Tor the creation of medical boards Mt each

The Rear Arrives at Seattle.

Capt Shepard Of the revenue marine bureau
has received dispatch from Capt NJ. A
Healy, commanding the revenue cutter Bear
in which he reports the arrival of that vessel al
Seattle, Washington, yesterday.
The Bear went on mission to the west Of
Alaska for the Department of Justice, and
Capt. Healy says 1t was fully and satisfac.
torily accomplished. The captain says in hi
telegram that the schooners Premier and
Dashing Wave were lost about Shumagir
Islands in April. He brought down fif.
teen of the Premier's crew. He says
nothing about the remainder Of the
Premier's crew nor Of the crew of the Dashing
Wave. 1t is supposed that they'were left al
some one of the fishing stations in Alaska. The
Dashing Wave was a vessel of 149 tons and be-
'longed to Lynde 4 Hough Of San Francisco
and was used in carrying supplies to their fish
ing station on PapOf Island. The Premier
was a vessel of 307 tons and belonged to Jacot
Jensen of San Francisco.
The Bear will now coal and take on board
other supplies and probably be ready to sal
for Boring sea about June to join the Rush
which will precede her.

An Interesting Silver Question.

An interesting question has arisen at the
Treasury Department in connection with the
present silver law, which authorizes the Secre-
tary of the Treasury to purchase $500. 900
ounces Of silver each month and to issue treas.
ury notes thereon. The treasury notes thus ia,
issued on the bullion purchased under the &C,
aggregate S43. $50, 600. The department coins
monthly 81, DOC, 900 standard silver dollars. and
the law says that any gain or seignorage arising
from such coinage shall be accounted for and
paid into the treasury. Under this law the
government has already gained by seignorage
81, $4,000. The question that now confronts
the Secretary is whether or not he Gun unde,
any circumstances issue silver certificate;
against this amount.
