War Department officials are to-day very na; h encouraged regarding the situation in the Philippines as conveyed by the official and press dispatches. The dispatch relative to the int. rded surrender of the. eastern portion of Mindanao indicates, It is said, the ci-j option of the southern islands to accept American sovereignty. These people have heretofore mad offers of surrender, but have coupled it with a provision that the United States should relinquish its right If Aguinaldo should bo successful in Luzon.

DER0ULEDE IS DEFIANT
REFUSES TO REPLY TO THE HIGH COURT : COMMISSION'S QUERIES. He In Therefore Comlnctcd Daclc to the Prison of La Santa A Secret Dossier' In the Case PARIS, Sept. 30. The High Court com-, mission has concluded Its ' examination ot. the documents In the conspiracy cases and the interrogation of prisoners was commenced. M. Paul Deroulede w'as first' brought into the Senate, accompanied by his counsel, Maitre Falateuf. ' M. Deroulede refused to reply to the' questions of the commission, declaring he did not recognize the jurisdiction of the High Court and reserved his explanations for the public sitting. M. Deroulede, therefore, was reconducted to the prison of La Sante. Another Secret Dossier. CHICAGO, Sept. CO. Grace Carneau, In a cablegram from Paris to the Tribune, says: Paul Deroulede and his fellow-conspirators aro themselves experiencing what Dreyfus Buffered at the hands of French Justice. The conspiracy dossier given to the lawyers for the defense for examination did not include several important documents, and up to the present time Senator Berenger refuses to furnish them on the grounds that It will be dangerous to divulge them on account of the political questions Involved. The old, wornout excuse, "state reasons," is again advanced by the government, for since it has leaked out that there is a "secret dossier" In the Deroulede case Mercier's precedent has been adopted in the High Court proceedings. The lawyers for the defense, who protested yesterday against the absence of the secret documents from the dossier, were astonished to-day by the letter of refusal received from Senator Berenger, who declines to furnish the missing . documents. Consequently there was a violent scene in tho Senate to-day between Senator Berenger and Maitre Hornbostel, one of the lawyers for the Deroulede group. Maitre Hornbostel vehemently demanded the missing documents, and Senator Berenger refused to give them up in anything but a conciliatory manner. Hot words followed. Maitre Hornbostel was compelled to retire, and Berenger now menaces him with a complaint before the lawyers' council or an order from the Appellate Court. Maitre Hornbostel says to-night: "Senator Berenger refused to give up the documents for the following reasons: First, because the prosecution does not intend using the documents, and. therefore, ho says, the defense haa no need of them. Second, Senator Berenger fears we would communicate the documents to the press, and sys they are of such a private nature that their publication might do harm. "Thus," continues Maitre Hornbostel, Senator Berenger affirms the existence of a secret dossier. In thesa documents proof exists that there is no connection between Deroulede and the Royalists. The documents are only compromising for the friends of the government. They contain the Oecar Hav-ard-Gailifet letter. My client protests against this secret dossier. Senator Berenger blames mo for communicating tho matter to the press. I believe that in a political case a political lawyer has a right to communicate to the press what ho pleases." Another row occurred in the Senate between the lawyers of the Deroulede group and the Royalist lawyers. The latter have arrived to take their turn for examining the dossier. The Deroulede lawyers made a disturbance and refused to continue the examination of the dossier with the Royalists. Minister of War Gallifet's letter, published this morning, is" much discussed. The minister declares the letter is only a refusal of an invitation from the Duke of Orleans to go to Doodnorton because he could not afford tho trip. The duke offered to pay his fare, whereupon Gallifet said he was not poor enough to have his fare presented to him. Gallifet continues mysterious and ambiguous, and is the most