bulk of the miners supplies is at pres
ent taken, consumes about thirty days
under the most favorable conditions.
Frequently steamers are obliged to wait
some time at St. Michael's for favor
able weather, and in Spring they are
Obliged towait until the ice is out of the
river. These delays when miners
wages are from $40 to 500 day are OF
great importance to a miner looking
for work as well as to the prospectors.
The railroad and its connecting
steamers at Teslin Lake, Mr.. Packard
said, will obviate these delays, as the
steamers will have their Winter quar-
ter at Teslin Lake, and when the ice
breaks in the Spring will be able TO fol-
low It with safety, landing freight at
the various Yukon points and return
ing to Teslin Lake long before the ice
reaches the mouth CT the river 1000
miles from Teslin Lake. The railroad,
therefore. Mr. Packard said, will save a
delay Of twenty to thirty days, and will
enable the miner to ge, his outfit ready
and start back to the mines from mis-
Winter quarters along the river that
much earlier in the Spring. An addi-
tional benefit which the miner will de-

cused Samuel Adams, clerk OF the Mu-
nicipal Court. of refusing to give him a

cusaticns were true. He replied that

erty. Howell S. England, who repre-
sented Dougherty, called several wit
nesse9 to the stand to testify as to his
character. and asked for a dismissal
Assistant City Solicitor CahOon, in clos

PASSENGER CARS SMASHED
COLLISION IN THE FOURTH STREET
YARD.


A FREIGHT CAR TOPPLES INTO
THE EDGE MOOR ACCOMMoDA-
TTON AND TWO PASSENGERS
SLIGHTLY CUT BY FLYING
GLASS.
What might have been aserious mis-
hap resulted in a slight smash-up yes
terday afternoon at Fourth street cross
ing OF the p. w. & b. railroad. The
Edge Moor wOrkmen's train was crash
ed into by a freight car, and two
coaches of the passenger train had
their sides torn out and a girl and a boy,
who were passengers, received cuts from
flying glass.
The accident was the result of a
freight car on an adjoining track top
pling into the passenger train. To the
east of the north-bound main track
there are two sidings. The most east
erly of these sidings switches from the
other. and on the latter was left a hat
car, which did not clear the west sid
ing. A shifting engine was at work on
the westerly siding and showed a train
Of several freight cars down the siding
toward Fourth street. The forward box
car struck tn fiat car which had not
cleared, and was toppled to a leaning
position toward the north-bound main
track as the engine and first car of
the Edge Moor train had passed and
crashed into the other two passenger
cars. Conductor Edward Lane, who was
in charge of the Edge Moor train, had
it brought to a standstill. In addition
to the damage done to the passenger
cars the end Of the box car was STAYED
in.
At the time of the crash there were
five passengers in the Edge Moor train
But two of these. a small girl named
Rogers, and a lad named z. M. Clark
received cuts by flying glass The
others escaped without a scratch. DR.
H. NJ. First attended Clark.
The two passenger cars were taken tC
the p. w. & B. car shops for repairs
and two other cars we're placed in theil
place on the Edge Moor train.

The resignation of Col. r. T.. Fast
as Colonel Of the First Regiment
West Virginia National Guards was
accepted by the Commander in Chief
ON the oath as stated by the Charles
ton papers, and the Colonel is now
out of the service. The resignation
of no officer of the Guard has caused
more sincere regret among his com
mand, and especially among his OFF,
GERS than has. that of Colonel Fast
and they all wished, even after his
resignation had been forwarded, that
he would reconsider it and remain
with the Guard. But ill health and
the press of more important business,
in his opinion, would not permit him
to retain his connection longer with
the Regiment. He took charge of the
Regiment when from the condition
of the Guard generally, it was dis
organized, the officers from lack OF
experience were ignorant of their
duties, and by dint of perseverance
he has brought it out Of chaos and
placed it in fine condition. OF course
under the then existing law, it was
impossible to maintain discipline
but Colonel Fast succeeded in that
respect better than most any other
officer could have done. He will be
missed from the service, and the of
fieers who have served Immediately
under him regard his retirement as
a personal loss.-Indes.

EDITOR HART A MINISTER.
The President, 1t is Said. Wants Him
Out Of the Way of Judge Golf.

WASHINGTON, April 3.-West
Virginia Republicans here are again
excited over a report that their
state is to be given another choice
federal plum, the ministry to the
United States of Columbia, for which
it is said the president has selected
Editor C. B. Hart, of the Wheeling
"Intelligencer." Mr.. Hart was here
to-day and went home tonight feel
ing assured that his nomination
would be sent to the senate in few
days. The place pays $4,000 a
year.
While the West Virginians are
excited over the prospect of this APP
pointment, their excitement is not
altogether pleasurable. The small
seekers from the state fear
that If Mr. Hart gets the Columbian
mission and N. B. Scott the COM
missionership Of internal revenue
they will not have much of show
for the minor appointments they
seek. If Mr.. Hart is given the diplo-
matte post he is said to be slated for
it will be because the president
wishes to get him out of the way OF
his old friend, Judge Gof,. in the
contest for the senatorship two
years hence.
