OTHER LANDS THAN OURS, ' From time to time of late there have been ftems of news in the English papers describing conflicts between the British de- tachments holding the posis along the new frontier taken up by the British gover ment In ‘he Aden hinterland and the Yemen Arabs, 1In oneé of the latest encounters re- ported the British suffered not a little in the way of cascalties and a village was d: stroyed. The disturbance created by this extension of Britieh territory over the south- western corner of Arabia seem$ to be spreading. It has apparently reached the country to the south of Mecca, where thers bas been some sanguinary fighting between the rebelling tribes of the Asir region and the Turks, in which the latter were badly beaten. From Central Arabla and the' country toward the Persian gulf there are 8i%0 reports of renewed unrest which may probably lead to Intervention. It is not Ukely that anything will be done until after lord Curzon's tour to the Persian gulf, which he will make about the end of the year in his official capacity of governor general of India. During the tour he will visit all the points of interest, including Kowelt, which has been spoken of as the terminus of the German Bagdad rallway. With the Kowelt chiefs Great Britain has political relations. It will not be surpris- ing 1f Lord Curzon's projected journey 1s made the occasiop of & deliberate and em- phatic assertion of British soverelgnty over ® large part of that region. .. A correspondent of one of the London newspapers, writing from Odessa, says that the latest information from Teheran rep- resents the state of affairs in the Persian capital as becoming daily more precarious. Palace Intrigues are so rampant that no minister or prominent courtier caf depend from day to day upon the shah's good will and favor, and the fall of a minister or court favorite in Persia usually means his efficial and soclal degradation,. the loss of his private property and banishment to Keérbela or some other remote and undesir- able spot. For the time being the new sad- rasaam (grand vizier), Ain-ed Doulek, 1is all-powerful. He is a cousin of the shah and was formérly governor of Maszenderan, a post from which he was suddenly de- graded and exiled to Kerbela, He is re- puted to be a fanatically orthodox Shilte and this is a cause of no little anxiety to the Babi a sect which has latterly been very cruelly presecuted in various parts of the shah's dominions. He is regarded as by no means 5o enlightened a statesman as his predecessor, the Atabeg-Azam, but, un- 1ike the latter, who Is now an exHe in west- ern Burope, he is sald to regard Russia with dislike and suspicion. All this infor- mation, it should be remembered, Is sifted through Russian sources. o e The conference of representatives of the different German states which Is sitting in Berlin to consider the financial condi- tion of the empire, has some Kknotty prob- lems to solve. One object, if not the main object of it, is to devise measures to pre- vent any further Increase in the contribu- tions of the individual states to the im- perfal treasury. In the financial program sketched by Prince Bismarck in 157 it was calculated that the revenue which the im- perfal treasury would derive from customs and excise duties would enable it to bal- ance the amount of the “matricular” con- tributions and create a surplus fund to be divided annually between the contributory states. In recent years there has not only been no. surplus, but the separate states have had to pay in considerably more than they recelved back. In the current financlal year—April 1, 1903, to March 31, 1904—not only has a supplementary loan been needed to balance the estimates, but It has also been found necessary to assess the separate states for sums which amount in all to 24,000,000 marks ($6,000,000), over and beyond the contributions for which they aré Indemnified. The finances of Prussia fortunately are in such & prosper- ous conditiori that the share of this bur- den which falls upon the greatest German state has not been serlously felt. But the modest budgets of some of, the smaller memhers of the Imperial federation are less able to bear the strain of extra de- mands which cannot be calculated in - vance. It is declared that the present sym- tem must soon result in the ruin of several of them. e A Russian decree has just been f{ssued dealing with the cases of forelgners ex- pelled from Russian territory. The most important of the new regulations provides that “‘forelgners condemned to penal servi- tude or exile are not llable to expulsion, but foreigners condemned to other forms of deprivation of freedom are liable to ex- pulsion upon the expiration of their sen- tence.” Foreigners liable to expulsion are to be presented with an intimation to that effect specifying & term of grace to be ac- corded to them. If any forelgner does not leave the country voluntarily after re- celving this Intimation, he is to be sent to the border under escort, as will be any forelgner who, after having been expelled, shall return to Russia. Further provisions deal with the cases of forelgnors compelled e e T —— T4 A THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: SATURDAY, governments to recelve them, and the ad- ditional cases of forelgners who twice re- turn to Russia after expulsion. The latter class have boen treated hitherto as vaga- | bonds. For both classes a special system of settlement has now been instituted, by which they will be permitted to live in cer- tain districts to be defined at intervals of three years. They must register them- selves in the peasant or artisan class, will not be allowed to leave the district to | which they have been allotted, or to en- gage In trade or industry without the con- | sent of the governor. In five years from the time of their settlement they may be- come naturalized. . ‘ A correspondent of the London Times has been traveling among the repatriated Boers in the Transvaal, and trying to dis- cover the true state of their feelings to- wards Great Britain, He says that he be- leves that most of them are friendly and grateful for what has been done for them, | but that they feel considerable anxiety about' the future. The great majority of them are in the government's debt; and it is the doubt s to how far their share of the free gift of £3,000,000 will get them out of debt which weighs upon their minds. The correspondent thinks that the hardest task is still in front, namely, the collection of debts, the just mssessment of claims, and, above all, the fulfiliment of promises made. It Is the manner In which this work is carried out, he says, whic) will determine the attitude to be adopted by the greater proportion of the Boer population. There must be the most scrupulous fairness and the utmost tact, he declares, and no prom- ise must remain unfulfilled. The Boers do not accept the new orcer of things without considerable misgiving, and the hurt ‘to thelr natfonal pride cannot be quickly healed; but he belleves that for the most part they have confidence in thelr new gov- ernment, and will be content so long as they are fairly treated. But, he adds, there are a considerable number of temporary ir- reconcilables who may be expected to muke trouble as soon as government benefactions have been exhausted. Moreover, there are a body of permanent irreconcilables, who still dream of a South African republic and are already busily sowing the seeds of dis- content among the more peaceable inhab- itants. v e LINES TO A SMILE.

