Ckayeana Capitalist Fropoao to Repair
and Extend Ditch.
DOUGLAS, Wyo., July 8. Governor
De Forest Richards and Dr. J. M. Wil
son, who are Interested in having the
old Fetterman canal placed in opera
tion, paid a visit to the canal. After
making a careful investigation they
say they believe $10,000 will make the
needed extension and repairs and place
the canal In working order.
Upwards of 5,000 acres of fertile
land lie under the canal, and it is pro
posed to seed the tract to aifalfa ami
feed the lambs raised In this section.

ing business can be established and
eteps will be taken at once looking to
the completion of the canal. Local
capital is back of the proposition.

TO BRAND DAIRY GOODS.
Carta Baa Will Inspect Hotter ana Elan
liar Product for Si port.
WASHINGTON, July 8. The agri
cultural appropriation act for the cur
ueui fiscal 6r authorizes the secr
tary of agriculture in his discretion to
apply the law for the inspection and
tranding of live cattle and products to
dairy products intended for exporta
tion, the purpose being to enable Amer
ican exporters of dairy products to give
foreign buyers the assurance of cer
tification by the government of the
United States of the purity, quality and
grade of dairy products.
Secretary Wilson has decided to ex
ercise the authority conferred on him
by establishing in the customs districts
of Boston, New York, Chicago and San
Francisco a system of Inspection of
dairy products and have experts in
those departments gather information
by means of which regulations may be
drafted.
A beginning will be made in a small
way, with a view of bringing about a
practical and honest system by which
all parties may be properly protected.
It la stated at the department that it li
probable that at an early date th?
owners or shippers of products for ex
port may, upon application, have th;
goods marked and certified as to pur
ity and quality, provided they are
above the minimum grade.
ELECTORAL LAW FOR CUBA.
Constitutional Coaeontloa Consider It
Itlla to Draft Idaaa.
HAVANA, July 8. The Cuban con
etitutional convention has not arrived
at an understanding regarding the elec
toral law. Several meetings were held
last week, but little interest was man
ifested in the proceedings, many o"
the delegates being absent. The con
servatives are hopeless with respect
to the rescinding of the universal suf
frage clause and are endeavoring ti
secure a plural vote for property hold
ers and for professional and business
men. In this they are strongly op
posed by the radicals.
An objection has recently been
raised against drawing up the elec
toral law until the United States gov
ernment has approved the constitu
tion, the argument being that it woul-1
be useless to draft laws based on the
constitution if Washington is going to
make changes in this instrument.
ATTENDANCE SI ILL TOO SMALL
Tjaloaa It Iarrcaeo Baffalo Exposition

BUFFALO, N. Y., July 8. The total
attendance to date at the Pan-Ameri
can exposition Is 1.719,768 The ex
position attendance began on May 20.
but at that time many features were
Incomplete and the people remained
away. The average dally attendance
for June, Including five Sundays, was
over 31,000. The excessively hot
weather during the last two weeks
has had a deterrent influence on the
attendance, notwithstanding Buffalo Is
rated as "the coolest city" by several
degrees on account of the breezes from
Lake Erie. It is believed that July
and August will easily bring the total
to above 5,000.000, and It will remain
for September and October to bring
the remainder of 10,000,000, at which
the status of guesses Is set.
BOERS ACCUSED OF ATROCITY.

LONDON, July 8. The Daily Mall

advices from Vlakfonteln, which at
tribute to the Boers inhuman atroci
ties that the censor would not allow
to be described by cable.
"A couple of Boers," says the
Dally Mall's correnpondent, "who were
armed with Martinis, walked around
among the dead and dying. Some they
turned over to see if they were dead.
If it were otherwise then one or the
other of the Boers shot them as you
would an ox. I saw four killed in this
way. One youngster pleaded for his
life. I heard him say: "O, Christ,