talked-of man in France. To-day he had an officer given a thirty days' prison sentence for defending the army at a political meeting, presided over by M. Jaures, the Socialist leader, on the ground that an officer of the army had no business to attend such a meeting. THE 3IOXEY STRINGENCY. Heavy Drain on the Stock of Gold Carried by London Banks. LONDON, Sept. 30. The prospect of stringency in the money market occupies serious attention In financial circles. There has been an immense drain of gold to South Africa since the crisis. Altogether from London and Australia about 5,000,000 have been drawn, while it Is impossible to adequately gauge the future requirements in the same direction. This, together with American competition for gold and the need of gold to move the crops in Egypt and South America, makes promise of a greater stringency than has been experienced for years past. The Statist comments on the serious prospect, especially with reference to America, and pays: "Some means may perhaps be found whereby the United States government may make exceptional disbursements from the treasury, although it is difficult to see how it will be done. With the stringency of the American market removed. one of the most Important factors pointing to high rates would disappear. Fortunately, the secretary of the American treasury is a banker of experience and ability. He has already Kiven evidence of his desire to as sist the bankers, and may. therefore, if necessity demands, find some further means cf relieving the market and reducing the pressure upon lxmaon. The Alnrknn Ooandnrf Dispute. LONDON, Sept. 30. Alaskan boundary matters are still taking up considerable at tentlon at the Foreign Office. The Canadian minister of marine and fisheries. Sir L. H Davies, is daily visiting the officials, who are busy drawng up maps liustrating Can ada's contention. He 'expects to finish his share of the matter In two weeks. He will probably return home Oct. 19. The negotiations at present, apparently, are con fined to consultations between Great Brit ain and Canada, the United States embassy taking little or no part in them until Sir L. H. Davies reaches an understanding with the imperial government. Reports of the arrival of a settlement continue to appear. but these are unreliable, as they are con tradictory. Sir Lu 11. Davies said to a reporter of the Associated Prrss: "It is impossible to give out any statement at present." " Asked if he was going over the Tower-Hay propo sitions, he said: "No. not exactly. I am here solely to represent the stand of the Canadian government." It is inferred that no definite settlement will be reached until after the convening of the high commis sion. Political Upheavals. LONDON, Sept. CO. All Europe Is in tensely Interested in the outcome of Great Britain's Transvaal trouble, hence the in ternal troubles of several countries have not received the attention they otherwise would. Frapce, after a period of intense excitement, seems quiescent: but Spain and Austria are in the throes of a political unheaval. The ecclesiastics and militarists threaten any new Cabinet which Spain mav form, and the new Austrian Cabinet will probably base its hope of existence on a colorless policy. But It is believed it will have its hands full of trouble. A curi ous rumor is current that eacn memrer or the new Ministry had to declare fidelity to the triple alliance Japanese Ascendency in China. LONDON, Sept. 30. A Peking letter pub lished here asserts that Russian ascendency there Is a thing of the past, and that the Japanese are having all their own way, the Chlrese having put themselves unreserved lv in tho hands of the Japanese for the re modeling of their army and navy. The cor a,i.ia th:it ns soon as the Japan ese battleships anil cruisers building abroad are comoleted, japan win seize uuie, anu, with Chinese help, endeavor to drive - out Ruia from Port Arthur, Manchuria and northern China. Frlncess Shocks Her llnsbnnd. LONDON. Sept. - 30. Princess Friedrlch of Hohenlohe-Ochringen, daughter of Count Von Hatzfeldt-Wildenburg. the German ambassador here, has brought upon herself the reputation of being more American than her mother, shocking her husband's relations by competing in the trench motor f. . i Anil " r mnttra races. oca is pa,B3Juu.j ww.

