RosIyn News.

RosLyN, Dec. 23.-LSpecial. by the end
of this week it is probable that relief will
be granted to all points affected by the
shortage in the coal supply. The increased
output of the mines, coupled with a tenn
porary decrease in railroad consumption,
will allow of large shipment to CONNER
cial parties. Coal from Roslyn is shipped
as far east Us Helena and west TO Port
land, and it will be seen that a shortage
affects large stretch of territory. The
coal company have a drill at work night
and day on their different coal claims, and
are meeting with unvarying success.
1t is reasonably certain that this city will
in a very short time be illuminated by
electric lights. The Northern Pacinc Coal
Company will put in plant for lighting
up the different departments at the mines,
and have signihed their willingness to
make the plant of sufficient capacity for
the lighting of the city. The incandescent
system viii probably be adopted. and
nearly 100 lights of this kind have been
subscribed for. There is nothing the city
needs more than a system of lighting, as
the streets are and have been without illu-
mination of any kind
Work has commenced on the new school
building. The structure will he of brick,

RIGHTS OF AMERICAN TUGS.
Captain Stetson Protests Against the
Treasury Departments Ruling.

PoRr TOWNSEND, Dec. 23.-Captain ]. I'll.
Stetson. one of the owners of the tugs Mo-
gul and Coils. recently fined by the Cana
dian government for towing vessels on the
Canadian side of the Straits of Fuca, was
seen by the observation-disclosures cores
pondent Yesterday and asked his opinion
of the decision of the treasury department
at Washington City sustaining the ruling
of Canada. 1T Is one of the things I can
not account for" he said. For years we
have been doing just what the tug Mogul
was fined for. and nothing was done to
indicate that il was against the law of
Canada. But suddenly we are called on 10
paw hne of $500 without any warning
whatever. The fine was paid under pro-
test. and the matter was referred TO the
American minister at Ottawa. From him
it went to the treasury department at
Washington City, and the result is decis-
ion that is a big surprise TO the tug owners,
10 saw the least because there is no law to
sustain il.
ION what do you base your assertion
that the decision is not according 10 Law ~

DELEGATE CARROLL MUST WAIT.
He Will Not Present Alaska Credentials
Before January.

WASHINGTON CRY, Dec. Especial. l.
Senator Mitchell gave a lunch yesterday
at which were present, among others, Sem
ators Stanford, Dolph, Allen and Carey !;
John Mitchell, jr., of Tacoma, and Cap
tain James Carroll. The latter was recent
ly elected delegate TO congress from
Alaska. He is here to present his creden-
tails TO the House and ask for his admis-
sion as a delegate from that territory. He
has been Interviewing the members of the
house committee on territories
Among them are Chairman Strubie and
Springer and owing to the fact that there
IS not likely to be quorum in the House
during the holidays, and as Struble him
self will be absent from Che city, he will
not bring his case before the House until
after January /. But in the meantime he
intends to bring the subject of his admis-
sion TO the attention of individual men,
bers of congress.
Captain Carroll will earnestly advocate
the establishment of territorial form of
government for Alaska, and the many
reasons he will set forth why the territory
should be thus organized are liable to at
tract considerable attention. He is warm
friend of Speaker Reed. For the past
twenty-five years he has been captain of
steamer running from Puget sound to
Alaska and has carried among his passen-
gers many senators and representatives.
1t was in this way that he met Speaker
Reed when the latter visited the Pacific
coast two years ago.

Not Entitled TO Salvage.

SAN FRANcIsCo, Dec. 23.-In the suit of
John ID. Spreckels ct al, against the
steamer State of California and the Pacific
Coast Steamship Company, to recover saly-
age on the steamer, the United States dis
trict court today rendered judgment favor
able to defendants. In January last the
State of California broke her shaft while
off Bowen's Landing, and the steamship
company engaged the tug Vigilant to tow
her in. She went out, but did not find the
vessel, and the company then engaged the
ting Monarch of the Shipowners' and Mer-
chants Tugboat Company. After this
the Spreckels company sent out the tug Re
lief and she managed to find the State of
California. Spreckels sued for salvage on
that vessel, which they claimed was worth
100000. Judge Hoffman held that the
captain had a right to refuse tow if he so
desired, and ii was shown that the State
was actually in no danger when the Re-
lief took her Therefore the court held
that the Relief was only entitled to tow
ing rates, which would amount to about

