A GREAT LAND GRAB.

Rich Mines in Alaska are Put Under Ca
madam Rule - American Government
Made No Objection.
PoRr TOWNSEND, Wash, Aug 13,--
The richest gold placer mines of Alaska
have been transferred to Canadian ter
ritory, and miners are now paying
miners tax to British authorities. The
territory in question is from three to
eight miles in width, and embraces the
rich placer claims on Glacier and Nil
Ter creeks, which heretofore were sup
posed to be in Alaska territory. These
statements are made by Capt William
Moore. Canadian mail carrier between
Victoria and Fort Cudahy, N. W. I.
He has just returned from taking the
first mail TO Yukon miners on British
territory.
Errors in the old survey were discov-
cred late last autumn and during the
winter Prof. Ogilbee, who now has
charge of corps of British engineers
engaged in locating the boundary be-
tween the two countries, made the
corrections, transferring a strip of ter
ritory from three to eight miles wide
from Alaska to Canada. Over 200 min
ers were affected. These the Canadian
mounted police Immediately compelled
to pay miners taxes.
Moore says there can be no doubt as
to the correctness of the new survey.
All of the Miller and Glacier creeks
and parts of several other streams rich
in gold digging are now claimed by
the British authorities 1t appears the
miners concluded that the United
States government did not care enough
for the territory to establish govern
mcnt fort, inasmuch as Prof Ogilbeo
was permitted to locate such boundary
lines rs he chose without the assist
auce of American officials, and no eff
forts were made to prevent the police
from enforcing their regulations over
that portion OF Alaska.

DEFEAT FOR STRIKERS.

A Cleveland Judge Refuses TO Grant the
Injunction Asked for by Former Em-
ploy-s OF the Brown HoisinG woris
CLEVELAND, Aug. 13.-When Judge
Noble on Wednesday gave his opinion
in the injunction suit commenced by
the locked out men against the Brown
Hosting Co. it became clear to the
former that they had given up first
blood in the courts. The application
for restraining order against the city
was denied, as an order to prevent the
calling out OF additional forces now
that all the militia had been with
drawn would be useless and q mere
formality. BY the removal Of the mi
litia the relief prayed for had been
substantially granted. So far as the
company itself was concerned the
court said he hardly felt called upon to
grant o temporary restraining order
under the general allegations OF the
petition, which had been met with q
general denial, sworn to by the vice
president and manager Of the COM
pany.
A feature of the decision was the
fact that slight censure was admins
tered to the mayor and municipality
for letting the petition go unanswered.
While it contained serious charges and
due notice had been served on the Off
cial of the fling of the petition in the
courts Mayor McRisson had made no
denial, though, perhaps, under the
rules of practice he was not called
upon to DO so. The only claim made
by counsel for the city was that the
mayor had exercised proper discre-
tionary power; that the court had no
jurisdiction over him in that respect
and that he can in no way be called to
account for it.
AS soon as the decision on the tenn
porary restraining order to reduce
forces had been given Attorney Rus
sell moved that date be set for a hear
ing of the mandatory. This will let
ont the city and is only directed at
the enforcement OF the agreement en-
tered into between the company and
It's men. The state board of arbitra-
ton, which made thorough investiga-
ton into the difficulties may be sum-
moned as witnesses at the hearing.
Judge Noble notified Attorney Russell
to reduce his motion to writing 1t
will probably be granted and the peti-
tion for mandatory injunction heard
early next week.

4 Spanish General Boards the Butcher In
His Den and n Duel is Narrowly Avorted'
New YORK, Aug. 1S.-A dispatch to
the Recorder from Havana says: Gen.
Weyler and Gen. Ochando were the
principals in sensational affair which
occurred shortly before the latter
sailed for Spain. 1t seems that the
death of Gen. 0chando's nephew, who
was lieutenant in the Spanish army,
was the cause of the trouble. There
were ugly rumors In circulation re-
hecting on the young lieutenant 1t
was alleged that he was conducting q
reasonable correspondence with Max
imo Gomez, the insurgent chief. When
Weyler heard of the rumors he sum
moned the young man to the palace
and questioned him. Weyler was ap-
parently satisfied of the young mans
guilt and told him if he did not commit
suicide within "a hours he would be
court-martialed and shot. The heu-
tenant left the palace, went to his
room and in six hours was corpse,
having shot himself through the heart.
Shortly afterward Gen. ochando ar
rived in Havana and learned the true
story of his nephew's death. Ochando
was greatly enraged and Immediately
went to the palace to call Weyler to ae'
count. The meeting of the generals
was sensational. Ochando denounced
Weyler in the bitterest terms, alleging
that the lieutenant was guiltless and
| had been driven to his death. Ochandc
termed Weyler murderer and butcher
and challenged him to duel Both
men drew swords and would have
fought in the palace but for the inter
ference Of other officials. Two day

BRIDGEpoRT, Conn, Aug. 1S.-The
Beach Side inn, fashionable hotel at
Green's Farms, was robbed by five
masked burglars early Monday morn
ing. The thieves secured about S1,SOo
in cash and 81, 900 in checks which had
been left in the Office safe. Patrick
lIartigan, the waechman, tells a story
not very satisfactory to the police.
lie says he was surrounded by five or
six masked men on the beach in front
of the hotel about 2 o'clock. They
bound and gagged him and carried
him to the veranda. There they pro-
cured from him the key to the Office
and entered. A heavy charge of dyna-
mite was placed in a hole drilled in
the safe and the explosion which fol-
lowed shook the house.
The 1O9 guests, nearly all from New
York, sprang from their beds, but Mrs.
Harry B. Smith, of New York, the
first to appear, was met by masked
robber, who pointed pistol at her
head and told her to return to her
room. She did so. The other guests
were met with similar command and
they also obeyed. The robbers cut the
telephone wires leading from the place
and were nowhere to be found when
the police were put on their track.
