 Up to this time California has furnished the entire output of quicksilver in the United States, no cinnabar deposits else where having commercially developed. Now Oregon may go on the record, ac- cording to the Oregon Mining Journal, which says:
 .Quicksilver is soon to be produced in large quantities from the Black Butte mines in Lane County, about seventeen miles southeast of Cottage Grove. There is a mountain of ore of all degrees of richness, up to 56 per cent mercury. A contract has been let for the construction of thirty-ton quicksilver furnace. with condenser fryer, etc, and every prepara- ton Is being made for working the prop erty the coming season. The report of experts who examined the Black Butte mine says: All the indications from present qeveiopaiel,s. t. warrant tne con immense deposit of quicksilver ore, which will produce practically 2 to 3 per cent, which, with the ease and cheapness with which it could be worked, makes 1t one of the most valuable mining propositions in the world '

A SMART CABIN BOY.
M. Akada of the Steamer Belgic Ar rested on the Charge of
 Extortion,

M. Akada, cabin boy on the steamer Belgic. has been doing a land office busi- ness with his countrymen who happened to be passengers on the steamer He is now in consequence locked up in the City Prison on a charge of extortion.
 Kusutaro Baba and four friends were passengers on the steamer arriving here in January last. On the voyage they got talking to Akada, who informed them that they could not land on American soil under the exclusion act. but on the payment of $15 each he could fix it. They gave him the money before the arrival of the steamer, and did not know that anything was wrong till they began to talk with their countrymen here. Then they discovered that they had been vic- timized.
 When the steamer arrived on her pres ent trip they ca.4ed upon Akada and de- manded back their money, but he re- fused. and yesterday Baba appeared in Judge Joachimsens court and swore to a complaint for the arrest of Akada on a ? charge of extortion. His four friends were with him. and each was anxious to swear out warrant also, but 1t was thought that one would be enough.
 Akada was arrested yesterday after noon. just before the steamer started on her voyage to Lnina.

CAPTAIN OF
 THE CASPAR
 EXCORIATED His Negligence Causes the Death of Thir- teen Men. Scored by Captain Ber- |. mingham for Appeal ing His Case. Vessel Wrecked Throuqh the Criminal Negligence of
 Her Master.
LOWER COURT LENIENT.
A Hot Roast on Mariners Who Make Poor Excuses for Losing Their
 Vessels.

Captain Birmingham, supervising in- spector of steam vessels. yesterday rendered an opinion in the case of the appeal of Captain Ole Aufindsen of the steamer Caspar, which went down on Saunders reef with thirteen of her off, cers and crew, which should make that mariner feel worse than a green hand who has just been ordered aloft on stormy night. The decision not only crit icizes the captain for his willful negli- gence in losing the vessel, but practically accuses him of being the murderer of the men who lost their lives on her. Auflnd- sens plea of unusually strong currents" only holds him up for stronger criticism as 1t goes to show that he, like other mariners who have used the same argu- mert when their vessels were lost, should have used extra precautions for that very . reason.
 The steamer Caspar left this port on the afternoon of October 9. bound for Usal, an outside port, about 130 miles northwest of San Francisco. At about 3 o'clock in the morning she struck on Saunders reef and out of the crew of fifteen the captain and one of the sailors were the only ones left to tell the tale An investigation of the case was made by the local board of examiners, and Captain Auflndsen's license was suspend cd for a term of one year. This was con- sfdered at the time as letting the cap tain down very light. but he thought very differently, and appealed to the supervising inspector.
 The result can hardly be considered as satisfactory as Captain Birmingham not only sustained the decision of the lower court, but says he thinks 1t was extreme ly lenient and is surprised at what he terms the impertinence of Aufindsen in appealing the case He also suggests that
The San Francisco call., 1898-04-03

