Los Angeles. Cal.-The recent

tory expedition to Lower California
aboard the U. S. S. Albatross was the
most fruitful and interesting scien-

and it's discoveries are OF inestimable
value, according to P. |. Osburn or
Pasadena, who acted as guide for the
party. The cruise covered practically
all the islands in the Gulf OF Cali

BY far the most important find was
made in a large hidden cove on
Guadalupe island, where the scientists
came upon three herds Of sea ele-
plants, about the present existence
of which there has been serious
doubt, many believing them to be ex'
tinct.
The first sea elephant seen was a
gigantic bull lying prone on the sand
under a towering cliff. AS soon as he
sighted the explorers he made for

was the largest seen and measured
about 81 feet in length. The weight
was enormous.
The party managed to round up
five live young sea elephants, and
these were taken aboard. They did
not show the well-developed elephant
like snout or trunk of the adults and
resembled the California sea lion
They all showed fight and wallowed
about the deck increasingly. ThelI
call, hard to describe, is a concert OF
sharp cries and barkings.

Irregularities Charged.

Leadville.-State Public Examiner
H J. Leddy having found irregulari-
ties in the accounts of some of the Of
ficers of Lake county, will probably
institute suits to recover the money
alleged to have been wrongfully used
or to criminal prosecution where such
a step is possible.
In some cases the Irregularities, 1t
is alleged, were caused by the ignor-,
ance of the law and in other cases
they are set down as pure graft.
Leddy says that for the past ten
years the clerk Of the Board of Coun-
ty Commissioners has been paid a
salary of $2,400 per annum. Attorney
General Benjamin Griffith has rem
dered an opinion to the effect that.
according to the statutes, the clerk
should receive s. day for every
meeting held. If meeting was held
every day in the year, it would mean
that he would be entitled to only
1885 year. In that case there is
due the county $3.50 for illegal dis
bursements to the clerk during the
ten years. Leddy alleges that the
board has never held more than
twelve meetings month and aggre-
gately there is owing the county some
thing like $4,000.
