GOVERNMENT FOR ALASKA.
Executive Ofhcers and New Laws May
Be Provided by Congress.

WASHINGTON CRY. Jan. 11.-TSpecial. /
Representative Carter is preparing a bill
TO provide territorial form of govern
ment for Alaska. 1t viii aim to put that
country on about the same basis, as regards
self-government, as that enjoyed by the
other territories. Executive officers and
one delegate in congress viii be granted.
and legislature whose powers shall be
regulated by constitution to be adopted.
The bill. If it becomes a law. will give to
Alaska appropriations for public institu-
tons adequate to the needs of the country.
1t viii provide for the acquisition of the
public lands by settlers, on terms some
what different from those governingin the
states, as so large portion of the lands
are valuable for mineral and timber pur-
poses.
Captain Carroll, who is here asking to be
admitted as a delegate from Alaska, has
had several conferences with Secretary
Noble on the subject of laws and regula-
tons governing the taking of timber from
the government lands there He SAYS the
laws are not enforced and cannot be. Ii

in Alaska would be liable TO arrest for tim

Columbia or Washington. The secretary
Will confer with Captain Carroll further,

GAMBLER STRANGELY MISSING.
Eugene Suffer, of Butte City, Disap-
pears and Many Search For Him.

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. I.-[Special. IA
Seattle detective is in the city tonight
looking for Eugene Suffer, a high-rolling
gambler, who is mysteriously missing.
The detective visited Nose CUNTS room
on Kearney street, Whites bank on Third
street and Lawrence's rooms at 90 Geary
street, but without finding the missing
man.
Inquiries reached the city from four
sources asking as to the whereabouts of
Suffer before the detective from the North
appeared. Miss Kay Waite, of Fargo, n.
OAK, is anxious to know what has become
of Eugene, and whether he is dead or
alive. Miss Rosida Suffer, who is
evidently sister of the gambler,
is anxious to hear from him,
and message from her implores
the public to send her at once definite in
formation regarding him. Miss Emma
Hope, who lives at Butte City, Mont, has
also written here making inquiries for the
missing Suffer. In this same town of
Butte City. Suffer is said to have wife
and two children.
The last seen of the missing gambler was
four weeks ago, when he left Spokane
Falls with the intention of coming to San
Francisco. At the time of his departure
he had with him $1,000 in cash in his
pocket, beside a valuable gold watch and
diamond stud, and diamond rings. 1t was
reported in Spokane Falls that domestic
difficulties led 10 Suffers disappearance.
A few days after he left Spokane Falls
news was received there that, instead of
starting for San Francisco, he had gone to
Seattle, where he had been taken i'll with
pneumonia and had died very sud-
denly. a detective started out on
the trail of the missing man, and,
arriving in Seattle, he found that
there was absolutely no truth in reported
death of Suffer. The rumor evidently had
been started by the gambler himself, with
the hope of making his friends believe that
he was dead.
1t is thought that he came direct from
Seattle to this city. There seems to be
something mysterious about Suffer, who
has always an abundance of cash and in
variably dresses in the heighth of fashion.
A few years ago he disappeared
very myste-iously from st. Joseph, Mo-,
Just about the time his friends had
ceased mourning for him, he turned up
again, to the surprise of everyone. and
said that he had been away on pleasure
trip. He has frequently told his compan-
ions that he had two implacable enemies
each of whom would take his life when
opportunity offered.

SILVER SURE TO WIN.
Republicans in the House Will
Not Caucus On Lit.
NO OPPOSITION FROM REED.
After IT Has Passed Senate and House
SO Smoothly the President Won't
Veto Free Coinage.

WASHINGTON CRY, Jan. u.--LSpecial. =
1t is not unlikely that the free-coinage
proposition will be presented in the House
In advance of the arrival of the Senate bill
in the lower body. The House committee
on coinage, weights and measures is IN
favor of introducinga committee Dill which
will be verbatim the Senate bill, with the
Stewart frec-coinage amendment, which
will be upon the calendar upon the passage
of the measure by the Senate, a thing which
is regarded as sure TO come next Neohes-
day. A majority of the House committee
is favorable to free coinage, all the Demo-
Gratis having been whipped into line by the
party leaders, who want to see such a
measure sent to the White House. Inc
committee by reporting such bill could
avoid delays which the speaker might
cause by another reference, and when the
House is committed to the proposition,
the Senate bill could be substituted IN
short order.
Representative Carter said today that he
thought the House committee on coinage
would introduce free coinage bill similar
TO Senator Stewards amendment 10 Sher-
mans financial measure, nov under con-
sideration in the Senate. The House bill
could then be taken up from the table
when the Senate bill comes over. and this
would obviate the necessity of reference TO
the coinage committee and delay that such
reference would entail This action is in
tended 10 circumvent the gold men, should
any effort be made to kill financial legisla-
ton by burying the bill in committee
pigeonholes.
On the other hand q representative
whose name is as well known in Europe
as in America, and who can speak anthem
tically, said positively today that there
was no doubt the silver bill would pass the
House. When asked if the Republicans
would caucus on the matter as at the last
session, he answered that no caucuses
would be held and that every representa-
tive would be permitted to express his
own wishes or those Of his constituents by
voting as he pleased, free from caucus fet-
tiers. This Will give the silver men de-
cided advantage, giving them at least q
score of votes that would otherwise go rs
the caucus dictated. Mr.. Payson, of Illi-
nois, last year made one of the strongest
free coinage speeches of the debate, yet he
voted for the compromise measure, as
agreed upon in the caucus. Mr.. Payson
will probably lead the silver light when it
comes up in the House.
The same representative who gave the
above information also said unequiyocally
that Speaker Reed would not oppose silver
legislation by resorting TO any devices that
his position OF executive officer affords
him. LII this proves true silver will have
plain sailing. and there Is no fear that
President Harrison will veto the bill when

