upon claims aggregating s1s.5O2. 2SS. A large
part of these claims are from the South

State claims aggregate $i.7OO.9o9. OF the
whole. Senator Mason has reported favor
ably upon $685. 4ss and Senator Teller on

for the purpose indicated. The objection TO
the request for flags seems to be due large
ly to a misunderstanding. as it was an
nounced that two flags from each regi-
ment serving under General Grant were
required. Such requisition would take
all the flags some regiments have in the
Statehouse. AS only two flags are re-
quired, they can be supplied without de-
priving any regiment of representation in
the Statehouse.

PREPARE FOR MORE TRADE
RAILROADS AXD ALASKAN STEAM
SHIP LINES ARE WORK
ING ACTIVELY
BOATS WILL SAIL IN APRIL
Circular Letter Announcing Dates Of
Sailing and Other Particulars
Distributed by TrnnScOn-
ttnental Lines.

All the Pacific coast Alaskan steamship
lines are preparing for the opening OF
the seasons traffic to Cape Nome, Teller
City and Golovin bay. Circulars an
nouncing the dates of the Sailings of the
first boats have been received at the local
railroad offices, and in consequence there
is much hustling TO secure the business
which the spring rush to the north
necessarily entails.
Every one of the first five or six boats
leaving for Nome will be crammed with
passengers and loaded down with freight,
which the miners in Alaska will be only
too glad to purchase at eXhorbitant
prices Then there is the Dawson busi-
ness which will open up in a few weeks.
Thousands of tons of heavy machinery
Will be taken in as soon as navigation
commences, as well as foOdstuffs, liquors,
and general household supplies Most of
this whether purchased in the West or
not originally comes from the East and
the freight business which the Northern
gold fields bring 10 the transcontinental
lines is by no means inconsiderable.
The steamers plying between Seattle
and Skagway ran practically without in
termission, summer and winter, and there
is in the spring at the opening OF naviga-
tion, a great congestion of freight, wait
ing to be taken up on the early boats.
But with the camps in the Cape Nome
district, steamship communication in the
winter months is impossible About the
third week in April Is as early as it is
safe for an ocean going boat to attempt
the voyage, and there is always g1 eat
rivalry for the honor of first reaching
the camp. Frequently steamer has to
lie outside in the bay for weeks before
the ice foes float away south. and last
year the first boat to leave Seattle was
beaten out at Nome by ten days oy
another which started a week later
The Jeanie. last years record breaker
will sail for Nome April 26. and steamers
Nome City and Ohio will follow shortly
after. Reports from Nome nearly three
months old contain the information that
the winter season has been most success
full, and that bonanza strikes haves besn
made at Teller City. where one ineXper-
fenced miner is reported to have located
claim from which he was taking gold
at the rate of $73 an hour.
The Great Northern and the Northern
Pacific have distributed among their
agents circular letters announcing the
date of sailings of the various Alaskan
steamers together with full information
as TO rates, commissions, etc.

HEAVY RUSH OF HoMEsEEkERs.
Fully One Thousand Left for the
West on Excursion Trains

West on Excursion Trains.
Between the Great Northern and the
Northern Pacific forty-two heavily load
ed cars of hOmeseekers were sent out
yesterday for Montana and Washington
points. 1t is estimated that considerably
over LOCO passengers were on the four
sections, and the total volume of the
excursion traffic was much larger than
last week Next weeks is expected to be
one of the heaviest of the season. and
both roads will probably be compelled
to send out two sections each on both
days for which the tickets are good
A novel feature of the excursions yes
terday was the presence on all the trains
IF enterprising land agents from Spo-
kane, who on the trip will expatiate to
the hOmeseekers on the many advantages
possessed by their city, which cannot be
found at Seattle or any other city in the
West. Spokane for years followed this
policy, and the result has been that it has
gradually forged ahead of all the cities
on the north coast.
1t was SAID that these Spokane BOOM
ers were offering the settlers inducements
10 get off at their town by agreeing to
give them s. for the portion of their
tickets taking them from Spokane to Sc
Rttle. From St. Paul it costs just as much
to reach Spokane as it does Seattle and
naturally a majority of the travellers took
the ticket which carries them the most
miles for the same money There is
however, a flaw in this arrangement if
1t were ever suggested, because the rail
way company checks baggage through to
the destination on the tickets, and stop
overs are not allowed
