SCURVY EPIDEMIC LIKELY.

e. III. Wells Says Thousands of Klondik-
erss May Perish From 1t.
ST. PAUL, Feb S.-"The 5000 pros
pectors now at and around the Klon-
dixie are threatened less with starva.
ton than with scurvy. But they are
actually in the shadow of DEATH
This is an authoritative statement
from the man who brought from Daw-
son City, which he left as late as Dec.
20, the special disS atches Of Captain P.
H. Ray, Eighth infantry, U. S. A., to
the United States war department.. It
was the statement made at the Mer-
chants hotel by E. H. Wells, a news.
paper correspondent, who, has been
more or less in Alaska during the last
eight years, who has correspondent for
Frank Leslie's Weekly and other lead
ing periodicals and who is now repre-
senting the Scrips- McCrae newspaper
syndicate.
Mr.. Wells said that provisions were
scarce when he left the Klondike. But
there would probably be enough of a
few staple foods such as pork and beans
to prevent actual starvation next
spring. Yet scurvy has already made
its appearance among the men who
were limited to diet unsuitable for
their conditions. -..'.
scurvy Will Be Epidemic.
t'And soon,'' explained Mr.. Wells.
''scurvy will become epidemic, the doc
tors say. That is, it may not become
so until the latter part Of March or a
little later. But without a sufficient
variety of food scurvy is a certainty,
and scurvy up there is much more fatal
than on shipboard.
''The truth has been concealed.
Why? Simply because almost every.
body coming out heretofore has be-
longed to one of two classes. They
were either men that had speculative
schemes and wanted to sell mining
properties located in the Klondike and
therefore didn't want the public to got
prejudiced against the country by
stories of starvation, or they are men
that intend, as many do, to stock up
with provisions and rush back at the
earliest possible moment so as to take
advantage of, the famine prices. Such
schemers wouldn't like any more COM
petitors than can be avoided.
Captain Rays sta tements are abso-
lutely authentic. There are hundreds
Of men alRg the Yukon without food
or money. .>- r.
"No, there isn't enough at Fort Yu.
kon to supply the big crowd at Daw-
son. But the government relief expedi-
ton left Seattle, believe, late last
week. It it gets through within two
months, and it ought to arrive sooner,
it will be in time to save the miners
from the horrors of scurvy epidemic
The reported discoveries of new
placers on the Stewart river have been
much exaggerated. I think Alaska will
repeat the story of California. A few
men will get rich. The vast ma jority
Will be bitterly disappointed. -

Sensational Outbreak 81 Attorneys Re-I

dreds Of persons, anxious to hear what

adjournment between Attorneys Car
man and Lennehan. opposing counsel
in. the Lattimer shooting case, thronged
the courtroom. SIT So
Judge Woodward spoke of the Incl
dent, saying that after he had left the.
bench and before court adjourned, an
alteration had arisen between two Of
the lawyers engaged in the trial, which
the court did not fully hear, nor realize
the words until they were seen in the
newspapers. ....ss .s
Had we heard, 2 said the Judge,
''what. was said, we should have dealt
with the lawyers in q summary man
ner as the affair SO deserved, and if
there is q repetition of it, we shall pun-
ish the guilty parties for contempt Of
court. = ). .8s s.
Then came . severe denunciation of
the sensationalism Of certain newspa-
pers, in endeavoring, as the court said,
to prevent justice by an exaggeration
of the facts and incidents Of the trial.
He would, he said, not mention any
names at present, but ..if the astound-
ing falsehoods and Misrepresentation
continue, the representatives Of the
papers will find the door. of the court
closed to them. =
~ Testimony of Justice Jones.
The first witness was Silas Jones,
justice of the peace of West Hazleton.
He stated that he had seen the meeting
of the deputies and strikers at West
Hazleton, and followed the deputies
to Lattimer. He saw Sheriff Martin
advance toward them with a paper in
his hand. Some of them surrounded
him and an alteration occurred, but
witness could not exactly tell how the
alteration commenced, or how it ter
minated. He heard couple of shots and
then volley, and saw several men fall.
Two who fell near him were dead. He
was asked what the spectators said
after the shooting. The defense OBJ.
jected, and, after listening to ali the
lection, thus shutting out the evidence.
This is regarded as an important point
gained for the defense. 81
just before the noon adjournment
the court accepted bail for all the ac-
cused deputies and the sheriff in the
amout Of Sc, 900 in each case, making
$402, 900 in ALL Bail was furnished by

| Miss Bloch, the Center of Attraction,

The Vogt opera house presented
very pretty appearance last night, the
different booths being very artistically
arranged. the daintiest perhaps were
the crepe paper, flower, doll and candy
booths. Besides these are the fancy
articles, the domestic booth, cooking
depot, refreshment stand and tish pond.

amount of interesting curios dating back
for over hundred years, and is pre-
sided over by Mrs. Collins and Mrs.

tent, surrounded by fir trees. Here re-
eides the gypsy who has made palmistry
a special study, and was said last night
to be an adept in delineating character
and giving pointers as to your future.
A large crowd attended last evening,
eager to hear Miss Bloch sing, for Dalles
people who have already listened to her
in Portland were as anxious to hear her
again as were those who have never had
the opportunity. She possesses a very
attractive personality, and her beauty
Ialone would demand the attention OF the
audience; but what voice. No singer
i'm the Vogt has ever so successfully
made it vibrate with musical sound.
While her selections were perhaps more
classic, and charmed everyone, the en-
cores were just as pleasing from the fact
that they were simpler and adapted to
the tastes of everyone in the house. She
