Grabbing Timbe: Lands

In report filed with Lewis E. Au- bery, state mineralogist, Special Agent Horace Stevens of the state mining bureau, who was sent out recently to investigate tine alleged illegal locations of mineral lands and interference with the rights of miners in the Susanvile and Marysville land districts, makes some staltling charges. His report bristles with interesting allegations and not few conclusions which are just as interesting.
 Stevens opens his report by relating his personal experience in the office of Surveyor General W. S. Graham, who declined to allow draughtsman in the employ of the mining bureau to have access to certain plats of land, on the ground that other draughtsmen had falsified originals. This episode, he says, is significant as revealing some of the tricks employed to prevent any true segregation of government lands, and he expresses his surprise that, under the circumstances, the mineral interests of the state have been given any consideration at all.
 At Marysville, Stevens saysh he found that c. E. Sweezy, an official of the United States land office, appeared as an attorney for record for l60 out of 170 selections of tracts under the forest reserve lien land laws, embracing over 27,000 acres, and that Sweezy admitted to him that he had made selections under the scripper law of III. .00O acres, 27,000 in the Marysville district, 10000 in the Susanville district and 14,000 at the Bedding office.
 At Orovile Stevens found that the Diamond Match company, which he was informed had refrained as far es possible from interfering with mineral rights. owned 35, 600 acres of patented land and had secured control of over 20, 1000 acres more. As this corporation, was in his opinion, unquestionably op-

erating in mineral belt, he suggested a more searching investigation than he was able to make.
 Continuing he says: "One of the most extensive employers of the forest reserve lien as basis of getting title to mineral landsappears to.be Jacob H. Cook, who is working in the interests of Wheeler Brothers, the New York capitalists. He has located large acreage in the vicinity of Cancels Peak in Plumas and Butte counties, nearly all made in the dead of winter, or at a time when the snow was so deep that it was simply impossible to determine the true character of the land. He has enlisted community sympathy by all sorts of glittering promises as to railroads, saw mills, paper mills, etc. to be established and has swallowed the necessary non-mineral affidavit at one fell swoop."
 After showing that part, at least, of one of Cooks claims had been worked for years as placer claim, and citing other instances of the point he makes Stevens continues:
 "Such of the territory as traversed between Mooretown and La Porte, by the Lumpkin mil and Cancels Peak route, has not been prospected to any great extent. Important mineral dis coveries are certain to be made there if prospectors are permitted to pursue their exploration unmolested. But if the region is allowed to fall into the hands of syndicates everybody will be excluded from the lands and for the next twenty years, if, as alleged. all this wholesale grabbing is done in the interest of a gigantic eastern lumber trust, those forests will become as silent as midnight on the desert of Sa- hara.'
 The special agent says that Quincy, Taylorsville, Crescent Valley and Greenville were prolific in accounts oi the manner in which miners have been imposed upon, but states that he was unable, on account of the lack o1 time, to investigate them thoroughly.

AZTEC TREASURE FOUND
Remarkable Discovery is Made by a
 Party of Americans

A remarkable story, authenticated of the discovery of hidden Aztec treas ure of fabulous value has just been reported to the Government authorities at Topic by Pablo Mertino. the par.
 sh priest of Icsca, Mexico. The priest makes statement, which is concurred in by several reliable wit nesses to the occurrence, that party of Americans, headed by an archaeolo. gist who gave the name of Heverick, arrived at Icsca several weeks ago and went from that place into the moun- tains, accompanied by three Mexican guides. The archaeologist got his bearings by means of chart which he claimed to have copied from an Aztec stone tablet in the National Musuem in the City of Mexico. He located a vast cave in a mountain near 1csca. Immense stone images stood about this chamber. In one end was handsome altar, above which burned bright flame supplied by natural gas from 2 crevice in the wall. It has probably been burning for many centuries. In a chamber adjoining the main temple was found great store of ornaments and utensils belonging to the Aztecs or some otler prehistoric race. Twelve burros were required to transoprt the articles taken from the cave to San Bias. It is said to be the largest and most valuable collections of ancient relics ever discovered in Mexico.

John Nystrom, Swedish sailor or the United States army transport Sumner, sacrificed his life while at- tempting to save an American flag, which had been torn by gust of wind from the stern of the vessels launch. He plunged into the water and se- cured the banner, but was caught by the strong ebb tide and drowned be- fore he could be reached by boat.
