Seattle ON The Steamer Star.

SEATTLE, Wash, Aug. 81. The
steamer George E. Starr arrived at her
dock this morning shortly after II
o'clock from Dyea and, Skaguay and
was met by great crowd of people,
it having been reported that several
men from Klondike, having made their
way to salt water overland, were on
board. This report proved true, but
the interest centered in the appearance
of one passenger Ed Thorpe, who is
reported to hove somewhere in the
neighborhood of $4,000 in Klondike
gold In his possession. Thorpe and his
companions talked, but it is impossible
to get anything definite from them
Willis Thorpe, the father of Ed Thorpe
received letter a few days ago on
the Alki from his son saying that he
had $4,000 in gold at least, that is
what Willis Thorpe is alleged to have
told his friends, but now Thorpe and
his three companions on the steamer
agreed on only one point in telling their
story and that is that they have $4,000
between them.
Four men on the steamer are direct
from Dawson. They are George

field and Jack Ross and their Indian
guide, Max Schwattway Stewart
went to the Yukon in July, 1896, and
located a claim on Elordado creek, a
branch of Bonanza creek and about
sixteen miles from Dawson. When their
party left Dawson City July 4, nothing
had been heard of the discoveries on
Stewart river The party came up
the Yukon to Pelly river, which they
reached on the 18th of July From
there they came over the Dalton trail
and reached Skaguay Aug. H. Dalton
trail necessitates packing a distance
of between 400 and 500 miles and is
used mostly for driving stock over the
Yukon. 1t is the intention of all the
party to return to their mines at once
on the next trip of the steamer George
Starr if they can get ready. They all
came out after supplies. Mr.. Stewart
said supplies run short in the spring
and that flour went up to $40 per sack
AT present it is $12 per cwt.
Old miners on the Yukon say that
the transportation company promises
every year to have plenty of provisions
for the next winter, but that the sup
ply invariably runs short.

lery to watch the sensational develop
ments in wheat. At the first stroke of
the gong, September swung up to $1.02,
selling also down to $1.01A at the same
instant in other parts of the pit. The
crowd of buyers fought vigorously
among themselves to get possession Of
the few lots offering and quickly bid
the price up to $1O3k by rapid strikes
of 1ac or more at a clip. The bears
were nowhere. It was feverish clam
or for wheat from all sources. Eleventh
hour bulls, those who never come into
buy until prices have already had a
big advance, were particularly promin-
ent in the early dealings.

rest of the list fell off a little both

For a time the whole market rested
like some huge monster taking breath
after a fray. But towards midday the
restless energy of the bulls started,
prices climbing up once more Just
before the close September reached
$1.053s, easing off later to $1.O51A, which
was the official closing figure.

as that which greeted the similar

more wheat, forcing September still
higher to $1065s
o 1t was feverish day, giving prom
ise of sensational markets in the
future. While there were several
points in the news today which, under
ordinary circumstances, might have
given the bears a foothold, they had
no influence in view of the overpower-
ing bull sentiment among traders.

was taken for granted that the market
would rule high, and the selling cf
cash wheat in this market yesterday
for 81 a bushel had served as an adj
vance movement for futures. The week
closes with an advance of nearly 19
cents for the week, a squirt that has not
been equaled in years, and which has
been accompanied by sensational crop
and market news from all parts of the
world
There was very little gossip in cir
culation today all markets being too

ERROR OF
MILLIONS

WASHINGTON, Aug. 21-An error of
considerable magnitude has been dis
covered in the treasury statistics relat-
ing to wool imported for consumption
in 1898. The chief of the bureau of
statistics reports to the treasury de-
partment that in going over the figures
for the year in making some special
comparisons it was discovered that
woods of class 8, imported in the fiscal
year of 1898, were reported to have
been 133 1877 $50 pounds. These figures
are too high by 26.3O2,O00 pounds, an
error to that amount having been made
in entering the imports for immediate

