The quality yesterday was generally
fairly good. There were five or six fine,
toppy loads in, and the general run was

Improvement over the closing days Of

MINERS HEAR ABOUT NOME.
Association Adopts n Constitutions
Suggestions for Nome Miners
From a Helena Man.

The Alaska Miners Association met last
night at the Seattle mining exchange.
The formal change of the name from
Nome Miners Association was made. The
time of the meeting was taken up prin-
cipally with the discussion of the various
articles of the constitution. The cost Of
membership was placed at so cents
month.
A letter from John Patten. OF Helena,
Mont, was read. in which he warmly
sympathized with the aims and purposes
OF the association. He said miners laws
had been successfully tried in California,
Nevada and Montana, and there was no
reason why they should not be considered
legal in Alaska. He gave some sugges-
tions in regard to the beach claims at
Nome. He said the miners should cali
meeting and divide the region into dis
triets then number the claims both ways
from discovery. He suggested that tho
claims be fifty or one hundred feet wide,
extending from the line of vegetation back
from high water TO the point reached by
the lowest ebb. He advocated that claims
should be held only by bona fide locators
and represented by labor at least one day
in each week. failure to comply with this
condition rendering the claim forfeited I'M
less the failure was caused by sickness
or other good cause.

DEAD IN A YUKON WINTER.
MINING SUPERINTENDENT FREEZES
ON THE WHITE HORSE TRAIL.
fsh-American Corporation, Ex-
pires While on His Way to the
Mines-He Had Made Many Trips.

The rigors of the Yukon winter claimed
the life Of William Summervile, superln-
tendent of the British-American corpora
TONS extensive copper mines back OF
White Horse rapids. He was found dead
on the trail leading from White Horse to
the mines. He undoubtedly froze to death.
Summerville left White Horse about De-
cember 20. He was not accompanied by
any one and thought nothing of making
the trip, only days travel alone, as he
had done many times before.
News Of his death came from the Tope-
ka's klondike passengers who learned Of
the sad affair at White Horse as they were
en- route from Dawson.

STARTING NOME TRAVEL.
Eastern Rate Trouble to Seattle II
Growing SerfOus-OutloOk
Uuateady.

According to local advices, the passenger
rate war In the East over Pacific coast
business is becoming more complex, and
1t is predicted that there will be a general
breakdown Of regular tariffs from all
points between the Atlantic coast and
Chicago to Seattle much sooner than was
expected. At the meeting to be held to-
day in New York, an effort will be made
to check the tendency. but everything
points to the worst condition possible for
all the Eastern lines. Boycotts have all
ready been inaugurated. and new rates Of
s33. 70 from Boston to Seattle are announ-
ced.
The transcontinental lines, with a full
knowledge that the Nome business is
coming this way. instead of to San Fran
cisco, are using every effort to keep out
of the trouble, but are gradually being
drawn in by Eastern connections, and
their proportionate share Of the busi-
ness Is thus being cut down.
In local circles 1t Is expected that after
the Chicago transcontinental meeting, next
Saturday, rates to this city from all East
ern points will go to pieces, and some Of
the Nome travel will be started.

FRANCE HAS NOTHING TO COM
PLAIN OF.

Seattle, Jan. /, 1900.
To the Editor: In a letter which an
peared in the columns of Sundays POST
Jntelligencer the attitude of France dur
ing the Cuban war. in my way of think
ing. is not well represented. The letter
says that Spain owes France many mil
lions and she could not afford to lose
them. The fact is, had 1t not been for
the church Frances attitude toward the
United States would. in all probability,
have been different. I fan to see where
France has. ever helped any country to
gain its independence, unless she was
directly interested in doing so, but not
for humanity's sake. 1t is true that the
Marquis de Lafayette sacrificed his pri-
vate fortune in coming over to help the
Americans; but for this fact France is
not entitled to any credit, nor ought
to expect any favors from the American
people. I cannot agree that America
has been unsrateful to France, although
I am of French descent. I say France
has nothing to complain of against the
American people The Americans are the
most generous and grateful people upon
the face of the earth.
