NOBLE IS ALL RIGHT
That Is the Belief of His Wyoming
Friends.
WAS IN CASPER FRIDAY
TEAM FOUND IN THE RESER-
VOIR NOT HIS.
Nc One Has Yet Been Able to Iden-
tify the Body, But His Name Is
Believed to Be Il. Eccles-More
Facts Brought Out BY a Careful
Investigation.
Especial to The Herald.O

Lander, Wyo., Aug. S.-The team
which vas found in the reservoir 20
miles from here has not been identi-
fed. 1t was at first thought it was the
one w. P. Noble drove for Casper last
week, but the messenger who visited
h reservoir reports the team a strange
one, and, in connection with it, the
body of a man has been found whom
no n has recognized, and it is sup
posed to have been the owner of the
horses. There is quite a mystery as
to how the team and man came to be
in the reservoir, and there is much
speculation about it. 1t is thought by
some to be purely accidental. but there
are those who persist in declaring there
has been foul play. An accident could
not have easily occurred. The road
leading by the reservoir is not a mar
row one, and to have gotten into it one
would have to do it deliberately. The
road runs around a wide bench. and the
team seems to nave been driven or
urged down I'VE an embankment on to
the edge of the reservoir, whre there is
evidence of a struggle. The body had
upon it, when found, a little money and
a small check, drawn payable to the
order of II. Eccles, which was not en-
dorsed. 1t is therefore believed that Ec-
cleS was the mans name. A thorough
investigation into the circumstances
will be made.

LATE NEWS FROM THE KLONDIEE
ONE HUNDRED PEOPLE DIRECT
FROM DAWSON.
Brought Down 800, ooO-Mining
Operations at a Standstill-Well

Port Townsend, Wash, Aug. S.-The
from Skaguay, Alaska, with 100 pas
sengers from Dawson City, who came
out up the Yukon river via the lakes.
They bring adviceS from Dawson up
to July q and considerable gold dust,
estimated at $1G0, 600. Joseph Barrett
of Seattle is probably the best liked
man financially, having brought out
about $3.50 in dust. Barrett has been
conducting a sporting house in Daw-
SON. Others brought out sums ranging
from $4,000 up to SIS, 600.
The steamer Monarch arrived at
Dawson on July % and the steamer
Sovereign on July 26, from st. Mich
aels. The Monarch was last reported
high and dry on the way up the river,
but the warm weather caused a sud
den rise in the river and she was easily
foated. The steamer Joseph Glosett,
owned by Portland parties and plying
between Dawson n the lakes, while
trying to run through White Horse
canyon struck a rock and sunk in six
feet of water. No lives were lost. All
the outfits were saved. though in a
damaged condition. 1t is thought
that the steamer can be foated again
and resume her run.
The Dawson market is we'll supplied
with fresh beef. several hundred hav-
ing already arrived. and about 300
head are on the trail. being driven in.
One of the first parties arriving with
cattle was H. j.. Miller of Seattle, who
reached there with So head, for which
he found a ready sale at $1.15 per
pound, dressed. Miller intends re-
turning Immediately with a drove of
hogs. He drove his cattle across the
lakes on the ice, while in the center
of the lakes the boats were making
regular trips. The party driving the
cattle me- with a serious accident at
Thirty-Mile river, resulting in the
drowning of a young man named
Shannon, a nephew of Willis Thorp
of Seattle, and several head of cattle.
Mining operations in the Klondike
are at a ~standstill and will continue
so until cold weather sets in. 1t is
estimated that about $500 idle men are
in Dawson, eagerly awaiting some
thing to turn up. This number is be-
ing swelled every day by new arrivals
from both up n down the river.
There are now more people there than

ties as particularly fitting hat Captain
Sigsbee should be given command of

were the first battleships of the new
American navy, both having been pro-
vided for by congress in the same ap-

in Cuban waters, especially during the
engagement which ended in the de-
struction of Admiral Cervera's squad
ron, has dispelled this feeling.

Gaines Cavalry VIII Start For the
Park Wednesday Morning.

