THE LANDS VALUABLE
Reason England Would Like
to Fix the Boundary.
A GOVERNMENT AGENTS VIEWS
The Alaskan Territory She Now Claims
Has Been Considered Ours Since
the Seward Purchase.

Washington, Sept. 27.-It is much
to be feared that England will take
away valuable slice Of Alaska which
no doubt properly belongs to this gov
ernment George r. Tingle, who
passed many years in Alaska, and who
was there ten years ago, says that all
the traditions of the oldest inhabitants
in Alaska, together with the knowledge
of the Indians, has been that the Rus
sian possessions which were sold to the
United States covered all that territory
which has always beena considered as
belonging to the United States ever
since the Seward purchase. 1t is only
since the discovery was made that the
lands are valuable that England has
begun to reach out for them. Her sur
yeyors, doubtless acting under instruc-
tions, have included in the territory to
be claimed lands which have always
been known as Russian America pre-
vious to the purchase, and since that
time as Alaska. Mr.. Tingle says there
ought to be little difficulty in estab-
fishing our claim to the territory as it
has always been known, but intimates
that it will take some stiff standing up
on the part of our government.
Mr.. Tingle has had great deal to
do with our seal fisheries, and for
time was government agent in Alas
ka; afterwards an agent Of the Alaska
Seal Company. He says that the policy
pursued by the United States has re-
suited in the loss of our seal fisheries,
and that British poachers have secured
the benefit Of our sealing grounds.
Commissioner of Indian Affairs
Browning has made his annual report
to the secretary of the interior. 1t
shows progress in nearly all directions.
The only new important developments
during the year was the trouble be-
tween the Bannock Indians and the
whites at Jackson's Hole, Wyo. On
this matter Commissioner Browning
encloses former special report he
made August II. Since the report,
however, the whole matter had been
taken to the department of justice, and
the attorney general had reported that
no Indians are confined in Wyoming
for violating the game laws of that
state those who were held having been
allowed to escape. The department Of
justice does not see how redress can be
obtained for the Indians who paid their
fines. Commissioner Browning quotes
from recent reports of Agent Teter to
show that the Indians are still sullen,
and that they demand that the whites
who wronged them be punished. and
the commissioner asks whether or not
the department Of justice cannot do
something towards Furnishing the
offenders.
Secretary Smith has decided that the
mineral land commissioners in Mon
tana and Idaho shall continue the work
of making examinations of land in the
Northern Pacific grants The commits
sioners were stopped by reason of the
appropriation being exhausted, but it
has been determined that under the
law the commissioners must continue
work even if deficiency is created.

A CHOLERA SCARE.
Rumors OF the Dreaded Disease in San
Francisco Had No Foundation.

Rumors of the Dreaded Disease in San
Francisco Had No Foundation.
San Francisco, Sept. 27.-The warm
weather today must have been the
means of starting more than one unfor-
tunate rumor that cholera had broken
out in this city. The story doubtless
had its origin in some idle remarks,
such as regular cholera weather" 1t
was, however, sufficient to put both
the quarantine officer, DR.. Chamebrs,
and the health officer, DIR. Lovelace, on
the qui vive. They made inquiries of
case that Policeman Mahoney on the
water front had heard of man ON
steamer who had heard from somebody
else that somewhere in the city there
were three cases that looked like"
cholera. Mahoney said tonight:
II first heard the rumor on the wa
ter front, and finally traced its source
to the ticket collector of the North Pa
cific Coast railroad at Sausalito ferry.
He told me that passenger on the
2:15 boat had remarked to him that
there were three cases of cholera in the
city. The ticket collector asked him
where they were, and the passenger
said he did not know. He had obtain
ed his information from bulletin
board up town, and did not stop to read
particulars. When reported off as
the harbor police station some of the
men had heard the story, but the cases
had run up to four and six. This is
all l know regarding the story"

AFFAIRS IN SAMOA.
Peculiar Action Of British Consul in
Treating with q Rebel.

