AN OLD MINING ENGINEER.
Robert Wingate Gives His Ideas on
the Coal Business.

Robert Wingate. one of the pioneers Of
Tacoma, Wash, and before going there one
of the most prominent mining engineers of
San Francisco, is at the Lick House.
Years ago he went up TO the then Terri
tory of Washington on behalf of Charles
Croker aud his associates in the Central
Pacific Railway to find out the value of the
coal in that country.
The company had acqui red some coal
lands at Carbon Hill in the WIikeson field
and were anxious to know their value.
He opened up in all seven mines at that
place, several OF which are sill being
worked. and are turning out 1900 tons day
under tie SUPPLEMENTARY of D. T. Dayies
who is now at the Palace Hotel.
This coal forms the main part of The fuel
now being used on the Southern Pacific
system 10 California, and the output
amounts to an average OF about 10000 ions
month after IL has been washed and
ceansed OF all the Stag and slate
After lie had opened this mine he went to
Vancouver Island. where lie opened the
New Wellington mines for the Dunsmuirs.
and this mine has been success from the
start, as the quality Of the coal is superior
to that found on the mainland.
In conversation last night Mr. Wingafe
said that while reduction in the tariff
on some articles might be a good thing re-
duction In the present tariff of as cents n
ton on coal would simply close the Washing
ton mines, as the coal there could not Gem
pete with the British Columbia product on
even terms as ii would on account of It's bet
ter heat-producing qualities naturally bring
higher price. and ii was cleaner than the
Washington coal the cost of washing was
dispensed with.
Mr.. Wingate will remain here over Christ
mas and Will be joined I'm a few days by his
daughters, who are at school in Santa Bar
bara.

Different Courts.

Different courts.
1t was a busy day ia handball circles yes
terday. and devotees to the sport took adj
vantage of the fair weather TO crowd the
courts.
The rainy weather greatly interfered with
sport, and there has been little playing fer
the past few weeks. but owing to the con-
tinued fair weather last week the courts
were thoroughly dried and in good condition
yesterday.
At Ryan's Court an unusually large crowd
filed the grand stand and witnessed some
good sport.
Although many were disappointed by the
pOstpnnement of the French double which
was to have been played for purse at that
court during the afternoon. they were lib
eTal with their applause While the regular
games were in progress.
The event of the day was, as usual. a
triple handicap between John Jones, the
champion Of Australia, and Rogers and
Wren.
Among the preliminary games PLAYED was
well-contested single, between Toy and
Nelson, the former winning the game in
two straight RIBS by his superior tossing.

Jones, the kangaroo, opened and lost the
first rub with poor score, Rogers and
Wren playing rapid and effective serve

La the succeeding bouts they showed the
effect OF the rapid pace and looked tired.
Although Jones finally won the next three
rnbS the partners did some splendidltossing,
and as the score will show made ii an un-
usually close and exciting contest. The
score al the finish was, Jones losing the
first rub: 9-21. 21-1S, Pip, Pill.
At the close of the game Wren issued a
general challenge on behalf of Jones and
himself Offering 10 play any team on the
coast for purse.
Rogers, 1.-THE Frenehman." announced
that he viii accept the challenge on behalf
Of John Riordan. the Pacific Coast cham

Tie Antique Ranger Will Protect
American Interests.

The United States steamer Ranger now
ut Mare Island, where she spends most of
her time. has been ordered to Samoa, and
will probably sail before New Years. The
possibility OF trouble in the little group of
islands Is given as the reason why the
antique and almost worthless vessel has
been dispatched. She will visit Honolulu
on her way.
Captain Longneeker. profitng by the dis
agreeable experience of his predecessor in
May last, will make certain that the ship Is
seaworthy before he leaves the coast, and
with this object In view will make trial

Early in May the Ranger was ordered TO
90 to China and Japan by way of the
Bering Sea. but was obliged to put in at
Seattle owing to the unaccounIable bump
ing of the engine, which made officers ana
crew fear that the vessel would be DESTROYED.
Her cylinder was opened at Seattle, and in
ii was found a chisel that had been battered
into shapeless mass by the piston. The
tool had been left there by a Mare Island
workman. Ii was also found that the after
part OF the engine bed had sunk and that
the vessel was in no condition to proceed