The Westminster Gazette says that the Marquis of Salisbury's appointment 'of Mr. Gerard Lowther as secretary of the British embassy at Washinrton "has excited much resentment in diplomatic circles,, where it is warmly denounced as a scandalous job." The paper anas, .mat tho Lowthers have always .been uncommonly well looked after whenever the Tories have been in cower." The West minster Gazette also .mentions the seniors whom Mr. Lowther jumps over. Ambassador Choate Cartooned. - LONDON, Sept. 30.-Mr. . Joseph HJ Choate, the United States ambassador, who is still in Scotland, is the subject of this week's Vanity Fair cartoon, a by rio means unkind caricature. Humorously describ ing the ambassador, the paper says he Is known as the Charles Russell oi America, is an irreproachable man of charming mainers, well married, 3'et he still, regards life as a jest, adding: "He is an ambassador. yet he is no poet." Interest in India Aronsed. LONDON, Sept. 30. The Darjeeling dis aster has done more to bring Great Britain as a nation into closer touch with India than any event of- recent years. The pro gressive policy of the viceroy of India, Lord Curzon of Kedleston, has tended much towards this end, but it needed just such tales of death, suffering and heroism as Darjeeling furnished to awaken British in terest. Turkey Forced to Back Down. CONSTANTINOPLE, Sept. 30. The customs officials having refused -to pass 20,000 sacks of American flour direct from the United States on the ground that the flour was unwholesome, the United States minister here. Oscar S. Strauss, energetically protested at the palace and obtained an trade ordering the admission of the flour. . Change in Golf Rules. LONDON, Sept. 30. The Royal and Ancient Golf Club has adopted new code rules, with the view of settling the differences In the game as' played in England and Scotland. The putting green is limited to a radius of twenty yard3. Many other Important changes made have been subjected to considerable criticism. The Spanish Ministry. MADRID, Sept. 30. A dispatch from St. Sebastian says: "The Spanish Ministry will retain office with the exception of General Polavleja, minister of war, who will be replaced by General Azcarraga, who held the war portfolio in the last Canovas Cabinet. Upton May Go to Parliament. LONDON, Sept. 30. Tho Westminster Gazette to-day reports that Sir Thomas Lipton will be asked to stand as the Liberal candidate for Ashton-under-Tyne at the next election.

There will bo sixty-nine elections, beginning Oct. 20, under the supervision of army officers. The voters and candidates are limited to taxpayers and members of the professions. The term of office is one year. The Board of Charities, with the sanction of General Davis, has submitted a proposition to the planters to provide food for the laborers, provided the planters donate to the laborers plots of ground on which to build houses. The planters and merchants recommend the plan as a solution of one of the problems before the authorities here. Cuban Labor Troubles. HAVANA, Sept. 30. The masons, at a meeting Just held, have rejected the offer of the employers of J2.S0 per day and nine hours' work. The men said they would go to work for $3 per day and eight hours work, but they agreed that any mason who wished to accept the terms of the employers could do so. A committee of Cuban fishermen and boatmen have issued a manifesto to the men employed in tho fishing industry, saying that by union they can get better prices for their fish, and also calling upon the owners of fishing boats to pay a part of the expenses for salt and other charges. The omnibus and street-car conductors and drivers threaten to strike to-morrow if their wages are not increased to $72 a month for conductors, and $50 for drivers. The worklngmen of Cienfuegos have sent a note to the leaders of the strike movement in Havana, expressing sympathy with the strikers. DEAF MUTES' HOME BURNED. Arkansas Institution Destroyed, with a Heavy Financial Loss. , LITTLE ROCK, Ark., Sept. 30. The deaf mute institute, one of the State's greatest institutions, was completely destroyed by fire at 4 o'clock this morning. The fire originated from a scuttle of ashes set on the wooden porch connecting the main building and the girls' dormitory, and spread so rapidly that the thirty-eight inmates escaped only in their night clothing and two were rescued from fourth-story windows by the firemen. Nothing was saved, and all personal effects of the officers and the teachers were lost. The loss to the State is estimated at $150,000 and to private parties $10,000. There was not a cent of insurance on the property, the Legislature having refused to make an appropriation for that purpose. The regular school year would have opened next Wednesday, and had the fire occurred then, with nearly 3uo pupils in the apartments, the holocaust that must have resulted would have been frightful. Elevator Destroyed. CAIRO. 111., Sept. 30. At 10 o'clock fire broke out in the Halliday Milling Company's new elevator, caused by a hot box. The building and contents were destroyed. The elevator contained 130.0CO bushels of wheat. Mills adjoining were saved by hard work. Loss over $200,000, partly covered by insurance. Irondale Suffers. IRONDALE, Mich., Sept. 30.