Treating with Rebel
Apia, Samoa, Sept. 28.-There has
been much unfavorabile comment here
recently in regard to the action of Act
ing British Consul Woodford and the
German consul. The British consul
made visit to the headquarters Of the
rebel party, under Tamasese, and in
duced Tamasese to visit Apia, where
he entertained them at the consulate
and drove him about town in his own
carriage, finally taking him to the Ger
man consulate, where King Malietoa
had been brought before. The signifi-
canoe Of this action lies in the atti-
tu6e in which Tamasese, who is the
son of the former German puppet
king Of that name, has all along been
held. The present Tamasese recently
defed the authority of the warships
here representing the United States,
Great Britain and Germany, and he is
at present sheltering prisoners under
sentence by the supreme court, who
succeeded in making their escape.
The Samoan Herald, a paper pub
lished by an Englishmsn, in comment
ing upon this incident, condemns the
British consul severely, and says that
the residents of Samoa have seen the
strange spectacle of an acknowledged
rebel, Tamasese, not only allowed to
enter Apia with impunity, but actually
appearing as the intimate friend of her
Britannia maiesty's representative,
Consul Woodford. The paper also de.
clares that this action Of the British
consul will imply to the semi-savage
mind Of Tamasese that he can be assur-
ed Of the powerful protection Of Great
Britain. The natives belonging to the
kings party are much incensed at the
conduct of the British consul. Consul
Mulligan refuses to be party to any
dealings with the man who has insult
cd and defied the Samoan government,
as recognized by the three powers
There is the usual talk among the ma
tives of fighting at an early date. The
last few days Mr.. Woodford has been
succeeded by British Consul Cusack-
Smith, who has returned from Fiji.
United States Consul Mulligan will
leave here by the next steamer, and his
place will be filled by w. Blackjack,
who has held the post before.
The business of Samoa is greatly de-
pressed. The cocoanut crop has result
ed badly, and the staple product
cobra-is greatly reduced in quantity.

THE NEW STEAMER LINE.
Much Interest Attaches to That From
the Sound to Central America.

Much Interest Attaches to That From
the Sound to Central America.
San Francisco, Sept, 27.-Shipping
men are taking great interest in the
new line Of steamers to run from Puget
sound to Central America. The first
Of these has now started from the sound
with load of general merchandise for
San Jose dc Guatemala. When she
cleared IL was not expected that she
would stop at this port.
1t Is thought that II the profitable
Central American trade, which has
been such help to the Pacific Mail
Company, in time Of its adversely,
gives the new steamers sufficient en-
couragement, they will eventually stop
at San Francisco and enter into direct
competition with the Pacific coast
steamers now running to the Sound,
and with the regular boats from this
port to Mexican and Central American
points.
The organization. Of this new line
follows 80 closely upon the announce
ment from the East that the Panama
railroad was arranging to add three
steamers to its feet and to enter Cen
tral American trade that the conclusion
is drawn that the Chilberg steamers
will enter traffic arrangement with
the railroad across the isthmus. 1t is
stated that the Panama railroad stands
ready to charter space in Chilberg's
steamers at as high price as may be
necessary to keep the boats running in
opposition to the Pacific Mail. Under
the law the Panama road il compelled
to charge the same rate on freight to
all who offer it under like circum.
stances and conditions for shipment
across the isthmus.

Waite Called For.

Ex-Governor Waite. of Colorado, was
among those who went to Woodstock
during the afternoon and he was in the
hall in the evening. There We're loud
calls for a speech from him after Debs
had finished his address, and he was
greeted with cheers as he came to the
front of the platform. Hersaid, in sub
stance:
ut is with pride that I lay my tribute
of respect at the feet of Eugene V. Debs.
A stain has been put upon the judiciary
of the state, the constitution has been
violated by the imprisonment of Debs.
The decision of the courts in the bred
Scott decision was to apply to the
slaves of the south. The decision
reduced to slavery all men. The
United States Supreme Court is COM
posed of men selected by the corpora
tions. When the constitution was adopt
ed, corporations were only theoretical.
The Pacific railway and the demoneti-
cation of silver are examples of the de
moralized condition of the legislative
portion of the government. The debauch-
ment of the United States courts is only
another step in that direction. 1t would
be far better that President Cleveland
or any Republican manage the railways
of the country than they be managed
by European Rothchilds. The only way
out of the difficulty is for the govern
ment to control the railways and the tel
egraphs and all similar things.
Several local speakers followed eX-tioV-
ernor Waite and it was very late when
the meeting broke up.

