The French bark Bebin Chevaye, which ar- rived in yesterday, damaged her rudder when rounding the Horn, and had to put into Jaltal, Chile, for repairs. Captain Lecriox says that when off the cape he ran into a succession of gales that lasted for twenty-eight days, dur- ing which time the accident to her rudder e safled from Taltal November 19. e was 173 days from Cardiff and fifty- three days from Taltal. She brings 2090 tons of coal to J. J. Moore & Co. S Titania Stopped on Way South. e Norweglan steamer Titania, bound from smith to San Diego, was stopped when twenty-five miles off the harbor and ordered into this port. The reason for this was that there is a_shortage of coal here, and as the Titania had some bsa tons on board the own- , the Western Fudl Company, had a watch on her by tie different tugs and pilots’ John Hy: Merchants' day morning and & tug wel intercepted as she nearing Point Pedro, Satausontancs Sees Derelict. The British ship Andora arrived in late last night. Captain Richards reports that on Oc- 29, in latitude 56 27 south and longitude 67 12 west, he saw the blackened hulk of the British ship Dendreath Castle, which took fire t wea and was deserted by her crew early last year. The Andora ran terrible hurricanes when off. the Horn and was driven back 150 miles. She was 160 daye from Newcastle, England, She is consigned to Girvin & Eyre. ilidastini . SN Detained by Gale. The Oceanic Steamship Company's steamer Alameda, which left her dock Saturday at 11 & m. bound for Honmolulu, was detained off Meiggs whar! by the gale until 7 a. m. yes- terday. The steamer Peru, bound for Ancon, wal aiso compelied to drep anchor and spend the night in the bay. She put to sea yesterday morning. R Gales Off the Cape. The Norwegian ship Hovding arrived in port yesterday, 165 days from Newcastle, England. Captzin Hansen reports that when he arrived off Cape Horn he ran into a succession of southwest gales that kept bim thirty-five da; in that vicinity before he was able to get his_ship around. The Hovding brings merchandise to Bal- tour, Guthrie & Co. Blown Up the Bay. The steward of the pilot boat Gracle 8 started to go ashore in a yawl late Saturday, with the intention of landing at Meiggs whart. The gale was blowing s0 that he was ewept up to Hunters Point, where he landed early morning. He had lost all con- trol of the boat, ol SRR New Liner Arrives. The French steamer Amiral Duperre, Cap- tain Bernjer, being the second of the Char- geurs-Reunis liners to come to this port, reached here yesterdny. She was rty-one Adavs from Shangha! and twenty = days and seven hours from Yokohama. She brings 300 tone of merchandise to George W. McNear. SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE. ARRIVED. 4 Sunday, January 14.

The amateur gum shoe art- ist was arrested last night at the corner of Sutter and Leavenworth streets by Policeman Droulette. ‘When Haas arrived at the City Prison he had enough false hair on his face to stuff a mattress. Though the beard may be legally classed as false, there is noth- ing deceptive about it. It is frankly arti- ficlal. Even in the lamplight it loomed up as an appendage that belonged to neither fish, flesh nor fowl. For three nizhts Haas has been haunt- ing the nélfghborhood of Sutter and Leav- enworth streets, Iven while the heavy wind of Saturday night tossed his false hirsute appendage about in wild dis- array he stuck to his post. He wes on the trail of his missing spouse.. He was waiting for that hour of triumph when she would approach him unsuspectingly. When she saw those whiskers she would exclaim “Who are you?” “Oily Fread, the detective,” he would re- ply, and tear off the mattress. Then she would see that the game was up and accompany you back to, Coney Island a willing prisoner. In liepmldil of his reverie a hand fell upon his shoulder. The hand belonged to Policeman Droulette, who is something of a gum shoe man himself. “Who are you?’ asked the policeman, “iOily Fred, the detective,” replied Haas. “Cut that out and come along,” ordered the policeman, and Haas was haled be- fore Lieutenant Wright at the Central Police Station. He told the lieutenant the pathetic tale of his search for his missing | wife. He assured the lieutenant that he | meant no harm by donnifg the minlature { hair mattress, that the decoration was | put on solely to aid him in his search. Lieutenant Wright sent Droulette out again to investigate the man’s story. The policeman saw Haas' landlady at %1 Post f street and learncd that the story was | true in the main, Aefier Haas swore to wash off the hair mattress and to give up amateur gum shoeing he was permitted to go. The wind moaned weirdly through the whisk- | ers as he sadly made his way down Kear- ny street. —_— e | NBW SET OF OFFICERS | FOR DELEGATES OF LABOR }'l‘hnle Aceredited to the San Francisco | Counefl Will Hold Their Election on Janunary 26. =B A new set of officers is to be elected | by the delegates accredited to the San | Franciseo Labor Council this month. | William’ T.

