CURIOSITY LEADS WOMAN
INTO FINDING GOLD MINE
Mrs. Blanche Trigg Notices Slug

Claim.

BY the Associated Press.
ALBUQUERQUE, N. Mex, October 4.
Curiosity. says G. H. Hayes, Portland
minerologist. may bring a fortune for
Mrs, Blanche Trigg Of Santa Fe.
The basis Of the prospective wealth is
an abandoned gold mine, possibly OF
Spanish origin. Old Stag from an un-
ascertained source aroused the curiosity
Mrs. Trigg found the Stag several
weeks ago while walking along the Ric
Percho near Hillsboro. As there ap-
parently was no smelter thereabouts, she
asked Hayes to make o survey.
Hayes reported today he found the
mine on Government land nearby, with
evidence that Spaniards had worked II
with baskets. He said Mrs. Trigg had
fled a claim and hired four miners and
that the ore assayed 1854 in gold, $5.71
In silver and 81 In lead to the ton.

DUTCH FARMERS REQUEST
NEW DUTY ON U. S. FRUIT
Agricultural Organizations Ask for
Tariff Levied Per Kilogram
Rather Than on Value.

By the Associated Press.
THE HAGUE, Holland, October A.
The three central Dutch agricultural
organizations have requested the min
ister for economic affairs and labor to
raise import duties on foreign fruits and
to levy them per kilogram, and not on
the value.
They propose duty Of 10 cents -four
United States cents) per kilogram.
In their request they say that the i'm
ports ought to be hampered in this way
because otherwise the American fruit
growers will continue to bring. at any
price, their produce into the Dutch
markets
American apples are sold here for far
lower price than the Dutch apples and
for this reason the growers oppose the
duty being placed on the value.

CHINA PROPOSES
TREATY TO SOVIET
Japan Worried Lest Pact
Should Precede Her Own
Accord With Russia.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
TOXIC, November 4-The foreign
Office disclosed today that it had def
mite reports China had approached So
Wet Russia with a view to resuming
diplomatic relations.
A spokesman said Eli Amoh, Japa-
nese charge dafaires in Moscow, had
inquired of the Soviet foreign commits
sariat concerning such reports.
The Soviet government replied, the
foreign Office said, that w. w. Yen, the
Chinese delegate at Geneva. recently
had proposed resumption of relations
to Maxim LitUnoff, the Soviet delegate
there.
The Soviet officials informed the Jap
anese charge that Mr.. Yen had made
this proposal on the basis of the treaty
OF Peking, signed in 1924, adjusting af-
fairs between Russia and China.
The Soviet officials were further
quoted as saying there was no further
progress in this connection and that
the proposal was pending, although M
Litvlnof opposed revival of the 1924
treaty. 1t was understood Mr.. Yen pro-
posed resumption of relations pending
negotiations of a new treaty.
Thus it was officially intimated that
Japan was wondering whether Russia
and China, the northern and southern
neighbors Of Manchukuo. would reach
an agreement before Russo-Japanese
relations were placed on a surer footing

stitutionality Of an article of the Louis
lana constitution, requiring that a citi
zen applying for registration as voter
must be able to interpret any clause in
the Constitution. was upheld yesterday
b. Judge Wayne G. Borah in Federal
District Court.
The decision dismissed for no right
or cause of action the suit for $4,000
damages brought by Antoine NJ. Tru
deau, colored, against Charles S. Barnes,
registrar of voters for Orleans Parish,
charging alleged deprivation of the
civil right to register as voter in cleo
tions."
Trudeau contended that on June l6.
1881, when he applied for registration
he was illegally refused for alleged
failure properly to interpret a clause
of the Constitution.
Judge Borah cited decisions of the
United States Supreme Court holding
that educational requirements for voters
were constitutional as long as they did
not discriminate between race or color.
