DENVER, March 17.-lSpecial. IA sensa-
ton was caused tonight when it was an
nounced that the Maxwell land grant, con-
tanning Loo, 900 acres, had been sold. The
price Is not mentioned. but it is known
that the commission of the agent who sold
it amounted to $4,000. It is the largest
deal ever recorded in the West.
The agent who made the deal has been
in New York for the past three months,
where he has been negotiating, but he will
say very little about the matter. The
Maxwell land grant is one of the most fa-
nous tracts of land in the West, and
there has been more litigation over it
probably than any other piece of land.
Many men have been killed in attempting
to obtain possession of it and for trespass-
ing upon it. This fact is well known to the
syndicate who propose to purchase it, and
an option was finally placed, though what
the amount was cannot be ascertained
Some idea of the deal may be gained
when it is stated that the company is
stocked for SIC, OOO, 900. The final payment
is not to be made for about three months,
when the company will take possession Of
lands. Exclusive of its stock it is claimed
that there are rich mineral lands in the
tract. If that is true the syndicate is get
ting bargain.

San Francisco. March l7.-This morn
ing the steamer Australia arrived in por.
from Honolulu, but it was after O'Clock
before the vessel came alongside the dock.
The delay was due to the fact that q rob-
berry had been committed on board on the
first day out from Honolulu, by which J.
Samagoa, cx-president Of Guatemala, lost
jewelry valued at 81. 500 and $500 in gold
coin. On reaching Meggs' wharf word
was sent to the police station, and two de-
tectiyes at once boarded the vessel, while
two others were sent to the place at which
the steamer would dock. The facts con.
nccted with the robbery, as near as can be
learned, are that the jewelry had been
placed in a satchel and left in the state
room of Mr.. Samsgo. The thieves evil
IDENTIFY knew that there was prize in the
satchei and worked quickly during the
owners absence. Both sides of the satchel
were cnt open and the contents distracted.
Throughout the voyage efforts were made
10 locate the thief and secure the property,
but it was not successful, and no clue was
obtained today.

Ballard Council Acts Favorably-Water
From Green Lake.
The town council of Ballard last evening
considered the subject of granting fran
chise Of thirty feet on Shilshole avenue to
the Seattle. Lake Shore Il Eastern railroad.
Mr.. Old and Judge Thomas Burke made
eloquent speeches in the interest Of the Sc
attic, Lake Shore g. Eastern, and Mr.. Dow
replied on behalf of the town of Ballard.
He thought the railroad company ought to
buy fifteen feet on the north and easterly
side of Shilshole avenue and dedicate it for
public street, and then the town could
afford to grant thirty feet on Shilshole av-
enue to the railroad.
The subject was referred to the commit
tee of the whole, who retired to the clerks
Office to consider the matter privately and
afterwards returned and reported that it
would be necessary to wait five days before
final action, but recommended that the
thirty feet be granted, subject to such con-
ditions as may be decided later. The
council then voted to grant thirty feet.
subject to proper conditions, and will con-
slider the matter again next Monday.
In passing upon the bill of J. A. Witcher
expert accountant, it came out that it had
already been paid by the sole authority of
]. j. Holland. Mr.. Dow said it was ex-
tremely reprehensible, and opened the
door for fraud to pay bills before the coun-
Gil allowed them and was contrary to the
law, which stated the mayor and clerk
should sign all warrants upon the treasury.
He thought such business methods were
decidedly ccnsurable and deserving rep
rimand. The mayor sustained Mr.. Dow's
suggestions.
Bids for printing were read from the Bal
lard Express and the Reporter. The con-
tract was awarded to the Express. The
Reporters bid was not delivered within the
advertised time.
The fire and water committee delivered
a lengthy report, which recommended
supply from the reservoir at Woodlawn
Park to connect the present system of Bal
lard avenue, and gave the opinion that
water from Green lake was as suitable as
Lake Washington water. The report was
adopted, Messrs. Dow and Hopkins dis

On entering the bay the Utopia, before

British ironclad Arson. The Utopia sank
within few minutes. Boats were i'm
mediately lowered from the British iron
clad and from the Swedish man-of-war

A meeting of citizens interested in the
eastern part of the city, and more particu-
larly the section lying south of Yesler
avenue, washeld at Rainier hall, corner of
Jackson and Alton streets, last night to
consider the question of the granting of a
franchise to the Rainier Electric Railway
Company, which is now before the council.
The electric railway was represented
by three attorneys, and the position of the
Seattle City Railway Company, which has
applied to the council for permission to
bid for the franchise, was stated by its
representative. After several speeches, q
resolution, prepared by representatives of
the electric road, advising the council to
grant the franchise to it, was passed by a
rising vote, and T. r. Fleming. DR.. Al
bin and o. c. Whitney were appointed a
committee to present the resolution to the

rhs Nsbraska Eisstis. Contest.

LrscoLs, Eeb., March 1.-THE decision
in the Boyd-Thayer gubernatorial contest
has been indefinitely postponed. It il
claimed that two Of the justices favor
Boyd, while the third favors Thayer.
It is asserted that the scheme to remove
one Of the two judges favoring Boyd by
giving him . federal position has been
unearthed.
Two briefs were filed today By the attor-
neys Of Governor Boyd in the quo war
ranto case. The first cites sections Of the
national and state constitutions in which
provisions were made for admitting
Nebraska into the Union on equal footing
with the original states. It asserts that
citizenship, therefore, is inherent upon the
inhabitant upon formation Of the govern
ment. History as precedent is quoted in
substantiation of this. The words, 1--WE,
the people Of Nebraska, !" in the state con-
stitution, is held to refer to the inhab-
itants of Nebraska at the time the consti-
tuition was adopted.
The second brief alleges the lieutenant
governor Is the proper person to bring
suit, as Thayer failed to qualify within
ten days from the time Boyd qualified.
The decision will probably not be reached
for two weeks

basis . those On the Kansas and Nebraska
divisions. The COMMITTEES claims that
living wages cannot be made under the

sion reached. Mr.. Thurston stated that
he had explained to Mr.. Korty that while
some Of the operators who had been at
tempting to create trouble were no doubt
members Of his order, that fact had
nothing to do with their action, and that
their desire to stir up trouble will result
in their expulsion from the order. The
order would not countenance anything in

had been issued by them directing men to
withdraw from the order or be discharged.

at ST. John, \. F.,4 says OF the existing
difficulties: at is known that England
has arrived at no agreement with France
for settlement of our difficulties, but in
stead has consented to arbitrate the oues-
