that snakes go blind during dog days. There is some foundation for this belief, as temporarily impaired vision occurs in snakes when they are sloughing their skins in summer but the same is true when they slough during other seasons. The eyes of snakes acquire a milky ap- pearancc shortly before the slough is cast, due to the separation of the outer layer of epidermis from the cornea, and this results in impaired vision. Ordinarily, snakes slough twice in a season; once after hiber- nation, and again about mid-sum- mer or later. Young and growing snakes shed their skins more fre- quently.

 turn of the century During the final months of the campaign, an army company occupied native village in Samar The apparent submission of the natives led the soldiers to become less watchfu The Moros bded their time until through ruse, they turned the Americans and almost annihated them. Following the massacre battalion of U. S.

insisted yesterday that all proposals
for increased armament be care
fully examined by congressional
committees before any action was
taken. He also pointed out that
Congress holds the purse strings,
and that it will determine what
appropriations for national defense
shall be made.
A conservative Democratic SEN
ator pointed out that in the past
it has been the "hard-boiled con-
servatives" who have stood for in
creases in national defense, while
the so-called liberals were attack
ing the manufacturers of arms and
every one who demanded greater
armament.
1t is understood that President
Roosevelt will, either in his message
to Congress on the state of the
Union, or in a subsequent message,
go into detail of the ornaments of
several of the foreign nations, show
| ing particularly startling figures of
air strength of Germany, Italy and
other countries. 1t is reported that
Germany has 10000 planes and can
turn out more than thousand
month in its factories.
Plane Production a Problem.
Increased facilities for the quick
production of planes is one of the
problems in the United States. One
suggestion, heard at the Capitol,
is that the administration will ad-
vance a plan for development of
dozen companies producing air.

the country. with one near Alex
andria, Va. Government loans,
if not Government factories, will
make such development possible,
according to the report.
Army and Navy officials, it is said,
are opposed to having the program
determined and handled by any
Government agency other than the
War and Navy Departments. They
want supervision of airplane produc-
ton for military and naval use.

eign nations but also to the recurring
crises" abroad They fear an out
break of hostilitieS at any time. This
country must be in position to
make other nations fear to bring us
into conflict. They point out, also,
that the Lima conference has shown
clearly that dictator governments
have already made inroads into
South America. They foresee the
possibility of establishment of for
eign naval air bases in the Western
Hemisphere, which would be threat
to the United States.

it's benefit to the Nation as a whole
and the chances of bringing about
lasting recovery in the world price.
Despite the huge amounts &C
quired by the Government since
1884, bankers have pointed out, the
world price of the metal-around 43
cents an ounce-remains far under
what used to be considered a fair
price for silver.
The domestic price as continued
for 1889 represents what mining
authorities say is an average quota
ton in the fuctua atoms of the vola-
tile metal over many years.
Out of approximately sl,000,000,-
600 in the cost of silver acquired by
the Treasury since the program be-
gan, it was figured in Wall Street
quarters, around s250OOO,0OO has
gone to domestic producers and for
naturalization of existing stocks in
1884.
The rest, it was said, has gone to
producers and sellers abroad.
A by-product of the program
which has interested Wall Street
deeply has been a great increase in
silver certificates in circulation
through the issuance of currency
against the metal.
The Treasury, bankers noted, pays
for the metal ultimately by issuing
currency against it,
Federal Reserve figures were cited
showing an increase in outstanding
silver certificates from $495 900 ,00O
on June 80, 1884, to $1,572 100000 al
the end of last November.
Thus, it was pointed out, one
effect of the silver program has been
to expand sharply the amount O.

Silver Mining Stocks
Show Little Chonoe

NEW YORK, Dec. 81 R.-Presi-
dent Roosevelts silver proclamation,
continuing the price for newly mined
domestic metal at 64.64 cents an
ounce, confirmed expectations of
many Wall Streeters and mining
men that quotations would be main
tanned.
Although there was unusual &C.
tivity for a week end in the security
markets today, stocks of silver-pro-
duclng companies exhibited little
anticipation of change in the do
mestic price.
Shares of such companies as
American Smelling, Anaconda Cop

The domestic premium over the
world price has been 1c>sd in Wall
Street as a definite stimulus to out

More From Straight Ores,
In mining circles it was noted
more than 40 per cent of the new
output in the United States in re-

silver ores, nearly four times as
much as before the silver program
was instituted
Ordinarily, it was explained, silver
production in large degree fluctuates
as by-product of industrial metals,
mainly copper.
A decline of about 5000 900 ounces
in domestic output in 1888 was at
tributed partly to the lowering of
the price at the close of 1887, and
also to the slump in mining of other
metals.
World output of silver in 1898,
however, was estimated to have sur
passed the 1887 figure of 275,000,0 900
ounces, the increase coming chiefly
in Mexico through tendency
toward the mining of richer ores.
