SAN FRANCISCO, July 27.-The lat
est rumor from Alaska is of the dis
covery Of rich quartz in large quanti-
ties on the Stewart river. Particulars
are vague, and beyond the fact that
the ledge is a large one and that the
rock assays 800 nothing can be learn
ed. This If true will mean much
for the Klondyke district The Stewart
river runs into the Yukon not far above
Dawson, and it is reasonable to sup
pose that the placer gold now being
found below may have it's origin in the
mountains at the head of the Stewart
river and neighboring streams.
SAN FRANCISCO, July 27-Spear
street dock was the scene of more ex-
citement this morning when the steam
er State of California sailed for the
North than has occurred there for
many years. Fully 1000 people gath
cred to witness the departure of the
steamer, and the departing miners We're
given an enthusiastic farewell. The
wharf was piled high with freight, al
though the vessel was slowed to her
utmost capacity, even the hurricane
deck being utilized for the storage of
canned goods and other supplies. Near
ly $50 people embarked in the vessel,
243 of whom were cabin passengers.
WASHINGTON, July 27.-Legal COM
plications which have presented them
selves may intervene to prevent the
detail of a company of United States
troops to Alaska to assist in main
tanning the peace in the Klondyke re-
gion. These complications presented
themselves as soon as the subject was
first broached, and have been the
source of some annoyance to the Of
ficials, who feel that law-preserving
body of men is essential to the we'll
being of the people who are f1ocking
to the gold country. No doubt appears
to be entertained of the power Of the
diers, but the question raised is just
what authority they will have after be-
ing located there. Can they be ordered
out to quell disturbance without an or
der from the president? Can the judge
of a court or marshal be clothed with
authority to dispatch the soldiers to
the scene of trouble? Even If this
power rested with the governor Of
Alaska, he is located at Sitka, a great
distance from the gold region, and by
the time his authority could be OBJ
tained the harm would be done. The
question was discussed by the presi-
dent and Secretary Alger at the White
house tonight, but no decision was
reached Secretary Alger thinks the
matter will be settled before the pres
ident's departure from the city tomor-
row. The president and his cabinet
hope that a satisfactory conclusion
may be arrived at, so that a detach-
ment of soldiers can be sent to the
territory.

Fire PdIiG in Q Hot FQCtOTv.
Money Loss of Half a Million,
But No Casualties.

NEW YORK, July 27.-Fire at Yon-
kers this afternoon destroyed two
large factory buildings occupied by
w. A. Reed & Co., hat manufacturers:
Rowland Bros, hat manufacturers:
Pass Bros, silk manufa cturers, and the
Yonkers Silk company. The loss will
probably reach half million dollars,
and 500 people are thrown out of en-
ployment
There were no casualties. though the
buildings were crowded with employees
when the fire was discovered The fire
originated in the blowing room of the
hat factory of William Reed & Co.
Two large gas meters exploded immedi-
ately after the flames burst forth, and
the escaping gas helped to feed the
flames. Within few minutes the fire
was breaking through the windows of
the first and second stories. There were
600 men and girls in the building. IN
tense excitement prevailed while the
employees left the building by the fire
escapes, the girls being taken out first,
and all losing their street clothes, so
little time was given.
The wind carried the flames to the
building occupied by Rowland Eros
hat factory, and the interior OF this
structure was destroyed. Just across
the street from the building in which
the fire started are the big works Of
Alexander Smith & Sons, the largest
carpet manufacturers in the United
States. Two thousand persons were
at work in the carpet factory when
the fire broke out. The factory escap-
ed damage. The lowest estimate Of the
losses is 100000 and others run as high
as $3.50. 900. Reed & Co. place their loss
roughly at $50 1000; Rowland Bros, Pass
Bros. and the Yonkers Silk company
are set down for $4,000 each. The loss
on the two buildings totally destroyed
is estimated at $4,000. The insur-
ance will probably nearly cover the
loss.

mulate to wise recommendations worthy of
early and favorable consideration by congress
at the regular session next winter
That the bill, which passed the house with
promptness, failed of recognition in the
senate may be a matter of regret, but not one
for discouragement. What might have been
accomplished through a commission may be
achieved without one. Nor ought we to speak
or think unkindly of a body which has so
assiduously toiled in the work of new body
of law. concerning a matter so charged with
conflicting opinions and opposing interests
as is any tariff act.
The two questions before the country in the
last political campaign were the tariff and
the currency. One of them is already settled.
Whatever the merits demerits of the new
measure in its particular items, it has be-
come the law of the land. The revenues de-
rived from it will. after a possible brief in
terregnum, be ample for proper government
expenditures; and if the old aphorism be true
that "the revenue of the state is the state"
we may say without exaggeration that the
state is re-established.
The problems of democratic society rap
idly developing in many and all directions
are many and troublesome. They must be
met with patience. We must not lose faith
nor abate in courage. with malice toward

