Crowds F1ocking to New Field,
Which Is Reported Rich.

SEATTLE, July 10 The steamer
Drigo arrived to-day from Skaguay,
Alaska, with news of the reported
are said to be fiocking from Dawson
to the new find.
The Dirigo had number of passen-
gers from Dawson who brought out
small amount of gold dust. The purser
estimates the amount at a quarter of
a million.
The following news of clean ups in
the Atlin district was brought down
by passengers from Atlin: J. Wilson
and partner cleaned out vein 100 feet
long, and all the gold they got to show
for this was 5000. A Swede named
Strong, who held an adjoining claim
staggered on nugget valued at $40,
and this was about the sum total of
his clean up.
Frenchman Joe made a clean up of
$1,000 on No. 10 below Discovery, ON
Pine Creek. Harry Lund on No. 1, be-
low on Pine Creek, washed out $S
day to the man for awhile These
clean ups We're magnified in the reports
sent out into the thousands of dollars
Another small find by man named
Beagle was made on Birch Creek. He
washed out S16 from under a boulder.
BY the time the news got around a
little the amount had swelled to S11o,
and by the time it reached Willow
Creek it was $4,000.

Diego 76, Sacramento 101, Independ-

The pressure has fallen slowly over
the greater portion of the Pacific Slope.
The usual summer low extends north
ward through the valleys of California
far north of it's usual position.
Conditions are such that light sum-
mer thunderstorms may occur in the

temperatures ranging from 100 to 112

TRAGEDY IN YoLo COUNTY.
Fred Lederer Probably Fatally
Stabs His Wife.

WOODLAND, July 19.-Fred Lederer,
a German farmer. who resides near
Plainfield, in this county, stabbed his
in the body and head which will per-
haps prove fatal.
Lederer's daughter, IA years of age,
was the only witness to the assault.
1t seems that Lederer attacked his
wife near the house and chased her out
for a distance of about 200 yards, where
she was found sometime afterward by
neighbors, who had been summoned by
her daughter.
Lederer is mentally unbalanced; in
fact, warrant was issued for his ar
rest for insanity last week, but at that
time he could not be found.
The family have for some time past
been involved in domestic troubles, all
caused by fancied grievances on the
part of Lederer. While it was gem
orally known that he was demented,
no one anticipated such desperate ac-
tions.
About noon Lederer walked into town
and gave himself up to the Sheriff. He
speaks English very poorly, and it is
impossible to get a coherent story out
of him. He imagines that his wife is
trying to rob him of his property, and
this led to the assault described in the
foregoing.
Mrs. Lederer is still alive tonight.
Her physicians report she has a fight
ing chance to recover.

THE AMERICAN MARU.
Ordered Into Quarantine on Ar
rival at San Francisco.

SAN FRANCISCO. July 19.-The
American Maru has arrived from
Honolulu. She anchored in the stream
and was boarded by the quarantine Off
Ger, who is now making an inspection
regarding health conditions.
After making his examination the
quarantine officer ordered the steamer
into quarantine. The passengers Will
not be released until tomorrow at the
earliest. No mail matter has yet been
landed
The American Maru on entering port
did not fly the yellow flag, and it is
understood that she was sent to the
quarantine station chiefly because sha
had been placed in quarantine at Nag,
asah by the japanese officials, a sus,
picious death, attributed to the .bubonia
plague, having occurred on the voy-
age from Hongkong. DR.. Mattherson,
representing the Federal quarantine
service, and DR.. Cohen of the State
Board of Health, who boarded the
steamer are reticent. but it is believed
they found no cause for OBTAINING the
passengers longer than is necessary as
a precautionary measure.
