HYDRAULIC MINING INQUIRY
Instituted in California by the United
States Geological Survey.

SAN FRANCISCO. CAL, June 16.-In re-
Spouse to the memorial presented to Presi-
dent Roosevelt by the California Miners
Association, the United States geological
survey has begun an investigation into the
conditions affecting the hydraulic mining
industry of the state.
The motive that inspired the memorial
was hope that the gold now buried in the
ancient river channels of California may
be rescued by the hydraulic mining process,
it being held by the miners that such de-
posits cannot be profitdbly worked by
dredging, drifting or by any process except
hydraulicking, now restrained by anti
debris legisla ton.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
CRAWFORD TRIAL GOES OVER
UNTIL MONDAY MORNING.

An unexpected adjournment was taken
today in the case of William G. Crawford.
accused of conspiring with August w.
Machen and George E. Lorenz to defraud
the United States in connection with a
contract for supplying the Post Office De-
partment with letter-carriers' satchels and
straps. The proceedings terminated at
L 80 o'clock this morning, for the time be-
ing. The jury was excused until next Mon
day morning. and moment later the
court room was deserted. Today ended the
fourth week of the notable trial. When
Mr.. Morgan H. Beach, United States at
torney for the District of Columbia, at 10
o'clock Monday morning starts the first of
the summing-up arguments of counsel to
the jury the fifth week of the hearing Will
have begun.
Court sat yesterday afternoon until
nearly o'clock. but the prayers for In
structions had not then been disposed of
finally. The consideration of the prayers
was resumed Immediately after the opening
of court this morning and was In progress
for nearly one and one-half hours.
The prayers being out of the way, the
matter of the time to be allowed counsel
for the Summing-up arguments demanded
attention. The conclusion reached was
that II was not desirable to begin the ad-
dresses today and then allow lapse by
adjourning until Monday. so the beginning
week
Time Allowed for Argument.
1t was agreed that each side shall have
four hours for the summing up. United
States Attorney Beach will speak from 10
o clock Monday morning until 1918 o'clock
the time for taking the usual midday re-
cess At 1 o'clock Attorney A. S. Worth
ington will open for the defense. He will
speak for two, and perhaps three. hours
Attorney John G. Carlisle, for the Defense
may also speak Monday afternoon, but 1t
is believed that an endeavor will be made
to have the court adjourn for the day at
the conclusion of Attorney Worthington's
remarks. Attorney Conrad will close for
the government Tuesday, and verdict is
expected late that day.
Both the prosecution and the defense APP
pear to be confident of success. The at
torneys for the government think that
they have conclusvely established that
Crawford Is guilty, while counsel for the
defendant are equally certain that his In
nocence has been proved.
AS counsel have nearly three days for
preparation the indications are that the
summingup addresses next Monday and
Tuesday will be finished products.

angle of the courtyard so as to be

Holmes shook his head impatiently.

Let us hear the suspicious. I will

II will tell you then in a few words
the character of the three men who in
habit these rooms. The lower of. the
three is Gilchrist, fine scholar and
athlete, plays in the Rugby team and
the cricket team Nor the. college. and
got his blue for the hurdles and the
long jump. He is a fine, manly fellow.
His father was the notorious Sir Jabez
Gilchrist who ruined himself on the
turf. MY scholar has been LEFT very
poor, but he is hardworking: and in
dustrious He will. do well.
THE second floor is inhabited by
Daulat Ras.. the Indian. He is a quiet.
inscrutable fellow, as most of those
Indians are. He is well up in his work.
though his Greek is his weak subject.
He is steady and methodical.
The top floor belongs to Miles Nc
Laren. He is brilliant fellow when
