Fraser River Gold.

Vancouver, Bet has been known
for long time that the black sand of
the Fraser river contained large
quantity OF gold, but there was no
Canadian company of sufficient capital
or enterprise to work the sand in guam
titles. At last the New Westminster
Board of Trade invited a number of
San Francisco capitalists to establish a
black sand pulverizing works in New
Westminster. On the strength of this
invitation company was formed in
San Francisco. The company's works
have been running night and day for a
short time, and have treated 250 tons
OF sand scooped from the Fraser, ex-
tracing therefrom $500 in flake gold.
or $50 worth of gold to the ton. As
the black sand of the Fraser is limit
less, it is probable the company will
reap rich harvest of gold. 1t is pur-

SAN BERNARDINo, March 2O.-The Red
lands, Lugonia and Grafton Domestic
Water company has filed another suit
against the court to set aside the ordinance
passed by the city trustees of Redlands
regulating water rates. This suit differs
from the one decided few weeks ago in
that an additional item is included in the
statement made by the company, to the
effect that the running expenses of the
company are $4,000 year. The finding of
the court in The former trial was that the
company was making a net profit of about
5000 a year, and the court could not inter-
fere, although the conpany's plant cost
100000. With this new showing, how
ever, it will appear that the company is
losing over $4,000 year. and on the
strength of the expressions of the court in
the former opinion the water company now
expects to knock out the ordinance.
