Surveyor General Reicherrs Outfit for the
Mouutafns

Says the ExdDainer of yesterday: The
honorable. genial and somewhat indie
tatigable Theodore Reichsrt. StateSurveyor-
General, came down from Sacramento yes
terday and put two quarter sections of
signature upon the register of the Baldwin.
Mr.. Reichert is here TO secure proper sup
ply OF instruments and camp outfit for 3
soJourn OF some weeks in the wilds of the
Sierras. There is something the matter
with the boundary line between California
and Nevada which needs adjusting. The
boundary has acquired recently sad case
OF zlgzag, and has got TO behaving IN such a
way as to call for the active interference of
the SuryeyorGeneral and his assistants.
General Reichert is anxious to have the
matter permanently fixed before he gives
up the State Surveyor Generalship to go
into the office now held by General Ham
mond. He yesterday spent some hours
among the makers of instruments, aud Sc
lected two fine split bamboo troglodytes, a

frylng-pan, book of flies and logarithms
and very large pair of gnm boots.
General Reichert says with this outfit
he intends to bring back the boundary line
to ITS normal bearings, if 1t takes all sum

until then. He will be accompanied by
Fish Commissioner Redding and several
other surveyors who are familiar with the

Unfair Competition.

Under this heading the San Francisco
Call has the following editorial:
Canadian papers are inclined 10 The opin-
ion that the necessities of New England
trade will prevent any legislation to pre-
vent the shipping of merchandise intended
tor American consumption through Can
ada: A Vancouver paper says The his
tory of the fight prolonged through many
sessions of Congress, which resulted III the
appointment of the Interstate Commerce
Commission, the establishment of the
principle that all shippers must be placed
on an equal footing, and distance be made
the basis of the regulations of railway tolls,
shows, however, that even American rail
way interests, gigantic as they are, are not
powerful enough to overcomea popular de-
mand, and so far-reaching would be the
results of the proposed measure to prevent
the free entrance of Canadian cars into the
United States that it seems scarcely prob
able that it will ever be carried into effectn
The transportation question is as much
broader than New England as the United
States is broader than one corner of it. Ii is
vastly important for the whole country
that the American transcontinental rail
roads shall have fair show with their
Canadian competitors. The popular feel
ing that resulted in the appointment of the
Interstate Commerce Commissioners was
not directed against the roads themselves
but certain abuses in the management of
them. The American people did not want
to drive the several companies from bust
ness, but to require them to do business
| on what they, the people, considered an
equitable principle. When the interstate
bill was passed it was not apprehended that
| it would materially aid the Canadian Pacific
in competing for American traffic Rail-
| road men may have foreseen its effects, but
the public certainly did not 1t is even
probable that the American roads would
| have been able to contend against the Cana
dian roads under this disadvantage, if the
Canadian roads had been compelled to rely
upon their own resources. But with a sub
sidy TO fall back upon, and the freedom they
enjoy from the fetters of the long and short
haul clause in the Interstate Commerce
Act, the Canadian roads are taking busi-
| ness which the American roads would take
| if both worked under the same conditions.
New England is doubtless especially inter-
ested in maintaining the present law which
| permits Canadian cars 70 enter the United
States and American cars TO ass through
| Canadian territory and return to their own
country, but the interests of one group of
States will not permanently stand in the
way of legislation to relieve the American
trarfscontineDtal roads from the unfair
competition they now have to contend
against.

Unparalleled Brutality of the Attendants
of an Insane Asylum.

CHICAGO, May 2Uth.-The most horrible reye-
lation yet made in the investigation of the Chi
cago Public Insane Asylum was that reached
Today IN the testimony OF George Hill, loco
motive engineer now employed on the Lake
Shore and Michigan Southern Railway
He was admitted TO the institution in January,
1888, suffering from slight mental derange-
ment, and was discharged as cured in Nav
When he went to the asylum an attendant
named Lott asked him if he was insane Hill
said he was not. 'Well,n replied Lott "we
will make you id sight insaner than you are
now."
Another attendant named Julian ordered Hill
to sweep out the room. and on his saying he had
not come there for that purpose, knocked him
aown ana kicked him in the body and mouth,
knocking two of his teeth out. Hill tried to
cover his face by getting his head beneath a
bench when Julian turned the bench over

him If he dared to speak he would kill
him right there. One day Hill had
an opportunity of conversing with Supervisor
Jones, and told him he was badly treated. Af-

him in the head and breast. On getting up,

ESPECIAL DISPATCHES TO THE nroORD-usIos.l
IMPORTANT DECISION.
1t May Affect the Status of Ioo, 900 Land
Cases.

WASHINGTON, May a0th.--The opinion of the
United States Supreme Court in the case of the
United States VS.. John d. Hall, was to day the
subject of much earnest discussion among the
the officials OF the General Land Office. one of
the points at issue was that Hall had made oath
before Notary Public. and the Supreme Court
had decided that where an oath is REQUIRED by
the United States statutes that said oath can be
administered only by an officer of the United
States. Hence, Notary Public, being a State
officer, cannot administer oaths to United States
officials, except where the statutes specifically
state that oath may be made before such State
official. This opinion, it is believed seriously
affects the status of more than 100000 cases in
the mineral division alone of the General Land
Office.
Deputy Mineral Surveyors have for several
years, 1t is said sworn to the correctness of their
statements before Notaries Public During the
last four years large number o, cases under
the general land laws has been received for
patent at the General Land Office where the
final proof was not made before an officer desig-
mated by law for that purpose. Where no other
error was found they had been allowed to go TO
patent. This policy was first adopted by Seere-
tary Villas The opinion of the Supreme Court
has created alarm, and a request for an inter
probation of Section 1885 of the Revised Statutes
has been sent TO Assistant Attorney General
Shields, with particular reference to the Su.
preme Court decision and its effect upon pend
ing cases in the General Land Office.

General Drums Successor Still a Mat
ter of Doubt.

WASHINGTON, May 20th.-Adjutant-Genera
Drumm will be retired next week and the con-
test over the election of his successor is being
carried on briskly. The chief contest lies be
tween Colonel's Kelton and Whipple. The first
named has been located here for some years
and for the past few months has been Acting
Adjutant General, General Drum being in iii
health.
Kelton, although younger than Whipple,
outranks him. having graduated in preceding
class He has also seea more active service
and is in every respect qualified for the place
The plea being made for Whipple is put on
purely sentimental grounds. He win be retired
next year, while Kelton will not be eligible for
retirement before 1892. The President IS there
fore, being urged TO appoint Whipple so that he
can be retired as Adiutant-G General and claim
ing that it will delay Colonel Kelton but one
year longer. General Keiton is a great favorte.
however, and the chances seem to be largely ia
his favor. The retirement of Drum will cause
the promotion of Iieutenant-Colonel Rugsles 10

BEHRrNG SEA.
Uncle Sam VIII send the Thetis There
Imme diateiy.

WASHINGTON, May 20th.-Inquiries at the De-
partme MT of State, based upon the report from
Ottawa that British war vessel IS to be sent to
sealers, elicits the fact that nothing has been
done by this Government in the matter since
the issue of the Presidents proclamation, which
distinctly notified all nations of the intention OF
the United States to protect seal and fish life
from depreciation. 1t is presumed that the
Treasury Department, through the revenue ma.
rine service will carry out the provisions of the
statutes enacted TO that end. At present the
only Government vessels in the Alaskan waters
are revenue cutters, but they will soon be rein
forced by the man -ofwar Thetis, whice is now
at San Francisco, preparing for her summer
