NEVADA COUNTY'S SHOW. | According to the claims made by Sam- uel Butler in the Grass Valley Union the cost of the mineral display of Ne- vada County at the St. Louis Exposi- tion is but $2500. So far a shortage of only $200 is in sight, and this will be made good by the Supervisors or the mine owners.

Nothing of a boom char- acter is to be noted, but many lines show gains over the corresponding pe- ! riod of 1903, confirmation of this being found in the record of September rail- road earnings. Clearings are greater than last October's weekly totals. The underlying confidence is perhaps best shown by the increased ease in collec- tions, reports as to which are better than for nearly twenty years past. The improvement in the corn and wheat crops, favored by exceptionally warm weather for this season of the year, has produced freer buying from operators in the Central West and Northwest Business is also better on the Pacific same warm weather, however, is a drawback to retail business, which needs the stimulus of sharp, cold, weather. In the Northwest rather less activity is noted because of this, and at the South there is a general report that the warm, dry weather, which is fa- vorable to picking cotton, is holding the demand back considerably. Eastern trade also reflects unseasonable weath- er in its effect upon current demand for fall and winter wear goods, but there is in addition a backwardness in de- mand for dry goods. Hides and wool are strong. | Our foreign trade returns are irregu- lar in that while showing record cotton shipments for the season our wheat ex- port trade has practically disappeared, our export flour trade has shrunk greatly and corn shipments are likewise very small. Provisions exports show a shrinkage, but cattle, oil, copper, iron and steel and general manufactured exports show gains. Exports of leading agricultural products, despite the rec- ord shipments of cotton, are the small- | est for nine months reported since 1897. | The reports from leading industrial | centers are fully as good as recently | made. Lumber is active at the West, | but quiet at the East.

Local report places the cost of the land at something like $100 an acre. The Grass Valley Union says that large improvements have been ordered for the New York-Grass Valley mine, including a 100-light electric plant for the illumination of the mine; also the erection of a sand or slime plant to handle all the tailings from the mine. The company has paid for its property in full, consisting of 720 acred of pat- ented land. According to the Placerville Nugget the Landecker Mining Company has now three tunnels that open up river channels for several hundred feet. A gravel mill with a capacity of 150 tons a day is about ready to operate. The company has 412 acres of mining ground on the channel that was worked some years ago at the Big Cut. RETURNS ANALYZED. Some interesting figures of gold pro- duction are found in the report of Di- rector Roberts of the United States Mint. There are fourteen States and Territories of the Union that are gold producers. Colorado leads with $22,- 000,000 in round figures; California comes second with $16,000,000; Alaska third with $8,000,0¢ Scuth Dakota fourth with $6,000,000; Arizona and | Montana are close together in the race for fifth place with more than $4,000,- 000 to be credited to each; then in or- der of output come Utah, Nevada, Idaho, Oregon, Washington, New Mex- ico, South Carclina and Wyoming. Some surprise may be experienced when South Carolina is enrolled in this list, but the fact is that South Caro- lina in 1903 had a gold output of half the size of that credited severally to Washington and New Mexico, its show- ing in total being $100,700. { kota, the Homestake, produced last year 1,300,000 tons of ore, the value of which was $4,800,558 40. It will be borne in mind that the entire output of the State of South Dakota was $6,000,000 in round figures. One great mining com- bination, therefore, gives South Da- kota its position near the head of the line. Comparing the gold output- of the . { various countries of the world for 1903, Australia is first with $89,000,000 to its credit; the United States second with | $73,000,000 and Africa third with $67,- | 000,000. Canada and Mexico produced, | respectively, $18,000,000 and 310.000,000.. Russia leads Europe with $24.000,000 and Colombia the Spanish American States One mining company in Scuth Da- | 1 5 bushels.

