Juneau Citizens Charge Him With

lFey VAS arrested by United States Mar
shan Staley on his arriva. a. juneau No
yemher and being taken before a magis-
trate was admitted TO bail.
The charge against lvey $ criminal lioei.
The warrant Of arrest was sworn 10 by
1ohn q Hyde, one OF the men accused by
Dir. lvey of being implicated in the Illicit
tFafhc in whisky. The information on
which the warrant was sworn out was con-
taIned IN interview in the Post-lnteIl-
geilcer with Mr.. Ivey published last June.
Mr. lVey was a passenger on the Cottage
CITY when she sailed from Seattle two
weeks ago He was informed here that he
would be arrested on his arrival al Juneau.
but manifested no concern over the matter.
The controversy between Mr.. ivey and
certain gentlemen prominent IN the coast
towns OF Alaska has been fully ventilated
in the newspapers. That somebody has
been guilty of dealing in whisky by the
wholesale IS pretty generally conceded by
all the residents OF the Alaska coast cities.
but no one has yet been proven guilty OF
frauds against the government. The in
terview with Mr.. Ivey proved one OF the
sensations Of the year at Juneau, Dyea
and other points owing TO the sweeping
character of the ale cations he made IN II.
1nformatio from Juneau Is 10 the effect
that If Mr. Ivey publishes Il retraction Of
the charges he made, the prosecution
agans; him will drop Whether the collec-
tor will pursue this course or not is doubt
full. His bondsmen are Z. Valentine and
Judge Decker.

Every hour yesterday brought the next
national convention OF the Woman's Chris
tan Temperance Union nearer and nearer
L, Seattle The committee appointed by
the Chamber Of Commerce. after steady
and systematic canvass OF the business

for believing that the entire guarantee

telegram was sent yesterday evening To
Mrs. Clara Hoffman, recording secretary
Of the national association at 81. Paul.
giving her the requisite assurance.
|. A. Nadeau and l.. j. Colman, OF the
committee, stated last night that while
the entire amount had not been technically
subscribed. yet they felt so sure Of a sue
cessfu! completion OF the LIST from what
had already been done that they could AZ
ford to say to Mrs. Hoffman that the guar
antee fund was all right.
The noble women now in session AT St.
Paul will be called on to settle definitely
the location of the next convention. While
Seattle has no special claim upon the con-
vention, yet it is well understood. partly
through the kindly feeling os the
convention for Seattle, and partly
through the good offices OF Mrs. Baxter.
;lnancier Of the national organization. who
is now personally interested In this city,
that Seattle will be chosen, now that the
necessary guarantee fund has been assured.
The committee Will resume its canvass
of the city this morning. and the members
hope to find the loyal spirit Of support and
cooperation which has prompted them in
sending the telegram in order that Sc
attic might not be shut ont from the list
of cities competing for an honor which il
is generally conceded Will be OF large prac-
teal and far-reachiug benefit 10 the seat
OF the next convention.
