CONSIDERING SETTLEMENT.

This was busy day for President Shaffer
and the executive officials of the Amalgamated
association There was a steady stream of
callers from early in the morning and in
Vulnerable conferences bearing on the proposed
settlement Of the strike President Shaffer was

STRIKE situation until after the meeting te-rnor-

was enough to excite the men, however. and IL
the discovery had not been made that there was
really no work of production the delayed trouble
would have arrived.
The strikers and their pickets were chagrined
TO learn that men had been taken into the
plants without their knowledge, and some IN
temperate words would have kindled the IN
aammable natures that have been fretting at
inactivity. The bad feeling was intensified py
the general knowledge that the strike has virtu-
ally been settled, and that the meeting Of the
AmaIgamated Association executive board to-
morrow is more of a ratification than anything
else The men seem 10 feel that attempts TO
start the plants at this late day was deliberate
effort TO create trouble, which would have been
furnished with all cheerfuness had an earnest
effort been made TO turn out sheets at Mckees-
port or tinplate at Monessen or Demmier.
At the headquarters or the Amalgamated As
sociation the utmost cheerfulness prevailed.
President Shaffer and Secretary Williams, al
though showing the effects of the strain to which
they have been subjected. were smiling and
seemingly contented Secretary Williams said
that he could not in honor discuss any part of
che proposition. even 10 hintlng at It's contents,
until it had been disposed of by the executive
board. He admitted that the statements re-
garding the terms of the offer made by Mr..
Morgan were clever guesses. In every way ex-
cept a direct expression in words. both Presi-
dent Shaffer and Secretary Williams made IL
plain that they regarded the proposition with
favor and expected that the executive board
would take the same view, ending the strike
officially.
Repairs are under way at several of the plants
that have been idle since the strike was de-
c1area, and some OF them will not be able to
run for several days after the order to resume
is given to the workers. At all of the mills in
and close by this city extensive repairs
being made, the first in a year, and badly
needed. Al the larger plants, such the big
rinplate plants at Demmler and Monessen, the
refairs have been completed and tests are made
of the rolls and other machinery every day. 1t
is that which has caused much excitement
among the strikers at intervals, as ii plain
enough that al least a part of the machinery
wss in operation. These plants will be ready TO
turn out their usual products at a days notice.

In addition Co sthis seeds will be placed along the sides of the streets in the residence portion of the city and other conspicuous places.
 Since the inauguration of the scheme there has been an unprecedented de mand for flower seeds. and every pack age ol the bachelor variety has been disposd of. This is one of the best kinds to cultivate here as it grows very thrifty.
 Other measures for beautiiying and improving the city are in contempla' ton. but are not ready to be 1ade public.

VIII Shoot Loose Dogs

Especial Dispatch to Daily Alaskan.l
 Dawson, May S.-Notices to the effect that all loose dogs will be shot after 24 hours duration were posted very conspieuously. about the city to- day. The summary action was made necessary by the large number of dogs which have gone mad. Many people have been bitten by them, and several are on the sick list. Some of them are suffering intensely and they may die. The promiscuous roaming about of these canines became such menace to the public that the action taken today was the only thing left to be done to guarantee the people measure of pro- tection at least.
 Several dogs went violently mad yes terday. They caused great excitement on the principal streets for it was fear ed they would bite some of the pedes- trains before the latter could get to places of safety.

AGENT AT WHlIE HORSE
Harry Chamber. wni Supply AiAs-
 kan Subscribers Over There

Mir. Harry Chambers is the Daily Alaskans route agent at White Horse and has already secured a list of 80 subscribers in the river town. This in addition to the 100 copies sent daily by the mail gives the Daily Alaskan a good circulation over there. But Mir. Chambers is very ambitious young man and he will increase his number at least three fold during the next 90 days.
 Within two hours after the Daih Alaskan comes off the press the papers for White Horse are on their way over. Mir. Chambers meets the train promptly and serves his subscribers without delay. The service is much appreciated by the customers as it is the earliest moment they can receive the news of the previous days hap penings.
 When the river opens the Daily Alaskan will be distributed just as promptly in the Dawson and Atlin countries.
 Advertisers in Skagway are rapidly realizing the superior benefits Of a medium which. circulates generally in an of the tributary country to. one re, stricted to a very limited local cir eulation. They want to speak to the public and the only way they can do it is to use the Daily Alaskan, for it cov- CTS the field thoroughly.
 In addition to acting as route agent at White Horse Mir. Chambers has charge of the sales Of the paper on the cars. Many copies are thus disposed of daily on the inbound train and here again the advertiser has a direct ad. vantage by using tbe columns of the Daily Alaskan.