those of her Britanic majesty shall be con-
tinued westward along said forty-ninth
parallel of north latitude to the middle of
Inc channel which separates the continent
from Vancouver island, and thence
southerly through the middle of said
channel and of Fuca strait to the Pacific
ocean; provided, however, that the nayiga-
tlon OF the whole of said channel and
strait south of the forty-ninth parallel of
north latitude shall remain free and open
to both parties
AS far as we have been informed, that
treaty Is still IN force, and we have always
proceeded with that idea. The last clause
IS as PLAIN to my mind as words can make
It, yet the ruling of the department at
Washington City grants every claim of the
Canadian government. Our case is not
yet ended, and we will try to get another
ruling. The secretary has removed every
chance of favorable settlement with the
Canadian government by giving his de-
clslon all the publicity possible.
There Is another phase to this question.
Now the Canadians claim that the imag-
mary line that runs along the center of the
straits OF Juan de Fuca in reality divides
Canadian and American soil. AT least they
claim that the water on the north side of
this line Is part of Canada. Hence they
say that an American vessel that once
crosses the line has, in the eyes of their
law, touched at Canadian port and can
go TO no other port on that side without
being subjected to a fine. Canadian tugs,
however, can come oveIon the American
side without the least fear of being mo-
Tested. / do not see how Assistant Secre-
tary Spaulding reconciles his ruling on this
matter with one he made short time ago
on the SUPPORT bill At that time he said
a foreign vessel could not only cross the
line, but she could be taken past every port
and clear up to the head of the Sound with
out even the formality of stopping at the
port OF entry to leave her papers. Now he
wheels around and makes ruling directly
the reverse of this i'll order to agree with
the Canadian authorities -

ANARCHIST JOURNALISM.

General Zeliverskoff, the anarchist Pad
lewski, to escape, was placed on trial to-
day, together with Mime. Duquerro, who
concealed Padlewski in her house after the
murder During the examination La
Bruyere said he considered he had done
something which would raise the status of
newspaper reporting. He confessed to
having received 5000 francs for expenses,
but although his expenses were only 535
francs he could not account for the re-
mainder. The procureur contended that
La Bruycre's sole motive was to advertise
himself and thereby earn money. Judg-
ment was deferred

THE CASE or sMUGGLER DIXON.
! Judge Hoffman's Decision Declaring

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 23.-Thc written
opinion of Judge Hoffman in the case of
George Dixon, indicted for smuggling by
Washington United States grand jury.
was filed in the Office of the clerk of the
United States district court yesterday.
Dixon was arrested in this city, but was
discharged by Judge Hoffman on De
cember >. the court holding that the in
dictment against him had been found hy
a body of men not known 10 or authorized
by law. Judge Hoffman holds that the in
tcntion of congress was to constitute only
one judicial district, and the first section
of the act provides that the State of
Washington shall constitute a judicial dis
trict,' The phrase district court for the
northern division of the state of Wash
ington," nowhere occurs in the act.
. The object of the section is apparent" says
the opinion. . II WIS merely To regulate the
times and places for the holding of the district
trial of civil cases, but in criminal prosecutions
the jury must be drawn from the whole district,
and not for any division of it. The limitation
of the power OF the grand jury Ia inquire only
into otcnses committed within the division Of
the district for which they are called would
seem wholly without authority, nor would IL De

Valuable Marble Deposits Near Reno.

SAN FRAScIsco, Dec. 23.-Information
has been received by the land department
Of the Southern Pacific Company that a
very valuable deposit of marble has been
discovered along the railroad few miles
from Reno, New 4 bluff was encountered
which shows a perpendicular frontage of
300 feet of marble, which is there $50 feet
wide. The ledge is traceable for several
miles. Ii runs through sections of gov
eminent land, as well as that of the rail
road. The marble is of three kinds, one
being pure white, another notified or
striped, and the third colored. The latter,
from superficial examination, seems
nossibiv ONYX. The quantity of the de-
posits seems practically inexhaustable,
while the quality is said to be very fine.
Not far from this ledge another has been
