VACATION AT PLAT7SBURG.
Mckinley and Hobart Visit the Catholic
Summer schooi and the Au
Sable Chasm.

PLATTSBURG, n. Y. Aug. 10.-Presi-
dent Mckinley and Vice President Hobart
visited the Catholic Summer School of
America adjoining their hotel to-day. At
the entrance TO the grounds was a beauti-
full wreath made of evergreens and golden
rod, and the roadway was gay with Ma
uional colors, which were also displayed
conspicuously in and about the audito-
rum before which the reception was held.
Upon the entrance of the party, the large
audience arose and greeted the President
with hearty applause. Still standing, the
audience sang song of welcome, The
Chief That We Love and Revere" At the
conclusion of the singing, Rev. DR.. La
velle, president of the school, welcomed
the President and Vice President to Cliff
Haven. The President then received all
who desired to meet him, and every m an.
woman and child present profted by the
opportunity.
The visit of the President to Au Sable
Chasm This afternoon was one which will
be long remembered. The party went by
special train and consisted of the Presj-
dent Vice Pre- sident, Mrs. Hobart. Secre.

chasm and did not seem to mind the hard
climbing. He greatly enjoyed the boat
ride through the rapids, where the water
rushes through rocky gorge hundreds of
feet deep.
Tomorrow the Presidential party will

talists for several weeks past, in fact ever
since the news OF the Klondike strike
reached the outside world, and terms were
only arranged within the past few days.
Both miners have refused to make pub.
lie the names of the hackers of the expedi-
ton, but it is known that they are among
the most wealthy of the capitalists of
New York, and that thew are ready to
back up the Judgment of the two Cali
fornia experts TO the extent OF millions II
necessary. Messrs. Bowie and Tregidgo
are to locate or buy both placer and quariz
properties, as they may deem advisable,
and to employ as many men as can be
used to advantage to develop the mines.
The outfit taken by the fortunate Cali
fornians is one of the most complete that
has yet left this City, comprising every
thing calculated to make life in the frozen
regions of Alaska bearable as we'll as he
most modern tools for prospecting. The
outfit cost something like $4,000, the ex-
perts having carte blanche in this line as
in everything else.
With money in plenty to hire all the
help they may need, the experts hope to
make the passage of the treacherous Yu-
kon pass before the winter fairly sets in,
and to be at Dawson before many who
have started ahead of them. Included in
the outfit are boats in sections that will
be put together at St. Michaels. and In
dams will be employed to hurry the ex-
petition to it's destination.
The supplies OF the expedition are TO go
out ON the steamer Hum boldt, which will
sail to-day for st. Michaels, but the party
took the evening train for Seattle, where
they will join the vessel. This course
was taken to keep the news OF the
expedition as much a secret as possible,
and to avoid the annoyance OF refusing

have besieged the experts for p rmission

AT Seattle the experts will be joined by
other represent atives OF the New York
hackers, berths for all having been en-
gagged by telegraph from New York. Two
of the boats that the Hum boldt carries on
decks are for the use of this party and
the expedition will go ahead without rel
erence to the other passengers on the
steamer. Mr.. Bowie is to receive $25, 900

BLISS WARNING.
The Secretary of the lnterlo
Calls Atte ntlon to Grave


WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug. 10.-Sec-
rotary Bliss has taken cognizance OF the
rush to the klondike gold fields and
Alaska and has issued the following warn
in to the general public:
10 whom it may concern: In view OF infor-
nation received this department that 5000
persons, with 1000 tons OF baggage and freight
are now in waiting at the entrance to White
Pass, in Alaska, for an opportunity to cross
the mountains to the Yukon River, and that
many more are preparing to join them, deem
it proper to call attention OF all who contem-
plate making that trip to the exposure, priva-
ton, suffering and danger incident thereto at
this advanced period of the season, even if
they should succeed in crossing the noun
tains. To reach Dawson City, when over the
pass, 700 miles of difficult navigation on the
Yukon River, without adequate means of
transportation will still be before them, and
ii is dou btful if the journey can be completed
before the river is closed by ice.
am moved to draw public notice to these
conditions by the gravity of the possible con-
sequences to people de stained in the mountain
Gus wilderness during five or six months OF
an Arctic winter, where no relief can reach
however great the need. q. n BLISS,
Secretary Of the Interior.

