Writing from Dawson City under date OF
August 4th, Consul McCook says some sue
cinct and savage things about the klon-
dixie country: Prices of provisions are %
per cent higher than they were last year.
Lodging is hardly to be had at any price.
Outsiders cannot realize these conditions.
Destitution and starvation are imminent to
many who cannot get away. No one should
come here without a couple of thousand
dollars and provisions for two years. The
output Of gold has been exaggerated five
fold"

An example OF the figure tbs United
States cuts in the merchant marine OF
the world is shown by the business state
ment of the Suez canal. For the past
fiscal year 1892 ships passed through the
canal. Of which only four were Ameri-
can. Spain beat that record in number
of vessels, when Camara's fleet passed
through and then passed back again.

Now we hear Of another source OF n
come dertvable from the Alaska pur-
chase. The Aleutfan islands are said
to offer rich pasturage, where vast herds
Of cattle might be maintained. The
United States Is making a speciality OF
islands now, and we should not lose sight
of thnse we already have In stock.

Cases Of insanity are not fnfrequent
In Los Angeles, but just at the moment
Of writing we do not recall any that re-
suited from overwhelming prosperity.
Such a case we hear Of from Topeka. A
Chicago man suddenly became violently
insane, In the Kansas town, and his
brother, who responded to a summons.
attributed the mental upset to excite
ment over large profits recently made In
business transactions" The moral, OF
course Is obvious.

Illinois is still agitated about the liquid
that shall be used in christening the bat
t,eship that Is to bear the states name
A canvass of Chicago clergymen has
been made for expression of views on the
subject, with the surprising result that
the ministers generally express pref
erence for wine or else manifest in
difference. And now the temperance
people retort by saying this is because
the ministers use wine In the churches

Pasadena is looking for man who is
immune from social obloquy to act as
official dog catcher. No person in the
crown c,ty can be found to take the Job,
and so search is being made In Los An

fellows is pruba bly, not 90 much the ques-

When young Letter was ballooning
wheat he claimed that he was greatly
benefiMng the farmers by advancing
evidence that he was at least measurably
correct. Kansas. for instance. claims
to be In better financial condition than
ever before. although farmers In some
sections Of the state were abandoning
their homes only three years ago. There
is vast difference between fifty cent
and dollar wheat.

The International Commission

Quebec, August 24-No meeting Of
the joint arbitration commissions was
held today. Both the American and
the Canadian commissioners are at
work on plans for procedure and will
compare notes and decide upon a plan
at the joint meeting tomorrow One
point, however, has been determined
Nothing in detail of the commissions S
work will be given to the press until
after its work is finished This has
been agreed upon by both sides. The
reason for this is to prevent as far as
possible the demands for hearings be-
fore the commission. Sir Wifrid
Laurier and Senator Fairbanks have
both stated that it would be impos-
sible for the commission to grant gen
eral hearings.
Sir James Winter, the representa-
tive from New Foundlard arrived al
noon and will be present at the joint
session tomorrow. Tonight Sir Will
frid Laurier gave a dinner to the COM
missioners at the garrison club, and in
all the speeches was expressed the SEN
timent that the work of the commits
sion would be carried out in a most
amicable way and that the results
would be of lasting benefit TO the two
great nations.
Yesterday a rumor was going about
here that the conference would at meet.
; icg tomorrow adjourn for an indefinit.
p--iod to meet at Washington. There
a. pears to be no good foundation fol
the rumor. II is quite possible thai
the commission may take a recess af
ter two or three weeks, but the com
| missioners On both sides stated tonigh
| that no adjournment would be taker
| until after the work had been careful
ly looked over and both sides had be
come satisfied as TO what could be &C
complished in the way OF general ad
justment OF all questions TO be decided

Hanna on Our Foreign Policy

st. Paul, Mimi, August Ex-senator
M. A. Hanna, of Ohio, arrived in the
city this evining from the Yellowstone
park. Speaking of the annexation
question he said:
The Philippines is problem we
cannot solve in hurry. We of course
must retain a coaling station there,
but l do not think likely we shall
want more than Manila and it's har-
Dor.
Cuba is another problem. I never
was much of a Cuban and am not
prepared to commit myself as to the
policy we should pursue there. We
propose to establish a stable govern
ment in that island, but what consti-
tutes stable government has not yet
been defined. 1 think, however, Cuba
will be an evolution and in about TWEEN.
ty years it will be so thoroughly Amer
icaniZed that there viii be no ques-
ton as to what a stable government
means"
