NOME BEACH MINES.
Important Decision Rendered by
Land Commissioner Hermann.

WASHINGTON, Dec 13.-A very i'm
portant question has just been decided
by Commissioner Hermann of the Gen
eral Land Office, governing placer min
ing upon the beach of Behring Sea, off
the coast of Alaska at and near Cape
Nome, the new gold field. The decision
affects mining and locations, embracing
tide lands below the line of ordinary
high tide
Numerous applications are pending
before the Interior Department as to
locations upon such lands, which have
been demonstrated to contain gold in
marvellous quantities. Individuals or
associations of persons and Incorporated
mining companies are seeking conces
sions from the Government by which
they may acquire exclusive mining
rights and privileges pertaining to sucn
tide lands.
The Commissioner decides that tide
lands in the district of Alaska are not
public lands subject to disposal to indi-
viduals, under any of the existing land
laws of the United States, and that the
department has no statutory authority

JAMAICA TREATY.
California Delegation Looking AZ
ter the States Interests.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 13.-The Cali
fornia delegation in Congress is taking
an active interest in the reciprocity
treaties recently negotiated, particular
ly in their effect on citrus fruits. Rep
resentative Needham of California, who
represents the largest citrus fruit dis
trict of California, said to-day that the
20 per cent. reduction allowed in the
Jamaican treaty would operate to the
serious disadvantage of the California
fruit product. Even at the present tar
if rates, he said, the California ana
Jamaica fruits were on equal terms.
The freight on a. box of oranges from
California to New York is 80 cents
The freight from Jamaica is 30 cents
and the duty 90 cents, making a total
cost of 80 cents a box. Mr.. Needham
declares the 20 per cent. reduction al
lowed in the Jamaica treaty will turn
the scales in favor of the Jamaica fruit.
He expresses himself as opposed to the
ratification of the treaty and against
the negotiation of other treaties lower
ing the rates on citrus fruits.
Mr. Kahn, another member Of the
California delegation, expresses salts
faction at assurances received from the
President and from Reciprocity CONF
missioner Kasson that no further reci-
procity treaties would be negotiated un-
less the California delegation were
given a hearing.
The California delegation recently
called at the White House and pre-
sented the subject to the President.
who, in response, gave the assurances
referred to. Mr.. Kahn regards this as
mainly important in removing the like
lihood that other West Indian treaties,
patterned after the Jamaican treaty,
will be negotiated.
The extent to which California wines
are affected by the French treaty is
also receiving attention from the Cali
fornia delegation, although their chief
representations to the President have
related to citrus fruits.
