ALASKA DIVIDED
 AGAINST ITSELF
Congress Declines to Bother
 With Sectional Issues.
MIR. DAUTRICK'S VIEWS
MT. rrice is Doing Good Work. bat tis Unfortunate that Alaska Has No Unanimity of Sentiment.

A. s. Diutrlek, resident agent of the Washington X Alaska SteaI ship Co. and an active member of the Skagwav Cham Der of Commerce, writes to Dr. L. s. Kel' Ter, the president of the chamber, under date of New York. February Q:
 'l came over from Washington tonight, after spending three days there. Yester- day morning the senate committee on ter> rltories hld the Garter bill under consider ation and made substantial progress in It's consideration. It is now iO the hands of a sub committee. each member taking eer- tain number of pages for consideration, and Mr. Price thinks it ought to get into the conference committee In two weeks;
 "ln this connection want to say that MT. Price is doing a world of good for Alaska; not for Skagway only, as has been stated by some of the skunk cabbage citlzens, but he has worked earnestly and painstakingly for the whole district.
 "None of you know, unless you should come here, what he has had to contend with; but his course has been so fair and open as to strengthen him with the friends of those who are opposing his mission. ! have this from representatives whom l know personally.
 1t Is a misfortune that Alaska could not present a unanimous sentiment on the pending legislation. Congress is disposed to give us what we need, but it is not dis posed to be concerned with our sectional differences and private interests, and to the credit or John Price want to say that he has kept free from these entanglements.
 "l should like to give you more details, but the subject is too big to be covered in this wav will be home about March lst and will then give you my impress slons. | tell YOU Pm homesiek to get back. Will go over to Washington again Tuesday, and if think can help little may stay few days; then start to meet the balny breeze from White Pass"

|CAANBER DISCUSSES
 1HE GARTER B|u
Special Committee Appoint
 ed to Report Upon It.
THE SEATTLE CHAMBER
Sent Strong Resolutions to Congress in Aid of Alaslsa Wrangel Sign- cd the Petition.

The Chlmbsr of Commerce had lively and interesting meeting last night, and there was a good attendance, all of whom took part In the discussions, especially those upon questions affected bv pending legislation. Dr. L. s. Keller presided and among those present were Messrs. Wood. ruff, Moore. Metealf, Peoples, Meyer, 5. c. Kaufman, Mayer, Peterson, Day, Lilly, Blshopdek md Kelly.
 A communication was read from the Sc. attle chamber of commerce advising this chamber of the action taken upon receipt of the resolutions passed at the Skagway mass meeting. The Seattle chamber had thoroughly endorsed tn. stand made by Skagway against the Ggout bill, and had addressed to the members of both house of congress a strong representation on the sub jeet, Ca synopsis of which was given in the DAILY ALASKAN several days ago.l The secretary read this lengthy arguTent, and 1t was listened 10 with interest and applauded. A cordial vote of thanks was passed to the Seattle ehlmber for is ready and hearty assistance.
 A resolution of thanks was also passed to the managing editor of th= Seattle Post lntelllgencer, for his promptness in wiring the resolutions to Mr. 9nee.
 A communication was also received from Wrangel that the resolutions had been acted upon and the petition fully signed by the citizens and sedt 10 Mr. Price.
 Then followed general discussion of the Carter bill on a motion by Mir. Lilly that committee be appointed to carefully go over 1t and report upon it immediately.
 Attorney Day said that the bill seemed to him so generally good that i. was per- haps advisable not to make any represen- tatiOns to Washington on the subject; but t was observed by another member tha. the municipal provisions had been stricken out in committee, and then Mr. Lilly was in favor, if that proved to be the case. of wiring to Washington that the bill was uns atisfaetorv 10 the citizens unless that provision wss insefted. -, -
 Mr. Woodruff thought the bill ought to be carefully scrutinized by citizens of Alas ka, as there might be something in 1t materially affecting the interests of the district, and In q few days it would be too late to remedy this. Alter q full Giscus- sion Messrs. Lilly, Day and MetcaIf were appointed a committee to report on the bill
 A new committee on constitution and bylaws was appointed, consisting of Messrs. Kaufman. Day and the assistant secretary.
 N. K. Wilson was unanimously elected a member of the chamber.
 A telegram was read from Mr. Prize that he had received the resolutions and that all seemed to be going we'll in Washing- ton City.

IS PLENTY OF WATER
If People VIII Tako Care Not to
 Waste It.

The city water supply was somewhat depleted the last day or two by the exces- sive use or waste of water, and the water in the great tank was low yesterday morn- ing. Superintendent A. F. Eastman ln- veStlgated the situation. and found wan ton waste in many places, the people al- lowing full inch streams to flow, whereas a very light flow would have suffieed 10 keep their pipes open.
 "The unnecessary flow throughout the town," says MT. Eastman, "amounted to fully a Io.ineh stream, but have taken steps to have this waste cut off and the supply conserved to the greater safety of the city. The waste threatened to con- sume our entire supply. but 1t Is now rem edled, and there is plenty of water now in the big supply tank on the hillside. Had q fire occurred today the cltv would have been in great danger, but safety Is now ass sured."

