Collection of Government Revenues to Be
Looked After. but Miners \Vill Be
'._ Secured In Their Claims—Rea-
; - sonable Regulations.
"V\ \
Washington, Aug. 20.—The reguiatisns
promulgated by the Canadian govern-
ment with reference to placer mining in
the Yukon district have been made
known to the state department. It is
said that Canada will apply these regu-
lations to citizens of the United States
and to her own citizens alike, and that
there is, the'ielirc, no G. s: -:iminat'i-: 11
against the 1:12;;..—;'. i . :1!

the correspc. .« 111.21 canada with
reference 10 11,111c1s and miners’ supplies
in Alaska has been conducted from both
sides in a. spirit of co-operation rather
than of antagonism, and no ground of
complaint is found in the mining regula-
tions prescribed by the Dominion gov-
ernment.
One of the most conspicuous things in
the Canadian provisions regarding the
placer mines is the requirement of a
royalty to the government. Besides
this, however, the regulations contain
detailed rules to be followed by miners
with regard to the location, entry and
working of claims and the abandonment
"~ L191 . L1
Lush. a
; of them. Such terms of mining parlance
‘ 1 as bar diggings,
I diggings, miner, claim, legal post, close
bench diggings, dry
season, locality and mineral are care-
fully defined in the technical sense in
which they are used in the regulations.
Among the most important provisions
of the Canadian regulations are the fol—
lowing:
“Entry shall be granted only for alter-
nate claims, the other alternate claims
being reserved for the crown, to be dis-
posed of at public auction or in such
manner as may be deemed best by the
minister of the interior. '
Penalty For Trespass.
“The penalty of trespassing on a
claim reserved for the crown shall be
immediate cancellation by the gold
commissioners of any entry which the
person trespassing may have obtained.
Mounted police, at the instance of the
gold commissioner, may eject the tres-
passer.
“If any person discovers a new mine,
the gold commissioner may grant a
creek and river claim 750 feet in length
to the discoverer. Any new stratum of
auriferous earth or gravel situated in a
locality where all claims have been
abandoned, though the locality 'may
have been worked at a higher level,
shall be considered a. new mine.
“A claim may be recorded with the
gold commissioner in whose district it
is situated within three days after the
-NonAI.1~: -
location thereof if it is located within,
ten miles of the commissioner’s office.
An extra day will be allowed for each
additional ten miles of distance from
the commissioner’s office.
“An entry fee of $15 shall be charged
the first year and an annual fee of $100
for each of the following years that a
claim is held.
_“A royalty of 10 per cent on gold
mined shall be levied and collected by
officers to be appointed for the purpose,
provided the amount so mined and tak-
en from a. single claim does not exceed
$500 per week. In case the amount
mined and taken from any single claim
exeeeds $500 per week there shall be lev—
ied and collected a royalty of 10 per
cent upon the amount so taken out up
to $500, and upon the excess or amount
taken from any single claim over $500
per week there shall be levied a. royalty
of 20 per cent, such royalty to form part
of the consolidated revenues and to be
accounted for by the ofl‘lcers who col-
lect the same in due course.
In Default of Royalty.
"In default of payment of such roy-
alty, if continued for ten days after no-
tice has been posted upon the claim in
respect to which it is demanded, or in
the vicinity of such claim by the gold
commissioner or his agent, it shall be
followed by cancellation of the claim.”
The regulations provide that the en-
try of a claim must be renewed with the
gold commissioner each year, entry to
be accompanied by the payment of fee.
Other interesting provisions are made
to avert the occurrence of disputes
among miners and to protect the rights
of honest men in the region. It is pre-
scribed that no miner shall receive a
grant of more than one claim in the
same locality. He is permitted to buy
as many claims as he wishes from other
miners, however, and several miners
may work their claims in copartnership,
provided entries are made by individu—
als and the fees required by the govern-
ment are properly paid.
The regulation which affects the hold-
ing of a claim by a. miner who has made
entry of it is a rather strict one. A
claim is considered to have been aban-
doned and is liable, therefore, to be
opened to occupation in case it remains
unoccupied for 72 hours. It is explained
that by 72 hours is meant three consecu-
tive days of 24 hours each. The excep-
tions to the enforcement of this rule are
reasons of sickness or other causes
which may be ascribed by the claimant,
satisfactory to the gold commissioner.
Elaborate provision is made in the
Canadian regulations for the appoint-
ment and qualification of officers to en-
force the mining laws, and great pains
has been taken to secure a just admin-
istration of the rules.

