of st. Michael, has been made a place of
detention for the smallpox patients, and
the two ships on which the disease was
discovered-the Ohio and the Santa Anna
are anchored in the vicinity.
There is almost an utter absence of civil
or military government in the Cape Nome
district, as well as in the whole territory
of northwestern Alaska, and the situation
was an ugly one last week when the Ohio
came in with her two smallpox patients
and her other passengers insisting strenu-
ously on coming ashore. Lieut. d. H.
Jarvis. of the Revenue Cutter Service. is
stationed here on duty as a Treasury spec
ial agent. and he Immediately took radical
measures to maintain the health of Nome
and to avert the imminent danger of a
scourge of disease. Acting under the elias
tic powers granted to him in his instruc-
lions from the Treasury Department six
weeks ago. Lieutenant Jarvis ordered that
the Ohio should proceed to Egg Island and
remain in quarantine there for at lea:t
ten days. cargo of lumber was shipped O

quarantine arrangements. There was A

TO dig gold or to engage in other enter
prises. They realized that loss of time

was a serious matter for their interests.
The company which owns the Ohio submit
ted with a slight protest:
Lieutenant Jarvis returned to Nome yes
terday morning. He had been there two
or three hours when the steamship Santa
Anna appeared a mile off shore, flying a
yellow flag. The health officer appointed
by the municipal government of Nome
went out to the vessel with Lieutenant
Jarvis and found case of smallpox on
board Before night the Sana Anna was
also on her way to Egg Island.
The most serious feature of the situation
on Nome beach, aside from the smallpox
scare. is the lack OF accommodations for
the men and women VINO are rushing in
from the States. Probably 11.00O persons
are living in tents on the beach or on the
tundra. In many cases these tents are
the poorest kind of shelter. Every inch
oil space on the beach that is not occupied
by freight is covered with an impromptu
dwelling OF canvas. The glut of freight
must be frightful thing for the owners
TO see, for the goods are landed at the
shippers risk. ard the damage from rain
and waves is serious and extensive every
day. The officials of the transportation
companies are overwOrked. and it is i'm
possible to comply promptly with the de-
mands of half the consignees for the neces-
sary written forms allowing them TO move

their goods. Yet it is impossible to land
any more goods from incoming ships until
part of the stuff already put ashore has
been taken away.
The lack of sleeping quarters is severely
felt. and men and women who are totally
untitled to endure the rigors of the Forth
| ern Alaska climate are suffering from ex-
posture. Men walk the street (the loads
| in Nome are by courtesy called streets)
every night for want OF a place to sleep,
and others roll themselves in their blank
cts and lie without shelter on the wet
sand of the beach. The weather. never
very mild in this part of Alaska. has been
exceptionally raw and disagreeable for
several days. Last night there was Sc
we're storm of mingled rain and snow, and
the sea ran so high that all the ships lying
a mile OFF shore were or the point OF put
ting farther away when the storm abated

NOME, Alaska, June 1S.-No one could

fore the end of the season, and all of them
arc looking for large passenger lists on all

great steamships have been quarantined
here on account of an outbreak of small
pox on board. and not a passenger or a

as republican, Senator Wellngton's
speech marked his formal renuncia-
ton of party ties on account OF the
issues growing out of the war with
Spain.
Senator Wellington at the meeting In
this city said he did not believe there
was any danger of material changes
in the tariff and financial laws in case
of Mi. Bryan's election. At the men
ton of the probability Of Mr. Bryan's
election the Kisses which had for time
been growing in volume, became Zero
cious. The senator stopped short in his
speech and said did you ever hear
that there were three things that hiss,
now and then. The first is a serpent,
the second a goose and the third
fool"
AS Senator Wellington proceeded with
denunciation of congress and an ar
raignment of the administration for It's
attitude in the Philippines, the signs or
disapproval began again to mingle with
the applause and there were occasional
cries of put him out"
At the conclusion of Mr.. Wellington's
address, Mr.. Bryan was promptly in
troduced and the applause which had
welcomed his first appearance was re-
peated. He began by referring to SEN
ator Wellingtons speech as notable
occurrence He also rebuked the hiss
ing of the senator's utterances.
