j ner from llrr Homo,
San Francisc ), .June 10.—Three
suits for damages. aggregating $150,-
000, have been begun against the Pa
cific Mail Steamship Co. as the result
of the loss of the steamer folium. One
suit was brought by Charles Thornton,
whose wife was a passenger on the
Colima; another by Mrs. Thomas Cray,
whose husband was in charge of
the refrigerator room, and the third
by Capt. C. C. Struckmann, whose
mother was drowned. The complaints,
as prepared by Attorney Phillips,
charge that the cargo of the steamer
was badly stowed and that the officers
showed neglect in not giving the pas-
sengers warning of danger so they
could have taken measures to save
their lives. It is charged that life
preservers were not given to the
passengers and that there were
not life preservers enough on
board to supply all who needed
them. George D. Ross, formerly a sea-
man in the United States navy, was the
principal witness at yesterday’s Colima
investigation, lie thought Capt. Tay-
lor and the other officers incompetent,
adding that no effort had been made
to save the passengers, or even warn
them of danger, and no effort had
been made to set sail aft to steady the
vessel. He characterized the state-
ment of Third Officer Hansen that the
boats were in proper condition for low-
ering as a tissue of lies only equaled
by Hansen's other false statements re-
garding the shipwreck. lit* said that
the Colima’s boats were swung in with
covers on and lashed down, falls un-
hooked and all parts of the falls
strapped to the davit ts.

The Itlrlient Min* In l ulnnelo Shut Down
for an I ii 11 ii 11«» I linr.
Denyi:n, Col., June 10.—A special
from Lake City, Col., says: A scheme
of gigantic proportions has been un-
earthed by which the Golden Fleece
Mining Co. has been systematically
robbed for a number of months and
yesterday it was announced that the
mine would shut down for an indefi-
nite period at once. The thieving has
been confined to high grade ores and
will reach enormous proportions as the
»moiint stolen has exceeded one-
half of their monthly output,
which has reached $40,000 per
Month. These figures seem possible
ml v when the richness of the high
Trade ore is taken into consideration.
The company has offered a reward of
!*11,000 for information leading to the
irrest and conviction of each person
implicated in the robberies. The mine
mis been paying regular monthly divl-
lends of $12,0)0 for over two years.
I’he wages paid the men are the high-
est in the state. The Golden Fleece is
the richest in Colorado, and probably
in the country. The company has
placed sentinels at all the works to
prevent further thefts.

inonia exists, or ever has existed, in
Kansas, and that the rumor to that ef-
fect was ridiculously false. A resolu-
tion was adopted in favor of having a

lic health and that none hut graduates

One Man Killed.
South Bend, Ind., June 16.—Fora
year or more an organized gang of
thieves have been terrorizing this vi-
cinity, holding up freight trains and
looting Lake Shore cars, and have re-
cently committed several murders.
Three of the gang last evening held up
a dozen tramps a few miles west of
here, who were stealing a ride on a
Lake Shore freight. The three men,
all armed, held up the entire gang at
the points of their revolvers, and pro-
ceeded to search them for valuables.
In attempting to leave tin* car, after
relieving the prisoners of $8, one of the
thugs slipped and fell under the wheels
of the moving train, and was instantly
killed. This maddened the two rob-
bers remaining in the car, and they
forced the twelve men they had robbed
to leap from the car. Joseph Frances,
one of the tramps, demurred against
jumping, was shot in the neck and
then shoved from the Hying train. An-
other of the tramps, an old man, was
probably fatally injured by the fall.

New York, June 16.- A great trust is
forming, which will have for its object
the entire control of the wood-pulp pa-
per making industry in the United
States. Nearly all the prominent pa-
per men were at the New Netherland
hotel, where a meeting was held for
the purpose of mapping out a plan of
campaign. They are extremely reti-
cent concerning their plans, though
they admit that they intend to com-
bine and obtain control of the paper
business. It is claimed that a combina-
tion of interests will enable makers to
manufacture paper with greater econ-
omy, and consequently more proHt, al-
though it is said to be no part of the

KANSAS UNDERFLOWS.
Strong Water Supply Near Neil City—The
Well* of the State.
Lawrence, Kan., June 16.—Prof. E.
Haworth, director of the university
geological survey and member of thf
state irrigation commission, who ha?
just returned from the southwestern
part of the state, says that the wells
near Ness City have reached the Da-
kota sandstone, the greatest water
bearing deposit in the northern and
western portion of the state.at a depth
of 250 feet. The water rises over 2()(
feet in the wells and the quantity if
unlimited. This stratum of sandstone
dips to the east and it was a sur-
prise to the geologists to find that it
extends so f ir south and east. The
same deposit has been reached in the
extreme southwestern corners of the
state. Prof. Haworth believes that
there are many places in the south and
southwest where irrigation of more
than three or four acres by means of
well water is impossible, but he is con-
fident that it will prove a success in
the Arkansas valley and in the high
lands which are underlaid by any of
the water bearing formations.

