sary ON Account OF the Crowded COndl-
tion 0f the Tramp ,rts.

New YORK, Jan. ej.-A dispatch to
the New York World from Washing
ton says: General Miller's expedition
has landed on Guimaras island, three
miles from l.oi without opposition,
according to a disp .tch received by
the War departm. .nt from General
Otis in Manila.
Landing was necessary because of
the crowded cond tion of troops on
the transports. Experience has proved
that soliiers lost spirit and fighting
qualities whea confined long on board
ship, so the War department asked
General Otis to ascertain it it was
possible for General Miller to land his
expedition near Iloilo. He cabled
that it was and was then instructed to
order landing.
sit was-deemed inadvisable to have
this expedition return to Manila with
out having landed, because it was
feared the natives Of Luzon would
think the Filipinos at lio.lo had re-
pulsed the Americans
1.-The Presidents policy Of paci6ca-
tion will be continued and no attempt
to land at Iloi4o will be made at pres
ent. The island on which the men
have landed ia healthy aud has an
abundance of water"
General Miller and his transports,
laden with American sol.lisrs, have
been waiting oil Iloilo since January
2. nearly three weeks Only day or
two before General Rios, commanding
the Spanish forces 1T Iloilo, had sur
rendered to the insurgents
Miller had conference with the in
surgent leaders, aud demanded the
surrender Of the city, but the demand
was refused, and Miller, accor ing ia
the reports then sent out, prepared to
land his troops The next day the
Filipinos agreed to permit American,
to land unarmed Meanwhile, Gen
eral Otis. in command at Manila, was
ordered from Washington to direct
Miller to use oil means to prevent q
clash, and as the first move to post
pone landing. Thus the matter has
stood until the reported landing or
the island.
Since Miller's arrival he has been
reinforced with the Petrol and Con
cord, and guns have been mounted or
the transports. The baltimore wa'
there before him.

Mr.. Lewis got the floor. Mr. Lewis
made the bill the text for general
attack on army and navy contractors,
whom he charged with being traitors
for taking advantage Of the necessities
Of the government in tim. of stress.
Mr. Simpson, the Kansas Popu.ist,

one of the wittiest speeches. ridicul.
ing the Ohioan for his alleged preten.

Mr.. Grosvenor did not deign to
make an extensive rejoinder, though

ORIGIN OF THE kLoNDIkE GOLD

iainly strange that streams flowing In we'll
nigh opposite directions, and yet rising
within very short distances of one another,
should be % largely charged with gold,
unless they have obtained II from a COM
mon source; nor can the fact. as received
and reported by most miners, but OF the
full import OF which I have not yet fully
made up my mind. that the different
streams carry different Classes OF gold, be
argued away az having no significance In
this connection. Claim holders profess at
most times TO be able TO distinguish be-
tween Eldorado gold and that OF bonanza,
between the gold OF Bonanza and that of
Hunker or Dominion, and 80 on: and there
Is no question that marked differences
In color and In the contours OF the coarse

a distinctiveness that Is largely Its own.
and hardly follows the gold az the rest

true OF the gold of Skookum hiil In Its re-
