The Coroner's inquest is likely to last for

EXPLANATIONS REFUSED.
The conductor of the wrecked traiz-Will-
lam L. Bones, sou of ex-senator -J2ues-- :
still conhded to his bed by injuries in the
spine. When approached to-day by your
reporter, Bones persistently declined to make
any statement relative to the accident, saying
that be was afraid by so doing he would incur
the displeasure Of President Davis If Davis
would sanction it, then he would willingly
give his version OF the disaster. Subsequently
Davis fatty refusedTo sanction such state
ment by Bones, or to make any himself
declaring that while the company was not
afraid of the truth the publicity would, for
| an unexplained cause, operate to the injury
| OF the company he represented. The railroad
| officers who have been consulted each and all
refuse to make any satisfactory explanation
beginning to assume very mysterious and
suspicious aspect.
A PROFESSIONAL ENGINEER'S STORY
Howard Antrim, a professional civil en-
gineer and regular brakeman Of the road,
was on the engine at the time the accident
| occurred. He states that Mr.. Walker, the
train dispatcher, telegraphed from Oakland
to send on the local train from here to FELTON,
large engine with Elliott in charge of it,
| with Bones as conductor and Mclean as
| brakeman. The idea in this was that there
would be an excursion train of Is cars to re-
! turn from this city to San Francisco in the
afternoon, for which three large engines were
needed to push up the grade. The regular
engine for the local train being but small
| tweive-tOn engine, he deemed it necessary to
use the large thirty-ton one which Elliott
runs. Neither The engineer, conductor nor
| brakemen had ever been over the road be-
fore, and when they reached the Big Trees
! the engineer asked Antrim to go with him to
Santa Cruz, to show him the road. Antrim,
with the permission of his conductor, did so.
A MIRACULOUS ESCAPE.
T Mrs. E. J. Swift, Miss Lulu Wilson and
Mrs Skinner, the wife and relatives of E. J.
Swift, of the Pacific Ocean House, and Clerk
SINNERS wife, were on the wrecked train,
sitting in the same seat with Mrs Hussey
when the cars jumped the track Mrs. Hus-
sey was killed, but Mrs. Swift and her COM
panions, strange to say, escaped without the
slightest injury. The faces and clothes of the
latter ladies were. however, bespattered with
the blood and brains of the unfortunate Mrs.
Hussey.

MINING NOTES.

A lump OF pure gold, weighing S44S, was
picked up on the Swauk, Yakima county,
w. T., lately.
! Considerable excitement prevails respect
ing quartz lodges near Gold Run, Placer
county, several of which have been located
recently.
Rich quartz lodges have recently been
discovered near Allegheny, Sierra county,
and the country along the creeks is located
/ for miles.
The miners strike at the Rising Sun
mine, near Colfax, is at an end. The Su-
perintendent, finding that the men would
not work at the reduced rates, and were
disposed to prevent others taking their
places, concluded to give their old rates,
IS per day.
Numerous gravel mining companies at
Sierra City are making arrangements to
incorporate, and several have done SO al
ready within few months 1t is figured
out by old prospectors that at least three
very rich blue-lead channels course through
the high ridges above that mining camp.
The Virginia Enterprise says that on the
Comstock flow of an inch of water is es-
stimated as being equal to from I2a to IL
feet per minute. Superintendent Boyle,
of the Alta mine, who has made many ex-
periments says l3 gallons per minute is,
in round numbers, about as near it as can
be figured.
The owners of the Midnight Consolidated
mine, in Sunrise District, Lyon county,
Nevada, claim to have run their tunnel
through a wide ledge of graphite. The
miners for long time considered it shale
coal and paid no attention 10 the stuff,
until visitor to the mine informed them
of the nature and value of the ore.
The Portland Oregonian reports strike
about six miles from Baker City. The
owners are now taking out with hand
mortar at the rate of thousand dollars
day. 1t appears the pocket is increasingin
width and richness, and so far they have
taken ont $4,000. If it keeps on the
chances are that they may take out
millions.
A. W. Say, of Oil City, Pa, has pur-
chased the Sunset mine for himself and
other Pennsylvania capitalists for $4,000
| The Sunset is located in the Tombstone
| district, Arizona, within one mile and
half of the famous Tough Nut, which it
promises to rival in the richness of its re-
! turns. A shaft has been sunk $50 feet, at
which depth the ledge is four feet wide,
the ore assaying from $500 to $4,000 per
| ton..
A former superintendent Of one of the
Comstock mines, who recently went to
Globe City, y. T., to take charge of a mine
there, thus writes to the Gold Hill NelCs.
"The mine is about 100 miles north of
| Tucson. The ore Is very rich, but the
veins are small and have not been sunk
upon sufficiently to prove their permanence;
in fact, most of the ore taken out so far is
from veins which spread over the country
neartbe surface like ablanket, butare gener-
orally rich, ranging from $500 to s., 0G0 per
ton. Water is somewhat scarce, but there
is pretty fair supply of scrub timber for
tirewood. Good timber Is found fifty miles
away. The cost OF living is fifty per cent.
higher than On the Comstock, and wages
Just the same. There are plenty of broken
men here in search OF work. The climate
is as pleasant as in Virginia"

its shOaiing.
Especial to the RECORD .UNIoal
WASHINGTON, May oath Representative
Horace Davis to-day introduced resolution
directing the Secretary of the Treasury to
report to the House what carses, if any, are
tending to diminish the tidal area of the bay
OF San Francisco, and what action, if any,
has been taken by the Government a. the
United States, by the State OF Cali
fornia, or by corporations or individuals,
which will tend to lessen the tidal
scour of the bar of San Francisco,
and thereby decrease the depth of water ON
said bar, and diminish the value of San
Francisco bay as commercial harbor." The
purpose OF this resolution is to set on foot an
investigation by the Coast Survey to exhibit
the entire extent to which the tidal area had
been diminished, and thereby lay the groud-
work for intelligent action to remedy
the existing evils and avert possible
dangers. The principal "causes :" referred to
are, of course the deposits of mining debris.
The resolution otherwise has reference to
action " by the Federal Government in
constructing training walls at Oakland, to
the sale of tide lands, and the filing in of
Mission bay by authority of the city, to the
sale of submerged lands by the State, and to
the construction of wharf and filling in of
the water front at Oakland by the railroad
company.
