United States revenue cutter Bear has
sailed from this port, carrying succoI
to the whaling fleet imprisoned in the
icy fastness Of the Arctic ocean on the
northern shore Of Alaska, between
Point Barrow and Herschell islands.
The Bear will make a short stop at

from there over the ice to FONT Rod

island lies in the fact that it is on the
lee OF Point Rodney which sweeps off
the ice carried down by the north wind,
making a sheltered stretch of water.
From Sledge island the party must pro-
ceed overland to Point Barrow and un-
der the leadership of Lieutenant Jarvis
will cross over to Point Rodney. From
there the party win go to Point Clar-

The start proper win be made there.

THE VIEWS OF BRADY
Governor Tells What Legisla-
ton Is Needed For Alaska.
WANTS A COMMISSION APPOINTED.
A Representative Body to Thoroughly
Consider Laws For the Government
OF the Northern Territory -smug-
Cling Evil Must Be Checked.

SEATTLE, Wash, Nov. 29.-In an
interview, Governor John G. Brady of
Alaska says:
"The business men and officials OF
Alaska are concerned affecting some
change or amplification of the laws as
they are at present in force.
"They will combine TO submit to con-
gress a proposition to authorize the
appointment Of a committee which Will
consider the needs Of Alaska on the
ground. My idea is that the committee
should consist Of q senator, a represent
ative and three bona fide residents Of
Alaska. If we are able to get a com
mission, something may be accomplish
ed for the practical good OF Alaska
Otherwise time devoted to Alaska will
be frittered away in the consideration
of Individual bills OF no benefit to the
country as whole. Many think Alas
ka should have a territorial form Of
government. The objections to this are
manifold. chief among them being the
sparse population of the country. A
territory means taxation, and the peo-
pie are not there to be taxed. 1t would
be Of little avail to submit to congress
resolutions for q change in the code
now in existence. These things must
be investigated by committee which
can ascertain the needs of the people
by personal observation. We want an
extension of the land laws, the status
OF the natives declared, the regulation
of the fish industry, the right of appeal
and laws for the preserva ton Of game.
THE smuggling evils must also be
dealt with by the committee. Last
year p 900 gallons of Canadian whisky
We're smuggled into Alaska"
Governor Brady thinks that Alaska
will be as great an agricultural and
farming country some day as q mining
one
Governor Brady's trip to this city is
on private business. He win not go on
10 Washington to attend the coming
session of congress, as has been re-
ported.

THE DREyFus CASE AGAIN.
Sensation Caused In Paris by Publication
of Esterhazy's Letters.

PARIS Nov. 29.-The Figaro has
caused a sensation Ia connection with
the Dreyfus affair by publishing sew
eral letters purporting to be written by
Count Ferdinand Walsin Esterhazy,
who has been accused by NJ. Scheurer
Kestner. one OF the vice presidents Of
the senate. OF being the author Of the
unsigned letter which led to the con-
demnation Of Dreyfus.
In one OF them, after expressing his
intention TO enter the Turkish service
Count Esterhazy is represented as say
ins, 4 shall not leave without having
played a trick Of my own on those
amiable Frenchmen,"
Other passages illustrating the char
acter OF the letters follow:
"Our cowardly and ignorant great
chiefs viii go once more TO people Ger
man prisons"
II should be perfectly happy If were
told I was to be killed tomorrow as a
captain Of uhlans sabering French
men"
Il am capable OF great things or
crimes, II that could avenge me. ]
would not harm q little dog, but
would have a hundred thousand French
men killed with pleasure.
Count Esterhazy proceeds 70 say
that "Frenchmen are not worthy OF the
cartridges intended to kill them" and
he conjures up a dream of festivity
in the shape OF the pillage Of Paris by
100000 drunken soldiers.
Interviewed by reporters as to the
publications in The Figaro Of letters
purporting to be of mis- authorship
Count Esterhazy displayed great indig-
nation and declared that they We're
forged by the friends Of Dreyfus who
he said, had taken words and sentences
from his letters and placed them to-
gether by a process with which he was
acquainted. He said also that he had
been warned some days back that such
a publication would be made.
LIE Jour doubts the authenticity ol
the letters. Shortly after Figaro ap-
pcared Count Esterhazy visited Gen
eral Pelieux, who was appointed by
General Sausser the military governor
Of Paris, TO conduct the Investigation
OF the charges which have been brought
against him. and protested against
what he alleges Is a fresh calumny."
4 semiohicial note says that Genera
Pellieuxs investigation was almost fin
lshed, but that he win now examine
into the authenticity Of these letters
that he will act with absolute impair
tiality and see to IL that satisfaction Is
given to the honor of the army, to JUS
ticc and truth.
