CHICAGO, December 23.-Guilty, with
penalty Of five years in States Prison
and the payment of one thousand dollars
fine, was the verdict returned tonight in
Judge Grinnell's court against James j.
West, ex.editor of the Chicago Times.
There was little delay in reaching the
verdict, only two ballots being taken.
The crime of which West was convicted
was the fraudulent over-issue of the stock
of the Times Company, to the extent of
1880 shares, or equivalent of over $685.
600 in money. When the verdict was an
nounced the defendant betrayed no great
emotion. His attorney, on the contrary,
seemed painfully affected, anG could
scarcely be heard when entering the
usual motion for another trial. Judge
Grinnell stated that he would dispose Of
the motion January End. West was re-
leased on his original bond of SIS, 1000,
until tomorrow morning, when the ques-
ton of new bond will be discussed.

1t is confidently expected in certain

A DISPATCH appears in our columns to-
day in which Mr.. Charles Francis Adams
says that his company only intend to
build two hundred miles of railway this
year, but the conservative President OF
the Union Pacific admits that one hun
dred and forty.fve miles of this total
will be built to Phoebe, which is of course
part of the extension of the Utah Central
to Los Angeles, that being the distance
between Milford and Phoebe. He asserts
that his company have been concerned
in no purchases on the Pacific Coast.
All statements of Mr.. Adams must be
taken with grain of salt. He has 6g-
ured as the great denier of all plans i'm
puted to the corporation of which he is
the head, some Of which were consum-
mated within short time after his
denials. A case in point occurred four
or five months ago, when Mr.. Adams
was down in Texas. Rumor then said
that he was there for the pur-
pose of securing control of the
Fort Worth road, but to this
assertion he entered a most en-
phatic negative. A short time ago, how.
ever, the project was carried out by the
Union Pacific, and the full details of the
transaction were given to the public. 1t
is sometimes expedient for the President
of a great railway system to be reticent
concerning the plans of his company,
and Mr.. Adams is noted for the skill and
ability with which he acquits himself of
this Office. Two years will unquestion-
ably se the Utah extension of the Union
Pacific in the Angelic City.

of the many proofs which have already
appeared in this journal that such is the
settled determination of this great COR
porstion. No enterprise now before the
American people will be more fruitful in
great and immediate developments than
this, and the great beauty of it is that
the road will pay from the start.

BROUGHT TO A CRISIS.
The American Revenue Gutter Seizes a
British Schooner. y
SERIOUS TROUBLE ANTICIPATED.
An Intimation that the American Prize
Crews WIN BE Overpowered and
Brought to Victoria.

VICTORIA, July 29.-The greatest ex-
element prevails among those interested
in the sealing industry. The British
schooner Triumph arrived from Behring
sea this afternoon with news Of the cap
ture by the American cutter OF the
British schooner Black Diamond in
Behring sea, The Triumph entered
Behring sea July IL; on the 18th it was
sighted by the revenue cutter Rush,
whose captain boarded and informed
Captain Mclean he had orders to seize
any schooners found taking seals in Beh-
ring sea. The Triumph, not having
taken any, was allowed to depart. The
commander Of the Rush informed Cap
tain.McLean that two days previous he
bad captured the Black Diamond. with
1870 skins. A prize crew was put aboard
her and she was sent to 0unalaska. The
Diamond is owned by GuItman & Frank,
of this city, and is valued at about $10,-
900, The Triumph considered it better
to leave for Victoria.
Sealers are fighting and trouble is an
ticipated. The cutter 'only has crew
enough to put two or three aboard the
seized schooners leaving the captain OF
the schooner in charge Tho schooners
will be immediately re-siezed and headed
for Victoria, American prize crew and
all. Here they will be handed over to
the naval authorities to deal with the
matter. Will have further particulars
tomorrow.
The Triumph has 800 skins. The
news of the capture has caused great ex-
element, and further news is anxiously
looked for. Some of the vessels have
tough crews aboard, and trouble is al
most certain.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 2S.-The new
chairman of the Transcontinental Asso-
cation yesterday telegraphed the gem
eral freight agent of the Union Pacific,
in this city that a special rate on east
bound carload shipments of wheat is to
be made similar to the rate on barley.
This means 60 cents per 100 pounds to
the Missouri river, 621a cents to st.
Louis, 65 cents to Chicago, and 691a
to Cincinnati. 1t is the first low rate
ever made on California wheat to east
ern points, and has been brought about,
it is said, at the special request Of east
ern millers. They have recognized the
excellent quality of Pacific coost wheat,
but the freight rates haye operated
against their milling it to advantage.
The talk on the street now is that the
Southern Pacific will accept no compro-
mise on the Canadian competition ques-
tion, and as a natural sequence rate
war is fruitful topic of discussion.

