SAN FRANCISCO, July 27.-The
tbrongs about every shipping office that
has even the remotest Alaskan relations
have by no means diminished, 1t would
seem that the only circumstance
which prevents the wholesale depopula-
tIon Of an Francisco Is the limit in the
transportation facilities. Not only
strong men whose broad backs, bronx
ed faces and work-worn hands tell of
previous experience with the labor that
literally sweats the brow, but clerks and
professional men and women In hun
dreds are seeking, some Of them for in
formation, but most OF them for trans
portatlon to the land where nuggets are
10 be had, they think, for the picking
up,
Eevry day sees some new scheme for
overcoming the difficulties In the way
OF reaching the klopdyhe and the neef
OF steamers and schooners pressed into
the service is growing steadily. The
latest of the Kiondyke transportation
Company schemes Is being engineered
by Captain HERMAN, OF the firm OF
Herman n Mills. He has been APP
preached by number of people anx-
ious to 30 TO Klondyke, and In response
to numerous requests has mapped out
plan for reaching the dlggings by the
middle OF September He will charter
u large sailing vessel and the party will
consist OF sixty men, each OF whom VIII
take one ton % provisions. No one VIII
be permitted to go unless he takes this
quantity. Each one will be charged
1925 for the trip. and Capt. Herman
thinks that for this sum he can land
them In Dawson City before September
20. The ship viii carry large lighter
and steam launch will be used TO tow
the lighter from st. Michaels TO the
Klondyke. After reaching st. Michaels
the cargo and passengers VIII be trans
ferred To the lighter. Captain Herri-
man Will return to the vessel, ana the
party will be conducted to their jour
ney's end by an agent of the firm who Is
thoroughly acquainted with the river.
The Alaska Commercial Company's
steamer Excelsior. which leaves here
to-day, will not make another trip TO
Alaska before June OF next year. All
the accommodations to be disposed or
for this trip have been sold and the fact
well advertised, but the would-be pas
sengers continue to throng the compa-
ny's office The commercial company
not only declines to sell any more tick
cts, but Its representatives do all In
their power to dissuade applicants from
undertaking the trip until next year.
Some twenty or thirty have endeavored
to secure accommodations for the first
trip next June. The company declines
TO bind Itself so far ahead. although
number OF the applicants were willing
TO put up forfeit and agree TO abide
by any terms the company might make
for the next years trip. -.---.y

BEST BILL KNOWN.
Some OF the Features OF tho Tariff Bill
Pointed Dat.


Pointed Dat.
New York Press: Appraiser William
F. Wakeman, the general secretary Of
the American Protective Tariff League,
IS immensely pleased at the passage Of
the DIngley bill. He said, at the Fifth
Avenue Hotel, last night:
ut is uuquestlonably the best tariff
bill ever passed. A few weeks ago the
talk was all cut-cut. cut things down.
Then came change in Washington
sentiment and now the measure Is es-
senttaiy protective one
ut is more a protection measure
than the Mckinley Law, because, while
the duties are not higher in this, the old
law had so many more articles on the
free list, notably hides hemp, Jute
and fax. IN this bill a great deal or
protection Is given to the southern peo-
pie and 20 agricultural products. The
increase In the duty on rice Will affect
directly more than 100000 people.
"The increased protection to Ameri-
can cotton, is good thing. In ten
sNulo Nllt lAhlbt - f@hsf
tian cotton ran from 100000 pounds'to
6O,0OO,OOO pounds. once In three years
the foreign growers would come over
here to bug, seed to plant. Then the cot
ton would be brought over to compete
in our own markets with the home pro-
duct.
AN important change in the glove
schedules will revive an industry in
this state that has been dormant for a
long time. Women's gloves are includ-
cd In the schedule now. Factories In
places like Gloversvllle and Dolgevllle.
which are almost entirely dependent on
this industry, will resume work speed
lily.
1T Is gratifying to the members OF
the tariff league to know that every I'm
portant request and every point made
by the work and Influence of the league
has been carried out In the bill, with
the single exception OF the matter OF
discretionary duties on goods carried In
American bottoms. However, the pres
eRt law rs SO worded that this matter
will be all right as soon as the treaty Is
changed"

CHICAGo-In the face of heavy llqul-
dalton wheat advanced iKe. The for
elgn situation was depicted in the
gloomlest colors and finally overbalanc-
ed the encouraging domestic outlook.
Paris led the advance abroad, closing
$1,000 centlmes higher. Corn was
strong on crop damage rumors, and
gained Ikc. Oats held steady. Provis-
ions were heavy, pork closing I'M
changed; lard and ribs 2hq5c lower.
The wheat market was whipped Up
at the opening this morning by the
small effect upon Liverpool quotations
Of yesterdays Chicago decline and 9TH
err sensational rise In prices at Paris.
Liverpool came In with a decline of only
I'D, and Paris with and advance equal
to 2lkc per bushel. Accompanying the
cablegram that conveyed the quota
lions were remarks concerning the out
look for European crops more and es-
peeiaiiy those OF France and Roumania,
which were OF rather q halr-raising
character. Gould hardly be worse"
and entire failure" are expressions
rarely required but frequently used In
crop reports from speculative sources.
although thismay posslblybe the season
that justlfes them from Europe. They
had at any rate considerable effect here
and had great deal to do with starting
September wheat at from 723s TO 7SIsc,
against 72kc, the price 1t closed at
yesterday.
Receipts at principal points were 7O6.-
900 bushels against $4,000 bushels last
year Local receipts were 26i cars, %
Of which were new wheat. Atlantic
ports cleared $4,000 bushels, wheat and
Hour. Cash wheat at Duluth was up
&c. New York reported 10000 bushels
taken In for export and 60 boatloads en-
gagged to-day.
Private advices from the northwest
were to the effect that 30 per cent dam
age had been done in certain districts
by recent heavy rains. The report OF
export business at New York was IN
creased to 100 bontloads near the close,
but confirmation was lacking, Shorts
were thoroughly stirred up, however.
and prices reached 7ic for September,

throughout. There were claims OF
drought In Kansas but In view OF tho
recent rains this feature OF the news
was doubted. The bulls made u point
of foreign demand. New York report

JERSEY CATTLE POISONED.
Health Officer Called on to Inves-
tlgate.

M C. ". Kingnan lost two valuable
registered Jersey cows on Friday night and
Sunday night he lost valuable bull, all by
death under circumstances that. to say the
least. are peculiar.
The two Jerseys were to all appearances
well aud hearty Friday evening when prt in
their stalls, but we're dead Saturday morning.
Sunday eveniog the boil was we'll and hearty
but vas found dead Monday morning.
The Health Officer was called upon 10 make
an Investigation, under the impression That
some cattle disease was the cause Of the death
of the aoimsls That officers conclusions
are that the circumstances point at presgast to
case of io.eutional poisoning, as no disease
peculiar TO animals would be likely to c.use
death IN such short space of tiae withou,
some, indication of the disease presenting
Itself in advapce. The Health Officer has
caused one of The animals. to be dissec,ed and
some of the blood and stomach taken out AID
bottled up, which he sent TO State Chemist
Hardin for analysis IF the ANALYSIS shows
symptoms of disease the Health Oh Ger will
get one of the State Veterinary Surgeons to
lpvesteate. If It should turn ous to be
poisoning and intentionally 80, the case will
be turned over to the proper authorities for
detection of the party who did it.
