NEW DETECTIVE AGENCY.
T.. A. Gardner Manager OF . StronI
ORGANIZATION.


The Washington Detective Agency is
ready for business, and has opened offices
in rooms I, 2 3 and 4 Epler block. E. A.
Gardner is manager and Z. V. Ruger Sec
rotary.
The new agency announces that it will
do strictly legitimate detective business,
and that it viii not make a business of
furnishing armed mercenaries. Manager
E. A. Gardner said yesterday:
'We are prepared to handle every kind
of legitimate detective work and matters
of most confidential character. We are
supplied with men qualified by years of
experience for every line of work. We
have specialists in every line, and can
guarantee satisfaction within the lines of
good work. We are backed by sufficient
capital to develop our business and to
safely undertake any contract or case that
is offered u.s. We think a detective agency
of this nature will succeed here. Now the
Sullivan agency does an immense business
in this state. There is no reason why we
should not have the legitimate part of this
business, and intend to show by our meth
DDS and success that we are worthy of il. "

The Sale OF Property for Delinquent
City Taxes.

City Treasurer Krug decided yesterday
to again postpone the sale of property
for delinquent city taxes. The tardy tax
payers are still pouring into his office, and
the charter gives him discretionary pow

but the sale will positively take place next
Monday.
The amount of money taken in yester-

UNCLAIMED CARGO At JUNEAU.
Coal Taken There and No Owner Found
Lively Days at Port Or
chard-gotes.

The Swedish bark Mamma, of Helseng-
borg, Captain p. L. PohIsson, arrived at
Juneau, Alaska, on June "A, with cargo
of coal from Newcastle, n. S. W., to order.
On the arrival of the vessel the master
failed to find any one to receive the cargo,
and he therefore communicated with Cap
tain L. Biondi, the nearest consul, at Port
Townsend. Captain Biondi learned that
there is no agent of the coal company that
shipped the cargo on the Sound. It looks
now as if the master would be obliged to
sell the cargo to collect the freight.

ROME. July 1s.-The papal encyclical on the
Columbus celebration, issued on Saturday, di-
reefs that on October L a mass of the trinity be
celebrated in the Catholic churches of Spain,
Italy and America in honor of Columbus. The
encyclical also invites the bishops of other ma
tons to say the same mass. The pope says he
cannot doubt that Columbus was primarily in
spired by the Catholic faith. The difference be-
tween him and the illustrious men who before
and after him discovered unknown lands was
that Columbus was animatedsby the spirit OF re-
ligion which sustained his genius, fortified his
constancy and afforded him consolation in his
greatest trials

MONTE CRISTO LINE RAILS.
Over 5000 Tons on tho Way Arounc
the Horn.

Tomorrow the first of three cargoes of
steel rails is due at this city, which were
ordered some months ago for use on the
Monte Cristo line. The load will be only
800 tons, but the other two ships will bring
in 4,500 tons more. 1t is estimated that a
saving of $4,000 will be effected by bring
ing them around the Horn from Philadel-
phia, the purchasing point.
The rails will be transported from this
city to Hartford over the Seattle, Lake
Shore & Eastern road, and from that place
strung along the line out to the terminus,
which is in the heart of the mining dis
trict.
Tracklaying will commence at once, and
be pushed ahead without delay, in order
to secure all possible advantage from the
present good weather. The road out from
Snohomish to the mines is sixty-three
miles long, and it is thought that the !, 200
tons Will answer to lay the whole line.

York. Several thousand dollars were left to her
by relative. When her education was COM
pleted she came to reside with her
uncle in this city giving to him the care Of her
money. He invested it In different ways. and
finally Miss Moore, through conversations with
friends, became dissatisfied with the Captains

ing and legal measures were resorted to.
Then MissMoore was asked to leave her unces
home. She did SO. and went to reside with the
Bernhardts. Joseph Bernhard had been ac-
cepted as her future husband.
Capt O'Reilley undertook to block the mar
risge BY making application for an appoint
ment Of a guardian over his niece on the
ground that she was an imbecile. This made
her furious. and an elopement was planned to
Buffalo. She and her affianced husband left
