THE WATER FRONT.
A Little Correction Touching the First
Boat at Nome.


Since the discovery of the Nome gold
fields three years ago and the conse.
quent rush and stampede to the dig
gings there has been a contest among
transportation men as to whose ves-
sci will be the first to reach there
each season. The place is only open
for vessels from the outside between
May and the first of November. At
other times of the year the Artic ice
prevents any steamer from reaching
within hundreds of miles of the beach.
Last year the contest for the honor
of being the first boat" was more
severe than usual. This arose fron
the fact that there were SO many
ships on the Nome run and that there
had been practically no news of the
camp all winter. The camp itsel:
was practically isolated. It has been
said that this honor belongs to the
steam whaler jeanne. This statement
is denied by people who were at the
camp all winter: A copy of the Nome
Gold Digger of the date of May Il,
1900, gives the particulars of the ar
rival of the first boat that year and
the year preceding. The first IL
break the silence of the Arctic sea was
the whaling bark Alexander, cora
manded by Captain B. T. Tilton. She
arrived in the harbor of Nome at IL
O'Clock on the morning of May 81 and
her arrival was the signal for gener-
al rejoicing among the residents OF
the camp. The Jeanie got in on the
23d. The Alexander left San Fran
cisco on April s, and had a rough
and tempestuous voyage Of %
days to Dutch harbor. The Alex
ander had but one passenger. d. A.
Sutherland Of the A. E. company.
The Gold Digger on the date Of the
arrival of the first boat prints as news
from the outside the fact that the
Boer war was still being vigorously
carried on and a rumor that Admiral
Dewey was to run for President.
For the year before the first boat"
distinction belongs to the little schoon-
er Bear. This small vessel arrived
in the harbor of Nome about the first
of June. After her came the three
steam whalers, Thrasher, Grampus
and Bowhead. They arrived of the
coast on June 5. but did not land un.
til three days later. Afterwards
came the steam schooner Albion and
then the regular vessels of the trans
portation companies, such as the Ber-
tha, Garonne and Roanoke began to
come in.
The steamer Faralion and Victorian
sailed last evening for Skagway. The
Victorian carried 80 passengers and
the Farallon ten. About thirty.two
employees of the White Pass & Yukon
went up on the Victorian. She also

FLYER LEAVES RAILS.
Great Northern Train Was Making so
Miles an Hour.

Miles an Hour.
OF the accident which occurred in
Minneapolis Thursday morning, the
Times has the following:
While running fifty miles an hour
the Great Northern flyer" shot from
the track near the university this
morning, but most wonderfully no
great damage was done. The possi-
bilities for serious loss of life was
frightful. Two ponderous locomotives
with the weight Of five heavy passen.
ger coaches behind them missed the
supports of the Fifteenth avenue Sc
bridge by foot. A Como interurban
car was on the bridge at the time and
eye-witnesses to the accident shivered
in fright as they saw the great engines
plunging wildly toward the bridge. BY
a miracle, it seemed the engine miss
ed, and before the Fourth street bridge
was reached the coaches had dug SO
deep into the soil that the momentum
OF the train was overcome.
No one was hurt, but there were
several hundred feet of Great North
ern track badly in need of repair; one
engine with it's rear tender gone, an
other with it's under work badly twist
ed and five coaches which need re-
pairs.
The wreck attracted thousands of
people, mostly "U" students. An ex-
press van and four passenger coaches
were tilted at an angle which would
have caused them to capsize had not
the trucks been buried in the earth.
Three of the coaches were we'll filled,
mostly with women and children.
The train which met with the mis-
hap was the second section of the
Great Northern flyer" which left St.
Paul at 9:35 this morning. About
twenty minutes later when it was
about at Oak street Sc, Minneapolis,
the rear truck of the tender of the
first engine left the track. No one
seemed to have noticed the accident,
for the train kept on at the usual rate
of speed for probably 1000 feet. De-
tween Seventeenth and Sixteenth av-
enues a switch was encountered and
here her serious trouble began. The
first engine was pulled of the track
and with it went the second. likewise
the baggage car and four coaches.
The remaining four coaches broke off,
and, as this released the air brakes, the
section was brought to a
sudden halt.
The front section bumped along at
fierce clip heading for the bridge.
The engine crews saw the danger,
but stood to their posts. One fire.
man coolly ventured bet on the
chance of hitting the Interurban car
which was then crossing the bridge.
The monster engines, Nos. POS and
958, crushed through the ties-which
did not look like the soundest in the
world-as If they had been made of

THE WEEK IN PETROLEUM.

AS a rule the field developments differed little
last week from those of several months past No
new pools have been found, althoush every effort
has been made in the likely quarters. and the
question of producing territory is serious
one Even the slight extensions which have been
made in former pools give little promise of increas-
ing production. and old producers are now being
stimulated in order to get what little oil there
may be left The Fink Creek development in Lewis
County, w. Va, which has been looked upon
promising, proved a distinct disappointment. The
South Penn Oil Company we'll the Fahey Farm
turned out to be a duster In the Gantz sand 1t

showing an extension to the limit already defined.
In the Big Injun development in Ritchie County
the outlook Is more promising than for many
months. The Carter OIL Company completed it's
second we'll on the Flanagan farm and found
100 barrel producer. In Calhoun County, on yell
farm 1t began to flow at twenty barrels
hour, and for the first day it had record of $50
barrels. In the Sand Fork district the Guffey
Company has n small producer. and in the Garner
pool near the Little Germany development, the
South Penn OIL Company test we'll is holding up at
SIXTY barrels a day. Some activity is shown in
hopes that the drilling going on In this
tion may show this TO be at least a moderate pro-
ducng district.

Local bankers believe that the outward move
rnent OF currency is drawing to a close, al
though It is generally believed that a return
flow will not set in for several weeks. The re
mort of foreign commerce for September received
in the week shows a falling off in exports and
an increase in imports as compared with the
corresponding month year ago. Indeed, eX-
ports were less than in September, 1873 as
well as in 1900 The total, however, amounted
in value to S1O6. .S95.774 a decrease of over
100000 from August. and upward OF 3d.

of exports over imports was in value S59'o9too

The decrease in exports this year was made up
