BRAVING DEATH FOR GOLD.
Two Prospectors Bring the story OF thu

Two Prospectors Bring the story OF thu
Battle ON tho San Juan.
DOLORES, Col, Jan. 3.-George Findley
and Martin Galligan, prospectors, have
reached here from the scene OF the battle
in the San Juan gold field.
They say the trouble was caused chiefly
by the Gable Mining Company locating
claims under fictitious names, while the
old prospectors knew their rights and
were bound to protect them or die in the
attempt.
James Cody, better known as "Blind
jim" notorious gambler, with a record
as bad man, with a crowd OF men said 10
be in the employ Of the Gable Mining
Company, asserted their rights to the
claims and attempted to stop the propect-
ors from working. At night, "Blind
Jim" and his gang attempted to remov,
the stakes marking the mining claim
but found the prospectors on guard.
There are conflicting stories as to which
side fired first, but over two hundreS
shots were fired and the battle LASTED
more than an hour. When il was Over
"Blind jim" and George Ferguson,
prospector, were dead and about thirteen
wounded.

WAsHISoToN, Jan. 3-surprise is ex-
pressed in the government departments at
the result of the trials held at Victoria, b.
C., of the sealing vessels seized in Bering
Sea during last season.
The dispatches state that the two Brit

No pretence is made that they had not
violated the modus vivendi, but various
excuses are offered for their discharge.
fhis is a repetition OF the experience of
last year OF two British vessels seized by
ihe United States naval officers i'm 1891
and turned over to the British for trial.

WARRINGTON, Jan. 3.--AIl work on the
eleventh census will be completed and
turned over to the secretary OF the inter-

by the appropriation bill now being

The clause providing that the work

meets with the appreciation of Supt.
Porter, who says IL can be done I'm thai

were not all distributed until after the
present census was organized, the last
two volumes being sent out as late as 1859.

AT the last session OF Congress the
House insisted upon reduction to a sum
That should be sufficient only until the

that the expense attached TO the taking

tistics, prepared on education, churches.
Insurance, Indians, fish and fisheries, hor-
ticulture, irrigation, viticulture, street
railway statistics, water transportation
and other subjects.
"The fact is," said Mr.. Potter, "the
eleventh census, when the great extent
and variety OF the statistical work actual
~ completed Is considered, has been a
marvel OF economy. The leading colleges
OF the country have endorsed and many
are using our bulletins as text books for
their classes in finance, economics, engi-
neerlng, sociology and many other impor-
tant studies. Canada and Austria, and
within the past few months Italy, have
adopted our system Of tabulation. States
men OF all shades OF political faith, scien-
tine men, students OF all classes both AT
home and abroad, have adopted the
eleventh census as the most advanced
statistical work yet accomplished by any
government. Innumerable letters on file
In the census Office attest these facts. I
hope the committee will grant the addi- |
Iional appropriation needed to finish the
work"

DISCREDIT THE STORY.

Friends OF Tascott, the Supposed chicago
Murderer. Think He is Dead.
CHICAGO, Jan. 3.-Thc police do not
believe tho story that William Tascott { he
supposed murderer of Millionaire Smell, Is
In Alaska, or the story that well-known
Chicagoans and not Tasco.t were the mur-
derers.
The pursuit Of Tascott has never been
abandoned. Inspector Ross, who has had
charge Of the case, yesterday stated that
on the morning after the murder there
were found In the Smell mansion certain
articles which were identified as belong
ing to Tascott by Jennie Clifford, a woman
with whom Tascott was intimate. Later
on the police had traced Tascott to st.
Paul.
A theory, vouched for by friends of the
missing man, is that he was killed by
emissaries OF those interested in Smells
death. They think the fugitive never
reached Winnipeg, although that was his
probable destination. They maintain
that he was overtaken and killed in north
western Minnesota. His body, they claim
Is concealed somewhere in the unsettled
parts of the state and they blame his ac-
completes In Chicago for his inexplicabl.
