STARVING KLoNDIKE ARMY.
Over 1000 Desperate Hungry Men stam'

Over 1000 Desperate Hungry Men stam'
pede From Dawson City.
By the steamer Topeka from Dyea, IN
Alaska, news Is received that more than
thousand ill-provisioned men stampeded
Dawson during the latter part Of October
and. impelled by fears of famine, are now
forcing their way over the mountains.
AUX, an Indian mail-carrier, who brings
this report, left the Yukon capital fully ten
days after the party. s.
stricken army Is following less than aweek
behind him. ....
AUX declares that fully twenty-five per
cent. Of the stampeders will never live to
recite the horrors OF their flight.
The river steamers Bella and Weare, It
now appears did not land more than 100
tons Of provisions on their arrival in Daw-
son In the early part Of October, owing to
their having been held up at Circle City.
The only bright view Of the situation is
that the crossing Of the pass above Dyea
proved, and within month will be In ex-
cellent condition.
Dyea parties, headed by George F. u
mer, propose to go to the relief Of the
hungry at Dawson.
They viii make the. United States Gov
ernment an offer to deliver so 900 pounds
of provisions within fifty days after the
time Of starting for Dawson for the sum OF
$4,000. -
They already have 5000 pounds Of pro-
visions cached at Lake Bennett which they
will take In over the Chilkoot Pass this
winter. .....
Ulmer will go South by the next steamer
to lay his proposition before the Secretary
of War by wire. .....
It Is stated that material for the proposed
railway over Takau Pass has been shipped
from the East.
In answer to Senate resolution calling
for such information as the War Depart
ment possesses relative to the lack OF food
supplies on the Yukon river, Secretary
Alger submitted letter reclting his action
in sending Cspttin Ray, Eighth Infantry. to
that country to investigate, and inclosing
copies of that officers reports, the features
of whichfhave been published. He sug-
gests that 500 reindeer be secured as the
best means for forwarding the provisions
which may be procured, ..

TWO HUNDRED MURDERS IN A YEAR
Bishop Capers Sets . Day For Preachin
on the Sacredness Of Life.


The report Of the State Solicitors, OF
South Carolina, for the last year, showing
that there have been two hundred murders
reported in that time, which Is double the
number Of the previous year. has brought
prompt action from Bishop Ellison Capers,
OF the Protestant Episcopal Church. He
issued an address to "clergy OF the Diocese
OF South Carolina and to our brethren, all
other ministers of the Gospel throughout
the State" In which he says: "The sin OF
murder is upon US. Homicldes are OF fre-
quent distressing occurrence, and In our
Judgment the public conscience needs to be
aroused to sense of the danger threaten
ing the character OF the people"
The Bishop, who was Confederate
brlgadier, speaks Of the manslaughter
which Is done by Divine authority, begin
ming with that on the battlefield, and adds:
"But the murders that have Of late out
ragged the law Of God and dishonored the
courage and character Of our people can
lay no claim to such authority. We call
upon our clergy to rebuke the murderer
and to proclaim the law OF God" Then he
appointed Sunday, December 10, as the day
to preach against murder, and ministers OF
all denominations are asked to unite in up
holding the sacredness Of life and the honor
of the State.

Cuba, Is guarded by four soldiers Of the
military police Of Havana and two detec-
tives. There Is much apprehension In
Government circles that an attack
may be directed upon the Consulate
by the uncompromising Spaniards. who are
very angry over the message OF President
Mckinley. La Luchs comments upon the
message as an insult to Spain. La Union
Constitutional and Ell Concrete are daily
exciting the anger Of the Spaniards over
the message. .'. -.

passion, and continues to receive every
caller with his usual politeness, and per-
forms his duties with great regularity, az
