The Bar Association of San Francisco, to which the Supreme Court some weeks ago referred the matter of the charge that had been advanced upon the calendar of the Court through the influence of a boss, Chris. Buckley, has reported. The Association finds that Buckley did use influence with attorneys in the cases to have two certain causes substituted as to date of hearing for other cases having precedence, and thus earlier decisions of the cases were had, and that lor such service Buckley received the plump sum of $500. the Association Ends that no member of the Court was concerned in the transaction, or Wits cognizant it.

The Association finds also that the City and County Attorney, Mr. Cowdery, took the appeals in the cases, the city being defendant in them. After his retiraeyfrom the office, he informed the plaintiff's attorney thai there was a point in the cases, not" then made known, which was fatal the plaintiffs action-. Thereupon he accepted retaining fee from the plaintiff) binding him not to lie retained by the city and not to disclose the fatal point, and the plaintiff's attorney, Whittemore, was a party to the transaction, and paid over the money. 1 licse act- the Association holds to be in of court a- to JJnckley and those he dealt with, and it advise- the Supreme Court to cite the boss, the plaintiff Bonnet, a party named Taylor, to whom lie had transferred the claims en which the actions were based, as security for money advanced, before the Curt to be pmished far contempt.

The Association proflers the Court a asavnittee of lawyers to consult with the "and Bteoapt proceedings. They advise that Cawderyand the plantis' attorney, YVhittemore, be citi to show caase wbj they should not be broken Ike bar for unprofessional conduct in regard t.i (he retention of Cowdery in the eases. This is a pretty battle of ash. It is gratifying t-j know that the report dean away the faintest suspicion that may have been entertained of the Goort having any I'irt in the matter. it is equally gratifying to know that the lawyers of Sax) Francisco have the courag.

condemn eoadnct, aad to hold some of their own mesobera to examination for what appears to be scaly proceeding. Worse by far than the pretension of Buckley that lie toold procure an early from the Court, i- the charge that tie ex- City Attorney took ie uot at sm a point fatal to the case of one suing the itv which he had but lately served aa an sit.rney. If she knowledge he had of the he acquired as the people's repre- sjntative, it was worse than unprofessi i il for him to secrete it. True, he was not City Attorney when the appals were heard, bat he took the appeals, and presumably Chen knew of the point that would prove f.ittil to plaintiff's case, if it was raised in the Supreme hurt. lie had, therefore, no to accept a fee uot to disclose that This i- the judgment i own association, and if it is confirmed by the Supreme Court he ought to be, and punished, IJtit until the Court finds this charge by the Association to verity, any judgment must be hypothetical.

For the sake of the profession it is to be hoped that the lawyer- implicated by the report may be able to exculpate themselves when brought to the bar. But upon the assumption that Ike association is correct in its finding of BSCta and it- condemnation of Whittemore and Cowdery it is difficult to conceive any escape for them, except it may be through the inadequacy of the law to meet their cants. If that shall prove to be the case a note should be made of the Weak spot in the statute, that it may Ik- corrected by the next Legislature. The report of the Bar Association will go a long way to dignify the bar of San I'raucisco, and command respect from the people for the profession, than which there is no other with -o many sacred tru-ls and nir other that needc to adhere more closely to a rigid code of moral ethics. CHINA ESTOPPED.

The New York Pren of yesterday, say tin- dispatches, expresses the hope that the Chinese Consul will push his claim for indemnity for the Itock Springs massacre. It believe- that by that mean-, and a large sum being paid, the blackguards and scoundrels who perpetrated the outrage will be soonest convinced of the inutillty of their sport That the criminals who mobbed and killed the Chinese should be punished to the rail extent of the law, no one will gainsay. Hut the New York Steals correct when it says that it was an assault of one daSB foreigners upon another class of foreigners, and that the chiefest concern of the United States ithat it happened upon our soil. We Mane time ago pointed out that the rovernment cannot held re possible to the extent of paying China life indemnity for the Chinese Government itself has set the precedent of-refusal, (n the case of the massacre of foreigners in China in 1873, in which several Americans perished, the Chinece (iovernmenl answered in damage- for all property destroyed, but flatly refused to moke good our demand for Indemnity for American lives lost based that refusal upon what it claimed to be principles of international law, and after some years of protesting tin- American Government acquiesced, and the rule between the Governments may thus be accepted as settled. By it China i- estopped from making the claim the Press i- anxious see swelled to startling proportions.

The diplomatic correspondence regarding the massacre ni" 1873 will be produced whenever tin- Chinese representative prefers his demand, and it will effectually and at once close his mouth. Bui even" if the claim should be held good, and the liability uf tins Government admitted, how can the payment of a large sum to China in act as a restraining influence upon such men in tin- labor rank-: as resort to brute force to drive out Chinese workers? The hv.r-den of payment would not fall upon them would not feel, even indirectly, the punishment such a draft upon the public funds would inflict. Indeed, it is safe to say that such of the country would lie taken by them to be helpful to their cause, tending to rouse the people again-; Chinese labor, as the root of the whole matter. Men who mob Chinese and murder them are not sensitive to any -in punishment of the public treasury as that proposed. The criminal Court, the dungeon and the rope alone have terrors for their kind.

