Public Land Question Comes
Up in Bill Before
Congress.
CHANGE IN COAL LAND LAW
"Wyoming Congressman Seeks to Dis
imse of Surface Rights to Prop
erty as Though Xo Coal
Kxisted Beneath.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash
ington. Dec. 6. Representative Mondell.
of Wyoming, chairman of the House com
mittee on public lands, today Introduced
a bill following the lines of Secretary
Balllnger's recent recommendations, per
mitting the surface entry of public lands
known to contain coal deposits.
In the main, the bill provides that pub
lic land known to be underlain with coal
In commercial quantities, shall, so far as
the surface is concerned, be open to
entry under the homestead or desert land
act, according to the character of the
surface land, and shall also be subject
to selection under the Carey act, with a
View to its irrigation.
Plan to Separate Rights.
It Is the purpose of the bill to entirely
separate the surface rights from the,
rights to the coal beneath. If the present
coal land laws are continued In effect,
the coal will be subject to entry under
prevailing regulations: If the coal land
law is changed, then the coal deposits
will be subject to entry or to lease in
accordance with the provisions of- the
new statute. But the Mondell bill is not
dependent upon a coal land law for its
enforcement: It disposes solely of the
surface rights, as though no coal existed
beneath the surface.
Mr. Mondell Is frank to say that it will
take a great deal of discussion to whip
this measure Into acceptable and prac
tical form. He will bring it before his
committee at the earliest possible date;
will have hearings and get the views of
'officials and members competent to dis
cuss the subject, and endeavor at a Rea
sonably early date to get the bill In shape
for consideration by the House.
There are a number of intricate fea
tures to be worked out. Some provision
must be made for adjusting conflicts be
tween the surface entrymen -and the man
who later obtains title to the coal, or a
lease to work the same. To some extent
there will be conflict, and this must be
regulated by law, or else there will be
endless friction.
Instance Given In Illustration.
For Instance, a surface entryman may
build his home, barns and other build
ings, lay out his fields, and make all im
provements. The coal land entryman
coming along later may find that he can
best develop the coal by sinking a shaft
on the site of the house or barn.
To permit him arbitrarily to compel
the settler to move his building without
compensation would be unjust; yet in
some instances tlie might be good rea
son why he should be permitted to sink
Ills shaft where he can do it to best ad
vantage. Some basis of remuneration
must be provided, but how to do it ef
fectively presents a nice problem., Again,
there must be some provision in the law
which will protect the settler from reck
less prospecting all over his land, to the
detriment of his fields, crops and .prop
erty. '
This conflict of interests is the one
great drawback to the dual system of
developing lands containing coal de
posits, and until it can be worked out
satisfactorily, legislation of this charac
ter will stand little chance of passing. It
Is to meet this situation that Mr. Mondell
Is introducing his bill this early in the
cession.

WIFE TOO FOND, HE SAYS
Man Who Lives With Mother Wants
lMvorce From Wife.
NKW YORK, Dec. 5. A well-dressed.
T-ell-gronmed young man entered the
West 100th street station last night
with an Indignant expression on his
face. He walked to the desk and greet
ed Lieutenant Sheehan and then asked
the officer if he could tell him how he
could obtain a separation from his wife.
The seeker after advice said that he
had recently married a young woman
and that at the time it was expressly
understood that she was not to look
to him for support, as he had to take
care of his mother.
Then, with a sullen look, he told
Lieutenant Sheehan that his wife had
been visiting his home nearly every
day, had been staying to dinner, and
had remained over night far too often
to suit him. He made his statements
without a smile, and as if he were the
most aggrieved person the face of the
earth. "How can I get a separation?"
he again asked the Lieutenant.
"You had better go to the morgue."
said the Lieutenant, looking his visitor
over from head to foot. ' That's the
only place I know where you can get
one."
The man. whose identity the police
were unable to learn, turned away with
a disgusted gesture and walked to the
door. Outside the station he was ap
proached and asked for his name.
"Who are you? What do you do?"
he questioned In turn.
"No. I will not tell my name," he
said, and hurried away.
BIG SCHOONER ASHORE
MAJESTIC GOES AGROUND ON
POINT PFEIFFER.
Captain and Crew of Nine Men
Reach Land Safely Vessel
Owned in San Francisco.
SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 6. The steam
schooner Majestic, bound from San Pe
dro to this port in ballast, is ashore.
Captain K. Keegan and the crew of
nine men got ashore safely after the
schooner went aground on Point Pfief
fer. The schooner, which is a vessel
of 449 tons, is owned by I. J. Harmon
and leased by II. J. Knowles, both of
this city. i
MONTEREY, Cal.. Dec. 6. Captain E.
Keegan and hie crew of nine men from
the wrecked steam schooner Majestic
arrived at Monterey. 25 miles north of
the scene of the disaster, today, and told
the story of the wreck. He said that
he endeavored to keep his vessel 12 miles
off shore, but the strong westerly cur
rent, combined with the wind, carried
her toward the land. One blade of the
propeller had been lost during a recent
trip from Puget Sound, and in the steam
er's crippled condition it was Impossible
to keep her on her course during the
storm. The seas were breaking to a
great height, and along the shore was a
perpendicular bluff, .toward which the
vessel was rapidly driven, soon striking
on the rocks.
At daylight a boat carrying a line suc
ceeded in reaching the shore, but it was
nearly four hours later before the crew
waslanded. First Mate Tralnor had a
narrow escape from drowning. While
climbing up the face of the bluff he fell
a distance of 20 feet into the sea. but
was rescued by the sailors at the risk of
their lives.
The members of the crew are now at
Pfoiffer'a ranch house, eight miles from
the stranded steamer, which has been
carried up on the Bandy beach under the
bluff by the heavy seas, and which will
probably be a total loss. The Majestic
was built only a year ago. She cost
$150,000.
The revenue cutter Hugh McCulloch,
'which arrived here today, left immedi
ately for the scene of the wreck, and will
attempt to float the stranded vessel. The
McCulloch reported having passed the
tug Navigator with the lumber steamer
Excelsior in tow off Davenport's Land
ing, making slow progress toward San
Francisco. The Excelsior was driven
ashore at Moss Landing during the same
gale that wrecked the Majestic, but was
floated.
