TO TEST THE MINING LAW,
The Debris Commission Will
Prosecute an Offending
Mine-OWner.
TWO Other Mines Placed on the
Suspension List for Delin-
QueECieS.

The California Debris Commission has
thrown down the gauntlet to hydraulic
miners who have attempted to operate
mines without reference to the regulations
or regard for the authority of the commits
SION
The commission has determined to prose-
cute in the Federal courts the owner of a
mine that has been operated without the
sanction OF the commission and in defiance
OF the Federal regulations appertaining to
hydraulic mining
The owner is L. Y. Tefft and his mine,
known as the Concordia placer, is located
near Cromberg, in Plumas County. The
case was considered at session of the
Commissioners held yesterday.
1t appears that Tefft some time ago filed
with the commission an application to
open the Concordia mine near Cromberg.
He was directed to build a brush and log
dam to prevent the exit of debris, but he
failed to carry out the instructions of the
commission and commenced mining.
He was caught twice at work and yester-
dav the Commissioners decided to GRIMM
allv prosecute him in the Federal courts.
The case will occasion wide interest
among hydraulic miners all over the State
Tor several reasons. In the first place. per-
soEs opposed to the resumption of hydrau-
lie mining have frequently said that the
Debris Commission was formed for no
other purpose than to grant applications
Tor the reopening OF closed-down mines
without regard to the proper management
OF the mines. Moreover, the commission
has hereto fore inflicted no sorer penalty
than the suspension of permits in cases
where mines were not operated conform
ably to Federal regulations.
Now that the commission has decided to
resort to criminal prosecution, it would
seem that radical method will be used to
enforce obedience to regulations. The
maximum penalty in the case OF Tefft is a
ilne OF $4,000 or one years imprisonment,
or In the discretion of the court, both pun
ishments.
The Furnishing hand of the commission
has also fallen heavily upon two other we'll
known placer mine owners.
Inc Cleveland mine in Sierra County.
owned by James Bean, was ordered placed
on the suspension list. Bean secured per-
mission to raise q dam near his mine, and
subsequently raised it much higher than
he was authorized to do by the commits
sion.
The American House mine was also
placed on the suspension list because its
owner, w. r. Reed of La Porte, Plumas
County, failed TO notify the commission OF
an accident to the impounding works.

Over its right arm was hung a PAIL which