PORT ORCHARD DRY DOCK.
senator Allen Hopes to Have Prelimi-
nary Construction Work Begun.

WASHINGTON CRY, Jan. u.-fSpecial. l.
Senator Allen has been interviewing his
colleagues in the Senate during the past
few days on the subject of dry dock at
Port Orchard. He paid special attention
to the naval committee and found the gen.
eral opinion was that work on the project
ought TO begin as soon as possible. 1t was
first thought that the purchase of site
would be enough for this year. but Mr.. Allen
was agreeably surprised TO learn that nearly
every man he spoke to favored the i'm
mediate passage of bill appropriating
$4,000 for the erection of works. En-
couraged by this sentiment the senator
will try TO have bill passed at this ses-
sion with the object of having preliminary
construction work commenced at once.
Senator Allen said after his canvass of
the committee on naval affairs, TO which
his bill for dry dock at Port Orchard was
referred:
81 find many OF the committee favorable to its
early consideration" he said today. senator
Cameron, who is chairman of the committee,
fayors it. Owing 10 the sentiment against large
appropriations Just now, some are dividing the
proposition and appropriating only the $4,000
asked to purchase the site That would be
better than nothing, but would much prefer
not 10 take the chances OF delay by dividing the
appropriation

PARNELL HOLDS OUT.
His Speech at Limerick Whites
His Opponents.
HE HATES JUSTIN MCCARTHY.
The Negotiations With O'Brien Are Sat-
isfactory. He Says, but Re VIII
Not Retire From Command.

LIMERICK, Jan. u.-Fully 10000 people
assembled here today to greet Parneu.
Thousands came from all the adjoining
counties. He made long speech. He
said that Gladstone caused the present
trouble by his mandatory letter.
Referring to Gladstone's denial of the
accuracy of his statements regarding the
interview at Hawarden, Parnell read the
letter he had written to Premier Rhodes
at the cape of Good Hope, warm friend
of home rule, only three months after the
interview. making the same assertions.
Another important fact yet unrevealed,
Parnell said, he would now publish.
Twenty-four hours before issuing his
manifesto he said Mccarthy, to whom he
told what he intended to do, and gave an
outline of the statement he was preparing
to issue as a manifesto, Mccarthy. he
had reason to know, placed his intention
before Gladstone. Hissesl. Mccarthy
also communicated to him Glad stones OBJ
servations upon the line of the manifesto
and there was no reference whatever then
made by Gladstone against the manifesto
on the grounds of breach of confidence.

Touching the present position of the

the Liberals towards the land bill proposed
by the government, showed the Liberals
had no genuine land policy.
The leaders of the Liberal party, in
order to conciliate the radical section,
abandoned the idea of a peasant proprie-
tary and land purchase laws; in order to
conciliate the Wings refused to entertain
the proposal for the reduction of rents by
means of amendments to the land act of
1881 or by comforting upon future Irish
parliament power to deal with the ques-
ton. 1t was therefore perfectly useless
for the Liberals to talk about home rule at
all, because home rule, so restricted,
would be sham. Whatever might be the
motives of the Irish members who opposed
him, it was certain that they were not in a
position to sit in judgment on him, or pre-
tend to express an opinion of the country.
Parnell said he could not forecast the re-
suit of the present negotiations without a
breach Of confidence. He thought, how
ever, that O'Brien would not object to his
saying that so far the negotiations had re-
suited in agreement, and that they fully
recognized that in future steps will have to
be taken by other men. upon whom a very
great responsibility will rest if Mr.. O'Brien
and himself are not again able 20 resume
negotiations with an assured hope of sue
cess. Cheers. AS soon as the future of
the Irish question was secured he would
cheerfully retire from the leadership of
the Irish party. The future would vindi-
cate him fully.

TWO STEAMERS COLLIDE AND SINK.
Twelve Sailors Go Down With the Bear
and One With the Thames.

LONDON, Jan. 1.-THE steamer Britannia,
from Leith, came into collision with the
steamer Bear, and the latter sank imme-
diately and twelve of her crew were lost.
Others were rescued by the Britannia s
boats.
After the collision the Britannia, which
was badly damaged, transferred her forty
five passengers to the steamer Thames, and
was taken in tow by that vessel. The
hawser connecting the two vessels soon
snapped, and before another line could be
carried to the damaged vessel she gave a
plunge and sank beneath the waves. For.
tunately her crew had put on life-belts and
ALL with the exception of the chief en-
were picked up boats from the steamer
Thames.