Norwalk People are Talking
About it on every
Corner.
It is s metimes an easy matter to fool
the public, but you can’t keep it up
very long. They are sure to find you
out: and every time a man is fooled an-
o'her skept1c is made. Skepticism is
allowable when reading in a home
newspaper about some incident occur-
ring in San Francisco 01' Iowa, but. the
circumstances are entirely different
when it refers to some one right here
at home. friends and neighbors, people
you know, whom you can see, and with
whom you can talk it over. This is
the kind of evidence at the back of
Doan' s Kidney Pills—home statements
by home people, and the astonishing
local work they have been doing, has
caused more talk among our citizens
than the doings of any t'other modern
wonder. Read the following:

t1 ade. Like the majority of men who
follow this occupation he is troubled
with disordered kidneys. The requis-
ites to his calling her: ine, turpentine,
and other dryers excite and inflame
those organs and late in the fall he
found himself suiiering from a return
of the old complaint. aMrs. Owens ever
mindful of her husband’s welfare, pro-
cured for him a box of Doan’s Kidney
Pills at Hale 5 drug store and he used
them. \i1s. Owens says, “ My husband
has been greatly benefited by the use
of Dean’s Kidney Pills: Constant
working in white lead and mixing paint
has brought on kidney trouble and a
severe headache. {elief in any form
is always welcome and we are pleased
to recommend Dean’s Kidney Pills for

The Steinway Bun’neao [30130141371 to Have
Been Sold to n Fz'zsdlente.
New York, Ar”. 20.——‘.:’,-". we: r'ez'nrted
today the- the ‘c'.’ It'M-s 311:1 plat: of the
firm of Steinx'ay 8-. Sons, piano manu-
facturers, had been sold. to an English
syndicate for 56.000000. Tit: English
capitalists, it is said, l'::1'1‘:1c3'.1 nego-
tiating with the present members of the
firm since the death of William Sin-
Way in November.
This was denied some time ago by the
firm, but those who are in a position to
know declare that agcr is of the syndi-
cate have been care. “ul‘ y examining the
plant and the book's for months and
that an offer of $5,000,003 was made and
refused some time ago.
This offer, it is said, we 5 finally in-
creased to $6,000,000, the price asked by
the firm, and the deal concluded.
The firm of Steinway & Sons was
founded in 185.". by Henry Steinway, a
skilled piano maker, who came to this.
country from Germany. His three sons
became his partners.
The business prospered, and who:
Charles and Henry Steinway, Jr., died,
in 1859, their brother Theodore came
over from Brunswick and took a. place
in the firm. The great factory at As-
toria was built in 1872. In 1896 the prop-
erty of the firm was taxed at over- $5,-
000,000. William Steinway, the head of
the firm, died in November, 1896. He
left the businessto his sons.
Mahum Stetson, the secfetary of th;
firm, was seen at the FM teenth stxec':
office today. .
. “As far as we know'here,” he said,
"no deal has been consummated.
“Charles Steinway is at present in
Europe representing the firm, and it is
possible that he may have made a deal
W1 'th the syndicate.
“V. e should be apprised of the matter
at the earliest pcss1ble moment, and we
have not heard a word from Mr. Stein-
way. Nothing definite, therefore, has
been done, I believe. An English syn-
dicate has been negotiating with us for
several years, and a few years ago it
offered the firm $5,000,000 for its busi-
ness. New, with an increased business,
it is only fair to assume that if any of—
fer has been made it .-£.s been a much
larger one. ”
