Action Which Will Divide Their Alaska
Business Not Desired.
SAN FRANCISCO, July 27.-The Pacific
coast steamship people are much exer.
cised over the action of the treasury de-
partment in making Dyea a SUPPORT Of
entry, which they claim was done at
the request Of the Canadian Pacific
Navigation company through the do
minion government. The Canadian
Pacific company operates line Of
steamers between Victoria and Juneau,
and asked to have United States Gus
toms officers placed Oh board their
boats, which they wanted to run
through to Dyea direct. These officers
were to collect duties and thus obviate
the necessity of landing cargoes at Ju-
neau. The treasury department went
even further, and made Dyea a SUBJ
port of entry. The local steamship
companies say this will turn gold hun
ters from the east to the Canadian route
to the injury of the local lines.

l;EGGING FOR PASSAGE.

Gtea, asllip Companies Unable to Accom-
motlate the Rush to the New Eltlorado.
SAN FRANCISCO, July 27.-The desire
of the gold-struck throng to reach the
diggings in the Klondyke district re-
sembles for all the world the craze of
the Westerners to reach California in
"the days of old and land of gold. "
There is it1e or no method in this long
ing Of the masses to reach the Eldorado
in the great unknown territory of the
Northwest.
People who have had no experience in
mining, or have undergone none of the
hardships incident to such a journey
as will follow trip to the Yukon coun-
try are clamoring for passage and strain
ing every nerve to secure funds neces'
sary Oh which to make the trip. Many
are making sacrifices in order to visit
the land that promises so much. Every
steamship office in this city is
Literally Overrun With People
seeking information concerning the
Klondyke country. Those who have the
money do not hesitate to pay for the
passage, trusting, in many instances, to
good luck to give them food on which
to subsist the coming winter. The Ex.
celsior, which leaves on Wednesday
next, has full passenger list, but big
bonuses are being offered every day fo1
a berth in the vessel. The steamer Unl.
atilla left during the morning with 20O
passengers and a full cargo of provis.
ions. She goes to Port Townsend, where
she connects with the City Of Topeka,
sailing direct to juneau. The Topeka,
which is scheduled to leave Seattle early
next week, has already more passengers
than is permitted by law. The same is
true of the George w. Elder, which is
scheduled to leave July 30. The people
at Seattle are

The steamer Cleveland, chartered as an

of her passenger list from this city is
booked for Alaska and she will be full

gers.
More people are anxious to go te

that the vessels now fitting at Sar

AN INSURANCE INVESTIGATION

Movement on Foot to Look Into the Con-

Topeka, Kan, July 27.-A movement
is on foot among the insurance superin-
tendents Of the western states to Join
hands in wholesale investigation of
the financial condition of the various
Eastern fire and life insurance COM
panies. 1t is said that already things
have progressed to such point that an
investigation is assured. Superinten.

SOMEWHAT INCONSISTENT,

The Provo Uon,an has the fol,
lowing to say of the Yuma bull
fight which is merittcd, every word;
"Thls world is filed with hypo-
critical inconsistencies. In Arr
xona, for instance, Corbett and
Fitzsimmons would not be permit
ted TO enter into contest to deter
mine which Of them possessed the
greater physical strength and en-
duranco, and skill in the matter OF
giving and avoiding blows. They
are both men of average intel
Iigence LIN fact if they were be-
fore a court Of Justice to be sem
fenced for petty larceny they would
most likely be told by His Honor
that they were above the average
man in inteligcnce--but in Ari-
IONA they would be prevented by
law from hurting themselves in q
fstic encounter, rot only on the
ground that they might injure each
other, but because Of tho degraded
example Of barbaric cruelty that
would be presented before the peo'
pie.
But in Yuma, last Sunday even
ing, an entertainment was given Of
which tho press dispatches says;
sIa Grand Fiesta dc Yuma

feature OF the show which drew
the crowds was the Spanish bull

cent black bull, Porfiero Diaz,
proved himself almost invincible,
and before he was dispatched in
the third fight in which he was
used, he caught captain Garcia up
on his long, slender horns and rip
ped open the mans jaw. Capt.
Garcia's wound may prove fatal,
After goring and badly mutilat-
ing Garcia the bull, stung TO frency
by the torments of torreadors and
picadors, charged full at the bull
pen and though il was strongly
built, after several desperate at
tempts he smashed into kindling
wood q panel of the pen and charg,
ed into the grounds surrounding
the amphitheater, which was filled
with people. Many were injured
The roulette table, stacked with
gold and silver coins, was tossed
high in the air and the money scat
tered in the dust. Straight through
the crowd the enraged animal sped
out into the main street of Yuma
but fortunately no people were il
the way. After a long chase ant
and hard work the bull was re
turned"
