Another Hole Knocked in 1t by sn
Orange County Judge.

RIVERSIDE, Aug. 24.-Another hole
was knocked in the County Govern
ment Act of 1897 to-day by Judge Bal
lard of Orange County, sitting for
Judge Moves of this county.
The decision was rendered in the case
of County Recorder E. H. Gruewell,
who sued the county to recover money
due for copying records. The new law
provided that the Recorder of TINS
county should receive 500 a month
salary and 5 cents a folio for copying
The Supervisors refused to pay the bin
for copying, and the case was taken
into court by the Recorder.
Judge Ballard decides that the law,
so far as it applies to the Recorder $
case, was special legislation, and there
fore void The grounds for the decision
are that the law provided that the
terms of the law applying to the Re
corder went into effect on the passage
of the law. while in the case of otner
county officers the changes affecting
them don't become operative uptH after

CARRVILLE, Aug. 24.-Prospectors

The O1inghouse Canyon Mine is
Yielding Well.

RENO (Nev), Aug. 24.-The Hutch
inson Company at Olinghouse Canyon,
near Wadsworth, cleaned up the first
twelve tons of placer dirt run through
the sluice boxes at Wadsworth last
evening. Tt yielded a return of SOY,
or little over ST. to the ton, and as
consequence the owners of the Grirer
placer claim are very much edated.
They will continue the work of sluic-
ing.
The company has two shifts on the
Hutchinson shaft and tunnel, and pur-
pose to push development work as rap
idly as possible. They took samples OF
the ore from both sides of the shaft
from the grass roots down to a depth of
forty feet, getting them every few
inches, and they averaged over $50
ton, and ONE sample taken at depth OF
twenty EIGHT feet went $500.
The company has begun a 200-foot
tunnel to connect with its shaft. When
in thirty feet they struck rock that
went $64 so per ton, and are still In the
same character of ore, with f1attering

marcn from camp to camp, making

Golf. 1t is not likely these marches
will be allowed, however.
The danger of a coal famine in the
Whseiing District has been greatly re-
duced by the peddling mines, over in
Eastern Ohio, going to work, this be-
ling their usual market.
The strike at Corfnth has caused the
loss of one million brick that were half
burned when the miners refused to fur
nish any more coal.
The operators conference was in Sc
cret session for several hours, and when
the doors were opened their press agent
announced that the mines would GER
tainly be started, with the old diggers
if possible, or with imported men, if
the old men refused to work. A COM
mittee was appointed, composed of rep
resentatives of every firm in the dis
trict, to map out the mode of proce-
dure for the resumption.
The press committee of the operators
who participated in the conference is
sued a statement tonight purporting
TO be an account of the proceedings in
conference. After reciting the sew
eral propositions under discussion in
the conference, and emphasizing the
fact that the miners representatives
peremptorily rejected all propositions
submitted by the operators, the report
says that the operators have exhausted
every effort in trying to bring about a
settlement with the officials of the
miners, whose propositions could not
be accepted because it meant an ad-
vance of 2I1b per cent. in wages and
would entail irreparabe losses on the
producers.
The report adds: 'Amicable and con-
ciliatory methods have failed to con-
vince or to move the leaders. The re-
sponsibFlity for whatever privations fol-
lows to the miners and their families
must rest upon the miners officials.
The miners officials, having rejected
the proposition made for an agreement,
the operators can only ask the miners
to consider the existing conditions, and
ask themselves whether they are jus
titled in continuing line of action
which is dictatorial'
Then it is broadly stated that the
action Of Mr. Ratchford is not above
suspicion, and it is strongly intimated
that the miners officials are acting in
league with the Hooking Valley oper-
ators against the interests of the Pitts
burg district miners.
