Of Sept. 27, with twelve or fifteen pas
sengers.
THE next day we made up party
including Herbert Raymond of Seattle,
Bert Nelson, of Seattle; Harry Rob,
ertson, Of San Francisco and myself.
We started up the river in a small
river boat, the same one we had used
in going from Circle City to Dawson.
We left Dawson about 2 p. M, and were
soon on ourSway up the river. While
Jack Dalton left Dawson q couple of
days later the situation there was the
same as it was when we left, and I
can tell you in few words. The only
thing you could possibly buy was su-
gar, baking powder, spices and some
dried fruit No flour, bacon or any
thing Of that kind could be purchased
from any of the stores, simply because
they did not have them. SO long as
the stores had any provisions, prices
remained the same. / want to say that
the stores treated the men all right un-
der all circumstances, never advancing
the prices knowing a shortage was
coming and that they had but to ask
for high prices and receive them. L
can relate however, an instance where
a private party sold to a miner a sack
of -four for $75, and bacon at 81 per
pound
RELIEVED BY THE EXODUS.
H. A. Ferguson said: THE situation
at Dawson was relieved by the exodus
to Fort Yukon. 1 doubt if there will
be any actual starvation there, but
there will be a shortage. The old
timers have provisions enough to carry
them through. The stores are prac-
tically cleaned out. All they would
sell was five pounds of sugar to the
man. Flour could not be bought at all.
One or two sacks were quickly picked
up at 5000 per sack.
Wages are still SIS day, but they
are sure to go down to So by next sum-

the letters. Shortly after the Figaro
appeared, Comte Esterhazy visited
Gen. Pellieux, who was appointed by
Gen. Saussier, the military governor of
Paris, to conduct the investigation Of
the charges which have been brought
against him, and protested against
what he alleges is a fresh calumny."
A semi official note tonight says
that Gen. Pellieux's investigation was
almost finished, but that he viii now

letters; then he will act with absolute
impartiality, and see to 1t that salts

EsterhaZy.

conflicts with the police, who, on their
part, the order announces will abstain
from again trespassing upon the uni
versity premises.
1t was about Z o'clock this evening
when Herr Wolff was discharged. and
he was escorted to his residence by a
large and enthusiastic crowd. During
the collision between the police and the
students in front of the university, last
evening, the students were driven into
the buildings. The police attempted to
force their way in after them, but were
repulsed by the students, who from the
first floor windows pelted the police
with cuspidors, other missiles and
showers of ashes. During the conflict
several persons were injured and about
sixty arrested.
1t is asserted that the emperor at
first declined to accept the resignation
Of the cabinet, but Count Badeni re-
Piled: Your majesty, l cannot take
the responsibility. Bloodshed will en-
sue if l remain in office" Thereupon
the emperor reluctantly accepted the
resignation.
Baron Gautsch de Frankenthurn,
on whom has been thrown the difficult
task of constructing a cabinet capable
of conducting public business in the
presence of the various conflicting
forces at work in the unterhaus, is of
and conciliatory politician, popular with
all parties in Austria, as well as among
the Hungarians. His appointment Is
sure to make a good impression. %
Emperor Francis Joseph returned to
Vienna last night from visiting his
daughter at Wallsee. He was informed
that Vienna was on the brink of revOlu-
ton. The troops stood I'm readiness all
night, the palace being strongly guard
ed by a special force of police and
soldiery.
1t is understood that Count Golu-
chowski, the Austro- Hungarian foreign
minister, strongly advised the emperor
to dismiss the cabinet. AS an indica-
tiOn of the unprecedented character OF
the crisis, the police are tonight dis
tributing gratis copies of the Wiener
Zeitung, announcing the resignation.
Baron Gautsch will form a neutral
| cabinet of governmental officials, and
endeavor to arrange an understanding
between the German and Czech leaders
on the language question.
Herr Wolff, when arrested yesterday
in the reichsrath, resisted with such
energy that he broke away portion
of his seat. 1t took six Constables to
oVerpower him. Twice he sprang out
of the cab In which he was being car
ried to the police station; and as it
drove off with him at a furious pace,
he shouted to the crowd: people of
Vienna, don't let your Deputy Wolff be
arrested" The constables thrust him
back into the cab, threw a white muf-
fier over his mouth and held it there.
There is no doubt that this arrest, to-
gether with the fact that the Luege-
rites, yesterday, seeing that the popular
discomfort was rapidly growing, abdn-
doned their fence attitude and espous-
ed the obstructioniSt cause, was the
chief element that brought about the
sudden turn of events.

