publican clubs in the country, was sued to-
day to prevent its board of directors from

bers who figure as plaintiffs in the case are
Mayor McKisson, the senatorial candidate
put up in opposition to Senator Hanna;
Speaker Mason and Representative Bran
ley, of the Ohio House of Representatives
and Senator Burke of the Ohio Senate. The
rules of the club stipulate that every men,
Der shall stand by the nominees of the Re-
publican party. The four plaintiffs claim
first, that Senator Hanna was not the nom
inee of the party in the sense intended ly
the rules, and that the club being a stock
company. they, owners of stock, cannot
be deprived of their shares. Upon proper
application Judge Ong, of the Common
Pleas Court granted an order, temporarily
restraining the club from proceeding with

is sending into the interior of Alaska with
supplies for the relief of miners who are
reported to be in want sailed for Dyea to-
night on the steamship George w. Elder
The Elder carried $50 passengers, ffty-one
of whom are officers and enlisted men of
the army who will act as escort to the
pack train, which, it is expected, will car
ry the supplies over the passes The Of
GERS in charge of the detachment sailing
by the Elder are Captain George Ruhen,
assistant quartermaster; Captain Bogardus
Lieutenant w. Clark assistant and Lieu
tenant G.. M. Kemp assistant surgeon.
About two hundred tons of provisions
were forwarded by the government from
here, and an additional supply will go from
Seattle in few days.
Brgadier General Merriam, commanding
the Department of the Colorado, who has
general supervision of preparing the expe-
Fourth Infantry, to the command of the re-
lief expedition. Major Rucker has been in
Alaska for several weeks and has taken
temporary station at Dyea, where he has es-
tablished camp and supply depot. General
Merriam expects to go to Alaska on the
steamer Oregon, which is scheduled to sail
from here Feb 3 and from Dyea he will
direct affairs until the expedition is started
over the passes. Captain l.. D. Brainard,
commissary of subsistence and disbursng
officer for relief supplies, will also go for
ward by the Oregon.
The government has let a contract to the
Snow and Ice Transportation Company of
Chicago for carrying $50 tons of supplies
from Dyea to Dawson City, but as the
paraphernalia of the company has not yet
arrived on the Pacific coast. it is probable
that General Merriam viii push one a pOr-
ton of the supplies by pack train to Lake
Lebarge and there build boats on which to
carry the supplies down the Yukon. 1t is
expected that the reindeer brought from
Norway by the government will be landed
in Alaska within a month and if possible,
additional supplies will be taken in with
them,

LORD cAvENDIsH.
EngIishman Who Is Fond of sport and
Not AyerNe to Empire Making.

NOT AVerSe 10 Empire MukinSs
LONDON. Feb. 5.-The Cavendish expe-
dition, which is about to leave London, is
enc of the most striking examples of how
young and wealthy Englishmen, with
fondness for sport and exploration, COM
bine the tastes with empire-making. Henry
Cavendish, relative of the Duke of Devon
shire has already spent 100000 in prepara-
tions for the expedition. Although nominally
private its aims are on the upper Nile,
where the French are supposed to be oper-
ating, and are well known to high govern
ment officials AS a matter of fact, the
route adopted was suggested by the chiefs
OF the intelligence department of the War
once, and the Foreign Office had the
scheme under consideration for some weeks.
The force which will accompany Mr.. Cav
endish will be better armed than any body
of men which has ever entered Africa. 1t
will take with it $50 900 rounds of ammuni-
rapid-fire guns. 1t will be well provided
against surprises. Mr.. Cavendish expects
to reach the upper Nile in three or four
months, and may continue to Khartoum
after the Dervishes have been beaten.
DIR. Donaldson Smith, the American eX-
plorer, recently telegraphed to the Royal
Geographical Society from India announc-
ing his readiness TO explore the upper Nile,
but the society replied that the matter had
been settled by Mr. Cavendish going.

