waters of the Pacific The ocean rolls its
tremendous breakers over the edge OF a huge
basin blasted out of the solid rock, and is
led by tunnels and drains into the bathing
pools where 1t is kept constantly fresh and

perfectly clean condition. The principal tank
OF the baths is 275 feet long and $50 feet

The crowd remaining in the court
yard greeted NJ. Rochefort's exit with
great cries of "Vive Parmee" and
"Vive la France" They were eventual

claim against the Kansas Pacific without the
necessity of a foreclosure sale.
Up to yesterday the best offer made by the
committee fer the e yernment's interest in
the road was 81 10000, ard upon this being
declined another proposition was made on a
basis Of s. 500 coo, which also was declined:
The government is fixed in its purpose not
to accept less than 81. .303 coo. the principal Of
the debt as the difference between this
amount and the Offer already made is only

pay off the first mortgage and for post
ponement of the sale, the full amount Will
have been offered aRd accepted.
