MINING
AKERS
Committee of Able Men Will
Draft Uniform Law
for Purpose.
PRESS IT IN EACH STATE
Jfeeded Not Only to Protect Gullible,
but to Prevent Injury to Legiti
mate Mining by the
Crooked Promoters.
DENVER. Aug. 17. Opeclal.) A strong
effort will bo made during the coming
"Winter by the American Mining Congress
to enact laws which will wipe out the
faking concerns doing business through
out the country. Five prominent Western,
men have been appointed a committee
tor the purpose of drawing up a law to
be presented to the Legislatures of the
"West. This committee to composed of
Governor Pardee, Senator Dubois, Senator
La Follette, Governor Folk and Congress
man E. W. Martin, of South Dakota.
It Is proposed to frame a law similar
to that now in force In California, which
will be sent to every state which has not
already a strong law on the subject, and
the Legislatures will be asked to pass It.
Secretary Calbreath, of the Mining Con
gress, has sent letters to the gentlemen
named asking them to serve on a com
mittee for the purpos eof framing euch
a law. It is believed all will serve, and a
meeting is being planned for this city
some time within the next few weeks.
The Legislatures will be asked to act
favorably and promptly on the measure
in the interest of their own citizens who
may be In danger of being taken in by
dishonest promoters. So serious has the
matter become that the American Mining
Congress finds it necessary to take this
step, not only for the protection of gulli
ble people, but in the interest of legiti
mate mining everywhere. People all over
the country have been duped so much by
fake schemes that it Is hard to get them
interested in legitimate mining enter
prises. Mr. Callbreath Is confident that the
committee will be able to frame a bill
which will be acceptable to the Legisla
tures of the various states. The stand
ing of the members of the committee Is
sufficient guarantee that any law they
may draft will be in the interest of the
investing public.
WILL DAM JACKSON LAKE
Wyoming Water to Be Stored for
Minidoka Tract.
ORBGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, "Wash
ington. Aug. 17. The Secretary of the
Interior has authorized the Reclamation
Service to construct a temporary dam at
the outlet of Jackson Lake, Wyoming.
The reservoir thus created will be used
in connection with th Minidoka irriga
tion project in Idaho. It is expected that
in 1907 from SO00 to 16,000 acres of land
under this project will be ready for irri
gation and the plans contemplate that
the normal flow of Snake River shall be
augmented by water stored in Jackson
Lake.
It is proposed to erect a temporary
dam from ten to 15 feet high, by which
sufficient water can be Impounded to ir
rigate practically all the land that can
arrange to receive it during the next six
or eight years, and this structure will
serve as a cofferdam when permanent
works are built. The estimated cost of
the dam is $30,000.

Exports From America Grow, but
Imports Are Smaller.
"WASHINGTON, Aug. 17. Trade of the
United States, with its noncontiguous ter
ritories amounted in the fiscal year just
ended to $119,304,511. A bulletin issued to
day by the Department of Commerce and
Labor says:
The shipments to the noncontiguous
territories amounted .to $51,666,666 dollars,
against $43,500,000 In the fiscal year 1903,
this growth of about 20 per cent occur
ring in the shipments to Alaska, Hawaii
and Porto Rico, but especially to Porto
Rico, while to the Philippines there was a
reduction of $750,000.
The merchandise shipped, from noncon
tiguous territories to the United States
amounted to $67,666,666, against $75,
60.000 in the preceding year, this loss
occurring almost exclusively In the ship
ments from the Hawaiian Islands and be
ing due chiefly to the decrease in the
value of sugar, which formed the bulk
of the $27,000,000 worth of merchandise
sent last year from there to the United
States and the quantity of raw sugar
sent from Hawaii to the United States
was 712.000,000 pounds against 811,000.000
the preceding year, but the value was but
$4,000,000, against $34,000,000 In the preced
ing year the average per pound in 1905
being 4.2 cents and in 1906, 3.3 cents. From
Alaska the shipments to the United
States show a slight reduction, due to a
decrease in canned salmon shipped to the
United States from 52,500,000 pounds in
1905 to 86,500,000.
From Porto Rico the shipments to the
United States were over $19,000,000 against
$15,500,000 in 1905. This increase occurs
chiefly in sugar and cigars, the value
of sugar sent here being $14,500,000. against
a little over $12,000,000 in 1905, and of ci
gars $3,000,000, against a little over $2,000,
009 In 1905.
The figures show an increase in ship
ments to all of the noncontiguous terri
tories except the Philippine Islands. The
' shipments to Alaska for the fiscal year
1906 are $15,000,000, against $11,500,000 in
1905; to Porto Rico. $19,000,000, against
$14,000,000; to Hawaii, $12,000,000, against
$11,750,000, and to the Philippines, $5,500,000,
against $6,250,000. The shipments from
the Philippines to the United States were
$12,377,927 In 1906, against $12,657,904 in 1905
The value of gold of domestic produc
tion shipped from Alaska to the United
States in 1906 was $12,500,000, against $9.
