IN EEGARD TO THE CANAL TOLLS.
China Sends the State department Her Ob
jections to Blair.
OTHEB IMPORTANT AFPAIES OF STATE
"WASHnrGTON, July L The President
to-day sent the .lollowinR message to the
Senate:
For the information of the Senate, and in
further response to the resolution of the
Senate of February St. last, I transmit here
"with a communication of the 24th Instant
from Mr. Herbert, the acting representative
of the British Government at this capital,
addressed to ilr. iriiarton, Acting Secretary
of State, upon the subject of the Canadian
canal tolls, also a memorandum prepared
and ubmitto J to me by Mr. Adee, Second
Assistant Secretary of state, reviewing the
communication of ilr. Herbert, and a letter
of the 23th instant from Mr. John W. Fos
ter, who. as I have previously stated, with
Sir. Blaine, represented this Government in
the conferences with the Canadian Com
miqionei. The position taken by this Government,
as expressed in my previous communication
to the Senate, that fie canal tolls and regu
lations of hich complaint has been made
are in violation ot our treaty with Gieat
Britain, is not shaken, but rather confirmed.
There can be no doubt that a serious dis
crimination against our citizens and our
commerce exfets. and quite as little doubt
mat tins discrimination is not xne incident
but the purpose of the Canadian regulations.
It hi'. not seemed to me tiiat this was a case
in i hich wo could yield to the suggestion
for further concessions on the part of the
United States 1th a view to securing treaty
rijhts for which a consideration has already
ber.n si en. Benjamin Hauiusox.
Eshci-rm: Maxsiox. July 1.
The Dominion Viants to lie Friendly.
Mr. Herbert, in liis letter, expresses the
deire oi the Dominion to maintain friendly
relations with this Government, and says
thjt the Government is willing to meet our
wers so far as is consistent with, the
Dominion's jiosition and with the interests
of its people, and with a view to the further
ance ot a good understanding between the
two countries, the following arrangement is
submitted:
That, as rejrds the navigation of the
"'elland and fet.I.awrence Cauals, the im
position of tolls and the granting of rebates
Vhereon, the same treatment will bo ac
corded to citizens of the United States as is
given to the subjects or Her Maje-ty with
out tesard to poits of trans-shipment or ex
poit, and that the United States will con
tinue to deal in like maimer with the sub
jects of Her ISii aunic Malesty in the use of
the existing Sauit Ste. Marie Canal.
That the provisions of article 30 of the
treaty of Washington granting carrying
powers to vessels belonging to the subjects
of her Britannic Majesty, as described in
that article, be restored.
Mr. Adee, the Second Assistant Secre
tary of State, in a long memorandum pre
pared for the Secretary of State, reviews in
detail the statements and opinions of the
Canadian Government. The rebates of
canal tolls, Mr. Adee says, are merely an
instrument to fin or the "export trade from
Canadian ports. Concluding, Mr. Adee
says,:
Not a Too Definite Iteply.
Regarded as a wholo, the Canadian reply
fails to meet the just complaints of the
Jnlted States. It narrows the issue to the
reatment of American and Canadian vessels
in respect of tolls in the Wetland and St.
Lawrence Canals and to the denial or rebate
o cargoes of grain-stuffs actually tnins-
d in an American port for export
iutreal, or a port east of that citv.
orOs the ndroitly devised system by
h tl & trade of citizens of the United
tea i'made to contribute a much larger
icimtj.se ol tolls in the Wclland Canal
i in tii' traffic of Canadians, nnd it is
Bltngethkr silent touching the discrimina
tion, intisjduced into this season's order in
council, ithholding the export rebate from
cargoes coming Irom any port on the United
States shore of Lake Ontario.
Secretary Foster's letter relates to the
conference held in Washington and its un
satisfactory termination.

CHINA'S 0EJCTI0NS TO BLA.IE.
Reasons Given to the State Department
for the Ex-Serators Rijection.
"Washington, July L United States
Minister Deuby, at Pekin, has transmitted
to the State Department the official response

tary Wharton's letter of October G, convey
ing the President's protest against the suffi
ciency of the objections presented bv the
Chinese Government to ex-Senator Blair's
appointment as Minister to China.
It is impossible to obtain in "Washington
a copy of the communication from the
Chinese Government, hut it is Eaid to con
tain a strong argument in support of its
course in reiusiiig to accept Mr. Blair as
Minister to China because of his action,

The International Monetary Conferee.
"Washington; July L It is understood
that the proposed international monetary
conference was one of the subjects consid
ered at to-day's Cabinet meeting, and that
the President has practically decided to
fcelect three llcpublicans and two Demo
crats as the conterees on the part of the
United States. Senators Allison and Jones,
oi Xevada, and H. W. Cannon will be se
lected to represent the Republican party
and Senator Carlisle and F. AV. Walker, of
Massachusetts, the Democratic party, with
the possibility that Senator Daniel of Judge
Lamport Tree may be chosen in place of Mr.
Carlisle. Senators Jones and Daniel are
recognized champions of the tree coinage of

TSPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THX DISPATCIU
Jacksonville, Fla., July 1. There is
renewed agitation in transportation circles
here, owing to the reports that H. M. Flag
ler is going to push his east coast railway
lines still further down the coast and far
below the Indian river country. .From
Titusville, the ceuter of his operations at
present, comes the following outlines of his
plans in a statement which it is claimed can
be authenticated:
Every intelligent person in this port of
the State is jnst now watching the action of
the "Florida Wizard," H. M. Flagler. His
work on Indian river is taking form, and
the stupendous scale on which it seems to
be projected is almost paralyzing to the
looker on. Briefly outlined, it is this: The
work of extending the St. Augustine Rail
road to New Smyrna is rapidlyprogressing.
Mr. Flagler's orders' to his 450 workmen are
that trains must be running between these
two points by August 1. In actual fact, the
road will be all completed by the first of
next week.
The Real Project of Mr. Flagler.
There is nothing startling in this. Neither
is there anything prodigious in the idea ad
vanced by many little superwise individuals
in this vicinity, whose projectors see only a
future shortening of the distance to Tampa
bv a road from New Smyrna tapping the
Plant syctem at some southwestern point.
Mr. Flagler has no intention of tapping or
feeding the Plant system. His real project
is to follow the eastern coast to deep water.
While men are working at New Smyrna
other agents are busy to-day making con
tracts for ties, timber and other materials
and large gangs of workmen. Small armies,
they seem like, were at Titusville, working
from that point both ways. Farther down
the coast,surveys and other work is pushing
forward, looking to the building ot an im
mense iron pier which shall carry trains
safely to the outer waters of TSiscoyne Bay,
where they can meet vessels of the largest
tonnage and of the greatest dralt
A Great Gain for Uncle Sam.
"What does this mean? It means the most
direct route between the Atlantic seaboard
cities and the West Indies and South Amer
ica It puts New York, Philadelphia, Bal
timore and Boston 180 miles nearer Havana
than they now are via Tampa. It means
the bringing of the South American trade to
the very doorsteps of the Eatern markets.
It means the capturing from the Plant sys
tem of the fast mail and its attendant trade
and travel. It means more. It means that
the deep-water port of Florida is to be at
Miami and Biscoyne Bay.
D. G. Amblerj a prominent banker of
this citv, savs with reference to this pro
ject: "Biscoyne Bay would make a superb
naval station lor the United States, and the
Government would probably establish one
there should this railway and steamship
scheme materialize. It's a beautiful spot
plenty of deep water and finely protected
oy nature. No loreign navy could get
through tho Straits of Florida with a
United States naval station at Biscoyne
Bay."
It is said here to-day that the Clydes and
another steamship firm are in this deal with
Mr. Flagler, and that the combination is
the most powerful one ever made among
transportation men.
Mammoth Railroad and Bridge Company.
In addition to this project, a company of
which Hon. Campa Delano, of Florida, is
the principal incorporator, has here organ
ized to build a railroad from Miami (on
Biscoyne Bav) to Key West, the -survey
having already been made by way of the
Keys and the 'shallow water between them.
The company is called "The Florida, Key
West Railway and Bridge Companv." The
entire distance from Key Largo ('near Mi
ami) to Key West Is 112 miles, but only
2S) miles of It is water.
A powerful syndicate is now being organ
ized in Philadelphia and New York to push
the scheme through in order to head oil Mr.
Flagler in his Biscoyne Bay project, for
with a railroad to Key West this company
could reduce the running time from New
York to the former city down to about 40
hours, and the distance from Key West to
Havana Is less bv over 100 miles than that
from Miami to Havana. This is going to be
a battle between financial giants, and there
is inn ahead in Florida transportation matters.

