MINERS MUST HAVE HELP.

Seattle, Wash, July 22-From the
steamer Brunswick's passengers. Just
arrived here from Alaska, it is learned
that passenger is on his way from

Twelve hundred people went into the

hundred succeeded in getting over the
snow last winter. Many died en- route.
There are now nearly 1000 people on
the shore of the sound waiting for a
chance to come home. No merchant
vessels will run to that district this
year, and the whalers which call in
there for fresh water, will not take
passengers.
= If the miners had the means of get
ting home it is doubtful if they could
buy their passage. Many of them have
been sick with scurvy and are going
to float down the several streams run
ming into the sound with the intention
of waiting for government help.

munched his Dutch rolls Captain Ma
han and Captain Crozier frequently ate
together, while the secretaries and en-
pioyees of the delegation occupied an
other table. The elaborate respect
which delegates from other countries
showed to the Americans was much
greater than the careful courtesy which
men of their stamp would naturally
exhibit toward each other.
The Russian would bow pleasantly
to the German delegates, but nothing
more, and vice versa. When, however
either passed the American delegates
or met them in the smoking room, the
salute was sure to be not only pleas
ant but profound.
The Americans went to The Hague
instructed to try to bring about a
permanent board, of arbitration made
up of members of the state depart

the ABOLITION of privateering on the
high seas during war, the neutraliza-
ton of all floating propertyeowned by
private owners and not by belligerent
governments, and the measurement of
indemnity, not by the nations at war
fare, but by jury of the other ma
TONS How many Of these things were
accomplished will be definitely known
by the time this article is printed, for
this congress will probably have ad-
journed by then and the ocean tele-
graph will have told the story of its
closing work. But the inside tale of
how that work was done is never likely
to be told in full, although some inter-
eSting details can be given here.
The secrecy which was decided upon
and widely criticised was an absolute
necessity. The admission of working
representatives to the ses-
sions of the conference would undoubt-

the private gossip of the delegates,
came talk about sensational POSSIBLE
ity. 1t was very generally believed by
some that the actions of Spain during
the war with Cuba would be carefully
investigated by the conference and that
some of her violations of the accepted
rules of warfare would be proved by
testimony, which would form the basis
for new regulations. The fact that
Spanish officers, high in command, or
dered their troops TO fire on our Red
Cross flags, that attacks had been
made on our wounded as they were
taken from the battlefields. and that
the Red Cross flag had been used by
the Spaniards as a mask for their bat
terieS. was freely commented on. The
possibility that l myself might be
called as witness before one of the
subcommittee was early suggested by
two members of one of the European
delegations. The American delegation,
however, Immediately saw the inadvis-
ability of introducing any such note OF
discord into the conference, and it was
decided, in consequence, to avoid &C.
ton of any kind along these lines, al
though the delegates realized the ne
cessity of some comparatively imme-
date congress at which these matters
could be discussed. This it was that
gave rise to the announcement that a
second Geneva conference would be one
of the prompt results of the congress
at The Hague.
The work of the American delegates
was never finished. 1t began with the
rising of the sun and ceased not with
its going down. II was the impression
of many delegates, as well as laymen,
before the conference began. that the
gathering would be a junket. but the
preponderance of serious design among
the American, English and Russian del
egates became instantly apparent when
the conference met. The English and
American delegates had evidently gone
to The Hague with the dignified and
earnest intention of accomplishing
along the lines which the
car had laid down. The German dele
cation had as evidently gone there with
the first intention of preventing any
useful work in these directions. The
Russian delegation was, of course, de-
;irious of clarifying their ruler.

Events OF Single Year Made the Opinion of This Nations
Representatives the Most Important of All-Ineresting
Story of Peace Conference by Edward Marshall.

This article is the result of special
journey made to The Hague by. Ed
ward Marshall. the well known war
correspondent. Mr.. Marshalrs intro
auctions and close personal acquaint-
ance with the American delegates af-
for6ed him many facilities not offered
to other men who went TO the peace
conference to write 1t will be re-
membered that during the Spanish war
in Cuba he was so terribly wounded
that he has practically lost the use
of his limbs, and this journey to The
Hague (heroic, in the circumStances)
was the first important enterprise
which he has been able to undertake
since his dreadful experience on the
battlefield. He was admitted to the
Palace in the Woods through special
arrangements made by the Dutch gov
eminent, and was accompanied While
there by representative of HOLLANDS
little queen, while "a detail OF Dutch
soldiers was told off to give him such
physical assistance as was necessary
an getting about the building. During
his stay in The Hague he was photo
graphed at the special request of the
czar. Mr.. Marshalls wide experience
IN European correspondence, his broad
information and his personal acquaint-
ance with the delegates, make this
article Of more than ordinary value.
The Hague, July 6.-Every important
nation represented at the peace confer
ence, excepting only Germany, had a
war on its hands when its delegates
talked peace. The United States was
fighting in the Philippines, France was
fighting in Algeria, and had by no
means secured peace in Madagascar.