Special Dispatch to Daily Alaskan.l
 Dawson, May S.-The war against concessions has been fairly opened and it promises to result in the greatest legal contest ever fought out in the Yukon Territory Eminent counsel has been retained on both sides and the various movements will not only be watched closely by the attorneys and the public of this country. but will be of interest to the mining world.
 Watson and Doyle have already been sued and tomorrow suits will be filed against Brenson, Ray. Milne, Boyle and several others.
 The general ground of dispute is whether those to whom the conces- sions were granted have been living up to the terms imposed by the govern ment. The complainants allege they have not
 Some very sensational testimon, may be given at the hearing of several causes, for in some of the suits strong Iintiuaiions are made that the posses sion of the properties was obtained IT, legally.
 In the other cases the general charge that the properties are not being work

 Nearly everybody in the city is inter ested in knowing bo" the matter will be finally adjusted, and a good many think that the holders of the conees' sions in litigation have not put forth an honest effort to do the work ex' acted of them when they obtained the grants.

GOOD COAL
Test Made on Local Railroad
 of White Horse Product
Tho Stsaming Qualities Were All Right and tho Article May Be Usod to Fire on the COmpany's Rivor Boats This soasOn

Facts have been made ~ublic about the semi-ofiicial test recently made Of the product of the coal mines opened up a year ago on the upper Yukon river. near White Horse. The test was made by Engineer MeGee. running a locomotive on tho White Pass & Yp kon railway from White Horse to this city. The fuel was taken at depth of some twenty-five feet and although there was some frost and dirt in 1t, the test resulted most satisfactorily. In his report to the company, the engineer stated that the coal burned freely. with good steaming qualities and no clink- CTS.
 As far as known this is the first test of the coal found in the upper Yukon vall,v. The importance of the discoy- cry lies in the fact that such fuel is greatly needed on the river steamers of the White Pass Route. Cordwood
 is used under present circumstances, costing SIS per cord. The substitution of coal is regarded as only a matter of short time. By its use the steam CTS can be operated more economical. ly than now and better speed made. ii is stated

 From other sources it is learned that there are still about three and a hali feet of snow on the level now in the Porcupine basin. If the weather had continued warm a large portion of this would have disappeared by this time.

Have fragrant blossoms. Many others are fragrant only when crushed.
 There is one which is fragrant in bloom and fragrant also when it's ripened fruit is crushed and made into a drink. NWe know it as coffee.
 To enjoy the most delicious fra grance of coffee in it's highest state of perfection you should buy what you are sure is coffee, pure and simple, without any adulteration.
 Chase & Sanborn's Coffee is a pure coffee. What is more, it is the best coffee that can be raised by experienced planters. Furthermore every bean is selected and the same care is maintained in roasting and packing, until it reaches the con sumers' hands.
 Because it is pure it is healthful and the price at which it sells IS so little in advance of cheaper grades that one stops and wonders why any one should not always have Chase & Sanborn's Seal Brand Coffee, or any one of their high grade brands which come in parch- ment lined colored bags.

No Discussion Took Place Between Him anG

swer Not indicated.
(By the Associated Press }

London Jan. limited States Ambas-
sador Choate presented the Hay -Paunce-
fote Treaty amendments to the Secretary
of State for Foreign Affairs, the Marquis
of Lansdowne. today
No discussion occurred and the nature
of Lord Lansdowne's answer is not indi-
Gated. Mr.. Choate simply notified the Sec
retary of State for Foreign Affairs that
he had sent him q document forwarded
by the State Department. An answer
probably Will not be sent until the Cabi-
net discusses the matter fully.
The interview between Mr.. Choate and
Lord Lansdowne was chiefly devoted to
an expression of the latter's views on
Chinas answer to the demands of the
powers
1t is understood that Secretary Hay de-
sired to know what Great Britain thought
of those points which China, in her an
swer said she was unable TO fulfill at
present No difference of opinion appears
to exist between Secretary Hay and Lord
Lansdowne. While further negotiations
between the powers are necessary it is
believed there are no very serious diff
culties in the way of a settlement that
will be satisfactory to all nations.
