to issue letters of credit on all it's sta tions in Alaska. The committee, during the early days of it's work, spent conslo- erable time endeavoring to secure Just such an arrangement. It saves the neceS- sity of carrying any considerable amount of money and besides encouraging people to go this way 1t will have tendency to bring them back here after they nave been in Alaska.
 One of the prominent business men who represents very large Alaskan interests called at the rooms of the committee and stated that he had just returned from the north, and that he found many of the statements coming from the Sound cities incorrect. He says the manner in which they manipulate the reported sailings of vessels is somewhat unique. If vessel is to sail on a given day it is reported the day before and the date after 1t sails, as though each day was its sailing date, thus making the report appear that more vessels are sailing than is really the fact.
 He says that the exhibit at the ferry surpasses any of those made in the Sound cities, and that he took pains be- fore making himself known at the rooms to ascertain the character of information that was being given out there. This, he says, Is remarkably accurate and com plete, and added that he was so well satisfied that the committee was doing good work that he desired to leave his subscription for $100. but did not wish ms name mentioned.
 Several changes have been made in the dates of sailing of vessels for Alaska. The Alliance was to sail on February Q, but will not sail until February S; the Albion will sail on February g. the Kar- lux, which was to sail on February 3, has been turned back to the owners by the parties who had her under contract. and the greater number of her passengers have engaged transportation on the Whitelaw, which will sail for Dyea and Skaguay on February 10.

Charged With Accepting Thirty Dollars From
 a Prisoner.
TCld Him He Would Keep It Until His Case Was Tried
 in Court.
CHIEF LEES IS WEALTHY
The Patrolrr1an's Accuser Mysteri- ously Disappears From the
 City Prison.

Policeman Hutchings, of the Califor- mia street station, will in all probabil- ity have to answer to the Police Com missioners for what seems to be seri- ous infraction of the rules of the de- Sandri, a miner, who arrived here a short time ago from Montana.
 Last Thursday Sandri was arrested by Hutchings on Broadway and was charged at the California-street station with a serious offense. On the way to the station Sandri alleges Hutchings induced him to give him all the money he had, amounting to $50. on the plea that he would take care of it.
 A short time after being locked up Sandri, with a number of other pris- oners, was placed in the van and transferred to the Central Station. He was interviewed by police court at torney, who, on hearing his story. at once informed Captain Robinson.
 The latter notified Chief Lees, and an investigation was begun.
 Otto Heyneman. the Chiefs stenog- rapher, was sent to take the statement of Sandri, who reiterated the charge against the police officer. Subsequent lv Sandri was taken to Judge Camp bells court to be tried for the offense, but on account of the accusation he had made against Hutchings it was de- cided to continue the case until next Tuesday.
 In the meantime every effort was made to keep the facts quiet.
 Sandri was particularly reticent, and refused to discuss the charge he had

preferred against the officer

preferred against the officer
 Shortly afterward Sandri was re- leased from prison but by whose au- thority could not be learned. There Is no entry of his discharge on the prison books, the space allotted to the dispo- sition of cases having been left blank. Captain Robinson professes ignorance of how Sandri got out, except to say that he supposed Judge Campbell had issued the order for his release
 Judge Campbell. however, denies that he released the prisoner. After granting him the continuance asked for. he says he ordered the bailiff to return him to the City Prison, which was done.
 Chief Lees, it is understood, is con- siderably worked up over the charge against Hutchings, and will have him brought before the Commissioners at their next regular meeting
 Hutchings has been in trouble before. A short time ago he was accused by a citizen of having struck him simply be- cause he spoke to a girl who was a friend of the officer.

ALASKA AND ITS TRADE.
The Committee Having Charge o. the Interest of San Francisco
 at Work

The best information coming to the Alaskan Bureau indicates that there is already a congested condition existing in the north that will soon become seri- ous. It seems probable that not to ex- ceed 9 per cent of those attempting to go into the Klondike via the passes will be able to reach there. owing to the linn ited number that can get over the passes, and the scarcity of timbers suitable for boatbuilding after they reach Lake Ben> nett.
 The Alaska Commercial Company has notified the bureau that 1t is now ready

Water for Sunset Valley.

Progress" was what the executive committee of Sunset Valley Improvement Cluo reported at the meeting last night. The cause for this unusual report was that the Spring Valley Water Company had made start in laying eight-inch pipes along Eleventh avenue between I and streets. The club urged the con- mlttee to prosecute the work and try to induce the company to continue its work as far as M street. It was recommended to have a reservoir placed on the hill above the Affiliated Colleges. which would give supply of water not only to the inhabitants of the valley but also to habited.

Votes Are Equally Divided.

The majority of the teachers in the School Department have sent in their answers to the Board of Education In re- sponse to the question propounded by the Board of Freeholders as to whether they think members of the board should be appointed or elected. A rough tally of the votes shows that the opinions are about equally divided. and that the larger portion of the teachers believe that there should be twelve members of the board.

Patrick Gordon, a scavenger, was ar rested yesterday by Policeman Butter worth for dumping garbage on a vacant lot on Harrison street. between Four teenth and Fifteenth.

Gillen Was Justified.

The Police Commissioners met last night and dismissed the charges of un- officerlike conduct preferred against Pa trolman Peter Gillen. New Years morn ing in arresting man named Williams for creating disturbance it was charged that Gillen assaulted him with his club. breaking his nose. The evidence showed that Williams first attacked the officer. and to protect himself he knocked him down with his club. When the case was dismissd Williams became very indignant and announced that he would get even with the officer in some other way. He was quickly called to account for his Ian guage and ordered to leave the Commits SionerS room.
