sATURDAx. NOVEMBER g. 1853.

THAT there are wheels within wheels
is shown by the following extract from
the Ontario Record. Governor Water
man is now posing as superfine patroit,
and he is prepared to bounce legisla-
tive committee appointed by himself.
The Governor is credited with the idea
OF being partial to sites agreeable to
himself, and all these are supposed to
cluster around caflon stream which he
himself owns. If the Commissioners
had agreed upon the Governors own
site there would probably not have been
the scandals of which the public has
already been advised. The following
extract, from the Ontario Record, would
indicate that corruption runs rampant,
and that his excellency of accidental
memory is at least warranted in some Of
his recalcitrance. We quote from the
Record:
1t transpires that before adjourning last
week, the Commissioners decided to
accept an offer Of the Harlem springs
property-33S acres and the hotel-for
$3.50, 900. The Governor has signiied his
disapproval of this on the ground that the
price is too high, and what the next move
will be no one seems to know. For once
the Governor seems to be entirely correct,
for $475 an acre for raw land with boom
hotel, worth perhaps $4,000 thrown in,
will strike the average observer as big
cinch on the State. There is no sense ia
the States paying more for site than
private individuals could buy the same
land for. 1t would be putting the thing
very mildly when we say that this prop
erty would not bring 100000 if put on
the market today.
There are, however, other objections
to this site or any other in that locality
besides the price. Much of the land is
low and swampy, and it is an outrage to
choose it for home for the diseased in
body and mind. If the Asylum must be
located back of San Bernardino, let it be
put back near the mountains, high and
dry, not in the damp malarial basin be-
low. We would like to see it taken
away from the unseemly squsbble that
prevails over the sites in that section,
and located at Banning.
The Governor is reported as saying
that if he can get the Asylum located
north OF San Bernardino it will give him
1000 Democratic votes in San Bernar-
dino at the next ele ction. AS an ad-
mirer of the Governors many estimable
qualities, we wish to give him large
pointer thathe will never have occasion
to use those same 1000 Democratic votes.

VICTORIA, B. c., November 1.-The

COAST DE FENSE.
General Howard Thinks the Prob.
lem Is n Question of Range.

WASHINGTON, November 1.-The re-
port of General O. o. Howard, command
ing the Division OF the Atlantic, to the
Aojutant- General for the year ending
September 30th, calls attention to The
lack of armament Of nearly all the sea-
coast stations. "Our needs in this d.
rection," he says, "have been 80 often
and recently reported on by my prede-
cesscrs that deem it useless to more
than call attention to the subject again.
The time will undoubtedly come when
some positive action in the matter OF
permanent defenses is demanded"
In this connection the subject Of high
explosives is discussed. He calls atten-
ton to the invention of young Russian,
formerly botanist of the Point Barrow
expedition, which is the safest and best
explosive the General knows. With
such powerful agent the problem OF
coast defense is resolved almost to one oi
range, and the great seaboard cities can
be made comparatively safe without ex-
cessive expenditure.

COTTON OIL TRUST.
The stockholders Dissatisfied with
she Years. Rusfness.

the Year,s Business.
NEW YORK, October 1.-The annual
meeting of the American Cotton Oil
Trust was held today. The Presidents g
report shows that the profits for the year
| ended August 31st, were 81 $3.50, ,7S1. One
of the certi6cate-holders asked that the
report be printed for their benefit, but
Mr.. Flagler said that there was great OBJ
lection to it's being made public, as it
would put the figures into the possession
of business rivals, which could not be
permitted.
| E. H. Bonner, one of the certificate
holders, wanted to know why the trus-
tees had said in the last circular that the
profits of the year would be $4,000, 900.
Where had the missing million dollars
gone to?
Before Flsgler could explain, another
shareholder wanted to know if the state,
ment in the circular that the caah and
cash assets of the company were 81 ,000,-
900, was not also million too much.
Trustee Thomas than said the circular
was issued on reports from the various
properties, but since then the regular re-
ports had come in and loss of 800. :
900 by shrinkege OF values had beeu
made known. He said be found that the
men who had been officially onductipe
the trusts business had been buying a
good deal of oil from rival companies, land
had been obliged to sell out at lower
price. Another thing contributing to the
loss, was the poor quality of last years
cotton seed crop.
Thomas then spoke of plan Of merg-
ing the trust into q company, and said
by the plan proposed there would be q
reduction of the capital to $2l ZOO, 900,
| thus pumping out some of the water
Considerable murmuring was heard, but
finally motion was adopted for the ap
pointment of q committee to consider
plans and arrangements for merging tbs
trust into a company, to report at an.
other meeting.

sAN FRANCISCO, November 1.-Of the
whaling vessels lost in Bering sea and
the Arctic this season thus far the losses
to the New Bedford feet have been the
Lucretia, Big Ohio and possibly the
Alaska. The belief that the last-named d
vessel is lost is strengthened by the fact
that she was not with the feet when the
Alton, which arrived in this port today,
lett, and nothing has been heard of her.
The only loss thus far to the San Fran.
cisco feet has been the schooner Hamil-
ton; The Captain of the Alton reports
that the Orca and Thrasher have come
out from the eastward of Point Barrow.
the Captains having given up their inten-
ton OF wintering there and joined the

The feet went north of Wrangel Land

whales reaching higher point than
usual. Whalebone will from all reports
be high this year.

afternoon at the Casino in Golden

hours. Several months ago his wife
died, and since then he seems to have