SEAMEN UNDER ARREST
SCOTSMAN'S CJIEW HELD TO BE SEARCHED FOR PLUNDER. A Corrected List of the Victims Car Co of Lugsajce and . Effects Is . Carried to St. John's. QUEBEC, Sept.. 30. Under orders from Captain Echrimshire, all members of the crew of the Scotsman brought. up to-day by the Grecian have' been held under arrest to be searched. The Allan liner Grecian, with forty-seven of the passengers and crew of the ill-fated Scotsman, arrived in port today. The people saved are in the most destitute condition, but they are more fortunate than those on the Mortfort, owing to the fact that the Grecian had plenty of provisions to feed them. The captain sent a lifeboat ashore and brought about thirty of the crew. The' next boat brought the seventeen passengers, who were then at the lighthouse. Early in the morning searching parties went out to gather in the stragglers, but they did not meet with success,, as there are perhaps forty or fifty still on the island, all scattered In parties of two or three. When the passengers and crew were brought alongside they were so weak they were unable to climb the ladder, and all had to be hoisted on deck. Many of them, as soon as they reached the Grecian's deck, fell down, overcome with exhaustion and the relief of finding a place of safety. A levised list of those drowned by the wrecking of the steamship shows that eleven lives were lost Another, a Miss Skelton, is in doubt, but nothing definite can be ascertained about her. The revised list: First-class Passengers Mrs. A. Robertson, Toronto; Miss Robertson, Toronto: Mrs. Childs, wife of the stage manager of the "Sign of the Cross" Company; Miss Street, Montreal. Second-cabin Passengers Mrs. Dickinson, Windsor, Ont.; Miss R, Weaver, London, England; Mrs. Talbot, London, England; Mrs. Scott Barnett, London, England; Mrs. Watkins, Buffalo, N. Y.; Miss Harrison; infant child of Mrs. Roberts, of Montreal. , MANY STILL ARB MISSING. Some of These Unknown Slay Reach Quebec This Morning;. MONTREAL, Sept. 30. Although the official list of thoee who perished in the wreck of the Scotsman numbers only eleven, a number of persons are still unaccounted for. When the Scotsman sailed from Liverpool she had 3D3 persons on board. Of these 2CS were passengers, 114 crew, nine cattlemen and five stowaways. So far there have been accounted for 371, leaving twenty-five unaccounted for. Of these twenty-five, nine officers and six of the crew are known to still be with the wrecked vessel, leaving ten unaccounted for. Who they are Is unknown. One of them is supposed to be Rev. Dr. John Chalmers, of Hong-Kong, China, a Congregationalist missionary, seventy-one years old, on his way to the ecene of his labors. Another is Mrs. Skelton, of London, England. They may still be on the islaiSd. for when the' Grecian left no search of the route between the scene of the wreck and the lighthouse had been made and these unfortunates were probably on their way when the Grecian sailed. The next inward-bound ship is the sister boat of the Scotsman, the Ottoman, which passed Cape Chalte twenty-three miles below Quebec this afternoon and is due at Father Point late to-night and Quebec on Sunday morning. It is probable that she will bring any passengers left behind by the Grecian. Again, the loss of life when the boats swamped may have been larger than so far reported. So far there ha been no systematic effort to place the number of dead. The Grecian arrived at Quebec this morning. The results of the search of the Scotsman's crew has not been announced, but it Is not thought that any of these were guilty of robbing or ill-treating the passengers, as they aro generally of the better class. The stokers, who were mostly blamed, were sent to England on the Monterey. The captain of the Monterey wad instructed by Captain Skrimshire to have, these men placed under arrest on their arrival on the other side, and that no mistake shall be made Instructions to the same effect were cabled to-day from Montreal. SHIPS LOOTED DY WRECKEF S. Crew and Coasts Residents Joined In the Work of Spoliation. ST. JOHN'S, N. F., Sept. 30. The schooner Northern Light arrived last night at Chahgo islands with a full cargo of luggage and valuable effects of the passengers of the Dominion line steamer Scostman, recently wrecked in the Straits of Belle Isle. She also had on board two seamen with cable messages from Captain Skrimshire to the owners of the steamer In Montreal. She reports the ship a total wreck and that ten women and one child were drowned during the landing of the passengers after the steamer went ashore. The ship was looted by the crew, who broke open passengers' baggage, stealing, money. Jewelry and other valuable articles, and also purloining the ship's plate and saloon fittings. When the coast folk reached the wreck the looting became general. The beach on which the ship Is ashore is strewn with disordered luggage and valuables of the passengers and with silks and other cargo. The ship's stores, furniture and most of the cargo probably will be saved if the weather continues fine. The captain and mate are still aboard, protecting the vessel and superintending the discharge of the cargo on the salvage vessel. Many schooners from all parts of the coast are proceeding to the wreck in order to secure cargoes. Movements of Steamers. NEW YORK. Sept. 30. Arrived: Campania, from Liverpool; Mesaba, from London.

