Old Port Gamble Banks.

A marshal's sale of sailing vessels
occurred at Port Gamble last week,
the bottoms disposed of being the
barks Nidette, Northwest and Tidal
Wave, a part OF the old lumber fleet of
the Port Madison mill company, which
along with the other extensive prop
erty was taken in hand by the govern
ment courts under attachment pro-
ceedings a year or more ago. The
vessels have for long time been in
the company's boneyard at the mill
port, where an attache of the United
States marshal's Office has been in
charge. The purchaser in the present
case was A. w. Jackson of San Fran
cisco, the prices paid being $3.50 for
the Vidette, $500 for the Northwest
and $3.50 for the Tidal Wave. It is
said that at low estimate the vessels
were each worth $4,000.

In Support Of Leinors.

RIGHT OF ACTION FOR DESTRUCTION
OF LoGs.-An action for damages
under the statutes, for the destruction
of logs on which one claims lien,
may be maintained without a prior
determination in equity of the validity
of such lien, and need not allege the
value of the logs, If the amount of
the lien is alleged and damages asked
in that sum. A separate action for
damages, for the destruction of logs
on which one claims lien, may be
maintained for the balance due after
an action to enforce the lien as to an
undestroyed portion of such logs is
determined. All lien holders may
join in an action for damages, for the
destruction of logs on which they
claim liens.

Lumber Stock Short.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 25.-Lumber
dealers are getting short of stock and
they are on the hunt for vessels to
bring supplies from Northern mills.
Coasting vessels are scarce and chart
ers have risen so cents thousand in
the last three or four days. One dealer
has advertised for four or five vessels to
carry lumber down the coast, and he
has 50 far been unable to secure the
vessels required. The cause for this
dearth of coasting vessels is that the
extraordinary, dullness of trade dur
ing the past year or SO has driven
nearly all local vessels from the coast.
Several ships that have made regular
trips from the Sound here are now
carrying lumber from Northern ports
to the coast of Africa and doing it at
profit. Others are engaged on the
coast of Atlantic coast and several
more are plying between European
ports whenever they can get load to
carry.

IT appears, says the Oregonian, that
the extraordinary treasury deficit
since September l, is due more to ex-
cess of expenditures than to deficien-
cy of revenues, though the latter are
much less than the tariff thinkers pro-
missed. This is in face of the fact of
reduced appropriations. The appro-
priation of the last congress for the
current year were $3.50, 500, 6S1. This
appropriation of the last congress for
the current year were 1887 500, 6Sl.
This, with the permanent annual an
propriar ions, made the aggregate for
the year 1892 ,23O. 685, against $685.
5O4 1859 in the previous year of 1893
81. This is to say, the annual and
fixed appropriations aggregated for the
present fiscal year $27 ,25O,OOO less
than in 1893-94, and yet the current
disbursements have thus far been lar
ger. The explanation is obvious
Appropriations for last year were held
back-creditors of the government
"stood off" and bills due for service
and on contracts carried over, to save
the treasury from bankruptcy. Now
some of these old bills must be paid.
That is why larger deficits accompany
smaller appropriations. By operation
OF these causes, the treasury balance
on November l was reduced to S1O7.
34O, l46, against $119,9l9, 719 on Octo-
Der !, and $127 las, O97 on September
that is, reduction of over Sl2.

A BOYS CHASTITY FIND.
Ten Human Skeletons Discovered in q
Deep Gave.

Deep Gave.
Special to Richmond Dspatch.]
BRISTOL, Tenn, Sept. 1.-Charles
Rector and boy named Morris, in
exploring cave near Seven-Mile
Ford, Virginia, thirty miles East of
this place, yesterday, discovered two
skeletons, forty feet below the surface.
The cave had long been known, but
no one had ever ventured to explore
it, because of its great depth. The
Morris boy was let down by rope.
When the find was reported party of
citizens went to the cave to investi-
gate further. In all ten skeletons
were taken out, and were adjudged to
be the bones OF men, women and chill
dren. One skeleton was found in a
sitting posture, with the skull reclin-
ing on the arms, which were folded
across the knees.
Thus far there is but one way of ac-
counting for the charnel house. Old
citizens say that many years ago
there was an inn kept near this cave
by man named Allen, and that oc-
casionally people who stopped there
had mysteriously disappeared and
were never again heard of. The sup
position is that they were killed in his
inn, robbed of their valuableS, and
then consigned to the cave. Some of
the skeletons discovered were partial
ly buried under stones, and many of
the stones were broken. Whether
these stones were scales which fell
from overheard or were placed there
by foul hands could not be positively
determined.