Satisfactory news from lead- | ing iron and steel centers tends to! strengthen confidence elsewhere, as the | consumption of iron has been found a | good barometer of business conditions. | Jobbing and wholesale trade in fall and | winter wearing apparel expands grad- ually and such sprinx lines as are opened meet with a fairly satisfactory | reception considering the recent indis- | position to provide for future require- | ments. At many points the return of warm weather checked the revival of | retail trade in heavy business, but as | that movement had begun much earlier than usual the net result thus far is | better than last vear.” | Building operations have expanded at | some cities, being a noteworthy record for the month of September and the permits recently issued promise well! for the future. Labor is fairly well employed according to the latest offi- | cial trades union reports, although the Fall River strike has lasted longer than expected. Railway earnings in the first week in September were 6.08 per cent lower than in 1903. Raw wool is in good de- mand at fall prices. Recent large pur- chases of hides established prices in a ! firm position but are followed by less activity. ! Failures this week were 206 in the United States against 208 last year and in Canada 24, compared with 26 a year;j ago. !

The authorities of the university are highly incensed over the reports con- cerning the prevalence of diphtheria at Stanford and vicinity. While it is true that two football players, U. H. Dole and W. K. Roosevelt, were at one time confined to the hospitai pecause of the disease, both are now out on the foot- ball field and there has been no spread of contagion- No order has been is- sued by Dr. Jordan requiring inocula- tion as a preventive measure among the football men and no such order will be sent out. “It is a mere scare,” said Dr. Snow, health officer for the univer- sity, “‘and at no time has there been enough diphtheria here to cause any alarm. Antitoxin has been advised to those who have come in contact witi the diphtheria in Palo Alto and May- feld.” Dispatch to The Call. ——————— Steamer, Mill and Wharf Burned. VICTORIA, B.

The announcement of the engage- ment of the young officer and the charming daughter of the Grants was made by the bride-to-be’s father when he left for New York, several days ago. At that time he gave out that the wedding would take place some time, this fall, but did not intimate that the ceremony would take place so soon after the announcement of the engage- ment, ————— GRIFFITH TRIED TO BREAK ENGAGEMENT TO MARRY Sensational Letter Written by Los An- geles Capitalist to Woman He Attempted to Kill Appears.

In this letter Griffith sought to break his engagement to Miss Mary Agnes Christina Mesmer, he tells her he is reluctantly compelled to state that he fears she is a tool in the hands of her father. He charges that she misrepresentéd her wealth to him, that she and her father are trying to impose on him, and asks that he be re- leased from the engagement.

The commission proposes to avoid raising opposition to | a direct subsidy measure by suggesting that an increase in the tonnage tax | levied on the Ships of all nations be made, which will result in an income | of several million dollars annually, to be devoted to the payment of subsidies. Another indirect method of increas- ing the amount to be paia for an| | American merchant marine will be | | suggested in a revision of the ocean | | mail subsidy act of 1891. An effort will be made to encourage the establishment | of American lines to foreign ports and | | countries not now reached by Amer- ican ships. A provision will be made | | for utilizing vessels thus subsidized as auxiliary cruisers of the navy in time | | of war. | The bill will also probably include a | provision transferring the Government | | transport business to commercial lines, | | which will receive a moderate subsidy | | in return, in the effort to build up trade | | between the United States and the | | Orient. The opposition of foreign coun- | i ; tries to a direct discriminating duty on | cargoes brought to the United States | in foreign bottoms may be avoided by applying this method of subsidy only to steamers running on no steamers. —_— e®———— ZUELA THREATENED WITH A REVOLUTION [ vEN Arrests Being Made in Order to Check | the Movement Before It | Breaks Forth, | WASHINGTON, Oct. 14.—Private advices received here from Venezuela | are to the effect that many arrests are being made there to check a revolu-| tionary movement on a large scale, | which is being directed against Presi- dent Castro’s administration. | There are similar advices as to con- ditions in Hayti, where the Govern- | ment is acting with great energy to suppress all agitation. ——— | Army Orders From Washington. | WASHINGTON.
