. THE RED PLANET MARS.

Prof. Holden Says There Is Nothing
New to be Said About 1t.
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 2.-Prof. Z. S.
Holden sends the following to the Asso-
ciated Press:
LICK OBSERVATORY, Mt. Hamilton,l
August 2, 1892.
There is absolutely nothing to be said
about our Mars observations, from night
to night, or about our observations of
the whole year until the work has been
gone over with care and map made of
our results, which will take until Octo-
ber next at least. II there is anything
to say, will telegraph you, of course.
All, or nearly all, of the present excite
ment over Mars is merely exaggeration
and sham excitement. as utterly useless
to the people in general, as it is harm
full to true science. Exaggerated
and ignorant expectations will not be
realized, such as relate to communities
ton with the inhabitants of a planet
which we are not absolutely certain is
fit to be inhabited, let alone being ac-
tually populated, for example, and the
general public will be eventually disap-
pointed, and science will be blamed if it
encourages hopes which competent per-
sons know cannot at present be realized.
Therefore, it is my judgment to tell you
frankly what l have, and not to lend
the great name of the Lick observatory
for a mere sensation. When any one
asks us specific questions about Mars,
we reply that we are not responsible for
what is written and printed unless we
sign it. (Signed)
EDWARD S. HOLDEN.

cGUR D,ALENE RIOTERS.

Outline of the Defense in the Contempt
Cases.
BOISE, Idaho, Aug. 2.-In the con-
tempt cases against the Ceur d'Alene
rioters, the defense today filed general
demurrer and plea in abatement,
which was taken under advisement by
United States District Judge Beatty.
The plea in abatement alleges that six
of the defendants are not citizens
of the United States; that
two are citizens of the state
of Washington, and one of the
state of Montana. The plea further
alleges that the Coeur d'Alene Miners
union has never. been incorporated in
the state OF Idaho. 1t is. therefore,
claimed that the action out of which
the proceedings grew is not an action
between citizens of different states,
such as the federal court can exercise
jurisdiction over.
