An Error in Longitude.

WASHINGTON, April 12. The unal-
lotted lands Of the eastern end of the
Southern Ute Indian reservation in
Southwest Colorado probably will be
opened to settlement this summer by
presidential proclamation. Though the
allotments have been completed, the
question of opening has been deferred
for long time, owing to what seems
to be conceded grave error in fixing
the 1o7th meridian of longitude. The
meridian probably will be established
late in May.

Committee Reorganization Attracting
Much Attention in the Senate.
WASHINGTON, April l2.-The out
look for the week in the senate is SO
much befogged by the situation with
reference to committee reorganization
that it is impossible to forecast the
proceedings with any degree of ac-
curacy. There is a possibility that
this question may consume great
deal of attention and if it is not satis-
factorily disposed of it may be used to
prevent effort to secure action on inn
portant measures.
Aside from the matter of reorganiza-
ton there are four important questions
before the senate. These are the Nor
gan Cuban resolution, the bankruptcy
bill, the arbitration treaty and the
appropriation bills

 perionce in San Francisco--Now in
 Seattle.
 Landlord T. A. McCaffrey of the Globe hotel has received a letter from his friend, Joseph Desmond, who is on his way to the I<londike gold fields of Alaska MT. Desmond, who for several years resided in New Haven, left this city several weeks ago and went to San Francisco, where he remained for some time, and then went to Seattle, Wash, where he was stopping when he wrote the letter referred to, MT. Des- mond states that Seattle is crowded with people from all parts of the world all of them bound for Klondike and all of them looking for work while they are remaining in Seattle, so the pros pect for the winter is not very flatter- ing.
 The writer refers to the climate as folloWs Tn the morning the fog is dense; at noon there is little sun shine, and in the evening light rain falls" The writer states that he was unabe to find any employment in Sar Francisco owing to the presence of SC many Chinese, Japanese and men tenn porarily located there while en route tc Alaska During his journed MT. Des- mond has obtained as much informa tion as possible regarding the Klondike country from which knowledge he. has formed the opinion that provided a mat can get there with sufficient provisions he can earn a bigger stake for th' length of time than in any other par of the country.
