were taken to hasten their muster out.
The action of Gov. Lee, of South Dakota,

Permission was sent Gen. Otis few days
ago to furnish transportation for the in

home and muster out, but Secretary
Alger announced tonight that this order
has been enlarged, and that now all the
volunteers will be brought to the United
States as transportation can be furnished.
The secretary would not undertake to es-
innate when the last volunteers would
leave Manila under this arrangement, but
considered it matter of only few
months.

keep faith with all the war service men,

Trouble Between Canadians and
Americans Imminent In Alaska.
sKAGWAY, Alaska, April IA, via Seat
tie, Wash, April iS.--The actions of Depu-
ty United States Collector of Customs
Andrews in holding all liquors for the in
terror here and refusing to forward them
by conveys so long as the Canadian Of
ficials insist upon stopping American Of
ficers at the summit, has caused an accu-
mutation of nearly. 1G0 tons of liquors in
bonded warehouses awaiting the action
of the secretary of the interior on Mr..
Andrews letter asking for instructions.
In the meantime a liquor famine Is
threatened at Atlin, Log Cabin and Ben
nett and smuggrers are making big
money in getting past the American GUS
toms officers.
There is a strained feeling existing to-
ward the Canadian officials as to the re-
suit of their assumption of the summit
as the boundary line, and 1t would not
take much to create an open demonstra-
ton and a resort to arms should the
Canadians attempt any further en-
croachments on American territory.
While there was no truth in the re-
ported battle between miners and mount
ed police on the boundary line on the
Porcupine district, it is stated that for
ward move was contemplated by the
Canadians, and all arrangements had
been perfected. to move the boundary line
far enough toward the coast 10 embrace
the rich diggings of the Porcupine river.
The miners there, numbering about 700,
had determined leaders. Word was
sent to the mounted police that their
attempt to encroach on American terri
tory would result in bloodshed. AS the
Americans are in the majority the Cana
dians reconsidered their intentions.
corresponding move from the summit
to Skagway was also planned, and IL is
the knowledge Of these contemplated
movements that has aroused feling OF
antagonism here against the Canadians
that will yet result in serious trouble ii
the boundary question is not settled upon.

MISFORTUNE kEENEY FELT.
WASHINGTON, April 1s.-The capture
of the Yorktown's men. was discussed
with much feeling in naval circles. The
misfortune was felt with added keenness
as the navy has prided Itself thus far on
immunity from reverseS.
The admirars dispatch Of today was
the first knowledge tile department had
had that the Yorktown had gone on this
special mission to relieve the Spanish gar
rison at Baler. That the capture should
have been effected while the American
forces were on a mission Of mercy to-
ward the Spaniards rather than in the
prosecution of a campaign, led to the
belief that Spain could have no further
ground for questioning the good faith
with which the Americans were seeking
to relieve the condition. Of the Spanish
prisoners.
Although the dispatch gave no fndica-
ton that Lieut. Gilmore and his men had
lost their lives, yet great anxiety was
aroused by the mystery surrounding their
fate In the hands OF an uncivilized
enemy.
This is the first capture of any Ameri-
cans, military or naval, SO that it is un-
known how the insurgents will treat our
men. If civilized methods were pursued
an exchange could be quickly effected as
Gen. Otis has a large number Of Filipino
prisoners, but the insurgents have been
averse thus far to exchange Spanish pris-
oners, and this raises. a question as to
what they will do with the Yorktown,s
men,. The purpose lof officials here Is to
spare no effort to secure the speedy re-
lease of our men.

ALBANY, N. Y. April 13-The Mazet
investigating committee today decided to
defer action on the proposition to call
Richard Croker and John f. Carroll be-
fore the bar of the assembly in contempt
proceedings.
Frank Moss, chief consul to the COM
mittee, when asked what course would
be taken in regard to the refusal of Mr..
Croker and Mr.. Carroll to answer ques-
tions, said:
'.Mr. Croker could not be criminaly
prosecuted for evidence against himself
given by himsef-that is the evidence
could practically not be used against
him. He is protected, not by statute.
but by a resolution of the legislature.
That resolution does not, of course, pro-
tect any person from the criminal congo
quences of perjury before the committee.
/ want to say in regard to the police part
of the investigation that the committee
will not draw any political line, and that
# will not make a distinction between
Republicans and Democrats.
