SEATTLE, July 21.-Last April Lieuten-
ant E. j. Glase and Jack Walton started
from here to explore the interior Of Alaska.
Glave was in Africa with Stanley and with
the expedition for founding the Congo Free
State, and Walton is an experienced Alaska
prospeetor. In 1890 they Were with the
Frank Leslie expedition and explored the
coast, going north and south. This year
they went east and west, reaching an entirely
unknown region. They discovered rich min
eral deposits in 1890, and the great object OF
this years expedition was to find trail by
which pack-hOrses might be taken into the
interior and the mines developed
A letter from Lieutenant Glaye was re-
ceived here yesterday, written June 9th at
Neska- Ia Helm in Central Alaska, sent

posted at Chilcat July 10th. The letter
says:
We have been entirely successful with the
venture OF iaktng nack- horses into the heart OF
Alaska. The ATTEMPT was considered by many
As quite Quxatic, but am writing this from one
OF tile most central points OF Inner Alaska; from
pa OF land entirely different from the snow
cove ed heights so popularity Supposed to be the
only ground in these regions. From my present
position an immense valley, thickly clothed with
luxuriant grasses, stretches far away for miles
In ali directions. We have had all kinds of eX-
periences In reaching the present point, but al
though We have had dangerous, steep ascents
and descents TO make, swift streams TO
cross, boys to founder through and snow TO
pass over, sill We are here. safe and sound, with
all our horses, In as good condition as wewere in
Seattle. The horses have carried their ESQ
pounds with ease, and are enjoying wild limo

everywhere. When The difficult barriers are
crossed a splendid country is reached. The
deep, swift streams aud lakes are well stocked
with fish, and fine pasture and fruits are in
abundance. The winter is severe, but not so
dreadful as generally supposed.

COURT-M ARTIALS.
Evidence in the Trials Of Lieutenant Kings.
bury and Colonel Compton.

Tucson (Ariz), July 21.-At the court
martial of Lieutenant Kingsbury to-day the
hrst witness was Ma 0r Rafferty, Of the Sc C.
ond Cavalry. His testimony showed that
every penny'S worth of goods was receipted
for by Lieutenant Kingsbury, the reeeipt
being shown. The defense showed that the
goods IN question were a surplus and uu-
necessary, and had been considered I'M
worthy of account. Much of them belonged
to the officers. These Lieutenant Kings
bury had sold at two sales, as charged in the
specifications, paving the costs for repairs of
Government wagons, and handing over the
balance to Sergeant Gleason as compensa-
ton for much extra labor that he had per-
formed in the dismantlement of the post
and packing a arranging tile stores. Sew
erai Nights Sergeant Gleason worked all
night and the extra services performed
were considered by kingsbury as meriting
extra compensation" and the proceeds of
the sale were therefore handed to the faith
fui Sergeant.
The case has gone to the court-martlal for
a decision. The Lieutenant will probably
be cleared.
WALLA WALLA (Wash.) July 21.-In the
Compton cuurt-martial to-day number of
witnesses were examined in behalf of the
defense. Superior judge Upton. the main
witness, testified that he had heard rumors
OF an attack on the jail on April oath, but
to Prosecuting Attorney Blandford, whom
be thought paid no attention 10 the rumnrs.
Upton denied having approved of the send
ing bY Blan1lo- d of a telegram to the Sec
rotary of War asking for relief from
danger by the troops. bat stated that it was
against his wishes. He testified that he did
not believe that Blandford aud Sheriff Nc
Farland told Compton when they called
prior to the killing Of Hunt on the evening
OF April oath, anything more than the COM
mon rumor on the streets, which every one
had heard and no one regarded. Witness
called at the post on Compton after the
shooting Of Hunt. lie says, to find out if the
military had discovered any clews: he
thought that the officer must have heard the
bell ring when Hunt was shot, and must
have had an opportunity to apprehend some
of the men.
Colonel S. Sumner testified in behalf of
the accused. The witness was asked, as an
expert, If any law in the Articles of War
made it imperative in case like that OF
Compton 20 take specific steps. He testified
that he knew of no law for the inquiries,
while he thought the commanding officer
should exercise his own Judgment.
At the close of the c .urt the attorney for
the defense stated that ne hac but three wit
nesses to examine in the morning, when he
would put Colonel Compton on the stand
and hoped to finish the examination in the
afternoon.

LINCOLN AND HAMLIN.
How They Dodged Assassins Prior to TIL,
Inauguration.

How They Dodged Assassins Prior to til q
Inauguration.
few days before the Inauguration Mr.
Hamlin met the President-elect at the Astor
House in New York. There was great
though suppressed excitement in the me-
tropolis and throughout the country, and
threats had been freely made by Southern
fire-eaters that neither Lincoln, Hamln
NOR any other - Abolitonist should
ever be permitted to occupy the White
House, says the Springfield Republican
While the President and Vice-President-
elect were at the Astor House wild rumors
of this sort, which had been flying around
for weeks, seemed to ia Ike tangible shape at
least it Is fact that during their short stay
in the city one of the highest of the police
authorities broueht to them detailed
and circumstautial information of n
plot which had been entered into to assas-
sinate MI. Lincoln. Neither of the gentie-
men was seriously alarmed by this state
ment; still 1t was determined that no risks
should be run. In furtherance of this con-
clusion 1t was authoritatively stated that the
President and Vice-Pres dent elect would
travel together on certain train from New
York directly to Washington. Instead Of
this, however, Mr.. Hamin went to WASH
ington alone, on train other than the one
which had been designated in the news
paper report. He journeyed safely and
without disturbance in an ordinary sleeping
car until he reached Baltimore. There,
though the hour was very early in the
morning. he found that there were scores Of
people In the depot, and many reugh-looking
characters. with oaths and threats, boarded
the train with the outspOken intention of
taking a look at the ''nigger-lover, Abe
Lincoln" Finding that Mr.. Lincoln was
not on the train. however, and not recog-
nizing Mr.: Hamlin, who was lying
quietly in his berth. they made no further
demonstration, and the train went on,
reaching Washington in due time. Mr.
Lincoln. it might be well to add, proceeded
from New York to Harrisburg and from
that point went to Washington, where he
arrived safely early upon the morning
after Mr.. HaEiin. The President-elect was
met at the Baltimore and Ohio depot by
Mr.. Washburne and Senator Seward and
by them accompanied to Wizards Hotel.
where lie remained quietly until the day OF
the Inauguration. On that day it is notable
that neither Mr.. Hamlin nor Mr. Lincoln
shared the fear of an attack upon them

Mr.. Hamlin said that on the memorable oc-
casion in question Mr.. Lincoln was s:caIm,
quiet and serene as a summer day." Nor
was the. Wee President elect in any way
disturbed by the threats and rumors which
filled the capitol. Subsequently. however,

for the safety of the incoming President and
