in Either Gold or Silver
Also Reported.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 19.-The house
committee on commerce voted to report
the anti.scalping bill, in the form Of a
substitute prepared by Mr.. Sherman of
New York. The substitute follows the
general lines of the original bill, with
some additional features. It places a
penalty on railroad officers who deal
with scalpers Heretofore the plan has
been to hold the corporation liable,
but the new provision extends
the liability to officials, max
ing them subject to misdemeanor
with fine or imprisonment on convic-
ton. A new paragraph is inserted in
section 2, making it unlawful for gen.
eral passenger agents to supply tickets
to other than authorized ticket agents.
Another substitute provision provides
that unused tickets shall be redeemed
at any time within one year. Any
company failing to redeem a ticket is
made liable in civil action to PEN
atty Of 800 in excess of the redemp-
ton money on the ticket.

THE MOTHERHOOD
It's Reported Discovery Confirmed
by Passengers just From
Dawson.
Corona Brought Drafts and Dust
to the Amount Of q
Million.
Winter Output Estimated at
From Twelve to Fifteen
Million Dollars.

SEATTLE, Wash, Jan. 19.-Twenty.
two persons arrived here from Dawson
City on the steamer Corona, bringing
with them small amount Of gold dust
and drafts on the North American
Trading and Transportation company
and the Alaska Commercial company,
amounting to between $900,0 and
81, 900, 900. In the party was one
woman. She is the second woman to
come out this winter.
The amount of drafts brought down
represents the proceeds of sales OF
claims to the Cudahy- Healy Yukon and
Klondike Mining company and private
parties.
The news brought by the treasure
laden miners who have arrived from
the Klondike on the steamer Corona,
is important chiefly that it is confrma-
tory of the discovery of the great
mother lode. Welch, Coffin and Burt
are authority for the statement that
the original strike was made at the up.
per end of claim No. 80, Ell Dorado,
while two stringers, one at No. ~, and
another yet lower down, were subse-
quently located. Throughout the dis
trict the discovery is accepted as as
surance Of the permanehcy of the dis
trict as rich gold mining field. AS to
the placer diggings, they continue rich.
Powder creek, an aff1uent of Quartz
creek, has been having boom, pans OF
$3.75 and 81 being a common thing. OF
course the stream was located as soon
as the first important discovery was
made. All Gold creek shows pans of
$40 to 500, while the miners on Hunker
creek, Henderson, Dominion, the Big
Salmon and the Stewart all declare
themselves satisfied with the prospect.
One Of the first men to stake ground
on Ell Dorado, and the very last man
out of the Klondike country, is Andrew
Olsen, known as "the Big Swede. He
is notable as being the owner Of the
claim on which the biggest Klondike
nugget has yet been found. The lump
of gold was valued at 1856.
Replying to a request for an estimate
of the winters gold dust output of the
camp, Joe Campbell, one Of the return
ing miners, said:
"We have done great deal of figur-
ing on that and it now appears that the
output, Notwithstanding the scarcity Of
food and light, will be from $I2, 1000, 900
to $15, 900, 900. DIR. II. III. Littlefeld of
Skaguay came on the Corona. He has
just closed contract with the Can
adian government to pack provisions to
Lake Bennett for % cents pound.
L. L. Grady, formerly banker of
Fairfax, Mimi, paid 5000 for the priv
ilege of walking from Dawson behind a
brisk dog team
Murat Anderson, an elderly gentle
man of St. Louis, made the trip after
much the same fashion.
In reference to the food situation at
Dawson, the arrivals corroborate pre-
vious reports that while food is scarce,
there will be no starvation. They con-
slider that it will be impossible to get
relief expedition in at this season of
the year.

IRVINGTON TELEPHONES.
The New Company Asks for Fran
chise-Street-CRr Loop.

The New Telephone Company is reaching
out toward Irvington. Last night the COM
pany petitioned the Irvington Town Board
for a franchise to erect poles and stretch
wires in the Irvington streets. Final ac-
ton was not taken on the petition, which
was in the form of a letter from S. p
Sheerin to the president Of the Town Board
A few months ago Irvington citizens made
a strong effort to obtain satisfactory rates
from the Central Union Telephone Com
pany, but without success. A toll line is
maintained in Irvington, with charge Of
10 cents for connection with Indianapolis.
The main reason an agreement could not
be made with the Central Union Company
was that the company refused to cut down
the rate for connection with Indianapolis
Connection with Indianapolis was the OBJ
ject of the Irvington citizens efforts, so
further dealings with the Central Union
were discontinued Arlington citizens will
welcome any telephone company which of
fers reasonable rates for connection with
the city.
A second petition of general interest in
the suburb was in letter to the president
of the Town Board from the Citizens
Street-railway Company, asking that the
board cooperate with the company in an
effort to build loop. Several influential
citizens have been agitating the question
of a loop and the Street-car Company Just
now seems in favorable mood The pro-
posed loop will extend from Central ave-
nue. and the Pennsylvania Railroad tracks
the present terminus of the line, directly
west to Ritter avenue and thence north on
Ritter avenue to Washington street hence
west to Indianapolis. The proposed plan
will necessitate the opening of a street
from Ritter avenue to Central avenue. Citi-
zenS owning ground along this section OF
the town have sgnified a willingness to
donate strip extending the length of the
loop and 1t is highly probable the loop
will be constructed. The Town Board how
ever is inclined to demand of the Street.
car Company that it lay double track
from Ritter avenue east to Walnut street
on Washington street. A resolution was
passed last night setting apart next Satur-
day night for a special meeting to clean
up the street-car loop question.