No More Revenue Collectors.

A Portland man has received letter
from Washington which throws some
light on what President Harrison will
say in his message to congress on
the question Of taxes. The writer, who
is an Indiana congressman, called at the
White House to urge the appointment
OF friend to be a collector of internal
revenue.
II would gladly appoint your friend,
said the President, "but he would not
hold the place very long"
"Why not?" asked the congressman.
"There will be no internal revenue
collectors after few months. Their
duties will be so lessened that it will b'
no longer necessary to maintain the
office. Hereafter, the United States
marshals will do all the collecting there
is to be done"
The letter concludes as follows;
"From the compensation with the Presi-
dent inferred that he will recommend
the removal OF the internal revenue tax
on whisky and tobacco, the collection OF
which is the principal duty of revenue
collectors. Both branches of congress
being Republican, the Presidents re-
commentator will be speedily acted
upon"

The Smallest Republic.

This is not San Marino, mol Andorra,
nor Moresnet, but the tiny republic of
Goust, in the Pyrenees, which contains
less than one hundred inhabitants, all
of whom are romanists.
The sole occupation of these people is
the weaving of wool and silk. Their
government consists of an assembly OF
old men, called the council. They pay
no taxes or imposts of any kind, and
therefore have need of no collectors.
They have neither mayor, priest nor
physician. They baptize their children,
bury their dead and perform their mar
riage ceremonies all beyond the boun-
daries of the town, or in the neighbor-
ing villageIof Laruns. If any one wishes
to spouse wife he must go away from
home to find her.
Among the peaceful residents of this
microscopic republic are several centen-
arians. No one is really poor, and none
is rich. The language which they speak
is mixture OF French and Spanish, and
their numbers, manners and customs
have remained unchanged for several
centuries.

per pound, instead of 30 or 60 cents,
according to classification, as heretofore
This will make English wool cheaper
than American, and raises fears that
the local wool industry will be ruined.

mission has been advised of reports of
the discovery of cod bank on the Pa

river. The same advices state that true
cod haYe never before been found south

THE FISH COMMISSION.
SAN Francisco, July 26. - United
States Fish Commissioner Mcdonald
and Assistant Commissioner 0'Connor
arrived today from the east on a tour of
the various coast fisheries. 1t is the
first time the commission has eyer been
west OI DeuNeT.
The commissioner says he proposes to
restock the Columbia river again, and
the Sacramento river, California, with
salmon, so that in five years the catch
win be as great as formerly.
The commissioner and assistant leave
for the Baird station Tuesday next.
They will there make some improve
ments. for which congress has appropri-
ated $4,000, and will then proceed to
Oregon and Washington.
Commissioner Mcdonald, in an inter-
view this evening, says: ut is my firm
belief that the supply of salmon can be
increased again, so that in five years
there will be just as many and the catch
will be just as great as formerly. The
conditions must, however, be as favor
able as they once were. What we want
now is the complete cooperation OF the
states through their fish commissions,
as far as possible, to keep the rivers pure
and stock them with more fry. That is
all that is necessary. Once it was
thought that the salmon supply OF the
Columbia and Sacramento would never
give out. Now Pacific coast people are
getting vast annual pack from Alaska
and are saving the same thing of fish |
there. Probably they are nearly right
about that, but at any rate we want to
stock up, not only these two great rivers
but the Clackamas, Santiam, Pitt, and
other rivers. The distinct work now is
to extend the artificial production of
salmon. We have one station now on
the McCloud river and another on the
Claekamas that together last year pro-
duced about 100000 salmon eggs,
The idea now is to enlarge these hatch
cries so as to get greater supply. Sal
mon is to you what shad is to the East.
The shad supply there ran low in 1880.
and the commission began stocking
streams with eggs. In 1883 the catch
was increased over that Of the year 1880
by $3.50, 900 worth of shad This shows
what can be done. One thing | would
like to emphasize, the value and perma-
nence of the results Of fish culture will
depend essentially on the regulation and
protection OF the fisheries by state laws.
If the fish are not permitted to return to
their spawning grounds, or il the condi-
lions are unfayorable for spawning. the
work will be retarded"
