New York, Aug 3.-Joseph Ladu, the
owner of Dawson City, on the Yukon,
writes to the New York World from
Schuyler Falls, n. y:
II read in the World an article writ
ten by Joaquin Miller saying that there
would be no starvation in the Yukon
valley this season and that the steamer
Alice and Bell would make five trips
up the Yukon, taking $50 tons each
trip. Mr.. Miller does not know what he
is talking about. 1t is a positive fact
that the steamer Alice and Bell will not
make more than three trips up the Ku-
kon and will not take more than 400
tons ON each trip and out of that $50
tons the food will not average over $50
tons
Il am positive that the people will
starye like rats if this is allowed to 60

statement and warn all against going
this season.
"Any and all statements made in re-
gard to the amount of supplies which
will 90 into the Yukon this season |
can vouch for nearly as clearly as though
| was there. 1t is true that the Ameri-
can Transportation Company has two

der date of July 81:
The arrival of the steamer Moano
from San Francisco, due here the 29th,
means much for Hawaii In close OIL
cial circles it is generally understood
that United States Minister Sewall will
carry out instructions received i'll the
last mail. which are said to be to the
effect that if the Moano brings word
that congress failed to pass the annex
alton treaty, then Minister Sewall is to
declare a protectorate and raise the
American flag. Minister Sewall hai
frequent consultations with President
Dole within the past week and it is be-
lieved they agreed upon program, 1T
is said that in view of the attitude OF
Japan, Secretary Sherman is of the
opinion that United States protection is
the only way to prevent hostile action
during the intervening months before CON
gress reconvenes. 1t is expected that, al
lowing for the requirements of diplo-
matte etiquette, everything will be i'll
readiness for the declaration of the pro

present congress will never take favor
able action on the treaty now before it.
He does not look for any rupture that
may disturb the friendly relations now
existing between the United States and
Japan, but he does believe the govern
ment has a just claim against the Ha-
waiian government in connection with
the immigration trouble, although she IS
not likely to enforce her claim in case
the Hawaiian government refuses to rec
ognize them. There is no possible likcIl-
hood of trouble between Japan and the

The First Ingram Carpet Made
in Frederick County.

in 1871, began the weaving of Axmins-
ter carpets. The same year, Alexander
Hamilton, to encourage The new indus
try, recommended to the House of
Representatives that q per cent, duty
be laid on the carpets. The first iu-
grain carpet mill ia tins country was
established IN Frederick County, Mary
land, bv George NJ. Conradt, about
1910. Alexander Wright, unable To get
the secret of the Jacquard machine
then used in Philadelphia, went to
Scotland and brought back with him
several looms and two skilled opera
tives. In 1898, Wright, as superlnten.
dent ofthe Lowell Manufacturing Com
pany, began making carpets on a
larger scale than had ever before been
tried in America. The industry spread
to Connecticut and to New York, and
by 1915 the latter State had u dozen
factories Erastus Bigelow, by invent
ing perfecting power-loom, reduced
the cost of weaving ingrains from
twenty-five cents to three cents yard.
Other inventors aided the development,
and 10y 1890 the annual product of car
pets in the United States was $47, no.
1913. In 1895, tJere were l25 manufac-
turers, using $500 power-oons, in the
carpet industry. The product was
worth $50, 100000 AT first, the designs
in American carpets were mostly cop
les of the foreign article, but, in the
past few years, designs originating in
America have caught the admiration
