WASHINGTON, Dec. o7.-Capt. Brainard Of the
Commissary Generals Department, who is in
Chicago arranging to secure provisions to be
sent to the starving miners, has decided against
THO use OF concentrated foods. This self. ex-
planatory telegram from him was received by
Secretary Alger to-day:
II believe the nutritive value claimed for
condensed food somewhat exaggerated; be-
sides these foods are difficult to pack, and tin
packages add greatly to the weight. l deem
the most satisfactory food for Alaska to be
bacon. flour, beans, peas, rice, sugar, coffee,
tea, chocolate, the necessary condiments and a
small quantity of butter and condensed milk.
These articles possess proper nutrition, are
easy to pack, and, except butter and milk, have
no extra weight for packages"

A Plan TO Relieve tho ConGestien in the East

1t was learned yesterday that the officers of
the Baron de Hirsch Fund. who have been try
ing for some time to get several thousand He
brcws to leave the congested east side. are en-
deavoring to secure the cooperation of Meyer
Schocnfeld in II colonization project. Schoen-
field has been approached informally on the
subject, and is inclined to favor the. plan.
1t is proposed to purchase n tract Of land at
some distance from Tho metropolitan district
on which to found a colony of Hebrews from
the east side, and thus to relieve the congestion
in that part of the city. Several attempts hayo
been made to get the Hebrew clothing workers
to leave the tcnements and form colonies out
side of New York. but they have been fail
urcs. 1t Is thought that with Schoenfeld's
assistance the colonization plan can be carried
out.
Schoenfeld snid Yesterday that he was will
support We're guaranteed TO the members OF the
colony in order that they might have time to
start diifercn, trades. They knew nothing OF
farming or anything but tailoring;
II could guarantee to get at least 5000 to

are 10000 altogether. counting the cloak

many reasons why Hebrew immigrants stay in

New York is the centre. Another is that the
Sunday law Is not enforced against the Ortho-
doX Hebrews here. so that here they work on
sunday and keep the Hebrew Sabbath on Satur-
day, while in other large cities the Sunday law
Is enforced against all alike For these rea-
sons the east side has become more and more
