ltOACII GETS A BLACK EYE.
OAKLAND 8AM TltH UOVEHNMENT
CANNOT AVVKl'T Till! DOLVUIN.
It I'allure tn Hlreil, Stanelmet mm Stlffae
Ilrenght Out Very Clear); The Derision of
Uie Nnnl Adtlsery Heard Declared
ta lie of Ne lilrthly Account.
Attomeyaeiior.il Garland has rendered n
decision en the tlirce points rohitUe te the
necoptance of tUe Delphin by the government
mbmlttcd te liltn by Secretary Whitney.
The atterney goneiiil holds that the vessel
cannot be accepted by the secretary of the
navy j that nocenti-nct exlsts between Mr.
Jehn lteacli nnd the government; ami that
the large sum of inoney ruld te him for the
vessel may be rccovnreil. Mr. Gniland
begins by loterrlngto Socretary Whitney's
request ler a legal opinion of the statu? or lite
Delphin. He thou says :
"This vessel, yen Inform me. has been
leunil te be (lofcctlve In tlnce particulars,
two of which nie fundamental: That is te
say, fl), hIie does net ilovelep the power mid
speed which the contract calls ler i (2) who Is
net stanch nnd htlfi enough for the sen iee
exported el her; nnd (3) the gwiernl charnc charnc
ter ofher workmanship docs net cemu up te
the requirements of the contract."
NOT UNOUfllL Sl'liHII.
As te the dereet In tlie nrtlcle of speed, Mr.
Garland holds that the cluuse of the law
under which the vessel Mas built, by the
terms of which a "sea speed or ill teen knots
per hour" Is required, Is a mandatory pro pre pro
vislen which cannot be disregarded.
Iloferring te the prevision that K upon the
trial trip the engines should net ilovelep the
full pew cradled for by the contract, nod the
ratlure should net be due te "dofectlvo work
manship or materials," the ship should be
accented by the Kovermnent. the attorney
general saj's: "Tills nttempt te bind the
Kovernment te take from the contractor's
hands n ship of less pouer nnd speed than
what the net of Cengress )crompterilv re
quires 1, In my opinion, utterly null and
without ellcct. It was te theqmllty or speed
mero than nny ether, that Congress was
looking, as the terms, "dlsp.itch vessel or
cllpper,' used In the ronert of the advisory
beard referred te In the law plainly show.
Congress deemed that the snr iee required a
swilt vessel of aae.i speed if llftecn knets,nnd
It directed such a csel te be contracted for
nnd built. .
" I cannot concelve hew it could be sell sell
etisly urged that the United States nre
bound under the law in question te arcept
from tlie contractor nny ether sort ofvessel
than the ene ordercd by Congress te be built,
namely, a dispatch beat or cllpixir, or n sea
speed or llfteen knots, and the Delphin hav
ing been found net te be a essolef tint
description, ns 1 must assume, it would
neem te lollew- that nothing short or an net or
Congress could nuthorize her acceptance."
NOT IIXOUOU HTIUINCITII ANIJ HTIlTNl'SS.
With regard te the objection that the ossel
is wanting In the necessary strength nnd
stlimcss, the nltorney general says : " If
this dofect exist, as I must nssume, It is
fatal, w bother due te the plans upon which
the vosel w'as built or net, because by the
ninth clnuse el the contract the contractor
and his sureties stipulate that the vessel con
structed tinder this contract shall be sulll sulll
clently strong te carry the armament, equip
ment, coal, steres nnd machinery pro pre
scribed by the naval advisory beard, und
indicated by the annexed dlawlngs
nnd sjioclllcatlens. . , . New It is tee
plain for serious discussion that the con
tractei has, by this covenant, undertaken te
niakoaslilpferaspccillo puipose in nceor nceer nceor
dance with given drawings nnd spcclilci spcclilci
tiens, and has, te all Intents and purposes,
warranted that the ship se agreed te be built
shall be 'suHlclently strong' for that purKsn.
In a word, the contractor, by this covenant,
makes the plans of the luKIsery beard his
"own, and agrees te construct a vessel of sutll sutll
cient strength according te theso plans.
"Manifestly, then, the Delphin, which 1
:un bound te nssume, in view of the report
accompanying your communication, Is any
thing but 'sufficiently stieng,' cannot, ler
this reason alone, be nccopted by you under
the contract, the delect mentioned being
fundamental In character."
The third objection, thatordcrcctle work
manship, the atterney trnneral does net con
sider, as the contractor Is ready and willing
te nuike the vessel sitisfjetery In this ro re
spect As te whether the government has been In
nny wise estepped or compromised by nets
of acquiescence, approval or accoptanee by
the advisory beard or etlicrn, the attorney
general is of the opinion that the go eminent
btnuds unairected ey any such acts, lluilu
clnres that "neither the secretary of the navy
nor any ofllcer under him bad any dispensing
owrreor the statute, tlie winds of which,
appearing as they de in a contest displaying
great solicltude for the protection of the
public Interest, cannot be taken In any ether
sense than us mandatory, without a plain
disiegard of the loglslnthe intention."
mi: navai. ahviseuv neAitn no uoeh.
The law of estoppel Is. discussed at great
length, and numerous citations are made
from previous decisions of the courts. The
atterney goueraladds : "It Is proper at this
point te say that the previsions of the con
tract binding the United States te aceept the
vessel en the approval of the naval advisory
be.iid are in my opinion -eid and Inopora Inepora Inopera
tivo, as shifting a high trust nnd duty lrem
the secretary of the navy te the beard, In vio
lation of the act under which the contract
was mnde."
The atterney goneral then proceeds, with
pondoreus and prolix iteration, te clte case
after case in support of his view el the
question wliother thore was any valid con
tract between Jehn Ueacli and the goorn georn goern
ment. He calls attention te the prevision
that the vessel shall boacceptod, novertheloss,
II it appear satisfactorily that the shortcom
ing vtes net owing eillier te dofectlvo woik weik woik
manshlper materials.
The olivleus intention efthlH wnstorellovo
the contractor el all duty nnd responsibility
ns te the speed and power of the ship, and
ninke it feasible te ferce upon the United
Status axhip-u anting in the prime quality el
sliced and fundamentally different from
what Congress authorized.

At Portland, Oregon, tlie tourists met our

and new lips the beam at 100.
Away up In Tacoma, 200 or .",00 mites from

finished entirely In the finest hard woeu
with antique brass doers, magnificent chan

At Monterey, 120 miles south of San Fran Fran

they experienced a most wonderful change
of climate, aud indulged In the het sea baths
mid wondered at the big cypress trees thoro thero thore
abouts the largest In tlie world.
At Salt Lake City the tourists " dene" the

and much valuable information ebtained.
At Ketchum the tourists vislud the (treat
smelting works erected and owned by I. A.
H. Widener, Win. 1 Elkius, (a brother or
Steve) Edward Matthews and ether mil
lionaires. It was here that they saw at the
base or a mountain 0,000 feet lu height and
crowned with perietual snow, a great spring
of sulphur-water issuing from the rocks, ut a
tomiendure of ICO degrees, and alter passing
through immonse plunge baths, the VMiterre
talus Its heat te such a degree that tlie river
into which it empties never freezes, evon in

Anether thing that struck the tourists as
ratlier strange was that for the purpose of
proventhig Indian depredations en the Pa
cific railroads the elllcials permit tlie red
skins te ride free ever the reads net lit tlie
