soldiers in that place have been allowed
to do AZ they please, and have even gone

supposed to have supernatural infiu-

TEMESCAL TIN.
A Report Which Democratic Editors
Should Read Carefully.

"A Report Which Democratic Editors
Should Read Carefully.
James Van Allen, formerly Professor of
AsssyiDg at Cornell University and at one
time editor Of the Scientific American, has
recently returned from visit of two DAYS
at the Temescal tin mines, near South Riy-
erside, and what he saw appears to have
been q revelation TO him. He had heard so
much about these mines and was so skepti-
cal OF their genuineueSs that he concluded
to visit and INSPECT them. The result is
best expressed in his own words: 81 shall
&c, back East proclaiming the Temescal tin
mines the richest of the kind / have eve.
known, and l have spent a month in the
Cornwall mines"
He is confident that there is great wealth
in the Temescal mines and ventures the
opinion that in three years more the output
will reach an annual value of 81, 900. 900
What he actually saw Is thus described by
him: II found about 1853 American labor
ers In and about the mines, and seven Cor
nlshmeD. The mines are being worked for
all they are worth, considering how expert
mental and new all the development of the
property has been. The company has ex-
pended $4,000 on the mines and mills so
far, aud Is now crushing seyenty-iye tons
of ore daily This will be increased 20
120 tons before December. While / was
ut the mines over $4,000 worth of
new stamps ana concentrators arrived from
London, and as much Ciore is on its way to
Temescal. The company has calls from all
parts of the country for block tin and is
producing about $1,000 worth every day.
When the new concentrator is put in place
next week the daily product Will be S170O.
Tho officers at the mines are all fine miners
and are opening up the property to the best
advantage. L was astonisbed to find how
rich some Temescal ore Is. 1t runs 16 per

ELECTRIC POLES.
Supervisors Cannot Prevent Their
Erection.

A special meeting of the Board of Super
visors was held yesterday forenoon, all men,
bers present except Ebert and Heyer.
Mayor Sandersou said that lie had called
the board together for the purpose of direct
ing attention TO the action of the North
Beach and Mission Railway Company in
putting up electric-wire poles on Folsom
street. He announced that when inter-
fered with the company sued out an injunc-
tion restraining him, the Chief of Police
and the Supervisors from Interfering with
its operations. The Mayor thought that the
board should take some immediate action.
After various members had questioned
City and County Attorney burst, the fol-
lowing resolution was introduced by Mr..
Burling:
RESOLVED That the City and County Attorney
be and is hereby instructed TO take legal stcss to
stop the erection of poles on Folsom street and
along the line of the road of the North Beach
and Mission Railroad Company, so far 40 such
action may be taken without conflicting with the
order OF the court enioining the beard from ac-
ton In said natter; also. TO procure an imme-
diaIe hearing for q dissolution OF the INDUCTION
issued on the suit W the North Beach ana Mis-
sion Railroad Company, now pending la Depart
ment 4.
Mr.. Taber objected to this He thought
the only safe way TO instruct the attorney
TO go into court and do the best he could 10
have the injunction dissolved.
Mr.. Burling said he was tired of having
injunctons served on him. 1t seems that
whenever any person does not want this
board to act, he sues out an injunction. This
was done in the Health Board case, but it
was mere trick to help the Governors
appoiutees into Office. He thought the North
Beach company should be given some of its
own medicine.
n Mr.. Curtis declared that he would not
take the chances OF committing a contempt
OF court. and on roll-call the resolution was
defeated:
Ayes = Burling and Jackson. Noes - Aver,
Wilkinson.
The City and County Attorney was d.
rected verbally to attend to the matter and
the board adjourned.

STREETS AND SEWERS,
More Time for the Sixteenth.
Street Extension,

At meeting of the Street Committee of
the Board of Supervisors yesterday it was
agreed to report in favor of accepting Ellis
street. between Devisadero and Scott.
There was discussion relative to grant
ing further time to the commission for ex-
teuding Nineteenth, Twentieth, Twenty
first, Twenty-second and Twenty-third
streets, it having asked for six months
time in addition to the original six months
allowed by law. Several property-owners
objected, on the ground that the work Of
the commission Is completed, but when it
was disclosed that the extension will date
from May, since which time the greater
portion of the work has been done, the
committee concluded to grant the extension.
Frank Nj. Pixley, representing the block
on the south SIDE of Union street, between
Steiner and Fillmore, presented protest
against artificial stone sidewalks on that
block. He said he proposed to put down
sidewalks, but he wanted six months
time. He is spending $4,000 on his house
and will build $4,000 fence. IL given
time he said he would see that all the prop
erty-owners on the block joined in building
good sidewalk. The extension of time
was granted.
Street Superintendent Gileran again
brought up the question of granting private
contracts, and the committee decided that
while 1t was desirable that street work should
DO UNIFORM ana parts Oh blocks should not DB
left unpayed. it Is the general opinion that
the street law recognizes private contracts
and that they cannot be abolished. 1t was
finally agreed that the Superintendent of
Streets should issue permits in all cases
where tine contractor has three-fOurths of
the front feet signed, and where he makes
affidavit that the signatures are genuine.
But in all cases where the work has been
advertised the power to stop it and let it 90
to private contract shall be exercised by the
Street Committee. This, it is thought, will
stop the contractors from bulldozing prop
erty-owners into signing private contracts
by threatening them with the action of the
board.
Surveyor Titon was directed to make a
survey of the grades south of the park with
view to establishing a sewerage system
which will drain the Almshouse district.
William Greer Harrison, President of the
Olympic Club, appeared before the COM
mittee in support OF the application of the
club for a franchise to lay pipes for salt
water bathing plant in the new clubhouse
on Post street. In response to question
he stated that the plant would cost about
100000 and is entirely a club affair. 1t
WAS proposed to sell some of the water
along the route for bathing and steam pur-
poses to reduce expenses, but it is not ex-
pected to make any money out of it. Mr..
Harrison said the club is willing to grant
the city the right to use the plant for flush
ing and fire purposes. The club would give
a bond to restore the streets through which
the pipes will run.
The committee laid the matter over for
further consideration.

BROKEN ON THE WHEEL.
Little Boys Body whirled Round and
Round TIL Crushed to a Jolly.

houhu iii STusneu To a jelly.
Six-year- old Thomas McGrath of 151 Clas-
son avenue, Brooklyn. n. Y, died in the
Homeopathic Hospital recently from in
juries received in a peculiar accident
Thomas, with party Of companions, had
built a fire and were having lots of fun when
a wagon loaded with wood, and driven by
Henry COrdes, came along the street. The
fire nesded more fuel, and Thomas. to get
some, attempted to climb into the wagon.
The boy placed one foot on the taibnard
and made spring. His foot slipped and in
an instant was caught in the spokes of the
revolving wheel. Soon his little body began
whiriing around, to the horror OF his COM
panioEs, who looked on speeches.. Round
and round went the boys body, until at last
some one shouted to tie driver, who seemed
ignorant OF what was happening. The
wagon stopped and several men sprang Tor
ward and tried to extrcato the boy from the
wheel. The little fellow was unconscious.
So tightly was his body wedged in the
spokeS that the wheel had to be removed
from the axle before the boy could be taken
out. His abdomen was terribly crushed and
his hips were dislocated. He fingered sew
eral hours and then died
