OFFICIALS ORDERED BACK
Had Crossed from Alaska Into Al
legged British Territory

Skaguay, Feb. 4, via Victoria, Feb. g.
Officers P. NJ. Hoyt and Hector Mclean,
while conveying liquors from here to Log
Cabin, were arrested at Log Cabin last
Monday, charged with crossing into Brit
in Columbia while serving in an official ca
pacity. The two men were held prisoners
for twenty-four hours and brought before
Captain Cartright, acting magistrate, who,
after telling them it was a violation of the
British Columbian law for American Of
ficials to convey goods through TO Log
Cabin and that the boundary line was at
Summit and not at Log Cabin, released
them. Captain Cartright further threat
ened to arrest every American officer COM
ing over the summit line while conveying
liquors, and If necessary would place Of
fcers at the summit to stop them. 1t is
reported that Canadian officials have de-
cided to order the American officials now
stationed at Log Cabin TO move across the
summit line. This will greatly cripple the
collection of American duties. Deputy Col
lector OF Customs c. L. Andrews of Skag-
way. has written Peele, deputy collector
Of Canadian customs, that he would here
after hold all liquors and forbid any fur
Their conveys until the official boundary
was settled. He has also sent to Wash
ington and Sitka for instructions in the
matter.

NINE BELOW ZERO
Was Point Reached By the
Thermometer Yesterday,
COOLEST IN FOUR YEARS
Wind from North Has Blown
Since First of Year.

The long siege Of cold northerly winds
days III this city has been aSrecord-breaker
in the annals of weather statistics for
years. The continuous bitter weather has
been accompanied by winds which have
been from the north, northeast and north
west and have prevailed since the begin
ming of the year and part of the time
for two days previous to January LIST.
When Dr.. Johnson. weather observer,
was questioned yesterday by a reporter
for the Eagle as to the past records COW
ering the number of days in which the
wind had continued to blow from north
erly direction. he said: The last few
days has been an unusually long period.
though in February of last year there was
a record of eleven days, with the excep-
ton Of one day. and when such con-
ditions exist the temperature will not go
down" He also stated that there were
twelve days in the same month when the
wind blew in a southwesterly direction all
the time. He said: The wind which has
been blowing from the north and the low
temperature which has existed all over
the country are both due to the very high
barometer that has prevailed over the
northwest all this time and a low pres
sure over the Gulf Of Mexico, causing a
drift OF the air from the north Where
the pressure is high, the temperature is
low, due to the descent of air from the
cold upper regions to the surface. when
it flows off in all directions toward lower
pressure
Where the pressure is low the tempera-
ture is high and there is an ascending cur
rent Of air from the surface earth to the
upper regions. The circulation of the at
mosphere from the upper to the lower re-
gions is the cause Of the continual long
weather Of twelve cold days. The high
barometer or pressure causes cold weather
and the low pressure warmer weather
Yesterday in Wichita the lowest degree
of temperature was below zero and is
the coolest it has been in years. In Feb
ruary of 1895. it was 13 degrees below
zero on the 7th and for fifteen days in
the temperature went below 10
above and in the same year there were
twenty-five successive days when the tenn
perature went below 20 above.
Yesterday it was IS degrees warmer In |
Helena, Montana, than in Wichita and |
was due to two causes of differences in |
pressure and also due to the Chinook |
winds in Helena, Montana, the winds COM
ing from the Pacific ocean.
Snow began falling lightly about S:45
last night and was falling in 1urries when
the Eagle went to press at 4:3O a. m.
At an early hour this morning the tenn
perature was degrees above zero in front

STAND BY WICHITA
Lew HamiIton's Advice to
People of Peerless Princess.
SEES THE IMPROVEMENT
Buys Property Near Linwood
Park, This City,

Lev Hamilton, now a resident OF St.
Joseph, but for many years one of the
leading men of Wichita, was in the city
yesterday, where he completed the pur-
chase of some property near Linwood park,
where he already has some holdings.
In speaking OF Wichita as it now ap-
paers to him, he said 10 a reporter for
the Eagle yesterday: wichita looks bet
ter than it has for ten years. I can plainly
see that it is going ahead, and have noted
a world of evidence bearing on that point
The fascination which Wichita exercises
over its people is not new to me, and 1t
has endured so lorg because it has the
elements of truth behind it to make the
fascination permanent. Wichita is a. fas-
cinating city; it is a beautiful city to live
IN. Take its mild climate, its beautiful
drives, it's perennially splendid roads, its
trees and its Open-handed, open-hearted
way of doing things, and its composite
characteristic becomes charming. 1 be-
Ieve it for fact that Wichita, with its
1ow-priced products and its low rents, is
the cheapest place in which to live in the
country, together with all it's other advan-
tages. That is why you have so many
commercial travellers. Five hundred.
Think of fl
Your wholesalers are making monev,
and ] am glad to See new firms coming in,
and the old ones building them permanent
homes. Your retailers are all doing finely
and are growing. The prospects are very
bright
"One thing you ought to mention more
than you do. That is the new park. You
cannot realize possibly how great benefit
that park viii be to the whole city-what
superior advantage it viii be and how it
will draw people into the city which pos
sesses it. The park should be pushed and
She moving spirits in the enterprise upheld
and encouraged in their work.
''All Wichita has to do is to stick t.
gether Wichita people should buy Of
Wichita people. The retailers should Pat |
ronize the Wichita wholesalers. Sticking !
together is the first requisite in upbui.ding |
the town, and Wichita should practice it |
70 4 finish.
81 have never sold any of the property /
I had after the ending of the boom, and I
an not complaining. I am perfectly sat
isfied with my holdings, because I have
perfect faith in the future greatness Of the
city"
Mr.. Hamilton left last night for his home
tn St. Joseph, where he is a successful |
and leading manufacturer.
