A TALE OF HORROR.

Chicago, July "A special to the
Chronicle from Portland, Ore, says:

BUSINESS in a letter received here yes
terday by Captain Hans Stevenson
The writer, Olaf Jorgenson, depicts a
condition without parallel. He with
two other sailors sailing from Stock
holm, Peter Martin and August Oh
sen, together with 20 others went to
the kotzebue country last September
from Seattle. The letter includes one
to Jorgenson's mother in Stockholm
which Martin, in some rounda bout
manner succeeded in mailing at st.
Michaels, where he is now lying at the
point of death, unable to give an ac-
count OF what he and his fellow pros
pectors suffered. Jorgenson's letter to
his mother must have been written
some days before he penned his letter
to Svenson as 1t is more lucid.
After explaining how he and his col
leagues separated from the rest of the
argonauts and went prospecting on
their own account with dogs and sleds,
Jorgenson told how they got lost in the
most inhospitable region on earth in
December last. The greater part of
their provisions We're stolen by wild
beasts and by January they had moth
ing left but few sides of bacon.
Hunger also stalked among u.s."
added Jorgenson, and you have not
even faint idea what it means among
a gang of hopeless men, desperate in
the extreme. A dozen of my party died
in so days and we then began 10 cast
lots for healthy human flesh There
are only four of us alive, but all too
weak to travel excepting Martin, who

relief. But l suppose the latter will
be too late"
The writer says that only a few days
before he discovered a large nest of
nuggets peering out of the frozen
ground in his tent. but he turned from
the gold in disgust
Captain Svenson stated this evening
that it would be useless to send relief
to Jorgenson in the unknown Kotzebue
country, as he and his companions
must be dead by this time.

OTIS IN WASHINGTON.
Active Operations Cannot BE Begun
Until December.

Until December.
Washington, July 2.-~Genenal Harri-
son Gray Otis of California, who has
seen considerable active duty in the
Philippines, arrived to-day in Wash
ington. His visit to the East is en-
tirely on private business, and, the gen.
e1al said tonight, has no connection
directly or indirectly with Philippine
affairs. General Otis has nothing but
praise for the manner in which Major
General Otis has managed the cam
paign against the insurgents in the
Philippines. The volunteers, though
not enlisting to fight against the Fill
pinos, have accepted the situation like
true Americans and have done their
work unccmplainingly. Said General
Otis:
AT the time that the hostilities be-
san our estimate was that the rebels
had about 10000 armed men. Our be-
lief now is that as a result of the ac-
tive work of the American forces this
number has been reduced fully 50 per
cent by reason of deaths, wounds and
desertions. The rebellious forces them
selves are becoming tired of the war
and in their present demoraiized state
one decisive victory of the American
forces would, / believe, have the effect
of bringing about peace. With 10000
men under General Otis, this can be
accomplished. II must be remembered,
however, that the dry season in which
active campaigning may be resumed
does not begin until the first of De-
cember. This should be thoroughly un-
derstood by the American people so
that there may be no complaints mean
time of the inactivity of the forces un-
der the commanding general"

According to the story, while the
Panther was at San Juan in command
Of Capt. George c, ReiteT, the greater
portion of her crew rebelled against the

Some One Played Trick on the Gov

Louisville, July "A special to the
Courier-Journal from Lexington says:
Governor Bradley arrived here to-day
from Cincinnati with the information
that the call for 800 state troops

messages to him purporting to be from a
gentleman in Lexington in whom the gov
ernor had confidence. and message from
Frankfort, purportng to be from a state
officer. He was informed by the messages
that there was much trouble in Clay
county: that the Howards were surround

once many lives would be sacrificed. The
governor Immediately issued the order
for the troops to go to Clay county. Later

phone consultation with Adjutant General
Collier and Lieutenant Colonel Carter the
orders were revoked The governor says
he will do everything in his power to fix
the responsibility for the fake.

ha, Sioux City, neapolis and ST.
Paul 1t has just been learned that an
engineering expert of the Standard Oil
company was in Sioux City two days
last week Inspecting the lines and
property of the Sioux City Traction
company and it leaked out that he
came TO Sioux City from omaha, where
he spent four days on the same mi s.

Kansas City properties occupied eight
days. He went from Sioux City to
Minneapolis and now is either in that
city or St Paul. 1t was impossible to
learn the name of the expert, as great
secrecy is being maintained. From a
reliable source it was learned that the
report spoke in favorable terms of the
Kansas City and Omaha properties and
that he said the St. Joseph system was

MUST NOT orEN LETTERS.

In the past it has been the gen.
eral custom for prison authorities
to open all letters addressed to
prisoners in such institutions, and
to request prisoners to deliver let
ters to the warden unsealed before
sending them out. A recent or
der of the po office department,
however, will change this state of
affairs. The order says that let
ters addressed to prisoners in any
penal institution or asylum must
be delivered unopened.
In giving his opinion on the
point Judge Freeman, assistant
attorney for the department, says:
Where letters are addressed to
prisoners to the care of prison au-
thorities, it will of course, be pro-
per to deliver them to the warden
or other representatives of such
authorities, in the absence of con-
trary instruction from the person
addressed. But in all cases, no
matter what may be the charge
against the prisoner, or what the
nature of the confinement, letters
arriving at the office directed to
him, should be delivered only To
his order Having been thus de-
livered, the care of the govern
ment over them ceases. And il
it should occur that the municipal
authorities will not suffer prison
er TO receive his mail, and the
prisoner will not consent that such
mail shall be delivered to the au-
thorities, it may be delivered to a
party authorized by the prisoner
to receive it; or if no such person
shall have been designated, such
matter may be treated as undeliv-
erable But in no event should
such matter be delivered to any
one contrary to the wish of the
person addressed
