THE FATE OF THE EscAMBIA.

Further inquiry has not made the loss OF
the steamer Escambia any more Ineligible,
though the suggestion of a dispatch which
we published yesterday, that her high bull
warks may have contributed to her cranki-
ness by retaining the seas which .she
shipped on the bar, possibly furnishes a
clue to the cause CT the disaster. The as
sertion of the stevedores that the emptying
of her ballast tanks could not have had
anything to do with her capsizing, is alb
surd. By creating vacancy below her
cargo, and by loading her upper deck with
coal, she was unquestionably rendered top
heavy. A well laden ship, even with such
bulwarks, could not have been swamped
by the heaviest sea that ever broke on the
San Francisco bar. If, however, as is now
alleged, one of her bunker matches was
torn off by the seas, the swiftness Of her
sinking is partially accounted for. In such
circumstances, too, an iron ship is always
at disadvantage, because an amount of
water which wooden vessel could carry
easily in her hold, will sink the metallic
hull. The probability of saving the
steamer is of course very slight. She has
wheat cargo, and its swelling may burst
the hull but if this does not occur the ex.
pense of raising her must be so great that
her owners will be unlikely to take the
risk. Meantime the Naval Investigating
Committee has difficult case to unravel.

wHsELER's GOOD FORTUNE.

Wheeler, the woman stranger, has been
granted new trial by the Supreme Court
on the ground that the lower Court I" erred
" in allowing the District Attorney to read
" from Brownies work on insanity without
" first proving that the work was gene
rally accepted as standard in jurispru-
dence." This is ruling which is not
calculated to increase the popular respect
for the Courts. 1t is a thoroughly
frivolous and trivial ground upon which to
grant new trial. The point taken by
the Supreme Court was a matter of no
consequence to the outcome of the trial.
But because of this puerile bubble MUIR
derous sceundrel, who has been able to
evade the gallo@s for nearly two years al
ready, is given new lease of life, and a
very good chance to escape with sentence
of manslaughter after all.

and seam mining pollutes the rivers, we
are obliged to say that it is nonsensical.
About this there is no room for con-
troveray. If hydraulic mining were stopped
completely, the other kinds of mining
would continue to "pollute the water of
the rivers. But there is another and
much more serious defect in the reasoning
of our correspondent. He is opposed to
dams, and he demands "the use of the riv-
ers in their natural purity" But without
dams the purity of the water can
not be restored !; for even ii n.y.
draulic mining ceases there will
still remain $50 600, 900 yards of pol
luting matter in the upper channels
of the rivers, and it has been calculated
by the engineers that it will require some
seven years to get rid of this accumula-
ton. Again, we are told that the farmers
of Wheatland are opposed to compromise
because the miners have nothing to con-
cede But that is mistake 1t is in the
power of the miners to litigate every case,
and thus to keep the matter in the Courts
very much longer. and to entail heavy ex-
penses upon their opponents. 1t is well
worth while, therefore, on the score of
economy alone, for the farmers to make
friendly arrangement with them. Nor is
this all. The miners will not build dams
so long as the farmers refuse to accept
Judge Temples decision. The absence of
dams, however, will expose the farmers to
all the incaleulable injury to which they
are liable from the descent Of the enor-
nous accumulation Of debris now in the
river beds above them. The truth is that
the Wheatland farmers misapprehend their
position. Judge Temples decision has not
made them safe. Nothing can make them
safe but the holding back OF the debris in
the rivers. There is enough there now to
swamp their lands, and we tell them
plainly that they are very foolish if they
refuse to act on the assumption that they
are yet long way from being out of dan
ger. At present they are building far too
much upon the advantages they have
gained, and they are actually endangering
the retention of those advantages by i'm
agining that they are in a position to die.
tate terms, when they have only secured a
vantage ground which, if they have any
wisdom, they will avail themselves of to
negotiate with their adversaries.

The Strikers.

NEW YORK, July 26.-About fifteen
Italians and Germans at work in
the place of the strikers at st.
Johns Park depot, this morning
struck and left the building, because
the company would not pay then 20
cents per hour, the advance de-
manded by the strikers.
A fight occurred to-day on Broad
way at Canal street, between a party
of striking freight handlers and a
party of Italians, whom they sought
to prevent from going to work at
st. Johns Park depot of the New
York Central Railroad. The strikers
had met the Italians at their houses
on the east side, and, finding they
could not dissuade them from
going to work were followed, and at
the corner of Broadway and Canal
streets, attacked the Italians. The
latter were game and the fight last
ed some time. Finally couple of
shots were fired, and one of the
strikers fell with bullet in his chest.
The rest ran and the Italians pur>
sued and drove them several blocks.
One italian was terribly wounded in
the face by blow with stevedore' S
cotton hook. Alter the battle a
squad of police escorted the police to
their work. The laboring force al
st. Johns Park was much reduced
to~day by absenteeism The Laight
street doors of the depot were
not opened, and a line of trucks ex
tended six or seven blocks from the
depot on several streets.
