left for the frozen north by steamer from
Portland, and several parties are outfit
ting for an overland trip from Spokane.
About thirty persons have already stated
their intentions Of starting in the spring,
going either on fJot and shipping sup.
plies ahead, or taking a pack train. The
route most approved is from Spokane al
most straight north-a distance OF about
1000 miles--over the old Hudson Bay
Company's trail. This route has two
marked advantages Tbs first is that
supplies can be sent ahead to the navi
gable part Of the Mckenzie river, there
by eliminating the necessity OF packers
for the first 1000 miles, and the second ia
that all along the route from Edminton
to Dawson are British forts, trading sta

thus furnishing an opportunity to re.
plenish supplies in case OF "over Con
sumption" This also brings them d.
rect to Dawson and avoids the difficulties

reputation by curing his patients. He
will not be afraid toadvertse his ability

Special Dispatch to The Call.

ANACONDA, Mont, Jan. 13.-At an early hour this morning the discovery was made that five men were entomb- ed in a tunnel. which the Anaconda Copper Mining Company is construct ing for water-fuming purposes under bluff about a half mile beyond the city limits. A large quantity of powder which has been carried into the tun nel for the use of the night shift was exploded by some means, now un- known, wrecking the face of the tun- mel, which is about 1S0 feet long, and resulting in a slide of earth which closed the tunnel completely at a dis tance of about forty feet from it's en- trance.
 From the moment of the discovery of the accident, diligent effort has been made to reach the five miners, concern ing whose fate the deepest anxiety Is felt. At 10 o'clock tonight, those en- gagged in rescue work felt sure that the noise of the miners signal' reach ed them from within the tunnel.
 It was proposed to drive a three inch pipe through the mass of earth that had filled the tunnel. This plan was vigorously followed and twenty foot length was successfully driven. A second section was connected and to the joy of the anxious spectators it penetrated the mass of earth. Imme- diately, at Il o'clock tonight, com munication was established with the imprisoned men. Four of them were reported alive and well; one Is dead. The work of reaching them is going on with greater zeal than ever. The men, through an improvised speaking tube, reported that they suffered from neither thirst nor hunger, but that they wanted candles.
 Joe Mcleod, formerly of Butte. Is the dead miner. The surviving four are: Andrew Ulsher. Michael KoZina, Mat PetritZ and Mat KoZin.
 Six hours hence will probably find them released. It is not yet learned how the explosion occurred.

HAS THE NAMES
 OF LYNCHERS
Douglas County Grand Jury Carefully Investigating the
 Uber Affair.

CARSON, Jan. 13.-The Douglas County Grand Jury, Investigating the Uber lynching, is proceeding cautiously with its work. The Sheriff and Con- stable were the first witnesses called yesterday and it is believed that Con- stable Grey gave the names of two of the men in the mob. Mrs. Brown had told people after the affair that she overheard her son being invited to join the lynchers, and she was called to testify. A great many witnesses were examined to-day and the excitement is such that people are in Genoa from all parts of the valley. So many witnesses have been summoned that it is ap- parent that the jury is doing its best to perform the task imposed by Judge Mack and probe the affair to the bot tom.
 The talk in Genoa last evening was that Hell would pop about Saturday" when the Grand Jury is expected to report, but 1t is doubtful if the jury will be able to report or hand in an in dictment before next week.

So the Assassin Will Escape Payment Of the Death
 Penalty.
Sentenced to Be Detained as Crirl1i- nal Lunatic During Her Ma

Special Dispatch to The Call.

LONDON, Jan. 13.-The trial of Richard Arthur Prince, the super who killed William Terriss, the actor, be gan to-day at the Old Bailey. Justice Channel presided. The audience in cluded many theatrical people. There were about a dozen ladies in court At the witness table sat Tom Terriss. son of the deceased. Answering the usual question of the clerk Prince declared that he was guilty, with provocation."
 The prisoner demanded the assist ance of Queens counsel. The Judge explained that this was impossible without special license, but added that the prisoner was entitled to counsel, and advised him to take the advice of the lawyer who appeared for him at the instance of his friends.
 Prince finally consented to have counsel. After consultation with coun- sel, Prince said that, being advised to do so, he would plead not guilty.
 The prosecution then opened their case. As the murder was being de- scribed, Prince frequently smiled and wrote a number of notes to his coun- sel, apparently to correct absolutely unimportant details. The testimony presented was the same as was taken at BOw-street Police Court, when the prisoner was arralSned rom 1errlSS was the first witness.
 The defense alleged that Prince suf- fered in his youth from a sunstroke. and that more recently he has had de- lusOns.
 The mother and brother of the pris- oner testified regarding the sunstroke. It developed that Prince had claimed that he was Christ and that his mother was the Virgin Mary. It was also as serted in court that Prince had once attacked one of his brothers with a knife.
 The Judge summed up. favoring Princes insanity, and the jury was out half an hour. The prisoner was pale and careworn as he faced the jury.
 The jury returned a verdict that Prince was guilty; that he was aware of what he did; but the jury, accepting the medical testimony, declare him to be irresponsible"
 After hearing the verdict Prince at tempted to make a speech, but was checked by the Judge. The prisoner then thanked all concerned, at which some applause was started. which was immediately suppressed by the Judge
 The judgment of the court was that Prince be detained as a criminal luna tic during Her Majesty's pleasure.

McKEKNA'S NOMINATION.
 TO BE CONFIRMED TO-DAY.
Oooositjo1 From One Senator Because of the Telegram congrutuiatng Hanna
 Upon His Reelection.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 13.-Senator Perkins said tonight that McKenna' s nomination would, without a doubt, be confirmed tomorrow. It was reported to the Senate by the Judiciary Commit tee late this afternoon without single negative vote being cast. Only one Sen ator gave notice when the report was submitted that he would offer any op- position.
 The objection made to the present consideration of MT. McKennas nom ination carries it over for only one day, but it is not yet decided whether the attempt to secure confirmation will be made tomorrow. The objection made to-day came from the Democratic side, and it is understood to have been die tated in part by a spirit of resentment to the wording of the Attorney -Gener- ars dispatch congratulating Senator Hanna upon his reelection to the Sen ate, which was as follows:
 WASHINGTON, Jan. 12.-Every- thing good in politics has triumphed with you. Congratulations.
 JOSEPH M'KENNA."
