Frank Champion Tell Of the Hardships on the
Alaskan Gold Trails

Victoria, Sept. 5.-Among the passen-
gers who arrived on the Queen from
Skaguay, today. was Frank |. Cramp-
ton Of Mount Vernon. Wash. He went
up To look over the situation and took
a trip over both passes. He says that
the killing of horses was caused largely
by novices who do not know how to
lead them. In many instances the
pack saddles are allowed to wear great
holes in the horses backs.
The men who are fixing the trail will
be the first to profit by it. This has
been decided by the vigilance commit
tee and no man can go on the trail with
packs without certificate from the
secretary that he has done so much
work on ii.
One man whom Mr.. Champion saw
had gotten nearly all of his outfit over
when the trail was closed for travel
The committee refused to let him take
the remainder of his pack over. His
entreaties did no good. In desperation
he went back and got a Winchester
rifle and two revolvers and held up the
committee and went through.
At Duea and the Chilkoot pass the
conditions are much the same as on the
Skaguay trail.

THE BIG GUNS WIN.
Sink Schooner Agnes |. Grace
Of Bangor, Off Tybee.
Four 16-lnch Guns Go Adrift on Deck
in Heavy Weather.
Vessel capsizes and Sinks Under Their assaults
The Crew Saved.

Savannah, Ga, Sept. 5.-The three
masted schooner Agnes 1. Grace, of
Bangor, Me-, capsized and sank, this
morning, 20 miles east Of Tybee. Her
crew came ashore in their boat and
landing at Warsaw Island, this after
noon.
The schooner sailed from New York,
Aug. 2S, with a cargo of salt for Savan-
nah, and four 16-ton guns for the Ty-
bee fortification. She reached Tybee,
Saturday night. in a severe north
easter and strong effort was made to
hold her up to the wind and prevent
her being driven further south.
All night she tossed in the heavy sea,
but as the storm was going down and
when the fight with the elements was
almost won. the heavy guns shifted
and began to roll about. All efforts to
secure them We're fruitless and the
crew were driven to the rigging as the
iron monsters plunged back and forth
across the deck.
About O'Clock this morning, a heavy
lurch of the fated vessel threw the i'm
mense weight Of the guns into the Soup
pers and the vessel staggered, tried to
right and then slowly heeled over with
the angry seas rushing over her bull
warks.
Captain Farrar and his crew consist
ing of seven men succeeded in manning
the vessels boats after much difficulty
and rowed away from her just as she
went down. They arrived at Warsaw
Island 20 miles south of Tybee inlet
at 4 o'clock Z. NJ.
The proprietor of the Warsaw Inr
took the shipwrecked sailors in and did
everything necessary to make then
comfortable. They will come to tn
city either in their boat or on the slooI
Hartford. which is at Warsaw on hen
way to Savannah.
The schooner Agnes l. Grace was
built at Waldoboro, Me, in 1873, ana
hailed from Bangor.
She was 126 feet in length, of 81 Tee,
in breadth and IL feet deep. Her gross
tonnage was 1869 and tonnage 357. Sc.

This places the date of the murder of
captain Whitman and Mate Saunders
much earlier than was supposed. from
the fact that the news of the tragedy
not reaching here for 10 days later The
condition of this schooner when passed
by the Rose leads to the belief that
the murder and the remainder of the
crew had not been very many hours
away from the vessel when the Kosse
put in appearance.
The position as given by Captain
Bfalthwaite is about half way between
Rlo Janeiro and Bahia, where the m IN
made a landing. When the Rose left
the vessel the flames We're licking her
mastheads, and she was fast being con-
sumed. The entire hull was a mass of
flames, and the cabin where probably
the remains of Capt. Whitman and
Mate Saunders were lying had been
entirely consumed.

SUGAR AND MOLlsses TARIFF.
Department Formulates New Regulations 10
Be Announced. Today.

Washington, Sept. 5.-The treasury de-
partment has prepared the regulations
governing the sampling and classification
of imported sugars and molasses under
the new tariff law. and they will be for
mallv promulgated. tomorrow One of
tlc principal and most important of the
changes made in the old regulations
made in 1883. is a provision recurring that
the "re-sample' of sugar shall be taken
at the time the original sample is taken
This provision has been deemed expedient
TO prevent any suspicion of irregularity.
Many new provisions are also included
in the regulations with the object of Sc
curing uniformity AT the different labora-
tories where sugars are tested. AS soon
as the cnange can be made only the half
shadow polariscope will be employed in
making tests instead of the color instru-
ments now in use. and all instruments
and apparatus will be standardized by
the officials of the coast and geodetic
survey in order to secure uniform results.
The tests of the classification of sugars
have been changed so that the average
tests agreeing within 2-10 of | per cent.
shall govern the classifications Under
the act of 1888 the determining test was
the. lowest of two tests agreeing within
$40 of a degree. This change was made
because the present law provides for a
sliding scale of duties on fractions Of a
degree. and because it was believed that
this method, which follows the CONNER
cial practice. would be fair to all con-
cernod.
Warrant for this change was obtained
from an opinion rendered by the solicitor
of the treasury. All that portion of the
regulations applying TO polarization by
chemists is now eliminated, and it is be-
lieyed by the department that ii will give
the government the benefit of scientific
methods which have greatly improved
since the act of 1883
The regulations We're prepared by a
committee of experts which included the
chemists of the agricultural department
and officers of the internal revenue bu-
reau and the experts of the coast ana
geodetic survey.