many others who lose vessels along this coast might advantageously be dealt with after the manner of the captain of the Caspar.
 In his decision Captain Bermingham says: "The appellant testifies that his steamer passed three miles of Point Reyes at about $ o'clock on the afternoon of October 22. It was raining considerably with strong southeast wind, which con tinued until the vessel struck Usal is an open port about sixty miles north of Saunders reef. on which Is located a whistling buoy. The appellant testifies that he aimed to pass within two miles of the reef to get the sound of the whistle. After that 1t would be neces- sary to avoid Point Arena To do so he would have had to head to the windward a little, and again two points to the north ward to reach his port or destination, which was an open roadstead where navi- gatlon would be very unsafe during the prevalence of the wind and sea at that time.
 Therefore, 1t is apparent to me that the appellant displayed criminal negligence in navigating his vessel as he did without getting cast of the lead. As consequence, he not only lost her, but caused the loss of the lives of thirteen of his officers and crew-all, in fact, but himself and one seaman, Chris Larsen.
 "Aufindsen in his appeal states that the inspectors did not pay sufficient atten- ton to the reports of Captain Bennett. steamer Umatilla; Captain Cousins, steam CT Pomona; and Captain Dunham, steamer Chilkat-' The said masters herein men, toned have filed report of a strong in- shore set. much more than usual
 But as all those vessels passed throueh those waters simultaneously with the Caspar, 1t is in evidence that neither of them took the bottom at any point on the coast. It Is in evidence, however, that Captain Dunham got his soundings In thirty-three fathoms off Saunders reef and hauled his ship out to westward one eighth of a point
 "1f 1t was necessary for the appellant to get the sound of the whistle. why did he not approach the reef carefully and not go ashore full speed without getting a cast of the lead? In almost every in- stance where a steam vessel IS wrecked on the coast of California or Oregon the master immediately sets up a plea of un- usual inshore currents. Is 1t not time that some allowance be made for such cur rents If they sometimes exist?
 Tn the case of the appellant there seems to be no extenuating circumstances that would justify me In setting aside the yer dict of me lower court which seems to have been lenient with the appellant therefore its decision must stand. and 1t is so ordered"

A Glance at the Rising Development of Our Copper Mines. A New Chemical Process in Montana-NoteS of Prog reSS Through the
 State.

California will be fully represented at the International Gold Miners conven- ton of this summer at Salt Lake City. When this broader getting together of the miners was started last year, the leaders of the California Miners Associa- ton were doubtful about it, fearing that the silver question would be dragged In among other things, but their fears were unwarranted, and the convention pro- ceeded on broad lines, doing much good. This years convention promises to be a greater success, and according to the decision of the executive committee of the California Miners Association, held last week, efforts will be made to send a large delegation from all parts of the State. At this meeting 1t was decided that the efforts of the committee on a department of mines should be directed to getting a commissioner of mines and a separate bureau In the InteriS Depart ment, rather than the larger and better measure, which seems a present impossi- bility.
 The annual report of the Mountain Copper Company, which has within two years developed a vast enterprise in its copper mines on Iron Mountain and its smelter at Keswick Shasta County, is the leading copper mining operations in this State and as an indication of what can and will be done with the copper resources of California
 During the year the company invested $195 220 in enlarging the shelter at Kes- wick and in other ways the scale Of operations has been enlarged. The quan- tity of ore mined and smelted was 165 060 tons, an average of about $50 tons day. This ore yielded 14,129 tons of copper. From these general figures in the report the Bedding Free Press. figuring the value of copper at 10 cents pound. esti- mates the gross value of the copper at g, 2,S25 500. This one contains gold and other values and the quartz ore pur- chased in large quantities for Aux yields a good deal of gold. The silver in the ore is estimated to average $4 30 ton. silver Is placed by this journal at about $4, 800 900, which Is probably not far out of the way.
 The pay roll amounts to about $60 900 a month and thus $720.000 a year is dis tributed there in wages alone. Whether fled or not. the showing is one of enor- nous and quick success with a Califor- mia copper mine. This property lay unde- veloped for many years, until Hugh Mc- Donald got syndicate of British capi- talists interested in it and there are per properties with ore bodies as great and with equal conditions for economical development
 The copper belt, thirty miles long. which sweeps north of Bedding. contains a number of undeveloped properties some day. There Is every prospect that the big copper mine at Copperopolis will be reopened soon A promising deposit is being developed in Fresno County. and attention being given to other copper claims in San Bernardino County and
