THE YUKON PATROL.
Uncle Sam Will Probably
Undertake 1t.
NAVAL STATIONS TAKEN AND
A GUNB0AT WILL
PATROL,
Roosevelt Does Not Think That The
Revenue Marines Would Answer
As There Is Much LawleSSneSS
And Recommends a Regu-
lar Naval Vessel.

New York, Sept. pa special to the
Herald from washington says:
Acting Secretary Roosevelt favors
the assignment of a naval vessel to
the Yukon river for patrol duty. The
suggestion has been made by Lieut..
G. NJ. Stoney, of the navy, that stern
wheeler be obtained by the government
and sent to the Yukon to patrol the
stream, beginning next spring. Lieut..
Stoney's proposition also contemplates
the establishment of three stations on
the Yukon, one at each end and the
third in the centre, at each of which
will be stationed about twenty
marines, a surgeon and an officer. He
points out that lawlessness has pre-
vailed to an alarming extent in AL
aska and that a naval force is abso-
lutely necessary to suppress 1t and
preserve order.
Mr.. Roosevelt opposes the suggestion
that the revenue cutter service can
maintain order in Alaska as well as
the navy.
sThe conditions which will almost
inevitably arise on the Yukon river
when that avenue of communication
opens up in the spring WILL" he says,
''be such as to call for the presence of
a military force, officers trained to
military duty Under military dfsci-
cipline. The officers and men of the
revenue service are excellent seamen
and most efficient i'll the performance
of their duties, but this duty calls for
something outside of the scope of
their training and experience. 1t
calls al. once for the sailor, the SOL
der, and in measure, the civil Off
Ger.
SHOULD the channel be discovered
sufficient to admit a revenue cutter,
one of our light draught gun boats
could enter with equal safety, and
once there would be the more effective
craft"
No one doubts at the Navy depart
ment that Mr.. Roosevelt's views will
be adopted by Secretary Long. In
such case, it is believed the gun boat
Wheeling, now on her way to Honolu-
lu, will be used on the Yukon for pat
roll work, as it is intended to send her
to Alaskan waters as soon as the Bal
timore arrives at Honolulu.

U. S. Naval Movements For That
Purpose.
New York, Sept. ga special to
the Herald from Washington, says:
AS an aid to expedition in placing
the cruiser Baltimore in active service
upon the arrival of the Philadelphia
from Hawaii, Acting Secretary Roose-
Welt has directed that $50 men be
transferred from New York to Mare
Island. The Philadelphia has on board
several short term men and the men
ordered to the Pacific slope will take
their places in the crew of the Balti-
more, which will be placed in commits
sion with a short crew on October 1sr.
Although the orders to the Phiiadel-
phia to return home contain a pro-
vision that she shall not leave Homo
lulu until Rear Admiral Miller is GER
tain the cruiser Naniwa is started for
Japan, the Navy department officials
believe the Naniwa has already left
Hawaii.
The Wheeling, it is believed, will
reach Hawaii in thirteen days, so that
the Philadelphia will be in California
waters in fifteen days, or about Octo-
Der s, provided the Naniwa has gone.
Twenty-four hours will probably be
allowed for the transfer of officers and
men to the Baltimore and six days
later, or about October 18th, a modern
American cruiser, in splendid condition
will be at Honolulu, where she will re-
main for three years, If necessary.
In the meantime, 1t is proposed to
keep the battle ship Oregon at San
Francisco, ready to start for Hawaii
the moment danger is reported. The
authorities have learned, no doubt
from official sources, that Japan is
sending soldiers to Hawaii, who are
to make an attempt to. overthrow the
Dole government.

Ex-President Cleveland has pur-

in the village of Cedar Swamp. The
pond is well stocked with black bass,
pickerel and has been a resort of Mr..
Cleveland and his friends this season.
1t is said that Mr.. Cleveland intends
to build a camp on the shore of the
pond and this report has been the
cause of rise in the price of land on
the shore of other ponds in that vicin-
ity. Elbow Pond is six miles from
Gray Gables and is reached by a we'll
kept road through the woods from near
the head of the bay.

He Learns of the Crime Very Late in

New York, Sept. 25.-Charles Hoff-
mann, head of the clothing firm of
Hoffman, Rothschild & Co., of this city
and San Francisco, has just learned
for the first time that his brother and
business partner, Isaac Hoffman, of
San Francisco, has been murdered.
At the time of Isaac Hoffman's death
his brother Charles, senior member of

ceived a telegram announcing the
death, but not stating the cause. Mr..
Hoffman did not learn that his broth
er was believed to have committed sui

home here. Mr.. Hoffman wrote to
his brothers widow, asking what could
have caused Isaac to kill himself.
In reply he received a long telegram
stating that it was not suicide but
murder. The telegram accuses Theo-
dore F. Figel, trusted employee, who
had been with the house for years,
and who is now under arrest in San

TOUGH ON SMOKERS.
Kentucky Tobacco Cut 60 Per Cent
Dr. INrnet

Kentucky Tobacco Cut So Per Cent
By Frost.
Cincinnati, Ohio, Sept. ga spec
ial to the Commercial Tribune from
Louisville, Ky, says:
The extent of the damage caused to
the tobacco crop in Kentucky by frost
is greater than was at first supposed.
In the weekly review of the leaf tobac-
co market which the Louisville Tobac-
co Warehouse association has just is
sued, an estimate of the hurley crop
is made. This review is prepared by
Mr.. Henry Glover, president of the as
ISOLATION, a trade authority whose
responsibility is universally recogniz-
ed. Mr.. Glover also mentions in gen.
eral way the damage by frost.
He puts the hurley crop at only 50
per cent of last years crop, which was
very much below the average. He es-
Inmates that 80 per cent of the crop
was uncut Monday and that one-third
of this was more or less frosted.
Some of this was killed and some only
blackened. Tobacco in the low lands
was generally killed, but that on up
lands was unhurt. The low-lands to-
bacco was the best of the crop. Some
warehousemen think 40 per cent of the
crop was uncut when the frosts came.
The Circular Review is an extremely
bullish document. The heaviest dam
age was to the big Davies county to-
bacco fields. Reports from all the tele-
nhcne stations in the county are GER
tainly diseouraging to the farmers.
Judging from these reports it can be
safely said that As per cent of the to-
bacco of the county is a loss and when
it is considered that there was no more
than IS per cent of an average crop
in acreage, the crop is reduced to about
35 per cent of an average.
The highest estimate on the yield
cannot be put at over 20 per cent of
the average.
