Alaska Proves to be Decidedly Profit
able Investmont.

AlHska Proves TO be DeCiueNly froHJ-
able Investment.
New York Malt and Erprcss: The
purchase of Alaska from Russia for
the sum of 81, 100000 was at one time
called Stewards folly" but the lapse
Of little more than two decades has
proved that it was an act of far-seeing
statesmanship. The Alaska CONNER
cial Company pays to the Govern
ment $500, 600 year for a monopoly
of the seal fisheries of the Territory,
which is about 4 per cent. on the
original purchase money. The value
of the salmon and cod fisheries per
annum is estimated Mt $4,000, GOO,
the fur trade at 81, 1900, 600, gold
and bullion dust 81 100000 and
lumber and ivory 100000, max
ing the commerce of the Terri
tory for the past year, as shown by
the Governor annual report, $0,9j0,-
GOO. The climate is not SO severe as
is generally supposed, owing it is
thought, to q warm current from the
Indian Ocean similar to the Gulf
stream in the Atlantic. The Russian
Government appropriates $50, 900 an
nually to the support of the Greco
Russian Church and schools, while
our own Government, with n surplus
in its Treasury that il cannot devise
ways to get rid of II, only appro-
pirates S26, 900 annually for the sup
port of public schools in the Ter

Chairman Barnum Here.

Chairman Barnum of the National
Democratic Committee was here yester-
day, according to the Baltimore san, and
had long talk with the President and
those members of the Executive Commit
tee who are now in this city. There will
be a meeting of the latter committee in
New York next week to prepare for the
formal opening of the campaign. Mr..
Barnum has looked the field over very
thoroughly, and he expresses himself en-
tirely satisfied with the outlook. He
feels confident.that Cleveland and Thur
man will carry New York, New Jersey,
Connecticut and Indiana, and antiCi-
pates large Democratic gains in the

Colonel stevenson's Death.

Colonel James Stevenson, long prOmi-
nently connected With the United States
Geological Survey, died suddenly Of heart
disease, at the Gilsey House, In New York,
Yesterday. He had achieved a reputation
as an explorer and collector in the realms
of natural history. He first went West
with the Warren Expedition In 1857, and
was until the time Of his death, when he
was General Assistant, employed in the
United States Geological Survey. His
collections among the Pueblo Indians
were extensive and valuable and he was
q prominent writer on Archaeological sub
ieOts. He was on very friendly terms
with the Indians and brought to this city
the Princess Wee Wah, who took part in
tho Indian dance at the Kirmes two years
ago.
For some time the Coloneps health had
been bad and he had been travelling for
it, sometimes visiting Fortress Monroe,
Waterford Va; Boston, Mass, and a
week ago went TO New York city. He
was much improved in health and his
death was sad surprise TO his many
friends, His wife and her father accom-.
panied him and wore with him when he
died.

MIR. Loomis, New Position,

Mr.. f. B. Loomis, the Washington COR
respondent of the Cincinnati TimeS-Star,
will leave for New York in few days to
take charge of the newspaper bureau in
the headquarters of the Republican Ma
tional Committee, at 81 Fifth avenue. He
held somewhat similar position in 1884,
but the work this year will be more diff

Mr.. Loomis' experience in newspaper po-

this position, and better and safer man