A Steady Four of Dividends From the En
terprise Bllnrs. '
Denver, Jnly 1, Newman Hill, the
home of the Enterprise group of silver
mines, is a good place to watch.. It is mak
ing straight for fame. No one needs to
boom it. The telling force of facts will do
that, for the new group, almost unknown
until a yearago, has turned out one of the
best dividend payers in Colorado. The
future is quite as well assured, since the
property looks better than ever. Less than
one year's work with a gross yield of 1,
009,000 has opened up new ore bodies and
has given such further bonds for rich re
turns that the best judges of mininsr prop
erty do not hesitate to place Newman Hill
in the front rank of mining camps.
Measured by years Newman Hill is not
old. Few people beyond its shadows had
heard of it five years ago. It leaped into
prominence last year, when a dispatch from
Denver roported the payment of 51,000,000
over the counter of a bank in that city to
complete the purchase ot the Enterprise
group. This purchase, at the largest "cash
price ever paid for a Colorado mine, natur
ally excited the mining world. The little
town of Rico, in Dolores county, lying at
me ioot or .Newman Jim, wneeiea at once
intotho line of travel.
Mining men were predisposed from the
beginning toward the Enterprise group.
Its purchase by George Crawford com
manded respect for it Mr. Crawford bad
behind him a record of unbroken success.
He enjoyed among those inteiested in
mines a reputation for good sense and good
management Always knowing precisely
what be was about when he took hold of it
mine, it was as certain "as anvthintr could be
when he bought the Enterprise pronerties
flint, thoi" nnntatnoI mw.t wAaltl. "Ut nna
questioned tor a moment that the foresight
ana good judgment which had characterized
his business career had been employed with
their usual care in this case. The only
question now is whether lie knew what a
good property he had secured.
The history of the Enterprise group may
be told in the pleasing rhetoric ot figures. It
was turned over to a company in the latter
part of August of last year, 'Since Novem
ber 1, when the first information of returns
was given to the public, it has paid in divi
dends ?430,000 on its capital off 2,500,000. A
modest notice of its dividends which ap
pears monthly in the newspapers tells in
part the story of the property's manage
ment It can give only a meager idea, how
ever, of what has been done or of what is in
prospect.
A summary of the returns of three lots of
ore shipped from the property from June 1
to 18 shows the way shipments aie
now running. One lot ot "five cars ruus 3.03
ounces of gold and 267.7 ounces of silver to
the ton, making the value of five cars $12,
400. A second lot ot five cars runs 3.28
ounces of gold and 256.47 ounces of silver,
value of the five cars $12,000. A third lot
runs 3.03 ounces of cold and 234.4 ounces of
silver, value of 12,000 lor the five cars.
There are seven cars On the way to the
smelter which are worth $18,000, being high
grade ore; 27 cars of low grade ore having
value of $7,300. This makes a total value ot
shipments from June 1 to June 18, $62,200.
Keceipts for May (81 cars) amounted to
$83,850 40, and receipts to May 1 were $677,
174 01, making a net total to June 1 of
$761,024 41 since the mine was operated by
the company. The. average net value per
ton of ore has been $125, or $1,250 per car,
and the total gross value of ore produced,
from which expenses of freight", hauling and
treatment were taken in making the net, was
$1,009,000.
While these fignres leave no donbt that
the property has proved to be all that
was expected of it, they hardly do justice to
the facts. In the development of the various
mines vast ore bodies have been exposed in
all directions. A new vein in the Jumbo
mine, one of the group, may be cited as a
sample of these drifts. It assays from two
to five ounces of gold and from 200 to 400
ounces of silver per ton. In general the
assays of the drifts show that the ore now in
sight will average quite as well as that al
ready shipped.
Mr, Crawford lost no time in getting down
to business with the property from the day
the company put it in, his charge. Know
ing that the ore was there, he set about pro
viding the best means of setting it out In
the 25 claims comprising the property de
velopment has opened up about five miles
of workings. A tunnel has been run 2.000
feet into the hill from a low level. This
tunnel taps all the workings, acts as a drain
from the mines and is equipped with cars,
furnishing exit for the ore and ingress for
the men and supplies. The month
of the tunnel is the basis of opera
tions for the mines, an ore
house having been built there and quarters
for the men. This does away with hauling
machinery at the shafts up the hill and
with wagon service, and it serves economy
so well otherwise that it will reduce operat
ing expenses at least 25 per cent The
Denver and Bio Grande Southern Hail road
has been completed to Blco since the mines
were opened. Work has now begun on a
spur to the mouth of the group tunnel, so
that ore will be loaded on the cars directly
from the mines.
The company is sinking a shaft to a lower
contact which is known to exist and which
adds millions to the value of the Enterprise
property. All the experience of mining
shows that in contact formation the second
strata proves larger and better than the
first This new contact alone, apart irom
the vast bodies of rich ore already exposed,
must insure for the Enterprise mines a bril
liant future, for its supply of the precious
metals is practically inexhaustible.
Bald on Tramps nt Deny.
The Pennsylvania Railroad police made a
raid on a lot of tramps at Deny late on
Thursday night Twenty-three were cap
tured and taken to Greensburg. Yesterday
morning they were fined $5, or 20 days to
jail. The majority were compelled to serve
the time. The officers complain that tramps
are more numerous this summer than they
have been for years. No explanation can
be given for the increase. If it is on the
score ot a scarcity of work, the officers state
that these men could get jobs in Delaware
and New Jersey picking berries.
