An Uprising of Japanese May Take

An Uprising Of Japanese May Ts Ae
 Place.
 SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 26.-Ths steamer Msriposa arrived this morning from Sidney, via Honolulu. with the follow ing Hawaiian Rdvices:
 "Tne Government of Hawaii has not yst received an answer from Japan regarding the offsr to refer the immi- grafton trouble to arbitration. There is no change in the situation here. The Hawaiian Star, commenting upon the admission ot the Japanese that iu case of trouble all Japanese in Homo lulu are to meet st g rendezvous, says, If we look up on Japanese correspond ence and articles in she Japanese press it is found frequent allusion is made to sn uprising in the islands. Is is one of the excuses for the presence of the Nsniws in our waters. Should sucb a rising take plsos 1t would be very easy for the Japanese government to repudt- ate it if unsuccessful and ib would be very easy to reap the sdvsu tsges were it successful This idea of probable rising Is ever present in Japanese minds in the empire and there is good reason to believe that is is present ths Japanese minds here.'"

 JUNEAU, Alaska, Aug. 16.
 Mr. and Mrs. Reed, Phoenir, Aris:
 reached Juneau Friday right side up with care. Was glad to get of the Willamette. One of our party (ME MahsD) went ss far ss Dyea. He re- turned this morning. He went up to see if it was possible to get over the pass, and he says that we can get across but will have to pack our outfits on our backs. Tnere are 8 number of Indians packing there, but it cost sll the wsy from 30 to 40 cents per pound to get it over and hard to get help at that. We will carry about 600 pounds of provi- sions each, and good supply of clothing; would like to carry more, but are afraid we won't bs able to get in if we load our selves too heavy.
 There are about two thousand people in Sksgusy, many of whom will not be able to get over un til spring. I hsd an offsr of Sl0 per day to go up to Dyea and pack. People are making from t10 to S15 day at Sksguay and Dysa, so we are going to take our outfit up, and if we csn's get across before the lakes freeze over we will go bo work packing for other people and cross in the spring. Mr Mshan came down from Dyes with four Klondykers just from Dawson; lsfs Dawson 4sh of July, walked through to Dyea. They had S2O,OOO in dust. I was lucky enough to see one of the bsge; contained S2,OO0. They came ous = for provisions; said they were short of provisions in Dawson.
 Juneau is quite little town. Can look almost straight up and see the - 'now- capped mountains, and down in she channel can see big icebergs float ng around. The weather is pleasant, lot to cold or two warm.
 The steamer Mexico went down on lsF return trip. I guess we passed oves Ter and did rot know it. LON.
