timed feverish and weak with no change
in its temper until toward the close, when
moderate rally was had which brought
few stocks up to and above the level OF
last nights final figures. The indisposi-
ton of brokers TO encourage buying upon
margin still keeps the market under the
control of the professional element, ana
that being bearishly inclined, prices con-

and there and marked dizziness in

and material decline in few of the leaders.
The stock market to-day was very weak in
the early trading, but the market was
narrow and remained feverish throughout
the day, the reports OF failures In so many

Capture Of The San Quentin Escapes After
an Exchange Of Shots.

SAN QUENTIN. Aug. 12.-The convicts
who escaped last evening-TurcOtt. Haulon
and Manning-after reaching gulch near
Laurel Grove, three miles distant, threw up
breastwork of limbs. stumps and soil
around clump OF trees in dense thicket
and secured commanding and impenetra-
BILE position. They stood a siege of about
eighteen hours, firing at their besiegers
every once in awhile, but not to kill.
Guard Bowen OF Mendoeino. who was ap-
preaching very close to their rendezvous,
had the stock Of his gun shattered by shot
from their rifle. and the bones of his right
forearm broken by the bullet rebounding
from the stock. After holding several nego-
tiations with the Sheriffs, being convinced
that no one was killed and probably
securing some concessions, they sur
rendered their Winchesters, which were
of the latest improved make, to Sheriffs
Standby of Mendocino and Healy of Marin.
They were then conducted to San Quentin
Prison. much to the relief of the guards
and officials, who have been on thirty
hours continuous duty. All the men are
worn out. II Is surmised that a cousin OF
Manning was the party who cached the
weapons in the prison grounds, and the
officers are after him. The jute-miIl did not
run last night, and will not start up until
tomorrow morning. Sergeant Carter re-
ceiyed severe cash in the chin from
limb while hunting the cOnvicts.
Guard Bowen's right forearm, which was
shattered by the rebounding of bullet
Tired by one Of the convicts, was amputated
to-day BY Drs. White of San Rafael and
Durant OF the prison. Bowen came from
Mendocino County and had served month
on guard duty. He prevented tine escape

Passage Of the Joint Resolution for Extending
Appropriations

Passage Of the Joint Resolution for Extending
appropriations.
WASHINGTON, Aug. Fin the House
this morning the Committee on Appropria-
lions reported joint resolution extending
until August 29th appropriations for the
support of the Government not provided
for in the general appropriation bills al
ready passed.
In speaking to this resolution, Rogers of
Arkansas criticized the ruling made by the
Speaker yesterday on the point of order
raised by him. The Speakers only reply
was: "Ihe attitude OF the Speaker toward
the gentleman from Arkansas has been con-
sistently that Of polite endurance of what
cannot be helped" Applause on the Re.
publican side.]
The joint resolution was passed. Before
the passage of the resolution Cannon ex-
planned that the appropriation items In the
Sundry Civil Bill had been agreed to. The
only matter upon which there was still dis
placed upon it by the Senate, which covered
the land and irrigation system in nearly
0ne-half Of the territory of the United
States. This legislation was of far-reach-
ing Importance, and did not belong to the
Appropriation Bill. This legislation had
delayed the passage Of the Sundry Civil Bill
aud rendered 1t necessary for further ex-
tension of appropriations.
On motion Of Cutche0n the Senate amend
ments were n0n-concurred in to the House
bill for the establishment of a national
park at the battlefield of Chickamauga,
and Conference Committee was appointed.
On motion made by Rogers the quorum
to disclose one. On motion of Dingley
resolution was adopted for the arrest Of the
absent members.

SALYATOR is CHAMPION.
The California Horse Again Defeats Pull
Sifer'S Tenny.

New YORK, Aug 12.-There will be no more
Salvator-Tenny matches. The question OF
supremacy is settled now and forever. The
most infatuated OF Tenny's admirers can say no
more alter to-day's race. Salvador and Tenny
were the only starters for the Champion stakes
at mile and a half, and they carried the same
weight-122 pounds each.
Pusifer and his trainer declared that Tenny
was in his best condition, and backed him freely.
Garrison said before starting that Tenny was
sure winner.
There was no lying back on Tenny's part this
time-nO waiting. He went out with Salvador
from the fall OF the flag aud ran with him STRIDE
for stride Tor the mile and quarter. but during
all this time Murphy was leaning BACK III Inc
saddle on Salvador Keeping the king of the turf
under gentle pull.
They came into the home stretch head and
head. 1eDny had the race from The start. He
had every advantage Of position. He was ridden
as well as Salvador was ridden. There can be
no excuse or apology OF any kind Tor him.
Murphy remained unruffled aud unmoved
up 10 the nnal furlong. Then lie
called on Salvador and the champion nmIE on
TO make Tenny look like common selling
platter. There was no contest. Tenny could not
keep the pace with him for single stride after
lengths In advance of Tenny.
The turf verdict is now made up. Salvador Is
probably he best horse just now in training In
the world. Beyond any question he Is the best
horse in America today In training.
Garrison was asked by well-known horse
owner II Tenny sulked In the race. Garrison re-
piled, mo, he did not sulk. he ran as well As he
could, but Salvador can beat him any time from

Mountains"

TEA-CULTURE.
Report of Minister DENLY on the Improve
ments Adopted in Formosa.

Report OF Mlnl5ter UenDY on tne Improve
ments Adopted in Formosa. .
WASHINGTON, Aug. 12.-Minister DENLY
Mt Picking, China, transmits to the State De-
partment the following report on model tea
culture in Formosa:
'In my dispatch of May 90 1889, l had the
honor to transmit to you he report of Sir
Robert Hart, Inspector General OF Customs
on the tea trade Of China. This report set
out number of valuable documents relat-
ing to the subject and embodied several
recommendations for the improvement Of
the trade, 1t does not appear that the Gov
eminent has ever taken any action toward
putting in force the suggestions thus made.
but Lui Ming Chuan, Governor General of
Formosa, has interested himself In the
question.
''One of the nspectOr-General's PROPOSE
tons was that model tea farms should be
established in order that the Indian meth
DDS of cultivation should be introduced into
China. Liu Ming Chuan has lately granted
to Frank Cass, a member of the American
firm of Russell & Co., permission to estab-
lish in FormOsa a tea plantation Of the In
dian model, to which a training school will
be attached for the education on Chinese
tea planters and factors. The Russells
have tue only machinery that is in use in
China for drying tea, as was explained in
my dispatch of July 20. 1888. Most Of the
FOrmosa teas go to the United States.
I'm common with the rest Of China, For
mosa has suffered by bad preparation and
adulteratiOn with broken leaves and tea
dust. The successful Introduction of bet
ter methods in Formosa will be initiated in
other parts of China.
MIR. Cass has engaged practical Indian
tea planter to Superintend the work. The
progress of the experiment will be watched
with interest by all persons interested IN
the tea trade, all of whom in China claim
that China teas are naturally superior in
flavor and aroma to their Indian rivals"
