CANADA SHOULD CONTROL.
Engishmen Ssem to Fear That
British Officers VIII Be De-
posed In the KlOndike.

NEW YORK, N. Y. Aug. 21.-The
Journals London special says: The
Marquis of Lorne in signed statement
to the Journal, expresses confidence Ill
The ability of the Canadian Government
to retain its supremacy in the gold fields
and maintain its hold upon the Klondike
req 1n.
Al the same time there is no denying
that the feeling of uneasiness begins to be
felt in London over the probability of a
conflict between the Canadian American
interests there. England feels that Can
ada should control the Klondike and they
would support Canada in any restrictions
she may propose on American enterprise,
no matter how severe they may be.
The opinion is commonly expressed
that the Canadians should do precisely
what the Beers did at Johannesburg
hold the mines and tax the Uitlanders, as
this would give the Americans ample JUS
iification for the Jameson raid.
The apparent weakness of Canada in the
remote diggings is felt, as we'll as the
necessity of reaching them through
American territory.
Engiisnmen admit that t. e Klondika is
now controlled by Americans, but these
men are described in the papers here as
plunderers, ruffians and outlaws.
Some express fears that the Canadian
customs officers collecting taxes at Skag-
uay Will be wiped out bv Americans and
that the few Canadian officers at Dawso n
City will be laughed at and de6ed, and
that he stars and stripes will be raised by
q m ID over the Klondlk, region.
In that event sufficient force will be
sent to the diggings, for England wants
the gold and hates 10 see it get away to
the United States. Any trifling conflict
or bloodshed between Americans and
Canadian officers would at once raise most
serious international complications.
Many Englisnmen fear the proximity
of the Klondike TO the Alaskan boundary,
and that the sensational wealth of
the miners and the mad rush now being
made will end in war between England
and the United States.
One London paper has already an
nouncsd that American politicians and
journalists are now scheming 10 bring on
war through the Klondike craze, with q
view to annexing Canada. and warns its
TedueIS ~ U- picpalSo iOi NlOiSut cAuiUi-
tions of ill-feeling.
Shrewd observers here, however. say
that England would put up with slmost
anything rather than incur the risk OF
such a conflict, with the inevitable loss OF
all Canada.
London SPECTATORS are looking envi-
ously toward the Klondike, but think
Wall street will have the first picking and
England will get what is left. keverthe-
less, many Klondike schemes are being
floated here, and the newspapers are
printing full accounts of the new dig
gings.

OTTAWA, ONT, Aug. 21.-Questions
are daily received here about the Mac

King of the Dominion Bureau OF Surveys
says this route will be impracticab-e at
this season of the year. 1t might be pos

The best route to be followed is the Hud-

road 10 Atha baska Landing and steamer
down the Athabaska, Slave and Macken-

small boats. The Hudson Bay Company
stores its goods during the winter at Nc
Pherson and hauls them by dog train
across the mountains to La Fierres

Porcupine, the east branch of the Y ukon

Il is a familiar contention among

story. Among Or. Hamllns friends
and substantial helpers was phila-

not be recalled by the doctor. who was
then in Turkey. Every incident con
nected with their interviews. even to
the street and number of the house in
which his 5enefactor had lived was

his life he could not think Of the gen

he returned to his native land on a

question which had been puzzlng him
so long. He visited the house. but
found only strangers, who could tell
him nothing OF the people who had

with great impresslveness: Gentle
