ONLY HALF A MILLION.

Treasure Ship Portland Was Not Very
Heavily Laden With Gold.
SEATTLE, Wash, Aug. 31.-The
steamer Portland arrived here at 8 a.
m. The vessel carried 1873 miners, each
of whom brought only small part of
his stake. The total amount of dust on
the vessel is perhaps $575,OO0. The
Portland was delayed by the failure of
the P. B. Ware to arrive at St. Michaels
and by a storm on the North Pacific
coasts. Among the miners on board,
with the total amount Of their mining
profits, part of which w2e brought with
them, are the following: J. Rowan,
$4,000; Jim Bell, $4,000; Joe Gold
smith, $35, 900; H. W. Powers, $35, 900;
w. w. Caldwell, $35, 900; w. Oler, $780,
900; G. K. lilly, $25, 900; F. W. Cobb.
$685. 900; W. Zehn, $4,000; A. Buckley,
$4,000; M. S. Lansing, $4,000; B. w.
Farnham, $4,000; M. R. Camler, $751;
900.
Best Claims All Taken.
The common report among returning
miners is that there is nothing in the
country now worth having that has not
been staked eff, and that the owners
will refuse fabulous prices for their
claims. Il
No new discoveries are reported from
the upper countries. The hillside abut-
ting on the richest claims on Bonanza
and Eldorado have been staked off and
several quartz claims have been filed
upon them in the same vicinity. The
rock taken uut of the quartz claims is
rich, but the hillside claims are not
showing up much.
It has been stated that the North
American Trading and Transportation
company brought $750,O0O from their
various stores on the Yukon, but this
cannot be verified. It is generally un-
derstood that the company would not
bring out its money until the next trip
of the Portland, when she would be
conveyed by United States revenue
cutter. u.... H. . -

ing men of the party. Perrine is a de-
tective. In February last he was given
a photograph and told to find its orig
inal. Accompanying the photograph
was an accurate description. Omaha
was the starting point of the trail and
he chased his man to Baltimore, thence
across the continent to Seattle and
thence to Juneau. Here he learned
that his quarry was bound for the
Klondike with a party Of nine by way
of Dyea and Chilcoot PASS. Perrine
went to Ottawa, obtained extradition
papers and, returning followed Novak,
capturing him at Dawson City. The
crime for which Novak is wanted is
murder and arson committed at Wal.
ford, Ia. Perrine spent $4,000 in the
pursuit of his man.

Yukon gold fields, writes from st. Mi

According to all reports received from
the upper country it will be impossible
to land sufficient food at Dawson City

R. T. Lying, the California agent Of the
Alaska Commercial company at st. Mi

idle men at Dawson, and new parties
are arriving every day. Miners return

THE LESSON OF CHICAGO.

election in Chicago. Mr.. Hesing was nominated
in response to a petition bearing upward OF
100 600 names while at the election he had III

In the first place. the Chicago campaign de-
welcomed so that Mr. Hesng did not get the I'M
divided independent vote The non-partisan
candidate who made a serious run was Mt
Harlan. and he polled 81 900 votes. The straight
Republican candidate. who is the inspiration OF
the anti-Iow Republicans in this city, polled
only about $1,000 votes, while the party hao
previously cast pol 900 votes. The Democrats
won the election, having 144,S3S votes. II win

THE REVENUE.

The National revenue Is a little larger I'D SEP
temher than II was In August. the nrst m1l'h
rnder the new tariff In the first eleven ltlsl
ness DAYS of September Treasury receipts were
Sc so7 Oe5 70 against SS,3S0,96S 80 in the first
eleven DAYS of August. The deficiency Is re-
duced from SJ91I 900 to s2,316,0oo. but mainly
hocause of smaller demands on the Treasury
this month than last. and the essential tact Is
that the gradual increase in revenue WHICH
there was reason to expect after the iirst month
under the new tariff has visibly begun. II Is
uot large as vet but therefore the more strictly
in accord with reasonable expectations. 1t Is
also n point of especial importance that IN
crease appears not only in the internal revenue
which depends upon progress OF the people
toward prosperity, but also in customs receipts
in which the influence of that progress Is for
the time retarded by the enormous imports in
anticipation of new duties. No re- sonabie cs-
innate Of the future revenue can be made with
ont taking into account both the gradual eX-
haustion of such supplies by sales and dis
trjbution to consumers and also the increase
in the purchasing power Of the people which
Improvement in business and In employment
Of wage-earners inevitably causes.
The increase in customs receipts, comparing
eleven days of September with corresponding
DAYS Of August, is about per cent, and such
an increase in the nature Of things grows rela-
lively larger with each months exhaustion Of
supplies previously imported though at that
rate only it would reach about % per cent by
January l. But the articles Of which more
than two months supply were imported in
advance are as have been shown. relatively
few, so that after this month the demand
for additional supplies may be expected to rise
faster 1t is not forgotten that imports of many
articles are discouraged by increased duties; OF
that fact the reduced importations in August
bore testimony But that retarding force will
not be greater in other months while the de-

ury and display, as all experience he's taught
are not restricted by some addition to cost, but
arc increased by returning prosperity.
The large factor in the calculation, which is
likely soon to cause disappointment to critics
Of the new tariff. Is the expansion of demand
for all sorts Of goods. imported and domestic.

the revival Of prosperity. Evidence Of this is
seen in the internal reve-'- receipts, which

10 the law and their oaths of Office They under
stand perfectly well that he referred to poiti-
clans who are, according to common rumor,
'protccting' the gamblers. And why do they
protect them:
There Is no way Of compelling Grand Jurors
to do their duty honestly and fearlessly. but t
IS both possible and desirable to unvel the
motive that prompts them to do otherwise,
and If that were done ii would be natural TO
expect public sentiment to find expression in
such a way as TO drive the gamblers and their
protectors into their holes. That has been done
before, even in Hudson County, and 1t can be
done again. The first step necessary Is an
exposure Of the conspiracy to throttle justice
and make Of it laughing stock, to the end that
q clique Of rascals might fill their pockets.
There is one body now in existence with ample
power-the power Of the State Of New-Jerscy-
to unravel and hold up to the fierce light Of
publicity all the notifications Of that conspir-
acy. That body is the Investigating Commit

too far already. and every days delay in eff
