ALASKAN TRADE.
Decision in a Case Presented by
the Canadian Pacific Co.

WASHINGTON, Jan. "a = Acting
Secretary Spaulding to-day decided in
a case presented by the Canadian Pa
cific Navigation Company that the
transportation of American freight
from Seattle or other American ports
consigned for Alaska via Victoria, Van
couver or Nanaimo, and at those ports
transferred to British vessels is vio-
lation of our coasting laws, and subjects
the merchandise to forfeiture.
The decision is q strong measure foT
the protection of the American coasting
trade to Alaska, into which there have
been indications that British corpora
tions hope to break.
General Spaulding to-day says: This
measure is one of several in course
of preparation by the Treasury De-
partment, which seem to be called for
by recent events and new conditions,
to protect and develop American inter-
ests in the Pacific and in Alaska. The
Act of 1888, under which this ruling is
made, is: No merchandise shall be
transported under penalty of forfeiture
thereof from one port of the United
States to another port of the United
States in a vessel belonging wholly or
in part to a subject of any foreign

BOISE Qd.), Jan. o4.-In connection
with the celebration in San Francisco
of the discovery of gold in California.
the story told by Nathan Smith of this
State is interesting. Before his death
Smith often told the story and ex-
pressed q desire that the true history
OF the discovery should be published.
Smith claimed to have been with Mar
shall. He said when they We're deep
ening the tail race to the mill, the lit
tie son of one of the men was playing
in the water. This man was named
WINNER. His boy bothered him, show
ing pebbles that he picked from the
water. Finally the boy picked up
something bright and went 10 show il
to his father. The latter impatientiy
ordered him to go away. and the boy
sat down on the bank and cried. Mar
shall sought to comfort him, asking
to see what he had. 1t proved TO be
the nugget that made Marshall and
California famous.
STOCKTON, Jan. 24.-The Native

of gold by a jolly entertainment made

picions of Bialk, the old watchman.
who, when he returned with the Hun

course of which he denounced the ac-
crediting of Special Commissioner
Blount to the Government at Honolulu
as piece of duplicity without paral-
lel.''
Morgan reiterated his belief that Mr..
Cleveland was in favor of annexation,
but that Mr.. Dole's honesty forced the
President to abandon his policy of over
throwing the Provisional Government.
The correspondence he read he said.
laid the foundation for the broad predi-
cate that Mr.. Cleveland was capable of
declaring one policy and intending TO
carry into effect another.
White of California facetiously re-
ferred to Morgan's discussion of the Ha-
waiian question in open session, and de-
clared that the Senator's remarks
showed the utter futility and folly of
confining such measures to the eXecu-
tive sessions of the Senate.
In accordance with notice previously
given, Perkins of California called up
the pension approximation BILL
Gallinger of New Hampshire secured
the adoption of an amendment provid-
ing that hereafter no pension shall be
paid upon power of attorney from PEN
sioners residing in foreign countries.
After the adoption of the committees S
amendment to the BILL German of Mary
land briefly addressed the Senate upon
the measure. He said that the bill did
not carry within $S, 000000 or $4,000 600
of the sum necessary to meet the deficit
in revenue which, he said, was antiei-
pated by the Administration.
II ~ q ~
bill, then made a general statement re-
garding the bill, saying that it had been
framed upon estimates submitted by the
SECRETARY of the Interior, the officer of
the Government charged with that duty.
Stewart of Nevada said there should
be no deficiency in the treasury, as there
was now in the vaults a great surplus
of S241 900, 600, which he thought ought
to be put in circulation in accordance
with law.
Allen of Nebraska offered an amend
ment to the bill providing that hereafter
no pension less than SS month should
be granted, and that all pensions less
than IS per month now being paid be
raised to that amount.
Perkins made the point against the
amendment that it was new legislation.
Allen took Perkins point of order as
the pretext for an extended speech. IN
which he lampooned the Republican
party. declaring in the course of his re-
marks that the Republicans We're the
worst enemy the old soldiers had.
Perkins said, in reply. that the SEN
ator from Nebraska had taken the OPP
portunity offered to deliver political
speech, when it was a We'll known fact
that the Republican party was the
friend of the old soldier.
Without reaching any conclusion as
to the point of order against Allen s
amendment, the Senate at $50 p. m,
on motion of German, adjourned un-
til tomorrow.

Mr.. Mckinley had said in a private
conversation. While he did not pre-

he did not believe the President had

made the President say he would use
his personal influence with the mem
bers of the House to secure the passage

there was a member on the floor who
believed the President had said such
things.

Republican side.
After completing seven pages of the
bill the House adjourned.