Deal for Large 'Hydraii;lic Property in Trinity County Reported. The facts concerning magmesite in Call fornia have just been made plain by Charles G. Yale, who has written a bulle- tin for the United States Geological Sur- vey, with the captlon of “The Production of Magnesite.” = California remains the sole producer of the mineral in the United States. The quantity credited to Califor- nia is small, to date, It is still necessary to #mport the mineral from Europe, main- ly from Austria and Greece. “The calcined magnesite,” so writes Mr. Yale, “generally in the form of briek, is now universally recognized as the best| cisco have been inspecting the prop- | material for lining basic open-hearth fur- naces and cement kilns. It may be used to advantage wherever high temperature and chemical reactions are usually detri- mental to dolomite, €hromate and silica brick. The carbonig acid gasmakers of San Francisco use about 1000 tons of mag- necite a year. The wood-pulp mills of California_and Oregon use the calcined magnesite.”” The following Interesting facts are sup- plicd by Mr. Yale regarding magnesite deposits in this State: “In California the following occurpences may be noted: In Alameda County the King magnesite mine is about twenty-two miles southeast of Livermore, on the Ar- royo Mocha road. There is also a small | undeveloped deposic twenty-four miles | southeast of Livermore, on the Arroyo Mocha Canyon. In Mendocino County the Vassar claim is twellve miles north of. Cloverdale, near the line of the Califor- nia Northwestern Napa County ¢ has several oceu The Mathal mines, north and sof are owned by Frank Mathal of Chi and have been worked to a snfall extent within & few years past. The 'mining was done by means of open cuts. *The North mine is in Soda Creek Can- yon and the South in Greasy Camp Creek. The Prest ming, in Chiles Valley, thir- teen miles from Rutherford, has been opened at several places, but has been idle five or six years. The deposit owned by E, T. Russell of Chiles, fifteen miles from Rutherford, has prodyced a small quantity. The Snowflake, eleven miles from Rutherfqrd, was worked for about twelve years and was very productive during that perfod, ylelding, in fact, near- ly all the magnesite produced in the State. mainly fu the form of tunnels. The oc- currence is in a series of ledges in a ser- pentine formation. “The Stanley and Bartlett mines, twelve miles from Rutherford, are on the prop- erty of the Phelan estate, and were pro- ductive for some ten years, though they are now idle. The White Rock mine, if- teeh miles 1) Rutherford, is owned by . B. Duval Lidell and the Western Carbonic Acid Gas Company of San Fran- cisco. The deposit was opened in 1594 and continued to produce for five years. -The deposit owned by J. C. Sullenger of Oak: ville, Napa County, is in Pope Valley, twenty miles by road from Rutherford. PLACER ALSO HAS MINERAL. “In Placer County there are extensive undeveloped deposits in the mountainous regions about Damascus, on the Forest 11l divide. They are too far from a rail- road and in too rough a country to be at present of much value. There is also an undeveloped deposit near Walkers Pass, Kern County. Near Winchester, in Riv- erside County, the Fireproof Mining and Milling and Manufacturing Company has secured £25 acres of land on which mag- nesite deposits have been found. *“The most recent developments of in- terest in the magnesite industry of Call- fornia are those taking place in the prop- erties of the American Magnesite Com- pany. at Red Mountain. Of the twenty- seven claims of the company nineteen are on Red Mountain on the Santa Clara Lounty side, five in Stanislaus County and eight on Cedar Mountain, in Alameda County. The mines are thirty-two miles goutheast of Livermore, at an elevation of 3350 feet. The magnesite occurs in bold outerops. One of the mines is being opened by a tunnel and upraise into an open -quarry. The ore is to be hauled by traction eugine to Livermore and thence shipped by rail to