Of the day could be seen leisurely
disporting itsel as it kept pace with
the ship.
For three days the fish kept astern
of the vessel when it decided to per.
feet a closer acquaintance. Putting on
speed 1t came abreast of the ship and
started some antics which caused no
little corncern aboard the ship. Run.
ming along side it would scrape itself
against the side Of the vessel, scott
ahead and then roll and lay on its
back until the vessel caught up. Then
1t would dive under the vessel or swim
around it as If in play.
Evidently the fish became disgusted
over the failure of the vessel to play
and planned d fight. The watching
sailors suddenly saw the fish. sweeping
leisurely astern, suddenly disappear.
A minute later the vessel shook from
stem to stern as though hitting rock.
1t keeled little. but righted itself as
the fish came to view at its side. Div
ing again and again the fish jammed
its blunt nose on the bottom Of the
vessel. the result being only a tremor.
Failing to make the vessel play or
fight the fish rose to the surface and
with mighty slap of its tail on the
mater sank from view. A few mo-
ments later it was sighted a mile
astern. swimming from the ship. That
was the last seen Of it.
The monster evidently was well
along in years for 1t was covered with
barnacle, some as large as saucer.
Revolver or rifle balls fired from the
deck of the Mendocino at close range
had no effect.

SECTIONAL WAR
IN PARLIAMENT
Eastern and Western Canada
at the Parting of the
Ways

Ottawa, Nov. 30.-That there must
be lowering Of the tariff and wid-
ening of markets, so far at least as the
west Is concerned, was the keynote of
q vigorous speech delivered last even
ing by Hon. Frank Oliver. former min.
lister Of the interior. Mr.. divers opin-
Ion was endorsed in strong terms by
the speech Of w. NJ. Martin of Regina,
who warned the east that IL It would
not meet the west at least half way,
In the bringing about of these condi-
tions, then 1t need not be surprised II
q division. not at present existing,
should eventually come between the
eastern and the western provinces Of
the Dominion.
The government members. said Mr..
Oliver. had declared that reciprocity
was dead. Reciprocity meant an agree
ment between two countries. and SO
far as that Interpretation went. it was
dead. But in so far as 1t meant re-
duction of taxes and an expansion. Of
trade, Il was never SO alive as at the
moment When the question came to
be tried out again the policy of lower
taxes and larger markets would win
for Canada, The mistake which many
OF the government speakers had made
was that they had mistaken the voice
Of Ontario for the voice of the Domin-
ion. Mr.. Oliver dwelt largely upon the
part which he said the trusts and com.
bines had played In the result Of the
recent election.
It had been said that economic ar
guments had been brought into play
against reciprocity but there could
never be any valid economic argu.
ments against reduced taxation and
wider trade.
Monopoly in Canada.
Mr.. oliver. In championing the west
ern view Of the subject. quoted certain
figures in connection with the Cock.
shut Plow company. This company.
he said. sold certain gang plow In
Ontario for $500. The same imple-
ment was sold In the west at prices
ranging from that to $6S5. but in Min.
neapolis the same plow. after paying
fifteen per cent duty, was sold for
$500. It was no wonder. said he, that
interests such as this heaved a sigh Of
relief at the defeat Of the pact.
"The result Of this election" declar-
ed the speaker emphaically. has fas-
tened upon Canada such monopoly
as has not yet been fastened upon any
country. and the leader for the gov-
ernment 10 responsible for II. So far
as the battle having been ended. r
would say that 1t has only just began"
w. NJ. Martin Of Regina. delivered
a fighting western speech: The west
had stood solid for reciprocity. indeed
the only fault which Saskatchewan
had to hnd with the pact was that It
did not 90 far enough. as a resolution
passed unanimously In Its favor In the
provincial legislature bore witness.
