ACTION AGAINST HYDRAULICKING.
The Anti-Debris Association is Still
on Deck.
Opposition to Running Mining Debris
Into the Valley DISSATISFACTION of
the Executive Committee.

The regular meeting of the Executive
Committee of the State Debris Associa-
tion was held yesterday afternoon at the
rooms of the Board Of Supervisors, J. NJ .
Morrison presiding and Robert Cosner
acting as Secretary.
Hon. George Ohleyer, as Chairman
OF the Legislative Committee. read a re-
port calling attention to the efforts made
by the hydraulic press to cause popular
belief in the magnitude of the mining
industry and the necessity of rehabilita-
ting hydraulic mining, regardless of what
| injury might result to valley interests.
He also called attention to some pas
sages in the report of the Commissioner OF
! Public Works relating to the use of the
American River basin as place of de-
! post for slickens. He disapproved oil
that portion of the Commissioners report.
and pointed out the FOLLY of attempting
to compromise with those who were en-
gagged in what he termed "a work of de-
yastation." The report then proceeded:
:" our committee has recently come
into possession Of the following facts:
The Kelly Hill hydraulic mine in Butte
County about one year ago secured per-
mission upon q certain showing, from the
Debris Commission to mine by the con-
structiOn of dams. The company built
nine dams across a rayiue between the
valley and the mine.
This mine was small affair and
| thought able to control its debris. Below
the lower dam was field of alfalfa and
fresh debris appearing on it, an iuvesti-
CATION revealed the fact that every dam
was full To overtlowing probably with the
coarse material, while the finer was COW
aT- - fig,iNi ,1 f,lr
ION further examination it was found
that the company had failed and its men,
! bers had taken hasty leave OF absence
| leaving no one to care for the debris and
| the dams.
Granted that this removal of mount
aims TO the valleys and bays shall have
unlimited time and permission to con-
/ tlnue, the end must be to leave mountain
and valley wreck and a shifting desert
/ OF sand, with no one to care for the
! crumDliug works OF man. 1t is to hasten
this contamination that our aid is sought
/ Give it, and the historian is already liv-
! ing that will tell the world that a people
once inhabited the fairest portion OF
| Gods footstool, and then lost it to them
selves and posterity by joining their de-
! spoilerS.'
The committee resolved that they
would oppose any feature of reclamation
that proposed to stow mining debris in
the valley basins, and the Legislative
/ Committee was requested to formulate
the objections of the association to any
! such measure.
/ W. I. Phipps. the Manager, reported
| the operations under his charge for the
last month, and the report was placed on
file.
The committee reelected for the en-
suing year the present officers, as fol-
! lows: Chairman, }. NJ. Morrison; Secre-
tary, Robert Cosner; Manager. w. T.

people.

BOSTON, Sept. 1.-THE British
steamer Taft, just in at this port from
Cuba, September 10, brings news of
serious state of affairs at Banes, the
most important fruit port on the north
ern coast. The Taft reports that Banes
has been evacuated by the Spanish
after feeble resistance; that the entire
section of the island is now in the
hands of the insurgents, and Char.
which itself is one of the strongest and
best fortified cities on the coast, is in
perilous position, although the
Spaniards have between 1000 and 5000
soldiers at this point and two men-of-
war in the harbor.
When it became known that the re-
bells threatened Banes, NJ. Dumers,
who practically owns the town and
who is one of the wealthiest planters
on the island, sent to the Spanish Of
ficers at Char, about forty miles dis
tant an urgent request for troops, and
the Taft was placed at the disposal
of the government for the transporta-
ton of troops. About 100 soldiers We're
hastily put on board the Taft and ship
ped to Banes, but after they had ar
rived they found that the rebels had
already sacked the town and were
camped on the outskirts TO the num-
Der of about 5000. There were only

THEIR PETTIF0GGING TRICKS
The Judge Administers a Severe
Rebuke.
Martin Quinlan Supplies Another
Link to the Evidence Furnished
by Mrs. Crosset, and Quinian's
story Is Fully Corroborated-Net
Is Growing Closer Each Day.