grievances. We denounce the issuance of
injunctions by the judges of West Virginia
Pennsylvania and other states as wholly un-
justified, unwarranted and unprecedented,
more especially in the absence of any exhibit
tion manifestation Of force on the part of
the outraged miners.
We recommend that indignation mass meet
ings be held throughout the entire country
to give expression to the condemnation of the
unwaranted injunction interfering with the
free rights OF free assemblage and free speech,
and We also extend sympathy and support to
the mine workers to the utmost extent.
We hereby call upon each national and in
ternational organization Of labor to send rep
resentattves to act for and by the direction
of the United Mine Workers as organizers
in West Virginia, Pennsylvania and such
other states as may be necessary. Fully
imbued with the heroic struggle which the
miners are making for pure womanhood and
innocent childhood, for .deeeney for man
hood and for civilization, we call upon the
workingmen of our country to lend all pos
sible assistance to our suffering, struggling
fellow workers of the mines, and to unite
in defense of our homes. our rights, our cit
izenship and our country.

KLONDYKE GOLD CURE
Large Party From Chicago Will Go
North to Try 1t,

North TO Try 1t.
CHICAGO, July PA party of men
who wish to try the Klondyke gold
cure will leave Chicago on a special
train next Saturday night en- route for
the newly discovered Alaskan gold
helds. There will be $50 individuals
in the party. The special train on
which the party will travel will run
directly through to San Francisco.
There the gold hunters will remain
three days to purchase mining supplies
The party will then ship for ST. Michael
On a special steamer. This trip will
occupy fourteen days. Three steam
Launches will be in waiting to trans
port them up the Yukon to the mouth
OF the Klondyke river. This trip will
require fourteen days. Each tourist
may take 500 pounds of baggage from
san Francisco, but only a portion of
this will be taken up the river with
the party.
When the Klondyke is reached the
steam launches will be moored in win
ter quarters. The tourists will live
aboard them until spring begins to
break, some time next summer. The
transportation company claim to have
made plans for carrying enough provi-
sions to supply all it's travellers with
plenty of food until late next summer.
1t is the intention of the promoters
Of the excursion to make the shortest
journey on record to the gold fields
An effort will be made to complete the
trip from Chicago to the Klondyke
within thirty days. In addition to the
crew, guides and officials, 200 men will
leave San Francisco on the special
steamer. OF these the larger portion
will be from Chicago, but, it is said.
there will be scattering number from
all parts of the country.

will be permitted to go unless he takes
this quantity, Each one will be charged

thinks that for this sum he can land
them in Dawson City before Sept. 20.
The ship will carry a large lighter
and steam launch will be used to
tow the lighter from st. Michaels to
the Klondyke. After reaching st.
Michaels, cargo and passengers will be
transferred to the lighter. Capt. Her

to sell any more tickets, but it's repre-

none, with charity for all each unit in the
mighty organization must bring to their So
luton the best that is in him of virtue and
intelligence. Upon the wise and great the
duty weighs with corresponding force. but
upon the humble and weak also it presses,
according to their measure of the responsible
ity. To you, the descendants of those who in
the early struggle for Independence risked
their fortunes, their liberty and their lives in
the cause of self-government, no exhortation
is needed to spur you on in the effort to pre-
serve and perpetuate the inheritance your
fathers transmitted to US. To purify and pass
on to the future our republic, unimpaired in
its rich promise to the children of men, is
a work not less inspiring, not less worthy
of noble and continuous labor than was the
work aimed at and accomplished by the
fathers thereof.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 27-The
throngs about every shipping office
that has even the remotest Alaskan
relations have by no means diminished
1t would seem that the only circum-
stance which prevents the wholesale
depopulation of San Francisco Is the
limit Of the transportation facilities.
Every day sees some new scheme for
overcoming the difficulties in the way
of reaching the Klondyke, and the
feet of steamers and schooners pressed
into the service is growing steadily
The latest of the Klondyke transporta-
ton schemes is being engineered by
Capt Herman, of the firm of Herri-
man G. Mills. He has been approached
by number of persons anxious to go
to Klondyke and in response to numer-
Gus requests has mapped out plan
of reaching the diggings by the middle
Of September. He will charter a large

HARD LUCN STORY
Told by Two Miners Home from tn,
KlOndyke.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 27.-Two
more miners from the North have come
in on the City of Puebla and register
ed at the Commercial hotel They are
Henry Dore and j. E. Boucher, and
both tell tales of the hardest kind Of
experiences. Thirty days on flour and
water and $50 taken from the ground
in eight months is but portion of
Dore's experience. OF all those who
have reached the city his tale is one
that ought to make those without ex-
perience think twice before plunging
into unknown dangers. Mr.. Boucher
left his home in Wisconsin three years
ago, went in by Juneau and the Chill
koot to Forty Mile and had the usual
run of poor luck. He went to work
for $12.50 day, but soon gave out and
he went to prospecting. "I had no
better success at this than at work and
was pretty we'll disgusted when 1
heard of a strike at Klondyke.
struck a good claim and cleaned up
about $4,000. I am going back home
to enjoy myself till next spring, when
l will go back again If I do not sell
out in the meantime" Dore and
Boucher brought out nearly $4,000
but they decline to give the exact
figures.
