CRUISE, AROUND THE HORN.
Fleet of Golfers Will Accompany the
Oregon and Iowa.

Washington, Sept. 12.-The navy de-
partment is shifting some of the officers
of the battleships Oregon and Iowa,
preparatory to their departure from
New York on their long cruise to San
Francisco, by way of the straits of
Magellan. The department has selected
from among the fleet of Golfers ac-
quired during the war four of the best
and largest TO accompany the battle
ships on their long run. These are the
Cassius. Scindia. Alexander and Aber-
endia, and their coal capacity is suf-
fcient to insure g full supply for thel
big battleships as we'll as for them
selves without subjecting the fleet to
take on coal on account of the techni-
cal existence of a state of war between
the United States and Spain. No at
tempt is to be made to drive the big
ships SO IS to equal the famous run
of the Oregon coming eastward. the
need for the ships on the Pacific side
not being so pressing as to warrant
mourning the risk of injuring the
boilers or machinery by keeping up
full speed.
1t is expected that the battleships
with their Golfers will be able to start
from New York about the end of this
month.

JUDGE COOLEY PASSES AWAY
DISTINGUISHED JURIST DIES
AT ANN ARBoR.
Had Been Failing In Mental Ability
and His Death Had Been Expected
For Weeks Past.

Ann Arbor, Mich, Sept. 12.-Judge
Thomas NJ. Cooley, the noted jurist and
constitutional lawyer, died early today
at his home. Three months ago he re-
turned from a private sanitarium at
Flint, Mich, where he had been treated
chiefly for mental weakness. He was
then so. much improved in mental
health that he was able to recognize
acquaintances. He realized his. weak
physical condition and his failing abili-
ty, and often expressed a wish that
death would come. Several weeks ago
he relapsed into a comatose condition.
During the ensuing interval the only in
telligible utterance he made was once,
when he inquired for his eldest son.
His demise had been expected for
weeks past.

TROUBLES OF GOLD-SEEKERS
A THOUSAND VICTIMS AT KoT.
zEBUE SOUND.
Not a Dollars Worth of Gold Has
Been Found-Waiting For a
Chance to Leave.

Port Townsend, Wash. Sept. 12.-W. G.
Strong. who arrived here today from st.
Michaels on the steamer Garonne. says
that the Garonne sighted considerable
wreckage west of Unamik pass. The
wreckage appeared to be that of a schoon-
err but 10 marks of Identification We're
FOUND.
NJ. Strong says that Kotzebue sound
has proven to be another source of disap-
poinJment. Misfortune has been the lot
of a large number of prospectors who
were lured TO that section by stories of
its golden wealth Parties just from
there report most distressing conditions
of affairs Not one dollars worth of gold
has been found and LOCO men are camped
on the beach, awaiting an opportunity 10
get away. Nearly as many more are in
the mountains working their way to the
beach to secure transportation out
Forty thousand dollars worth of supplies
are piled on the beach and being offered
for sale but purchasers cannot be found.
There are several small schooners in the
sound which will soon sail, bringing all
they can accommodate. 1t is thought
that gold exists at the headwaters of the
streams emptying into kotzebue, but
these streams are not navigable for
canoes, and the mountains are almost i'm
Dassable. One or TWO expeditions have
been organized to reach the headwaters
of the streams, but they will go up the
Koukuk river and cross the divide on the
snow this winter.
Among the arrivals today from st.
Michaels is a party consisting of W. H
Buckins. F. ]. Benskin, NJ. T. Mier, e. E.
Markley and j. ]. Hamm, of Canton, o.
This party took 40-foot steam launch
to ST. Michaels to be used in transporting
their supplies up the Yukon river and also
in prospecting various streams. On Aug.
1S, just before they were to start up the
river, a severe storm visited st. Michaels
wrecking the craft, which. together with
two years outfit, went to the bottom
the partysto return. The same
storm wrecked several other small crafts
and huge wave carried a large stern
wheel steamer belonging TO a Pennsyl-
vania company high and dry on the beach.

Again, the Committee say, such

expressly requested by the Chief
Justice, who, uuder the present
system, supervises the compila-
ton of the decisions of said Court
with the direct assistance of the
Chief Clerk. And as long as no
recommendation to such new pro.
ceeding has been requested by the
Supreme Court, no good reasons
for the passage of the bill can be
seen.
The bill provided that the Chief
Justice of the Supreme Court
should appoint come competent
person to be the reporter of the
Decisions of the Supreme Court.
1t would have been the duty Of
such reporter to prepare reports
OF all decisions OF the Supreme
Court and cause the same to be
published in bound volumes from
time to time as directed by the
Chief Justice, and to prepare such
reporis under the supervision of
the Chief Justice; each report to
contain the full opinion or

head notes, also synopsis of the
briefs of counsel if any should
have been filed in the case; and
each volume so published contain
