Will GRILL TAFT

WASHINGTON, Ju'y 10.-Pub-
lished charges that the president
had been induced by three persons
his brotlMr the then secretary of
the interior Ballinger and Richard
S. Ryan of New York, represen-
tative of the Guggenheim interests
to restore to the public domain
lands surrounding Controller Bay

of the house, introduced a resolu-
ton calling on President Taft for
all the information he can furnish

This information is to include
the reason why he signed the order
of restoration after the land had
been set aside as reserve and
whether he knew Ryan was work

FIVE CENTS
ON The DOLLAR
FROM A BANK
APPLICATION FOR OWNER TO
DECLARE A FIVE CENT DIVI-
DEND TO CREDITORS.

In the bankruptcy court in this
city Attorney Sanford made appli-
cation for power to declare a five
cent dividend to the creditors of
the Merchants & Miners bank of
Rawhide, which failed about three
years ago. The creditors of the
bank had given up all hope of ever
receiving anything from the wreck
but through the careful nursing on
the part of Receiver w. G. Stevens
and his attorney, Mr.. Sanford, a
considerable amount of money has
been collected and a number of the
notes and other collateral has been
converted into coin. A considerable
amount of the assets were DESTROYED
at the time of the fire in Rawhide,
which reduced the sum available
to a considerable extent.
Among the securities held were a
number of diamonds. They went
through the fire but were apparent
ly little damaged. They have been
sold to an advantage since that
time.
It i believed that second divi-
dend of five cents will be declared
and there is a possibility of others.
From an absolute and what ap-
peared to be a hopeless failure, the
above will be news to many deposit
tors. One account worth $4,000 was
sold for ten dollars some time ago.
The purchasing party turned it for
$40 and the party now owing the
account will more than break even
on his investment.

MEXICO CITY, July Emilio
Vasquez Gomez will resign in a
few days as secretary of the inte-
rior, according to Francisco I. Ma
dero. Upon him has fallen the re-
sponsibility of restoring normal con-
ditions in the states and his failure
to do this promptly has given a
faction of the Maderistas an oppor-
tunity to demand his removal.
That DR.. Vasquez Gomez will
cease soon to hold the portfolio of
the department of education is ru-
mored. This week he resumed the
practice of medicine. He was Ma
dero's running mate in the presi-
dental campaign and it his been
assumed he would be on the same
ticket as candidate for vice-presi-
dent this fall.

SPEAKS A GOOD
WORD FOR CAMP
OF MANHATTAN
A. Il. LOWE is IN TOWN FROM
NORTHERN CAMP-PROPER-
TIES LOOK GOOD.

A. E. Lowe, the well-known min
ing man, is in from Manhattan and
speaks in glowing words of some
of the properties in that camp. Mr..
Lowe is particularly enthusiastic
about the Big Four and says that
too much cannot be said about this
wonderful producer.
The White Caps, Swanson lease,
Bath Brothers lease and numerous
other properties are looking fine and
Manhattan seems destined to a very
bright future.
The last big run made by the
Big Four at the War Eagle mill
has been completed, and when pre-
cipitates are heard from it is
thought that the figures will total
return of over $4,000. The Big
Four has resumed sinking.

ARBITRATION IS
ABOUT COMPLETED
USE OF FORCE WILL NOT BE
NECESSARY UNDER NEW
AGREEMENT.

WASHINGTON, July 10.-With
In a week or ten days the signatures
Oh the secretary of state, Philandel
Knox, and the British ambassador
James Bryce, will be placed on the
treaty between the United States
and Great Britain to provide for the
arbitration of all questions arising
between the two countries, includ-
ing even matters of vital impor.
tance and national honor.
The signing of the. treaty will
bring to an end the negotiations be-
gun at the instance of President
Iaft and Ambassador Bryce earl
this year and will mark what many
believe to be the greatest step to-
ward international peace ever vet
taken.
some changes remain to be made
in the text, mainly in the phrase
ology, to which the greatest atten-
tlon is being given to avoid any
ambiguity or possible chance Of
misconstruction when the treaty
comes to be tested by actual re.
course to its provisions. 1t is to
be a model form which general
treaties between the
United States and other nations
will be drawn.
Only one point of substance re-
mains to be adjusted and the state
department is awaiting the last
word of the British foreign Office
on that subject. There are two WAYS
In which the object to be covered
in this provision of the treaty can
be attained; either of which would
be acceptable to the state depart
ment, so there is no reasonable
doubt of complete agreement.

SOUTHERN CAMPS
Want FOUNTAINS
EFFORT BEING MADE TO PRO.
VIDE PUBLIC WITH MODERN
CONVENIENCES.

Both Tonopah and Goldfield are
endeayoring to raise funds for a
public fountain, such as is main
tanned in this city. 1t is to be hop
ed that the effort will result in the
establishment of a public drinking
place.
The time was few years ago
when water was sold in either of
the Southern Nevada camps at so
much a gallon, and the gallon was
not always overlooking. Water was
worth more than gold and the bar
keeper would as soon think of Civ
ing a glass of whisky as glass of
water. The change of time and CON
ditions are apparent.
Both Tonopah and Goldfield have
liberal supply of good wholesome
water. To make a fire drinking
and watering fountain in either of
the towns is going step ahead. The
water supplying the mining towns
is brought in at great exuense. 1t
does not come as it does in Carson
from the snow banks a few miles
away 1t is case of pump the
water over a summit at a great
expense and gush every gallon.
As both camps are on the edge
of the great Death Valley desert it
will be fitting tribute to the prog
ressiveness of the men who are
making the great camps a success
to have free drinking places for man
and beast.
The fountain in this city is most
literally patronized. The children
come to drink, while dogs also have
their fountain and are there many
times a day. 1t is to be hoped
that the southern camps succeed in
their efforts.-Carson Appeal.

The tug-of-war between the Mon
tanas and the Slavonians will also
be a feature, and If Soldfield has
tug-of-war team, they can also. be
accommodated.
Goldfield has been shouting about
cold feet, cutters, etc. and now
they can either put up or shut up.
For the baseball game, all the locals
ask is that the makeup of the
teams be restricted to boys who
have played on the teams, and no
importations.
DR.. Mcdonnell and Willetts will
be back shortly. Willetts caught
in the first game played between
the two teams this year and Nc

went east before the series started

The Private Fortunes of Sweden.

by order of the Secretary Of the
Treasury a careful investigation was
made Of the value Of all estates Of
deceased persons for tho years 1906
1908, and a calculation based on
these figures was worked out, indi-
eating the approximate value OF the
total of the private fortunes in
Sweden, says Consul General n. d.
Winslow, Stockholm
The result Of this Investigation
gave the citizens Of the kingdom
credit for 2,197 million dollars, di-
vded among 1,23S,5OO estates viz;
In the provinces, 1022, 300 estates,
aFgroagoting 1,lSO million dollars; in
the cities. 216,2OO estates aggregat-
ing IO11 million dollars; the private
estates in Stockholm were estimated
AT 4S2 million dollars. The average
assets for each individual for the
kingdom were SiO2; for the PROV
nces $3.50, and for the cities, $500,
except Stockholm where the for
tunes were estimated at $i,425 for
each citizen.
