The aged ex-chief is expected to arrive at Torin in a few days. T Indians are not making any aggressi movement against the Mexlean troops, being content to remain in their own territory and to resist any ment upon the large domain over which they held undisputed sway for so long. | As soon as sufficient reinforcements arrive the Mexican troops will make a concerted advance on the Indlans from both the upper and lower sections of the Yaqui country. The report has reached Ortiz that General Francisco Ramirez, commander of all the Rurales forces of Mexico, will arrlve at Guay- mas the latter part of the month and take the field against the Yaquis at the head of two regiments of Rurales, which will be sent from Mazatlan and taken up the Yaqul River on trans- ports. Many of thesa Rurales were fo merly bandits, and are looked upon as the best mountain fighters in the world. BEAUTY OF THE GLACIERS IS V) Nature Mars Her Own Won- | derful Handiwork in | Alaska.

While not as large as the Muir, it was more pictur- esque its domes and pinnacles of auty has been almost com- destroyed, and it may take a s action of the elements to| 1 gain to its former height ! build and grande John Davies of Juneau, who owns a custom stamp mill, as well as the little er Thistle, took an adventurous hman, who wanted to see ice and plenty of it, up the Taku the other day. It was the first time any one had at-| tempted the trip since the earthquake | of Sunday, September 10. It was seen | that the Foster glacier has slid off down nearly to a level with the surface of the water—that is, from the sea level the clacier runs back at & gentle, rugged incline—the fine, transparent altitudes of ice having slld and crashed into the sea. The Englishman thought he saw | more ice than he probably ever will again in the course of his natural life. | What happened the glaclers in Dis- | | enchantment Bay, near Yakutat, has | {been published. Half a mile of ice jrushed into the water. Now the question is, what has hap- pened to that gigantic climax of na- | ture’s handiwork, so well known all over the country, Muir glacier? Can it alone of all the principal glaclers in | Alaska have escaped without Injury? People hereabouts do not think so. What makes the uncertainty worse is that it is highly improbable that there will be any way to find out before the | first touriet ship reaches there next sea- gon. There are no Indians in the vi- ! einity, and even if there were this is | the wrong time of the year for them to ! yventure far from home in canoes. There is one way in which the effect on Muir glacier may be guessed at, and it is a | | pretty good guess, too.

MINERS WATCH BIG DREDGERS Interesting Day Spent at Oroville. Epecial Dispatch to The Call OROVILL] Oct. 3.—The mining en- experienced to-day in and around O le one of the most delightful days of its trip. After an €arly breakfast on the train, which ar- rived during the night, the visitors dis- covered close to the depot a feature of California mining which delighted them more than have some big quartz mines. Close to the depot some Chi- nese were mining bedrock gravel through a small shaft and working it in a primitive rocker. Twenty carriages soon speeded the party down the Feather River to visit gold dredgers, six of which are oper- ating along a stretch of six miles of the river banks. All the dredgers of dif- | ferent type were visited and the pon- derous machinery and gold-saving de- vices were closely studied. They saw great machines costing $35,000 each which will handle 2000 cubic vards of gravel a day at a cost of from 3 to | cents a yard, and learned that around Oroville alone are many square miles of deep gravel beds yfeiding 15 cents or more a cubic vard, which can be worked only by this process, yet new in the California mining fieild. A fine lun- cheon was prepared and served near one of the dredgers by committees of Oropville’s hospitable men and women. Some of Butte' County’s big orange and fig orchards gave surprise and d light, and in town a epecial county mineral exhibit, which included several thousand dollars’ worth of gold speci- mens, was displayed. Among the main | features of the varied entertainment elaborately arranged by local commit- tees was a banquet in the evening. The party will arrive at Ione in the morn- ing for the mother lode trip, which will end Thursday night, the visit to Tuolumne County having been cut out.

There had | been no interruptions, and the only de- lay had been ‘slight importance i and that was on the land wires leading from Navesink into the office of the Herald and The Call. Thursday and on succeeding race | days the steamship Ponce will leave her pier at 9 o'clock instead of half past 9. This will make it certain that those on the steamship wiil be enabled to see the vachts go over the line for the start. Prior to the vacht races the Herald and | The Call received from the American Wir Telegrar and Telephone Compan: al letter stating that they were the ow of the Dolbear patents, coverin claimed, all} rights to wireless telegraphs and tele- phones in the United States, and that they formally protested against the use of the Marconi eystem In reporting the | cup events. The letter further stated that while reserving all rights to take, in the immediate future, such legal ac- | tior in the matter as they might decide | upon, they did not propose to interfere with and stop-the Herald and The Call Marconi reports, but desired it distinct- ly understood that they made such tem- | porary waive solely in the Interest of | science and because of the great public | interest in this important demonstra- tion of practical wireless telegraphy. Professor Dolibear and his assoclates have for years been experimenting on | wireless telegraphy with most satisfac- | tory ‘results, and in 1836 a patent was | issued to Professor Dolbear, with which | the company claims that the Marconi | patent conflicts. But in the company’s | | courteous and public-spirited letter | they decline to seek to interfere with | the cup race reports by the Herald and The Call. Professor Dolbear’s work | and the results he has obtained show | the active interest that is being taken | in this field of science by American in- ventors, and in the near future the | American Wireless Telegraph and Tele- phone Company intend to give a pub- lic exhibition of the workings of their system.

Ste- vens of the New York Yacht Club, ran across the Atlantic to England, and sail- ing in the only race allowed her on ihe programme of the Royal Yacht Squadron, against sixteen competitors, the best in the United Kingdom, captured the 100- guinea trophy, since known as “the Amer- ica’s cup,” and brought it back to New York, where it has since remalned, not, however, for want of effort on the part of the Britishers to regain it. Ten times, counting the present contest, have they come over in their best built and fastest flyers in full confidence of carrying back the prize, and nine times have they gone back empty handed. The now famous cup was won by the America in the regatta of the Royal | Yacht Squadron August 22, 1851, over a course which lay around the Isle of Wight and over whicn she beat her nearest ¢ ponent by over six miles. It remained llxi: pro“eny of the surviving owners of the yacht, John C. Stevens, George L. Schuy.. ler and Hamilton Wilkes, until 1857, when it was presented to the New York Yacht Club as a perpetual international chal- lenge cup. The New York club accepted the custodianship and responsibility of de- fending the cup. and sent copies of the Condlllonsh;lnd‘erb th(ch they held it to every yacht club of any consequence ii the world.
