rush to the gold fields of Cape Nome

to sail, providing she arrives in time
from San Francisco. This vessel will
take so passengers and 400 tons OF
freight from this port and expects to
be one OF the first to reach Nome
when the obstructing ice has broken.
For the last several weeks people
have been arriving here by the hun
dreds to get ready to make the north
ward trip. and have filled all the hotels
to such an extent that it has been diff
ficult TO get accommodations. The
steamship Offices have been crowded
with applications for berths and
freight room. and many Of the COM
panies have been refusing passengers
for several weeks. II is conservately
stated that there are not more than 200
tickets available on all the steamers
that are scheduled to leave here In
Nay. and most of the freight room has
been sold. This means that all those
wishing to 90 to Nome expect those
who secure the few berths left must
wait until the June sailings unless they
embark on sailing craft, which are
leaving this port at the rate OF two
a day and have been doing so for the

BY CAPT. CARTIER
81 Says Expert Accountant
Employed to Exam-
inc Books

Atlanta. Ca, April 30.-The COnsti-
tuition prints the story of Edward j.
Johnson. the expert accountant de-
tailed by Attorney General Grlggs to
assist United States District Attorney
Erwin OF Georgia in developing the ex-
tent OF the frauds charged TO have been
perpeuated upon the government by
Capt Oboriin NJ Carter, now serving
a sentence In the military prison at
Lcavenworth. Kan. Accompanying the
report Is a statement from Mr. West
colt, Carter's father-in-law, In which
he repudiates Carter's statement that
the assets In the affair were West
colts
The figures show Carter's one-third
of the spoils TO have been over $3.50,
600. exclusive OF his share in the last
checks for S575. 1890. which were
paid over in New York at the time Car
ter was about to leave the district
when succeeded by Capt. Gillette. Mr..
Johnson's report says that Mr.. West
colt. In a written statement. gives the
government full access TO his ac-
counts in the banks and his private
papers. These show, the examiner re-
ports that while Carter frequently
made Westcott a depositary of money.
in every instance it was turned over
OF invested as Carter directed. These
papers show also that when the first
charge OF fraud was made against
Carter Westcott refused TO longer
take Carter's securities
Westcott has furnished the govern
ment with the receipts OF Carter, in
the captaln'q own handyvriflno
amounting to over 100000. These Sc
curities did not include. however. all
OF Carter's investments made since
the beginning OF his operations with
the other defendants This would in
dicate that the total loss OF the gov
ernment was $1,000 900.

Attorneys for both sides in the case

seem to be unable to find a desirable
court in which TO try the case. 1t was
first set for a hearing at Elkton, but
at the request Of the steamboat com
pany's lawyers it was postponed and
removed to Kent county, Maryland, for
trial. The case came up in the court
at Chestertown last week. but owing to
the non-appearance OF James Shelton,
chief witness for the plaintiff. 1t was
again postponed and set for trial at
Belair. Nd.
The action grew out OF fight which
is alleged 10 have taken place on board
one OF the cOmpany's steamers last
Summer, and in which Broadway says
he was badly injured by William
Clarke, purser on the steamer. The
trouble is said to have occurred while
the steamer was coming from Delaware
City to Chesapeake.
There are many witnesses summoned
by both sides. and the trial promises
to be exciting.
