More Victims of the RIoDd,l,a

Seattle, Wash, July 25.-The Stick
cen river steamers 'Strathcona and
Casca have arrived at Wrangel, Alaska,
with 81 survivors of the Edmonton
trail. These unfortunates had been on
the trail nearly two years. They re-
lated tales of hardship and demon
strated the non-feasibility of both the
land and water routes overland. Under
orders of the Canadian government the
Hudson Bay and other trading COM
panies have sent out relief parties TO
bring in several hundred sick and
starving still struggling along the
Lizard and Pelly rivers. During the
past winter 1t is estimated that so
died.of scurvy and as many more were
drowned.

PAUL KRUGER EXCITED.
President Of the Transvaal Repub-
lie Threatens to Resign.
he CANNOT STAND OPPOSITION.

The Volksraad Gives Him n Vote or
Confidence and the Resignation VIII
Probably BE withheld - Dynamite
Monopoly the Bone OF Contention.
Pretoria. July 25.-President Kruger,
nf the Transvaal republic had been abb
sent from the government building
since Friday afternoon, and 1t was un-
derstood that owing to the opposition
shown him by the executive council
and the volksraad regarding the ques-
tions of the johannesburg fort and the
dynamite monopoly, he had arrived at
the conclusion that he no longer
possessed the volksraad's confidence,
and threatened to resign. Yesterday,
however, deputation, including Cen
eral Joubert, the vice president, Herren
Schalk and Burger and the chairman
Of the volksraad waited upon President
Kruger and induced him to attend a
secret session of the volksraad which
lasted over three hours.
Meanwhile an anxious crowd had as
sembled outside the building, waiting
expectantly to learn The outcome of
what was regarded as a momentous de-
bate.
Late last evening It was announced
that the volksraad had finally assured
the president that 1t had the utmost
confidence in him. 1t is understood,
however, that a majority of the mem
bers of the raad still differ with the
president on the dynamite monopoly
question.
1t is not yet known whether the
resignation was conditional. The news
was kept secret at Pretoria.
A prominent Briton said: "There is
no likelihood of the presidents resig-
nation, which is not desired at the
present moment. in the interests of
either the Outlanders or the Trans
yaalers"

Indianapolis, July 25.-A letter from
Senator Albert ]. Beveridge, dated at
Nagasaki, Japan, July 8, says that he
is in quarantine at that place on ac-
count of the Asiatic bubonic plague.
He says: "Our authorities here did all
they could to get me released, and
would have succeeded, but Japan is
panicky with fear of the plague. The
restraint is most stringent This plague
is unknown in the Philippines. If 1
could have come direct from the Phil
ippines to Japan or America all would
have been we'll. But the ships stop at
Hong Kong and at Canton, and both
places are hotbeds of the plague"

Grain-o Brings Relief

to the coffee drinker. Coffee drinking is a
habit that is universally INDUCED in and
almost as universally injurious. Have you
tried Grain-O? 1t is almost like coffee but
the effects are just the opposite. Coffee
upsets the stomach, ruins the digestion,
effects the heart and disturbs the whole
nervous system Grain-O tones up the
stomach, aids digestion and strengthens the
nerves. There is nothing but nourishment
in Grain-O. 1t can't be otherwise. 15 and
200 per package.
