A SHIP ON FIRE
She Reaches Port to See Her Cargo
Burned

SAN FRANCISCO. July 24-The car
go in the hold of the British ship Falls
of Dee, lying at the foot of Sansome
street, was almost totally destroyed last
night by fire. 1t was found necessary to
flood the hold. and such of the freight as
was not destroyed by the flames was
greatly damaged by water.
The Falls of Dee is full-rigged four
masted iron ship, and arrived in this
port from Hongkong four days ago. She
carried large cargo of miscellaneous
character and of considerable value. One
of the crew sitting in the fore castle no.
ticed the atmosphere growing uncom-
fortably warm. All of a sudden volumes
of smoke began to pour out of ventl-
ator leading from the hold, and the
frightened. sailor rushed on deck and
gave the alarm of fire. Streams of wa
ter were poured in the hold for hours
before the fire was brought under con-
troll. The fire was not entirely extin-
guished until this morning. The ship,
which is built of iron, is damaged but lit
tie, but it is estimated that the loss on
the cargo will amount to almost $1,000

the construction of the new telegraph

the construction of the new telegraph
wire.
Our method Is very simple" he said.
1.-The line IL to be constructed On the same
plans as the ordinary military line used
by armies for war purposes. We have a
wire quarter of an inch thick and COW
cred with a kerite insula ton, which has
proved thoroughly able to stand the rig
orous climatic conditions prevailing in
Alaska The wire is wound upon large
reels, the same as an ordinary telegraph
wire, and these reels are to be placed or
dog sleds and dragged over the ice and
snow. AS we go along, the reels will SIM
ply play out the loose wire and run it
along the ground, and thus our line will
be through in something like six weeks
the time consumed in the ordinary tramp
over the country"
Mr.. Bohannon expects to leave for Ju-
neau in the very near future, and will
commence operations Immediately on
his arrival there.
EXPRESS COMPANY'S PLAN.
SAN FRANCISCO, July 24.-There is
every proba bility that Wells, Fargo &
Co. will establish. an office in Dawson
City during the coming spring. L. F.

pany, said today that nothing could be
gained by establishing an office earlier
than that. The present rate of transpor-
tation of gold from Seattle to San Fran
cisco is So a thousand and IS from Seattle
to Philadelphia. If an office is estab-
lished in the Clondyke district the rate
per thousand, including insurance, will
be $3.50.
AN AGED PIONEER.
CHICAGO, July 24.-Among the many
persons preparing to seek for fortune in
the Alaska gold fields, James E. Booge
of Sioux City, Iowa, is most interesting

and wholesale grocer and is nearly 70
years old. He was formerly engaged in

dent CT the North American Transporta-
