kIondiLe Matters.
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 13.-Col. o. V. Davis OF
Spokane has just received n letter dated "Daw-
son. June L. from James Parker, a veteran OF
the civil war, who served under him in the
Seventeenth Illinois Cavalry, which gives an
excellent idea of Klondike and of the sudden
changes from poverty to fortune. Parker writes:
"One year ago last May I landed in the Yukon
with only 81. l went to work at my trade at $15
q day and bought my own chuck, the same as
army rations, which cost me $5 a day. Finally
/ got the mining fever and went to the klondike.
Say. Colonel. my army marches were
luxury compared with the trip over the
mountains, sleeping standing up to your
knees in water. l saw many poor fellows
sick. %footsorc. and hungry with Utmost
despair written on their faces. which reminded
me Of our army life. but thoughts of the future,
IL successful, had u tendency to brace me up. I
helped bury five or six who became down.
hearted with hardships and gave up.
You remember our march from Pilot Knob
to Helena, Ark, when we were out Of rations
for fifteen days, had to sleep in swamps, with
snakes and swamp flies pccking at you.
1t was nothing compared with the lulu birds
you encounter here. Why. they will stick
their bills clean through your leather mittcns
and will pull your breechcs off. if they have a
inRs on our faces and protect our bodies as we'll
as we can.
Awful cold. Ihavc seen 1t Cos and 7O0 below.
All you have to do is to keep your hands and
feet warm. and the rest Of your body will take
care Of itself. ] did not have a dollar when !
landed at Klondikc. | have now in gold dust
and nuggets 500. 900. and have taken from one
pan from $75 TO $l2O. l have a claim that Is
good for much more.
Now, old comrade. If you want to make a
fortune, come. I will see you through the
winter and put you on as good a claim as I have.
i know OF locations which IL you were here you
could get big money, out Of, DC not delay.
Come to Dyea and remain till you hear from
me. / will advise you to come this fall 80 as to
be in the diggings early in the spring"

800 TO SIS.
OTTAWA. Aug. 13.-The Cabinet Ministers al
the last Council meeting held this week dis
cussed chiefly the all-absorbing topic Of the gold
country administration As has been announced.
the Minister of the Interior offered the place of
administrator of the district to Major Walsh,
late of the Northwest mounted police, an officer
possessing valuable frontier experience. Major
Walsh having accepted the place. the Council
passed an order confirming the appointment.
There were some important changes in the min
ing regulations to be dealt with. Protests have
been pouring in against the cxorbitant royalty
imposed by the new regulations, but II was de-
cided, for the present. to disregard all such pro-
tests, and await the Gold Commissioners re-
port on its practicability. The change from 500
TO 100 feet frontage in creek claims was con-
firmed. and in view of this reduction 1t was also
decided to reduce the annual renewal fee from
800 to SIS.
Major Walsh will start for the Yukon in
about three weeks. The new regulations, as
Yukon at once. and with them will go the ad-
vance guard of the men who are to carry the
law into effect. 1t is expected that the tele-
graph line from the head of the Lynn Canal to
the Klondikc can be built before the winter sets
in, and. in addition to the communication thus
established with the interior. there will DO
monthly dog trains going through from the Pa
cific coast. II is stated upon good authority
that the Government Is prepared to spend $3.50.
600 this year in the development Of the gold
country. the population of which is anticipated
by next spring to exceed 10000.

