Dredges and other machinery will

found for forty or fifty miles along the San
Juan, and there is any amount Of ground
that would yield 10 cents pan where there
is no water. The placers below where the
San Juan empties into the Colorado are
said TO be worthless. There are many evil
dences that the region in which the new
gold fields lie, now a barren waste at one
time teemed with life and supported large
population.
For miles along the rocky charms the
abandoned villages OF the cliff dwellers can
be seen. The historic rock has left evidences
OF its existence on the face of the cliffs,
where are visible hieroglyphics that were
painted by artists suspended by ropes. The
colors are as bright as If painted but yester-
day. No man has yet discovered the mean
ing Of these hieroglyphics. Trails long
abandoned are seen that lead along the cliff
and down to the water. They must have
been traverssd a long time, as the solid gran
lite has been worn away by the feet of the
cliff jewellers. These trails are found along
the Green river, as we'll as the Colorado and
San Juau. Within mile of Dondy. on the

San Antonio Dispatch 10 Chicago Herald.
Gen. Dyrenforth's big wooden hydrogen
gas tank sprung leak the other night and
the oircume mhient air was loaded with
something which affected all animal nature
in San Antonio. The small lizard on Alamo
flights climbed into the mesquite brush to
get breath of fresh air, and the lack rab.
bit ran for the tall timber. The rattle
snakes relaxed their grip about the tree
trunks and we're observed to-day in state
coma. Humanity could do little more than
hold its nose, and hold on tight. Gen
Dyrenforth is above all such trifes, and
with aclothes-pln on his nose he rode about
just as he did years ago in the Chicka-
hominy swemps.
The general wanted to honor a lady who
was present, aud brought forth a 10-pound
bag of roselite. 1t was hung to the limb of
a tree about 900 yards from camp. II was
discharged with an electric battery, a few
moments later the men in charge of the ex-
plosion brought in dead rattiesnake four
feet long, two jack RABBITS and wild tur-
key from Gen. Disadvantages preserve

was punctured millions of times bv splinters

to the University of Dallas. The incident
has made the Dyrenforth party wary OF
snakes.

Bills Brought on by Cholera Under
Discussion IN the Senate.
WASHINGTON, Jan. Gin the Senate this
morning Senator Hills resolution of yester-
day as TO the immigration bill was taken
up and agreed to. The quarantine bill was
then taken up, and was under discussion
when. on motion of Senator Sherman OF
Ohio, at 1880 o'clock, the Senate proceeded
TO executive business.
A fter a few minutes the doors wers re-
opened and consideration OF the quarantine
bill was resumed. The remainder OF the
days session was given up exclusively to
the discussion OF this bill and the bill to
Chandler spoke for about three hours, de-
voting most Of his argument to
the last mentioned bill, although the
other was really the one that
was up for discussion. To this
latter, however, an amendment was pend
ing to authorize the President to issue a
proclamation suspending immigration from
Countries where cholera may be prevailing
Mr.. Chandler treated this proposition as an
act Of oowardioe on the part of congress in
imposing responsibility upon
the President instead of TAX
ing that responsibility itself.
He was assured by Mr.. Frye that the in
coming President was not man to shrink
from responsibility, abiding to Mr.. Cleve-
lands position on the subject Of New York
senAtorship. This provoked a laugh, and
MIR. Chandler deprecated the Maine senator's
bringing his witticisms into a serious sub
ject.
Arguments against the quarantine bill
were made by Messrs. Mcpherson, Platt,
Mills and Dolph. Many amendments were
offered. some of which were agreed to
others going over until tomorrow when the
bill again comes up as the special order.
AN UNEvENTFUL DAY IN THE HOUSE.
The session OF the House to-day was an
uneventful one. The attendance was small
and nothing but private business was con-
sidered, with the exception OF bill provld-
ing for the muster and pay of certain officers
and men of the volunteer forces. About
twenty-five private pension bills were passed
and the House adjourned.
