Alleged Jobbery in Sale Of Ia
coma Water Plant.
DETECTIVES WATCHING COUNCIL
JAN Break as COlvills-sale Of Tide
Lands 1t Everett-The Ferndals's
Wreck Finally Abandoned.

TACOMA. Feb. 5.-TSpecial.l- lit is said
that a half dozen or more detectives are
on the trail of the members Of the city
council to ind out if they are concerned
in deal TO benefit by the transfer by sale
OF the light and water plant to the city.
1t /. declared by certain heavy taxpayers
that the price placed on the plant by G. u.
Wright. being ST. $50. 900. if fully twice as
much as it is worth. They. and many
others not as well informed as they, are of
the opinion that if anything like the price
asked is paid, then there is big money"
in the deal.
What angers the opponents of the pur-
chase most and gives them most cause for
impugn.ng the motives of all who favor
buying at the price asked, is the fact that
several individuals and corporations have
changed front, and are as avowedly as
earnest in favor of the plant at 81, $50, 900,
or 81, 500. COO the reduced rate make by Mr..
Wright, as they formerly were opposed to
the purchase.
CounciImen seen today deny any knowl-
edge OF detectives at their heels. They do
not believe that the special water commit
tee went to Philadelphia to escape the de-
tectives.
Heavy taxpayers are commenting on the
action OF the council in appointing a COM
mittee to go to Philadelphia at all. They
hold that if any committee should have
been sent it should have been composed Of
shrewd business men and heavy tax
payers. As the city council cannot pur-
chase the water plant, it is held that the
trip to Philadelphia will do no good.

ALEUT'S BLOODY DEED
He Beat His Wife to Death
and Drained His Babe.
EARTHQUAKES IN ALASKA.
Iuhabitants of Kadiak Island Alarmed
The Protection of Alaska Salmon to
BE Undertakes by Government

KApIAK, Alaska, Jan. 10.-fspecial. r.
Today the North American Commercial
Company's schooner Lesnoy arrived from
Iyaktalak. bringing news of brutal muir
der committed at that nlace, and also
bringing the murderer. The murderer's
name is Stepan EapIonak, and he was
brought to this place by Damian Kockan,
the Tycoon (ehie0 of the Ai~utian settle
ment at which the murder was com mitted.
The details of the murder as told by the
murderer himself are as follows:
The murderer while drunk got into
dispute with his wife, ana in frenzy
picked up rifle and beat her to death,
breaking the stock of the rife and then
etabbing the corpse in many places. There
were no witnesses TO the act, and there is
no evidence OF the tragedy but the dead
woman, the broken gun and the mans
confession.
The murderer's plea is that he was drunk
when he committed the act, but the Aieuts
do not believe that he was, because some
months ago the same man, being disturbed
in his sleep by one of his small children
crying, got out of bed, took the child by
the feet and dashed its brains out against
the wall. got into bed and went 20 sleep
again.
The murderer is now in the charge of
the deputy United States marshal at this
place, but IL is doubtful If sufficient evil
dence can be obtained to hang him.

NEW YoRK, Feb. 5-The Washington

cress by the president and hive members
were out of the city. OF the other eighty
three. three were against annexation and
do not look with favor upon a prutectorate.
These are Jones OF Arkansas, Pugh OF
Alabama. and Cafferty, the new senator
from Louisiana.
Twenty senators decided they were in
favor of annexation, and very generally
agree that protectorate does not 90 tar

PROTECTION OF ALASKA SALMON.