YORK, Sept. 30.-Because of the welcome to Admiral Dewey the two yachts that will battle for international laurels during next week were visited by comparatively few sightseers to-day. The crew of the Columbia completed the task of cleaning the under body of the yacht, and spent the greater part of the day painting her top sides. This work was performed with great care. After the color was applied it was rubbed smooth with water and then with pumice stone. Afterward the men went over- the entire hull with cotton waste and removed any particles of pumice stone that adhered to the metal or paint. Riggers in the meanwhile were at work fitting a brass cap on the topmast in order to facilitate raising and lowering the spar. During the afternoon all the woodwork and interior fittings of the craft were taken ashore, and a big iron crane lifted the fittings, pieces of canvas and other paraphernalia out in a big box, which was afterward stowed in a storehouse. Owing to the strictness that prevailed relative to passes, few persons visited the yacht in her dock, but at Erie basin, where a view of the Shamrock could be obtained without the formality of yards of red tape, many visitors gazed at the Irish boat and commented on her appearance. The crew there was also finishing up the polishing process to which the yacht's under body had been subjected. It shdne like gold in the afternoon sunshine, and formed a pleasing contrast to her green top sides. The work of overhauling the yacht is about completed, the last thing being to put an extra strut on the mast in order partly to relieve the strain of the heavy sail. This strut was bolted in place during the afternoon, about fifteen feet betow the auxiliary spreaders, and a stay was then passed over it, leading from the masthead to the deck, where it sets up with a turn buckle. Captain Hogarth said that the usual Scotch Sabbath would be observed on the Shamrock and that the yacht would be floated from the dock early Monday morning, preparatory to being measured by Mr. Hyslop. Beresford Comes to the Races. NEW YORK. Sept. 30. The Cunard line steamer Campania arrived at Quarantine to
day flying the Shamrock flag of Sir Thomas Upton. Among her passengers were Admiral Lord Charles and Lady BeresTord, who are coming to Join Sir Thomas Upton as guests on the yacht Erin. They will remain on board he yacht during the race3. Other passengers were E. L. Godkln, Wm. F. Ward well. J. Sergeant Cram. Slgnor Mancinelli. Rt. Hon. Arnold Morley and Sir James Pender.
TO INVITE THE PRESIDENT. Chicago Committee Hu Left the City for the National Capital. CHICAGO, Sept. 30. The "committee appointed to Invite President McKinley to attend the Chicago fall festival during which, he will lay the corner stone of the new government building left to-day for Washington over the Pennsylvania road. The committee will be received by the President Monday morning. Acceptances to Invitations to attend the ceremony of laying " the corner stone, now that the labor trouble is regarded as settled, poured In to-day. Among those received by the federal committee were the following: Rear Admiral George Brown, retired, Indianapolis; ' Gov. Andrew E. Lee, South Dakota; Gov. I. T. Geer, Oregon; Congressman A. L. Brick, Indiana; Adolph Meyer, New Orleans, and Senator W. B. Allison, Dubuque, la. Following the settlement of the labor difficulty a meeting was held to-day at which it was agreed the labor unions of the city 'should take part in the parade. The executive committee, at its meeting to-day, discussed plans for consolidating the festival programme by reducing the celebration to six instead of ten days, as originally announced. The changes in the programme will be determined entirely by the plans of President McKinley. The managers want to have the chief executive open the festival and this may delay the inauguration of events several days. If President McKinley comes next Friday, as is expected, the festival will open that night. This will necessitate a complete revision of the programme and permit the celebration to close the following Wednesday. The six-day plan will probably be followed. 3IclKnIey to Arrive Saturday. CHICAGO, Sept. SO. President McKinley telegraphed to the federal committee this evening that he would arrive In Chicago on Saturday, Oct. 7, to participate In the fall festival and lay the cornerstone of the postoffice building. Immediately all the plans of the committee were shifted to make that day brilliant with events. Most of the other distinguished visitors will arrive then and two of the night pageants will take place that evening, tending - to make Saturday rival Chicago day. FURNITURE TO ADVANCE Manufacturers Oraanlcinsr for the Purpose of Booming; Prices. OSHKOSH, Wis., Sept. 30.