FAT JOBS.
A CANVASS NOW BEING MADE OF
THEM.
Two to Seven Candidates For Each
Being the Most Sought After.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 22.-The can
vass for the principal offices at the
disposal of the House of Representa-
tives, which opened in slow and
quiet fashion this week, is becoming
more animated as the time approaches
for the Republican caucus, which is
announced for Saturday of next week.
The elective offices of the House are
those of a clerk of house, salary
5000; ergeant-at-arms, $4,000; door
keeper, SO, 500; postmaster, 81, 500; chap
lain, $500. There are from two to
seven candidates for each of these
places, the highest being in the race
for chaplain.
There are only two candidates for
the House clerkship. They are eX-
Congressman Thomas ]. Henderson, of
Illinois. and ex-Congressman Alex Nc
Dowall of Pennsylvania. These had
failed of denomination last year. Mr..
Mcdowell began his canvass a year
ago. and as soon, as it became apDar-
emit that the Republicans would have
the house It is claimed that he has
the solid support of the New York
and Pennsylvania delegations. This
claim is made the basis of opposition
on the part of Mr.. Henderson's adj
herents, as also the fact that the
speakership is conceded to Mr.. Reed,
who also comes from an eastern
state.
Captain T. H. Mckee. of Indiana,
secretary of the epubIican congress
sional campaign committee, and Mr..
B. Russell, Of Missouri, are so far the
only announced candidates for the of
flee of sergeant-at-arms. Each has
his state delegation behind him and
Mr.. Russell is understood to be work
ing in conjunction with the MCDOWELL
forces. Mr.. Mckee, however. has the
advantage of a more extended political
acquaintance.
There has been some talk among
members of the Minnesota delegation
of again bringing out Mr.. Reed, Of
that state, who was a defeated candi-
date for this Office in the Fifty-First
Congress, for sergeant-at-arms. A Mr..
Hartshorn, of Iowa. has also been
mentioned in this connection.
The principal candidates for door
keeper are Mr.. Glenn. of New York
and w L. Upton, of Tennessee. Glenn
state politics for some years and Tip
ton is the editor of a newspaper at
Cleveland. Tenn.
Henry Sherwood so far is the only
pronounced candidate for the House
postmastership. He halls from Michi-
gan and was House postmaster during
the Forty-third and Forty-seventh
Congresses, and also postmaster in the
city of Washington for four years
under President Harrison's appoint
ment. 1t is considered probable that
Ohio may bring out a candidate for
either this office or that of door
keeper.
OF the several candida ties for chap
1ain. six are WASHINGTON preachers.
They are Revs. Ramsdell and Easton,
Presbvterians: Parsons and Gottwald.
Lutherans; Brown and Smith. Bap-
list The outsider in the list is Rev.
Mr.. Fisher, of Kansas.
The patronage of the House consists
outside of clerks of committees and
clerks of members of 1876 places, the
average of the salaries paid being
SLIPS. All the places except those
named are filed by appointment.

also made.

Observation-Disclosures C0ppinSer Makes
His Report For the Year.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 22.-In his an
nual report Brigadier General John G.
Copplnger, commanding the depart
ment of the Platte, says that the only
disturbance last year necessitating the
use of troops. occurred last July in
the jackson Hole country. AS he made
this the subject of a special report to
the secretary of war, he gives but a
pref of the facts in this report and
sides with the Indians, as he did in
his September report.
General Coppinger says that on a
thorough inspection he found that all
the troops We're we'll instructed and in
good condition for service
He believes that in sobriety inteIli-
gence and department at least, the
enlisted personnel has greatly improv-
ed in the past ten years. A further
elevation is thought feasible, however,
by forming the artisans into a sepa-
rate corps, dividing the privates and
rearranging the pay. There was an in
crease in the number of trials during
the year and the general believes that
it would be we'll to empower company
commanders to punish offhand slight
breaches of discipline and to author
ize garrison courts to dishonorably dis
charge men.

Morton Says He Sees No Objection
to Cleveland Accepting 1t.

spent the day at st. Louis. He arrived
here this morning from the east and
after breakfasting at the Planters no.
tel. went across the river to East St
Louis. where he inspected the national
stock yards. He returned to the city
this afternoon and this evening he left
for Chicago to visit his sons who are
in business there.
In the course of an interview Secre-
tary Morton said:
"Why should President Cleveland be
opposed to a third term any more
than a bank president? This is not
stating that President Cleveland is a
candidate for a third term, for as to
that, no one knows but himself. The
talk of a third term has been confined
only to newspapers and there is no
one can say that he has ever heard
Mr.. Cleveland give an expression on
the subject 1 am not in a position to
state whether Mr.. Cleveland will be q
candidate or not. There is one thing
I can say, however, the management
of the government is a business, as is
the management of bank. In a bank
the business is entirely confined to the
mana cement of finances. If a bank
president has proven himself compe-
tent and faithful. he is reelected, not
only once or twice, but dozen times
or more The business of govern
ment is that of managing and preserv-
ing the interests of the people of ma
ton and maintaining life, liberty and
property and if a bank president is
elected many times. why should it not
he so with the president of the United
StateS?"

for the statement that Francis NJ.
Hatch, the new Hawaiian minister
does not go to Washington to ask for

to refute a well-defned rumor. Mr.
Hatch will use his best endeavors to

officials state that nothing else will

The most important question now

ton of a petition asking for the pardon

holds, assistant secretary of the in
terror, in his annual report, recon-
mends legislation which will define
with more certainty the pensionable
r.ehts OF minor children under the
act of June 81, 1890, in those cases
w ere the soldier dies, leaving no

the act on this point now resting in

children being sustained only by i'm
plication.