San Francisco, Aug. S.-There are about
$50 men of the First New York volun-
teers at the Preside. One hundred and
Mariposa next Wednesday. About 400 will
been chartered from the J~ohnSon-Locke
company. Word was received at head
quarters today that the steamer had left
Seattle and would be here in a few days.
The remaining $50 men will sail on one
of the regular passenger steamers to the
islands.
Work is being rushed on the trans
ports Arizona and Scandal and although
it is the aim of General Merriam to AVE
them get away next Saturday, it prob
abl.- VIII ne Monday or Tuesday of next
week before they can do so.
There will be no change in the d~eSigna-
ton of trooD for the ships and the
Seventh California regiment will go on the
Scandal and recruits on the Arizona. un-
less orders to the contrary are received
from Washington.
The Utah cavalry, under command of
Captain Game, will break camp early
Wednesday morning and begin its trip
to the Yosemite and Sequoia parks.
The Yorktown will soon be ready for
sea, as the work is being rapidly pushed
forward at Mare Island. Her raoid-fre
X-inc guns are ready to go aboard and
as much woodwork as possible will be
eliminated from the vessel and its place
taken by corrugated iron. Work has also
commenced on the Ranger, the Adams and
the Hartford. The Alert will probably be
rebuilt on plans similar to those prepared
for the Ranger.

SKATER NOT RESPONSIBLE.
Inadequate Provision For Sick Due
to Lack of Means.

Washington, Aug. S.-General Shaft
er, in a report to the war department,
emphatically denies that he is re-
sponsible for the inadequate provision
made for the sick and wounded brought
from Santiago de Cuba to the United
States on the Seneca and Concho.
Everything possible. he says, was
sent with the sick and wounded. The
matter of shortage of water, he says,
is inexcusable. He concludes his re-
port as follows:
There is no xcuse for lack of food,
as there has at all times peer ple3ty
of that. I have no doubt that many
more were put on the ship than should
have gone, owing to the yellow fever.
and were almost wholly without hos
pital accommodation. The sick and
wounded had only the clothing on that
they wore into battle, and of course
that was ragged and worn out by the
time they reached home. There was

left. and their own extra clothing they
could not get at. There has never been

yesterday, having made the trip from Salt
Lake at his own expense. He was eX-
amined by a medical board here, and the

per three days later, a distance of over
100 miles. AS it is only 40 miles from
Lander to the point where the body

GROWTH OF SAN BERNARDINO|

| 1t has sixteen groceries, half dozen
clothing and shoe houses, and all other
lines in proportion, and 1t is safe to
say that the business Of the mercantile
department of San Bernardino has in
creased at least so per cent during 1897.
MANUFACTURING
While San Bernardino has not claimed
to be a manufacturing location in the
sense that would usually apply to such
cities. there is q constantly increasing
drift in that line in a quiet way. Sew
eral foundries and machine shops have
gradually come in without any flourish
of trumpets, the past year being notice.
able in that line, the location of the city,
the radiation of railroads in seven diff
ferent directions from the city assisting
in such enterprises.
THE NEW GRIST MILL
Perhaps the most prominent move in
this line is the location in San Bernar-
dino of the John V. Suman grist mill
during the past year. This was four
story frame building located near Col
ton, off the Santa Ana river, where the
lack of water supply was hindrance
to it's work. In seeking a new locality,
Mr.. Suman secured the flow of canal
from the Warm creek supply, and moved
the mill bodily, without taking out a
piece of machinery, but just as it stood.
AS the distance is over four miles, and
there was the Lytle creek to cross, the
| magnitude of the contract may be i'm
agined. 1t was done without dollars S
damage to either building or contents,
| and placed on the new foundation in San
Bernardino. Here additions were made
to the building, increasing it's capacity,
and for power thirtyflve foot overshot
wheel was procured that, although 1t
turns on it's axle but three and half
times in a minute, not only supplies all
the demands of the mill, but there is
power to spare, and the proprietor conI
templates adding creamery to his Other
business to utilize the waste power The
wheel is run on ball bearings, and being
composed entirely of steel is evidently
intended for perpetual run.
The mill is supplied with the latest
patent rollers for flour, turning out the
very best quality on the market, while
it is supplied with the more common