Marquis of Dufferin and Ava "Writes of the Kllllne: of Alexander II. The Marquis of Dufferin and Ava. who was British ambassador at the Russian court in St. Petersburg when the Czar Alexander II, on March 13. 1SS1. met a traeic death at the hands of the Nihilists, has written for the Youths Companion interesting reminiscences of that ruler. The British diplomat, who was held in high favor by the fearless but gentle Czar, tells In his article of the crime by which the man who had emancipated the serfs of Russia fell. He writes in part as follows: "Unlike his father, Nicholas, who was a stern and masterful ruler, the Czar Alexander II possessed a gentle and tenderhearted disposition, and to him is due the most beneficent act ever performed by a Russian sovereign, the emancipation of the serfs. Yet six attempts were made upon his life, of which the lasfproved fatal. The first took place in 1866, at St. Petersburg; the second in Paris, when his Majesty was on a visit to Napoleon III. The others oc curred during my residence at the court of Russia as her Majesty's ambassador." After describing the sinister events that g;rew out of the spread of nihilism the marquis refers to the fact that the Emperor still continued to walk about unguarded and unattended, except by a single ald-de-camp, but after the attack made on him wnlle re turning from the Winter Palace he exer cised greater care. The writer tells of visiting the Emperor just after a second attack, and continues; "The next 'attentat was of a different nature. The Emperor was on his way back from Llvadla, his summer residence, to St. Petersburg. The imperial party was always conveyed in two separate trains, the one containing the Czar and his suite, the other the baggage and some servants. As a rule the imperial train preceded that containing the baggage, but on this occasion the latter was in advance. "At 11 o'clock on Monday evening, Dec. 1, 1879, this train was passing through the suburbs of Moscow into the station, when h fearful explosion occurred immediately beneath it. The engine was blown off the line, the luggage van was capsized and a couple of passenger carriages were thrown slantwise across the rails." The Emperor escaped uninjured. In February, 1SW. the Winter Palace at St. Petersburg was blown up to destroy the Emperor; but to no avail, though many servants were killed. Further the writer says: "I now come to the concluding chapter of this long-drawn-out tragedy. "Every Sunday the Emperor held a parade of the garrison of St. Petersburg In an enormous riding school, in which 4.000 or 5,000 men were able to maneuver. The ambassadors were in the habit of attending upon these occasions, mounted and In uniform, as it gave thrm an opportunity of conversing with his Majesty and the chief military authorities. After the component parts of the garrison had marched past, the show used to terminate by displays of skill and ability on the part of some Cossack horsemen. "On Sunday, th 13th of March, 1SS1, the Emperor had held one of these usual parades, at which I happened to be present. Af he nassc-d out of the gateway he addressed ft few words to me. after which 1 turned down the street leading to my own embassy, which was situated at no. great distance. "I had scarcely reached my door or taken my foot out of the stirrup when I heard a tremendous explosion, followed in a few seconds by another, and. guuesslng that it could mean but one thing. I hurried off to the Winter Palace, where I arrived Just as the dead body of the Emperor was betpg brought in. "Immediately on leaving the riding school he had got into his brougham. He was being driven along the Catherine canal when a bomb was exploded Immediately beneath the carriage. Splinters of the bomb or of the floor of the carriage must have slightly wounded the Emperor's lower limbs, for there were traces of blood on the seat. But the Emperor himself seems to have been unconscious of the injury, for, ordering the coachman to stop, he got out and walked toward the assassin, who. after vainly endeavoring to defend himself with a revolver, had been caught and pinioned by a bystander. "At this juncture his Majesty had Treen joined by the head of the police. Colonel' Dvorketsky. who was following in a sleigh. Closflv scanning the prisoner the Tsar said to this . officer: . Toila un Joli monlseur (This is a nice gentleman.) An instant afterward another person standing In the little crowd which had now collected flung another tomb at the Emperor, killing him Instantly. Thus perished In the prime of his life, by one of the most stupid and uiele?s crimes ever recorded In history, the liberator of the serfs of Russia."

