The Source ofthe Water Conclusively KHtahllHlied. The expedition sent out by the San I'Yuneisco H\amiuor to discover the source of the water now pouring Into the Snlton desert In southern California , concluded its work and proved that the Hood comes from the Colorado rivor. The story of the trip is as follows : "About ilflccn miles below Yuuuv the water poured through many channels into the desert. There was a bar form ing on the river , and It scorns probable that nt this point the Colorado will eventually change Its channel and throw an immense volume of water in to the desert.Vo found the water twelve feet deep in the channel running from the rivor. There was watorail over the country us far as we could see , interspersed by innumerable islands covered with mosquito trei'A This bottom tom is a great cattle country , but the vnqueros now wear life preservers , and hard bv keep a boat. Soon the party Came to the old Uuttorlleld stage road between Ytimn and San Diego ; that was covered with eighteen foot of water , and the stream was l00 ! yards wide. Wo travelled westward , the stream chang ing in width and depth , and frequently the whole country being converted into a huge lake whore it was doprcbscd. Finally , on Sunday our boat entered Now river , after going through a suc cession of lakes , through which the nr.titi current kept its course. "At noon wo found a break in the sandhill hunks of our stream , and it turned abruptly at right angles , flowing duo north , while for ton miles back wo were running east. The break was 200 yards wide ; the stream was seven foot deep and llowing swiftly. Tills is the break that throws the water upon the desert. After going a short distance from the crevasse , the water spread out over a vast extent of country and was very swift and shallow , but about three miles to the north we came to a point where all the water in the country seemed to come together , and rushed down into a thirty-foot channel , forming small falls. The water below the falls was ton foot deep , and the current six miles an hour. Big stre uns now ran intc our channel every 00 yards. We then passed numerous lakes , nnd finally struck a channel through the sandhills , where the water was deep nnd swift. The bunks were from thirty to four hun dred feet high , perfectly perpendicular , and looked like the palisades on the II tuition. "It wns the old channel of the Colorado rado , when it used to run into the dos- ort. Those high banks caved olT con tinually and created swells , which filled our boat with water. At ono place n piece of bank thirty feet high and UOO yards long fell in a minute nftot wo had passed alongside it. The noise was like the reverberation of a cannon. I don't believe this part of the country was over travelled by a whits man before. For miles wo Van over rough water , our boat danced like a cork. Hero and there were indications that the water Had been six icot nignor man tnat no- low. Wo struck a whirlpool that rolled our boat over a few times and spoiled all our pro visions except some canned goods ana beans. Wo had everything tied in the boat. On Monday wo ran into a vast lake , probably twenty miles square , and we were sure that it was Salton lake and that our journey was nearly over. In the midst of the lake was a channel , lined by half-submerged mosquito trees. Wo ran twenty miles along this largo river and turned out into a good chan nel ; but still no Salton. "After going about four miles down this lust channel , the banks bogim to grow higher and higher , and presently wo heard n great roaring noiso. It was a cataract with a sheer fall of eighteen fool. The only way out of it seemed to bo to inako a portage. This was deferred until morning. Wo un loaded the boat and. took It out of the water. In the mean time Providence intervened. The falls cut the bank below - low the rapids and moved up stream , and in the morning we found the falls a half milo up stream , and our boat was opposite , in smooth water. Wo hastily lo.uled up , and for just about forty-live miles ran nt a speed such as I never want to go at again. On Tuesday morning , at 0 o'clock , wo left the channel , and at last entered tlio Salton lake. Our boat wns boon stuck in the mud , and for several hours' under a bln/.lng sun , wo woked In mud nnd water ui > to our armpits , moving It along. Finally wo floated It , and reached Salton. The Colorado river is again reported to bo rising , so there is little prospect of the Salton lake dry ing up for some time. "Much of the country wo passed through is unexplored. The water is bringing down an immense quantity of seed , and excellent cuttle food Is spring ing tin everywhere , and the deport will soon bo a good piibturugc. Wo found thousands of carp all along the route. 1 think the ehannol , now it is cut , will always contain wator.oxcept In the very lowest stages of the Colorado river ; and there is a strong probability that the Colorado will form a bar at the crevasse , and that till its wutor will run down hero , and the Soul horn I'aclllu people had bettor prepare to inovo.

