T. A. A. W. AND THE PARADE
Mr.. 9. c. Heyman Writes Letter on
the Subject.

With reference to the published state
ments that the T. A. A. w. had refused
an invitation to participate in the moral
parade during the Fall Festival, s. G.
Heyman, president of the club has
written the Journal a letter in which
he says:
rejected the invitation after heated
discussion.
This statement is untrue as the T. A.
A. w. as an organization have never
received an invitation by word or by
letter to take any part in this Floral
parade. 1t is true that Mr.. Canniff, one
or the members of the T. A. A. w. and
VINO was appointed an assistant mar
shall of the bicycle parade had posted a
notice in the rooms of the I. A. A. w.
inviting the members to participate IN
the bicycle parade. Mr.. CanniH was
mlSrepresented at this meeting and the
members We're led to believe that ne
mad acceped an invitation In benaf OF
the L. A. A W., something which he
caused the so-calIed heated discussion
but afterwards the members learned
that Mr.. Canniff was simply represent
ing an individual and not the L. A. A.
w. The matter was dropped.
Another statement that was positive
ly untrue is that'"The strife among the
wheelmen here was caused by the state
meet recently held here Claudy was
suspended and some side with the de-
cision and some think he was imposed
upon"
w ME II IS true the suspension Oh Mr.
Claudy has caused some comment in
the club, the remark that the strife
anlo tie wheelmen was wholly caused
by that is not true and it had nothing
whatever to do with the T. A. A. WIS
reported refusal to participate in this
parade.
The object of that special meeting of
the T. A. A. w. was How to raise 16O
odd dollars to meet a deficiency caused
by the last race meet which was the
greatest ever held in Topeka and which
that 1000 wheelmen that Mr.. Robson
speaks of in your Mondays issue, and
the general public failed to appreciate.
AS the T. A. A. w. received no invi-
tation to participate in the Floral pa
rade as an organization, they could not
consequently take any action in the
matter
Trusting you will give this letter the
same prominence that you have given
the other articles, am, yours respect
fully, S. c. HEYMAN,
President T. A. A. w.

MILES OF TENTS.
Provisions, Baggage and Dead Horses
on the Dyea Trail.

Port Townsend, Wash, Sept. 2.-The
steamer Faral1on arrived last night, six
days from Dyea and Skaguay. The
officers of the steamer tell interesting
stories of the condition of affairs at
both landings. They say that at Dyea
the people are slowly but surely cross
ing the divide and the road for ten
miles up the canyon is strewn with
tents. provisions, discarded ba gage
and dead horses. Less than 1000 peo-
pie are on the beach at Dyea, as all
make efforts to get across the divide as
soon as landed. AT Skaguay things pre-
sent different appearance. There are
between 5000 and 5000 people at that
place. Less than so men have sue
ceeded in getting over White pass and
hundreds have given up trying to cross
till spring. Steamer officers say rain
had fallen continuously there for eight
days and that it is utterly impossible
to cross. All kinds of business is -four
ishing. Many men are selling outfits
for little or nothing, while others are
buying everything offered for sale and
using the same to stock general retail
stores which they are setting up on the
beach. A saloonkeeper at Dyea is buy
ing flour, emptying it in a heap in
tent and selling the empty sacks at rs
cents each.
The Fara1Ion officers deny that a man
was killed a Skaguay for stealing, but
say that in case of theft, death would
be the result.

OFFICE, OFFICE, OFFICE,
Seems to be All That Kansas States
men (Pl interest Themselves In.

[From the Leavenworth Timesl.
The handsome gentleman from the
western part of the state who succeed
ed the honorable jeremiah Simpson in
congress and later was in turn dis
placed by the Populist sage from Medi-
cine Lodge, was in the city yesterday
in the person of ex-Congressman Ches-
ter I. Long of Medicine Lodge. Mr..
Long was in the city for the avowed
purpose of discussing with Senator
Baker postoffice appointments for that
part of the short grass country en-
braced in the Seventh congressional
district. 1t is expected that number
of recommendations will follow the
conference held last evening in the Ma
tional hotel. The little list which Mr..
Long carried in his inside pocket in
Guided Is minor postoffice appointments
and upon the amount of success the
distinguished ex-congreSS1nan has in
pushing the claims of the names on the
aforesaid list hangs the hopes and fears
of as many anxious office seekers.
In reply to query, Mr.Long said that
the matter of these appointments had
not been before discussed and when
action was taken, presumably today,
whatever was done would be final. Mr..
Long does not anticipate any trouble in
agreeing with Senator Baker as to the
proper men to recommend.
Mr. Long explained his presence in
Topeka with the statement that he
went there to interview Fourth Assist
ant Postmaster Joe Bristow in refer
ence to some postoffices down his way.
In fact postoffices appears to be the all
absorbing topic with Mr.. Jerry Simp-
sons late opponent.

CARGOES OF WHISKY
Cause Sub Port Officers at Dyea Much
Confus on

Port Townsend, Wash, Sept. g.
News comes from Dyea that much
trouble has resulted from the hasty es-
tablishment of a SUPPORT at Dyea,
without, it is alleged, adequate prepa-
rations or proper instructions of Off
Gals.
The result is that no settled policy is
pursued regarding the admission of
miners outfits belonging to British Co.
lunbia prospectors bound for the klon-
dixie.
1t is said that many supplies and even
much liquor has been improperly adj
nlitted. The foregoing statements are
understood to be contained in an off,
cial letter received here today by the
steamer FaralIon, from John U. Smith,
United States commissioner at Dyea.
Smith says that whisky is one of the
principal features of a cargo of the nu-
nerous vessels running there. He an
ticipates much trouble unless decided
instructions are given concerning the
proper handling of goods while in
American territory.

standing jump.
Mr.. Campbell led off and easily clear
ed four feet on the marble floor Capt.
Waters gave his arms a few swings
and lit a foot farther. Campbell tried
again and came up to the mark made
by the doughty captain. Neither man
succeeded in doing any better until Mr..
Stafford said: Just let me into this
game He weighs in the neighborhood
of 300 pounds but that was no obstacle
He toed the mark and his gigantic form
flew through the air and lit at least a
foot farther than either of the other
athletes.
The floor trembled and Bailiff John
Coyne ran out Of the court room, GER
tain that there was an earthquake but
when order was restored the eX-county
attorney was given the palm of victory,