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 17.-As the
trial of Theodore Durrant progresses,
strong evidence is being piled up
against the defendant.
The prosecution has shown by the
testimony of Mrs. Vogel that the &C
cused walked up and down the side
walk in front of the High school until
Blanche Lamont came out. He was
then seen to take a car with her and
started toward Market street. Later,
he was seen on a Valencia street car
in company with a young lady answer
ing Blanche Lamont's description by
Mrs Crossett, who has known Dur
rant intimately for years. The evil
dence that has been introduced rela-
tive to Durrant's whereabouts on the
afternoon of April 3. is directly con-
Trajectory to that of his statement
made on the night of his arrest-that
he had not seen the murdered girl
after he left her on the way to school
on the morning of the Sd.
Another Link.
Martin Quinlan, an attorney, took
the stand and supplied another link
to that furnished by the evidence of
Mrs. Crossett, testifying that he saw
Durrant and a. young lady walking on
Bartlett street toward Emanuel
church about 4:10 on the Sd of last
April. The witness adhered to his
story, and refused to be led into the
slightest contradiction.
The defense tried to impeach his
reliability, by questioning him as to
his character, and asking if he had
not been arrested for felony.
The court sustained an objection to
the questions, but the defense man
aged to get before the jury the state
ment that Quinlan had twice been ar
rested for assault to murder and once
for another crime.
The court severely reprimanded the
defendants attorneys, who were OBJ
liged to admit to the jury that Quin-
Ian had been acquitted on each
charge.
David Clark who accompanied
Quinlan on the visit to St Luke's hos
pital late on the afternoon of April g.
was then called and corroborated all
the previous witnesses had stated re-
garding his movements with Clark
His testimony narrated in detail the
story told by Quinlan.
Mrs, Caroline Leake was called as a
witness, and under the questioning of
the prosecuting attorney, took Durrant
and his girl companion up to the door
of Emanuel church. Mrs. Leake was
positive she saw Durrant enter the
church with female companion on
April 3. She has known him for wears
and could not be mistaken.
Cross examination failed to weaken
her testimony.

Protests Made by One of the Attor-
neys.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 17.-lIr Ma
thaniel Paige, enc Of the attorneys for
Antonio Mora. in the claim which has
just been settled, has protested to the
state department against the nom
allowance of interest, but it is now be-
heved at the department that the pro-
test viii not amount to much.
1t has been known all the time that
Mt. Paige advocated holding out for
the full million and half. with in
terest, which would have brought the
claim up to about 1920, coo, but there
were reasons which induced Mr.. Olney
to recommend the settlement of the
claim on the basis agreed on. He IS
said to have taken the view that II
the Cuban insurgents should succeed
in getting possession of the island,
Spain would probably repudiate the
entire debt
Secretary Olney has promised MI.
Paige that he would consider his pro-
test, but this promise is regarded as
formal and of small Importance. The

torneys with the exception of MI
Paige agree to the settlement before
the draft was deposited at the state
department. Mr.. Paige. when seen to-
day, said ne thought it was possible
that Congress might reopen the ques-
ton in view of the resolution of the
last session instructing for the collec-
ton of both principal and interest.
but declined to say to what extent he
would press the point.
MIR. Paige was one of Mora's origi-
nal attorneys. He has been in the
case for twenty-five years. He says
it was impossible to state the amount
covered by assignments, all of which
are on file in the state department,
but he thinks that after all the as
signments are paid, Mr. Mora VIII
have about 100000 left. Mr.. Paige
also says that unquestionably some Of
the assignments were made for SER
vices never rendered. but he could not
say what proportion was included In
this class. Mr.. Paige claims to have
spent $4,000 of his money in prosecute
ing the claim,
