Commissioners to Consider the Offering at Next Meeting. The Big Basin Lumber Company has concluded not to charge the State $100 per acre for the lands in the Big Basin in Santa Cruz County. This fact is brought back from the Big Basin by the Redwood Park Commissioners and the members of the advisory commlittee, who went down to find out for themselves whether the basin was adapted for a park. Mr., Mid- dleton, who acted as spokesman for the Big Basin Lumber Company, agreed to shade off the price to $80 per acre, S0 says one of the advisory committee members. At this rate a clean cut was made of ,000 from the price asked at the time The Call began to look into the real value of the basin timber lands, for which it has since been abundantly abused by cer- tain newspapers .and individuals. The tract, for which §20,000 was to be paid by the State if the Commissioners agreed to give the lumber company's price, com- prised 2500 acres. 1t s ascertained that some of the best of this land was bonded for $40 per acre by the company. The commission has not decided to take any particular tract for a park. The Commissioners and advisory committee visited only that part of thé basin that has been opened up by trails, the re- mainder being inspected by the timber ex- perts employed by the commission. One of the gentiemen of the offictal party say: that there are several conditions prece- dent to the acceptance of the land One is that both Santa Cruz and Santa Clara counties shall construct roads to the basin. Another is that enough land shall be acquired in addition to the tract now marked out by the Big Basin Lumber Company to make the exterior boundaries symmetrical. The lumber people offer now to furnish 700 acres in addition to the original tract. The Commissioners be- lleve that it will be possible to acquire 1800 acres more at a rate of about $10 per acre. If this could be accomplished the State would have a park of 5000 acres in- stead of one of 2300 acres, and all for the price that it has been proposed to charge for 2500 acres. The official party that vis- ited the Big Basin included the following named: Commissioners—Governor Gage, Rev. Father Kenna, Professor Dudley of Stanford Uni. versity, A. W, Foster and W. H. Mills. Ad- visory committee—N. P. Chipman, J. B. Ham- mond, Drury Meloné, Hervey Lindley and W. W. Van Arsdale. The commission will meet soon to re- cefve the report of the timber experts. No proposition will be considered that does not Include possession by the State of the west fork of the Waddell Creek within the park boundaries. Condolence by Austrian Society. At a meeting of the Austrian Benevo- lent Society held recently the following resolutions were adopted: Whereas, Throughout this great domain the true liberty loving citizen 1s bowed down in grief through the death of our beloved Presi- dent, Willlam McKinley, who met his untimely end through the hands of a cowardly assassin, the despised anarchist; therefore be it Resolved, By the Austrian Benevolent Socloty that they deeply deplore the great loss which this nation has sustalned and join our fellow citizens (n denouncing anarchism and its teach- ings and condemning the dastardly act In tak- ing the life of him Who has advanced this na- tion to the head of all nations of this universe as cowardly and a blow at liberty and freedom; and be It further Resolved, That we tender our sincere condo- lence to the stricken widow and relatives of our deceased President With an earnest wish that they may long be spared to enjoy the confidence and respect of a grieving and grateful people; and be it further Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions be published in the daily papers of this city; and De It fhrther Resolved, That the Austrian Benevolent So. clety m{}hurn- its meeting until Wednexday, October 1, out of respect to our martyred Presi: dent, Willlam MeKinley. M, SCANATICH, President. DE WITT W. TOLL, Recording Secretary, Here to Compile Statistics. Investigation to Begin on Sacramento River Im- mediately. Cloud Rutter, scientific istant of the United States Fish Commission, has been sent to this coast for the purpose of in- vestigating the habits of salmon. He has established headquarters on the Sacra- mento River, near Rio Vista, and is al- ready at work. The rate of migration ot salmon and their loss of weight in swim- | ming from the river mouths to spawning grounds have been a subject for much un- official study by both the State and Na- tional commissions for the last two years, and Mr. Rutter will gather the necessary material for statistics. The adult fish will be caught by means of gill nets. Their weight will then be determined to the third of an ounce. After the fish have been branded with numerals on the right operculum they will be lib- erated and will be retaken at the spawn- ing grounds, where they will be again weighed. Comparison with the previous figures will determine the exact loss of weight on the trip. tinue his work throughout the season ‘r‘}h“e the salmon are running at Rio | sta. This s the first official. inquiry which has been made into the subject, and re- sults will be watched for with a great deal of interest by those engaged in pisca- torfal study.
