FOOD FOR KLONDIKERS
100000 POUNDS WANTED AT DYEA,
ALASKA, BY FEB. L.
Canadians at Washington to Confer
with Secretary AIger Regarding
the Relief Expeditions.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 27.-Captain d. l..
Brainard. who is in Chicago making ar
rangements to advertise for bids for Klon-
dixie supplies, has been ordered to adver-
tise Immediately for a prepared list of ra-
tons. consisting essentially of the army
rations. for one thousand people for one
hundred days, weight approximating go
eco pounds. These supplies are to be deliv-
cred at Dyea by Feb. l. Secretary Alger
this afternoon received the following tele-
gram from Captain Brainard: Il believe
the nutritive value claimed for condensed
foods somewhat exaggerated; besides, these
foods are difficult to pack, and tin packages
add greatly to the weight. l deem the most
satisfactory food for Alaska to be bacon,
beans. flour, peas, rice, sugar, coffee, tea
and chocolate the necessary condiments
and a small quantity of butter and con-
densed milk. These articles possess proper
nutrition, are easy to pack and, except but
ter and milk, have no extra weight for
packages"
Hon. Clifford Sifton. minister of the in
terror, and ]. A. McKenna, of the same
department, arrived here tonight by invi-
tation of Secretary Alger to confer with
the secretary relative to Klondike relief
measures. The secretary originally intend
ed TO go to Ottawa, but mas Deen suffering
from an attack of grip which confines him
closely to his home. Secretary Alger hopes
by a personal conference with the Cana
dian officials to arrange for the issue of a
permit from the Canadian government for
nifty armed troops to serve as guard for the
relief expeditions to pass through
Canadian territory. Another object of the
conference is to adjust some customs ques-
tons that are involved in. the sending of
the expeditions, such, for instance, as the
remission of duties on the food supplies
that are to be sent in. Another object is
to secure the cooperation of the Canadian
Mounted Police, which, it is not doubted,
viii be cheerfully extended and will be of
the greatest value, through the thorough
familiarity of these hardy men with the
country through which the expedition must
pass.
A cablegraln was received to-day by the
secretary from Mr.. Kjellmann, the govern
ment reindeer herder. who is now in Alton,
Norway stating that he is busy collecting
the reindeer needed for the transportation
of the supplies TO the Klondike.

MADRID, Dec. 27.-The insurgent chief
Rivera. has arrived at Cadiz from Cuba.
He will be ncarcerated in a fortress. In
the course of an interview he said he be-
lieved nothing would induce the Cubans to
cease fighting before they attained indie

Col. Ruiz, the Spanish peace emissary, as
a means of arriving at this end.
Gen. Ruis Rivera, who succeeded Gen. An
tonic Macso as commander of the insurgent
forces in Pinar del kio was wounded and
captured on March 2S of this year, in the
hills near Cabaezdas de Rio Hondo. Rivera

was reported that the Spaniards intended to
execute him, but strong repre- sensations were
made in his behalf by the United States,
and 1t was announced on Dec. 10 that he
had been released from the Cabannas for
tress and had sailed the same day for CadiZ.

Spain in 1863. He had formerly been civil
engineer at Barcelona, Spain. He was in
Cuba during the ten years war and refused
to sign the articles of peace at Zanjon. Later
he left the island and occupied positions of
trust at London, Madrid Manila and in
Honduras. Subsequently he removed to New
York, where his wife resided, and returned
to Cuba on the invitation of the late General
