Tlie Timet savs: We cannot regard the eclipse of the Philadelphia and Heading Railway Company as permanent. Its property has fullen in value, but men must Lave coal and iron, and tho recovery of triulo in these commodities is inevitable. With a revival of activity In commerce the company must recover something of iU fortune, though shareholders may wisely suppose to be sanguine in looking to tlie speedy return for the days of divi dends on their original shurcs.

Representative Horace Davis to-day introduced a resolu tion directing tlie secretary of the treas ury to report to the houso what causes, if any, are tending to diminish the tidal area of the Hay of San Francisco, ami what action, if any, has beeu taken by the j.ov erntnent of tho United States, by the State of California, or by corporations, or by individuals, which will tend to lesson tho scour on the bar of San Francisco, and thereby decrease tlie depth of water on said bar, and diminish tho value of San Francisco Ray as a commercial harbor. Tho purpose of this resolution is to sot on foot an investigation by tho coast survey to exhibit tho entire extent to which the tidal area lias been diminished, and thereby lay tho groundwork for intelli gent action to remedy, existing evils and to avert possible danger. The principal causes referred to are of course tho de posits of mining debris. Tlie resolution otherwise has reference to action by the federal government in constructing train ing walls at Oakland in the sale of tido lands and fillinu- in of Mission Ray by iving authority to sell submerged lanu iy the State and for the construction of a wharf ami lining in ot llio water ironi ui Oakland by tlie railroad company. It is of interest in this connection to note that in view of tho shoaling of tho buy of Roston Harbor, the Mussiichuset's legisla ture has passed a law requiring every person who (Ills any portion of that har bor to excavate a corresponding amount elsewhere so as to prevent sny diminu tion of tho total tidal prison.