the Hest or the New Fields.
CITY OF MEXICO, Aug. 13.-If expressions of
opinion from gold.mine operators in this rcpub-
lie are any criterion Mexico, too, is u Klondike.
A representative Of the American Mining Com
pany at FL Orc said to-day:
"When ]. b.. Haggin bought out the large
interest in the Frisbie mines at FL Orc. on &C.
count OF pending lawsuit, he changed the name
to the American Mining Company. 1t is a close
corporation. The mine is turning out ore in
abundance and exceptional rich at that. The
mills turn out about $50, 900 Il month in gold and
the retreatment by the cyanide process yields 25
per cent. additional. There is a twenty-five
stamp mill, but the company is preparing to put
in a new mill for the treatment Of ores by the
cyanide process, which will probably be the big
gest mill in Mexico. 1t will treat low-gradc ores
also, and ST. ore Will be treated instead of the
present average of $50 ore"
Dudley \. Norris of Gicanacevi, in Durango,
was next interviewed. He is in charge of the
plant of the Anita Mining Company of New
York. of which the President is Joseph Nc
Donough of San Francisco. Mr.. Norris has n
ten stamp on the property, which began to be
operated on July l. Since then the shipments
in high grade ores. and concentrates have
shipped $1,000 worth OF ore showing five ounces
of gold and twenty-five ounces of silver. and on
Aug. 3 another exceptionally fine shipment was
made of concentrates from purchased ores. show.
ing three ounces Of gold and thirty-six ounces
of silver. At about the same time concentrates
from the principal showed 6lo ounces of gold
and l41 ounces of silver.
Mr.. Norris says that the Guanaccvi has big
promises of out ut in the way OF gold. and all
the stories about the klondike and Peruvian
gold fields do not bother him in the least.
He says Mexico has AS much gold as can be
taken care OF for many years to come.

Seven Days from Toronto.
QUEBEC, Aug. ia novel scheme is proposed
for an all Canadian route to the Klondike
from finding their way to American territory,
and to enable the people of eastern Canada to
compete with the Pacific coast for the trade of
the Yukon mining region. The proposal is
simply for Il railway to Moose Factory at tho
foot OF James Bay and n line of steamboats,
thence to the western end of Chesterfield Inlet,
n distance of 1900 miles. The balance of the
journey would be mainly by the Mackenzie and
Yukon rivers, and 1t is estimated that in sum
mer 1t could all be made in seven days from
Toronto.
The late managing owner of n line of steamers
on the great lakes has examined the reports as
to tho waterways through Great Slave Lake and
the Mackenzie and Yukon rivers. and offers To

cal, would develop "a speed of twenty miles an
hour in slack water. 4 model OF an ice boat has

IN Exciting Collision.
FULTON, Ill, Aug. 13.-This town was a scene
Of wild excitement tonight. Rock Island Wood
men. nothing daunted by February's bold but
unsuccessful attempt to steal tho books Of Head
Clerk Halves In the Office OF the Modern Wood
men OF America, made another effort tonight.
They arrived here nearly 500 strong with a
special train OF three coaches, a baggage and
two box cars. Fulton was forewarned and n
vigorous alarm Of fire and call for help brought
out the volunteers Of Fulton. Hundreds OF
Woodmen and citizens rallied to ropel the
islandees.
Hose was laid and when the train arrived over
the T., b. and Q. at $3.50 p. NJ. the track was
torn up In front and at the rear, to prevent their
escape. The cutting Of q limo OF hose by q Rock
Islander precipitated q bloody riot. Many shots
were Hired. Clubs, rocks, and missiles OF all
kinds were used and many persons were In
jured.
The Rock Islanders secured a few books before
they were stopped. but they are now penned In
tho train by armed deputies. Head Attorney
johnson of the Modern woodmen, eer
Mitchell OF the special train, and a number OF
others are under arrest.
Tho Rock Island crowd say they have q de-
cision from the Court justifying their action.
The end cannot be foretold at this time. 1t Is
hoped that further bloodshed may be averted.
The fact OF the matter appears to BIO that Rock
Islanders believed they could fight better with
the head clerks Office in their possession, and
decided to come hero and seize 1t.
Another train load Of Rock Islanders is re.
ported en- route here. but il such ia the case the
train will be held by the railway company out.

Fuller and one or two of the Rock Island con-
tingent.

CHICAGO STUDENTS IN LUCK.