FRITZ HEINZE AS A STRENUOUS FIGHTER Ola-Timers mand Wenlthy Syndicates Sorely Harrassed by a Bold Fighter—Mill More to Fritz August Heinze, one of the Impellin causes of the shutdown or mines in Butte and vicinity, is a natlve of Brooklyn, N. Y., 8 years of age, a graduate of Columbia, an expert in mineralogy and a practical miner. Thirteen years ago he worked in the Mon- tant copper mines at $5 a day. He has bested the Standard Oil company in a legal battle, won a verdict for $10,000,000 against the Amalgamated Copper company, and was the cause of throwing 25,00 men out of work. When Heinze went to Butte thirteen years ago the city was a mining camp where there were some of the richest veins of copper In the country. He took his §6 a day Job and went down in the mines every morning at 7 and stayed until 6 in the evening. When 'he came out he dropped the toggery of the mine, cleaned up and put on evening clothes. He was the only man in the camp who appeared at dinner In a claw-hammer coat, and was soon locally celebrated for this sort of thing. On Bun- days he wore a frock coat and a top hat and was soon pointed out as the ‘best dresser’ of the camp. He had a smattering of englneering knowledge and he worked faithfully in the mines for twé years. In that time he learned much about copper. the smelting business and his shrewd mind saw the opportunities that gave him his start toward fortune. With his knowledge and his plans he returned to New York, where he had two brothers, Otto and Ar- thur. Heinze had some money of his own besides his salary when he was-in Montana. Soon after he roturned his grand- mother dled, leaving $50,000 aplece to each of the three brothers. This was the money Heinze needed. He went to Germany and studied for two years in the best schools of imineralogy. He rounded there the knowledge he 'had gained in the west and when he came back to New York he was prepared to carry out the plans he had made in Butte. He asked his brothers to go to Montana with him. Arthur, who is a lawyer, de- clded to go. Otto, who was In busine:s at that time, refused. The two, brothers established themselves in Butte. The need for the lawyer brother was soon apparent, for Heinze was in litigation up to his neck within a year. He leased the Estrella claim from James A. Murray and built a small || smelter with his capital. The contract with Murray provided that Heinze should pay a 2 per cent royalty on all ore running over 12 per cent copper to the ton. Mur- ray claimed that much of the ore from the Estrella ran more than 12 per cent, but that Helnze evaded -the payment of royal- tles by mixing enough low-grade ore and rock with the ore produced from the mine to keep the percentage of copper below 12. They went to the courts. Helnze then proved that the courts were his battle grounds. He fought Murray for months and he won, With the money he was making from the Estrella ;filnn took over several other profitable leases. His ventures prospered. Tt was not long until he had bought a con- trolling interest in the Rarus mine, a large producer he had under lease. He paid $225,- 000 for this interest. The Rarus is in the heart of the copper district. Heinze wds recognized by this time as one of the shrewdest :aining men in Butte and he proved the correctness of the claim by get- Hing the Glengarry claim and developing it in connection with the Rarus mine. He had a big smelter and was making ~money rapidly. The young man had large {deas. He knew the copper business thoroughly and he had the cnergy to utilize his knowledge to its fullest extent. He went along with somo Htigation until 189, He was known as a man who would fight for his claims and would not compromise unless be had by far the best of it. In 1895 he turned to”British Coluimbia. He went to Trall City and buflt a smelter. Then he bullt a narrow-gauge rallroad to Rossland, eighteen miles inland. The heaviest produces in the reglon was the Leroy mine, which was owned in Spokane, and of which the manager was George Tur- ner, afterward senator from' Washington, and more recently a member for the United States of tho Alaska treaty boundary com- mission, which has just arbitrated the bourdary quarrel in London. Turner made $1,000,000 out of the Leroy property. When Helnze returned to Butte! tn the latter part of 1897, he was dragged into the sensational Htigation that is now in process of adjudication. There are few people who understand the intricacles of mining law, and the sults and counter-suits brought by Heinze and agaiust Helnze, were bewilder- ing tn their complications. The Butte & Boston mine sued Helnze for $150,000 for ore alleged to have been taken from the Michael Davitt mine through the deeper workings of the Rarus, a Heinge mine, Then the Boston & Montana company sued for $500,000 on a similar claim, for ore taken by the Rarus workings from the Pennsylvania mine. Helnze jumped in at this point and sued for $2.000000 for ore taken from the Rarus claim by the work- ings of the Mountain View mine. The com- panies which sued Heinze were the Marcus Daly Interests, and the fight between Cop- per King Daly and the Helnzes began right there. Action was piled on action, on every sort of 4 pretext, until there were more thay sixty cases in the various courts of the county, state and country. These suits were but the beginning. Hélnze had not been idle when he discovered the Daly people were after him. He had Instructed his brother, Arthur, the lawyer, to investi. gate the mining titles on the Butte moun- tain. Arthur had investigated with good results—for Helnze. It was fourid that the titles, the records of them and of the claims were in hopeless confusion. Lawyer Helnze discovered that the richest of (he Boston & Montana company's properties the Comanche, had an imperfect title. Thiy mine had been merged from tw the Comanche and the Dayton. It was supposed the Dayton claim had been bought by the Boston and Montana peo- ple. Patrick Largey had deeded a two. thirds interest in the Dayton to the Co. manche, but the astute Helnze dlscovered that Largey had owned but one-third by ‘his © clalms, Can f)umllh a good coal for §5.00.

