TAKE ISSUE WITH THE COURT MANY COUPLES MARRIED OFF THIS PORT. Sailing of the British Bark West York Delayed Because Her Deck Load Made Her Unseaworthy. Captains of coasting steamers and mas- ters of tugs take issue with the Supreme Court of California on the question of marriages ‘“‘on the high seas.” They as- sert that the shipping laws of the United States make it compulsory for the mas- ship’s log of “all marriages and deaths” that occur during the voyage. A mas- ter’s certificate of death is accepted, and why, then, should not a marriage certifi- cate be also accepted? “Again, the ceremony, in nearly every case, of marrying a couple is performed three marine leagues from the shore, and, therefore, ou e the jurisdiction of the United argued an old salt, who has tied many a ‘true lover's knot” in his time. “If a passepger or a sallor dies within three marine leagues of port,” continued he, “the body is brought ashore the case. The only way in which I can see that Uncle Sam has anything to do with the case is that the marriage takes place under the Stars and Striges, and the State courts have to do with it, as the marriage took place outside the State.” A great many well-known San Fran- cisco skippers have performed the mar- riage ceremony ‘on the high seas,” and the decision of the Supreme read with great Interest by them.

YM ONE EDWIN ROSS LOZIER of a Noted Firm of Bicucle Makers Touring the World With His Bride. Mr. and Mrs. Edwin Ross Lozier of Cleveland, Ohio, arrived here yes- terday on their honeymoon trip around the world. The firm of H. A. Lozier & Co., of which the Mr. Lozier now here is a member, is the largest manufacturer of bicycles in the world, operating three distinct plants in America—at Cleveiand, Toronto (Canada) and Connecticut. The wheel is very popular on the Pacific Coast, and the firm has immense interests both here and in Australia. The fortune of the Loziers is rated in the miilions. Edwin R. Lozier visited this coast about two years ago and made many friends in the trade and around the clubs. The announcement of his mar- riage to a wealthy beile of Cleveland on July 31 came as a surprise to his friends with whom he corresponded here, as no intimation of it had leaked out until the announcement cards arrived. After a tour of the world they will settle in Cleveland.

THE TALE OF THE NUGGETS UNCLE SAM GETS ALL THE CAN- ADIAN OUTPUT. Most of the Klondike Gold Has Been Weighed and Assayed and the Results Are Modest Ones. The measure of the Klondike gold out- put has been officlally taken with what appears to be a close approximation to the definite total that will be worked out to a declsive figure in the near future. F. A. Leach, superintendent of the United States mint in this city, estimates | the output at about $5,000,000 and gives facts and considerations to back up his es- timate. This is an enormous shrinkage from the $15,000,000 and $20,000,000 that have been | promised by all sorts of authorities, and it | is a big falling off from the newspaper es- | timates of recent weeks based on the tales of returning miners. Mr. Leach's estimate is the first officlal | one to be made, based on the actual meas- | urement of gold dust shipped out from | the Yukon reglon. = and the Quarantine Officer passes upon | that, of course, gives the Federal authori- | ties power to act, but I don’t see what | Court was | Whatever tales and estimates may be | given out by Yukon miners and corre- | spondents the fact will remain that the | gold produced in that icy El Dorado will tically all find its way to the United | States assay offices and mints, where its amount and orgin will be recorded. Whatever tales and newspaper Treports follow the arrival of each party of re- | turning Klondikers, their gold dust will soon be welghed and acounted for by Uncle Sam. Gold dust and nuggets are raw material which each owner, be it a prospector, a commercial company or a pank, promptly turns into drafts or colned eagles and double eagles. More than nine-tenths of the gold from | the north or elsewhere in this country soon reaches United States mints, which | except for the very small consumption in the arts, are the ultimate repositories of all the raw gold and foreign gold coins which reach the United States. The facts that the Klondike district is in Canadian territory and that a consid- erable percentage of the producers and | shippers of gold dust from there are Ca- | nadians make no difference. The gold | brought to British Columbia by Canadi- | ans and the gold dust bought by banks in British Columbla practically all comes | here, his is the natural market | for it adians do better by mar- | keting their gold at Seattle or San Fran-| o than they can by pa express charges and exchange to Montreal. Last year's output of Yukon gold near- | ly all reached the San Francisco mint. A little went to the United States assay of- fice at Helena, Montana, and some went to the Philadélphia mint. Since then a United Stat. ¥ office has been opened | at Seattle. Nearly all of the gold which | has arrived this year has been cashed at Seattle and at San Francisco. Two- thirds of that marketed in San Francisco has been sold to the Selby Smelting Com- pany, and one-third directly to the mint. That bought L elby’s Is at once T fined and deposited at the mint, so that the mint receipts include always the Sel- | by deposits. Mr. Leach stated yesterday that the re- celpts at the mint here had amounted to about $1,750,000 since the first arrival of Yukon gold a few weeks ago. This in- cludes the Selby receipts to date, and is the amount of Yukon gold which has come to San Francisco. He had just re- ceived a letter from the superintendent of the assay office at Seattle reporting that the receipts there were about the same amount—3$1,750,000. This accounts for $3,500,000. 1 estimate,” sald Mr. Leach, “that be- tween $200,000 and 330,00 worth of dust and nuggets has probably gone Bast, either shipped-there to be cashed or taken there by returning miners, who want to show it as a curiosity. I believe that| nineteen-twentieths of the gold quickly - assay office at Seattle, Sei- Mint here. A good many depositors have come to the Mint. Our biggest single deposit was about $120,000. From all the Information that I can gath- er from all sources I believe that less than $4,000,000 has so far reached this country. This does not include vanadian royaities or dust kept at Dawson for a circulating medium. Considerable that has reached us has come from the chan- nels of trade up inere. I estimate that there is about §1.000,000 more to come from this season’s output. The receipts of which 1 speak do not include the quartz mines on the coast. Last spring I report- ed to the department at Washington that the Yukon ottput would probably be be- tween $3,000,000 and $5,000,000." It was said by other authorities else- where that the dust brought out by the North American Trading and Transporta- | tion Company was sent Bast and was not included in Mr. Leach's figures. This amount might possibly reach $500,000. From this showing it would appear that | 6,000,000 would be a safe and conserva- five estimate of the entire Yukon output, | including the American side as well as the Klondike. It is interesting to note that the total gold bulllon receipts at the Mint in July were the largest in its history. They | were $6,143,448, or at the rate of nearly | $74,000,000 w year. This included foregn cons from Australia and Japan, and bul- lion from all sources. —_— e —— Influences of the war on politics | ‘discussed by prominent people in next Sunday’s Call.
