From the BURLINGTON Free Press
Residents Of Vermont have had new interest
in Alaska, the most northern territory of the
United States, since the appointment Of Lyman
E. Knapp of Middlebury governor. and
some OF the facts concerning that far-off land
and its people, as shown by his report, will be
acceptable to our readers. The entire popula-
ton Of the territory was at the last census only
81, 1885, and less than 1000 Of this was white. so
that it will probably be some time be-
fore we have Alaska asking for statehood
The value Of Alaska consists of it's
seal rookeries, leased by the North
American Commercial Company. the peltries
brought in by the hunters of the Alaska Com
mercial Company and by natives in exchange
for goods. the canneries Of salmon, cod and
halibut, and the mines, or rather ''placers,' -
where gold is found in the wash Of the river,
only one or two attempts having as yet been
made at quartz mining. The total exports from
| all these sources amounted last year to ST.
759,O64. The most costly furs after those Of the
seal are those of the sea otter, marten, silver.
white and red foxes, mink and bear skins.
These, with few other skins, were of an aQ-
gregate value of s34s.9 As against Ell
759.064 Of exports. the imports Of merchandise
and machinery only amounted to 81. 1874 23S.
The government has provided for the delivery
OF m ails at the principal settlements, but it ia
irregular, and generally the rate of delivery ia
| about one mail q month. There are forty.
seven stores in eastern Alaska, and eighty
| trading stations extending along the coast.

Trade Of this sort can flourish in a way. but

| agricultural territory. The cereals win moi
ripen there, the grass cannot be dried into hay
| and only potatoes and turnips can be grown in
few specially favored spots.
The government has established schools n,
different points for the education of INDIAN
children. which seems to be making some pro

THE COURT OF APPEALs.
Gossip As to Who Mr. Cleveland May Ap-
point Judges.

point Judges
The question most prominent in local legal
circles at the present time is, who will consti-
tute the District Court Of Appeals? President
elect Cleveland will make the appointments, and
it is Of course hoped that he will select
local men to fill the bench. But while
it is hoped that local men only will be ap-
pointed. it can hardly be said that such a So
much desired thing is expected. In the
opinion of not few about the city
hall Martin V. Montgomery of Michigan
late judge Of the Supreme Court of the Dis
trict will be one OF the three justices of the
court of appeals. tie was appointed to the
District bench by President Cleveland.
and it il generally believed that if
he so desires he will be made
a member of the new court. Another man. not
n resident Of the District. who is generally be-
lieved to stand very good chance is Repre-
sentative Hemphill of South Carolina. Many
believe that more members of the present
Supreme Court of the District will be pro-
NOTED to seats on the bench of the court of ap-
peals. and among those most prominently men
toned are Chief Justice Bingham and Judges
Cox and Hagner.
Among those members Of the bar of the Dis
trict mentioned likely to be appointed are
Martin f. Morris. Il. Ross Perry, J. ]. OAR
lngton, II. o. Claughton and Henry Z. Davis.

Safety Platform to be Required by q Regu-
Iation of the Commissioners.

A Safety Platform to be Required by q Regu-
Istion of the Commissioners.
On and after May the 10, 1898, the several
railroad companies of the city which operate
their cars by motive power other than horses
will be required to attach safety platforms
and other devices to their cars to prevent ACCT
dents.
This is the gist Of a regulation that will be
passed at an early day by the Commissioners
and made part of the police regulations.
The readers of The STAR are familiar with
the investigation by the Commissioners of
the subject of tenders for street cars,
and Capt. Rossell, while in Boston last
week, looked into the matter considerably
This morning upon his return to the office
he called the attention Of the Commissioners to
the system in vogue in Boston and said he
thought 1t answered every purpose. He de-
scribed how a platform provided for the
front OF the car which would strike an
object on the track ami roll il on the
platform. He said. however. that IL the object
was lying down he did not believe that the ex-
tended platform would be of any more service
than the tenders how used on the cars in
this city. As the matter is still in the
hands Of the engineer department it is
understood that the recommendation relating
TO an improved fender will come from it. and
also that Capt. Fiebeger will look into the mat
ter at length.
