NEWS FROM NOME.

Weather Very Cold and Fuel Very
Scarce.
News from Nome up 10 January Goth
has come out by mail 1t is of exactly
two weeks later date than any pre-.
viously received, says the skagway
Alaskan.
The fuel question is a most important
not to say serious question. While a
minority have fuel enough ane TO spare,
the majority have not.
The weather is piercing in its inten-
sity, and the problem OF getting enough
to last from day TO day is hard one
with many. For miles east and west OF
Nome all the wood has been gathered
up and none remains. II seems the
grossest Indifference and neglect has
been exercised over the matter. Some
are even storing wood for their claims
next season, not content with a share
for Winter. There is said TO he a con-
9 derable quantity of coal storei,in town,
but IL is submitted there are not so very
many people in the town who can afford
to pay for it.
Goal is quoted all the way from 1925
to $40 a ton, and wood is selling at $40 q
cord.
"Stealing wood that has been piled up
along the beach is said to he common.
Many have TO keep guard over their
wood with guns. Complaints OF this
kind come from all sides, and the end is

WAS HE HELD UPg
Portland Man Claims He Was Touched
for Forty-two Fifty, but Tells
Conflicting Stories.

Considerable excitement was occas-
ioned Sunday night by the announce
ment that a man had been held up and
robbed within a stones throw Of the
postofhce.
About 10 o'clock a man giving the
name of ]. P. Sivner. told policeman
on Astor street that a few minutes be-
fore two men, one carrying a large
revolver and masked, held him up at
the corner of Bond and Seventh streets
near the store Of Ark Wo, and re-
lieved him of $3.50. The chief of po-
lice was Immediately notified and a
thorough search was made for the two
men, but no trace of anyone answering
the description could be found. Two
men We're pointed out by the man but
were liberated after being questioned.
Sivner also caused the arrest of a WE'LL
known business man. but the man gave
a clear account of his actions and was
released. Sivner then offered the sug-
gestion that Chief Hallock let the mat
ter drop. The chief told him that he
did not wish to do so, but that he
would capture the men If possible. Siv-
ner acted in very peculiar manner
and to several different people told en-
tirely differing stories. until the officers
finally began to believe that he had
evolved the whole story from the yeasty
depths of his inner immagination. A
vigilant outlook was kept for any sus-
piciOus characters and the. trans and
boats were all watched closely but with

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE..
A brief Session Of That Body Held Last
Evening.

The Chamber u Commerce held a
regular meeting In their rooms last
evening and several matters Of interest
were brought up.
A report was read from Judge Bowl
by who had paid a visit TO the Columbia
ifyer quarantine station with DR. Hast
lngs. The report contained a very ac-
curate description OF the buildings md
the detail OF the work connected with
the dlsinfecting and fumigating u ves-
sells. He called the attention Of the
chamber 10 the fact that although the
present work. as far as II goes. was
very satisfactory and reflects great
credit upon DIR. Hastings who has had
charge OF II. that there was an urgent
need for further buildings 10 make the
plant complete and capable Of the best
service. He stated that the sum OF $780,
O00 has already been expended In bring
ing the work up 10 the present condi-
tion, and that other buildings are need
ed that will cost when completed about
$4,000. He urged upon the chamber the
Importance Of asking for a further ap-
preparation 70 complete the work.
A communication was read from the
Portland Chamber OF Commerce which
quoted a resolution recently passed by
that body and urged that similar meas
ures be adopted by the Astoria Cham
Der. The resolution was the one urging
the appropriation OF S2.53l, 900 for the
improvement Of the mouth OF the Co.
lumbla river one-f0urth 10 be imme-
diately available and one-fourth each
year till the appropriation Is exhausted
or the work completed. This was en-
dorsed.
Another communication was read
from the same body also quoting q
portion OF a recently passed resolution
requesting the Oregon delegation TO as
sist Washington and Idaho In their ef-
forts for an abandonment Of the Dalles-
Cello boat railway and to get the bal
ance OF the Appropriation. amounting to
about $e15.0OO. transferred to canal
and locks project at the same place,
said balance OF the appropriation TO be-
come Immediately available. Also to
secure an additional appropriation Of
100000 on the continuous contract
system or as much as may be neces-
sary to complete same
In regard TO this II was moved that
the secretary send a letter TO the Ore
gon delegation in congress, asking
them to take such action as will speed
lily open the river TO navigation be-
tween The Dalles and Cello.
The mseting was then adjourned af-
ter some discussion on the harbor i'm
provement question.
