eral days previously on prospecting
and trading expedition. Friends secured
steam tug and started to investigate.
Upon arriving at the place indicated by
the Indians two boats were found in
stead of one. The bodies of William
II. Bennett and Mr.. Mitchell were found
in some driftwood near the boats, but
the other bodies could not be found.
-Four days later report reached Juneau
that another boat containing Charles
Lual and d. McCabe had also been lost,
with both her passengers
There is still great deal of agitation
regarding the proposed new Territorial
military company, which Missionary
Millard is forming of his Indian boys.
The whites are objecting most strenu-
ously to having young redskins armed.
Territorial United States Marshal
Porter is reported to be engaged to an
Indian belle.
There are said to be seventy-tw can.
didates for places as numerators under
Census Supervisor Ivan Petroff.
The opening up of several coal mines
during the coming summer will add q
new feature to the mining industry of
Alaska. In the excitement of prospect
ing for gold for the past few years pros.
pectors have neglected looking for coal.
1t has long been known to exist in large
bodies along the west coast of Alaska,
but now some very promising prospects
have been discovered in Southeastern
Alaska. On Admiralty Island Messrs.
McClosky, Brady and others are en-
gagged in opening what promises to be
an extensive deposite of superior quality
of coal.
Among the passengers on the Elder
were United States Marshal Porter and
assistant. They had in charge three
Indians, members of the Hyddh tribe,

Barred HIS BREAsr I IN COURT.
Ex-Mayor Cody's Slayer Showed HIS
Wound to the Jury.

Ex-Mayor Cody's Slayer Showed His
Wound to the Jury.
AUGUSTA, GA, April 1.-THE trial
Of Major G. E. McGregor for the MUIR
der of j.. NJ w. Cody was begun at
WaTenton yesterday. The doubts en-
tertained about securing a jury have
been expelled, few hours sufficing to
empanel twelve men to try the case.
The defense stole march on the
prosecution and astonished the crowd
in attendance by putting the prisoner
ON the stand. A dramatic scene fol-
lowed. Prefacing his statement with
the explanation to the jury that any
apparent nervousness ON his part was
due solely to- his long confinement in
jail, Major McGregor began his story.
First, however, stripping himself to
the waist, he advanced to position in
front of the jury, where he displayed to
each the scar made by the bullet from
Cody's pistol the night that, lying in
ambush in McGregor,s yard, he fired
the shot that was to have been O death
wound. McGregor's statement was that
negro had been hired by Cody to do
the deed, but had weakened, where.
upon Cody undertook personally to put
him out of the way.
"Cody confessed this to me-" said
Major McGregor, land admitted that
he had no cause for the deed and was
unworthy to live. He said he was
crazed."
Cody's failure to comply with the
condition imposed on him of leaving
the country. and later his failure to ap
pear in court, taken in connection with
subsequent actions, the Major said, led
him to fear another attack, and he then
killed Cody on sight and in self
defense

THE MEMORIAL BRIDGE.
Two of Its Boomers Join Hands Across
tie Potomac.

the Potomac
Major r. S. Lacey has Joined hands
across the Potomac, as it were, with
Captain Symons on the recommends
tion of the latter to construct Memo
rial bridge from the foot of New York
avenue to the Arlington reservation.
Major Lacey lives on the other side of
the river, but his business office is in
this city, consequently he is well in
formed as to the entire subject.
The bridge, he said, is paramount to
the question of restoring the District TO
the original and constitutionally pre-
scribed limits of ten miles square.
Every national, municipal and private
interest on both sides of the Potomac
demand that it be bridged at the earliest
day possible.
The nations interest lies in the fact
that though its Arlington estate is a
most important and essential adjunct to
the National Capital, it lies there as
helpless and useless as If it were in
Montana. The Government cannot to-
day, under the existing state of affairs,
reach Its own property, even under ex-
ecutive direction, without crossing over
state lines.
No soldier can stand upon the heights
of Arlington without expressing feel
iDgs of surprise that Congress did not
years ago, by bridging the Potomac
with its own structure, secure means Of
direct communication with the estate,
thereby making it a part and parcel Of
the District of Columbia.
The foot of Seventeenth street, from
whence it is proposed to construct the
bridge, is the only point on the city
front TO which our entire street-ca sys-
TEN converges. Then, with the most
ample railroad facilities and wharfage
deep and extensive enough to permit the
anchorage of thousand ocean
steamers, the nation can offer one of
the prettiest sites in the country.

