AS TO
Gov. James S~heakley Makes His An
nual Repo t.

Washington, Nov, 20. - James
Sheo'itey. governor of Alaska has
submitted his annual report to the
secretary of the interior of the geu-
eral conditions Of the territory. He
SAYS:
Notwithstanding the unfavorable
climatic conditions of the spring and
early summer months, many new en-
terprises were entered upon and old
ones completed. The fisheries have
been successful, the mines have
yielded profitable returns, the popula-
ton has been largely augmented by
immigration, and the people have en-
joyed a season of unusual progress
and prosperity. The civil officers
have been yigilant and faithful in the
discharge of their duties, and in view
of the extent of the territory over
which they exercise authority and the
absence OF transportation and other
facilities indispensable for the execu-
ton of the law, crime Is less frequent
and law and order quite as well en-
forced as n some of the more dense
ly pOpa!ated and highly civilized COM
munities.

st. Louis, Nov. 20.-The majority of

have closed down for an indefinite
period. This course is made neces-
sary, the millers claim, because OF
the congestion Of the market, and
more especially by the advanced
freight rate to the Eastern seaboard
Of about % cents a barrel. This ac-
ton of the st. Louis millers Is entire
ly Independent of the action of the

whereby a shutdown of six weeks
