SEATTLE, Jan. 27.-The steamship

that number of Copper River pros
pectors lost their lives in Valdez Gla-
cier The following are known to have
pertshed:
HENRY KROHN, New York City.
= SMITH, Chicago, Ill.
= EMERSON, Baldwin, Wis.
=: HENDERSON. Wisconsin.
GEORGE SWEESEY, New York
City.
Among the badly frozen miners are:
..George Poalowitz, New York City.
= sylvester Crane, st. Joseph. Mo.
H. Emerson, Baldwin Wis.
There are six men at Valdez suffer
ing from frozen feet, hands and faces.
Quite a. hospital has been established
at=Twelve- mile Camp, on the other side
of the glacier, and some fifteen men are
suffering there from the same cause.
All were frozen trying to cross the
.giacier, but managed to get back into
camp.
:. The freezing of the Emersons, father
and son, was particularly sad. They
started for Valdez, but on getting well
toward the summit of the glacier, found
their feet freezing. BoIn started back.
The son gave his father some extra
TyraPpings for his feet, and. as a re-
suit, froze both legs in a few minutes.
and was unable to proceed. He bade
his father good-by and compelled him
TO move on without him. Then the
boy lay down in the snow to die. His
body probably will never be recovered.

TO live.
Smith and Krohn were members of
the same party, in company with
. George Poalowitz, Sylvester Crane and
several others. They started across
the glacier early in December. Smith
was the first to freeze his feet. After
they had crossed the summit and were
moving down the long stretch toward
Valdez his strength begG1 TO fail. At
last he could keep up no longer. Call
ing his companions around him, he
told them he was doomed, even if they
got him into camp, and that they must
.fry and save themselves. Telling them
to tell his wife and children back in
Chicago how he died, he lay down in
the snow, soon to be lulled into last
sleep by deadly frost. He was a Jew
eler by trade.
and die ,,hen the trip was almost at an
end. His comrades forced him to keen
moving in spite of the pain of his bad
" frozen feet, and at last got him into
Valdez. His toes were so badly frozen
that they fell off when his boots were
CIT away. Blood poisoning set in soon
afterward, and in ten days the miners
buried him in a rough grave. He was
q member of the Manhattan Mining
Company of New York, and leaves a
widow and a family somewhere in that
great city.
The third man of this party to lose
his life was a miner named Henderson.

WHY DID HE DO Ir2

The most-talked of event in political
circles, just now, is the buying OF the
democratic nomination for Governor OF
Ohio, by MIR. John r.. Mclean, whose
actual residence is in Washington, but
who has large property interests in
Ohio corporations, and who IS also the
owner and nominal editor of the Gin
cinnati Enquirer. Republicans, includ-
ing President Mckinley, do not regard
the nomination of Mclean as an i'm
portant factor in the gubernatorial
campaign, because they believe that it
has been from the dav OF the nominG-
tion of Judge Nash by the Republican
convention OF Ohio, only n question OF
how large n majority he would be
given-there has never been and is not
now the slightest doubt of his election.
But the Bryan democrats are in almost
q state of panic. They do not trust
Mclean. They believe that he has
secured this nomination as part OF
the plot to defeat Bryan for the demo-
cratic Presidential nomination, next
year. They are too badly frightened
to talk publicly, but among themselves,
they are talking as hard as they can,
and the wires have been kept hot with
messages to the Bryan leaders, and to
Mr.. Bryan himself, containing plans
to head off McLean's ambition. That
Mr.. Mclean is multi millionaire
everybody knows, but why he should
be willing to spend any portion of his
millions to get the empty honor OF a
democratic nomination for Governor OF
Ohio, the Vice-Presidency, or even
Presidency, is something beyond the
comprehension of ordinary mortals.
But he has already made a start in
lavish expenditures for very empty
honor, and that is what is worrying
the Bryanites.
