"NEWSY'S" KL0NDIKE TRIi
EXPERIENCES OF CHICAGO
NEWSBOY IN THE ALASKAN
GOLD FIELDS
Papers Months Old Sold for $1.5O
Each-Enterprising Youth Made
Fortune Spent Money Law
ishIy,

An odd character drifted into the city
yesterday in the person Of John Carmody,
boy of eighteen years old who is we'll
known on the Pacific coast as the
''K1ondike Newsboy." He had come
from Chicago, stealing his way on pas
senger trains, and is on his way back
to Alaska in search of gold and excite
ment He is a slim, pale-faced boy and
his countenance bears marks of many
experiences with and in the world, in
spite of his lack of years. He told his
own story in very interesting manner
and produced credentials signed by Capt
G. G. Clybouradi, captain of the Seattle
port st. Michael steamer Caronne, and
certified to by Joaquin Miller, bearing
date of Juna 4, 1898.
When I was in the city last on my re-
turn from the Klondike," said he. .I
stopped at the Ryan hotel and had 81 900
In gold dust with which to pay my way.
This was last summer, and now I am
here again. This time I am stopping at
a cheap lodging house and haven't got
a cent except little money that I have
turned in one way and another.
L went to Alaska last spring as
stowaway on the Caronne. I took with
me 1,2oO copies Of Chicago, st. Paul, Mil
waukee, Detroit and New York papers,
which 1 bought before leaving, and when.
L
Summit and then to Circle City I had
great luck and sold every sheet that 1
had brought with me for $15O each
When the papers were gone, I blacked
boots for fifty cents a shine and turned.
a good deal of money. Then I worked
for while at $12 a.day in a restaurant
In DAWSON That was too hard for me
and had to quit as the days work was
sixteen hours long and no rest between.
times. Everybody paid in dust and
money was as easy as air.
'In Dawson, the. same conditions pre-
vailed, but it was not nearly so pleasant
The miners are all jolly good fellows, and
used me in the kindest manner, but Daw-
son was filled with toughs and gamblers
who went there to do the miners, and
fights and shooting scrapes were of daily
occurrence. Everybody carried gun
and there was saloon called Back the
Blood" which was hell on earth
peddled oranges there for a dollar each.
Girls are in demand. A restaurant girl
could earn $50 month without trouble
and all kinds of labor was at premium.
when I got to Seattle a friend Of
mine will stake me to enough to pay for
a stock of papers and then I will repeat
the process When I came out last year
I had $500, but / spent 500 in Seattle
before coming on east. I shall beat my
way and earn enough to live on by black
ing boots or peddling, or selling papers
I'll get along all right.
''1've got a scheme that's a good one to
win out on. I'm going to buy 200 pounds
of popcorn in Seattle and sell it in Daw-
son at 25 cents sack. Last wear there
was great demand for it. though there
was very little to be had.''