been marketed. very conservative
estimate is that 12O,0Oo,OO0 bushels are
being harvested in Minnesota and the
two Dakotas. Previous crops are abb
solutely exhausted. The present rise
means $40,00O,000 extra for farmers of
these three states. The present price
is not as high as the legitimate situa-
ton warrants. The big crowd of farm
ers will tumble over each other to sell
at these prices. This may cause tenn
porary reaction, but when the last rush
is over I see nothing to prevent higher
prices. Nothing but politicians can
prevent big boom and prosperity,
and we have present reason to be
thankful to Divine Providence that our
jingo congress is not in session.
Mr.. Washburn says: "A large pro.
protion of the winter wheat crop IS
still in the hands of farmers, while

quarter ending Dec. 81, 1892. The total
imports of class 8 woods in 1898 should
have been stated at LOG, 6,S95,5S1 pounds
The change made necessary by the dis
covery will result in raising the aver
age value Of wool per pound in 1893, as
given by the bureau of statistics, from
76 cents to 95 cents. The error was
made in pointing off the figures receiv-
ed from Philadelphia. Attention is
called to the correction, in view of the
Importance of comparisons to be made

WASHINGTON, Aug. 21-It is prob

States for the settlement of all claims
on account of the Cuban trouble by

pointed in 1871 which settled the claims

insurrection of that time. 1t can be
stated that although numerous claims
of American citizens against the gov
ernment of Spain for injuries done
their persons and property in the island
of Cuba during the present revolution
have been filed with 5he state depart
ment, no formal presen tation of these

imagine that when they dispose of the

revolt against the American capitalists,
who have never used their power so
ruthlessly as since the last presidential
election.
The Westminster Gazette then pro-
ceeds to denounce the "extortions" Of
the, new United States tariff, which it
adds ''is one of the worst and most
fruitless sources of corruption of public
men and public servants"
In conclusion, the Westminster Ga
zette says:"The degree of success which

the rottenness of something, and next
time attention will be directed less to
the gold standard than to the standard
of public life"

Wheat Prices Higher, but Less Ex-

CIteHeut apparent.
September wheat opened cents
higher in Minneapolis yesterday morn
ing and wheat traders made ready for
the fray in full expectancy that, with
that advantage to begin with, the
session could not close without realIZ-
ing 81 a bushel for September wheat,
or nearly so. There was a great deal
Of confusion. Longs were undecided
whether to take profits or stand for
a higher level. There was uncertainty
as to whether the market would hold
because heavy realizing sales might
bring reaction at any moment But
the doubts were swept away by the
persistency of the market to sell high
er. AS Chicago September approached
the dollar mark, there was some fluc-
tuation caused by realizing business
but rallies followed each momentary
break, and Chicago soon reported the
first purchase of September wheat at
81 by Schwartz, Dupee & Co. There
was ringing cheer as the result was
announced, and then the market broke
off a little and closed at noon.
Cash wheat sold in Minneapolis at
$1.07A, the highest point reached as
yet, and which leaves new wheat close
to the dollar point
The market was less exciting today

although, as soon as these claims have
been filed at the state department. a
notice of such filing has been presented
to the foreign office at Madrid. 1t is
doubtful, under the present circum-
stances whether, If any formal presen-
tation of the claims were made at this
time, Spain would recognize it. The
administration is, therefore, resolved to
follow the precedent in this matter and
to await the cessation of hostilities,
and meanwhile to negotiate a treaty
or convention for the appointment of
claims commission.
Gen. Woodford, in his instructions,
was directed to negotiate such a con-
yention as was arranged by Gen.

GOLLI's EXECUTION.
Details of 1t Sent Out From Spain by
Letter

LONDON, Aug. 21.-The Spanish
government has prohibited the publica-
ton in Spain, or the telegraphing
abroad of the details of the execution
at Vergara yesterday of Michel Angiol-
lilo, the Spanish anarchist, who shot
and killed Senor Canovas del Castillo,
the premier of Spain on Sunday, Aug.
8. Letters, however, have been received
here containing details of the execu-
tion. The writer's say that the anarch-
list slept but little during Thursday
night owing to his having partaken of
coffee during the evening, which kept
him awake. But his pulse was quiet
and unaltered.
The prisoner took a cup of coffee at
o'clock on Friday morning and drank