sparse poulation Of the country. A
territory means taxation, and the peo-
pie are not there to be taxed. 1t would
be of little avail to submit to congress
resolutions for change in the code
now in existence. These things must
be investigated by a committee, which
can ascertain the needs Of the people
by personal observation. We want an
extension of the land laws, the status
of the natives declared, the regulation
of the fish industry, the right of appeal
and laws for the preservation of game.
The smuggling evil must also be
dealt with by the committee. Last year

were smuggled into Alaska"

Thomas MaGee sr., the well-known
capitalist Of San francisco, In an in
teryiew with the correspondent of the
Associated Press, said "The excite
ment over the failure of the steamers to
bring food up to Dawson continued
when the Dalton party left The police
took charge for two days of the stores
and warehouses of the Northwestern
and Alaska Commercial company, as
precaution only. Flour was selling at
So a pound and no sale of less than
fifty pounds was made. No plans
have yet been formulated to avert the
starvation of those who are short of
provisions. Those well supplied have
rot much sympathy With those who are
short because of the fact that the ma
jority of these latter went in with lit
tie food although abundantly warned
at Lake Bennett in advance.
"It had not been discovered up to Oct.
16 who shot the two men in Dawson,
who were caught stealing food. One
was found dead, the other, fatally
wounded died at the Catholic hospital.
It is believed. that a secret organiza-
ton exists for the purpose of shooting
down thieves. The organization of
hunting parties for the winter to hunt
mcose was talked of and will be car
ried out.
"Dysentery and accompanying fea-
lures were general at Daw-
son last summer, caused by
miasma from the swamps on
which the business part Of the
town is built and poor drainage and
sewerage The Sickness will be worse
next summer. The river was bad, but
there Is one spring Of water out at
the Catholic hospital. Nothing was
talked but the grub question. The
solution will probably be a public
committee to gather up: voluntary or
enforced contributions. The food thus
gathered will be publicly dispersed
and paid for by work or cash by
those to whom it is given. The Yukon
river practically closed twice, about
Sept. 80 and again about Oct. 25, but
the ice ran out again and left the river
free, so that the parties who had TAX
en- chances Of being left out in the
wilderness, most of them short of pro-
visions, too, probably got to Dawson
or near it. This opening of the river
twice was phenomenon never known
to occur before. There was no new
mining excitement. With a peHsist-
ence heretofore unexplained, many
parties from Dawson, as well as new

comers, went up the Stewart river.
Nothing whatever, except good claims,
has as yet been discovered there.
The belief, however, Is that rich dis
coveries will be made there. Jack
Dalton and Mr.. Maloney, a lawyer
of Juneau, have purchased of Hugh
Ferguson and Alexander Mcdonald
Skookum claims Nos. and 2 for $S2,
900. 1t is reported that large ad-
vance has been offered to the buyers.
Skookum claims are looking up be-
cause some of them have yielded from
initial work as large returns as any
found elsewhere. Thomas MaGee Jr.
has purchased interests on some of
the best creeks, Eldorado, Bonanza
and Skookum. He will return to de-
velop these claims very early in the
spring. Business in connection with
them was what brought him out
An agent of the Rothschilds, who in
vested 100000 last fall. has made ar
rangements to return in the spring.
Because of the failure Of the Sep
tember steamers to take passengers
down the Yukon early enough to give
reasonable assurance that ocean con-
nections would be made at st. MI
chaels, hundreds who are intensely
anxious to get out of the country for
the winter will try later to get over
the ice and lakes with dogs and
sleighs this winter. Many of them
will suffer greatly because competent
guides and dogs are both scarce.
"In the opinion of Mr.. MaGee, no such
amount as $1,000, 600 was brought down
on the steamer A very small amount
of gold dust can be brought overland,
and he did not think that the drafts
carried by Ferguson and Leak, who
had the largest amount, would exceed
$50000"

For short time following his ordina-

sha, MINI. He was the third pastor of
the cathedral church and for eight
years contributed largely to increasing
the Importance and growth of the
cathedral parish. The growth of the
cathedral congregation necessitated the
division of the parish, and st. Marys
parish, in what was then "lower town"
was organized and Father Caillet was
appointed pastor of the new division.