 Eight or ten leading Sklgway ladies and as many gentlemen were in the tvpi- cal dress of revolutionary days, and to those who never saw costumes of the kind the sight was particularly pleasing.
 Powdered tresses characterized the ladies. and the gentlemen wore knee brooches, silk stockings and buekled shoon, wigs, quaint old waistcoats. and rich lace cravats.
 J.T. Hayne, as George Washington, and Mrs. C. A. Sehlbrede. as Martha Washington, were true to life. The dig nifled couple began receiving at S:3o p. m, and were assisted by Miss Whiting, as Pocohontas, and Capt. Hovey, Capt. Sei- berg, Dr. Bailey. Lieut.. Fix and Lieut.. Dillon. as the staff of George Washington and Mr. Reid as private secretary to the president.
 After formll presentations and hand shaking. Father George suggested a liter arv and musical program, and next came the most enjoyable part of the evening, the selling at auction of the luncheon baskets. Ffty-three of these baskets were sold, the average price being 8 basket The bidding was spirited and amusing. Not bid was started on the baskets below s, and seveial were knock ed down at sIo, while George Washing ton did the most patriotic act Of his life, paid the maximum sum of the evening for Martha's basket. It cast him sI3. Dr. l. H. Moore and Mr.RandaIl were auetioneers.

 The photographer, Mr. Winters, of Ju- neau, came up on the last trip of the A. kl. lt was the intention to hlve the AL Ki stop on her way north, but it was found too windy, and It was decided to make the attempt to get the pictures on the return run to Juneau. The ship left here yesterday morning.

Said to Run Fifty Conts to tho Pan
 -Glacier Crook Is Doing Well Much FrOighting on Dalton Trail.

News of a rich new gold strike In the Porcupne district has just reached the city. The strike Is on Boulder creek Fifty cents to the pan, it is said, has been taken out. The creek has been stal<ed the whole length on both sides.
 Capt. A. N. Jarvis, who has been In charge of the Northwest Mounted Police forcs on the Dalton trail. and who Is in Skagwav on his way to join the Strath- coma Horse for the Boer war, brings the news of the new gold strike. The captain says:
 "l cannot voueh for the news of the strike from personal knowledge, but got it from several persons on my way out from the post to Haines, and several im- partial witnesses are usually held to be sui icient to establish report.
 1t seems that Boulder creek has been known for a long time to carry some pros petts of gold, but tha, the richness was not learred until wi,hin the last week. Jack BlgelOw, understand. is the discov- erer. It seems he made the rich find by sinking to bedrock during the cold period.
 "l he prospects of the Porcupne coun- try are certainly good. understand that Glacier creek holds out inducements to the prospectors and that they are sinking on that stream. Also, that those who are working the bed of the Porcuplne have found good paw. However, nm not pre- pared to give any positive information on the matter. All that have is hearsav and could not give it as positive.
 "lhe copper deposits of the Rainy Hol' low country promise to in time become good producers, and [ hear that capital Is to look into their merits with a view of development. There no loub, Is good cop per ore in the district.
 "Forty to fifty men are in the POrtuDine and Rainy Hollow country this winter, and some of tie Rainy Holl,w people are taking in supplies preparatory to working on their properties. In fact, supplies are now roylng into all paiti of the country t,lbntarV tofhls srs ol .l,s DslScn srall. Four hundred tons of supplies are at Haines to be taken to Porcupine, the police post and other points. Portuplne will get the bulk.
 
 "Dalton & Hlnley have succeeded in opening thls end of the Dalton trail, runs hing up the Chilkat from Haines, after eX- traordinary efforts. They were compelled to shovel snow out of the trail 4s miles, but now that the tail is open it is in good condition for sledlng. Forty horses were in.aplcitated in opening the trail, and probably will not be SeTvieeabls again until spring. The trail was opened Febru' arv II.
 1.-Two men have started over the Dalton trail the first of this month for Nome. They had a cache Of goods along the trail which they took in from Yakutat llS' summer, and went by the Dalton trail to get the goods. They have dog teams. The trail Is in good condition for dogs.

SKAGWAY VIA SEATTLE
sithn Mail for This Port Makes n
 Long Journey.

Complaint has been made here that let ters and papers posted at Sitka for Skag- way have been carried to Seattle and sent through that office, thus having to go 1000 miles southward out of the course and 1000 back before reaching destination; whereas. were they put off the mail steamer at Juneau they would have at least three opportunities every week of coming direct to Skagway from that point.
 The steamer Cottage City Is supposed to be the only mail steamer running to Sitka aud, on her return from that point, she touches at S.tka before going south.