THIS IS WORSE THAN PIRACY , Jug-Handled Adjustment of Freight Hates From the Southwest. ARBITRARY ATION OF AN ASSOCIATION. How the Hilli-OKIs : Hope ( o Kill Oin.ilm's l'auklii ImliiHtry to Ho- vivc Kanwn' ; City's Drooping Stoolc Mnrkd , Some cogent and pcrsunMvo reasons , moro tlmn c.in 1)0 ) su posled , ut llrst thought , must Imvo been presented to the representatives of the Southwestern FrclRht utul Steamship association nt the nicotine hclit In Chicago last week , to Induce the members to refuse the request of South Oniahii for n bettor freight rate from the southwest to this point. What those reasons wore bus not boon mentioned. But this one ftet Is patent to all , and conclusive to every fair-minded mnn , that either the association matlo a inlstitko In refusing this equitable und just request or It should have established it mlleago rate on live stock and pacKitiK homo product. The simple question Is thU : All Missouri river rates have a common freight rate to rim nnrtli nml iviut Thn fiYtlaht. nitO. from Kansas City to the north , north \vest , north east and east , iilthoujjh it m.iy pius tno very Kates of Omahu , Is the same per one hun dred pounds as Omaha , while the freight rate * from contiguous grazing territory , differ from $17 tu $ .10 per car In favor of Kansas City and against Omahn. In ether words , a car of live stock costs $17 to $ ! 0 to ship to Omaha from Kansas City , whllo n car of packing house product will be hauled over the sumo track and on the same train for nothing , in case its destination is beyond Omaha. This state of affairs is under control of one freight association. This Is so unjust and onc-sidod that it Is dlnicult for ono to find a reason for the ro- fusal. It Is slmplv a premium of the difference In llvo stock rules In favor of Kansas City , and at the same tlmo throws open the markets for packing house products of both places to Kansas City. Hut it means moro than this to Omaha. The short cattle crops in this section Is likely to serlou ly crlpplo the Omaha pack ing industry. The demand now greatly exceeds the receipts of certain grades of cat tle , and even now train loads of cattle are received daily from other yards to moot the local demand. Fully if > , U3U cattle woroneeded last year and moro than IW.OOl ) cattle will be needed this year to supply the demands on local packers. Ono packing house manager opunly announces that if the cattle bo not shipped in to this market either because of bettor freight rates and shipping laciltties or of larger receipts from adjacent territory , that h will bo compelled to build slaughter- inir houses whore the stock can bo procured. This is necessary to supply the demands on the house. Larger local r-Jouipts cannot now bo expected. The action wassimply a stab at and ii great injustice to Omaha , There would have boon at least consis tency in the association had it made a mile age rate to and from each of the packing centers , but to deliberately shut Omaha out of the stock fields bv exorbitant freight rates , and then to open up the consumption markets by a common freight rate , has all the ele ments of Algerian piracy without even the extenuating grounds of self interest.

There was a peculiar little scene wit- nohsutl by a small party of gentlemen on the bench at Manawa a few days ago. A young man , apparently about UllyeaVs of ago , dressed in a drab suit , his face adorned with a thin light mustache , wandwed to and fro alung the beach , keeping well In. the roar of the crowd of spectators. Ho watched the bathers keenly , and at length boomed to have found the person ho was searching for. \Vitha movement that attracted the attention of three gentlemen near him , he waved his handkerchief toward one of the boulevard pavilions , and In re sponse a lady dressed in black , with a well rounded form , pretty face and light hair , hurried to him. "Yonder" was the only word the young mnn bald , as the lady joined uim and , still shielding himself anil his companion behind a group of people who were Ignorant of what was transpiring , ho pointed to a man and woman reclining ou the sivud In bathing costume. The man wns n handsoino young follow wltli full ( lark board. The woman wns n brunette wlth dark nnd ' " oycs hnlK' , There was n wnisporod consultation between the yotinrranaii and his sister , for their relationship was evident from the cant of their fcMUrcs , and the youth , at the risk of wetting his patent leath ers , hurried down , | b wlicro the couple were resting in blissful ignorance on the edge of the water , One of the trio of gentlemen who hiuK boon the solo wit ness In the crowd'of the incident , leis urely followed , butwithout displaying any evidence that he was watching the denouement.