Dirt Discovered Along Tributaries of
the Yukon That Yields 80 to

DEPARTURE OF RELIEF PARTY
SOLDIERS AND SUPPLIES NOW EN-
ROUTE TO THE KLONDIKE.
An Appeal from Dyea AMI Skaguay
for United states Troops to Re-
press LaVyIess Elements.

VANCOUVER, B. c., Feb. 5.-The steam
ship Coquitian, which recently struck on
rock near Mary island, off the southwest
coast of Alaska, while bound north has ar
rived here direct from Skaguay, bringing
news of affairs in the northern territory
The news that many strikes had been
made on the Big Salmon is confirmed by
party which came out for supplies. Pay
dirt, yielding 30 cents to the pan, has been
discovered in the gravel above bed rock
which, at last reports, had not been
reached. On Henderson creek, five miles be-
low the Stewart good strikes have been
made. 1t is likely the stream will prove rich
in gold. Latest reports from the interior of
Alaska are especially encouraging. Minook
river and it's tributaries, as well as scores
of other streams in that region, promise to
surprise the world, says a returned pros
pector in the next year, and all the United
States will rejoice. It is now generally con-
ceded that the winters cleanup will not
be more than $40, 100000. The Ccuquitlan
passed two steamers bound for Skaguay. 1t
is reported that Skaguay is already over
crowded and work is scarce.
A letter from Juneau says: "A stampede
from Dawson is imminent. The news was
brought out by party of about a dozen
men who reached Skaguay on Jan. q, sew
eral of whom had reached there by a small
steamer the evening of the same day.
Among them was George McKenna, of
Douglass island, who has been in the Yukon
for two years He also stated that a number
of very rich new strikes have been made.
This is the very latest from the Klondike,
as four men in the party left Dawson
on Dec 10, for St. Mary river. They
intend to prospect the Stewart river up
its course to and into the Rocky mountains.
Gold has always been found in the bars of
the Yukon. For years the banks of the
Stewart have produced gold, and in some
places there has been a rich yield to the
pan. AS much of the gold in the Yukon
came doubtless from the KlOndike and its
unequaled rich NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS., Edo
RADIO, Hunker and other creekS-it is argued
that So also, the gold in the Stewart river
bars may come from the same situation
and from deposits equally as rich. Two new
creeks have been discovered. One is in the
Klondike district. Here the ground shows 40
cents to the pan, with seven feet of pay
dirt to work. The richest creek is in the
Indian river district in the same vicinity.
Eighty cents a pan was found in this dis
trict a few inches below the surface with
bed rock many feet below. This is said to
equal anything found at first on Bonanza
or Eldorado. There was a stampede to the
Indian river district as soon as the discov-
cry became known. 3fnf

The German government is disagreeably
disappointed at the considerable diminution
of the import duties and taxes of the last
six months of 1897 In December alone they

nous decrease in the sugar exports of
America. This will be cited against the
large appropriations asked for in the naval
bin.

ENGLISH BUCCANEERS.
The Recent Attempt to Raid the Sus
Coast of MOroccO.

LONDON, Feb. 5.-When the evidence is
sifted 1T appears that the Globe Venture
Syndicate's descent on the Sus coast of
Morocco, announced on Jan. 81, closely re-
sembles DIR. Jameson's Transvaal raid The
pretended ignorance of Sir Edward Thorn
ton, chairman of the syndicate and former
ly British ambassador at Washington is
wholly untenable, for it is known that
warnings were received in London at
Christmas to the effect that if the Tourma-
line, the vessel of the expedition persisted
IN her intention to land arms and ammuni-
ton on the Sus coast she would meet with
a warm reception by the troops and ships
of the Sultan of Morocco.
The Saturday Review protests against
such buccaneering expeditions hazarding
imperial prestige for the benefit of a band
OF needy Adventures and picturesque free
booters, and expresses the hope that the
Sultan will press a claim for damages for
TINS Migrant violation of international
faith, even though the dignity and pockets
of the ex-diplomatists suffer accordingly
