THE ALASKAN SITUATION
Captain Healey Makes Report on His
Recent Trip.

Captain Healey Makes Report on Hls
Recent Trip.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 10-In Capt
Healey's report 10 the treasury de.
partment of the recent cruise of the
revenue steamer Bear, he gives de-
tailed account Of the places visited.
They reached Corfu, Prince of Wales
island July Z, ard were unable to pro-
coed further north on account of the
ice. Tie introduction of reindeer
into Alaska forms the principal theme
of the report, and he considers the
project quite feasible, purchased few
and made arrangements for more next
season. He found VIM. Brown of the
bark Andrew Hicks lying in a desert
ed whaling station, where he had
been since last February, with almost
10 clothing or attention, and his
frozen limbs partially decompOsed.
These were amputated and the man
is now in fair way to recover.
The Bear could not reach the Point
Barrow relief station to deliver coal
and provisions on account of the ice,
but received word from the superin-
tendent that he had coal and supplies
sufficient for another year. Owing to
bad hunting and fishing season the
natives of the Kings Island were
found in danger of starvation. All
during the summer the supplies ar
irving at st. Michael were bought by
the uperintendent of the officer and
given to the Islanders to bring them
through until sealing begins. He
considers the law forbidding the sale
of breech leaders to the natives as
cruei, as the white men have been
making game so shy that the Indians
with spears cannot reach them and
their lives depend on successful hunt
ing.

METHODIST ECUMEN1CAL COUNCIL
"The Church and Scientific Thought" tn,
Topic of Consideration.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 10.-The fourth
days session of the Methodist Ecu
menical Council was presided over by
Rev. DR.. William Arthur of England
who conducted the devotional exer
cises. The regular program of tn
day was then taken up, the subject TO
discussion being, "The Church anc
Scientific Thought"
Rev. DIR. Wilton Story of Evanston
Ills, spoke on the attitude of the
church toward the various phases Of
unbelief. He said that unbelief was
not caused by the difficulties O
religion, but by the perverse
tendencies OF the heart O.
man. 1t is not the result O.
scientific resource, but the lack O.
moral training. Some averred that
all religion was superstition and s
bane to humanity. 1t has taken the
form of system. 1t was the old, ia.
miliar form, it was Satan's device.
Rev. w. l.. Davidson of England
tutor in biblical literature and exer.
cises in Richmond England) College
of the Wesleyan Methodist church
followed in an address on the subject
of the Bible and modern criticism.
The problem confronting the church
was the necessity.o of reconciling the
results of criticism and Christian
doctrine. The time to settle the diff
ferences by the use of great names
had passed.
Rev. Frank l.. Ballard of England
said that the small time allotted for
the discussion of this great subject
was an indication of disrespect.

middle crop was slightly below the
average over the southern and CEN
tril portions of the state, but was
somewhat late over the other portions,
and as a consequence has been greatly
improved by the late rains. Up to
August LIST, while the rainfall had
been continuously deficient, the crop
prospects, according to the Texas
Weather Service report, were equally
as favorable, It not more SO, than
last year, and this was
accounted for on the ground that at
the opening of the season the soil was
in an unusually good condition, and
that while the rainfall was deficient
during the growing months, the num-
Der of rainy days was considerably
above the average. During August
the drouth was unusually severe in
most parts of the state, and the pre-
vious deficiency in rain made it more
severely felt than would otherwise
have been the case, and to add to the
further gloomy outlook, worms APP
peared about the middle of August in
nearly all parts Of the state, but their
ravages were soon checked by I'M
usually cold weather for the season
during the last ten days of August
and the first of September, which,
while it stopped the worms, did not
in any respect injure the cotton. The
cotton picked has been unusually
clear and of fine staple, and if killing
frosts do not occur before the middle
of November, it is believed the crop
this season in Texas will reach near
100000 bales if picked as close as
last season. DR.. J. M. Cline, the fore
cast official of the United States
weather bureau for Texas stationed
at this place, states that light frosts
are indicated in exposed places over
North Texas tonight, but that no in
jury will result to cotton.

five couples were present. Guthart

tributed toward making the occasion e
pleasant one. A splendid supper was
discussed at midnight.

Street Car Matters.

Fillmore Dobbs yesterday accepted
position as starter at Tenth street.
A new rule has been issued by the Of
ficials which has caused considerable
complaint among patrons Of the road.
Crews are instructed, whenever they are
behind time, not TO stop to take on pass
engers. An instance of the inconve-
nience caused by the new order was seen
at Twelfth street last night. Eight
passengers awaited car, some OF them
being there for twelve minutes. The
first motor was behind time, aud did
not stop. The next motor arrived twelve
minutes later, and six of the indignant
patrons decided to walk. There may
be merit in the new order, but 1t has
not as yet developed.
The number OF cars on the "loop"
is insufficient to accommodate all the
passengers. To remedy this trouble
the Company has ordered several new
cars, which will be finished in short
time, after which patrons of the road
will be given better service.
The electric motor employees ball,
complimentary to Mr.. Frank Lawn,
the ex-President of the union, will
take place this evening at Westwood's
Hall.
c. E. Starr, chief dispatcher, has left
for his home in the East, to bring his
family here. Assistant Jacob Starr Is
III at his home. Mr.. Frank Lawn,
starter at Forty-third street, is filing
both positions.
Work on the new barn and other
buildings below Forty-eighth street is
progressing nicely, and with fair
weather, will be finished by January
1st.
The street car men, running on the
Martins Ferry line, are complaining
about the throwing Of stones by boys,
in Etnaville. A number of cars have
been struck, and it is but question OF
time until some passenger is hit and
hurt. The police on the Ohio side ought
TO make an example Of some one.
