That Ail Persona tntereat- ed in Sending Goods to Islands Will Offer'Suerseatlons. WASHINGTON. Nov. ".The people -of Portland interested in sending supplies to the Philippines and in trading "With that part of the United States' posses sions, should formulate some representa tions to lay before the Secretary of War aa to the tariff on exports from, the United States to those Islands. The re vised tariff for the Philippines has been cent to the Secretary of "War for further revision. It is expected that all persons interested in sending goods to $be Philip pine Islands -will make suggestions con cerning the revision that is to be made here. Possibly shippers -will not got all they want, but they can make such rep resentations to the Secretary of War as will secure reduction of a beneficial char acter. Under the treaty of Paris Spain is en titled for the next 10 years to secure the same rates on imports to the Philippines as the United States. As nearly every nation -which has a treaty ' with the United States has the "favored-nation clause," -which allows it to have its im ports treated with the same degree of faor as other countries, this favdred nallon clause will no doubt operate to admit all goods into the Philippines at the same rates as allowed Spain, unless it should be arbitrarily decided that the tariff to be promulgated la a part of mili tary necessity, and Is not governed bv the treaty with Spain, or treaties with other nations. Tills would be a rather far-fetched view, and the probabilities are that -when the tariff is revised It will have to be reduced for the Philippines, as well, to secure the introduction of prod ucts from the United States which are less likely to be In competition with the products of foreign nations. It Is under stood that the tariff thus far prepared has been drawn Mipon these lines, but the authorities hero believe that Ameri can shlpers should have an opportunity to express their views before the tariff Is put in operation.

The new structure will be built of stone or brick, and will be furnished with modern appliances. THREE HIKERS KILLED. Accident Due to Cnvc-M at the Car bonndo Mine. TAPOMA. Wash , Nov. 7.

IN THE BLUE RIVER DISTRICT. Active Work in Mines Since Raina Bearun Several Rich Prospects. BLUB RJVEJR, NVxv. 7.-Oohsi4enble development has been -done the past Sum mer on the Callpoola side of the Blue ' Mountains, and many claims are showing up good prospects In gold. Nothing but ( tne iacK or wagon roada prevents one or more mills being put In right off. Blas ter's little two-stanip m.ll his begun oper ations since the rains set in and is stead ily at work crushing ore from tho Sunset mine. Dr. Candlanl's Bran mill started up crushing some 10 days ago, but owing to the tires of the steel wheels being too light, had to suspend operations. Shumate & Post, recently made a rich strike near Quartz Creek, between tho Lucky Boy sawmill and Blazler's mliL which shows lots of gold In their tunnel. iney are going into a hill which shows quite a large body of ore, some seven j ie&L wiae. The Lucky Boy made a very good clean up the first of this month, and have Just finished a large bunkhouse, eating-house and blacksmith shop, and have a largo barn nearly completed. Since the conv pany's sawmill was put Into operation over 160,000 feet of mining timbers have been sawed. The mine 13 now well tim bered. The 10 -stamp mill Is running steadily day and night to its full ca pacity. Much water Is now in the middle tunnel, almost enough, to supply the mill. A new tunnel will soon be commenced to take Ore out nearly 1C0 feet below the up per level. This will give a large body of ore on the same level as the upper story of the mill, and this tunnel, can be extended into tKe mountain a distance of 2700 feet, getting a perpedlcular depth of about 1S00 feet. When the ledge is known to be from 12 to 25 feet wide of pay ore, some Idea can be formed of the wealth of this mine. Mining Stock Transactions.
