san Francisco Excited.

Francisco was unearthed recently.
Some time ago the police obtained in
formation of the existence of an or
ganization called "The Socialistic
Revolutionary Association" which, it
was asserted, was composed of ultra
socialistic members. A close watch
was kept on their movements, and.the
police finally succeeded in obtaining
the minutes of one of their meetings,
held Oh November %. From the
facts discovered it was found to be
the intention of the Association to
s"put out of the way about twenty
men, including VIM. I. Coleman, w.
w. Morrow, Gen. w. H. l.. Barnes,
Mayor Bartlett, John Lord Love,
Judge Wilson, Judge Hoffman, Judge
Sawyer, Leland Stanford, Charles
Croker. Chief Crowley, Capt. Lees.
Capt. Douglass, Judge Tobin, Gov.
Stoneman, Col. Bee, Capt. Short, Col.
Stuart M. Taylor, M. II. De Young,
Gen. Turnbull, Claus Spreckles and
Dennis Kearney. The names were
placed on ''Proscriptive List" and
placed in the hands of the Executive
Committee to carry out the orders of
the Association. The committee were
to devise the best means of accom-
plishing the ends of the base plot,
and were thus engaged when their
work was brought to sudden ter
,mination by the discovery of the AS
sociation's headquarters at 900 Mont
gomery avenue. by the police, and
the arrest of four men found therein
Julius G. Koosher, Henry Weis-
man, Charles Mitteistadr and Oscar
Eggers. In the room was also found
a complete laboratory for manufac-
turing internal machines. The men
were taken to the city prison, where
they boldly asserted they were dyna-
miters, and proposed to get rid of the
citizens named and then raze China
town. The prisoners also belong to
the German branch of the Anti Coo
lie League. The leader of the band
of dynamiters arrested is Henry
Weisman, a Bavarian by birth and a
chemist by profession, rs years old.
He resided with his family, SIS Pa
,cific street and is the President of
the German Anti-Coolie Club, and
President of the Fifth Ward Anti
Cooiie League.
Co being questioned he said: ssMy
intention was to aid in enforcing
what tO'Donnell stold us was law
against the Chinese. The only thing
tahat troubled me was that Coroner
O,Donnell was always saying that the
Gshlese werewolf supplied with arms,
aijl~hhey had armoriesin Chinatown
and were drilling every night with
Winchester rifles. / wassafraid that

The Montreal authorities seem to be
allowing everything calculated to favor
the spread Of the small box, and leaving
undone the commonest precautions. Sim.
ply lax quarantine is established over
honses containing the sick and dead and
slight supervision is exercised over persons
entering or leaving the city. Monday an
open air concert was listened to by an in
discriminate crowd Of 10000 people. and
in the evening there were fireworks and .
reception to the French delegates now on
. visit to Montreal. The crowd in the
evening was as great and the delegates
were introduced to several thousand per-
sons. The last report shows that the dis
ease was probably abating, and all this
carelessness may result in terrible resus.

COS reported in 1880, or nearly per cent.
year The population has almost doubt
ed during the lifetime OF generation,
the record in 1850 being 994.5l4. Thirty.
five years ago Boston contained less than
one-seventh OF all the people. and the
dozen largest cities in the state together
had only about 80 per cent. Of the whole
population Of the state. Now Boston con-
tains considerably more than fifth Of the
whole population, and the dozen largest
cities together comprise within their limits
above 45 per cent Of oil the people. So
severe has been the drain Of the towns
upon the agricultural districts that in the
hill counties many places can be found
which do not support half as many people
as they did in 1850.

The Montana improvement Co.

Mr.. Blair, the Northern Pacific land
attorney, appeared before the Interior
del artment at Washington on Monday
to argue the Montana Improvement COM
pany's care. He made the point that if
lands from which the compsny had cut
timber are held to be now mineral lands,
the consequence must be that large
tract of land heretofore withheld from
Northern Pacific railroad company on
the ground that it is mineral land which
is expressly reserved in the granting act,
will tall to the road. Assistant Secretary
jerks decided to extend temporarily the
extension of the suits against the COM
pany, Further arguments will be heard
and it is expected that number of law
years will appear in the case. Judge
jerks when asked what he thought of
point made by Mr.. Blair, said: "Well,
all we want IS light. believe there are
something like thirty lawyers ready to
argue the case, and we will have them
and see if they can illuminate the law in
til matter. The thing seems to be cut
both ways, according to Mr.. Blair. 1t
won't pay to sue for couple hundred
cords of wood and lose thousand
acres of land, but then we shall see what
we shall see.p At the land Office the
law clerks, who are briefng the cases
against the improvement company,
laughed at Blair's point. 'The fact is,
it was said, eve claim the lands cut from
are mineral lands The point they fail
to see is in the words of the act, "domes-
tic uses To cut timber from mineral
lands for settlers and for mining oper-
ations is all right. To cut, manufacture
and sell it, is not the intent of the per-
mission given in the statutes"
Commissioner Sparks has addressed to
Secretary Lamar complete review of
eompany's operations, including copy
of the contract between the company
and the Northern Pacific for stumpage.
