The State Board Holds a Session at

LOS ANGELES, April S.-The State

The board accepted the gift of Mrs

lection of paintings, valued at S150,000

Jose, for which the citizens of that
city are asked to raise $4,000. The
collection is to be used in the School

The selection of a Principal for the
San Diego Normal School was post
poned until the afternoon session.
The board was reassembled at 5
o'clock, but at $3.50 it was announced
that no selection had yet been made OF
a Principal for the San Diego Normal

Gus behind closed doors during the noon

1t was afterwards announced that the
contest had narrowed down to Profess
sor C. F. Meredith, Principal of the

There is no part of the island so far

These harbors are not all of sufficient
depth to permit of the entrance of large
ocean going steamers, but they are
ADEQUATE for the small vessels that are
engaged in the coasting trade of the
seaboard If the Cuban people are sue
cessful in achieving their inedepderee,
whether with the aid of the United
States or without and if the authority
and minions of Spain are forever with
drawn from the island, the almost pro-
hibitory tariffs on the American trade
will doubtless be removed and every
encouragement given to the introduc-
ton of American enterprises and meth
DDS of business. Presumably immigra-
ton will be encouraged, and Americans
will find a new field Of profit and in

ficiently stable to render secure life and

including Senior CASTELAR,, General Az

1t was the almost unanimous opinion

The only voice raised against an 9TH

in the probability of war, for the sim
pie reason that / am sure Senior Sagas-

STEAMSHIP RATE WAR.
Big Cuts Made in Fares to Alaskan
Points.

SAN FRANCISCO, April S.-A gem
eral cutting Of steamship rates to
Alaska has begun. The companies OPP
Grating steamers plying between this
city, Seattle and Alaskan ports have
reduced their rates considerably One
vessel, which sailed for Dyea yester-
day, carried passengers to that place
for $50 and $50, the former rate being
$62 and $40 This cut was made to
meet the scale of prices offered by
Seattle companies.
Fares from San Francisco to Copper
City are reduced from $100 and $40 to
$50 and $50; from Seattle to Copper
City, from $50 and $40 to $40 and $50;
from San Francisco to Cooks Inlet
from S105 and $50 to 500 and $65, and
from Seattle to Cooks Inlet from 500
and $40 to S15 and 500
1t is expected that business will i'm
prove when the trade to St Michael
opens up, but the most sangune do
not anticipate a return to the old
rates. In view of the large number
of vessels engaged in the trade, a still
further reduction is anticipated before
very long.

WASHINGTON, April S.-The mem
bers OF the Ways and Means Commit
tee of the House are busily engaged
with the treasury officials in the WORK
preliminary to the drafting of wax
revenue measure to be introduced IN
Congress Immediately upon opening
hCstilities with Spain. An increase in
the internal revenue tax on beer from
81 to 81 barrel and a large increase
in the tax on manufactured tobacco,
including cigars and cigarettes, has
been practically agreed upon. Bank
checks, bills of exchange, drafts. deeds,
mortgages and other paper of this
class patent medicines and nostrums,
in all probability also will be added
! to the list
A rough estimate Of the receipts to
be derived from these sources is that
the increase on these articles alone
will approximate, if not exceed, S10O,-
! 000 600 year. Beer it is thought
will produce an increase of $35,00O,-
! COO manufactured tobacco an increase
of S333 ,C0000 or more, and commercial
paper and patent medicines S33,00O,-
| 000.
| Another source of revenue which it
! is certain to be availed of is transac-
! tions III railroad and other listed
stocks 1t is believd that the returns
! from this source will be large. In all
! the figuring SO far the remaining in
dustries and the professions which were
/ taxed for strictly war revenues dur
ing the rebellion have been left out
| of the account. An increase of from
| two to three cents On letter postage
and a tax on gas and electric light has
also been suggested to the department.
! but these items have not yet been
considered. The increase of one cent
an ounce on letter postage would prob
ably augment the receipts by $30,GD.-
eco a year
A bill providing for a temporary loan
| of 800, ,G00,000 and a permanent loan
of 5000 100000 at 3 per cent. payable
in coin, has been prepared by the Ways
/ and Means Committee, and will be i'm
mediateIy introduced in case of war.
The whole question of finances Of
| the Government in view of prObabl"
hcstilities is being carefully considered

operations may be at the disposal OF
Congress in case of need.

