london Cannot Get From New York the
Gold That 1t Needs.
R. g. Dunn Sc Co. in their weekly
review of trade say:
July failures have been smaller than
in any month of which there is record
excepting May, and trading failures
smaller than in any other month.
Surprising contrasts are shown by COM
parsons of small with large failures in
different years and in no class of busi-
ness without some large failures not at
tributable to present influence. does the
aggregate equal the average of the past
six years. London again recognizes
the financial power of this country.
The Bank of England virtually admits
that 1t cannct draw from New York
the gold it needs; exchange moves to
the importing point; over $1,000, 900
starts from Sidney to gan Francisco.
London's net buying of stocks has been
40, 900 shares and bills against produce
to be shipped are very heavy.
This describes repetition ct finance
not unlike that in industries. Europe
Is searching for wool here at 80 cents
a pound, secured, and for pig iron at
$40 ton. A vast demand for both ma
terials has fallen upon the commercial
world which this county alone appears
able to meet for its own needs. Wool
shipments from Australia have been
surprisingly little below those of last
year, but Europe talks of wool fam
inc, while this country has on hand
years consumption or more, besides
this years clip, and prices are not yet
as high as they were in February of
last year, when stocKs were many mil
lion pounds larger.
Failures for the week have been 1879
the United States, against 1876 last
year, and % in Canada against 81 last
year.

WELCOMED HOME.
Portland Took . Holiday and We'll
coined the Second Oregon.


Portland, Aug. lathe Oregon vol
unteers came on three sections OF a
Southern Pacific train yesterday after
noon, arriving at the Union depot at 4
o'clock. A little more than an hour
later, they had turned their tattered
colors over to the state on Multnomah
field. General Summers had given his
last command, and all that remained
of the most gallant command that
fought in the Philippines was scat
tered three or four hundred bronzed
men in khaki suits.
Portland went wild in her enthus.
iasm. The soldiers would have known
that they we're home again had they
all been blindfolded. From the time
the train entered the city limits it was
assaulted with cheers on all sides. All
along theline from the time the train
entered the state like reception was
given the heroes of Luzon.
At the armory in the evening the
banouet rendered the volunteers by the
citizens of Portland, was made hitting
climax OF the OCCASION. Governor
t1eer and prominent citizens spoke.
Bripadier- General Summers was pre-
sented with a sword, gift from his
fellow citizens.

HUNGER AND DEATH.
Tales of Disaster From the Edmonton
Route to the Klondike

Tales of Disaster From the Edmonton
Route to the Klondike.
Wrangel, Alaska. Aug. 6. via Seattle,
Aug. 12.-The Stickeen river steamer
Stiathcona arrived here today with 80
survivors of the Edmonton trail.
All these men came in with the pack
trains sent out from Telegraph creek
and Laketon and various trading COM
panies last spring. They all tell heart
rendering stories of hardships endured,
comrades lost and abandoned, and
strongly denounce the trading and
transportation companies, as we'll as
the Canadian officials and newspapers
that 80 profusely advertised this route
as feasable one to the Klondike gold
fields.
To outward appearances these men
certainly give evidence of the suffer-
ings undergone since leaving Edmon-
ton, 18 months ago The majority of
the men are sickly looking, with un.
kempt boards and greasy clothes-pic-
lures of PHYSICAL and financial wrecks.
Several are prematurely gray and bear
the marks of scurvy. A few have just
enough money to reach Seattle or Vic
toria, but the majority are without
funds. The people of Wrangel have
appealed to the United States govern.

date no aid has been received. There

NOT OREGON LAND.
Contention of Washington boundary
ComInissioners-OldS Ship Chan
mel Is the Line.

f. l.. Rice, of South Bend, and ]. B.
Nice, of Cathlamet. who compose the
Washington state boundary commission
appointed by Governor Rogers to inves-
tigate the disputed boundary line be-
tween Oregon and Washington, have
completed their work from the mouth
of the Columbia river to Tongue Point.
They find that vast and valuable tracts
of tide lands besides valuable fishing
and seining grounds, which are now
claimed and taxed by Oregon, are in
Washington according to the law estab-
fishing the territory of Washington and
defining the boundary line between it
and Oregon to be the center of the
main ship channel Of the Columbia
river. The initial point at the mouth
of the Columbia is two miles from Fort
Stevens and four miles from Fort Cam
by on line across the river connecting
these two points. Thence the line fol-
lows the center of the main ship chan
mel, which has remained practica lly
the same since the boundary was de-
fined first, until the confines of Wah-
kiakum county are reached, where the
commission lays claim to considerable
territory now held by Oregon.
Of Wahkiakum county the main
channel was formerly up Wooddy's
channel through the Cordell channel
and thence into Wooddy's channel.
This was buoyed by the government as
early as 1853 and ran close to the Ore
gon shore. These channels are not
now in use, as the construction of the
jetty, which was expected, according
to the United States engineers report.
to scour them out. in reality filed
them up and throw the main channel
over on the Washington shore. This
shifting of the channel has formed val
liable tide lands, including the we'll
known Miller and Oliver sands, which
the commission claims for Washington
on the ground that the old channel and
not the new one should be taken as the
dividing line. This construction also
throws into Washington territory the
Desdemona and Middle sands which
have never before been claimed by this
state.
The commission has made a prelim-
mary inspection of the boundary line
up the river to point above The
Dalles and from all their information
it would appear that Oregon claims
and taxes everything in sight, includ-
ing some lands which have as high as
100 families living on them.
If the contention of the comm ission
proves to be correct, over 80 per cent
of gillnetting ground and nearly all OF
the seining grounds on the Columbia
belong to Washington, and Oregon has
no foundation to it's claim of jurisdic-
tion over Sand island, which has been
the cause even of bloodshed in years
past.
Mr.. Nice, the member of the COM
mission from Cathlamet, has lived on
the river for over 80 years and his per
sonal knowledge of the location of the
old channels and his wide acquaintance
with the old-timers ON the river are
proving of great value.