Their Party or Scientific Collectors Never Even
Saw The Mexico.
TACOMA. WASH. Aug. l3.-Scientifc men have
wasted q lot OF unnecessary sympathy on the
Field Museums Alaska anthropologi
cal expedition. 1t was believed the expedition
started to return by the steamer Mexico that was
wrecked at Dixon's Pass, but such is not the
case. The expedition has returned safe and
sound with the greatest anthropological collec-
ton ever gathered on the Pacific coast.
The LENDERS OF the expedition. D. A.
Dorsey. f. p. Allen, and James Deans. came
back by the steamer Islander, and were very
much surprised to find that tho scientific men
OF the country were mourning over the loss Of
their seasons collections.
Mr.. Dorsey is assistant curator OF tho new
Field Columbian Museum of Chicago, and he
went north three months ago to make an OK
haustiye collection for the department OF an
thrOpOlogy.
Messrs. Dean and Allen were his assistants,
and their speciality was the Hydah and Tsimo.
sian races. They secured II rich collection of
is t~wenty-three cases OF bones. photographs, and
relics. all Of which have been sont to Chicago.
The Field Museum expedition lost no instru-
msnts or notes and Mr.. Dean has everything.
Ihe chicago party never saw the steamer
Mexico and not until Mr.. Dorsey and
Mr.. Allen arrived on Puget Sound to.
day. on their way to the East, did they
from New York, had lost all their instruments
and data. aboard the Mexico, and that the SINH
Inrity OF names caused the error. The New

FIRES IN
why There Are Not More OF Them-The Bakers

The number OF fires in n year in this city does
not vary greatly, but keeps pace pretty steadily
with the growth of population. Since 1891 the
number of. fires has never been less in a year
than 5000 and never more than 400. 1t
varies between the two, and it may be said. APP
proximately, that there are 4.ooO fires u year
here, though tho great majority Of them, of
course, are very small and entail only trifing
damage.
The danger from fire in bakeries would be
considerable, one might suppose, for not only are
the ovens constantly heated. but fuel is stored in
the easements or cellars, and there is much wood.
work to ignite. Notwithstanding this and not.
withstanding the menace of fat which boils
over" n frequent cause Of ignition where there
is much heat, fires in bakeries In New York are
few. and the dangers arising from them have
been SO much diminished that they now require
but little attention from tiremen. The cxpIana-
tiOn is found in what is called the Bakers law,
adopted by the Legislature in 1895. which pro-
yides that easements. or other parts OF tenement
yolvinR the boiling of fat, shall have floors Of
brick, concrete. cement. stone. or other non
ySniSasaaG's or skirting shall hal S Se sliiow seGa ON the
walls. partitions. or ceilings: and the ceilings,
where there are only wooden joints, must be
fastened with clips and "dovetail.grooved or
channelled and plastered with tirst-class CO.
ment.'
Tho doors must be ofsheet, corrugated or plain
iron; or OF wood in two thicknesscs. the joints
OF each thickness to he at right angles to those
Of the other and sheashed all round, including
or wood shcathed with tin. When iron columns
are used for the support OF either walls or floors,
they must be cased with at least two inches OF
fireproof material and cement plaster. All
wooden glrders and posts in bakeries must be
coyed with terra Gotta, and the beams must be
intsrior %dos AND mdrk cement IN En- PIlsstersd. Al, the
with, approved flreproofng material, and no
dunlbwaiters or communicating shaft Is per.
mitted IN any room used as a bakery. or in which
fat ID boiled. All bakeries must he cut off from
other rooms, halls, and stairway by ~hreproof
partitions, without any doors. windows, or other
openings. and be constructed OF either brick,
terra Gotta. Iron studding, wire lathing, or ce.
ment plastering, or TWO or more of them In com.
binution.
AS may be inferred from the statement of all
these precautions, the danger of a serious fire
communicative to other rooms or buildings from
bakeries In New York Is very small. and the on.
f3rcement of these regulations devolves upon
the Fire Department, with the cooperation of
tho Department of Buildings.
More dangerous than fires In bakeries are
those, In stables; these. II not quenched at once,
entail usually large losses. The precautions
against fires In sta bles, however. arc less effec-
tual than those against fires in bakeries.
