THE FOREST RESERVES.
Selected by the National Academy Of
Science.

Washington, April TN compli-
ance with resolution of inquiry, the
secretary of the interior sent to the SEN
ate copies of the correspondence on file
in his Office bearing upon the executive
order of February %. establishing a
number of forest reservations in West
ern states.
The most important document of the
series is letter from Secretary Francis
to President Cleveland, dated February
6, recommending these reservations.
From this letter it appears the reserva-
tions were selected and the boundaries
established upon the recommendation
of the National Academy of Science,
which had investigated the question
through committee composed largely
of college professors, at the instance of
Secretary Smith. Secretary Francis
letter shows that he warmly approved
the selections made, covering 81 1878, $40
acres, and he suggested the issuance of
the proclamation on Washington's
birthday. He said the area Of the
reservations proposed would exceed that
of all of those already established by
about A, 600, 90 acres, but that "as our
public forests are being rapidly de-
creased, and the loss resulting there
from is incalculable, he did not think
this apparently large area should mill
tate in any degree against the recon-
mendation of the committee.
There is also letter from Secretary
Francis to Senator Allison, recommend
ing legislation permitting mining and
prospecting on all forest reservations.

Expressed Desire to Be Shown the

Expressed Desire to Be Shown the
Interior Of the White House.
Washington, April 8.-W. J. Bryan,
late Democratic candidate for presi-
dent, called at the White House today
with Representative McMillin, of Ten
nessee, and Attorney General Smythe,
of Nebraska, to pay his respects to his
late opponent. He was greeted warmly
by Mckinley. The latter said he had
received copy of Bryan's book few
days ago, but had not yet had time to
read it. After exchanging courtesies
and pleasantries, Bryan retired.
Bryan expressed desire to be shown
through the White House, and Door
keeper Dubois conducted him through
the various parlors and Conservatives.
In the main corridor, just as he was
emerging, he met Mrs. Mckinley, who
was going out for a drive, and saluted
her cordially.
Bryan was beseiged with newspaper
men, who asked for his views on the
Ohio and Michigan elections yesterday.
"They indicate that confidence has
been restored" he said laughing, "and
need no explanation from me; they
speak for themselves. :"

ALASKA FoRTUNE-sEEKERs.
Tho Usual Crowd ON Board Of the
Steamer Al-Ki.

Port Townsend, April 7.-When the
steamer Al-Ki left here for Alaska this
afternoon she carried 247 white passen-
gers and 46 Chinese, and every availa-
bic space on board, including the dining
tables, had been appropriated as sleep
ing quarters for the horde Of fortune
seekers. The greater part Of the crowd
is bound for recently discovered dig
gings at Klondyke, some distance be-
yond Circle City. which are said to be
the richest ever brought to light in that
far-off land.
Together with the large crowd of
passengers, there are twelve horses to
be used for packing, to say nothing of
the usual quota of dogs of all sizes and
breeds, to be utilized with sledges.
Freight accommodation was likewise
taxed to the utmost, the cargo of gen.
eral merchandise for Alaska merchants,
and supplies belonging to the miners,
being augmented here by stamp mill
outfit and two small steamers shipped
in sections to the Mackenzie river.
The latter will be unloaded at Dyea and
from there packed on sledges over the
SUBMITS and glaciers to their destina-
ton, where they will be put together.
The stamp mill outfit is consigned to
the Sum Dunn Mining & Milling Com
pany, at the town of Sum Dunn, in the
southeastern extremity of Alaska, 800
miles this side of Juneau.

California Clubs Soon to Withdraw.
San Francisco, April 7.-There is
dissension in the ranks of the Pacific
Amateur Athletic Association. The
association of late has taken firm
stand in upholding what it calls anna
teur spirit in all branches of sport.
A few week ago the various clubs
represented enacted a rule which
placed the ban upon all boxing exhibit
tions, no matter what their character
might be. Then came the enforcement
of the registry act, which makes it nee
essary for all athletes to register, nom
compliance with which will bring upon
the refractory athlete the penalty of ex-
pulsion. The meager $50 prize, the
limit of guerdon to the victorious ath-
lete, is another sore point in the laws
Of the association, and productive of
much opposition among boxers and
wrestlers.
The Pacific Association is a branch
of the Amateur Athletic Union, and
in prosecution of these laws it follows
the rules of the head organization.
Much dissatisfaction has been exhibited
on the part of local athletes against
these laws, and as result the Olym-
pic, Reliance and two university clubs
will probably withdraw in the near fu-
turo.
