Jury Is Secured and One
 @M Witness Examined.
BATTLE TWILL BE HOT
Not: Expected That This Caso Will Be So Long Drawn Out as tho One Just Tried-TwO Skagway Busi- ness Men Fined.

It was after four o'clock when jury was secured in the fourth and last of the famous Jack Wade cases, which was called for trial yesterday morning. The opening statements were made to the jury and :he plaintiffs examined one witness. The title of the case is C. E Hazzev vs. Charles Hauge and others.
 The jury as finally selected by both sides consists of the following; John Eidsen. George Skeavington, Bert John> son, H. D. Kirmse, Percy E, Hunting, Harry Higgins, J. A. Flynn, L. A. Treen, E. ]. Hamacher, A. H. Baker, A. L. Ritter and D. C. Brownell,
 The array of legal talent on both sides, who so vigorously fought the case just ended are prepared to as stubbornlv con test the case now on trial.
 Much amusement was furnished the spectators In court yesterday afternoon by John C. Lilly and Al, Peterson, two popu- lar young business men, being fined on ac- count of failure to obey the summons by Deputy Marshal Shook to appear as jurors and answer when their names were called. The gentlemen were brought into court on an attachment, and each had an excuse. MT. Lilly was going to Dawson today, and MT. Peterson was i'll and while the court excused them from jury duty,he fined each for not obeving the summons,

City of Seattle Brings Over

OTHER STtAMBOATS IN
The Dirigo. the Danube and the Ruth All Competing for Today's Passen- ger Traffio-City of Seattle Left With Over Two Hundred Passen- gers Early This Morning.

SkagWay bay was we'll filled with steamers yesterday, and the people who came in on the evening train had a bewil- derng chase. The first choice, necessarily was the City of Seattle, which came in with I72 passengers and APO tons of freight and four hundred live hogs for the Daw- son market. She captured 22s passengers and was to get away at o'clock this morning.
 The Danube came in yesterday morning, and the courteous Captain Foote had sev- enty first class passengers. The vessel carried sixty head of cattle for N. P. Shaw and nine hundred tons of merchandise. She got into port at $40 yesterday morn. ing, and will be held in port until after the arrival of this evenings train,
 The Dirigo will also await the evening train today. She came in yesterday with forty two passengers 500 tons of freight and T2o head of stock. About half of her freight was for Skagwav merchants.
 The Ruth also goes out today, so there are plenty of steamers for the man from Dawson to choose his stateroom on.

TAX APPLIES TO ALL
as We'll as Banks Are Required by Law to Pay the Ten Per Cent for Passing Foreign Bills-Not Known Whether the Law Will He Enforced or Not Special Agent Is Here Now and Will Investigate.

The circulation of Cana iian currency which has become general in Alaska might be stopped. The government ten per cent. tax upon the circulation of currency not treasury notes, coin certificates or national bank notes, which it has been decided ap- plies to foreign currency as well as state bank notes, does not only affect banks passing it but it makes any individual who pays out Canadian or other foreign curren cy liable to the tax.
 If the law should be enforced in Alaska under the construction placed upon 1t by the present secretary of the treasury it would be prolific in its results. At the present time the circulation of Canadian currency has become the rule in many parts Of Alaska. So large Is the plopor- tion of Canadian bills to American in cir culation that there is already consider able demand in Skagway for American currency, and that prospect that it will go to premium as it is in Dawson.
 Dr. J. N. Garner, special agent of the treasury department who arrived last night from Nome and way points, and whose authority extends over the matter, in refer ring to the question said:
 ''I do not know whether the department will enforce the law in Alaska or not. It has been enforced in Portland, Seattle and other northwestern places, and the Canad> I ian bills forced out of circulation.
 ''ln Nome found that about seventy five per cent. of the money in circulation was Canadian money. About fifteen per cent. was American and ten per cent. gold dust,
 Everybody there agreed that it would work hardship to apply the tax on those passing Canadian bills, so l wrote the de- partment recommending that the enforce ment of the law be deferred insofar as that point was concerned.
 What will be done here l don't know, but the general idea that the law is only applicable to banks is erroneous"
 E. B. Wishaar, the newspaper man who has been in Dawson for a year and half, referring to the scarcity of American money in the north said;
 American money is and for long time has been at premium. It costs one per cent to get American money in Dawson, notwithstanding that is Canadian terri tory. It is probably the only instance anywhere that foreign money is worth more than par"

Portland Steamer Line.

Laramie Mayer, in regard to the discus sion as to San Francisco steamer line di- rect to this port, thinks that Portland would be able to give us quite as good ser vice as San Francisco and make a saving of time. In regard to number of com modties this is perfectly true, and why Portland does not compete for the Alaska trade has for long time been puzzle to the merchants of this port. Perhaps MT, Mayer knows more about this Portland line than he at present feels at liberty to tell.

canal money. Of course, this might be
true and yet the Senator involved
might not be guilty Of anything worse
than bad judgment. For instance, a
man whose egotism is great enough, and
egotism is a marked characteristic OF
most men, might easily Be fattered into
accepting an invitation to go on pleas
ure trip with some man whom he be-
lieyed to be his personal admirer and
friend, without devoting any thought to
where the money was coming to pay the
bills, or whether the man expected any
legislative favor in return Tor such ex-
pt nsive social courtesies, and yet be a
man of honest intentions. To accept
such invitations, however, is pretty
strong indication that the man is not
properly equipped for successful Con
gressional career. The best and most
serviceable friends the lobbyists have in
Congress, are those who are never seen
in their company and who could not be
induced to make a trip in the company
of anyone known to be connected with
any sort of lobbying scheme.

WASHINGTON LETTER.

FROM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT.
WASHINGTON, DEcMEBER 24TH, 1900.
Nothing could be more compliment
tary to the United States Supreme
Court. or better demonstrate the abso-
lutte faith of the people in the strength
of our form of government, than the
current talk about the decision of the
Supreme Court, in the cases involving
the constitutional status of Porto Rico
and the Philippines, one of which was
argued Just before the Court took its
holiday recess, and will be decided III
the near future. While opinion is much
divided rs to what the decision will be
it is unanimous that 1t will settle the
much argued question. Ia other words
that no matter whether this decision
shall uphold the construction put upon
the Constitution by the administration
in its dealings with our new possessions,
or shall upset it and make an entire re.
versal of policy necessary, it will be ac
cepted as final by everybody. There
have been decisions of the supreme
court that We're unpopular. but there
has never been one that was not &C
cepted. This reflects as much credit
upon the good sense and patriotism Of
the people. as upon the wisdom and
integrity of the men who have been
hon ored by membership Of that court,
which has been called Wrhe Greatest
Legal Tribunal Oh earth The sec
ond case involving the same general
question has been set for argument on
January 7th, after which the conrt will,
it is expected, consider the cases and
prepare its decision.