TO STORE THE GOLD.
The Dominion Government Has a
Project for Establishing
"Treasure-HOu

The Dominion Government HaS
Project for Establishing
treasure House."
MONTREAL, QUEBEC, Aug. lot is
understood the Dominion Government
has under consideration project in con-
neciion with ths administration in the
Yukon district for the establishment OF
treasure house." in which will be stored
the gold of miners and for which they will
receive drafts on United States or Cana
dian banks of the full value OF their gold
dust. The importance of such a de-
pository IN such country as the Klon-
dixie district is readily estimated. Under
existing conditions the task OF gusruing
their gold is an arduous addition to the
labor OF the miners. 1t is expected that
this provision for what is practically
banking facilities will go far toward
concillng the miners to the 10 per cent
royalty which they will have to pay to the
Government. Practically they will be
paying an income tax Of 10 per cent for
the preservation of law and order, the
storage Of gold and for its safe delivery to
the market. If the gold is stored in a
central place under this proposed plan
the officials will find the task of presery-
ing order greatly slmplified, Tor the
miners will not be under the necessity Of
carrying arms nor will the rougher sort
likely spend as much gold in riotous liv-
ing. 1t will. OF course, be necessary for
the Government to take great precautions
to insure the safety of the gold, but the
presence of fifty or 100 mounted police and
three or four Maxim guns will be great
deterrent to the envious and greedy.

SPREAD OF THE FEVER.
Kansas. Oklahoma and Indian Ter

WICHITA, KANs., Aug. 10.-Southern
Kansas. Oklahoma and the Indian Terri

the ranks of the Klondyke gold-seekers.
Scarcely town in these limits has failed

many of them they go in companies Of
from two to six. Nearly ali of them are
we'll supplied with money and 60 with
full knowledge OF the difficulties which
they will encounter. Men in all trades
and professions have formed pools to
grubsteke prospectors. and even the
women are sacrificing their jewels and
foregoing accustomed Injuries to follow
the examples OF their husbands.
Rich finds of gold, silver, platinum and
extensive coal and asphalt beds in the In
dian Territory recently set every body
wild, and prospectors began hocking into
the new Ell Dorado, but no sooner did the
reports of the Klondike discoveries reach
them than they turned their faces north

John Lawler, owner of half interest in
the Hill ide mine, eighteen miles from
Phoenix, Ariz., one of the best gold prop
critics in the Territory, is i'll the City. He
is on his way to Juneau on bus ness IN
connection with the development OF
mines in the Klondike district. He has
already grubstaked and dispatched five
men to Dawson City, and he believes
there is good chance there for him to
make another fortune. Mr.. LAWYERS home
is at Prescott.
"All things considered, / think Arizona
about the best mining country in the
world said Mr.. LAWYER; ''but just now
there is furry IN regard to Kiondike and
like great many others am trying my
luck there. Altogether seven or eight
men, perhaps more, have gone there.
There is general interest in the mines

ing can always be readily effected
at Skagaway, while it is very
difficult ard even dangerous to
life and property at Dyea, where the
tides, owing to the peculiar shape of the
inlet and its relation to the larger body of
water into which it opens, are piled up
until they reach height of some twenty
three feet, covering the sand bars at the
lower part of the river for some distance
UP. A vessel cannot get within mile
and a half of the village or Healys, which
is the first place where goods can be
securely placed.
At Skagaway deep water is right up to
the shore, with level ground for landing
purposes, and the tides are not nearly so
high as at Dyea.
The comparative advantages of the place
were not well understood when the Cana
dian merchants requested the Secretary
of the Treasury to make Ty-a (Dyea) q

Gums ances might pot have been discerned
