Los Angeles, Cal, Dec. 21.-J. E. Per
New England Whip company. started
from this city today with a party of Is
others for a new gold field in the
Northwest Territory. The new field is
said to extend over Is miles along a
tributary of the Stickeen river, and to
be even richer than the KIondike coun-
try.
In one of his letters to parties here
concerning the discovery, Dawson, af-
ter whom Dawson City was named,
states that the region gives every indi-
cation Of abundance of gold, but that
it is even more inaccessible than KIon-
dixie, there being but one way to get in,
and that extremely dangerous. The
winters are more severe than on the
Yukon and of longer duration. The
nearest trading post or point of COM
municatiOn with the outside world is
several hundred miles.
Those who left this morning have
been quietly preparing for the trip for
five months, keeping everything secret,
as they wish to get in before any eX-
element causes a rush. The party will
leave San Francisco tomorrow for Vic
toria, B. c. By steamer from there
they go to Fort Wrangle, and thence
overland by the Stickeen river to their
objective point.
The information regarding the new
field has come direct from Messrs. Ogil-
vie and Dawson, Canadian officials,
who year ago made a survey of por-
lions of the Northwest Territory Act
ing upon instructions of these gentle
men, Mr.. Perrins has limited his party
to 16. Messrs. Ogilvie and Dawson will
join the party at Victoria.

WHAT LABOR POLITICS MEANS
SAM GOMPERS EXPLAINS INDIE
PENDENT ACTION.
It Means to 'Defeat the Enemies of
Our Cause, Irrespective of Party"
Labor News.

Denver. Colo. Dec. 2L-The Rocky
Mountain News today sent a telegram to
Samuel Gompers, president of the Amer
lean Federation of Labor, asking him to
outline the plans of organization for in
dependent action. The response was re-
ceived as follows:
Nashville, Tenn, Dec. 21.-The plans for
our political action in the interest of labor
are only in a tentative state at present
The American Federation of Labor pro-
poses, however, to take such political ac-
ton as will compel the lawmakers, the
executives and the judiciary to enact. to
enforce and to define laws in the interest
of our people. We shall elect our own
representatives wherever possible and at
ali times defeat the enemies of our cause
irrespective of party To achieve these
purposes, however, we realize that it is
necessary for the workers of our country,
east, west, north and south, to unite and
federate and concentrate our entire eff
forts to attain the greatest success.

JUDGE KINGS TRIP TO CUBA
UTAH CONGRESSMAN WILL IN
VESTIGATE THE SITUATION.
Hopes to Hear Both Sides of the
Story-Swedish Consul at Salt
Lake-Postoffice Discontinued.
Especial to The Herald.)

Washington, Dec. 21.-Congressman
King left for Tampa tonight on a trip to
Cuba that will occupy a fortnight and
perhaps longer. Before leaving the city,
Mr.. King said: II have decided to spend.
my vacation in Cuba for the purpose OF
ascertaining the real situation in the
island. We have had so many conflicting
stories from Cuba that ] confess have
a vague idea of the situation. although
my sympathies are strongly with the in
surgents. The question whether the plan
of autonomy as offered by Spain is prac-
teal or not is an important one and
shall give it special attention. In the
next month or so the whole world will
know whether autonomy has failed or
succeeded, but there is enough evidence
now in sight, if one were on the ground
to indicate the outcome shall be gone
as long as I find it advisable to remain
on the island. for 1 think the time will
be well spent.
Judge King carries letters from the sec
rotary of state to Consul General Lee,
from the Spanish minister at Washington
to General Blanco, the present governor OF
Cuba. and from special inside source,
which he automatically declines to re-
veal. He also has letters accrediting him
very cordially to the insurgent leaders.
Thus equipped he hopes to hear both sides
of the story and return with the fullest
possible information.

San Francisco, Dec. 2.-In mercan-
tile circles of San Francisco much at
tention is paid to news from the ORR
ent. The intelligence that a Russian
fleet has occupied Port Arthur follow
ing so closely on the news that Russia
had obtained a firm grip on Corea,
leads to the belief that active hostili-
ties between the Mikado and the Gar
cannot be long deferred.

visions. The merchants here antici-
pate a great demand for supplies to

RUNS IN THE BLOOD.
Insane Conduct of Young Helmbold,
of Buchu Fame

London, Dec. 21.-Charles Helmbold, son
of the late DR.. Helmbold of New York,
the well-known patent medicine propri-
etor. has been locked up and is awaiting
trial at Bow street police station on a
charge of threatening to kill United
States Consul General Osborne.
During the last three weeks he has been
demanding money. He told a story of the
seizure of his clothes and effects by the
Berlin consul and declared Mr.. Osborne
was responsible for the seizure. Helmbold
became so importunate that last Wednes-
day Mr.. Osborne ordered him to leave the
premises, Whereupon he became violently
enraged and shouted:
Damn you. I'll come back and shoot
YOU
Helmbold returned yesterday and re-
Deated his threat. Mr.. Osborne, remem-
bering the Terriss case, summoned a po-
lice officer and had him arrested
The physicians * him insane. He
has spent much tin in London of recent
years, living high when his family sent
him money and in deepest poverty be-
tween remittances. 1t is supposed that
the Berlin adventures he mentions are
imaginary; and it is said that his father
became insane before his death. An at
tempt was made to keep the affair a Sc
cret for the sake of Helmbolds family.

