Sight Seeing in the Mountains.

VIM. Carley, wife, and son returned
Tuesday from two weeks trip to the
mountains. Mr.. Carley now has the
appearance of the typical mountaineer.
They spent one week at Kirkwood's
and then crossed over into Carson val
ley, visiting the state prison and COL
lecting several souvenirs which thew
will keep in remem brance of their trip.
From Carson they drove to Lake
Tahoe and remained two days, which
time was spent in seeing some of the
wonderful works of man and nature in
that locality. On their homeward
journey they stopped one night in
Placerville, and drove from there to
Jackson Tuesday. Mrs. Carley and
son were very tired when they reached
home, but both had gained in weight
and strength and express themselves
as willing to go again next year.

Baseball at San Andreas.


The game at San Andreas Sunday
between the Ell Rey's of Jackson and
the San Andreas team resulted in a
victory for the latter by score of II
I. Arditto pitched his first game of
the season for the Ell Reys and famed
out II men. Cavagnaro injured his
hand in the early part Of the game and
Poggi was substituted as catcher. The
game was a close one up to the sixth
inning, when by errors on the part of
the basemen the Calaveras team made
five runs. This seemed to discourage
the Ell Rey's and they never scored
afterward. The same teams will play
in jackson on the 14th of this month.
Following is the score.

DOLLAR WHEAT.

1t will be only natural if we hear a
good deal during the next few weeks
about dollar wheat, the general having
reached that figure on the Chicago
board Of trade. The dispatches speak
of dollar wheat as the dream of the
farmer" In this instance the term is
peculiarly apt Dollar wheat is dream
an iridescent dream, as far as the farm
er is concerned. He will not profit by
it any more than he would profit by
sharp increase in the price Of steel
rails.
Statistics go to show that at this sea-
son of the year not more than one per
cent of the wheat in the country is
in the hands of the farmer. The rest
belongs to the miller and spectators.
Dollar wheat in this instance is spec
ulative price, pure and simple, the re-
suit Of speculative operations by a
click of wealthy bulls on the Chicago
board. Somehow or other it nearly al.
ways happens that high wheat is new
er coincident with the close of the
wheat harvesting time.
That is the time when the farmers
would make money by increased prices
1t is estimated that fully fifty per cent
of the farems sell their wheat by Sep
TENDER. Seventy-fve per cent have
sold all Of their crop by the first Of
October, and ninety-nine per cent are
wheatless when the first of Febru-
airy comes around. This is because the
average farmer cannot afford to hold
his wheat. He must sell it in order to
meet his crop and harvest obligations

DECENTRALIZATION
PANAMA IN A NUTSHELL.

An eastern student of international
law has made an admirable summing
up OF the Panama case, putting his
conclusions in pure and clearer words
than any authority who has yet dis
cussed the subject:
1.-The hasty recognition of a new
State in Panama was not in accord
ance with the law of nations.
"2.-To justify it by the treaty Of
1876 requires new and forcer con-
struction of that instrument.
"3.-To prevent Colombia's coercion
of Panama is an act of war.
"4.-The man in the streets verdict
that our smart politics, sered Colon
bia right disregards law, sets danger
GUS precedent, detracts from the nat
ional dignity and may injure our i'll
fluence and trade amongs the Latin
American States.
"5-Our duty was and is to let Co.
lombia recover Panama if she can ::
our policy, to use her troubles to get
favorable canal action from the right
full sovereign.
"6.-Our recognition, if persisted in,
makes of Panama a tTeaty-making ag-
ent, but for ourselves only.
1.-THE canal treaty, negotiated an
ratified by the junta, with no cOnst,-
tutional authority or other authoriz.
ton, is of doubtful validity, ana Il :

Manchuria Sails for
Orient With All
Holds Full.

Captain Saunders. commander of the
Pacific Mail Company's new 1S,OOO-ton
liner Manchuria, was a proud man yes
terday as his huge charge glided from
her berth, made a graceful swing just
far enough from the wharf end to be
clear of danger and Strengthened out on
her course for the Golden Gate. 1t was
as pretty a departure as liner ever
made. 1t was Gone skillfully, and to
those of the crowd on the wharf who
were not weeping over a recent good
by the sight was most majestic. Any
sailorman would have been proud of a
command that behaved so spendidly be-
fore an audience Superintendent
Hauxhurst looked pleased. and an al
most genial smile softened for a second
the face of General Manager r. r.
Schwerin.
But the pride of Saunders will be as
nothing to the pride of the Russian
commander lucky enough to make
prize of the $2,00O,OOO steamship and
her s1,00O.OOO cargo Should some ship
of the Cars fleet encounter the Man
churia the Russian officers will find in

rupt her journey to Japan. A Russian
prize court would enjoy sitting on the
Manchuria, and there will be no ere
gret to report" in the message to the
father Of the tiny baby colonel if the
Manchuria falls into the clutches of
the bear.
The Manchuria sailed yesterday for
Honolulu, China and Japan. Her cargo
measures about $4,000 tons, and more
than half of it is for Japan. The total
cargo is valued at $500, 692. In addition
she carries treasure valued at s941, ,63I,
Of which $780, 900 is for Japan
Her cargo for Japan is valued at
SS5,41S and includes 1243 rolls OF leath-
er. 1541 bundles of steel. 14O5 steel bars,
402 bales of cotton, 929 bales of cotton
goods, 4OO57 centals of barley. 17.1OO
pounds of tin foil and 239 packages of
machinery. She also has 35,5OO barrels
of flour, consigned, however, to China.
The nature of the $50 packages of
machinery has been kept a profound
secret. but it is said that when this
shipment is unDacked and put together
by the Mikado's naval engineers the
result will closely resemble q submarine
boat. This boat is said to have been
purchased in Europe and was left on
the hands of the railroad when the Pa
cific Mail Company decided, in view of
the activity of the Vladivostok squad
ron, to go out of the contraband busi-
ness. Subsequent Japanese victories
have cleared the seas of danger from
Russia and the cOrnDanV does not an

Every cabin on the big liner was
crowded. The Manchuria carried about
forty passengers for Honolulu. and
among those bound for Oriental ports
were many missionaries.

Liaoyang to the Lokal Anzeiger, timed
9:25 o'clock this morning, said:
What appears to be the deciding
battle began at d. m. Since then the
artillery has been laundering and rifle
fire has been rolling necessarily. The
encircling heights resemble fire-emit-
ting mountains. The Japanese began
the attack east Of Liaoyang, along the
Taitse River, but were repulsed.
The firing is now specially heavy
south and southwest of Liaoyang. One
can no longer distinguish individual de-
donations. The Wyborg regiment, of
which Emperor William ii is honorary
chief, is deploying upon the battlefield
che Russian army is full of confidence.
The total strength of the combat
ants engaged is estimated at more
than half-million men. The battle
probably will continue for several
days"
Colonel Gaedke, correspondent of the
Tageblatt at Liaoyang. telegraphed to
his paper at noon to-day as follows:
The deciding battle has been in pro-
gress since early dawn. The Russian
positions are on the heights surround
ing Liaoyang, making a semicircle of
about eight and half miles from the
railroad to the upper Taitse River, and
averaging about four and a third miles
from the city.

progress. Since II o'clock it has reached

dispatch from General Sakharoff,
dated Liaoyang at 10 o'clock to-day,
said:
THE main Japanese attack is being
directed against the Russian center
and right, where the Russian losses
