MANY BUY CROWN CLAIMS.
Last Auction Sale mt Dawson At
tracts Crowds of Bidders-All
Sorts of Prices.

Special Dispatch to the Post-intelligeneer.
DAWSON. Nov. S-The sale OF all the
remaining crown claims in Yukon ter
ritory embracing all in the klondike held
by the government began Monday. Many
miners are in from the creeks, and one
of the big theaters is crowded with
bidders. The entire pit and the three
tiers of boxes around the entire building
are full of anxious buyers.
More than 5000 claims are being offer
ed. Many of the creeks are considered
of no value, and hundreds of claims are
being sold for dollar each. while in
some instances no bids are made at all.
and the land thereby becomes open to
stalking and location. One man bought
an entire creek for dollar. The sale
was considered a joke, but luck may at
tend him. Some Of the choicer grounds
go for hundreds of dollars, and others
range all the way down the scale
An attempt has been made by some to
file within the Anderson and the Bron-
son AZ Ray and other big concessions.
and the gold commissioner has refused
the privilege. A contest at law is threat
ened. The woud-be filers are said to be
organizing.

Fatal Coal Mine ExpIo.fon.

Wilkesbarre, Pa, Oct. 31.-A heavy explosion of gas occurred in No. slope of No. shaft of the Kingston Coal com pany at Edwardsville late yesterday aft ernoon, in which five men lost their lives and six others were badly burned. Five of the six injured are In precarious con- dition, and it is doubtful if they can sur vive. When the men were brought to the surface by the rescuers. the skin hung in shreds from their bodies. The force of the explosion was so great that it blew down a great section of the roof It was first thought that there were a num- Der of men back of the fall, but the mine officials are of the opinion that all of the men have been taken out. The accident was due to an employee who diverted the air course unwittingly and allowed the gas to accumulate in the place where the men were at work.

OUT OF FOREIGN OFFICE.
Salisbury to Give Up His PortfoIi.
 VIII Remain Premier.

Salisbury to Give Up His Portfolio.
 VIII Remain Premier.
 London, Oct. 31.-The Daily Telegraph this morning makes this important an- nouncement:
 We understand that Lord Salisbury has, after mature deliberation, decided to resign his office of secretary of state for foreign affairs, remaining. however, at the head of the government as prime minister.
 Tn arriving at this conclusion the no- ble marquis has, we believe, followed the counsel of his trusted medical advisers, though we are glad to know that his health gives no cause whatever for anx- iety.
 "The successor of Lord Salisbury at the foreign office will be the Marquis of Lansdowne."
 The Times confirms the statement of The Daily Telegraph that Lord Salisbury will give up the foreign office portfolio, but it does not name his successor.
 Referring editorially to the appoint ment of the Marquis of Lansdowne to the foreign office. The Daily Telegraph approves it, especially In view of the fact that Lord Salisbury's influence will still preside over the foreign policy of Great Britain"
 Lord Salisbury came to London yes terday and paid a long visit to the for eign office, where he received Lord Lans- downe and after him the Duke of Devon shire.
 There is little doubt that The Daily Telegraph's information is correct. The appointment of Lord Lansdowne, whose control of the war office has been so sc verely condemned. will probably cause some dissatisfaction

AlvORO IN TONES.
DefauIting Note Teller Twice A
 

Defaulting Note Teller Twice Ar
 raixned.
 New York, Oct. 31.-Cornelius l.. Al word, who robbed the First National bank of $690,0O0, was arraigned in the Tombs police court twice yesterday. There is a question as to which has juris- diction in this case, the county or the fed eral courts. When the embezzler was ar raigned in the morning, 1t was decided to adjourn the case until afternoon. In the afternoon a further adjournment was taken until Monday, when it will be de- cided who has jurisdiction in the case. In the meanwhile the embezzler will be held at police headquarters.
 There will probably be some trouble in deciding who is entitled to the reward of 5000 offered by the First National bank for the arrest of Alvord. Before the case is decided there Is a likelihood of law suits. The officers of the bank, as well as all the others concerned In the case, are uncommunicative as to the name of the broker or brokers through whom Alvord speculated.
 Captain McClusky said last night that in all probability Alvord would be indict- ed for forgery for having altered the ac- counts of the First National bank. This is punishable by 20 years imprisonment. There was no picture taken of Alyord for the rogues' gallery in this city, but Cap tain McClusky said it had been taken by the police In Boston, where Alvord was measured under the Bertillon system.
