lish unshop.
The Collector wrote to the postmaster
at Monterey and received a corr boration
OF Chan's story, and alYthe papers in the
case were sent 10 Washington to the

ceived by the Collector yesterday, to the
effect that the matter had been referred 10

Official had decided that Chan was not n
titled to be landed. The Treasury De-
partment has approved OF the decision oil

FORTUNE STILL EXISTS.
Mrs. Elliott Denies That Her
Daughters Wealth Is
Fading Away.
She Is Incensed Over a Story Pub
lished in an Afternoon
Paper.

Mrs. William r. Elliott is in censed over
a story published in an afternoon paper
which sta les that the prospective fortune
of Miss Elliott, her adopted daughter,
amounting to S25 ,000. has ''gone
a-glmmering" from the fact that V ce-
President Hobart and Governor Griggs Of
New Jersey had written her that they
were not aware ot the fortune OF lmblay
Clarke, and also denied having known
him during his lifetime.
Mrs. Elliott stated last evening that she
had written to Mr. Hobart merely 10 as
certain whether or not the case would be
settled in New jersey or in Australia, and
that letters had been received in rep.y
which stated that they were not aware OF
the case and could not give the desired
information. They did not deny" she
said, "that Mr.. Clarke had left.a large for
tune, nor did they deny that Miss Elliott
was the heiress to tue vast property.
The first steamer which Will leave for
Australia since we have been notified OF
our good fortune is the Alameda, which
leaves to-day. When a steamer returns
from Australia we will be able to prove
at the statements we have made are ab-
soiuteIy true. Papers have been drawn
up by our attorneys and they will leave
on the steamer to-day. How the alter
noon aper was so positive that the for
tune was fading away Is more than L can
tell, as 1T has been impossible to receive
any word as yet
Il have living witnesses who knew Mr..
Clarke in Mel bourne, and they are aware
that he lett fortune as large as has be en-
reported. If the fortune was not in eXls-
tence we would have no hesitation in say

tions, he will be two months at time at

who indorsed him or the position were
John ID. Spreckels, Harbor Com missioners
ColnOn, Chadbourne and Harvey, Captain
James f. Chapman, Williams. DImond &
Co., John Rosenfeld, Pacific Mail Steam
ship Company, Meyer, Wilson & Co., and

The little sloop Anna Catherine sailed
for ST. Michael in command OF Captain
Winchel yesterday. She is only fifteen
tons burden and was loaded down with
provisions. Judging by the clothing taken
away by those who went out on the boat
the frozen north is not their destination.
All kinds OF rumors are afloat. Some peo-
pie say she is bound for Mexico in search
Of a mys erious gold mlne; others that
she will meet larger vessel outside and
transfer her cargo and passengers; WI lie
others again say that while making her
way to the westward in order to reach ST.
Michael she will be driven Of: her course
and will finally bring up at Honolulu.
One thing is certain-the Anna Catherine
will not reach st. Michael for many
months to come.
Yukon trade are in demand. Captain
Charles Goodall, accompanied by Chief
Engineer Lacy of the steamer UmatiIla,
are 10th in the East looking over steamers
for the Pacific Coast Stea ship Company.
Before he returns it is expected that Cap
tain Goodall will purchase at least two
steamers for the Alaska trade. Yesterday
the Alaska Commercial Company pur-
chased the steamer Portland from John
Rosenfeld. She Will run to ST. NJ chaeI in
injunction with the company's new
steamer now being com pleted at the
Union Iron Works. The sealing schooners
Herman and Epp:nger will not go to
Bering Sea n, xt spring, but are to be fitted
out TO carry miners 10 the Klondike while
the stanch old whaler Alaska is to be
fitted out tor the sa me purpose.
Captain Henry Nelson, owner and mas
ter of the ship Columb bia, has purchased
the ship Hecla, now at Puget Sound. he
will assume command of the latter vessel
and will bring load of coal in her from
Departure Bay. Captain Ed Nelson, first
mate OF the Columbia and brother of the
owner, will be promoted to the vacant

OF territorial loss along the line which for

cause of whatever trouble has existed.
The original survey was made some
years ago, aud no trouble was experienced
until the surveyors reached Lake Ia
hoe, where the boundary line made an an
