800 SIGN APPEAL
FOR ELIMINATION
OF DEATH CURVE
Citizens Demand Action
On BeItSviIIe Peril

BELTSVILLE, Md, May 27.-A
petition bearing the names OF
more than 800 Beltsville residents
requesting immediate action for
elimination Of the death curve
on the Washington Baltimore
Boulevard at Beltsville, will be pre-,
sented to the Prince Georges

$50 names of bona fide residents
and that number may be doubled
by Tuesday.
JURY ASKS ACTION
Last month the county grand
Jury, in its report to the circuit
court, reported it had made q de.
tailed survey Of the dangers at the
curve and asked immediate action
of the county and State roads au-
thorities in curbing the evil. Elec-
ton Of traffic lights at the inter
section of Montgomery Road and
the boulevard was suggested.
According to the report, five
persons have been killed at the
curve in the last two years and
more than a score seriously
injured. 1t was pointed out that
an accident occurs at that point
at least three times a week. Since
the grand jury made its report
two other persons have lost their
lives on the curve.
SENT TO BOARD
Last Tuesday, the county board
Of commissioner voted to send
the grand jury report to the State
Roads Commission with a request
for immediate action either in
eliminating the curve entirely or
the erection Of satisfactory safe
guards for persons entering the
boulevard from Montgomery Road
It was pointed out at the com.
missioners' meeting that the ma.
tUre of the curve would necessi'
tate erection of two or more lights

AMERICANSLEAD
EUCHARIST PLEA
FOR PEACE, FAITH
mo Chosen People, Cry
of Catholic u. Head
BY GEORGE BALINT

BUDAPEST, May 81 GN.SD.
With appeals directed towards
peace and against nationalism and
radicalism, Americans today took
an important part in the thirty
fourth Eucharistic Congress.
Dennis Cardinal Dougherty, OF
Philadelphia, presided as 1000
American pilgrims crowded the
Corso Film Theater from II a. m.
to 1870 p. m. to hear leaders dis
cuss questions Of faith and the
brotherhood of man.
RTvALRIEs DEPLORED
After an opening prayer led by
the cardinal, a letter was read
from Bishop John F. Noll, Of Fort
Wayne, Ind, in which he urged:
Catholics should regard
themselves as citizens Of an in
ternational kingdom. Christ
never wanted rivalry among ma
tions and kings.
"All international peace and
disarmament conferences have
failed, but the international eu'
charistic congresses should be-
come more successful in bring
ing peace to mankind"
DR.. James GilliS, president OF
the Catholic University at Wash
ington, D. c., agreed.
The church." he said, is
neither racial nor national. But
the notes of nationalism and
racialism are reappearing in
religious life. This is the re-
birth of "free Christian pagan
ism"
NO CHOSEN PEOPLE"
Catholics must know that
there is no chosen people, be-
cause peoples are equally chosen
by God.
Christ repudiated national
Ism.
According to Eucharistic prin.
ciples, every man is identical
with Jesus-so are all our broth
ers in Austria, all parts Of Spain,
and Ethiopia, and Russia, and
If I lay hands on a brother I
lay hands on Christ himself.
Universal and permanent
peace can only be obtained
through Catholic principles"
The congress reached a brilliant
climax last night in a pageant on
the Danube, in which 1000, ,00(
awed spectators, a majority hold
ing lighted candles. knelt as the
Blessed Sacrament, attended b!

INCREASE VOTED
IN COTTON QUOTA
Joint Committee Seeks to
End Hardships-Tobacco
Boost Eliminated.
By the Associated Press

~ tne Associated PreSS.
A joint congressional committee at
tempted to remove some Of the hard
ships Of the 1898 farm act yesterday
BY voting to increase acreage allot-
ments Of cotton farmers 1,052,000
acres this year.
The change, proposed in the form
OF an amendment, would increase each
cotton States quota per cent. The
previously announced national total
was 26,300,0O0 acres.
The committee, considering amend
ments passed separately by the House
and Senate, eliminated a similar per
cent increase in flue-cured tobacco
acreage for this year. The increase
was proposed by Senator George,
Democrat, of Georgia and approved by
the House.
It also dropped House provision
which would have given Arizona, Cali
fornia, New Mexico and Oklahoma
special treatment in cotton acreage
allotments.
Gillette Amendment Discarded.
A Senate-approved amendment by
Senator Gillette, Democrat, of Iowa,
intended to prevent substitution of
wheat for corn as live stock feed,
also was discarded.
Provisions by Chairman Smith,
Democrat, of South Carolina for
speeding up payment of the $l30, ,000,-
600 bonus payments on the 1887 cot
ton crop and for paying a bonus Of
$l.25 bale to growers who sur
rendered title on loan cotton to the
Government also were rejected.
Senator Smith said the group sug-
gested he rewrite his proposals into
Z separate bill.
Bankhead Explains.
Senator Bankhead, Democrat, OF
Alabama, one of the conferees. said
the cotton increase would be used
within each State to adjust any
hardships" under the formula of the
original act.
He explained that in some counties
the total cotton acreage was INSULT
cient to provide small farmers with
minimums of acres or less This was
the first purpose of the increase.
The committee approved provision
BY Chairman Jones, Democrat, OF
Texas of the House Agriculture Com
mittee, which fixed a floor and cell
ing for cotton allotments."