Ho stooped and whispered some thing hurriedly to his companion. IIo nodded carelessly nnd the two men walked away. In an instant they were fueo to face with the blonde young lady n black. "Annlo , what does this moan ? " was the startled interrogation , in a low tone , as the older of the two faced the lady.

For years the habitues of the water front have observed the bent figure of an aged woman tramping day in and day out , through rain or sunshine , along the wharves , suys the Sail Francisco Chronicle. Ilor usual course is from iMoigg's wharf to 'tho Merchant's dry dock , where her journey ends. For hours then she sits on a stringer or pile of lumber and gazes' wistfully out over the bay. She iuvurl/ibly carries an um brella. The old woman never speaks to any ono , but when addressed she makes the reply , "I am waiting for Lou , my little girl Louise and her baby. " Of course she is a lunatic , a harmless ono , but it is a singularly sad case. Her name is Mrs. Terrence and she lives somewhere on Rinc&n Hill. The story of her sorrow was related by Joe Giuste , the gatekeeper at'- the Oregon dock. Ton or twelve years .ago Mrs. Torrcnco had i' , home , a husband and a beautiful daughter named Louise , then seventeen years old. Ono day there arrived in port a British tramp steamer , and among the crow was a sailor with whom the girl somehow became acquainted. Ho was not an or dinary Jack Tar wedded to navy plug and lost without the odor of tarred ropo. IIo was a well built younjr chap , with dark oycs and soft curly mustache , and when ho was otT duty ho wont ashore in his store clothes and white shirt. The romantic girl fell in love with the hand some young sea rover , nnd ono day when the tramp steamer sailed for Australia Louise was missing. Investigation showed that she had eloped with the sailor , having taken passage in the atoorago of her lover's ship. Her parents were distracted , and in loss than a year the father died of grief and drink , and then the girl's mother , doubly bereft , was stricUon down with a fever. Ono day Mrs. Terrence received n letter - tor bearing a New Zealand postmark. It was from her wayward daughter , who told a pitiful lalo of how she had been deserted by her lover , who had failed to kcop his promise to make her his wife. She begged her mother's forgiveness and said she wanted to como homo and bring her baby with her. The mother sent a reply by the next steamer for her daughter to return with her fatherless baby , and she oven sent a little money all she had to help pay the homeward passage. Weeks passed , nnd finally came the tidings that the ship on which her daughter had taken passage had boon wroekodon tlu AuUralUia coast , a.i I th.it ho ( ! iiightor aid the baby were among the lost. The shock caused brain fever , and when the old worn in recov ered her intellect was impaired. For a long time she called daily at the numer ous wharves and plaintively asked if the ship on which her daughter sailed had arrived. On receiving a reply in the negative the hoai-t-broken mother would go away saying : "I will bo back tomor- roiv ; maybe she will como then. " After a while she ceased to inquire for Lli3 ship , but os-or since she has made the rounds of the wharves every day. scan ning closely the faces of those who ar rive on incoming vessels. She shakes lior head mournfully as she wanders through the crowds and along the dusty wharves. Her favorite hauntis near the Drogon dock and Uin" .