WASHINGTON, July 6. Charles G.
Dawes, comptroller of the currency,
has tendered his resignation to the
president, to take effect October 1 next.
In answer to an inquiry Mr. Dawes
said:
"I have resigned because of my in
tention to be a candidate before the
people of Illinois for United States
senator. It would not be possible for
me during the next year to make a
canvass for the senate and at the
bame time administer to my own sat
isfaction the important and responsi
ble office I now hold. 1 am influenced
solely in this action by what seems
to me the plain proprieties of the sit
uation." Mr. Dawes' term of office would not
have expired until January, 1903. His
letter to the president is as follows :
"WASHINGTON, July 5. William
McKinley, Executive Mansion, Wash
ington: Sir In view of the fact that
I will be a candidate for the United
States senate from Illinois, 1 hereby
Under my resignation as comptroller
of the currency, to take effect October
1, next. Respectfully,
"CHARLES G. DAWES."
Mr. Dawes entered the office of
comptroller of the currency January
1, 1898, succeeding James H. Eckels,
and was immediately confronted by the
situation In the Chestnut Street Na
tional bank of Philadelphia, which was
one of the most complicated ever con
fronting a comptroller.
He found It necessary, in the inter
est of the creditors of the bank, to
oppose the general plan of a reorgani
zation committee organized by promi
nent citizens of Philadelphia and for
a time he was severely criticised there
for. His plan was followed, however,
and it Is recognized as having saved
to the creditors of the bank a lien
upon other property which was not
contemplated by the reorganization
committee, from which they will prob
ably realize over 11,000,000.
He frequently expressed himself as
in favor of prompt action when con
vinced that the public interest re
quired action at all, and on this princi
ple he acted in the case of the Seventh
National bank of New York. Early
in his term he made a rule levying
a second assessment upon stockholder?
of insolvent banks where the first as
sessment had been less than the law
authorizes and he established the prac
tice of rebating to stockholders such
portions of the prior assessment es
was determined by further liquidation
to have been excessive under the law.
This ruling changed the long estab
lished practice of the office and was
upheld by the courts practically with
out exception.
Comptroller Dawes also organized
system of consolidation of Insolvent
banks in the last stages of liquidation
in the Interests of economy, so that
at the present time thirty-seven re
ceiverships are being administered by
two receivers with greatly reduced ei
penses. He also has uniformly bat
tened the liquidation of Insolvent
banks.
Upon entering office the fag ends
largely of the national bank failures
of the 1893 panic were still undisposed
of. During the last four year he has
collected 125,000,000 cash from these
assets, which covered every description
of property.

Assembly Paa Pra Trade Resolution
After Protraeted Debate.
SAN JUAN, P. R., July 5 la a
Joint selon laatiog thr- hours, the
Porto Rican assembly unanimously
iBi the free trade resolution. The
assembly hall was crowded with peo
ple and cheers greeted the announce
ment that Governor Allen had sigued
the resolution.
The free trade resolution begins with
a preamble in which reference is mado
to section 3 of the Foraker bill. The
resolution then proceeds:
"The Porto Rlcan assembly in extn
session, and pursuant to the instruc
tions of congress, does hereby notify
the president of the United States
that by virtue of the Hollander act3
and other acts, it has put into opera
tion a system of local taxation to meet
the necessities of insular government,
and It hereby directs that a copy of
this joint resolution be presented to
the president of the United States and
It requests that Governor Allen deliv
er the resolution In question to Presi
dent McKinley to the end that the
proclamation may be made by him
and, If It shall seem wise end proper
to the president cf the United States,
the assembly requests that his proc
lamation be issued July 25, as that day
is being established a legal Porto
holiday, to commemorate the anni
versary of the coming of the American
flag."
Governor Allen personally read a
message before the assembly, In which
he exhaustively reviewed the financial
situation of the island and showed
that Porto Rico possessed abundant
resources for Its needs without draw
ing upon customs receipts. Mr. Hol
lander's report on the island's re
sources was considered sufficiently
definite to warrant the joint resolu
tion In favor of free trade. The reso
lution was Introduced In the house by
Scnor Morales. Hr. Hollander, in a
long speech, reviewed the workings of
the new tax law and explained the
new system of taxation. He said;
"Present conditions make this joint
resolution possible and the insular as
sembly can henceforth dispense with
the revenue accruing from Porto
Rican customs."
Several other lengthy speeches were
made. The resolution passed at 12:45
and was signed by Governor Allen.
The action of the assembly Is consid
ered the most Important taken by it
since th inauguration of Governor
Allen.

