THE PROPOSED RAILROAD.
Will Run From Underwater to River
NaviGation.

Seattle. Wash. Sept. L-W. a.
Pratt, the engineer who was sent to the
Northwest territory by the Yukon Min
ing, Trading & Transportation COM
pany of Wilmington, Del. to make
reconnaissance for q railroad into the
Yukon country, returned today from
Juneau on the steamer City Of Topeka.
He left this afternoon for the east. Ac-
companying him was his assistant. 7.
c. Janney of Boston. The results OF
Prattis investigations were so satisfac-
tory from an engineering standpoint
that If is probable several engineering
parties viii be put in the field within a
few weeks making preliminary surveys
for the line.
The proposed railroad is 1872 miles in
length and the route runs from the
head Of the Ta1lu inlet to Lake Testin
in the interior Lake Testin is at the
head of the Hootalinqua river, one of
the principal tributaries of the Yukon,
and both are naVigable, SO that the line
VIII be from salt water navigation to
steamer navigation on the river
Speaking Of the proposed road, Mr..
Pratt said. 1T is a very favorable
route, indeed, for the line. It goes up
the IIaku river to the junction of the
Clocloneeu and N1llima rivers, thence
up the latter iYer 10 Silver Salmon
river. and finally overland to the head
of Testin lake. The heaviest grade is
9 per cent and the route is remarka bly,
direct for q mountainous country. The
company has secured concessions from
the Canadian government OF 5000 acres
CT land for each mile of road built"

GAGE HAS HIS DOUBTS.
CONCERNING THE BANK OF
ENGLAND's INTENTION.
If It Shall Garry one-Fifth of Its
Reserve In Silver It Would Not
Affect the Price.

Washington, Sept. 1.-THE announce
ment that the directors of the Bank
Of England had consented to hold one
fifth of the banks reserve in silver
was something OF q surprise to the
treasury officials. many of whom doubt
the accuracy of the report
Secretary Gage said that he did not
see that the decision, if true, would
appreciably affect the silver market. as
it was unlikely that the Bank of En-
gland would buy on a market Which
might rise in view of its decision, and
then fall after the necessary amount
of silver had been procured.
Another question with the secretary
was whether the silver reserve would
be carried in silver coin or in bullion.
For FIVE or six years there has been
talk that the Bank of England would
carry part Of its reserve in silver. and
on several occasions the positive. state
merit had been made that il had de-
cided to do so. 1t is allowed under
the law as IL is known, TO carry one
fourth in silver. As this is permissible.
Secretary Gage would be glad TO have
the bank avail itself of its legal pre-
rogative in this direction, bit doubts
If ii will do so.

In the second heat the word was
given with Patchen a neck ahead of
Pointer. who had the pole this heat.
Pointer led at the quarter turn by half
length. This lead was gradually in
creased to nearly a length at the half
but at the three-Quarters pole Patchen
was on even terms with the pacing

they finished. The result gave Pointer
