in Lynn canal and 20 men who were on
board, are supposed to have persisted.
The Nevada left Skaguay for juneau
OF Feb ), and when the Islander,
which arrived at Comox this morning.
reached Juneau, the Nevada had not
arrived there. The day that she should
have reached Juneau fire was seen on
the waters of the canal and the opin-
ion is general that the flames were from
Il burning steamer. Whether the pas
sengers and crew reached land, or
whether they persisted, is not known.
il is feared that they met with death,
as there has been u terrible wind and
snow storm in the north and small
boats could hardly live. Captain 1rV-
ing. from the Islander, reports that the
weather has been terrific.
The Clara Nevada was formerly the
Hosler, which was built at Camden,
n. J., in 1872, for the United States
coast and geodetic survey service. Last
summer she was condemned by the
government for the reason that she
was out of date, and sold to the Pacific
and Alaska Transportation company,
who had her thoroughly overhauled be-
fore placing her on the Alaska line.
She was considered perfectly seawor-
thy.
The Clara Nevada is commanded by
Captain c. 3. Lewis and her crew con-
sists of IS men. The officers are Pilot
Ed Kelly; first officer, Smith; engineer,
David Reed; purser, Foster Beck; stew
art, O'Donnel and d clerk, George Rog-
ers.

out by Secretary Gage, is on the ques-
ton as to whether American goods
consigned to Alaskan ports from Seat
tie can be carried in American vessels
TO Victoria, a distance of only Y miles,
and at Victoria be put on British YES
sells to be carried TO Dyea about 900
miles. or to St Michaels, about 1000
miles. The treasury department has
ruled that this is violation of the
laws reserving the coasting trade TO
American vessels.
The policy of the United States, Sec
rotary Gage says. is to confine carry
ing by water ''of the whole voyage"
between American ports to American
vessels and section l, of the bill, is be-
lieved to explicitly affirm this policy
and remove all doubt.

New York. Feb. IA dispatch to the
Herald from Paris says:
What will be the upshot of the whole
business. is a question that may be
asked with some profit at this juncture
Of the lola trial. The gravest anxiety
obtains. and the Gaulois goes so far as
TO complain editorially that anarchy
prevails in the army in the law and in
the street." and calls upon NJ. Felix
taure to exercise his constitutional
power and put a stop to this state of
things.
lola WILL BE CONVICTED.
Henri Rochefort said:
"Iola viii be convicted. There is so
great a pressure of public opinion act
ing on the jury that one cannot ex-
pect anything but conviction. On the
other hand, ZOla does not seem to me
to be well defended, and his counsel
seems to be dragging the affair out as
long as possible. 1 don't think lola
will go to prison, nor do I think he will
be obliged TO pay q fine. After the
trial is over, its conclusions will be con-
S1dered by the court of cessation. But
supposing lola is acquitted, he will not
be able to show himself in public in
Paris, nor for that matter, anywhere in
France, without personal danger to
himself. He could not very well live
in Paris with a bodyguard continually
about him..
Ferdinand Xau of the formal, said:
GRAVITY OF THE SITUATION.
The extreme gravity of the situation
does not lie in the question of the culp-
ability or the innocence of Dreyfus, but
in the passions of the various parties.
The question tends to separate into two
camps, or better yet, into two sects, the
nation whose unity has been in force,
and which less than a century ago pro-
claimed the rights of man-that is TO
say. liberty of opinion as regards poll
tics and religion. That is why there is
reason to feel that if some grain Of
sense does not enter our heads,
If our politicians make use of our di-
visions as a spring-bOard during the
coming elections. and scatter hatred in
stead OF preaching appeasement and
or rather, reconciliation.
the question viii remain open, paralyZe
business and spread ruin and discOrd in
the country"
