TO SAVE HISTORIC MONUMENT
FRENCH COMMISSION TO PRE-
SERVE MONT ST. MICHEL.
One of the Picturesque Places in
France in Danger Of Losing
Its Striking Features.

Special Cablegram TO The Star.
PARIS, July 5.-One of the finest his
torical monuments, as well as one of the
most picturesque places in France, is
in danger of losing some of its most char
acteristc features. Mont St. Michel
the rock crowned. with the marvellous
architecture of its church, its abbey and
its fortifications rising out of the bay
of the same name in l.ie angle Of the
coasts of Normandy and Brittany, owes
its unique picturesqueness largely to the
sea- which washes the base of the rock
and practically surrounds it at high tide.
1t is true that in 1880 the rock was
joined to the mainland by an embank-
ment along which road was constructed
and steam tramway now runs. These
innovations to some extent diminished the
impression produced by the vision of the
guarded mount and It's buildings, but a
graver encroachment upon Its isolation
has more recently been threatened owing
to the continuous reclamation of land
in the shallow bay and the construction
OF what the Dutch term 'polders." This
situation ultimately aroused the attention
of the French government. as the mat
ter had been vigorously taken UP by the
press and by the Touring Club de France.
A commission Of twenty-six members
was appointed BY the ministry Of fine
arts. and. after inquiry and delibera-
ton, 1t voted for suspension Of all works
of reclamation in the Bay of ST. Michel
which approached within 1000 meters of
the island.
To Arrest Sitting of Bay.
The commission further recommended
that, in order to arrest the sitting up
Of the bay, the existing embankment
should be demolished for a distance of
1000 meters and that the road should
for that distance be carried over an
open stockade.
The recommendations of the commits
sion appear to have excited some appre
tensions at the ministry of fine arts on
account of their radical character and the
possible cost of giving effect to them.
1t is stated that the minister of public
works, NJ. Barthou, who had been ap-
preached on the subject. has taken the
matter up, and the commission has
been summoned to resume its sittings In
the Palais Royal.
NJ. Barthou is understood to be deter
mined to take action. and, addressing
deputation of the Touring Club, which
recently waited upon him. he declared: /:
I have the habit of keeping my promises,
and l have. you state, pledged myself
to save Mont ST. Michel

CHAMBER OF MINES
TO issue ANNUAL

Los ANGELES, May 1S.-The
Chamber of Mics is now preparing to
issue it's annual booklet, which will be
somewhat larger than the booklet for
1908. This booklet will contain a list
of the members of the Chamber, classi-
fed under various sub-headings, show
ing their business; the usual statistics
in regard to the growth of Los Angeles;
bylaws of the chamber; report of the
officials; and in addition, tabulatad
statement showing the mining camps of
the southwest, distance by miles and
hours from Los Angeles, together with
railroad and stage schedules.
The Chamber of Mines has been in
correspondence with the Interstate
Commerce commission, in an endeavor
to secure ruling by the commission
in regard to free transportation of ore
specimens from the mining sections of
the southwest to Los Angeles, said
specimens to be used exclusively for
exhibition purposes. The chamber is
just in receipt of letter from Com
missioner Lane, advising that section
% of the Interstate Commerce commits
sion act provides that property may be
carried free or at reduced rates "to
or from fairs and expositions for ex-
hibition thereat,' stating that the com
mission rules that the Chamber of
Mines is an exposition within the
meaning of this provision of the law
and that a carrier subject to the act
may lawfully carry free or at reduced
rates property consigned to the Cham
Der of Mines solely for exhibition pur
poses.
The chamber will take up with Wells
Fargo & company this ruling of the
commission, in an endeavor to add to
their mineral exhibit, as well as the
economic and geologic exhibit now
planned for the chamber.
The chamber also has on file hand
book of Mexico and late map of that
republic, issued by the Bureau of Amer
lean Republics, and expects soon to Sc
cure from the postoffice department
star route maps of California and Ne
vada, Arizona, Utah, and New Mexico,
all of which will be on file for the use
of mining men and the general public.
