said that he had within week or two cancelled
previous joint tariff rates eastbound traffic with
half dozen reads, notably the New-Yorh Central.

Southern, Erie and Central New-England. He
said that account of the fact that the New
Haven road controlled two important gate
ways on the Hudson River, at Harlem River and
Fishkill Landing the road was able to secure long
hauls its eastbound freight and to greatly in
crease its earnings
Previously the road has been handling freight
from the New-York Central at Springfield from
the Erie by way Of the Central New England at
Canaan, Conn.,, and from other roads at inland
competitive points Within two days; Mr.. Todd
said, the New-Haven road had secured agree
naent with the New-York Central that it would
send its freight hereafter by way of the Newburg
and Ffshkiil route which will give the New
Haven the long haul with greatly increased ad-
vantases. The New-York Central he said, had
agreed to drop the Jersey City route altogether
and 10 substitute Newburg. The. other roads will
also use the Newburg route, so that the long haul
is now secured with at least half dozen lines.

The construction Of the road has been absolutely

 The question of the townsite was taken up by the Chamber of Commerce at its meeting last night, in fact, al though there were several other ques tions of importance to be discussed the one absorbing question was this It was q relief, therefore, to this tensity of feeling, when near the close of the routine business ,Mr. Peoples suggest ed that some action should be taken on the townsite matter That was the thought of every member present, but what should that action be? For two hours this was earnestly discussed, and a veritable kaleidoscope of ideas was presented during this long and animated discussion, but no motions were made until everyone seemed tired out.
 When Mir. Peoples had pointed out that the chamber should take some action on the townsite matter, Mir. An derson suggested that MT. Price and Mir. Jennings, both of whom were present, should give their ideas on the subject Mir. Jennings merely said he had not idea to give, as he had not

Rev. J. J. Walters Relates Tale
 of The Porcupine.

Rev J. J. Walter returned from Haines yesterday on the Victorian and tells of a wonderful example of the richness of the Porcupine.
 Just as l was preparing to leave the hotel for the boat" said he, -four men who had mushed out from the Porcupine arrived and told a wonder ful story of the richness of the Porcu pine.
 From a space four feet square on Porcurine creek dust worth $3,ooo was taken out
 T did not learn the number of the claim, but the men seemed to be tell ing the truth.
 While in Haines I met several men from Bear creek. and all told of rich finds having been made and unani- mously agreed that that creek would prove wonderfully rich next year.
 The trail up the Chlkat is reported to be very bad, there being ten feet of soft snow on it that makes freighting impossible.
 There is quite large crowd of men waiting at Haines for the trail to be opened.- .there- seems4aaA-b -bs very large quantity of goods on the wharf"

Charles Mcdonald, who owns valu- able quartz interests in the Atlin dis trict, and who is now in Skagway, says that the people of Atlin are still more strike sixty miles east of Atlin, and on the coastwise side of the divide. The new country is said to prospect well. Mir. Mcdonald says also that there is steady grind of development going on in the Atlin country.
 Referring to the new strike, Mir. Me Donald said:
 Gold was discovered on Klahenan creek, sixty miles east of Atlin, by Lee Gorden last October. While the dis covery was on the coast side of the mountains, and the drainage is in Taku Inlet, the district is in British Colum bia. and a portion of the Atlin record-- ing district.
 "The news reached Atlin snpIe time lateT, and~ hity--os- siXx prespectors went to the new dst,ict. More than 100 claims have been located under the laws of British Colunnbia on Klahe- nan and a tributary offMackinaw river, and more are being located.
 Those who have been into the new district speak in the highest terms of the prospects There has been little work done as a matter of course, the prospecting that has been done, hay ing been by the crudest process, the pan and shovel only being used
 Garden, the discoverer, took out an 1verape of SS 5O per day in this Way
 There will probably be quite lit tie rush into the country in the spring.
 Many samples of excellent free milling gold quartz have been brought from the new district also, and those who have returned say there is plenty of it.
 AS a quartz country, Atln is stead fly advancing People are developing right along. Captain Goodwin is talk ing in a 2o-stamp mill to operate about thirty miles from Atlin on the south end of the lake. It will go in over the ice this winter. He repre- sents a London syndicate and has a big body of ore in sight that runs about S,o to the ton. It is free milling. He has about sixty feet of tunnel in, but is fully satisfied that he has a great mine.
 The Featherstonehaugh people are pushing work on Munro mountain and McGee creek, and many others have forty to fifty feet of tunnel on their claims.
