Glenwood Springs, Col, Sept. 4.-The

yesterday and nominated a candidate for

the party, which held its convention In
Denver today, the meeting was har-
monious throughout, and Justice Chas.
ID. Hayt was renominated without oppo-
sition. This was largely due, it is be-
lieved, to the presence of Senator Henry
NJ Teller, whose voice was law to most
of the delegates present. The platform
adopted was a strong reaf1rmation of the
principles of the silver repbican party.
Senator Teller and Congressman Shat

taking the position that silver could not

ON SKAGUAY TRAIL

Three Thousand Men Are Stalled

Skaguay, Alaska, Aug. 80, per Steamer

Skaguay, Alaska, Aug. 80, per Steamer
The miners on Skaguay trail put in two
days work on the trail blasting out the
rocks and corduroying wet places and
last night decided to throw the trail
open. Work already done has made
wonderful Improvement, fully 100 per
cent of the first Is miles, but little work
was done on the third hill, the worst
one on the whole trail and last night at
meeting it was proposed to levy toll
of IS per head on each man going over
for the purpose of hiring men to open
a cutoff where considerable blasting
has to be done, but which would save
three and half miles and dodge the
worst part on the entire trail. The
meeting broke up in a row, however,
and nothing was accomplished. The
former proposition to throw the trail
open this morning carried by default
and long before daylight the trail was
crowded from the beach to the foot of
the first hill with swearing miners anX-
ious to be the first to get over the hill.
1t is predicted that by tomorrow night
there will be 5000 men and horses at
the foot of the first hill unable to get
over and after they have had a day to
consider they will go to work on the
cutoff and put it through. Mr.. Scovel
has stored the remainder of the blast
ing powder and tools in a tent at the
foot of the hill, where they can get it as
soon as they are ready to use it.
The first robbery of any account oc-
CURED yesterday morning at the foot
Of the first hill. w. H. Davidson of
Seattle lost 81 400 in gold taken from
his tent while he was temporarily alb

he has had to send home for more
money.
The Route Is ImpassabIe.
Seattle, Wash, Sept. ALL efforts to
break the blockade at Skaguay have
failed utterly. Advices received by the
steamer Rosalie, which left Skaguay
Monday last, arriving here today, state
that when the trail was opened Monday
morning, 1000 men and horses We're
striving to get over. Soon the path
was in as bad condition as before it was
repaired. Where the road had been
corduroyed over the miry places, logs
slipped out and horses went founder
ing into the mire, many of them never
to emerge. These statements We're
made today by Harry Fredericks, we'll
known in this city, who spent some
weeks at Skaguay, returning today. He
says that hundreds of those at Skagu-
ay have given up all hope of getting
through this winter and will stay till
February at the foot of the pass. Hun
dreds are coming back from the trails
stopping at Skaguay or Juneau for the
winter. A few of the more adventur-
Gus will try to go over when the first
freeze covers the bogs with ice.

The new system is a perfection of

result of it's adoption will be a reduction
of premiums and a general readjust-

that premiums may be lessened by rem
edying matters of hazard and certain