COmmiss taner McDonald's Efforts In
This Direction--A Valuable Industry.
San FRAScIsco, Feb. 5.-Max Praeht,
government agent tor protecting the sal
mon fisheries OF Alaska, has been in
Washington City for some time. and is
now en- route to Alaska. via Ashland, Or,
his former home. Cannery men and others
who are in the business one way and an
other in Alaska have learned that he car
ries orders from the secretary of the inte-
rior directing him to clear Atognak island
OF ali salmon canneries and various intrud-
ers. There are several San + ancisco firms
established On Afognak island, notably
the Royal Packing Company and Russian
American Company. These. it is said,
will be removed. 1t being the intention of
the government TO preserve this island
and its immediate surroundings as per-
manent breeding grounds. To this end
Pracht will not allow any salmon catch
ing in that vicinity.
]. l.. Thompson, Of Sitka, who has ar
rived here, says this is about the most
uncalled-ior move the government has yet
made.
Here In a vast country, with a coast line OF not
only hundreds but thousands of miles, with
many islands scattered along fits shores and
many rivers putting IN from the interior and the
whole literally swarmiug with salmon, yet a
breeding ground has t. be established. Twenty
years from now vii! hs soon enough. We don't
know what 10 do with ali the salmon We have,
let alone trying to get more.
WAsHIssTos CRY. Feb. 5.-United
States Fish Commissioner Mcdonald does
not look for any legislation by the present
congress for the preservation of the SAL
mon fisheries In Alaska, but 1t is his pur-
pose to make a determined effort to secure
legislation on the subject by the next con-
gress. Notwithstanding the elaborate re-
ports submitted, the commissioner says it
is impossible to impress upon Legislators
the Importance of the industry in the
United States and the enormous pecuniary
interests involved.
Commissioner Mcdonald says that if
salmon in Alaskan waters are properly
cared for, the industry would in a short
time be more valuable to the United States
than the sealing interests in Berng sea,
over which there is so much discussion.
Unless some regulat on is soon provided
by congress he fears that the indiscrimi-
nate catch of salmon will be 60 great that
the supply will be exhausted,

Queensland. part of this city is under
water, many houses are submerged to the
second floor, and the water IS still rising.
Bundaberg, Ipswich and Bundamba are
threatened with total demolition. The IN
hahitants have left their houses, and those
who have not fled to higher lands have
taken refuge on roofs. All domestic an
imais and hundreds of cattle have been
drowned. A large loss OF human life is re-
ported, but nothing definite can be ascer-
tanned as to the total number. The mine
near Bundamba has been flooded and seven
miners were drowned.
In Ipswich many houses collapsed.
Goodna is entirely under water, and the
inhabitants took refuge on the hills.
Hundreds are homeless, without shelter
and without food. The loss of property
is enormous. Cattle have been drowned
by thousands, railways washed out and
telegraph lines broken. All regularity OF
travel has ceased. Most railways have
stopped running trains.

Everett Tide Lands Sold.

TACOMA. Feb. 5.-lSpecial. 1.-The Everett
tide land cases were settled yesterday at
Olympia by the purchase of the lands in
question at the price originally fixed by
the local appraisers. After the decision of
the cases by the superior court at Sno-
homish the first of the week the contest
ants permitted the two days allowed for
an appeal to the supreme court to go by,
and Attorney Brownell, for the Everett
Land Company, was on hand at Olympia
to close the purchase from the state. The
company buys q little more than 3,40O
acres, large part of which has little
value except for the purpose of harbor i'm
provements, which the company intends
to make. A smaller portion. directly in
front of the townsite, is of much value for
wharves, warehouses, etc. The settlement
of this question will probably be followed
by the incorporation of the city and the
occupation of part of the tide fats for
business purposes.

THE GREAT NORTHERN FESTIVAL.
500 Capitalists to visit Our City.

The bringing to Seattle of 800 of the
most prominent merchants and manufac-
turers of the United States over Trans
continental Railroad, built without the aid
of government subsidies, but depending
upon its earnings from transportation and
not the sale of lands, will inspire conf
dence in capital and it will seek to invest
in our lumber, coal and general industries
Such investments will give employment to
thousands who will emigrate here TO better
their condition All will require homes;
increased business will increase present
values of property.
Now is the time to purchase and get the
benefit of advances.