TRAGEDIES ON THE FLOOR Killing Results of the Strenuous Pace on the New York Stock Exchange, The welter of a fleld day of the exchange has been likened to that of Paul's fight with beasts at Ephesus. But the apostle's best claim lay in his endurance of a more con- tinuous test. Veterans of the clvil war, who during years of service never knew what a day might bring forth, have confessed that in their worst battles and most tollsome marches they did not undergo the physical and mental strain, the “I dle dally” of the ever-renewed campalgn upon the floor. Yet in the actual presence there of the King of Terrors—in his few entrances—he has at once stayed all contests. Greed, passion, triumph, fear, have been quelled by his quos ego. One becomes wonted to the floor's swift circumstance, as to the motion of a ship at sea. Only something abnormal will impress him—nothing more so than a sud- den hush and a questioning of what it | means. Occaslons which seared themselves into the memory were the three within a single decade, upon each of which a well known member of the board dled in the exchange, two of them in the very center of its stage. An impression that instantaneous deaths are more likely to occur here than else- where 18 ngt confirmed by the record. As a class the brokers, after long service, carry no more marks of nervous strain than other active business or professional men. It may be that some, whose constitutions are | poorly adapted to the work, find it prudent | to withdraw at the first symptom of or-| ganic deterforation. An expert - actuary might tell us how many among 50 men who move and deal together, under the special | conditions, for a score of years, ought to | dle in their tracks. That three should have | done so within memory of the street, and all in a single decade, does not imply a' large percentage, even when allowance is made for continual recruiting. So when the Intruder forced at last his several entrances each was in the nature of a surprise and seemed discourteous, if mot without war- rant. But such considerations were quickly overcome by the dramatic quality of each episode. The first took place close upon noon of a midsummer day, and was impressive from the fact that the stricken man was the vice president of the exchange, who had just announced the death of another mem- ber, and was descending from the rostrum, i when he staggered and grew pale, was as- sisted to the hallway, was lald down, and forthwith breathed his last. This, indeed, | was a broker's final “call to the door;"” but as the Dark Summoner had kept without the gateway, the event, bowever startling, | was less spectacular than his return and actual intrusion upon the floor three years | of financial alarms, the room was crowded, ‘Chicago Great Western Railway Announces the Opening of the New Short Ling to St, Paul snd Minneapolis Two \Superbly Equipped Trains daily, making fast time.

Sud- denly the midmost group divided, and then began that strange hush widening like & mist to every side. Trading ceased, though few at first knew why or how. And there @ man lay in his last tremor, with one or two comrades ministering, and others brac- ing themselves back to give him air. Then a stretcher, borne by two men, entered from somewhere, while the entire assemblage formed a circle extending to the boundaries of the room. Bo died at once a colleague before the eyes of all. The silence, the baring of heads, the lifting of the dead, the solemn, sturdy march of his carriers to the exit, were like nothing %0 much as & scene on the stage of some great theater, in some historic play. It was followed immediately by that action taken only upon imperative sacrifice, the adverse arbiters had for the moment ceased their spicen. Add so the old life went on for days and months and years, and no trap-door again opened be- neath one of these wayfarers upon the bridge of Mirsa, until the seventh year came round. Then precisely the same scene was again enacted. Another ofd-time mem- ber, also dealing near the center of the room, was smitten, sank down, and died immediately in the sight of all. Again the hush, the awed circle, the stretcher, the removal, the adjournment. Since then the Intruder has kept aloof from the guarded sanctuary of the exchange itself, although its life-menacing excilements never have exceeded those of the last five years. Youth, strength and hope, meanwhile, have ted the weakened reserve in turn “there is no armor against fate."— Edmund C. Stedman in the Century.
