San Francisco, Cal. Sept. 27.-The
whaling schooner Nicotine, Captain B.
N Tilton, has reached port from Fox
island, Alaska, after a passage of
twenty-six days. She brought nearly
$4,000 pounds of whalebone, bear
skins, fox skins and 500 pounds OF
Ivory
Captain Tilton confirms the loss of
the schooner Emily Schroeder. The
vessel was wrecked in Marryat's inlet,
Point Hope, October .13, 1894. At the
same time the schooner Silver Wave
was ashore in the sand, but resting
easily.
A fearful gale was blowing at the
| time and the Nicotine lost two of her
lanchors and considerable of the chain
The heavy sea washed over the point
and the natives fled to the hill, fear
ing that they would be engulfed by the
rising water. At one of the whaling
stations the water was two feet deer
| in the house and boats were f1oat ting al
iaround. 1t was the hardest gale that
| Captain Tilton ever experienced. Plen-
| ty Of wreckage was picked up by the
natives.
In July last at Point Hope the ice
was very thick, but all vessels ha6
passed the point by the 18th, on theil
way north. The Andrew Hicks is re-
ported having three white whales
| In speaking of missionary work il
Alaska, Captain Tilton says:
Il think the government should d.
something for the natives of Alaska
as they are a quiet and intelligent rae,
of people and are anxious to live Xix,
lcivilized people. The missionaries
should be looked after and good men
and especially women, should go t.
Alaska. Men should be sent that
native would respect-not men that ar
filthier than the natives themselves.

China VIII Ultimately Win.

Vancouver, B. c., Sept. 27.-Captain
Onslow, late commander of the flagship
Of the British Asiatic squadron, was a
passenger by the Empress of India, en-
route home on sick leave. He says al
though the Japanese have the best of
the fight SO far, he thinks that China
will ultimately win. Native enthusi-
asm, he says, in Japan is most intense,
and not only are large numbers volun-
teering for active service, but private
subscriptions amounting to a large fund
have been contributed by rich and poor
alike, the sums being contributed even
from the 'yoshi waria" or demi-monde
quarters of the cities. Captain Onslow
says Japan's army is one Of the best
disciplined he has ever seen and its
equipments are first-class.

Northern Pacific Sensation.

Milwaukee,, Wis, Sept. PA sensa-
ton developed in the United States
circuit court today when the Northern
Pacific receivers petition for authority
to issue new certificates came on for
hearing. 1t transpired that instead of
wanting s2,00O,000 for the purpose of
refunding the receivers certificates fall
ling due October /, the receivers want
ed to issue new certificates to the
amount OF $5,0O00O0, and instead of be-
ing amicable arrangements, there was
bitter opposition on the part of Bray
ton Ives and associates.
Judge Jenkins made an order ad-
journing the case until 2 o'clock Satur-
day with the understanding that If by
noon Saturday Ives has deposited the
amount necessary to pay the certifi-
Gates coming due, $2,1539S5, the hearing
may then be adjourned to some evening
next week in Chicago. The receivers
propose to make the new certificates
payable July 1, 1897.

PROPOSED RAILWAY.
1t Will he Called the San Francisco,
Stockton d San Joaquin.


San Francisco, Sept. 27.-The project
for a railroad down the San Joaquin
valley, in competition with the South
ern Pacific railroad, has been entered
into by the Traffic association, and five
trustees were elected.
An agreement has been drawn up
and signed by the trustees and will
also be signed by each of the subscrib-
ers. 1t is covenanted that the stock
shall be placed in the hands of Isaac
| Upham, T. w. Van SHlklen, b. F. Dun
| ham. Thomas Magee and Alvinza Hay
| ward for ten years. They will vote for
| the board of directors and such officers
as are usually chosen by the stock
| holders, and are under contract to main
| tain and operate a competing road
| from the Bay of San Francisco via
| Fresno to some point in kerne county,
probably Bakersfield.
| The name of the new line is to be
the San Francisco, Stockton & San
Joaquin Railroad company, with a capt.
tai stock of $4,000 600, although it is be-
| lieved $4000,000 will be ample for con-
struction and rolling stock. No sub
scription to the stock is to be valid I'M
| less S350,00 be obtained, and at the end
of ten years the stock is to be de-
| livered to the holders of trustees GER
| tificates
| Subscriptions in San Francisco will
be solicited at once, and Traffic Man
ager Leeds believes that in ten days
sufficient funds will be obtained to war
rant incorporation. Construction will
be commenced from Stockton south. 1t
is expected that right of way will be
given by the San Joaquin valley people.
l The new road expects to reduce local
1 freight 40 per cent To prevent the
road from purchase and absorption by
a competitor, the power to vote the SUBJ
scribed and issued stock will be vested
in the trustees and pledged to maintain
and operate the road strictly as a COM
lpeting line. Vacancies in board OF
| trustees are to be filled by a majority
of the surviving trustees, each new
trustee being pledged as the original
five. Stock will be represented by GER
tificates issued by the trustees to sub
scribers, among whom any profits arts
ing from the operation of the road shall
be divided If any consolidation OF
amalgamation be made with another
company, the trustees must obtain a
majority of the capital of the con-
jsolidated corporation

THE WAR DEFERRED.
Prospect of Rate Cutting Not So
Good as Formerly.


Portland, Ore, Sept. 27.-The likeli-
hood of a trans-continental passenger
rate war is lessening, but not removed,
by an agreement between the Southern
Pacific and the Oregon Railway &
Navigation company, regarding San
Francisco business. By its terms both
companies recede more or less from the
positions they have heretofore taken
and each makes concessions to the
other.
The Oregon Railway & Navigation
differentials are reduced from $3.50
first class to Sc, and from So on second
class tickets to 81, under the estab-
lished all-rail rates from San Francisco
to the east. This concession of $3.50 in
it's differential on first class tickets and
81 on second class is offset, in meas
ure, by the Southern Pacific's agreeing
to accept ticket representation of the
Oregon Railway g. Navigation at Port
land.
The Southern Pacific had previously
refused to accept ticket representation
for San Francisco, any part of which
read over the Oregon Railway & Navi-
cation, though it accepted it from the
Great Northern reading via the
Northern Pacific from Seattle to Port
land.

Chinese Claim "a Draw,

Washington, Sept. 27.-An official of
the Chinese legation said today that
information from the viceroy at Tien
Tsin regarding the fight at the mouth
of the Yalu river was to the effect that
it was a. drawn battle. Regarding the
Ping Yang fight, the Chinese admit de-
feat, but no details of the battle have
been received. No official confirmation
has been received by the minister of
the legation of the degradation of Lii
Hung Chang by the deprivation Of the
peacock feather and the yellow jacket.
1t is asserted that even should such be
the case, the viceroy still retains all
the powers exercised by him prior to
the degradation

THE MONETARY CONFERENCE.

Washington. Sept. 27.-The proposals to
hold the monetary conference of the
countries of North and South America
has not advanced so the meeting can be
held in October as contemplated. The
United States has as yet neither ac-
cepted nor declined, but 1t is hardly
likely to accept at this late day. 1t Is
felt now that the time set for the con-
ference was too soon after the invitations
and this may lead to an extension of the
date, so the United States and other
countries may have time to accept If
they desire

The answer of President Woodruff
to the Tribune regarding his utterance
at Provo recently, and the future po-
sition to be maintained by the heads of
the Mormon church, was manly, fair
and to the point. To say that, because
a man holds prominent position in
any church, is bar to action or partic-
ipation on his part in the politics of
his country, is absurd and foolish in
