DIR. Wood said last night that he
was very glad to report that Yong
Look, the Chinaman who had been TAX
en- from All Sans place, on the Waiki-
ki road, near Hopkins switch, as a
suspect, although he had died, was not
a plague victim. I'VE were mistaken
for once" said the Doctor; "the post
mortem examination held this after
noon by DR.. Hoffman, revealed pneu-
monia and meningitis as the cause of
death. Meningitis was what caused
unconsciousness in this case. l am
very glad that this did not turn out
a case of plague; it would have been
very tough on poor All Sam, who
keeps the store on the Waikiki road,
TO have had his place burned after TAX
ing Yong Look and his family into his
home through kindness. / am glad for
bis sake that Yong Look did not die Of
plague"
DIR. Galbraith said last night, in re-
lation to II. NJ. Levy, the suspect from
one of the Hawaiian Hotel cottages:
Levy is holding his own; there are
as yet 40 new developments In the
case, but ! am very much afraid that
il will prove to be a case of plague. He
is plucky and seems to be in good spir-
its; at present there is great suspicion
attached to the case; that Is about all
that can be said now. The people in

Causes External:
The plague affects all countries.
1t affects all climates, but IL has be-
come practically disease OF warm
climates.
Ii affects all attitudes.
It affects all seasons, but Is worse In
moderate temperatures.
Moderate temperatures combined
with a certain degree of dampness are
the most favorable conditions.
1t affects all races, but the yellow
race is the most liable. The white race
is much less so. In the epidemic OF
Hongkong in 1898, the death among
the Chinese was 9S per cent, and
among the Europeans IS per cent.
II is endemic in many countries OF
Asia.
II exists over such a large area there
that the disease may be said TO be pam
demic.
The worse the hygienic conditions,
constitutional and general. the worse
the disease.
Filth and overcrowding are the most
potent conditions for the starting and
spread Of plague.
Ii is the severest in insanitary dis
tricts and among the poverty-stricken
and ignorant.
In cities the cleanly districts are gen
orally spared.
Undertaking and the use OF poor or
unwholesome food Is a potent predis-
posing cause.
The poison is not eliminated by the
ordinary respiration Of patient suffer
ing with the disease.
The elimination takes place In the
sputum-especially in the pulmonlc

and blood from wounds. buboes or
other ulcers or wounds.

ALAsKA-s PAYRoLLs.

The fact that there are thousands Of men employed h the mining and other in dus,rles of southeastern Alaska and the Upper Yukon valley today, and still men arc in great demand by some of the olg enterprises of the region, is eommentarV that h itself speaks more than words as to the stability of tbe institutions of this young country. Where there are nuni- Der of blg concerns employing labor. t means the distribution of capital through msthOdlcal and business means, and where such Is done the payroll exists The word payroll carries with it the Idea of business of magnitude.
 He who takes into consideration that the payroll of the White Pass & Yukon road and the auxiliary company that Is building Its extensions. disburSes monthly sIeo,ooo, may admit that surely there Is work ot magnitude being dope by this road. The distribution of this amount of money every thirty days among an army Of men means the Altering of many dollars to all classes of society. i-t.
 The introduction of hydraulic mining into Atlin will create numerous pay rolls there. and prove a constant source of rev enue 10 the working men of the district and the support of q large population,
 
 The operation of he Treadwell and other large mines in Southeastern Alaska is already supporting towns of no mean pop ulatlOn. ,5. ..l
 The payrolls in the Klondike are con- stsntlv increasing in proportion with the inueaSe in the use of hydraulic machinery, ,hawing apparatus and other mOdem min ing equipment. and the population of that region thus insured of more lasting and stable source of revenue that is to come through the hands of the man who tolls.
 The establishment of numerous steamer lines on the waters of the Yukon, the building of SawmillS on it's shores, and the accompanying enterprises of boat yards and the like all create pay rolls, support individuals and families and law the founda- tons for the modem town.
 The promise of ore bodies of the interior soon to be opened fOI production, fl carried to q successful end. will mean the employ nent or m1ny men m digging the metal. its handling and reduction. and consequent ly the upbuildlng of the country. The same results will come from mines farther down the coast vet in AlsSka's boundaries The Industries referred to whlth arc be- yond th. coast range are all more or less tributary to Skagway, and as the Rev City will reap her share, and her general prosperity will not suffer to say the least, ,bv multiplication and Increase of pay rolls of other coast points.
 The payroll Of the salmon eanneries of the Alaskan coast, are hardly to be looked upoo by the residents of this region as of material ald. for it goes chiefly into the handS of Chinese, who horde and cary their earnings to another land, and leave behind ihrm no record of good to the country

Chamber of Commerce Committee stIn Working on the PrOposi- tion--DiRsrsnt Site. Considsrsd. Those Holding For High Prices May E8oAange For Other Lots.

Capt. Hovev yesterday sent away ad- vices on the steamer City of Seattle to Gen. Geo. H. Randall. commander of the department of Alaska. regarding the site for the proposed new military post In Skagwav. Owing to the complications that have recently arisen in connection with the matter of securing a site within the siv limits, the Captain made no rec ommendatIoh to the General but stated the whole matter 80 that he may be able to comprehend the situation and judge for himself. . -.... --- +
 "Ilnless the General expresses a desire 10 have the site In the heart of the eltv." says Captain HOvey, p''we shall very shortly have to begin work on the site near the car shops"
 The Chamber of Commerce committee has been buslly looking at various sites the last few days, and walking over the town from end to end, but have found none on thIs side of the river. right In town and that may be obtained at a rea- sonable figure, that lt likes better than that at Fourteenth and State.
 Although In one of the two blocks at Fourteenth and State streets there are two lots whleh the owners refuse to sell, save at the extraordinary price of $500 each, the committee feels that it may effect an exchange and thereby secure the two blocks intact One of the committee said last evening that fl two lots equally as good as the two m question were secured, the owners would probably exchange, rather than block the proceedings.
 One ot the sites that has been consider ed is on the water front, but the committee says there Is no opportunity to buy In that locality.
