100000, 900 I'm Gold Coming from the
KlOndIke.

The steamer Danube has arrived at Van
couver with passengers from Dawson City
who say that from present indications $50,
0000 900 worth of gold will be brought out
of the Klondike region this spring. A
large quantity of gold will be brought down
on the next steamer. These men report
that very rich discovery has been made
on Rosebud Creek, and that prospectors
are flocking to that region.
Thomas Elliott, who left Dawson Feb
ID, says when he reached Big Salmon River
he found the Canadian police excited over
a gold strike made on the Big Salmon. A
halfbreed connected with the mounted po-
lice, sank three holes in different parts of
the river bar, and dirt averaged $3.50 per
pan.
There seems to be no reasonable ground
for thinking that the schooner Bessie X. =,
from San Francisco to Skaguay, is wreck
off Vancouver Island, and her owners deny
that she is lost Although she is long over
due, the delay is attributed to her gasoline
engine, which has caused trouble before.

THE NEWS IN BRIEF.
Murdered in Prison.

Convict Braun sIsshed the Throat OF
She was visiting Him and Was in
sight of Officers
Adrian Braun, a convict in Sing Sing,
n. Y, prison, murdered his wife, who was
visiting him at the prison, Saturday. Braun
was sentenced in New York city last Au-
gust to serve atwo-year sentence for beating
his wife, but Mrs. Braun forgave him and
expressed great sorrow because of his i'm
prisonment. She had been living in New
York city, with three of her children, her
two other children having been placed in
st. Joseph's asylum. When Mrs. Braun
arrived at the prison she went to State
Detective Jackson's office and inquired for
her husband He had been at work as a
potato peeler. When the two met, they
kissed each other. They sat for half an
hour talking, only a few feet away from
the desk Of Detective jackson, who was
present. Finally Detective jackson in
formed Braun that his time was up, but
Braun pleaded for little more time, say
ing: Cant we have few minutes morep
Because of the trouble Mrs. Braun had
taken to pay her husband a visit, the plea
was granted.
Suddenly Braun raised his arm and the
detective saw a long thin knife, Braun
brought it down with fearful force against
the left side of his wife's neck. 1t severed
the blood vessels, and almost instantly the
woman was dead. Detective jackson
sprang upon Braun, but the convict had
time to cash the woman's head several
times more Two other convicts who were
in the corridor came to the detectives as
sstance and the murderer was subdued.
Warden Sage had him removed to the
death house. Another knife, similar to the
one he had stabbed his wife with, was
found in his pocket.
Warden Sage questioned Braun as to
why he killed his wife, but the man re-
fused to say anything. Later he seemed
to be sorry for what he had done. Strict
guard has been placed over the murderer,
and he will at once be charged with the
crime

cuted the fourth Friday in March, 1888,

execution before Bells, and there was an
interval of nearly nine years between
them, it will be seen that the infliction of
the death penalty is rare thing in this
state. Mrs.l Meaker's son, Lewis Almon
Meaker, was condemned to die with her,
but the general assembly committed the
sentence to imprisonment for life. lie died

Only one other woman is said to have

The law OF Vermont requires that a SEES

vene between the sentence of death and
execution, that the case may, if necessary,
be brought before the lawmakers who alone
can commute the death penalty.

An Italian Author and Politician Killed
I'm Duel.


Signor Felice Carlo Cavallotti, poet,

radical member of the chamber of deputies
for rteOleona, was killed near Rome,
Italy. Sunday in a duel with swords with
Signor Macola, member of the chamber of
deputies and editor of the Gazetta di Ven

an article published in the columns of the
Milan Secol and the Gazetta di Venezia. 1t
took place at an unfrequented spot beside
the Porta Maggiore. The four seconds
were men prominent in public life.
Shortly before the meeting Signor Caval-
lotti seemed in excellent spirits and joked
with his seconds. When the word was
given he attacked his opponent vigorously
The first two engagements were without
result, but in the third Signor Cavallotti
received a thrust in the throat that severed
his jugular. At first it was thought that
he was only slightly injured, but the gray
lty of the wound was soon perceived on
his putting his hand to his mouth He
withdrew it covered with blood, and could
not utter a word. The doctors and his sec

Unprecedented Volume of Business.

Bradstreet's report says Nearly all signs
point to an unprecedented volume of bust
ness being done or arranging for at the
present time. The aggressive strength of
prices, record breaking bank clearngs and
continued large exports, particularly of the
lower priced cereals, a very heavy volume
of business in iron and steel and kindred
lines, and generally satisfactory reports as
to the volume of spring trade at leading
dlstributive centres, are among the visible
features of this trade development. Near
ly all of the countrys cereal products are
higher in price this week, as are also some
varieties of provisions, bessemer pig iron,
copper, raw cotton and tin. The further
advance in pig iron this week would seem
to indicate that the immense current pro-
duction is as yet without visible effect on
values.
The aggregate clearings of n cities dur
ing the month just clos ed amounted to So
533, $40, lip, decrease of per cent from
January, but an increase over February
last year of 81 per cent; over February,
1876, of 30 per cent, and over February,
1894, the lowwater mark in bank clearings
since the panic, of - per cent.
Bank clearings for the current week
break all weekly records in total amount
ing to 81 ,541 900, 900, an increase over last
week of % per cent, gain over last year

Saw the blowing Up of the vain,

w. w. Howard, the magazine writer,
who returned from Havana on the steam
ship Vigilancia, saw the blowing up of the
battleship Maine. There were two explo-
sions, the first dull, but the second so loud
that it shook the ground and nearly stunned
him. Mr.. Howard says that every Ameri-
can in Havana believes the Maine was
wrecked from outside by design, but that
the Spanish government had nothing to do
with it. Spaniards hold TO the accident
theory. There seems to be little fear of
war, and the Americans in Havana are
well treated Mr.. Howard confirms the
worst that has been written about the mis-
cry caused by the war. He has not seen
such impoverished conditions outside of the
Armenian districts.
