their two-mile straightaway contest.
There was some slight delay at the start,
but at last all four got away, with the
New York Athletic Club in the lead. An
eighth of a mile from the start the Yes
per crew suddenly stopped rowing and
No. threw UP his hands. The starter
called and called for the other three crews
70 cease rowing but the fight was too
up, although the starters warning was
reinforced by the whistle on board the
refereee's boat. The three crews. how
ever, still kept on, and the race developed
into a grand contest between the New
York Athletic Club and Schoolb0ys.
There was great commotion as the crews
neared the finish and the two went over
the line amid cheers, and it was not until
the judge at the finish had announced the
decision that it was known which went

posing the California Debris Commission,
secured the commissions permit to mine
after inspection of the dams and have
otherwise obeyed the requirements of the
Caminetti law.
This law of Congress places the regula-
ton Of hydraulic mining on the water
sheds OF the navigable streams of this
State wholly in the hands Of these Fed
eral engineers. 1t is not alleged that the
Caminetu law has been infracted The
suits ignore this law and assume that the
courts may ignore 1t at their discretion
and stop. any hydraulic mining, regard
less Of the Debris Commissions license;
that State court may review the com
missions acts. This would nuIlify the
Camtnetu law and again practically stop
hydraulic mining.
One suit has been brought in Sutter
County in the name Of that county en-
Joining the Kate Hayes hydraulic mine Of
Neyada County and another against the
Red Dog mine on GreenhOrn Creek, near
You Bet, Nevada County. The streams
on which these mines are drain into the
Bear and the Bear into the Feather. The
Red Dog company began mining behind
their Dam under permit. according to
the Caminetu law. In January of last
year. Their approved log dam is now
thirty feet high, it having been raised as
the reservoir filled with talings. The de-
bris that has gone into the Bear has been
that suspended in the water pouring over
The suit simply alleges that the de-
PENDANTS nave damaged two bridges
across the Bear River near Wheatland
one across the Feather at MarysvilIe and
also hospital, all through filing UP the
river. The suit is simply to test the con-
sututiOnality of the Caminetti law on
the 18th inst. the Superior Court of Sutter
County temporarily enjoined the Red Dog
mine in the face of the Caminetti law
The danger to this law. for which the
miners worked so hard so long, has led
the California Miners Association to
strongly take up the cause of the defend
ants. From the beginning the policy of
the association has been conciliation but
now ii is fight. The executive committee
held a special meeting on the matter at
the Union League Club Tuesday. Presi-
dent j. H. Neff in the chair Many San
Francisco members were present and
among others We're John McMurray of
Trinity County, Harold T. Power of Pla-
Ger, A. H. Ten Brock of Ell Dorado Ma
1or Mcbride of Nevada, A. Ekman of
Butte and G. c. Derby of Santa Clara
James Spaulding, president of the Red
Dog Company, and w. f. Englebright,
secretary, were present.
During a long and spirited discussion
1t was decided to take up the fight in
behalf of all the hydraulic miners and to
raise money to carry on the fight to the
end. A special committee was appointed
TO secure counsel Thus a long legal war
seems launched. The battle, however.
cannot revive the ferceness and bitter
ness of the old fight, which ended with the
Sawyer decision and the paralysis of hy-
draulic mining nearly twenty years ago

PASSING OF THE PASS.

Railways Again Threaten to Abolish
Free Transportation.
CHICAGO, Sept 2l.-It is probable
that after Jan. l next 100000 or more
railroad employees in the United States
will pay fare when travelling over any
but the respective lines on which they
are employed. Not only are all rail
road men to be barred from time
honored privilege, but everybody else,
not excepting the influential shipper,
will be forced to pay for tickets
At a meeting Of the committee repre-
senting the largest six railway systems
in the country in Chicago it was de-
cided to recommend to general meet
ing Of officers of all the roads west of
Chicago to be held in St. Louis Oct. 10,
an entire abolition Of passes and all
forms of free transportation. The only
exception to the radical action is en-
ployes travelling on business for their
respective companies.

STILL IN BUSINESS.
Commissioner Hermann Says the Land
Office Has Had a Busy Year.

Com missioner Hermann Says the Land
Office Has Had Busy Year.
WASHINGTON, Sept 21.-Land Com
missioner Hermann says that his an
nual report, soon to be made public,
will show the past year to have been
one of the busiest in the history of the
Office. "More homesteads have been
taken and moro cash sales made" said
the commissioner, Ethan in any one of
the recent years. This condition of af-
fairs is attributed by the commissioner
to the excellent state Of business, and he
says it has been the experience Of the
office that in times of prosperity the pub
lie lands are rapidly taken by settlers,
while in a period of depression settlers
are content to squat, with prospect Of
contest, rather than pay the small
amount required to obtain homestead.
1.-The prospects for the coming year"
said the commissioner, ''are equally
bright, and the opinion that the land
Office is ready to go out of business will
not be verified for years to come"
The commissioner is collecting data
for his report. which will be made pub
lie late in October. He will devote
some attention to timber matters on
the Chippewa reservations tending to
uphold the present system of disposing
of the Indian pine,