MANILA. July 5. Civil government
In the Philippines has been auspi
ciously Inaugurated. Commissioner
Taft was escorted by General MacAr-
thur and General Chaffee from the pal
ace to a great temporary tribune Just
outside the Plaza Palaclo. Standing
on a projecting center of the tribune,
Mr. William H. Taft, the new civil gov
ernor of the Philippine islands, took
the oath of office administered by Chief
Justice Arellano. Governor Taft was
then Introduced by General MaeAr
thur, the guns of Fort Santiago being
fired by way of a salute.
A feature of the Inaugural address
of Governor Taft was the announce
ment that on September 1, 1901, the
commission would be Increased by the
appointment of three native members.
Dr. Wardo Detavers. Denito Legarda
and Jose Luzurlaga. Before September
departments will exist as follows: In
terior, heads having been arranged for
thus: Interior, Worcester; commerce
and police, Wright Justice and finance.
Ide; public instruction, Moses.
Of the twenty-seven provinces or
ganized Civil Governor Taft said the
insurrection still exists In five. This
will cause the continuance of the mili
tary government in these sections. Six
teen additional provinces are reporteJ
without Insurrections, but as yet they
have not been organized. Four prov
inces are not ready for civil govern
ment. The speaker predicted that with the
concentration of troops into larger
garrisons it would be necessary for tim
people to assist the police In the pres
ervation of order. Fleet launches will
be procured, he said, which will facili
tate communication among the prov
inces, as well as aid the postal and
revenue department.
In connection with educational ef
forts Civil Governor Taft said thai
adults should be educated by an ob
servation of American methods. He
said that there was a reasonable hope
that congress would provide a tariff
suitable one that would assist In the
development of the Philippines, Instead
of an application of the Untied Stales
tariff.
According to the civil governor there
Is an unexpended balance in the Insu
lar treasury of $3,700,000 and an an
nual Income of $10,000,000. He salJ
that any possible friction between civil
and military subordinates should be
discouraged. The patriotism of the
leading Filipinos was commended. In
conclusion Civil Governor Taft reiter
ated a hope expressed by the president,
that In the future the inhabitants
would be grateful for the American
Philippine victories.
The reading of President McKlnley's
message of congratulation was enthus
iastically cheered. The entire front of
the tribunal, a block long, was dec
orated with flags, and several ofllcer3,
with their families and friends, were
seated therein. General MacArthur,
Civil Governor Taft and Military Gov
ernor Chaffee occupied the center, with
the other generals on their right. Rear
Admiral Kempff and his staff were on
their left. The United States commis
sioners and Justices of the supremo
court were Immediately In the rea
with the foreign consuls. The mass of
the people stood In the park opposite.
The Filipino leaders were there, but
there were more Americans than Fili
pinos present.
The president's mersage Is as fol
lows:
Taft, Manila Upon the assumption
of your new duties as civil governor
of the Philippine islands, I have grea
pleasure In sending congratulations to
you and your associates and my thank)
for the good work already accomplish
ed. I extend to you my full confidence

SANTA EE CUTS DEEP.
Fire First Onn of Open War on Secret
Freight Rata Kedaetlon.
CHICAGO, July 6. A rate fight of
liberal proportions ig on among the
trunk lines operating between Chi
cago and Missouri river centers. For
several weeks there haa been wide
spread, though secret manipulations,
of rates on all classes of freight in
this territory, but there had been no
open rupture between any of the roads
until today.
When It became current that peace
could not be restored except by some
drastic action officers of several of the
roads began to plan open reductions
In tariffs. The Santa Fe was the first
to act and today came out with an
announcement that it would put In a
scale of rates effective July 16 between
this city and southwestern Missouri
river points that would awake the se
cret rate cutters to a realization of
the situation.
The rates promulgated by the Santa
Fe average reductions of from 30 to
40 and in some cases GO per cent be
low the printed tariffs. It is believed
that the action of the, Santa Fe will
be followed by similar announcements
and that it will bring the long-standing
secret cuts to a head and force
the lines out of the pool to become
members.
