CHINESE HYDRAULICKERs.
The Conflict of Authority Between Yuba
and Nevada Courts.

and Nevada Courts.
fCopwigh, 1885, by the California Associated Pressl
MARYsvILLE, April 9th.-A conflict of
authority has arisen between the Superior
Court of Nevada county and Sheriff Inflow
of this county over the arrest of Chinese
hydraulickers captured at Scotts Flat, Ne
vada county, last week. g. H. Sterns, one
of the anti debris agents who made the
arrests, was served with a writ from Judge
Walling requiring him to produce All
Fong, one of the captured Cinnamon, in
the Superior Court of Nevada county on
Saturday, last
Previous to the service of the writ the
Chinaman had been delivered by another
party into the custody of the Sheriff of
Yuba county at the Jail here, who declined
to surrender him to Sterns upon the writ.
Sterns appeared before Judge Wslling on
Saturday with an attorney, and was re-
quired to produce the Chinaman to-day or
be held for contempt. Sheriff Inflow, act
ing under legal advice, still declines to sur.
render the prisoner.
Leading counsel of the Anti-Debris AS
sociation are being consulted and the
matter will probably be taken Immediately
to the Supreme Court. Thsre appears to
be no occasion for interference by the Ne
vada county Court in this case, as the
S"P "HiAS III Tue aCt ol ny
draulicking had been previously served
with notice to desist from their illegal
work, and were perfectly well aware of the
law. They tried to escape arrest-some by
fighting and others by running.
Nearly all the illicit hydraulic mining
still carried on is prosecuted by Chinese,
and they put the people in this part of the
State to much expense and trouble in keep
ing up costly detective organization.
The people of Marysville are indignant
that the mountain Courts interfere with the
plain course of justice by protecting these
criminals.

An Explanation.

What is this nervous trouble" with
which so many seem now to BE- afff cted
If you will remember, a few years ago the
word malaria" was comparatively un-
known to day it is as common as any
word in the English language; yet this
word covers only the meaning of another
word used by our forefathers in times past.
So it is with nervous diseases, as they and
malaria are intended to cover what our
grandfathers called hiliousness. and all are
caused by troubles that arise from dis
eased condition of the liver, which, in per-
forming its functions, fin ling it cannot
dispose of the bile through the ordinary
channel, is compelled 10 pass il off through
the system, canslng nervous trouble ma
laria. bilious fever, etc. You who are suf-
fering can we'll appreciate a cure. We
recommend Green's August Flower. Its
cures are marvellous.

The Committee Concludes Its Work on
the Dependent Pension Bill.
WASHINGTON. April 9th.-Tbe House
Committee on Invalid Pensions this morn
ing took final action upon the Senate bill
known as the dependent pension bill. A
substitute was adopted for the second Sec
ton, which is the principal section of The
Dill. The substitute provides pension for
all persons who have served in the military
or naval service of the United States for
any period. and who have been honorabv
discharged. and who are now or NAV here
after be suffering from mental or physical
disability not the result of their own vici.
GUS habits, which totally disabled them for
the performance of manual labor-at the
rate per month of one cent for every DAYS
war service.
1t further provides the same pension for
all persons who are 62 years of age-or
who may hereafter become 62 years of age
for and during their natural iives
Section three was amended 80 as to pro-
vide that when the widew of any person
who had served in the war, and been hon
orably discharged, is in condition of de-
pendence, or is suffering from any disabil-
ity recognized by the general pension law,
or is 62 years of age, she shall be placed
upon the pension roll at rate per month
of one cent for every days war service of
her husband.
The fourth section was amended so as to
make the attorneys fees for claims filed
under the bill So, instead of $40. The ele-
ment of dependency placed in the Grand
Army bill by the Senate was eliminated so
that all soldiers are TO be pensioned for
their services equally, without regard to
their financial condition and according to
the per diem idea.
The amendments were adopted by q
strict party vote. the Republicans favoring
the provisions of the Senate bill, SO that
the amended bill may be regarded as eni-
bodying the Democratic policy in the mat
ter of pension legislation.

CONGRESSIONAL PROCEEDINGS.