000.000 the preceding year, and of foreign
gold $7,500,000. against $10,750,000. this "for
eign" gold being the product of mines in
the adjacent British territory shipped to
the United States through Alaska.
The shipments to the noncontiguous ter
ritories were principally manufactures
and foodstuffs in a prepared or partially
prepared state. The merchandise shipped
from the tropical territories were chiefly
sugar, hemp and tobacco.

WILL -ASK- EXPERTS
Railroad Commissioners to
Find Cost of Hill Lines.
PLAN TRIP TO ST. PAUL
Members Go East After Close of
Seattle Session Estimates Will
Be Secured in Lieu of
Actual ' Figures.
SEATTLE, Wash.. Aug. 17. (Special.)
As soon as the conference with the North
ern Pacific train officials ends, Railroad
Commissioners H. A. Falrchild and John
C. Lawrence will go to St. Paul to confer
with the experts who have been at work
determining the cost of constructing the
Great Northern and Northern Pacific lines
in this state. They will spend a week In
St. Paul, going over the records.
The Minnesota and Wisconsin Railroad
Commissions are seeking the same infor
mation for- their own states, and there
is much confusion in the engineering of
fices of the two Hill systems, which the
ushington "Commission has found em
barrasses the crew at work for this state.
It has been insisted all along by the two
Hill roads that there Is no information
available that will show exactly what It
cost to build the two systems. For that
reason the Commission is trying to ascer
tain what it would cost to duplicate them.
The State Commission Insists that the
present valuation of terminals, rights of
way, labor and steel will fully balance
the extra cost in the original construc
tion. Much of the railroad in this state has
been rebuilt two or three times since first
laid, but this is not to be taken into ac
count by the Commissioners. Nor is the
original Northern Pacific switchback to
be added to that road's outlay.' The for
tune the Great Northern spent to do
away with slides on the Coast line will
not figure in the final estimates.
Tax Commission Will Profit.
All such details, the Commission esti
mates, will be offset by prevailing high
prices for construction, land and ma
terials. The facts are wanted to give the
Commission an estimate of the invest
ment which should pay a reasonable In
terest. Incidentally the figures will be
used by the State Tax Commission.
The Railroad Commission did not take
up the Walla Walla rate hearing today.
The Walla Walla delegation came in this
morning and spent the day with James
G. Woodworth, of the Northern Pacific,
but no adjustment was effected. A con
ference will be held tomorrow with the
commission.
It was stated positively tonight that fhe
policy of the railroads toward the Joint
wheat rate order, which becomes effect
ive August 24. will be determined by the
O. R. & N. If the Harriman system
wishes to resist the order the Hill lines
will join. It Is conceded the Hill roads
believe It better policy to allow the order
to go Into effect, believing it will not bi
of any advantage to wheatgrowers and
will react against the Commission.
Word has been sent General Western
Counsel B. S. Grosscup that the Com
mission is In Seattle, and he was expected
here today, but did not arrive. General
Traffic Manager James G. Woodworth will
remain here until Sunday morning, but
does not expect the Northern Pacific's
protest against the Joint-rate order to be
called up.
Action on this protest would be affect
ed somewhat by the O. R. & N.'s atti
tude. Neither the Great Northern nor
the Northern Pacific has been informed
of the O. R. & N.'s plans. The Northern
Pacific Is directly interested, and traffic
officials of that road expected an an
nouncement of policy this week.
But since the Hill lines agreed to abide
by the O. R. & N. decision traffic officials
of both systems insist they will say noth
ing further on the subject to the Com
mission until the O. R. & N. acts.
ALL MUST BE OPEN BOOK
TIME FOR SECRECY IV RAIL
ROAD BUSINESS PAST.
Commerce Commissioner Clements
Talks on Conference of Rail
road Men on Rate Law.
WASHINGTON. Aug. 17. "I am not
surprised to learn that the attorneys
of the railroads of the country are in
consultation in order to reach a com
mon conclusion as. to the Interpreta
tion of the new rate law." said Inter
state Commerce Commissioner Clements
in an Interview today regarding: the
meeting of railroad officials in Atlantic
City.
"Naturally, when the accountants, at
torneys and traffic managers come to
gether and confer as to what will Ibe a
compliance -with the new law, many
contrary views arise that will require
advice from the legal departments of
the roads. If the carriers were acting
with an eye single to complete and
bona fide compliance with the law, the
traffic managers necessarily would
have recourse to their lawyers. It
would follow, in turn, that In order to
Insure uniformity the lawyers would
want to confer among themselves.
Whether or not this be Justification for
the report that they are conferring
with a view to defeating the purpose
of the law, I am of course Inadequately
advised.
"It must be apparent to all, includ
ing those railway men who in the past
have been Inclined to regard the rail
ways as a piece of private property to
be dealt with by the owners as they
choose, that the time has come that
what they do In their business, which
Involves the rights and Interests of the
public, must be an open book, so that
they themselves may have the means
of knowing whether or not they are
protected, and I don't believe the well
advised railroad lawyers of the country
wili waste their time in attempting re
sistance to this well-settled public pur.
pose for the future."
