A Young Girl Ruined and Sent to the

New York, February 21st.-Pretty, six
teen-year- old Flora McAuliffe is dying at
her home in Cherry street, from pelvic per-
itonitis. From her statement the police
have learned that most revolving crime
has been perpetrated by Mongolian fiends.
The girl, who is pretty and well developed
for her age, has been ailing for some time,
but would not tell her troubles until she
knew she was dying. She said she be-

laundry about six months ago when she

wretch gave her presents and induced her
to visit the place frequently. Later, she
met other Cinnamon, who taught her to
smoke opium, and finally made her
slave to its use Then they accomplished
their terrible purposes, and wrecked her
young life.
All Hens place has been known as an
opium joint, but the police could obtain
no evidence. Tonight All Kop Tom Lee
and Charley Hing were arrested on the
girls statement. Other Celestials are ac-
cused by the girl as accomplices in Ler
ruin. All Hen was recently arrested for
inveigling young girls to his den.

The PecuIiarities Of the Pacific Coast

The attention OF the Executive Commit
tee of the State Board Of Tra3s has been
called to the desirsoility OF securing pnoto-
graphs of raised topcgrapbicui nsap or
cast, The property of Professor 6eaiss- b.
wilson, OF the Coast Survey. This cast was
made for Professor Davidson by Isaae
Winston, sub.assistant of the Coast an:
Geode.lc Survey, and has for some tins
occupied conspicuous place in the Coast
Survey offices, Appraisers building It
shows very clearly the topography of
territory 200 miles square extending from
British Columbia TO Lower California, and
embracing the great Salt Lake and the
ocean bed for 900 miles of the coast. It is
made on scale horizontally of twenty
miles To the inch, with q vertical scale of
5000 feet to an inch. This vertical
scale exaggerates the nights thirty
three and q third times, bat this
effect was unavoidable in map of this
kind, for if the nights were less exagger-
ated the lesser attitudes would not be per-
ceptible. 1t includes all of California, Ne
vada, Oregon, Washington Territory and
portions of Montana Idaho, Utah, and
Arizona. 1t is made of plaster of paris, and
weighs about five hundred pounds. On
1t the peculiar mountainous formations of
make for California so genial cline are
clearly defined. The large interior basin of
the State, inclosed by the high ridges of the
Sierras, the lower SUBMITS of the Coast
Range, bounded by the Shasta and Siskiyou
mountains north, and Tehachapi south, is
plainly shown. This valley has only two
great openings from the ocean, at San Fran
cisco aud near Monterey. All passes and
canyons are clearly marked. The high
Sierra peaks-Whltney, Shasta and Rainier
are coiored with white, suggestive Of the
snow caps that crown them. Only two
places IN all this territory ere marked as
known to be below sea-leyel. They are
Death Valley, in Iuyo county, and
the Colorado Desert region in San
Diego county. The lines of valley and
mountains are not clearly shown in all
that large interior section embracing parts
of Idaho, Nevada and Utah, because the
contour of the country has not yet been
determined by authoritative SURVEYS.
Down off San Diego, about nine hundred
miles distant, an ocean mountain
peak rises to hight of IA 900 feet, and
yet its peak is 2 400 feet below the oceans
surface. Such is the depth of the ocean
there. 1t is shown that while the depth of
water from the Golden Gate to the
Farallones averages 200 feet, yet out about
thirty miles from the heads the ocean bot
tom is over 1900 feet from the surface.
Many other interesting peculiarities are
shown

the other IN front of the entrance to their
room, bearing the word, st Louis" in red
AMI white flowers on green background.
The st. Louis delegation met this morn
ing. and for an hour or so discussed the sit
uation, figured up the number of votes they
would get on the first ballot, and perfected
their arrangements. The st. Louis and
Chicago people both expect to lead on the
first ballot.
The Chicago people met again this morn
ing, discussed their plans and received re-
plies from the various delegates sent out to
feel the National Committee, and thew
said that their replies were very encourag-
ing to Chicago. 1t is probable that every
National Committeeman now in the CITY
has been canvassed from five minutes to as
many hours by representatives of these
cities.
ne San franclScanS, IN their coZV par
lor on the third floor, have many callers.
and are doing solid work in securing prom
ises of votes for their city, either on the
first or subsequent ballots I. F. Randolph
and Frank J. Sullivan have reinforced this
delegation.
The Cincinnati delegates are going on
still hunt for the Convention. They say
they do not expect to lead at the first, but
after the break from the two leaders on the
first ballot they intend to go in and win.
Though they do not talk much they feel
very confident of Cincinnati ultimately
winning the Convention.

WASHINGTON, February 21st.-The repre-
sentauves OF the various cities striving to
secure the National Democratic Convention
have been actively at work to-day, but in
the opinion of experienced politicians Chi
cago has accomplished the best results. ST.
Louis and San Francisco are holding their
own well, however, and it looks as if the
principal contestants would be close TO-
gether on the first ballot. Cincinnati and
New York seem to have practically dropped
out of the fight. The Californians claim
they are sure OF the Convention.

THE MORMON CURSE.
Necessary Change in the Constitution in
Order to Suppress PoIygamy.

Order to Suppress Polygamy.
WASHINGTON, February 21st.-In report
ing to the House the joint resolution pro-
posing constitutional am mendment defining
and prohibiting pclygamy, the House
Committee on Judiciary says the object is
10 clothe the General Government with
concurrent powers with the several States
to suppress the crime of polygamy in the
several States. Ii is believed, saws the
report, that within very brief period the
practice of polygamy in the Territories will
be eifectually suppressed, bnt it must be
evident to every one that in one or perhaps
more of the Territories the with travail of
the power of the Genera, tJavernInen. to
pun sh lggamy-w ntcaesaciIy would
foiiow the admission of Slich Territories
into the Union as States-would be the
signal for q return to the pactice OF polyg-
amy. The anti-MCrmon elemen' would be
pOWerless either to make or enforce the
laws against this offense Suc.i Territories
must either, therefore, be continued in
definitely under the expense of Territorial
Governments, or admitted into the Union
as States with the absolute certainty that
polygamy wilt be shielded from punish
ment by Statehood. This result, il is
believed, cannot be certainly prevented
except by an amendment to the Constitu-
ton of the United States such as is now
proposed.

SAN FRANCISCO February 2lst-[Special.
IS. G. Houghton, Master in Chancery, to-
day filed in the United States Circuit Court
his report in the matter of the reference of
the alleged contempt of the Omega Mining
and Ditch Company. The company was
one of the defendants in the well-known
hydraulic mining suit of Woodruff against
the North Bloomfield Gravel and Mining
Company, which resulted in Judge Sawyer
issuing an order restraining the defendants
from depositing mining debris in the Sac
ramento river and its tributaries. This
injunction has been repeatedly violated,
and several of the defendants punished for
contempt on the reports of the Master in
Chancery.
After hearing the evidence in the matter
of the alleged contempt of the Omega Min
ing and Ditch Company, an order to show
cause was issued on the 7th of February,
1887, and mass of testimony was taken.
The Master, in his report, says:
I'm the present case the prosecution has
failed to establish the offense charged. AL
though sufficient evidence of the perform
ance of mining operations of such charac-
ter as to constitute violation of the de-
cretal injunction herein has been furnished,
the persons who are shown to have carried
on such operations are not proven to have
been acting for or under the authority of
the defendant, nor is it proven that the
operations referred to were conducted in
the mine of the defendant described in the
bill :"