Tin-: French diplomats are probably cor. rect in their view of the outbreak in Boumelia, that it will unite England and France, for the rising is a- they estimate unquestionably a scheme that has for its ultimate the partition of Turkey, and that there is some flame for this smoke is evidenced by the full in international serarities that set in upon the announcement of the resolution, Turkish shares declining from two to live percent It is quite significant, too, that the event should excite jubilation in Russia. Before the close of the week we shall probably know precisely what the policy of England will be in the matter, and it is not too much to expect from that quarter a protest. Wk place no credence in the Btory that St. John has been promised by the Administration anything lie wants in the way of removals and appointments.

I'resident Cleveland is not a fool, and the idea that he would farm out Federal in the west to St. John to enable the latter to punish his enemies is simply rot. The gossips of tin- aews should send something over the wiles having the tinge of probability. Mercury for Vineyards. F.

W. Morse, Special Inspector for the iQculturaJ Commission, lias been experimenting with the mercurial mixture as a remedy for phylloxera. He has sent three communications toC. A. Wetmore.

Chief Executive iticultural Officer, detailing bis experiments and the results. The vineyard on which were conducted is one mile cast from Sonoma. The soil is a strong, dark loam, four to eight feet deep and shading gradually into a gravelly subsoil. The vines, of the old Mission variety, were eight feet apart and infected in such a manner that only a part of each small plot treated by the different methods was nobcably affected by the phylloxera. Eighteen plans of treatment were" tried, differing in the amount of mixture applied or the manner of ils application.

In the experiments basins were dug about the trunk and roots oi the vine, and the mercury in varying quantities mixed with soil put therein. No positive effect was noticeable and a further application of the mixture in furrows run between the vines was also with. iv( result The experiment was varied by plowing furrows close to the vine-, running double furrows, cross furrows, varying the amount of the mixture used putting some of it on the surface of the ground, but with no noticeable resnli The phylloxera continued as abundant as usual with some dead insects occasionally found. An application iv crowbar hole's six inches from the vine and twenty-four inches deep as next tried, and subsequent examination showed a colony of insects with a number dead and injured, apparently poisoned from the same spot on the there was no ajipa-ent effect, Boom of tbe Mission vines were taken up. replaced by Chasselaa and rooted cuttings, ami these subjected to like treatment, but the phylloxera appeared.

Sax Fr.ovi.sco, September Joseph Hansing, a German, 50 years old, committed suicide this morning near the corner of Fourth and Minna Streets, by shooting himself in the head.

The revolver with which he did the deed is a large U-caliber Smith Wesson, and the lullet passed through the skull, scattering his brains about in a sickening manner, and then found its way into a bakery near by, but fortunately did no damage. The man is supposed to have been insane, as he left a letter, written in very that certain parties were after his life that they hail attempted to kill him several times, and that lie was better oil' dead than in Buch misery, hence bis suicide.

At Woodward's Gardens yesterday afternoon there were two balloon ascensions, which seemed to delight the many spectators of the alleged race. The Eclipse, in charge of Professor J. H. Whiteside, and containing liO.OOO feet of gas, rose about o'clock. Seven minutes later the I'ily of London, in charge of Professor P.

van Tassell, started after it. The balloons took a southeasterly coarse over the Bay. Professor P. A. Van came to a landing about 6 o'clock.

Speaking of the trip to a Post reporter, he said I used my ballast as economically as I oould, but about o'clock, when the sun went down, the gas seemed to collapse, and down the balloon came. We were over water at the time and 1 said to myself. 'I may as well gel my clothes and I did. Well, I went into the water, and made up my mind to stay by her. She dragged me about a mile in the water, sometimes putting me under, and at last 1 made a landing in good shape near Mount Eden.

The people around there were all very kind to me. I got the balloon on to a wagon all right, and this morning reached Woodward's Gardens. I lost sight of Whiteside's balloon about half an hour before I landed, and am somewhat nervous about him. He had the best balloon. I built her myself, and will guarantee to go 1,000 miles in her in any sort of current." The balloon Eclipse, containing Professor Whiteside ami ('.

Nve, landed several miles from the city, on the ranch of Captain C. Scott, located on the line of the railroad In getting out of the balloon when it struck the ground, Professor Whiteside wrenched his ankle, and his companion injured one of his feet slightly. They report having had a pleasant P. Past, September 21st. Del Norte county has just discovered that for some time past it has had no Auditor Recorder, Tax Collector or Public Administrator, owing to the neglect of the Supervisors to declare, by ordinance, that the duties of those oiiicers should be performed by ether county officers.