Topeka, Kan., June 16.—The poli-
ticians look for the arrest of State
Bank Commissioner Breidenthal on
the charge of violating the law gov-
erning the administration of the
finances of the office. C. S. Jobes,
Cyrus Leland and Congressman Chester
I. Long were in consultation several
hours yesterday afternoon and last j
night, and afterward the report be- j
came current that Breidenthal was to ■
be arrested. The complaint is to be
sworn to by State Accountant Challi-
nor, who made the transcript of Hreid*
enthal’s hooks.
Breidenthal s^id this morning that
he looked for a warrant of arrest to be
served on him some time during the
day. He said he lnul no fears of the
result of the proceedings and h is only
concern was that it would take time
which he ought to give to his office
and would involve him in an expense
which he could not well afford.
But he had no idea of surrendering.
He proposed to tight the case to a
tin ish.
STATE OF TRADE.
Reports Continue Favorable Good News
Concerning Crops.
New York, June 16.—It. G. Dun &
Co.’s Weekly Review of Trade says: It
is no longer a question whether busi-
ness improves. Not for a long time
have our reports from all parts of the
country been so uniformly favorable.
The daily average of bank clearings in
June is 24.8 per cent, larger than last
year, though 11.4 per cent, less than in
1892. The most potent influence has
been receipt of more favorable advices
regarding growing crops. Labor trou-
bles are getting out of the way, wages
in many establishments are rising and
with the iron industry just now lead-
ing, there is general improvement in
manufactures. Monetary condition also
helps. The time draws near when good
crop exports will bring gold hither
and though foreign operations in stocks
and bonds have been insignificant this
week, the effect of the previous
transactions has not been exhaust
ed. Much diminished receipts of
money from the interior indicate
better employment in business, and
especially at the west, and the volume
of commercial loans steadily rise and i*
now fair for this season even in a good
year. Western receipts for two weeks
of .June were 5,116,680 bushels wheat
against 3,001,202 last year, while At-
lantic exports, flour included, were
only 2,634,847, against 4.630.227 last
year. Effects of the rise in prices were
seen in tjie official report of May ex-
ports, showing a decrease of 1,000,000
bushels from Atlantic, but an increase
of 2,000,000 from Pacific in exports.
The price was reduced 2kj in trading.
Porn also declined about 1 cent with
better reports of growth.
Failures for the past week have been
241 against 232 last year.
FOREIGN IMPORTS LARGE.

Washington, June 16.—The bureau j
j of statistics, in its report on the im- 1
I ports, exports and immigration of the j
I United States, during the month of J
j May and the eleven months ended with I
i May, shows that the exports of domes- 1
tic merchandise diming the month of |
May amounted to $62,720,625. a gain of
■ $4,000,000over May, 1894. For the eleven
months, the exports of merchandise
I amounted to only $739,651,937, a loss of
nearly $74,000,000. The imports of mer-
chandise during May amounted to $66.-
! 025,000, of which nearly $31,000,000 |
! came in free of duty. The gain for the
! month over May, 1894, was about $10,-
. 000,000, and for the eleven months the 1
j gain was about $74,000,000, or al-
i most exactly the amount lost on
exports. The exports of gold coin and
j bullion during May amounted to $410,-
756. and the imports, $4,860,926. For
the eleven months the gold exports
amounted to $64,831,227, and the im-
ports, $33,056,005. The exports of sil-
ver during May aggregated 85.727,041,
and the imports to $742,845.
During the eleven months the exports
I of silver amounted to $44,311,446 and
! the imports to $8,576,471. The number
of immigrants who arrived during
May was 49.144, an increase over May,
1894, of about 16,000. During the eleven !
months there was a falling off of about
4.i, 500.

Washington, June 16.—The director
of the mint, R. F. Preston, estimates
the world’s production of gold for the
calendar year 1894 to have approxi-

Mr. Preston estimates the world’s
production of silver for 1894 at 165,- |
918.338 tine ounces of the coining value
of $214,381,000; the bullion value of the
same at the average price (viz.: 031J'
cents) of silver for 1894, was $105,348,-
135, showing a difference be- i
tween the coining and bullion
value of $109,132,965. The increase
in the production of silver in 1891
over 1893 was 722,000ounces. The great-
est increase in the production of silver
was: Bolivia, $10,800,000; Mexico, $3,- j
500,000; Peru, $2,000,000; Chili, $1,400,- !
000; Greece, $1,400,000. Both the pro-
duction of gold and silver exceeded
that of any prior year in the world’s
history.

An Eccle*la*tlcal Tribunal Considering t hr
< a*** of Mother Duc*he*ne.
Sr. Charles. Mo.. June 16.—The ec-
clesiastical tribunal for examining in-
to the case of Mother Duchesne as a
preparatory step to canonizing her as
a saint of the Roman Catholic church,
held a session yesterday at the convent
of the Sacred Heart in this city. The
proceedings consisted of the hearing of
evidence from those with whom she
was associated during her life and con-
nected with the convent here. Rev.
Fathers Lang,McDermott, Muhlscipen,
and McCabe, of St. Louis, conducted
the examination of the witnesses, who
testified to the devout and holy life led
by Mother Duchesne during her resi-
dence in St. Charles. Some time ago
a similar session of the ecclesiastical
tribunal was held at the Mother-
hoiu e of the Sacred Heart Order in St.
Louis, where like investigations were
conducted. To be cannonizcd as a
saint of the Catholic church is an un-
common and most interesting pro-
cedure. and the culmination of the
present investigations of Mother Du-
chesne’s life will he one of very few
instances of the kind in church his-
tory. A record of the miracles that
have been attributed to the holy life of
the devout mother has been kept since
her death in 1855, and these with the
result of the ecclesiastical investiga-
tions, will be sent to the pope, through
the archbishop of the diocese, when
final action will be taken. There are
no less than fourteen steps to be gone
through before the candidate is de-
clared a saint.

charged insanity against him and the
court set aside the transaction and ap-
pointed a commissioner to take charge
of the property for the heirs of Fergu-
son. Ferguson returns now and claims
he has recovered and sues for posses-
sion of his land. The case lias been on
triul several days.