Go to Work or Be Banished.
RIGA. Aug. 17. The Governor-General
today issued a proclamation ordering the
local strikers to return to work under
penalty of expulsion from the Baltic
Provinces, and announcing that the in
stigators of the strike on the street rail
roads would be arrested and tried.
HE FOB MASSACRE
SLAUGHTER OF JEWS HOURLY
EXPECTED AT WARSAW.
Cossacks Absolutely Rule City, and
Jewish Quarter Is Isolated.
Street Fighting Continues.
WARSAW, Aug. 18. (Special.) The sit
uation here last evening and at this hour
(1 A. M.) seems ripe for a Jewish mas
sacre of dreadful scope. Cossacks are in
control and practically rule the city. The
Jewish quarter has been isolated. It is
possible that any moment outrages may
commence. In which Jews will be the vic
tims of the popular and military frenzy
which Just now seems to have swept
over Warsaw like a fever. -.
Street fighting continued yesterday af
ternoon and evening. Frequently clashes
occurred between hoodlums and military,
with many casualties on both sides. Hos
pitals received additional patients to al
ready crowded accommodations. Late in
the day, Cossacks determined to stop all
traffic In the streets, and this was done.
At the same time, pickets were thrown
about the Jewish quarter, and since then
Ingress and egress has been denied to
all, to and from the district.
PEASANTS WHIP COSSACKS.
Unorganized Mob Wins Pitched Bat
tle In Province of Penza.
ST. PETERSBURG. Aug. 17. At th
headquarters of the gendarmerie intelli
gence was received today of another col
lision between Cossacks and peasantry in
the Province of Penza. In this affair the
mob showed such determination and fury
that the troops were forced to retreat,
carrying off several of their number se
verely wounded. Five of the peasants
were killed and several score wounded.
A detachment of 30 Cossacks has been
dispatched from the town of Penza to a
neighboring village to arrest two agita
tors. The villagers sounded the tocsin on
the church bell, whereupon a crowd of
00 peasants, armed with scythes and
other rustic weapons, gathered and ad
vanced to the rescue of the prisoners.
Undaunted by the Cossacks' whips and
sabers, the peasants charged and forced
the Cossacks to take refuge behind a
stone wall.
A volley from the carbines of the Cos
sacks failed to check the peasants, and
finally the Cossacks were obliged to flee.
The peasants are reported to have fought
more like wild animals than human be
ings. In their fury they seized a priest,
who was hurried up to help the Injured,
and beat him almost to death before the
wife of a sick peasant, whom he had
aided, recognized him and Intervened.
BANDIT LEAPS FROM TRAIN
Robber of Moscow Bank Escapes
From His Guards.
ST. PETERSBURG, Aug. 17. Belenzoff.
the leader of the band which pillaged the
Credit Mutual Bank, of Moscow, daringly
escaped while on his way to Moscow from
Switzerland, whence he had been extra
dited. He was on board a train, heavily
guarded, and when near Pskov, dove
through the glass of a window, gained the
forest and eluded pursuit.
Belenzoff left Warsaw in a special car
attached to a fast train, in charge of a
captain of gendarmes, four gendarmes
and six soldiers, two of whom were always
sitting on the same seat as Belenzoff
and carried rifles. Suddenly, as the train
slackened speed, Belenzoff rose and
hurled himself through the glass of a
window, rolled down the embankment and
disappeared in the woods. The train was
immediately stopped and the guards fol
lowed Belenzoffs bloody trail for some
distance, but finally it was lost in a
swamp.
BANISHING REDS TO SIBERIA
Attacks on Police Cause More Vig
orous Repressive Action.
ST. PETERSBURG, Aug. 17. It Is an
nounced that 210 members of the mili
tants' section of the Social Revolution
ists were arrested in St. Petersburg and
Moscow in three days, and will . be ban
ished to remote parts of Siberia.
The activity of the Terrorists and Rev
olutionists and lack of support of the
public are steadily forcing the govern
ment's hands In the direction of repres
sion. The events In Poland have given
a new impetus to the talk of a military
dictatorship, which, according to the
Comrade (formerly the Nasha Shisn), is
one of the subjects for consideration
enumerated in a call for a meeting re
ceived by the members of the military
council yesterday. The authority of the
Comrade, however, is not above question.
The prevalence of agrarian strikes and
disorders has impelled Premier Stolypln
to send another circular to the provin
cial authorities directing them to spare
no efforts to suppress them and prevent
their repetition.
Constant discoveries of laboratories
for the manufacture of explosives and
stores of bombs are chronicled, to
gether with the arrests of three more
members of the outlawed Parliament.
The commission which has been ex
amining the budget, with a view to
securing the money needed for famine
relief, has succeeded in raising a fund
of $10,000,000 half of which will be
taken from the army budget.
During yesterday throughout Poland
11 policemen and one gendarme were
killed and four policemen were
wounded.
Whipped Girl Is Dressmaker.
ST. PETERSBURG, Aug. 17. It has
