Washington. Nov. 16.-The census
bureau recently completed the emu.

schedules have been received at the

gave out the following statement with
reference to the work in the territory:
samuel 6. Durham, who had

with respect to the native population,

OF the Yukon and the Kuskoquin rivers.

with dog team during the winter,
and enumerated 3,O13 persons, all OF
whom were Indians. The Indians in
this region are probably the most des.

time saw but three fires burning in the
shacks. The poor creatures huddle to-
gether in their miserable dwellings
during the long winter, and subsist on
frozen fish and little seal oil, which
they secure on the coast during the
summer. The fur.bearing animals,
which formerly furnished them with
natural clothing, are nearly extinct.
and they have been forced to adopt the
white mans garb, and. as their poverty
prevents them from securing enough
to cover their nakedness, there is great
suffering from the cold.

BOXERS FATE FIXED
Princes Tuan and Chang Go
to Prison for Life.
OTHERS FARE LITTLE BETTER
Moderate and Humane Course OF she
United States Has Advanced
Its Prestige In China.

Washington. Nov. 19.-Minister WI
has received from Director.General
Sheng the following caolcsram, which
he communicated to Secretary Hay to-
day:
can imperial decree of November 13
deprives Prince Tuan and Prince Chang
OF their ranks and Offices. and orders
them to be imprisoned for life; Prince
. Yih and secondary Prince lining to be
imprisoned; secondary Prince Lien to
be deprived OF his rank; Duke Lam and
lining Men to be degraded in rank;
Kang vi being dead, no penalty can be
imposed upon him; Chao Shu Chiao to
be degraded, but retained in Office. and
Yu Hsien to be exiled to the tarthest
boundary"
Tho Chinese officials mentioned in
the decree are among the highest in
China. and comprise most, ii not all.
of those against whom the powers de.
manded rigorous punishment. Prince
Tuan stands at the head of the anti.
foreign and Boxer movement. Previous
edicts degraded him and took away his
office and servants, but this judgment
of life imprisonment is the most severe
thus far given to any of the leaders
responsible for the trouble. From
Chinese standpoint, it Is an extreme
penalty to prince OF the blood, but
it remains to be seen whether the pow.
ers will regard it as adequate to Prince
Tuan's offense. The others mentioned
were Tuan's active associates. and two
OF them were specifically mentioned
for punishment, along with Tuan, in
Secretary Hays note OF October 3. in
which he advised the Chinese govern.
ment that this country would expect
these officials to receive their just de.
serts.
Kang vi is one Of the officials who
died suddenly when the demands for
punishment had been made. PROBABLY
by suicide. Yu Hsien is another who
was thought to have committed suicide,
but the reports indicate that he is still
alive.

CHINESE DISCOVERED AMERICA.
Evidence Contained in Ancient Records
Unearthed in Pekin.

Evidence Contained in Ancient Records
Unearthed i'm Pekin.
Monterey, Mex, Nov. 17.-The re.
port that American officers have un.
earthed ancient records in Pekin show.
ing that the Chinese discovered Ameri.
ca !, 800 years ago, and erected temples
in Mexico, has aroused the greatest in.
terest among the scientific men OF Mon.
terey and throughout this country.
The Chinese temples alluded to are in
the state Of Sonora, on the Pacific
coast. The ruin of one of the temples
was discovered near the town of Ures,
in that state, about two years ago.
One of the large stone tablets found in
the ruins was covered with carved
Chinese characters, which were partly
deciphered by a learned Chinaman who
visited the ruins at the request OF the
Mexican government. This Chinaman
made the assertion at the time that the
ruins were those of temple which had
been erected many centuries ago by
Chinese, but his statement was not re-
ceived with credence.
1t has been long claimed that the In.
dams OF the state Of Sonora are the de.
scendents OF the early Chinese settlers.
They possess many traditions and
cteristics OF the Chinese. If the
report of the finding of these records
in Pekin is verified an expedition will
go from here to explore further the
ancient temples of Sonora.

tiancia men, numbering about 500.
The Internationals marched to the fac.
tory and demanded that these men
come out. This was refused and the
Internationals declared they would put
them out. The premises are enclosed.
and as an International man started to
enter the gate the Italian doorkeeper
fred upon him. This was quickly fol-
lowed by an exchange. of several hun.
dred shots. The front and side OF the
buildings were riddled with bullets.
but no one has been reported injured.
Police officers dispersed the mob.
Every factory closed at noon for the
day. The mayor has sworn in 100 ex-
ira policemen, and the sheriff has add
ed numerous deputies to his force. The
mayor issued proclamation forbidding
torcblight professions and demonstra-
lions of the rival trades unions, planned
for tonight.
The Internationals have about 500
members here, while the Resistiancia
members number over 5000.
Since the rioting. the city has pre-
sented wildly excited condition, and
the streets in the neighborhood OF the
cigar factories have been thronged
with people. This afternoon. mass
meeting of business men passed a reso.
luton authorizing the chairman to ap.

did. These committees met and agreed
that all the men should 60 to work to.
morrow morning. The lnternationals
have agreed to this proposition practi.
cally. but the Resistiancia Union is
still considering the matter. 1t is
thought it will be adopted before morn.

guarded by deputies.
