Passage of the Bill for a Monetary Commission. After The Star's report of the proceed- ings in the House closed Saturday, debate began on the bill for the appointment of the moretary commission. Mr. C. W. Stone of Pennsylvania, the au- thor of the bill, was recognized to control the time in favor of the bill, and Mr. Mc- Millia against it. Mr. Stone, in opening the debate, referred to the President's dec- larations in his inaugural, when he said that this tion should be considered when adequate revenses had been first provided. The proposition was stmple, he safd. It proposed that the President should ap- point a commisston of level-headed busi- ness men to make the broadest investiga- tion to consider all the schemes which ‘© presented, and report to him what, if legislation was needed. Mr. Cox of Se who was th leading minority -r of the committee on banking and ney of the last House, replied to Mr. He spoke briefly, predicting that sion would be val- He asserted that the republicans of the House did not want to pass this comm jon bill, but feared to raise the 1s- sue with the President.

CLIMB THE ENCHANTED MESA Telegram From One of Professor Libbey's Party Announces Success, Rich Archeological Specimens Are Believed to Be Hidden on the Here- tofore Inaccessible Summit. A special to the New York Herald from William Libbey, dated Laguna, N. M., says: The Mesa Encantade was climbed yester- day by Professor Libbey's party. The apparatus of the life-saving service was used with success. WILLIAM LIBBEY. It was announced two weeks ago that Professor Libbey of Princeton University and a party of scientific men had gone to New Mexico to attempt to scale the mesa. His dispatch is the first news that has come from the party since it set out. The Enchanted Mesa rises abruptly above the New Mexican desert to a height of 700 feet or more. It is situated about seventy- two miles west of Albuquerque, near the Indian pueblo of Acoma. So far as au- thentic history goes, neither white man nor Indian has ever scaled its summit before. The Acoma tribe, in all recent years, at least. has held the spot sacred, and man- aged to beat off all intruders who have at- tempted to venture toward the top of the clit. ‘There is a legend that the Enchanted Me- sa is the former home of the ancestcrs of the Acomas. According to the tradition that has drifted down through the ages, the flat summit of the towerlike rock was once thickly set with the pueblos of the Acomas—so thickly, in fact, that there was no room left to raise the scant crops the tribe subsisted upon. So during the sum- mer the able-bodied members of the wibe were wont to go to the bottom lands below to sow and reap, leaving the decrepit and the young to care for the houses on the airy summit. Left to the Dead Alone. Once, when the bulk of the tribe was thus occupied, the legend runs, a terrific storm brought the houses down about the ears of caretakers, and swept away the rocky stairway that gave access to the mesa’s summit. One boy, who had been sent to warn the others in the field, escaped and ied the members of his tribe back to the rock. only to find that the summit was fer- ever inaccessible. Gradually the faces that peered down from the walls above grew fewer, then faded away utterly. Sinze then the place has been aceegt to the dead ind the Aco- mas have dwelt on the neighboring mesa, where the remnant of the tribe still re- mains. : Professor Libbey started out with the t this legend probably had some basis in fact. In case he were right in this surmise, It was reasonable to suppose ae the summit held treasures of the rar archecological value. Recent development: had led Professor Libbey to believe that traces of the old Aztec civilization, would be found on the plateau, or, if not that, of a similar civilized people. Owing to the fact that the mesa is in the neart of the gold country, it was thought not improb- able that quantities of the precious metal would also be found. As the sound of running water was to be plainly heard from the base of the cliff, it was supposed there must be a lake of considerable size some- where on the summit. Hoary With Age. Some idea of the extreme antiquity of whatever life may have flourished there is gained from the fact that the founding of e pueblo now occupied by the Acomas is lost in tradition. It was hoary with age when the first white men passed through New Mexico with Coronado's expedition in A description of the pueblo of Caste- nada. one of the members of that party, establisNes that fact beyond all question. An effort was made to le the ehff twelve years ago, but the Indians succeec- ed in driving off ‘the little band of curiou whites who made the attempt. Prof Libbey’s party was prepared to success ce the Acomas, now reduced to about 6), and was looking forward to the real difti- culty of the undertaking in the scaling of the cliff itself. They had several plans for reaching the summit. On2 was to use Eddy’s kites and attempt to carry a line over the cliff by this means. In case that faifed, they in- tended to rockets, such as are employ- ed by the life-saving service, to get a line over the summit. Once a line was got over the mesa, stronger lines and eventually a le equipped with a block and tackle were to be secured that men and even herses could be hoisted to the summit of the cliff. This latter method was the one that proved successful, as the dispatches to the Herald show oo RESULTED FATALLY. Charles Martin the Victim of an Ac- cident Saturday Afternoon. Charles Martin, who lives on N street scutheast, between Half and Ist streets, met with a fatal accident Saturday after- noon while helping to unload a scow near the foot of South Capitol street. Martin, his brother and another man were unload- ing stone when the accident happened. While a heavy piece of stone was being taken from the boat, part of the machin- ery broke and a big fragment fell from the bucket. This caused the bucket to swing around with great force, and it struck Mar- tin on the head. He was knocked over- board, being thrown several feet from the boat before he dropped in the water, and although every effort was made to rescue him, life was extinct when the body was recovered. Efforts were made to resusci- tate Martin, but this was of no avail. The deceased was an excellent swimmer, but the force of the blow, it is thought, ren- dered him unconscicus, so that he had no control of himself when he struck the water. The case was Investigated, but as it was purely an accident, a certificate to this effect was given, and no inquest was held. ee AUCTION SALES OF REAL ESTATE, &c. Today.