RICHER THAN THE KLONDIKE Lutold Wealth Hldlen In Ynearalund, un lludnon's liay. MINNEAPOLIS, Oct. L The Times this morning publishes a letter from a correspondent at Fort Frances, Ontario, under date of Sept. 20, which says: "Ungavaland, a region as desolate and unknown as the Klondike was four years ago, has just beta penetrated by a party of prospectors headed by a newspaper man ot this region, and consisting for the most part of men representing a wealthy lioston syndicate. From their reports and from statements made by a member of the Canadian geological survey, whom they found In that region, they have run Into a new Klondike and one richer in diversified minerals, of larger extent and easy to reach compared to the ice deserts of the Yukon. "About a year ago J. A. Osborn, editor of a newspaper of this region, became the possessor of a diary that nad been the records of an old employe of the Hudson Ray Company. He was astonished to find that It toid circumstantially of the discovery of mineral deposits on the eastern shores of Hudson bay, north from the Whale river, in what is known as Ungavaiahd, one of the last remaining unexpired tracts ot the North American continent. Mr. Osborne had no diiliculty inducing Iioston capitalists to provide the funds to equip an expedition to explore for tne mintnii lieiO. Betore returning, the party found large and valuable deposits of gold, sliver, copper, iron, anthracite and lignite, gypsum and cinnabar. On what tracts the party discovered mineral they have now tiled claims at the dominion offices in Ottawa." AGUINALDO WANTS PEACE. Deirea to Send a Representative to Manila Otis Refubes. MANILA, Oct.

Tne nrst long excursion ever taken on a railroad in tnis or any other country was also one of tne most uistlnguisned 111 point ot numbers and personnel. It lett XMew York at o'clocK on tne morning of .May 14, l&l, arrived at DuiiKirk about noon 0:1 May 15, lett tnere on tne return Journey at lv.'a tne next morning, arriving jsareiy in New York at 7 o'clock in the aittrnoon of May 17. The occasion was the opening of the New lork & Krie Railroad, tne nrst great trunk line in the United Stales and tne first to join the system of great lakes with the ocean. It was a. memorable occasion, and a full account of it may be fou:at in the newly published ".Between the Otean and the Lukes," a History of the railway written by Edward Harold Mott. The reception given Mliiard Fillmore, then President of tne United States, was- not unlike that about to be tendered Admiral Dewey. Mr. Fillmore left Washington at fj o'clock" in the morning of May lz, accompanied by Daniel Webster, secretary of state; John J. Crittenden, attorney general; W. K. Hail, postmaster general, and many other men of national importance. They arrived in Amboy at noon on May 13 and found there tne steamer .Erie ready to convey them to the city. ' On the way speeches were made by the oiilciais of New lork and of the railway and a banquet of great magnificence served, Mr. Loaer, president of the company, being in the chair. New ork harbor was a biaze of bunting when the steamer came within view, ana not less than 50,000 people were congregated at the Battery to see tne dlstingulsned visitors. The forts saluted on the way and of the state militia met the party at the dock and escorted tnem to the oid Irving House, at the corner of Broadway and Twelfth street, where rooms had been provided by the Lrie Company. The next morning the excursion started, as has been said, amid great popular enthusiasm. And it was a Journey memorable for many things. There were two trains an hour apart a train in two sections we should say now and the best of everything the road afforded, both in rolling stock and men, was used. From the beginning the irip was in the nature of a triumphal procession. A caterer was in attendance and he made it pleasant for everybodyi the refreshments, llauid and solid, being something to be talked of by all fortunate enough to partake of them. In the absence of what are known now as observation cars a flat car was made part of the train, and it is recorded that Daniel Webster took advantage of this, sitting