A yu,son Rnil,.oad proiect.

San Francisco. Aug. T7.-Ths gold miners
of the Yukon region are anxious for bet
ter means OF getting in and out OF the
country and particularly for better mail
facilities. Early in the season meeting
of Yukon pioneers was held at Forty-Mne
Creek. and the Canadian government was
memorialized TO authorize the construc-
ton OF railroad from Baku bay to Tat
lin lake. the headwaters OF the Hoota-
linka river. a distance OF about sixty
miles. From here there Is unimpeded
steamboat navigation to the mouth OF the
Yukon. OF which the HootaIinka Is a trib-
utary. A part OF this railroad would be
IN United States territory. and for this
part OF the undertaking the authority OF
the United States would have to be Sc
cured.

Populists to Notify Bryan and watson.

Washington City, Aug. 1.-THE Star
says: The Star can state positively that
Bryan Is 20 be formally and officially noti-
fed Of the Popuiist.c nomination at st.
Louis. Tom Watson viii be notified at
the same time. This may sound strange.
IN view OF the statement Of Chairman But
leF that Weaver and F1eids'were not noti-
fed four years ago. with the inference
that went with IL, that. despite the pro-
test OF Populist Batemsn and others. Bry-
an would not be notified. At no time, how
ever. did Chairman Butler say In positive
words that there would b no notification.
1t seems from what can be gathered by a
Star reporter that the pressure for the
notification of the Populist nominee has
been too heavy for those opposed TO such
a course TO resist. and that the managers
of the Populist campaign have finally como
to the conclusion that notification must be
made There will be no big meeting like
that in New York. but Senator Allen viii

Another Murder on Columbia River.

Astoria, Or. Aug. 2T.-Coroner Pohls
investigation OF the reported suicide of
John Svenson. a fisherman. at Clifton this
morning. makes II appear that IL was
case of murder instead of suicide. Sven
son was the keeper OF "a scow from
which a woman and two men. whose
dead bodies were afterward found. cisap-
peared during the fishermen's strike a few
months ago. IT is suTmised that Svenspn
knew something OF the nurderers OF these
people, and under the stimulus OF the re-
ward offered by the county court Syenson
was about 10 make some damaging dis
closure. and for this reason 1t Is be-
lieyed. he was murdered. The matter will
be more fully investigated.
