MINERS REPORTED STRANDED.
II Investigation Justifiea a Vessel
VIII Be Sent to Their SuccOr.


Captain Shoemaker, chief of the revenue
cutter service, today sent Geographic in
structions to an official of the treasury in
San Francisco to Investigate the report that
115 miners from Cape Nome are in serious
straits at Unalaska. Alaska, because of the
stranding of the schooner Ralph J. Long.
The press dispatch from Seattle Is that the
vessel is out Of food, that the passengers
have spent all their money and the store
keepers at Unalaska will not advance pro-
visions to supply the needs of the men. If
lne Investigation proves the report to be
true the revenue cutter McCulloch or some
other vessel of the service will be ordered
to Unalaska by Captain Shoemaker. who
has eonferTed with Secretary Gage. The
vessel will" go. with provisions and will
either bring the Stranded miners back Or
escort the schooner if she is able to sail.
Captain. Shoemaker is going to make an
omcial investigation before acting. as he
says there is frequentiy much humbug in
the stories of need that are often printed
from the Alaska country Sometimes
miners with plenty of money, Will beat"
the government if possible. anG after arriv-
ing at San Francisco or Seattle will discard
their plain clothes and buy The finest to he
had. 1t is not this kind of men that the
treasury proposes to aid in getting away
from Unalaska. 3d."

Experts GOlnE over Accounts Oh L0ue
Treasurer of Louisville.
LOUISVILLE. KY, November 2S.-It Is
believed in official circles that the alleged
discrepancy in the accounts OF Former
City Treasurer Stuart r. Young. who COM
mitted suicide last night will amount to
between $4,000 and $4,000. The experts
and the committee appointed to examine
the books OF the treasurers office were not
at work today on the accounts and one OF
the experts stated that 1t would be several
weeks before any official report of the con-
dition OF the books can be made, as It viii
be necessary to check the accounts OF
Young for the entire term of his incum-
bency-four years.
The only Information regarding the &C
counts is that between the indicated bal
ances and the actual balances in the two
banks in which the funds Of the city are
deposited there is a discrepancy of about
$4,000.
Young was assistant postmaster In this
city during the administ ration OF President
Cleveland. the postmaster being Charles
p. Weaver. who was mayor Of Louisville
at the time Young was city treasurer.

Salonica hear that Miss Ellen NJ Stone,

Years Confinement.

Brig. Gen. Randall, who commands the
department Of the Columbia, is making
reputation as a severe prosecutor Of SOL
diers who are guilty of small thefts. The
record Of court martial just received
here shows that a recruit. Alexander
Reese of the 10th Field Battery, was SEN
fenced to be dishonorably discharged the
service of the United States. to forfeit all
pay and allowances and to be confined at
Alcatraz Island for one year for the lar

it should have included hard labor.
