BY WAY OF EDMONTON.

Canada Will Seek an Easier Route to tLH
Klondyke.
OTTAWA, Ont, Aug. 2S.-The Domin.
ion government has determined to test
the feasibility of reaching Klondyke by
way of Edmonton and the Peace river,
and a practical trial of the proposed
route will be conducted by the interior
department. 1t is claimed for this
route that it offers the advantage of
continuous stretch of country available
for horses, and could therefore be
utilized by pack trains right through to
the gold fields.
To ascertain the character of this
route it has been decided by the minis
ter of the interior to dispatch small
exploration party of Northwest mounted
police as soon as possible. They will
move north by way of the Peace river
to the Laird, and thence by way of the
Dease to the Pelly, which joins the
Yukon at Fort Selkirk, ITO miles above
Dawson City and but 100 miles above
Stewart river, where, according to pres
ent indications, the bulk of prospecting
will be done next year.
1t is generally believed here that the
richness Of the Klondyke will pale into
tnsignificance when the wonders of the
Stewart are unfolded next season. 1t is
understood to be the policy of the de-
partment to refrain from giving out any
information which would tend to in
crease the gold excitement at the pres.
ent time, SO that every opportunity
might be had to perfect their aiarange.
ments for Yukon administration and
enable them to cope with the situation
when the inevitable rush for the new
placer diggings takes place.

FRANCO-RUSSIAN ENTENTE.

ST. PETERSBURG, Aug. 28-It has
been semi.officially announced that con-

sian ministers of foreign affairs were
held first in the presence of the czar
and afterwards in the presence of Presi.

suits are most satisfactory for the inter.

peace of the world.
ST. PETERSBURG, Aug. 70. AT a
luncheon given in honor Of the czar on
board the French cruiser Pothuau, the

all their power to the maintenance of
peace in the world in the spirit of right
and equity"

SMITH ON THE PORTLAND.

An Alleged Iowa Murderer Captured at
klondyke After Long Chase.
PORT TOWNSEND, Wash, Aug. 49,
The steamer Portland, due from St..
Michaels, has on board murderer who
was chased by detectives half way
around the world. He is in irons and
under constant watch of two Pinkerton
detectives. The prisoner, William
Smith, was pursued over the continent
to Juneau, to Dyea and across the Chill
koot pass, over the lakes and down the
rivers to the gold fields of Klondyke,
where he was taken into custody.
Smith was storekeeper in a small
town near Cedar Rapids, Ia, up to sew
eral months ago. One night the store
was burned and in the ruins was found
the charred body of a.man. Smith s
relatives claimed that he was burned to
death in the fire. His life was insured
for $50, 900 and demand was made for
the money. An investigation led to the
belief that the body was not that of
Smith, but of watchman. The theory
was at once advanced that Smith had
committed murder and burned his store
in the hope that the body would be
roasted beyond recognition and his rela.
tives obtain the insurance money after
he had disappeared. Pinkerton men
were put on the trail, and after one of
the longest chases on record arrested
Smith at Dawson City on July IL. He
was taken to St. Michaels to await the
sailing of the Portland.