"RECORD-UNION MELANGE. The Sacramento political tree has been shaken and R. D. Stephens gets the Postolfice jilume. The Chicaco Mail says that a Chicago criminal never iceis entirely safe until he learns that his case has been placed in the hands of a detective." That may be sufficient assurance with crooked over East, but in San Francisco it doesn't compare with being solid with the police." The report of extended experiments with mercury as a remedy for phylloxera is given in another column, and shows that this specific is entirely ineffectual.

This will destroy the much cherished hope of vinegrowers a means had been lound whereby the greatest enemy of the vine was to be overcome. Frank Leslie's last week's illustrated pointedly shows the present situation of the silver question in a cartoon, wherein Uncle Sam has a silver dollar over each eye, and with a very perplexed look is pulling his beard, and at the same time holds up a placard, upon which are the words I am silver blind, l'lease assist me." The Albany says: The An is again asking Why should a Congressman be buried at public expense? 1 The Sun must not be too critical. The burial of some Congressmen is a great public duty and pleasure." The Tima has evidently been reading the California papers upon American Congressmen of foreign citizenship. The attention ot ail politicians will be turned to the Empire State today, where the Republican State Convention is to be held. The nomination for Governor is a tempting bait, and numerous candidates are willing to serve their party, hut concerning which, such cool-headed men as Senator Evarts and others of his are seeking to find a man rather than a candidate.

The position Postmaster of Sacramento, to which Mr. Stephens was yesterday appointed by President Cleveland, is a. highly comfortable one, and which he will enjoy fora term of lour peradventare, a Republican President should be elected in 1888, upon civil service platform, by aui of Democratic mugwumps, in which case his place might lie sooner wanted for some good, faithful Republican. The irrepressible lon I'iatt has published in pamphlet form a letter he recently wrote to President Cleveland, entitled civil Service its Bot and its Remedy." It is an elaborate plea to convince the President that, although he was elected by Mugwumps, upon the civil service idea, the Democrats who also voted for him hail no idea that civil service reform was to keep hungry Democrats out of office and sleek Republicans in. "Tbu devil whs ni, the devil a saint would be, Ihe devil got well, the devil a saint was he.

What the Gold Has Cost. The RecobD-TJhIOH says: "One billion and a quarter nf dollars iii gold gone to augment the wealth ol the nation out of the gold mines of the Sierm. In wresting it from the Pactolean. streams of the hills ami the bowels of the mountains, man has BO modified the processes of nature as to work threat damage to the navigable streams of California. It is dear, therefore, that the nation owes it to honest ami just dealing with California to care for these injured free highways, ami restore them to and preserve their navigable integrity." The gold which has come out of the Sierra has not remained in California.

It lia.s not remained in tbe bands of the men who took it from the ground. It has been passed into the channels of commerce all over the civilized world. But, unfortunately, the earth from which this gold baa been washed remains in the State. It is spread over thousands of acres of land in the upper part of tbe Sacramento valley, and has gradually moved down into the rivers and bays leading to the ocean. Must of the is gone, but the of the debris remains.

We .1" say dial tbe world owes California anything for the sold taken out nf mountains. That has been purchased Once al its market value. It now belongs entirely to the persons who have possession of' it. Bui in permitting this gold be mined, California conferred upon the world a great benefit. The interests of the State would have been served if hydraulic minim; bad been stopped as Boon as its destructive character was demonstrated.

It would have been better not to wait until the rivers were su full thai an old-fashioned rainstorm is certain cause an overflow. But the demand for gold was insatiate, and the Sierra was one of the few localities where gulil could be mined with profit. The State is now confronted with the consequences of permitting hydraulic mining to be prosecuted its results became apparent It' not another cubic foot ot earth should be moved from its bed, the debris now s.attered between the mines and the navigable portion of the river is sufficient for its destruction. Stopping hydraulic mining should he followed immediately by a well devised system of reclamation. The cost of the work necessary to Bave iln 1 river cannot be closely estimated, but it will reach into the millions.

The nation appropriate from its treasury money to remove obstacles from rivers, smaller streams and harbors, to create water-ways, deepen harbors, ami in other ways facilitate transportation. Some millions are being spent now on New York Harbor, and other millions on the Mississippi. The expectation that the Same beneficent Government will lend a helping band when our needs are made known to Congress will, we arc confident, be San Francisco Call, September 18th. A colored man at Los Angeles stopped a runaway team of stallions the other day by grabbing their bits ami himself astride the end of the pole, where he cluiiu' until the team was stopped. In the carriage were a lady and her child, her husband having left her there while he went tci transact some business.

The runaway was all the more dangerous, as it occurred on the network of tracks at the railroad depot, but the bravery of the colored man was only rewarded with a word instead ni in some more tangible manner.
