STRUCK LIVING WATER.
Small Artesian Well in the New King
Wharf Slip.

While drilling through the land
ledge in the new Kings wharf slip "A
few days ago, the workmen were sur
prised to find jet of fresh water com
ing through the pipe. When the hole
was filled with powder and the blast
fired, a flow of fresh water followed,
indicating the presence of an artesian
well of considerable size, the water
spouting above the surface of the har-
Dor to noticeable height for short
time. At first it was believed that the
underground river from which the
city's principal water supply comes,
had been tapped, but as the volume of
water has diminished rapidly ever
since it was struck, it is now thought
that only a small pocket was cut into.
The flow of fresh water has not at all
interfered with the work.

crime he was never arrested He was
not sailor on the Irmgard, but for
some years past has been "A boatman
about San Francisco bay. Although
the belief is general that johnson met
with foul play at the hands of his
companion, it is not. likely that the
boatman will ever be convicted of the
crime. johnson is known to have
been a strong swimmer, so that the
theory that he fell overheard does not
carry much weight with it.

The Crisis Now Safely Past

CONSTANTINOPLE Feb. 18.-A Turk
ish squadron, consisting Of four war
ships and ten torpedo boats, has been
ordered to start for Crete within five
days. 1t will be joined there by all
the vessels now at the Turkish archi-
pelago and the Gulf of Alexanrietta.
a second squadron of five warships
and ten torpedo boats has also been
ordered to prepare for active service.
The minister of marine has asked
for credit of $2,500,000 to meet the
naval expenses.
CONsTANTINOPLE, Feb. 1S.-The
council of ministers, as a result OF an
all day session. has decided to leaye
The pacification of Crete to the powers.
The council also decided to send Kar-
athadori Pasha to Crete as imperial
high commissioner to adopt military
measures on the Greek frontier, as
previously intimated, to appoint Mar
shall Edham Pasha, who direcrted op-
erations against the insurgents of
Zeitoun in 1896, to command the Turk
ish troops at Ell Assoda, and call out
the first reserves of the third army
corps, now at Salonica. These meas
ures, however, are for purely defensive
purposes in order TO enable the Turk
jsh government to be prepared for all
'eventualities.
The sultan has informed the ambas-
'sadors OF the powers that in view of
the aggressive attitude of Greece he
has been obliged to adopt measures
required by the situation. The sultan
took occasion to express his satisfac
tiOn at the landing OF detachment of
marines at Canea.
In spite of the peaceful outlook it is
known that the debarkation of Greek
forces at Crete caused great censatin
at Yildiz Kiosk, and it required the
use of much tact on the part of the
ambassadors to prevail upon the porte
TO accept tue situation. =

troops are gathering near the frontier.

the sultan.

This step caused some alarm in
Greek circles, but it is not believed to
signify anything more serious than a
warning to the Christians and Greeks
to cease fighting while the powers
deliberate and come to some definite
understanding regarding the future Of
Crete.
1t is still believed the powers will in
some manner sanction the annexation

Pr1IsBuRo. Sept. -. The bituminous
coal miners strike 10 OF and already at'
au end. The 10 days which the miners
should remain idle has ended and the
1000 men who have been idle for II
weeks have, resumed work at an I'd.
vance Of 70 Per cent in their wages.
Desultory fights viii be continued, but
the most interesting one will be the
fight on the New York and Cleveland
Gas Coal company. a. it is the ambition
Of the miners to make that company
pay 65 cents o ton for mining. The
task is admitted to be . hard one, dnce
the interest centered on this one battle.
The wage scale committees having In
charge the work Of adjudioating the
differences on the various prices Of min.
ing has completed its work. The min.f
ers got practically all they asked for and
more than the conservative members
expected. All the miners in the Pitts.
burg district. where the price has been
accorded, have gone to work. The op.
orators are getting all the cars they.
need and the mines are making phe-
nomenal runs.
