ANSWER TO MR, MILLS, Text of the Miners’ Reply to His Offer to Treat With Them. NOT ONE DISSENTING VOICE. It Was the Unanimous Conclusion of the Mineral Lands Committee. The reply of the Miners’ Association to Mr. Mills was made yesterday, the mineral lands committee meeting in Chairman Ricketts’ office and agreeing wupon its wording. President J. H. Neff of the asso- ciation was telegraphed to for his concur- rence, a draft of the document having previously been sent to bim, and he wired back from Colfax for a speedy approval of it. There had been a slight difference of opinion between Attorneys Ricketts and Wright on the status of the association, but this was easily enough settled when they met together informally at noon. Mr. Wright's contention was that the proposed agreement with the railroad com- panies was merely in the nature of a modus vivends, both sides being bound morally by the honor of the thing. On theother hand, Mr, Ricketts felt that, apart from the obli- gations of honor, any contract with the railroad companies would not have much effect unlessthere was powerin the Miners’ Association to make the agreement legally binding. Thisis why Mr. Ricketts would like to see the association incorporated. The conclusion reached, however, was that the committee, being a creature of the association, could not question the standing of its creator; all it could do was the work given into its hands. Conse- quently at the afternoon meeting Mr. Ricketts announced formally that he fully concurred in the revly as finally drawn up. Thus it became the unanimous ex- pression of the committee. This is the full text of the answer to Mr. Mills: SAN FRANCINCO, CAL., Sept. 17, 1895. W. H. Mills Esq., Offices Southern Pactfic Com- ?mAy, San Francisco, Cal.—DEAR S1r: The Cali- ornia Miners’ Association’s committes for the protection of mineral lands respectfully advise you that the proposition contained in your letter under date of 20th ult., addressed to John M.

Third—The proposed agreement shall apply o those protests and contests against the atenting of said lands which have heretofore een made or instituted and thase which might hereafter ‘be made or instituted by or under the auspices of the California Miners’ Association as such, and shall not be held or understood to include or apply to any contest between said railroad companies or any of them and any individual claimant of land. Fourth—Thetwo commissioners to be selected under the proposed agreement—the one by the railroad companies and the other by the Cali- fornia Miners' Association—shall be appointed within thirty aavsfrom and after the concur- rence of the parties in the proposed agreement and shall examine and report upon the character of said unpatented odd-numbered sections of land, by sections where the lands have been surveyed, unless there are such dif- | ferences in the situation or character of dif- ferent parts of the same section as, in the opinion of sald commissioners, to require its classification by subdivisions, in which case the examination and classification of ever; such section shall be by twenty-acre subdi- visions. If the lands examined are not sur- veyed classification shall be made by tracts of such extent and designated by such natural or_ artificial boundaries to identify them as said commissioners may determine. Inall cases where saia commissioners shall agree as to the character of any of the lands embraced within any list of selections submit- ted to them for examination their decision shall be nnal; butin every case where they shall disagree as to the character of the lands within any such list, they shall have power and itshall be their duty to appoint a third commissioner to act with them, but only in deciding upon the character of those lands within any such 1ist the /character of which shall be 0 in dispute, and when the character of such dispuied lands within any one list of selection shall have been decided, thereupon immediately the powers and employment of such third commissioner shall cease. In all such cases where tnree commissioners shall ar;l. ‘lhe decigion of any two of them shall be nal.

The letter was immediately mailed to Mr. Mills and the committee will do noth- | ing until an answer is received from him. | Professor Max Miller asks for money to photograph the inscriptions of the Kutho Daw, near Mandalay in Burmah, before they are destroyed. The Kutho Daw isa collection of over 700 Budduist temples, each containing a white marble slab, on which part of the Tripitaka, the great Buddhist Bible, is engraved; together they ive the entire work, which consists of 275,200 stanzas, or 8,808,000 syllables, nearly fifieen times the bulk of our Old Testa- ment. The language is the Pali of the fifth century before Christ, believed to have been spoken by Buddha; the characters are the Burmese letters, and the text was revised by a learned commission. The monument was erected in 1857 by Mindon- min, the predecessor of King Thebaw, but the ‘dampness of the climate is rapidly effacing the inscriptions.