Oakland, where the manufacturing plants have been. erected. NUMEROUS OTHER MINES. “The A. F. Cochrane mine, near Ma- drone, in Santa Clara County, is idle, not having been worked since 1897. The ‘Weber ranch deposit, in the same county, is on the west side of San Felipe Creek | Valley and is owned by the Bay Cities ‘Water Company. Some little development has beén done. X “Sonoma County has numerous deposits of this mineral. The Creon mine, four miles northeast of Cloverdale, is owned by J. Kolling of San Francisco and has been opened in three places. The Cum- mings deposit, two and a half miles rh Cloverdale, is operated by the Sotoyome Magnesite Company of Healdsburg. Op- erations on the mine were not ~com- menced until the summer of 1905. The Eck- ert ranch deposit is two miles south of Cloverdale. The deposit owned b George Madeira of Healdsburg is eleven miles from that place. The Satoyome Magnesite Company owns a depesit on es. [ | the Norton ranch, on Dry Creek, ten miles northwest of Healdsburg. “Extensive deposits occur three miles northeast of Porterville, in Tulare County, on the first range of foothills, and it is from these that nearly all the magnesite produced in the United States has come for the last few years. Part of the mag- nesite mined is carried by chute and | tramway to the kiln and shipped as mag- nesium oxide, and part is hauled Ly wagon to Porterville and shipped as mag- e. et RIVALS THE LAGRANGE. The first payment on the bond hel by Eastern capitalists on the Paulsen mines at Douglas City, Trinity County, has been made. The sum involved in the purchase is reported to be large. Th ures are not given Ly the par- ties principally concerned. The Redding Searchlight reports that the mines are as large a hydraulic proposition as the famous Lagrange property. : The Paulsen group lies along Trin- jty River, near Douglas City, seven mijes from Weaverville. and ludes the Duttons Creck, Union Hill Last es.

The old south shaft of the New Albady, north of Carters, is about to be opened. It s now down 800 feet. As soon as the water has been taken out a new rower pipe line will be installed pre- paratory to starting up again in full blast. The property was lately deeded to Charles Y. de Lay. The Columbus mine and adjoining property, known as the Cherokee group, situated about two miles trom Carters, are about to be opened. Mining men from San Fran- erty with that view. The Black Hawk mine, situated near Soulsbyville, Iis about to start. The shaft will be sunk to a depth of 180 feet. Many deals are on is Siskiyou County, among them being the following, as re- ported by the Scott Valley Advance: “The Blue Gravel mine, near Yreka, is under bond to H. C. Corliss of Grants Pass, Or. He has a ninety-day optiun on the prop- erty. A Los Angeles company of capi- talists having a verbal option on several val Ll in China Gulch, includ- ing the mine, is about to com- plete & deal for the Hardscrabble claim. The deal was closed January 1, 1906. They have asked for ten days’ extension on the Highland group to make the final ex- amination. If this is granted the new company will take the property and other properties, including the Advance mine. 8everal good ledges of ore were recently discovered on this side of the Balmon Mountain, about six miles from Etna. The parties discovering them did not have time to' develop them this winter on account of the severe weather.”” BIG THINGS IN SHASTA. “Big things are planned by the Great Western Gold Company for 1906, so re- ports the Redding Free Press. ‘‘Among them will be the early installation of a second and larger furnace at the ingot | smelter and the erection of a zinc plant, in which zinc' white will be produced from the fumes of the smeiters. The additional furnace and machinery has already been ordered and. will be shipped during the present month. At a meeting of the stqck- holders of the Great Western held in St. Louis on December 27 the following of- ficers and directors were elected: T. S. Henderson, president; O. E.
