THE DREDGER GoING TO OAKLAHD.-Col-
onel Won Schmidts dredger, brought here
TO fill in China slough, will not perform
that work the Colonel having been sum-
moned to Oakland to complete his contract
with the National Government for work to
be performed in Oakland creek, and the
dredger will before the end of the month,
be taken down there. Early next week,
when the new machinery is all in place, ii

earth in the slough tested. Colonel Won
Schmidt proposes to have another dredger
built this winter, and his experience with
the present one VIII be valuable as showing
what amount of power will be necessary
and most economical for the work to be
done at the slough, and which the new
6redger will be called upon to execute.
