NORTHERN GOLD HUNTERS.
The Temperature Gave Them Longer
 Lease of Life.

Skaguay, Alaska, Oct 27.-(Special Correspondence Associated Press via Seattle, Wash, Nov. 3.)-The weather at Lakes Bennett and Linderman lately has been exceedingly fine Fol lowing the cold snap at the beginning of the month, when the mercury fell below the, freezing point, came a mild cir term and the coldest weather re- corded since has been eight degrees above zero. The lakes were still open on Saturday last and few pel- pie were still leaving for Dawson City, although it is probable that those leaving Lake Bennett af CT this date will not get further down than Lake Tagish.
 The Skaguay trail is comparatively clear. although considerable packing is still being done between Skaguay and the summit. A good many of the argonauts are still making tbeir way over Chilcoot pass, packing their own outfits. Reports of narrow escapes from being frozen to death on Chilcoot summit come in from time to time, but as yet no fatality has been re- ported.

London, Nov. 3.-The elections in the United States continue to overshadow all other news in the English news papers. The Sun of this city says: l" The dog has returned to his vomit' is the text we recommend to pious New York to hang on her parlor walls. The chief city of the great people must see it's municipal offices filled with men who should be filling cells in the penitentiary. New York has fallen like rotten fruit into the hands of boodlers, but New Workers may console themselves with knowing that every city of every land has the go- ernment it deserves"
 The Evening News remarks: "Croker has brought off his tip and has won the race, showing that he is more to be feared in his natural arena of politics than on the race course. The population of the second great est city in the world has elected it's ruler and the morning-after-elect problems occupying his mind did not relate to the government of the city, but to the squaring of his supporters. The experiment of democracy as seen in full growth in New York seems to have it's drawbacks as we'll as it's ad- vantages."
 The St. James Gazette says: ''The reason Americans allow themselves to be dominated by clique whose men- bers would on this side of the At lantic sooner or later find themselves in the criminal dock is that American politicians indulge in politics solely for what they can make out of them and until America finds time to produce class which will give its time to pub lie affairs without expectation of pe- cuniary reward, Tammany will con- tinue it's victories in New York;"
 Commenting on the allegation that the "best classes held aloof from par ties," the Globe says: "It leaves the countries in the world at the mercy of mob and an interruptions dema- gogue who knows how to bend that mob to his will.''i
 The Pall Mall Gazette says: "Such an organization as Tammany could not exist in London. A man or orga- nization once proven guilty of cor ruption could never return to power. Tammany, under the leadership of Croker, has done so in a manner which has just offered food for seri- ous thoughts even in city so accus- toned to bad government as New York. As much as we wish the best fortune to Greater New York, we cannot congratulate it's citizens on the manner in which they have con- tributed their share toward the achievement of such an undesirable result"
 The Westminster Gazette, in its ] comments on the same subject, re- marks: ''The victory of the unprin- cipled government obtained by un- principled methods is a grave disap- pointment to all believing in free in stitutions.'

 DEPLORES IRISH SUPREMACY.
 Berlin, Nov. 3.-The Tageblatt, com menting on the New York election, de- plores the victory of Tammany, "as it places the undesirable element of the Irish on top," and concludes: ''The victory in New York will have sin ister effect throughout the world, for it means that the awakening desire of municipal reform has received a ter rife setback"
 The Vossiche Zeitung says: ''It can not be denied that corruption has tri- umphed.''
 The Lokal Anzeiger asserts that it sympathized with all honest people on the side of Tammany's adver- saries''
 The National Zeitung says: "It is a small wonder that the republicans were defeated. Georges adhererts evidently flocked to the Tammany ban ner. The failure to defeat Tam many is a point scored against the Washington administration" INCAPACITY OF HONESTY.
 Paris, Nov. 3.-The Temps, com menting on the election, says: ''The result of the election is deplorable for New York and the cause of democ- racy'
 The Journal Des Debats says: "Once again is displayed the inca pacity of the honest citizens of New York to organize and shake off the dominion of political intriguers who exploit and dishonor municipal pol itics."
