Purser Reports on the Sums
Gained.

SEATTLE. Wash, June 23.--The
second big lot Of returning Klond!kers
since navigation opened reached here
this afternoon on the steamer Hum
boldt. There were 275 of them. and a
few OF them brought considerable gold
dust. Others were reported to have
drafts for large amounts, while Others
came home without riches. No accu-
rate estimate OF the amount of gold
dust can be made. for the reason that
the figures given by the different pas
sengers vary widely, ranging all the
way from $25O,O00 to s5OO.O0O. St!ll
more diverging are the conjectures as
to the amount Of drafts. Including
drafts and dust, the estimates range
from 100000 to s1,25O,OOO.
Purser Carroll claims that he had in
his custody s2sO,OOO in dust. and esti-
mates that there was about $500, 900
more in the different staterooms not
turned over to him. At 4 O'Clock this
afternoon $15O,000 worth OF dust had
been deposited in the United States
Assay Office. A $4,000 lot was billed
at an express Office for shipment to
Philadelphia.
The two largest dustholders are n.
Wolstea and Daniel Saunders, Of Eng
land, who have between them in
checks and drafts 100000. This
amount represents claims they sold in
the spring.

over the net earnings Of the year pre-
yious of 800, ,0S6.l3, the gain of earn

operating expences from 81, 225, ,295 80
TO 81, 4S7 ,S365l during the past year,
making an additional expenditure OF
S232 5l0.6l was due largely TO the in

JUDGE DABoLL's DECISION.

IL Favors the City-AppIication for InJunc-
tion Denied-It Will still be Contested.
decision in the temporary injunc-
tion case brought against the city sew
eral weeks ago by the Belding Land
and Improvement Company to restrain
the common council from carrying out
contract entered into with the Citi-
zens' Light Company for lighting the
city, was arrived at by Judge Daboll
and given out Monday.
1t was in favor of the city, establish
ing the right in the common council to
enter into such contract. The Courts
opinion was written out and was very
brief as follows:
Several questions are raised on this
application, but it was practically con
ceded on the argument that the only
real question was the power of the
common council of Belding to enter
into the contract in question, relating
TO the lighting of the streets Of the
city. | am of the opinion that they
have that power, and that the case is
governed by the act OF 1891, No. 1856,
which refers to and makes act No. .,
of the laws of 1870 part of that act,
and it seems to me that the supreme
court in the case OF the Monroe Water
company VS.. Heath, Mayor, 70, N. w.
Reporter, page 234, have so held and
interpreted this provision, and that
that case and not Niles Water Works
VS.. City Of Niles, controls in this case.
1T follows, that the application for
an injunction must be denied.
Dated April -, 1899.
S. b. DABoLL, Circuit Judge.
But the case does not end with this
decision as the Belding Land and I'm
provement Company have already
made move to carry it to the higher
courts. II can go Immediately to the
Supreme Court if the company's at
torneys SO decide by proceedings ask

the temporary Injunction asked for or
it can be tried in the circuit court and
then appealed to the higher tribunal
for final determination.
The city, of course, will be obliged
to meet the conditions as they develop.

MIR. HENRY A. LONDON.
Suggested For Professor of Law and
Secretary of State.

Mr. Henry A. London, of Chatham.
who was in Raleigh yesterday, is very
popular with his brother editors, and
deseryedly so. Since his name was men
toned for professor of law at the Uni
yersity, many of the papers had advo-
Gated his election. This weeks Newton
Enterprise says of him:
Judge Shepherd has resigned the
professorship of law at the University.
and Judges Burwell Conner and McRae
have each declined to be considered as
candidates for the position. 1t is very
desirable place and we do not see why
i. should go begging. The salary is
$1,000 a year, equal to that of the
judges of the Superior and Supreme
court, and yet it is very seldom that a
lawyer declines the offer of judgeship.
We have seen the name of Mr.. IL. A.
London, editor of the Chatham Record
mentioned in connection with the place
Mr.. London is not only a good editor
but also a good lawyer and "a true man
He would make an able and popular
teacher of law. We are not particularly
anxious for him to get the place. Fol
we have had our mind made up To-
some time to put him in nomination fo
Secretary of State when the proper tins
comes. The press of the State is en-
titled to at least one representative on
the State ticket"

Certain That it Has Been Bought Ur

The report has gained credence now
that VIM. A. Barber, of New York, has
taken up a majority of the bonds of the
Carolina and northwestern railroad a
narrow gauge line extending from LIE
noir, y. c., to Chester, S. c. The road
will be converted into a standard gauge,
and extended across the intervening
mountains to Bristol and will be oper-
ated by the Seaboard Air Line, which
connects with the Carolina and North
western at Chester.
The route to be chosen from Lenoir
toward Bristol would be by way of Will
son creek to Linville river, about 16
miles of extra heavy, and consequently
very expensive work, costing in the
neighborhood of 100000. At Linville
river they would connect with the Lin
vile river railway, narrow gauge 10
miles in length, running to Cranberry,
n. c., and at the latter place with the
East Tennessee and Western North
Carolina, also narrow gauge. The latter
two roads could be widened to stand
ard gauge and connect at Elizabethton,
with the Virginia and Southwestern and
on thence to Bristol.