ANDERSON'S STORY OF MUTINY
KILLED THE SHIPS MATE TO
SAVE HIS OWN LIFE.
Denied That He Ordered the Sailors
to Throw the Mate Overheard;
Their Act Was Voluntary.

Norfolk, Va, Dec. 21.-Rapid progress
was made in the federal court today in
the Anderson case, and it will probably
be concluded tomorrow. so far as the
charge that John Anderson murdered
Mate Sanders of the schooner Olive
Pecker, is concerned. With the exception
OF some brief and not important testi-
mony in the morning, the day was almost
entirely consumed with the hearing OF the
evidence Of the accused, placed on the
stand by his counsel TO testify in his own
behalf.
In the course of the direct examination
Anderson held in his hand the large
marlinspil1e which had been introduced
as evidence. He was excited, dramatic
and very much in earnest.
he spoke rapidly and was with difficulty
kept within the limits of the examination
which WAS confined to the events of the
day Of the tragedy. His story, in its eS-
Sentials differed from that OF his mates
in that he alleged the mate was coming
toward him with the marlinSpike raised
to strike him when he shot him, killing
him to save his own life. He said he did
not burn the vessel, but that HaSborough
and March did. and that he eNerted no
force after killing the mate, but that all
worked together and no one was COM
PEELED to do anything. While District At
torney White was arguing against the
admissibility of certain evidence and quot
ing from statements of the accused. An
derson became excited and at one point
the lawyer, who sharply bade him sit
down, and the prisoner, with an appealing
look at his counsel, obeyed.
During the cross-eXamination witness
( admitted that he had lied TO the consul
at Bahia as TO how he acquired possession
of the captains pistol and denied that
he had stated for publication that he had
taken it out of the captains bunk. Asked
il he climbed down the rigging. Anderson
said he did not remember. He denied that
the mate said Tor Gods sake, don't
shoot" dramatically adding: He did
not say it, for he did not have any God.
If he had a God he would not have put
me where ! am today"
That is arguing that you have no God,
because you put the captain where you
did retofted the district attorney, as
Anderson choked back the sobs. When
he had mastered himself, still answering
the district attorneys questions he said:
John Lind called the men up after
the mate was killed. He could not re-
member whether he had the pistol in his
hands or pocket, when the crew came up.
He threw two of the pistols overheard
later on. He denied that he told the men
to throw the mates overheard they did
it ot their own accord.
Several witnesses were examined who
testified to the good character Anderson
bore in Sweden; and the court adjourned
until tomorrow for argument.

Make A FUSS.
Newsnaner Misleading.

Berlin, Dec. 21.-The Cologne Gazette
maintains the accuracy Of the state
ment that the Russian occupation OF
Port Arthur was connected with the
visit there OF the warship Daphne about
a week ago. AS a proof of it, it points
out that there was neither Russian
ship nor a Russian consul at Port Ar
thur at the time the Daphne visited
the harbor, and it argues that Russia
could only have learned of the visit
through China's complaint.
The Paris correspondent of the Co
logne Gazette telegraphed his paper
yesterday that week ago, in spite of
the protests of the Chinese, the British
warship Daphne entered the inner har-
Dor at Port Arthur, allegedly- to ascer-
tain whether there were Russian ships
there, and that the Russian occupation
of the port was connected with the

Washington, Dec 21-The navy de-
partment received news of the firing on
the Bancroft today from the state de-
partment, which had been informed
through Minister Angel at CONSTANT
nople of the outcome of the incident
The matter was not regarded as of
great Importance. In fact, several in
stances have occurred within the mem
Org of naval officers stationed at the
department of just such arbitrary eff
forts to enforce veXatious regulations
which are common to oriental seaports.
A similar rule is applied to Havana,
where the guns of Moro Castle do not
hesitate to fire at any vessel passing
in or out after nightfall, and the Rus
slams established a similar rule Though
more liberal in scope at Vladivostock,
the great Pacific fortress, after the
guards had awakened one foggy morn
ing to find that a large British squad
ron was lying under the guns of the
forts, having entered unseen in the
night.

MOST RIGHTEOUS JUDGE.
Set Aside His Own Order When
Convinced of Error.

Topeka, Kan, Dec. 22.-Several
months ago Judge c. G. Foster granted
an injunction to prevent the commits
sioners of Pratt county from collecting
taxes from the Wichita & Western
railroad. Today he received a personal
letter from the county commissioners
that while the poor people We're com
PEELED to pay their taxes or lose
their property the railroad was allowed
TO operate without any taxes. They
said that the school teachers were COM
PEELED to take county warrants for
their pay in some districts because the
railroad taxes could not be collected
on account of the injunction.
Judge Foster read the letter and at
once made an order for the receiver to
pay taxes amounting to about $4,000. He
set aside his own restraining order for
that purpose.