WARRINGTON, April 9th-Morril gave
notice that he would on Wednesday next
address the Senate on the Presidents an
nual message, and Coke gave like notice
for Thursday. A number of bills were
then introduced and referred.
The bill to provide for the admission of
the State of Dakota into the Union and for
the organization Of the Territory of Lin
coin was taken up.
The substitute reported from the Com
mittee on Territories to the original bill
establishes the boundaries of the proposed
State and designates the remaining portions
of the present Territory as the Territory of
North Dakota mot Lincoln), with Bismarck
as the capital.
Teller reported back the House bill to
give validity to certain patents for inven-
tions that were irregularly issued, being
signed by Second Assistant Secretary of the
Interior Hawkins, instead of by the Secre-
tary himself. Passed.
Butler reported back the House bill to
ratify and confirm the Act of the New
Mexico Legislature creating the county of
San Juan. Passed, with an amendment
declaring Aztec the county seat
Among the bills introduced and referred
were the following:
BY Allison-For the establishment of
permanent Court of Arbitration between
the United States and Great Britain and
France.
By Chandler-For the completion of the
direct tax of 1861. This bill revives and
re-enacts those sections of the Act of 1851
imposing direct tax of $40, 900 900. and
provides for the collection of all the unpaid
balances, with five per cent. interest there
on. States are TO have the privilege of as.
suming their quota, less Is per cent deduc-
ton, otherwise the tax is to be collected
from the land of individuals, as provided
in the original Act.]
The bill to authorize the sale 10 aliens of
certain mineral lands was taken up for con-
sideration.
Faulkner spoke in opposition to 1t. He
regarded it as bill fraught with danger.
The Act of 1887, which the bill proposed
to nullify, was the first Act passed which
affected the holding of real estate The
bill would not only allow individuals TO
obtain mineral rights in this country, but
it would allow corporations formed in Eng
land, France or Germany to purchase any
number of patents to mining lands.
Stewart asked Faulkner whether there
was any law in West Virginia that pre-
vented aliens from having an interest in
mining property.
Faulkner" None that / know of
Stewart" Nor in any other State"
Faulkner moved an amendment proyid-
ing that where mining claims which have
been patented are acquired by partnership.
msJorlty of the partners or directors shall
be citizens of the United States.
Stewart said there seemed to be a total
misapprehension of the object of the bill.

THE DEAD JURIsr,
Proceedings in the Supreme Court Con-
oerninc the Late Chief Justica

WAsHINeToN, April 9th.-In the Supreme
Court to-day, Attorney General Garland
presented the resolutions recently adopted
by the bar and officers of the Court respect
ing late Chief Justice Waite, and spoke at
some length in eulcgy of the deceased.
Justice Miller, in receiving the resUlu-
tions, also paid an eloquent tribute to the
late Chief Justice, and said:
We fully appreciate the great loss
which the country, the bar and the officers
of the Court have sustained by this sad
event. The blow falls, however, with
more force upon the members of this
Court, who were associated with him in the
performance OF its functions, and had been
accustomed to the benefit of his learn
ing and of his ability in the discharge
of duties common to US all; for, not
only has he guided our pathway and
lightened our labors by his experience, his
skill and his practical tact, but with an
urbanity and kindliness of heart rarely, if
ever, excelled. He had won our affections
and attached US to himself, so that while we
sympathize in the public loss, each also
feels the sorrow of separation from a spe-
cial friend
Justice Miller then announced that the
Court would cease to hear arguments on
May 4th, and would adjourn for the term
on May 14th.

A BORDER RUFFIAN.
Savage Assault Upon Consul Mackey at
Paso Del Norte.

Savage Assault Upon Consul Mackey at
Paso Del Norte.
Copyright. 1883. by the California Associated Press 7
FL PAso, April Yesterday evening
shortly after dark, while United States
Consul Msckey, OF Paso Del Norte, was
sitting at his residence, rented from J. II.
Griffith the latter forced himself into the
residence and into the Consul's room, with
great deal of bluster and noise, and evi-
IDENTIFY in a state OF intoxication. Consul
Mackey's mother was in the room and be-
came terribly frightened, as it was evident
Griffith had come for a fight.
Mackey quietly stepped into an adjoining
room and placed pistol in his pocket and
then faced his assailaut Again the latter
commenced TRADE OF abuse, accusing
Mackey of talking about him, and finally
rushed on the Consul, who tried to ward
off his blows. Both went down and rolled
on the floor In this position Mackey tried
to draw his pistol from his pocket, under
the impression that Griffith was armed and
intended shooting him, but his hand was
held by mis- adversary until the noise at
tracted number of bystanders, who separ-
ated them.
After the Consul was released by the by
SANDERS Griffith still continued to abuse
him Mackey became excited by the screams
OF ms mother, and pulled his pistol again
and fired at Griffi hs, fortunately without
effect. Griffith escaped. Some Mexican
policemen ran up to the house, but seeing
it was the American Consul's, did not enter
The Chief of Police went up to the house,
and after hearing what had occurred or
dered police officer to stay around and
arrest Griffith as soon as caught but be did
not make his appearance. He went imme-
diately across the river to FL Paso. So did
his wife, who really was at the bottom of
the trouble, having tried to overreach the
Mackey family in rent and board.
Before leaving Mrs. Griffith went to the
Chief of Police and applied for warrant
against Consul Mackey. but was refused, on
the ground that be had done perfectly right
and would have been justified in killing
Griffith. Consul Mackey, unlike his pre-
decessor, Judge Bingham, of Cutting fame
is very popular with the Mexicans. All
regret the unprovoked assault made upon
him in their city.