THE PRESENT STOCKS ALMOST NOTHING. A llrolccr | ) | ( MISHOM the Situation In Wall Street an Viewed by Him The Outlook an Hopeful. The Importation of ribbons for the fall season have been loss than has been known for years past , says the Now York Kcomo- inist. Goods that are Intended for consump tion in America In 'ho fall are largely shipped from the foreign marltets during the second qtmrler of the year April , May and JIIIIP. Wo sco by the consular reports that the exportattons from St. Ktlcnno for these thrco months In 1MH ) were about $ : > rr.,000 , while for the same time In IS'.U ' they amount to about $ ti'iKW. ( When wo tulto Into con sideration the fact that the prospect for ribbons this full Is much bettor than for last fall , II is evident that the demand which now exists must bo supplied by our domestic looms. The stocks of Imported novelties on the marliet for the coining season uru almost nothing. A few houses with good connec tions and lots of cuuniKO have Imported a very moderate quantity of novelties. It would hu too late , now that the demand Is e.Htab'Isheil ' , to order for our market , utrl wo predict for our Idle looms prolltublo employ ment at a very early duto. A year ago nt this tlmo our marital was under the cloud uf an enormous stock of plain goods in the hands of commission houses. This stock has boon entirely liqui dated , and the looms have been kept Idle until thev eould bo run for n prollt. Thn re sult Is that buyers are compelled today to Day a modest prolit for the poods wai'tod , Thn question of the hour Is : "What will bo wanted for the coming season ? " 'I he dry goods merchants uro buvlng their lines of nlain goods in small quantities , reasserting their colors and pushing out thesnmploeards with their travelers. After the llrst week's trade they will b i compelled toordor largely. The buyers ot millinery ribbons have been very conservative. During AInv and .lune most of them , to begin their season , placed small orders for what they call staple goods , nnd they are now looking earnestly through the market for the novelties that uro sure to bo wanted. Many of the pattern bonnets .shown this season nro trimmed with doublo- face satins , but it is well known that this elms of goods was carried In stock in Paris , ami tnov nro put on the bonnets simply to got rid of the old stock , in no way indicating thu coming fashion. The real novelties existing today arc wldo satin ninrvclllciix , with broche olTocts , in [ .er- foctly natural llowors , such as pansles , lilacs , cornflowers , crysanthemums , orchids , daisies , etc. , etc. Some beautiful oITects are Im ported in medallion and embroidery mato- lasse styles in douched flowers and in cash mere. Ombro cITcets are a llttlo spoken of , but wo have no confidence In them for the fall. Jn winter colorings they nro entirely too loud for the American taste. Plain ef fects in cnmieux colorings , Jacqunrd styles , stripes with embroidery effects , serge and satin , are among the styles in demand. Plain failles in good qualities are much sought. Satin nnd velvets continue in fair demand , which would be moro apparent in our Now York market were it not for the lurpo stocks in the hands of the jobbers. When these stocks arc sold , the pnco must ndvn'ire very seriously. The demand for black faille with satin edges continues steady , especially for the better qualities. Colored satin and" vel vets nro slow , but are used regularly. While the buyers of ribbons are remark ably conservative , \vo beliuvo the prospect for this line of goods is bettor than it has been for a long tlmo past , but before manu facturers can have a prolltublo season , like 1S7S. the state of nITntr.s that has existed for two or three years must bo reversed , and the demand be greater than the supply. WAI-I , STIIUKT noraruL. Whatever may bo the actual conditions pre vailing in Wall street it must bo admitted that the street Is not lacking In hopo. A prominent broker commenting on the situa tion remarks that it would seem Impossible' that the low rating of Mocks in tno market could continue for innnydajs more in the face of unquestioned facts , facts which no ono feels called upon to controvert. While the present conditions existing in a dull sea son have produced consequences that nre reasonable to exnoct , the brightness of the future must reflect a very different state of affairs nt that moment when the present an ticipations begin to bo realized. The constant tendency of a dull market is downward. With no demand for stocks , it Is evident that there must bo constant offers from men whoso circumstances indicate the effect of temporary pressure , and wnilo the selling is on the part ot the weak the buying is mndo by the stronir. It will bo very difllciilt to see how such a market as exists at present can continue when the movement of wlieat.nlready begun , grows larger this month. It seems Impossi ble to conceive ot n condition of affairs in which railroads nro reporting largo earnings , larger than in previous years , while stocks nra quoted far below the low r.uige of last year. It would bo a condition In which the most potent factor operating upon the value of stocks would seem to bo eliminated the earning power of the stock Itself. It is impossible that increased oain- ing newer should not bo accompanied by In creased values of stocks In the market. While great earning power is evident and being exhibited by the properties affected , the owners of their stocks , by reason of the stringent conditions , feel constrained to part with their properly for a smaller considera tion than they would rightfully command. The markets in other countries , however , will have nn influence , unaffected by loc.il conditions , nnd will lend their assistance in establishing prices upon a higher range. It is very certain that , aside from all circum stances now affecting the market , und de spite them , during the next three months the values and prices of stocks will advance , and the advance- will have in it many of the ele ments of firmness.
