SHIPS FROM NOME.
Two More Steamers From the Icy NORTH
Bring 1900 Passengers.

Port Townsend, Wash, Oct. 49,
Two steamers arrived here from
Nome today, bringing over /, 200 pas
sengers, the Senator bringing 525 and
the Garrone 100.
The Senator sailed from Nome
October 10 and for several days before
sailing the icy fingers of winter had
fastened themselves on: Nome and
vicinity. Snow was falling and ice
had formed and preparations were
being made for a long, cold winter.
When the Senator sailed the steam
ship Queen was at Nome and the
Roanoke was at St. Michael. A
furious northern gale was blowing.
The Queen, Valencia and Roanoke
will be the last steamers from Nome,
and they will bring about 1000 peo
pie, and there are many more who
would return if transportation could
be secured, besides a large number O
destitute who would be compelled tt
remain at Nome and face an Arctic
winter, depending upon charity.

MILLION DOLLAR FRAUD.
Hundreds of People All Over ihe Country
Buncoed Out of Savings.


Boston, Oct. 30.-In connection
with what the United States mar
shal's office declares to be one OF the
biggest frauds they ever had to deal
with in this city, members Of the
firm of ]. G. Fisher & Co.. brokers,
were arrested today on a charge of
using the United States mail in a
scheme to defraud. 1t is alleged that
81, 900, 600 has been taken from the
public since January 1, 1900.
The method of the firm is said by
the authorities to have been very
simple. People all over the country,
it is alleged, were written to and told
what exceptional chances there were
to invest money, and that large re
turns could be expected. Pools were
formed and those desirous of getting
rich quickly were invited to re.
nit. After two or three weeks, it is
said, investors would be advised that
pool had been formed on a we'll
known stock and that as the quota
tions had gone down the margin had
been swept away, and that more
money was necessary Immediately II
order to save the stock. After hay
ing put in two or three times thu
original stock, some investor becam,
suspicious and called the attention
of the authorities to the matter.

MOST MAY ESCAPE.
Certificate Of Reasonable Doubt Granted by
Supreme Court Judge


New York. Oct. 31.-Justice Nc
Lean in the supreme court, today
granted a certificate of reasonable
doubt in the case of Johann Most,
editor of the Freheit, an anarchist
paper, in order to stay his sentence of
IL months imprisonment for the
publication of an article entitled
Murder VS.. Murder" which ap-
peared the day of President McKin-
ley's assassination. Justice Mclean
says the only proof to support the
judgment is that Most purloined an
article expressing certain sentiments,
written by another half century
ago, and published it as his own, Sin
a paper professedly of some circula-
tion, but which circulation is shown
by the sale of but single copy, that
purchased by the police, probably for
the purpose Of prosecuting. He fur
ther says that it may be doubted reas-
onably whether the judgment, even
with that support, should stand, as
plagiarism is not criminal offense
under the laws of the United States.

Auburn, N. Y, Oct 29.-Leon Czol-

Kinley, was electrocuted at 7:I2:3O.
Czolgosz passed quiet night. He
slept nearly all night. He awoke
finally at AS o'clock.
He suffered sight nervous attack
late yesterday, but remained sullen
and stole up to the time the prison
closed at 10 O'Clock. He refused to
heed the words of the priests who
came to urge spiritual preparation
for death and declined to re-embrace
Roman Catholicism or to renounce
anarchism. Czolgosz showed no
strength of love for kin, nor did he
turn to any of those higher consider
ations which ordinarily claim the
thoughts of men occupying his posi-
tion. He may have suffered untold
torture, but outwardly he seemed
sullen and Indifferent. The state is
not to surrender possession of his.
body, and by sundowE it will have

trolled by the officials of Auburn

Czolgosz held his last two inter
views last night, the first with Super
intendent Collins and the second
with his brother and brother in law.
Both of the interviews were brief.
The interyiewers did most of the
talking until the question of religion
was mentioned, when Czolgosz broke
from his seeming lethargy and yio-
lently denounced the church and the
clergy and made his relatives promise
that there should be no service for
him, living or dead. When his
brother and brother-in-law bid him
farewell, he turned and walked to
the other side of the cell and refused
to answer them.

sHAkE-uP IN NAVY.
SchIey Court of inquiry Said to Be Cause
of Much Dissatisfaction.

Washington, Oct. 81 President
Roosevelt seems determined to cause
shake up in the inner circles and
bureaus of the navy department as a
result of the revelations of the
Schley court of inquiry.
When Assistant Secretary Hackett
suddenly decided to resign few days
ago, it was recalled that he had al
ways been an intense partisan of
Sampson, and further developments,
not entirely pleasant for Simpsons s
particular friends or supporters in
the department, were looked for.
They came yesterday, when it was
announced that Rear Admiral Crown
inshield, chief OF the bureau of navi-
agtion, would be suspended before
the usual term of four years tor which
he was chosen expires. His successor
will be Rear Admiral Taylor, and
Crowinshield, who took the lead in
securing court of inquiry for Schley,
will be deported to Europe, there to
take charge of the new European
station.
1t is a current report that when
Theodore Roosevelt was assistant
secretary Of the navy he clashed
with Crowinshield, and this, besides
his intense partisanship for Schley,
is set forth as reason for the bureau
chiefs removal. It is said Crownin-
shield fatty opposed bringing the
Oregon around the Horn to Cuban
waters, while Mr.. Roosevelt as strong.
ly favored it, and won, with Secre.
tary Longs help.
Officials of the navy department
unhesitatingly say that it is honey
eombed with a partisan feeling fol
Sampson. These admissions, coupled
with the Hackett and Crowninshiele
developments, are what caused the
expectation Of thorough overhaul

Manila, Oct. 31.-Malvar has issued

Immediately as traitor. Those who

CONDITIONS IN cEBu.
Lack of Food Having It's Effect Upon Natives
One Cause Of Samar Trouble.

Manila, Oct. 3O.-The constabulary
report fight with insurgents near
Passi, province of lIo Ilo, island of
Panay, in which 25 insurgents were
killed, together with a quantity of
arms and ammunition captured.
News from General Hughes regard
ing conditions in Cebu are encourag-
ing. Lorega surrendered with his
entire force and one cannon and
seven rifles, while General Hughes is
negotiating for the surrender of
Maxilo, who styles himself Governor
Politico- -Militar. His surrender will
mean the paciication of the island.
Lack OF food and the harrassing
effects of the aggressive tactics now
pursued by the American forces are
having their influence upon the ma
tives. In many places, where rice is
doled out by the government, only
enough is given for one meal, SO that
| it is hardly possible for any large
amount to fin6 it's way to the insurg-
ents. 1t is believed that the recent
manifestations in the leland of Sama1
were chiefly due to the lack of food.
The first labor problem growing out
of the new tariff has arisen. A hat
and umbrella factory, employing 60C
hands, has found it necessary to close.
The lawyers are making a protest to
the commission, urging protection,
as the same goods from Germany car
be sold at half the price it takes tc
manufacture them here.
In an attack by insurgents on the
municipal police and scouts at sa
bang, one scout was killed and two O.
the police were captured. The in.
surgents secured two Krag- J Jorgensor
rifles, two shotguns and 200 rounds
of ammunition.