THE HORROR GROWS IN MAGNI


SKAGUAY (Alaska), April 4 (via
Victoria. b. c., April 9.-The horror
of the Chilcoot trail is growing in mag
nitude hourly. AS the work of rescue
proceeds it becomes more apparent that
many more lives We're lost than az
first thought possible 1t is now be-
heved that between fifty and 100 men
and women were killed by the ava
lanche Many bodies viii never be re-
covered until the summer sun melts
the tons of snow and ice that now bury
them from sight
Two or three thousand men are now
working in relays of as many as can
stand side by side shCveling away the
debris in search of the dead and dying.
Twenty-Five dead bodies have been re-
covered and identified, and twenty five
have been taken out alive.
Seventeen employees of the Chilcoot
Railway and Tram Company who went
up to the summit on the morning OF
the slide to work are missing. and it
is feared that they are among the lost.
1t is. estimated that 10090 tons of
outfits are buried under the snow and
ice. There were several smaller slides
before the death-dealing avalanche was
started. About a. m. in the morning
small slide occurred, which buried
several cabins. An alarm was spread
and many people were endeavoring to
work back to Sheep Camp when the
big disaster occurred. The snowstorm
was binding, and the crowds were
coming down by the aid of a rope when
overtaken.
The exact location of the slide is
given at two and one-half miles above
Sheep Camp, and 100 yards above the
Oregon Improvement Company's pow
er-house. Here an immense gorge rises
at very steep incline into the hills,
and it was down this the avalanche
came.
The telephone office here has been
thronged all day and night with friends
anxious to get some word of friends be-
lieved to have been in the disaster. The
wires are working we'll, and informa-
tion is received here direct from the
scene as rapidly as it is gathered.
Many people have gone from this
city and Dyea to Sheep Camp to aid
i'll the work of rescue. 1t is believed
that when the full returns are in the
dead will number nearer leo than 80.
The slide covered the trail for several
hundred yards, to a depth of fifty feet
III many places. 1t has effectUalIy
blocked travel for the present, and it
will be some time before it can be re-
Sumed

SKAGUAY (Alaska), April 3.-Via
Seattle, Wash, April Sat about noon
to-day on the Chilkoot trail, between
the Scales and Stone House, at least
thirty-one men met death, and a large
number of others were injured more or
less seriously in a snoWslide. The dead
were crushed under an avalanche of
snow and ice which came down from
the mountain side upon the left hand
side of the trail about midway between
the Scales and Stone House. Fully
fifty people were overtaken by the slide.
and are either buried in the snow or
scattered along the borders Of the ava
lanche in a more or less injured condi-
ton.

The point at which the accident oc-
CURED is some five miles from Sheep
Camp. The nearest telephone station
is four miles distant. The Scales are
some five miles above Sheep Camp. The
telephone wires at this point were car
ried away by the slide. This fact
makes it difficult to obtain particulars
at this time.
a binding snow storm was raging all
day upon the summit, and as a conse-
quence many of those in the vicinity
were making no attempt to travel. Ze-
barth. Sprague and Stevenson were
travelling together as partners, and
were found side by side in bed.
Thousands of people were encamped
in the vicinity of the accident at the
time, and were soon rendering such as
sistance as was possible. Upon receipt
of the news points below Dyea tele-
phoned up to know if assistance was re-
CURED, and received answer TO the
effect that 500 people were at work
upon the debris and were only in each
others way.
All day Saturday and Sunday a
southerly storm, with chinook winds,
rain and snow prevailed in this vicinity,
and it is believed the softening of the
snow on the mountain side by those
agencies was the cause of the avalanche.
The quantity of snow and ice that came
down in the slide is estimated at thous-
ands of tons. 1t swept directly across
the trail, which, Notwithstanding the
fact that the weather was unsuitable
for travel, was thronged with way
farers The last vestige of the trail in
the vicinity was wiped out of existence
and where it led is now mountain OF
snow and ice under which are many
dead bodies that cannot be recovered for
days TO come.
There was a preliminary slide at
o'clock in the morning People were
digging out their goods when the sec.
ond slide occurred about noon.
