sengers and $500. 900 in .Klondike
gold. The treasure was distributed
between . dozen, passengers from Daw-

terror subsequent to July 4, and bring
news that three OF the river steamers
are partly wrecked on the river be-
tween Dawson and White Horse.
The Humboldt left Skagway July9.
A strange feature ooncefning the
personnel Of the Humboldt's Dawson
passengers ia the fact that four, women
possess about one-third Of the treasure
which came out on the steamer.
Purser Shoup reports that. consid-
erable gold has been started down
the river from Dawson and will come
out via 30. Michael and the ocean

left Dawson after July !, but the
exact amount is not known. It will

Vancouver, B. c., July 1s.-Ths
Developments in the Fraser river
strike situation during the past n
hours show the union fishermen have
the upper hand, having accomplished
coup d'etat which is without par
allel in the history Of the many labor
disturbances in British Columbia. Az
. result Of . battle OF small boats out
in the gulf . battle in which shots
were exchanged but in which no COM
bstant was killed, 16; japanese were
taken prisoners by the strikers. The
japanese boats were overturned, the
rifles and fishing gear Of the Orientals
thrown into the water, and the Japan
ese themselves taken to one of the
small islands away out in the gulf.
Exactly where this island is located
is secret of the white fishermen, for
they chose it several weeks ago for oc-
casions such - this They say they
will continue to place non-union jap
anese there for the remainder of tha
season, or until the place is discov-
cred by the authorities. All that is
known is that the island is between
here and Nanaimo, 80 miles away,
and that it is hard to find. The jap
anese will be given food every few
days and maintained comfortably,
although closely guarded until set

Two provincial constables were out
in Japanese boats today and effected
the arrest of six. white fishermen.
The Japanese held a big meeting at
Steveston and raised by voluntary
subscriptions q, 900 for q Japanese
hospital, which they think may be
needed, and then discussed the salmon
catching situation. Some were in
favor of joining the union men in the
strike especially as the run of salmon
had been small this season up to date.
The meeting broke up without definite
action.
This evening big run of salmon
is reported as coming in from the
south. The Gamers think the union
men will not stand firm, in view of
the temptation to participate in their
catching. There is renewed talk this
evening of turning out the militia.
Such severe storm ragged at the
mouth of the Fraser river last night
that the union patrol boats, which
were to have attacked the Japanese
fishermen, were afraid to leave Stew
enston... The Japanese kept coming
during the night without fish. Five
Japanese are reported to have been
drowned.
