awaiting an attack, sailed forth, and

Aguinaldo is reported to have per-

bring forward troops from Candaba,
and others from Dagupan were trans
ported by rail.
Along the front of the Kansas regi-
ment, 80 rebel dead were counted.

Assassination ofLnnn.

A Spanish officer, who has been a
prisoner in the hands of the rebels and
who was released by Aguinaldo. has
come through our lines to Manila. He
claims to have been a witness of the
assassination of General Luna. Ac-
cording to his story, the relations be-
tween the two Filipino leaders had
been strained to the breaking point
because of Luna's attempts to assume
control of affairs, and the final rupture
was forced by Aguinaldo issuing seci ct
orders to the provincial governors.
Luna thereupon wrote to Aguinaldo,
demanding copies of the documents,
and Aguinaldo replied curtly that
Luna was general of the army, and
that the civil government did not con-
Germ him. Luna. on opening the reply
at his headquarters in the presence of
his officers. exclaimed hotly: "He
will be dead tomorrow.
One officer. who was friendly to Ag-
uinaldo. hastened to warn him, and
Aguinaldo called together 20 trusted
soldiers. fellow townsmen OF his, and
stationed them around his house, with
instructions TO kill any one attempting
to enter, regardless Of rank.
Luna appeared the next day, and saw
Aguinaldo at the window. A member
of the guard said: "Aguinaldo has
gone to inspect the troops" Luna
then exclaimed: "You are liar, ="
drew his revolver, struck the guard and
tried to force an entrance into the
house. Before he could use his revol-
yer one OF the guards bayonetted him
in the back and the Others stabbed
him. In all, he had 20 wounds. Lu-
na's aid-de.camp was killed in the
same way.

YUKON RIVER CLEAR OF ICE
Open Navigation From Daw.
son to the Lakes.
SEASON SOMEWHAT BACKWARD
Rebuilding of the Klondike Metropolis
Causing Business Activity-Sawmills
Running Day and Night.

Port Townsend. June 16.-The Up
per Yukon river is open for navigation,
and the steamer Flora. which left Daw-
son May %, arrived at White Horse
June 3. One of her passengers, Will
liam P. Allen, of Seattle, who arrived
here tonight on the Steamer Al.Ki,
reports the Yukon river open ed TO,
navigation at Dawson May II. nine
davs later than last year. The trip
was made with difficulty until Lake
Marsh was reached, where the ice had
to be cut in order to get through. He
reports AZ loaded scows at Tagish.
Between Tagish and Bennett, 90 more
were passed, all loaded and bound for
Dawson.
Since the big lie, Dawson has been
the scene of business activity. Saw
mills have been running day and night,
but have been unable to supply the de-
mand for lumber. Every man who
can drive nail has secured employ
ment.
The season is somewhat backward
this year and as a result the cleanup
did not commence until short time
before Allen started out. He says
what little was known of the results of
the cleanup was most satisfactory and
claim owners were jubilant. Many
predict that the output of gold tins year
will lar exceed the expectations of the
most sanguine.
Allen says the reported exodus from
Dawson for Cape Nome is mythical,
as the news of the strike at that place
had not reached Dawson when he left.
The latest news from Atlin brought
down on the Al-Ki states that the open
mining season has again been post
poned from Jnne Ii to July~1. Gold
commissioner Graham gives as a lea-
son for causing the delay that large
number of claims are in dispute and
that he will not undertake the settle
ment of the question of title until the
arri val of the minister OF mines or his
representatives, who will hear the cases
and pass upon them. The delay in
settlement causes a stagnation of busi-
ness, as many of the best claims are
tied up.

TWELVE LIFELESS BODIES
Result of an Explosion In Coal Mine
in Nova Scotia.

in Nova scotia,
Halifax, N. S., June ia special
from Glace bay, G. B., one mile from
the Caledonia mine, one of the collier
les of the Dominion Coal Co., says an
explosion, accompanied by terrible loss
of life, occurred here today. More
than 40 men were in the pit when the
explosion occurred. and it is believed
nearly all of them perished. Twelve
lifeless bodies have already been re-
covered. The explosion was caused by
gas, which had accumulated in the old
workings. The night shift had just
come out of the mine, otherwise the
loss of life would have been more APP
palling than it is.
Some of those in the mines escaped
through the top. but how many is not
vet known. The officials at 10 A. M
were unable to state how many were
in the pit, but say there may have
been SO.

Railroad building in the West is be-

lhe activity of the Northern Pacific
and y. X. & N. into the Clearwater
valley, where considerable grading has
already been done, is well known. The
northwestern road has broken grade
from Huntington, with the Seven Dev-
lis district as the objective point. An
other road to tap the same district is
In about the same direction. 1t is pro-
posed to run this line from Weiser,
Idaho, along the Snake river through
the Seven Devils country and on to
Spokane.
And there are others.
The California, Nevada e. Oregon
road. which has its terminus at Ami
lee, CAL. is advertising for graders.
Its purpose is to push nothward into
Southern Oregon near Goose lake. Its
progress thereafter is problematical.
1t is said however, that it will push
notheasterly past Burns and towards
Huntington or Baker City.
There is certainly plenty Of territory
in Southern and Central Oregon for
several railroads. In fact, those sec
tlons of the state are entirely barren of
anything except rough stage lines.
Such is the condition of Malheur
county, Harvey county, Lake county,
klamath, Grant, Crook and Wasco,
each of which is as large as several
Eastern states. The railroads are all
along the nol lthern, eastern and west
ern borders.
The COlum bia Southern, now pushing
southwark from Antelope to Prineville,
will reach the heart of one part of Ore

drain large area of country. There
is also talk of extending the Corvallis

heart of the state. Then there is the

rights of way secured and gra lie stakes