GOVERNOR IS
FIGHTING FOR
METAL TARIFF

HELENA-Acting Gov. Hugh R
Adair wired Montana's congression-
al delegation today to oppose the
proposed reduction of tariffs on lead
and zinc ores and metal.
The acting governor wired Sens.
Wheeler and Murray and Reps. o.
Council:
"The mining interests of this
state are considerably agitated over
the proposed new reciprocal agree
ments with Great Britain and Can
ada wherein it is proposed to lower
tariffs on zinc and lead ores, slabs,
pigs and also lead and zinc products.
This would be most detrimental
TO the Montana lead and zinc mining
industries and we trust that it will
be possible for you to give the mat
ter your study and consideration
to the end that the existing tariffs
be not reduced in the forthcoming
agreements

MINES HANDBOOK
OFF The PRESS

In spite OF unfavoTable market
conditions which made financing
difficult for new ventures. the for
nation OF mining companies and
svndicates continued on an active
scale throughout Canada in 1897.
During the year hundreds of new
corporations commenced operations
while scores of others, some of
which had been dormant for years,
secured fresh capital and resumed
work. approximately 20 companies
entered the ranks of producers and
al the year end at least as many
more propose to start production
during 1898. Ten companies made
initial dividend payments during the
period.
Reflecting these Importance chang
es in the industry. the Canadian
Mines Handbook for 1898, which
has just been issued, is much larg-
er than any previous edition, run
ming to 400 pages and treating
5.319 companies. This all time re-
cord compares with AHA last year.
3.744 two years ago and 2,724 in
1884.
The Handbook shows that approx
imately 1900 mining companies
were operating in 1887, after strictly
those that were not
active. Some $50 new companies
and syndicates were formed and
acquired properties. while so old
ones were revived.
An eight-year range of quotations
on mining shares traded on the
Toronto Stock Exchange is given
with other data, including a sched-
ule of brokerage commission rates
on leading exchanges and OF pro-
yincial and federal transfer taxes.

MONTANA OIL

No sooner had the first shallow
wells been opened in Pennsylvania
than the oil seers appeared. In
1889 David T. Day, head of the
U. S. Geological Survey, solemly
declared that the nations oil would
last only a few years. That was in
the good old horse and buggy days.
At that time the prediction that
millions of horseless carriages would
fit across the nations roads. con-
suming more than 20, 100000. 900
gallon of gasoline in a single year,
would have been regarded as DOWN
right silly.
A quarter OF a century later,
in 1915, the U. S. Geological Sur
vey issued a report estimating oil
reserves at 7,5OO.OOO.OOO barrels.
Yet during the next 20 years nearly
twice that amount-14,26O.OO 900, 900
barrels-was taken from the earth.
In 1921 the same agency reported
100000, 900 barrels available. and
in 1884 reported 1920, 100000
In 1915 the American Petroleum
Institutes Committee on Petroleum
Reserves estimated known reserves
at 12.177,OOO,OO0 barrels. since that
time more than 100000 900 bar
rels of oil nave been brought to
the surface. Despite the enormous
use of petroleum in this automobile
age, the committee now estimates

Another attempt to suspend as
sessment work on mining claims is
being made in congress this year
under a bill introduced by Sen.
Johnson. California. according to
press reports from Washington.
Under the law, claim holders
must perform 500 worth of work
each year to hold mining claims on
the public domain, until patented
There are thousands of claims in
Montana that have been held with
out a days work since the depres-
sion. Mining men agreed with the
suspension until the last two or
three years when it became apparent
that the suspension was serving to
delay rather than encourage both
employment and mining develop
ment.
While few mining men have
nerve enough TO openly oppose the
measure in years past the Mining
Association of Montana at Virginia
City last fall passed resolutions OPP
posing any further suspension OF
assessment work. This attitude will
probably be sustained this year and
a more determined effort will be
made to get congress to refuse fur
