HUDSON'S BAY.
Importance Of the Expedition Shortly to
Sail From Halifax.

Considerable interest is felt in New
York in the Hudson's Bay expedition, to
sail from Halifax in few days to solve
the problem whether Hudson Straits can
be navigated by steamships for sufficient
time in summer to make them an avail
able route for grain from the Northwest to
Europe. A railway from Winnipeg to
Montreal is expected to be ready for
heavy tra{li., this summer; distance 1,4oo
miles. If, however, Hudson's Bay be found
navigable, the railroad will be constructed
from Winnipeg to Churchill, saving it is
claimed, 6so miles in the transportation OF
wheat from the Northwes; to Liverpool.
The New York Times says: 1fit should
be demonstrated that the Straits can be
passed by steamships as early as the end OF
May and as late as the first Of November,
then the early construction of railway
to Fort Churchill is certain. Should the
route prove success its practical result
would be to bring most OF the farms in the
Northwest l,ooo miles nearer to the sea
adding immensely TO their value.

THE ALASKAN QUESTION.
American Possession but Little Better than
Russian Rule.

Under the caption "Help Those Women"
a Philadelphia Press editorial makes an
energetic appeal in behalf OF Mrs. Mcfar'
lands work among the Indians at Fort
Wrangle, and insists that the Government
shall no longer trif1e with the Alaska ques.
ton. White miners have dragged down
well-disposed natives to worse condition
than under Russian rule. They have been
the worst enemies Of Mrs. McFarland's
efforts to reclaim the Indian girls and re.
press the infamous traffic which the miners
had begun. The officials Of the Territory
even seem leagued against missionary
work, and are now endeavoring to have
the little allotment of land fhr schools
withdrawn. beautifully" says the Press,
shave we repaid the enthusiasm with
which the natives of Alaska welcomed
American possession Of the country, in our
neglect and the infamous treatment to
which they have been subjected by low
whites"

THE PRESBYTERIAN ASSEMBLY.
Resolutions Against Sunday Newspapers
Roman Catholic Baptism.

In the Presbyterian General Assembly
at Cincinnati on the 3sd S. B. Bell, d. d.,
of Missouri, offered resolutions against
Sunday newspapers, and committing the
church to the polity Of what is commonly
known as prohibition. These resolutions
were referred to the committees on tenn
pcrance and church polity. Bishop Foss,
of the Methodist Episcopal church, was in
vitcd to take seat ON the platform and
was received by the Moderator and the as
sembly standing The standing committee
on freedmen reported the total receipts for
the year at 9ll6,ooo. Under the care Of
this board are loS churches with 1000
communicates 1914 Sunday schools with
1900 scholars. During the year l,7co
members have been added to these churches.
Judge brakes Roman Catholic rcsolu
ton was the special order for the evening
session. The assembly adopted unani-
mouslv the report of the Judicial com
mittcc. to which WAS referred Mr.. Brad
shaw's appeal from the Synod Of New
York, recommending that the appeal be
dismissed, on the ground that previous de
libcr:tons OF the general assembly have
left with the sessions the right to decide
upon the validity OF Roman Catholic hap-
t>,n in particular cases. This appeal Is
based on the requirement of the Princeton
church, that an applicant who had been
baptized in the Catholic church should bc
rcbaptized.

A TALK WITH REL.


Rev. Mr.. Pitblads, who was on board
the steamer "Northcote'' with Riel after
the latter's capture, gives an interview
with the rebel leader, which is in substance
as follows: Riel is described as cunning,
intelligent man. He did not know what
the authorities would do with him. He
was forced to fight, he said, by the police
and Hudson's Bay officers, who tyrannized
over the half.breeds and abused their pow.
er. Speaking Of the battle of Batouche,
Riel said he had 500 men engaged, of whom
eight were killed and two wounded. Dur.
ing the fight he was present among the
men in the pits. He spoke Of the priests
us opposed 10 any attempt on the part Of
the half.breeds to have their wrongs right
ed, and denounced them as tyrannical and
interested solely in their own welfare.
They turned the people against them be-
cause they assumed civil functions. The
priests were against him (RieD not because
he rebelled, but because he did not succeed
in helping them. The people forced him
to fight and would not let him go back to
Montana. He was on his way to give
himself up to Middleton, he said, when the
scouts captured him.

