brother of Mrs. Griffith and Mrs.
David Wilson.
David Jones and AL Griffith were
the projectors of the enterprise, Mr..
Jones having recently organized q
company in Butte, Mont, with the
cooperation Of Mr.. Griffith, for the
purpose of prospecting and exploit
ing gold mines and claims in the
Klondike country.
The Montana company furnished
the outfits and agreed to pay Eve
dollars per day to the respective
families of the projectors from the
date that they reach Seattle during
the time of contract, which expires
at the expiration Of twelve months.
In consideration of which the party
agree to give one-half of all gold
made within the limit
Of the contract.
The prospectors are empowered
with authority to hire and employ
help in prospecting and develop
ment Of claims whenever they deem
it judicious to do so.
The contract was drawn up with
The privilege of being renewed if
20 desired by the parties.

A Alaska Camp Carried Away.

Sheep camp. nine miles above
Finnegan's Point, on Chilkoot Pass,
was nearly wiped off the face Of the
earth Saturday morning by q Sec
ton of a glacier breaking loose
from the main body, which came
crashing down the canyon for two
and half miles, carrying death
and destruction in its wake. There
was only one man killed, number
were seriously hurt but mono fatally.
The loss of supplies is estimated at
$25, 900. Many lost their all after
toiling for many days TO get them
that far on the way, and many pro-
fessional packers that had been
working for weeks and months lost
their earnings in the twinkling Of

mind yesterday afternoon because he had been

then told the officer that he should at least be civil
to those who treated him courteously. and the
policeman exclaimed that nc would lock him up II
he heard any moro from him. a man in citizens
clothes then appeared and ordered the policeman 10
arrest the Coroner
when the policeman said at the ton that had
been disordery," Mr.. Fitzpatrick said yesterday. II
told him that II be made such a charge he did not
speak the truth. He then left the station told
the sergeant at the desk TO call the policeman back
and that Il the policeman would reiterate the
charge Of diSorderly conduct against me | would
demand to be locked up. The sersesrt said he did
not wish 10 lock me up.
"A few moments later q coach drove up 20 the

needed q coach could hire ami pay for one Some

NARROW ESCAPES
Woodbury., ~ j., June 23-Therc was q rear
end collision here night which, but for a fortu.
nate circumstance. would have resulted In the
killing Of a score Of people and the injury OF per-
haps hundred more. The Maurice River fast
freight. northbound. crashed into the rear end
OF the Cape May express, which was loaded with
passengers returning from the sea3hore. Five
were wrecked. Two Of them were the rear
cars Of the passenger train. Three freight cars
were smashed to kindlings and the engine Of the
freight was completely wrecked
The engine tore clear through the rear pas
senger coach, splitting It In two lengthwise and
setting the car on fire. Ten minutes before the
crash came this car was filled with passengers
The forward end Of the rear car was driven into
the car ahead and this suffered fate similar
10 that Of the rear coach The broken freight
cars scattered the freight in all directions. The
greatest excitement existed, for time 1t was
firmly believed that many passengers were in
the wreckage.
The express had stopped because Of hot box
The box had given trouble all along the run. and
the passengers knew from previous experience
with it that the stop meant another delay Of at
least fifteen minutes. The train crew confirmed
heir belief. and the passengers almost without
exception alighted and went into the fields along
the railroad to gather daisies Only two or
three passengers remained in the two rear cars
and not over a hundred were in the Of the
train when the crash came. The few who were
IN the rear cars warned just in time and
managed to escape Had the coaches been flied
they were before the stop there would not
have been time for more than few to escape.
AS 1t was. dozen persons were more or less
injured Some Of them were in the forward cars
and were injured by falling glass. The most
seriously injured are the following:

up Of the hottest races ever witnessed IN IN

sturdy Yale freshmen rowed the two-nile
course in 010h: a trine lighter crew Of Har-
ward freshmen fought them every inch OF the
way. and finished trine over two lengths be-
hind them, in 9:2Gh; and the Cornell freshmen.
whose college record is that none Of its fresh
man crews have ever been beaten before. finished

The best previous record for two miles was
made by the Columbia freshmen crew OF '04 at
New-London In 1891 In 041 While the condi-
tions here are better for fast time than upon the
sluggish and shallow water Of the Thames, and

very remarkable one, all three OF the crews

All three Of the crews used every pound Of
power in their boats at every stage Of the two
miles, and each crew at some period Of the race

crowds here tonight being in some measure

had beer badly neglected and could not be
locked upon as a representative freshman crew.
On the contrary, the Yale crew Of youngsters
has been said to be more sure Of winning than

crews have had equal attention paid to them
The chances. therefore. as picked out tonight
are that the order Of Fridays finish is likely
to be Harvard, Yale. Cornell.