prisoners at Havre for eleven days, while
others. starting from the coast later
were in the blockade from several days to
week During the delay the travellers
were taken care of by the railroad In
the most comfortable manner possible
under the circumstances. Most Of them
made their temporary homes in the Sleep
ers and coaches, and were supplied with
meals on the cars. Those who had sleep
ing berths Jared comparatively WELL but
owing to the crowded rtains all could not
be thus provided for, and passengers say
that some had to be content with ac-
commodation in the day coatches. The
feeding Of the passengers was, owing to
their numbers, accomplished with some
difficulty, and the dining car crews were
busy lot Almost throughout each day
the dining cars were continuously filled.
AS soon as one lot of passengers had
been satisfied another lot filed in. In this
manner it was quite like one long meal to
the car crew, inasmuch as by the time
the last consignment had eaten break
fast the first to have been served were
ready for dinner. On the whole, however,
everyone made the best of a bad bar
gain, and remained in general content
| ment, cherishing the consolation that
would be theirs when once more on their
journey.
Among the passengers on the third spe-
cial to arrive was Miss Orley Harkins,
of Faribault, Mimi, who accompanied
the remains Of her sister. Mrs. Wilson,
from Seattle. Miss Harkins was delayed
at Havre for week. The body of Mrs.
Wilson was taken care of in the baggage
car. The remains had been emblamed,
consequently did not suffer through the
delay. Miss Harkins was met here by
her brother. L. D. Harkins yesterday
morning With the remains of Mrs<Wil-
son. Miss Harkins and Mr.. Harkins left
yesterday for Faribault. Another body
also arrived on the first special
The majority of the passengers were
bound for points further east and many
of them remained on the trains until
hours when satisfying meals and the
comforts of a dining room could be had
at the hotels. Others, however left the
coaches Immediately upon their arrival
Most Of the travellers left during the dayf
and last evening for the East
The sudden arrival of so many passen-
gers at once caused a furry at the union
depot baggage room and until late in the
day the employees were busy transferring
trunks, chests and sample cases. Five
big truck loads Of baggage each con-
tanning as many as twenty-five trunks
stood ranged along the depot platform
at one time during the day Everything
In connection with the belated passengers
was Strengthened out by evening.
The two regular Great Northern trains
scheduled to leave this city for the coast
yesterday went out on time.

Week - Were Furnished Meals

Railroad Company The Train
Came In In Three Sections
What One of the Passengers Says.

More than 300 Great Northern passen-
gers, who were blockaded en- route East
from the coast by the floods IN Montana,
arrived in st. Paul during the early hours
OF yesterday morning. All were thankful
that there enforced detention at the lit
tie town Of Havre, Mont, where the
ravages Of the flood made further travel
from the West impossible, was at an end.
Everything possible for the comfort of
the passengers was done by the railroad,
but such numbers of travellers. all anxious
to reach their different destinations, rath-
er interfered with the pleasure Of such a
gathering under other conditions.
The special trains came in section at
a time. the first section pulling into the
union depot at 1886 a. m. Twenty minutes
later the second section arrived, and by
o'clock the last section was under the
sheds. By the arrival of the specials it
was believed that the blockade had been
finally raised. A spur track is said to
either have been built or is in process of
construction about the flooded district in
Montana so that from now on, notwith-
standing the water, Great Northern
trains, 1t is reported. will make the
through overland trip on time.

we are Informed that during the His

of annexation, together with an EXCHANGE
OF commercial privileges. The United
states replied that the proposal was pre-
mature, especially In view of the uncer-

regard the request. Later on Germany
asked the United States not to annex the

NEW YORK, April 21-Capt. ]. B.
Coghlan and his officers of the United
States cruiser Raleigh were entertained
at the Union League club tonight.
Capt. Coghian was called upon to
speak. He accepted and before conclud-
ing told this story of his admiral:
AN officer of our friend, Admiral Won
Diedrich came down one day to make
complaint. 1t was my pleasure to step
out on the quarterback Just as he came
aboard. 1t was partly by accident and
partly by design. heard him tell the ad-
miral about his complaint and L heard
the admiral reply:
= Tell your admiral those ships of his
must stop when I say so. 1 wish to
make the blockade of this harbor COM
plete.'
The German officer replied: But we
fly the flag
The reply of the admiral was Just
like Dewey. He said:
Those flags can be bought at a half
a dollar a yard. anywhere
There was no fun in that expression of
the admiral. He told the officer that any
one could fly a German flag, and that a
whole Spanish fleet might come up on
him with German flags up. Then he drew
back and stroked his mustache He has
great habit of strol1ing his mustache
when he gets mad He said:
Tell your admiral 1 am blockading
here. Now note carefully what I say, and
tell your admiral that I say it. I have
been making this blockade as easy for
everybody as 1 could, but I am getting
tired Of the puerile work here 1t has
been of such a character that a man
would net notice it although children
might fight over it, but the time has come
when it must stop. Tell your admirar that
the slightest infraction of any rule will
mean-but one thing. That will be war. 1t
Will be 50 accepted and resented imme-
diately. If your people are ready for
war with the United States they can have
IT at any time.'''
