CANADA AND THE KLoNDIKE.
Vow Mining Regulations TO he Considered By
tho Cabinet Monday.

OTTAWA. Ont. July 23.-Clifford sifton,
Minister Of tho Interior, made this statement to-
day with reference to the rush to the gold mines
of Yukon:
II think 1t only proper to say that any person
who ~contemplates going into tho Yukon terri
tory should make very careful inquiries as to
tho length of time 1t will tako to go and as to
the means he will have OF sustaining himself
after he gets there. Tho shortest time
within which communication has been had
with Fort Cudahy is six weeks, and
that took place under the most favorable
circumstances. The amount Of provisions that
can DO taken into that country at the present
moment is extremely limited. and II any consid-
cradle number of people go in without
making special provisions for their main
tenance this fall. there Is very likely
to DO starvation during the coming win
ter. One thing ought to be clearly understood,
the Government cannot assume any respon-
sibility whatever for getting in provisions into
that country to supply any people who may go
in there in consequence of the gold excitement
and who may find themselves short OF food. The
no means exist OF overcoming this difficulty
An Informal meeting of the Ca binet took place
to-day. at which the Klondike situation was dis
cussed. The question OF making some provision
for tho opening up OF the Yukon country was
considered. Strong representations had been
received to the effect that large quantities Of
pushed through to British territory no duty had
been paid.
It was decided to order two custom. officers
from Victoria to establish stations on the other
side Of the summit at the head Of the Lynn
Canal. Arrangements will also be made to
enable Canadian boats from Victoria to report
at Juneau and take up their loads to the head OF
the canal for transport through the passes.
The STRENGTHENING of the police force on the
frontier. the establishment and manning Of ad;
through Guardian territory between the links
in the chaii of commune tions between Ed.
mon and the Klondike were talked over, out no
action will he taken until next Mondays meet.

Twenty-eiEht Prisoners Taken TO Omaha.
TEKANAH, Neb.. July 23.-The Federal Gov.
eminent has been forced TO interfere with tho
hoboes OF Nebraska who have been holding up
trains. As n result twenty-five tramps wero
taken to Omaha and jailed tonight.
This morning 100 tramps had gathered hero
and announced that they would permit no trains
to pass through on the Omaha line unless the
company agreed to transport them to Sioux City
free. They prepared to pile rails on the track to
force trains to stop; but this was not necessary,
as tho first freight that approached from tho
south slowed up for fear of being wrecked. In o
minute the tramps swarmed over the cars,
menacing the crew and daring any one to pre-
vent their capturing the train. They at once
put a guard OF six men over the engineer, and
settled down as the train moved of. In three
hours another train camo in from the south and
another hobo band captured 1t. This train CAR
ried a mail car, and the United States authori-
ties at Omaha were notified.
At 4 O'Clock n special train with thirty depu-
ties arrived from Omaha. 1t was n great sur
prise to the tramps. They prepared to capture
the incoming train when they saw IL and sur
/, rounded the cars. The deputies poured out with
drawn revolvers. The tramps scattered every.
where and showed no fight. Each deputy pur-
sued and captured a man. Six resisted and
several drew knives, but the guns of the dcpu-
ties intimidated them, and twenty.eight prison
ers were made.
The Hon. H. Wade ellis. a local lawyer, also
was arrested on the charge Of aiding the men
In obstructinR mail trains and resisting United
States officers. 1t Is said that he had been re-
tanned by the tramps and was advising them as
to what course to pursue. The prisoners were

among the miners In West Virginia, said:
I'm our State there are % 800 coal minors and
about one.flfth of them have laid down their
picks and struck in sympathy for their brother
miners in other States. This action was caused
by a recent visit OF Debs. While he received
but little support, there were a few Of the hot
headed element who quit work. There is not
the slightest cause for complaint among the
miners OF West Virginia. They are well paid
and have but recently had their wages In

A Thief In . Connecticut Woods Attempts to
Garry on n sntchel from Her Carriage.
Mrs. James B. Howe. the wife OF Congressman
Howe. who lives at 1888 South Ninth street,
Brooklyn. is spending the summer at their coun-
try homo In North Salem, y. Y, and according
TO a story printed in the BROOKLYN Eagle yester-
day. she had an adventure with a thief while on
n drive from that place TO Greenfield. Conn. on
Wednesday.
She started upon the drive in company with
her l6-year-old son. The distance was about
twenty miles. When they had crossed the
State limo and were near the village OF Wilton.
Conn, they stopped to give their horses a rest
and strolled a short distance away from their
carriage.
They were only a short distance away when
they saw a man emerge from the woods, run up
to the carriage. and. Selling Mrs. Howe's
satChcl. start 10 run away with it.
The satchcl was said 10. have contained some
diamonds. IA large sum OF money. and a lot of
valuable papers.

Mrs. Howe and her son pursued the man,
and were within a few feet of the robbcr when
he turned quickly about, and. drawing q re-

the desperate character In "A manner that evil

match. Mrs. Howe suddenly screamed with all
her might. and the robber again threatened to
shoot.
Then he again turned about and started for
the woods. Young. Mr., Howe followed the thief
and yelled TO him that he might do some shoot
ing himself il the highwayman insisted upon
retaining the bag containing the yaluables. The
robber probably thought Mrs. Howe and the
young man were armed, and that they meant
what they said, for he hurled the grip in tho
middle of the road and then disappeared in tho
thickct.

Watched Headquarters for Iears-says Byrne
Owes Him = DOC OOO.

Owes Him $1,000 900.
A crank who has tramped up and down in
front Of Police Headquarters for years, waiting
for Byrnes to come out, so that he might kill
him. was arrested by order of Deputy Chief Cort-
right yesterday. The fellow was to all appear
ances harmless enough, but the police remem-
bered the case of Ernest Dubourque, the crazy
Frenchman who, after being let alone tWcn.-
years, developed acute mania in Fourteenth
street one afternoon when it was crowded with
women. and killing one. the wife of Policeman
Hanley. who arrested the mailman on the next
corner without knowing that he had murdered
his wife.
Byrnes has been gone two years from Null
berry street, but this crank didn't know il. He
insisted that he owed him S2,OOO.0 900. and that
he would have It or his life. Some day he might
take any one for Byrnes and wreak vengeance,
the police thought.
In the Tombs Police Court the man said that
he was John Schiller, and that he WAS married
to Mrs. Vanderbilt. He was mi for ex-
animation, and will be sent to an asylum.
