HARD TIMES AT DAWSON.
Business Far From Brisk and the Outlook
Discouraging.


San Francisco. March Ga letter
from Dawson City says: The first in
stallment of reindeer belonging to the
United States relief expedition arrived
home January in charge of the lap
land herders. The last days run was
sixty miles. Large numbers Of the
reindeer are said to have been slaugn-
tered by the Indians who mistook them
for wild game. The remnant will be
driven to Circle City. The business
outlook for Dawson during the year is
most unpromising. Hundreds of people
are migrating to more congenial chimes,
and the retail traders complain that
they have more outfits offered for sale
than purchasers. Even the saloons
and gambling houses are reported to be
making no profits. No new gold dis
coyeries of Importance are reported.

CUT THE JUNGLES.
New York, March GA dispatch
from Manila, dated at 10 a. m. to-day,
and printed in the Journal, reports
that the F'ilipinos made an attempt to-
day to capture the water works, six
= miles from Manila. The attack was
repulsed with a loss to the rebels CT
seventeen killed and many wounded
The Second Oregon and the First Ne
braska regiments were engaged. Two
Americans were wounded.
Washington, March 6.-There is
some reason to expect important news
from Manila within the next fortnight.
1t has developed that Gen. Otis has
practically completed his plans for
grand onslaught on the insurgents,
which is expected to deprive them of
offensive power at least. 1t is believ
ed that he will form a large portion of
his force into columns as soon as his
reinforcements are all at hand, and
will push these in parallel lines
out the insurgents in every direction
as the troops go forward. The Amerl
can troops are getting restless and
nervous under the petty but annoying
sharp shooting of the Filipinos, and
are so anxious to put a stop to this
that Gen. Otis has yielded to their de-
sire.
Forty-one thousand officers sand men
of the combined army and navy forces
comprise the approximate total Amer
lean strength now at, en- route and I'M
der orders for service at the Philippine
islands. No further reinforcements
are now in contemplation. The forces
of the two services stated now in or
about the archipelago consist of twenty
regiments of infantry, one engineer
battalion, seven troops of cavalry and
eleven batteries of artillery, an aggre-
gate of about 24,500 men. Nineteen
vessels, with an aggregate of 297 Off
GERS, 1890 men and 253 marines make
up the naval contingent. This is ex-
elusive of the transport Solace, with
1872 officers and men all told, which is
constantly passing back and forth from
Manila. There are about 1880 army
reinforcemer;s on the way to Manila,
making as rapid progress as possible,
and there are, roughly, $500 men in
the force under orders to proceed to
the Philippines. The following are at
Manila or Hong Kong under the COM
mand of Admiral Dewey:
Baltimore, Bennington, Boston, Buff
falo, Callao, Charleston, Concord, Gull
goa, Don Juan de Austria, Helena, Isla
de Luzon, Isla de Cuba, Manila, Monad-
mock, Monocacy, Monterey, Olympia,
Petrol and Yorktown. These vessels
carry 297 officers, 1890 sailors and 253
marines. The transport Solace does
not remain at Manila. The Castine
and Princeton are now on their way
through the Red Sea to join Admiral
Dewey, and the Oregon and her at
tendant vessel, the Iris, are travelling
through the Pacific to the same desti-
nation. The vessels will add to the
naval force at Manila SO officers, 739
men and 81 marines. The captured
ships Don Juan de Austria, Isla de
Luzon and Isla de Cuba are not avail
able for immediate service, as they are
In need of repairs. The Solace has
taken out a number of recruits and
with these the Isla de LuZon will be
manned. The Wheeling will join the
Manila fleet, but is not to be counted
as being available in the immediate
future.

navy he has had eight years and ak
months shore duty. and elght years

That was when tho laat register was

for peary has drawn salary during