in a rocking chair viewing the country" and utilizing it as a rostrum for the delivery of speeches at the stations along the line. Crowds of people came down to see the party go by, and if all the offers of hospitality could have been availed of the excursion would not be ovef yet. The absence of sleeping cars In those days led to the stoppage of the entire party owr night at Elmlra both going and coming, the trains getting in about dark and staying until 10 o'clock the next morning. Everybody in town turned out to escort the company to the hotels, and everything was run wide open. On the way down the trains got bshind and the engineer "hit er up." He frightened a good mony of his eminent pasengers, but he made a reputation that lasted him a lifetime by covering the distance between Port Jarvis and Narrowsburg, a round thirty-four miles, in exactly thirty-five minutes. Some of the gentlemen aboard wanted the train stopped so they could get off which was not the rule then any more than it is now. The trip was not devoid of political incident. At Corning, where the population was solidly Democratic, no one came do A n to see the Whin? officials fro by. At another place the opponents of Mr. Webster appeared with banners labeled "Slave Driver" and "Traitor." Just before Dunkirk was reached the two trains were made into one, and on their arrival the town broke loose. Among the others present and firing salutes yas the revenue cutter Michigan, one of the few survivors of the excursion. There was a big barbecue, a yoke of oxen and twelve sheep being roasted, among other things. There were also a big procession, fireworks, clam chowder and a high old time. And the journey back to New York was almost equally enthusiastic. MEAMXO OF "MAMMA." When the Mother Accepts the Sacred Name ivlth Pleasure. Charlotte D. Eastman. "One thing is certain," an affianced maid announced with decision on the eve of her wedding, "my husband shall never call me 'Mamma He may call me Clara, or Mrs. Richards, or evx?n 'Say, but I shall never be called 'Mamma. It id a horrid, impersonal name." " Wo mammas who heard her only smiled, and answered nothing at all, for each of us remembered that she was young and that there were many, many things that she did not know. She did not know that when the sweetheart had changed to the wife, and the wife to the mother, there comes a wondrous first time. That first time that shs feels the downy head nestling under her chin; that tlrst time that she feels the restless pat, pat of little feet as she vaimy tries to prison them in ner hand;that tim time she feels the dainty touch of velvet lingers. she does not know that then h?r life bursts into a new and wonderful fullness.

She hears the name again, perhaps, when ?orrow wrings the hoait of ner grown-up baby and the arms are thrown around her neck ajrain with the rld assurance that there comfort will surely be found. After all this, can the narhe ever be the horrid, impersonal thing that it appeared; to the bride? We do not blame her. She did not know. She proved so clearly that she was among the unanolnted. She knew no other love of man for woman but his lovo for his sweetheart. She did not know that it was but the beginning of a larger love, that grows stronger and purer each year, and that the pet names of the sweetheart are swallowed up in that more precious name cf "Mamma." Time will surely trach her this, for If the baby comes, with Its baptism of love sh. will know It; and If It never comes she will know It, too, as the priceless gift that she has not. nad Little Girl's Freak.

One of these little girls lives in Hyde Park, and she has been a soro trial to her mother. She ha3 been defying the force of gravity ever since she was large enough to climb to the brick of a chair. As her parents belong to the church and have some respect for the good opinion of the neighborhood, they have confined their efforts to keeping Mabel from behaving badly Sundays.

And she was up there walking those ror-ea that she couldn't see. "Mabel!" cried the good woman, "whatever do vov mean? Will you never learn to behave In a ladylike manner? What are you doing now?"
