ANOTHER WHARF COLLAPSE
Section OF the Dock Projection of
Columbia street Goes Down With
10000 Feet of Lumber.

A section of the wharf projection of
Columbia street. west of Railroad avenue
collapsed last evening shortly before 6
O'Clock. and 5000 feet OF lumber owned
by the Seattle Yukon Transportation
Company, went into the bay. No personal
injury resulted from the accident, There
were five or six people close TO the lum-
Der pile as IL went crashing through
the wharf, but all got out of the way in
ample time.
The wharf cave-in resulted from the
work of toredoes, whose ability and
feneish delight in gnawing and burrow-
ing into piles has never been questioned.
Probably twenty piles supported the COL
lopsed section. about 40 by 30 feet, ex-
tending seward from the west line of
railroad avenue. These snapped off, APP
parently all at once. and the weight of
the lumber carried the wharf stringers
and cross-sections down with vengeance.
Fortunately, the collapse came at flood
tide, which rendered the work of re-
covering the lumber. mainly planking
and dunnage strips. less difficult. BY
dark IL had all been pulled out and stacked
UP on the wharf again.
The lumber was piled on the dock about
a month ago. preparatory to shipment
to Dawson via st. Michael, on the Nome
steamer Santa Ana.
The damage to the wharf falls upon
the city.

Newly Appointed Jurist for Cape
Nome Arrives With staff.
HE WILL GO NORTH At ONCE.
Owing to Absence Of the United
states Revenue Cutter McCuiioch
Coast Trip Has Been Aba ndoned
A Brief Biography of the Man
who VIII Administer the Law in
the Great New Gold District.

Judge Arthur II. Noye3, of Minneapolis,
the newly appointed jurist for the Second
United States district of Alaska, COM
prising the st. Michael and Cape Nome
districts arrived IN the city yesterday
en- route to his post of duty He is ac-
companied by his wife and official stan
as follows: George V. Borchsenius, of
Wisconsin. clerk. C. f. Dickey. of Min
neapols, deputy clerk. and his wife. and
A. X. Wheeler. of Minneapolis, private
secretary.
According to the intentions of the de-
partment Judge Noyes and his STAFF were
TO sail north on the United States revenue
cutter McCulloch, but as that vessel has
not yet returned. they will take the first
ocean-g going vessel headed for Nome. so
as to arrive at the earliest possible mo-
ment The entire party is stopping at
the Rainier Grand, where they will re-
main until their departure.
In official life Judge Noyes Is probably
the least known of any of the three
jurists who will preside over Alaska.
This is his first official position. although
for many years he has been one ct the
most prominent attorneys in Minneapolis.
He was born in 1854 at Baraboo, Wis. AT
the public schools in that city lie re-
ceived his early education, graduating
from the high school in 1872. He then
attended the state university. and grad
uated In the class of 1876. Immediately
after leaving the university he began tho
study OF law In the Wisconsin law school.
and in 1873 was admitted to the bar
ShortIy afterward he moved TO Grand
Forks, N. D.. where for seven years he
p-at ticed law. In 1856 he moved to Min
neapolis, and since that time has. 1t is
claimed, held an enviable position as a
pre- cticing attorney in that city.
Al the time he was spoken Of in con-
nection with the Alaska judgeship he was
a candidate. on the Republican ticket for
district Judge of Hennepin county. He
gave up that race. however. for tho pros
poets OF the appointment In which he has
been successful. Although for many
years prominently identified with the Re-
publican party In Minnesota, he has
never held or sought office until this year,
when he came out for district Judgs.

speak to you of my new position" he

Between twenty-five and thirty of the
adherents of Gubernatorial Candidate r.
II. Cute met In the rooms of Capt. John
Taylor. in the Hinckley block last even
ing. for the purpose of ehecting tenn
porary organization and perfecting plans
for the canvass of the county in tho in
terests of their candidate. Ralph Mich
OILS, John g. Barnes and W. H. Lewis
urged upon the candidates supporters
the necessity for a thorough organiza-
ton, to the end that the strength which
each affirmed was daily drifting from
the standard of Mayor Humes might be
husbanded into the ranks of Mr.. Guie.
During the course OF a desultory dis
cussion over ways and means to accom-
plish effective organization among the
country delegates w. II. Lewis made the
statement that a careful canvass of a
number of country precincts had i'm
pressed him with the fact that the ad-
herents of Mayor Humes were fast de-
sorting his standard. but that In the
large majority of instances the deserters
We're being enrolled under the banner of
the Frink adherents. The speaker ex-
pressed the conviction that the condition
but emphasized the necessity OF organ
ization in the country precincts with
view to obtaining at least fair proper
ton Of the dissipating strength of the
mayor.
At the meeting Capt John Taylor was
elected temporary presiding officer and
f. l.. Feurt temporary secretary. Ralph
d. Nichols stated that a recent canvass
of the outlying precincts convinced him
that the object of the meeting would
serve a vital purpose. He gave 1t as
his observation that many country dis
tricts contained Frink and Cute workers
but that the adherents of Mayor Humes
were very little in evidence.
John g. Barnes appealed for a syste-
matte effort at obtaining Cute adherents
in each hamlet in the county. The
same men who appeared at last years
convention will appear at this, and upon
the principle that a little leaven leavens
the whole convention l advocate an i'm
mediate organization" said Mr.. Barnes.
w. II. Lewis said: MY observation Of
the conditions which obtain in the coun-
try districts is that the Humes support
ers are fast deserving his cause. but
practically all of them are being enrolled
in the ranks of Candidate Frink. A prop
er organization will result in securing
our share of the mayors former strength,
and hope that the purpose of the meet
ing Will be acted upon without further
loss of time"
Attorney f. J. Hart deprecated tho in
lection of personal animosities into the
campaign, and urged the Cute advocates
to subordinate their preferences for mi
nor candidates In the main object Of Sc
curing united delegation for their
choice. The meeting adjourned subject
to the call of the chair.
