Prize Worth Fighting For.
1.-THE officers of L. A. 300 believing that
this fight was of vital interest to them. and
that the success of Parsons ct al would
probably result in disrupting L. A. 300. and
that the $4,000 In their treasury was
prize worth fighting for, also filed bill re-
straining Parsons ct al. from interfering
with the grand Secretary-treasurer in the
discharge of his official duty. They also
preferred written charges against Parsons.
O'Keefe and Conner, which were directed
to the general worthy foreman, with de-
mand for a special meeting of the general
assembly at the earliest possible date con-
sistent with the constitution, to hear ana
act upon the charges. Parsons ct al. imme-
diately after filing their restraining order
thought to complicate matters by filing
contempt proceedings compelling the grand
secretary-treasurer to show cause why he
was not in contempt of the courts order
All cases were argued May 23, the court de-
Gliding in our favor on the Parsons Dill and
on the contempt proceedings. and dSsolving
the other injunction, leaving Brother Hayes
in possession of the general office. This de-
cision was rendered at IL o'clock am. May
% At about II pm. of the same day Par
sons swore out n warrant for the arrest OF
Hayes Chamberlain and Lindholm. think
ing that by that means he and his party
could break into and get possession OF the
general office. We had provided for this
emergency by placing two men on the In
side and police officers on the outside, so
they failed in the effort. Parsons and his
party then put around the building noisy
mob, largely composed of the expelled and
suspended members of old d. A. ,8, to-
gether with Thomas f. inks of 300 and
Timothy Healy and P. j. Daily of ~. the
latter making themselves so obnoxious that
the officers took out a warrant for the ar

Washington & Alaska. Co.
 Adds to Its Fleet.
THE NEW SHIP "RUTH"
othor Limos Adding to tho Number
 of Their Steamships Shows Tho
 Appreciation of skagway's Trade.

The steamer Ruth Is to be put on the Skagwav-Puget Sound route. She will leave Seattle on her first trip to this port about March 77. The vessel will be oper- ated by the Washington and Alaska Steamship company, virtually Dodd K Co.,. general agents of the American Mall Steamship company, operating between Tacoma and the Orient In connection with the Northern Ple'he Railway. The same company now operates the City of Se- attls and the Farallon on this run.
 The announcement that ;he Ruth Is to be run to Skagwav, following as it does, on the heels of the announcement that the steamer Alpha Is to also come to this port, and that several other large ships are likely to be added to the route, Is consider ed a significant tact argument of the es' teem in which shipping men hold the trade of the gateway to the Klondlke.
 The Ruth has been a steam schooner and Is being built up. She Is to be fitted with complete upper works and a system oi passenger accommodations for 30 cabin and 90 s,eerlge passengers. Her freight capacity will be 6so tons. The ship Ruth in short. will be just such a craft as the Diriso, which also was once a steam schooner. She will have speed of IT knots an hour, and will make two round trips a month.
 With the two trips of the Farlllon, and the three of the City Of Seattle, and the two of the Ruth, the steamers of the Washington & Alaska company will make an aggregate of seven calls at this port monthly. This Is a greater number Of calls than made by any other line giving a service to the port. The Paclfe Coast company now gives the most calls. namely six a month.
 Dodwell & Co.,, will make another de> parture in Alaskan trade this, sprlug bv sending their big trans-Pacihe liner Ia coma to Nome. She will slil from Seattle M V 2s. The company has placed the price of 6rst class tickets at sIzs, and s7S for second class. The ship has aeeommo- datlons for goo passengers aad 3oco tous Offrelsht. She was once the trans>Atlan- tie liner Pahhla.
 With the addition of the Ruth and the Alpha, there will be I4 steamers running between Sksgway and Puget Sound or British Columbia ports. They arc the City of Seattle, the City of Topeka, ,Amur, Farallon, Rosllie, Humboldt, Clutch, Cots taee C'tv. DIrlgo. Danube, Alki, Alpha, Ruth, Tees.
 The Amur and the Alpha are 10 go 'tO Nome about May [, but other ships are in prospect for this route. Notable amopg those In prospect are OneOr two steamers to b. put on by the Pacific Coast company, and to include the biz two-staek floating palace Santa Rosa, which will be in the excursion trade.