FOR THE PEOPLES GOOD.
Some Idea of the Rush For Places of
EmolumeMt.

There are loS land Offices in the country,
the great majority Of which are located in
the States Of California, Colorado, Min
nesota, Wisconsin, Kansas and the Ter
ritories. Each Office is entitled to 4 regis
ter and receiver, whose respective salaries
are from 5000 to $1,000.
The recent announcement by General
Sparks that the Federal offices would not
necessarily be filled by residents Of the Ter
ritory is expected to. give tremendous
impetus to the filing OF applications. Gen.
Sparks says the demand for these positions
is already greatly in excess Of anything he
ever expected. For the c16 places there
are nearly $500 applications while each
mail adds dozen at least.
"Will you be guided by any special
standard Of excellence in filling those
places?" was asked the Commissioner.
"The prime recommendation in all cases
will be sturdy, uncompronising honesty
he replied. " The positions are such that
any person Of good business ability can fl!
them. There is no trouble on that score,
but the man who expects to represent the
! Government in this capacity must have
clear record. Political influence alone will
avail nothing Honesty" (he repeated with
great emphasis) "thats the prime qualiti
cation"
"You say in your order that appointees
will not necessarily be taken from the Ter
ritory where they reside. On the other
hand, will their residence millitate against
them?"
"No-it is rather point in their favor.
!, We prefer Western men for these places"
"Shall you make this a rule?"
"Not at all. The appointee is as liable
' 10 be chosen from New England as from
o the Northwest There will be no geograph.
e ical distinction"
n "Will you dismiss the incumbents be-
It fore the expiration OF their term?"
J. "That point has not been settled. When
o the Secretary and take up these cases, as
o we shall within short time, that question
" will be carefully considered. 1t is my be-
10 lief that the officials .of the Government,
ID ought to be in sympathy with >he admin
ID istration, and this applies to my bureau as
is we'll as any other"

THE APACHE WAR.
Troops In Pursuit but too Far behind.

A Denver dispatch Of May Goth says:
Last Saturday the Apaches killed two men
at the Cantwell 4 peterie ranch on the
Cila, and on Sunday afternoon they killed
Charles Stevenson, foreman Of the Alley
& Ingersoll ranch, and Harvey Moreland,
son Of James Moreland, living between
Grafton and Fairvicw. The bodies were
found about six miles north Of Grafton,
still warm. Moreland was shot several
times, and when found, was lying on his
back with an iron rod driven through his
head into the ground. Frank Adams, son
of George Adams, ranchman near Fair
view, is supposed to be killed, as his hat
was found near the bodies Of the two dead
men.
a special from Winslow, Arizona, says:
About 100 Navajoes, Utes and Piutes, all
thoroughly armed, with war paint on, were
camped near Hardis on the night Of the
e5th. 1t is currently rumored that they
are making preparations to join Geronirno's
band Of Apaches.
The latest indications from the front in
dicate that the hostiles are on Diamond
Creek, northeast Of Fort Bayard, in the
Black range. Colonel Morrow and the
San Carlos scouts are in that vicinit, and
Colonel Biddle with battalion Of the sixth
Cavalry is around Ilillsboro. Lieutenant
Davis with sixty White mountain Apache
scouts are ON their trail.
A Dcming, Arizona, special says: Thirt,
Indians passed near here, heading for Mex
leo, with the cavalry in close pursuit Th'
bodies of five Americans, killed BY Indians
were found at Blue river. The stage run
ming from Eagle to Grafton, in the Blacl
range, has not been heard from, and it j
supposed to be in the hands Of the Indians