REVOLUTIONARY PRICES.
Washington Ladies' Will be Pleased
With the Announcement.

In our advertising columns to-day the
London Bazaar announces revolution in
the prices OF millinery, cloaks, fancy goods
and infants wear. The announcement is
no misnomer, for any price below the al
ways reasonable figures OF this reliable
and well-known house must, indeed, be rev.
olutionary. There are few houses in the
United States which have contributed more
to the adornment of feminine headgear
than the London Bazaar, and the pretty
flower hats and bonnets which emanate
from its portals have made the firms trade
in that line stable and prosperous one
among the ladies of Washington.
In beaded cloaks and wraps their line is
unexcelled, and for quality and price stand
unriyaled. In the thousand and one arti-
cles to be had over the counters of the
London Bazaar, bargain hunters can satisfy
themselves to their hearts content.

SDaith Assembly ceiling case, Roland
A, Gore, brother in law Of Andrews,

was on the stand yesterday. He told
of his relations with Andrews as an as

said that for five weeks during that in
vestigation he had Mrs Andrews con
fined in his house, and that she did not
go away, as was alleged by Andrews
before the committee Andrews visited
her there.
Two days after she was brought
there box was brought there. In that
box was quantity of gold coin, bonds,
stocks and an agreement between
Snaith and Andrews for an equal di-
vision of the money made on the work.
The paper was taken from the box and

tents provided for half and.half divis-
ion of the profits on both ceiling and
staircase. The date was June 81. The
amount in gold coin in the box
was $3.50; currency, $4,000, and
stocks and bonds $4,000. The alleged
staircase contract between Sullivan and
Snaith was paper made after Mr..
Snaith returned from Pittsfield, and
during the Ainsworth investigation.
He had seen vouchers containing
things which were not furnished by
Ainsworth, had told him that the
vouchers were so made for Snaith that
he would have to make division of the
spoils or be exposed on the vouchers.
Andrews said that this was the only
way he could hold Snaitb In check and
make him divide half of the profits.

MINNEAPOLIS, MINI, April 11.--A
special to the tribune from Winnipeg,
Man, says: There was another politi-
cal surprise when it was announced
that Attorney General Martin has with
drawn his resignation and would con-
tinue to be a member Of the Greenway
Cabinet. The grounds of the action on
Martins part are that pressure was
brought on him by his political and per-
sonal friends to remain in the govern
ment and help carry out important
legislation for which he himself was
largely responsible. Others, however,
assert that Martin goes back as premier
virtually and that Greenway could not
secure any person TO fill his position.

Indigestion

is not only distressing complaint, of
itself, but, by causing the blood to
become depraved and the system en-
feebled, is the parent of innumerable
maladies. That Ayers Sarsaparilla
is the best cure for Indigestion, even
when complicated with Liver Complaint,
is proved by the following testimony
from Mrs. Joseph Lake, of Brockway
Centre, Mich.:-
oliver complaint and Indigestion
made my life burden and came near
ending my existence. For more than
four years suffered untold agony, was
reduced almost to a skeleton, and hardly
had strength to drag myself about. All
kinds of food distressed me, and only
the most delicate could be digested at
all. Within the time mentioned several
physicians treated me without giving re-
lief Nothing that took seemed to do
any permanent good until 1 commenced
the use of Ayers Sarsaparilla, which
has produced wonderful results. Soon
after commencing TO take the Sarsapa-
rilla could see an improvement in my
condition. My appetite began to return
and with it came the ability to digest
all the food taken, my strength inn
proved each day, and after few
months of faithful attention to your
directions, l found myself well
woman, able to attend TO all household
duties. The medicine has given me a
