It having been telegrapbed to the Alta Cali tornia that "atter repeated failures, Col. Ba- ker had at last made a success" the Messrs. J. L. Ward & O., of Los Angeles, set the matter right, in late card, in which they say, truthfully, of course, "that no failure has occurred in Col. Bakers experiment His machine was in place and complete condition about January lst. On the 3d he fired up 10 dry 1t out; on January 4tb he charged it, and made run of twenty bars bullion on tue hlth, without single stoppage or mlshap, from the time the engine was first fired From tue beginning he ha. been running steadily up to January 10th, the date of our last advices, and has now one hundred and fifty bars bullion en route to Los Angeles We make this statement to counteract the impression which the despatch would convey, he effect of which would De obviously to i'm pair tue credit of the district with capitalists Gad with mining men generally"
