FUNERAL OF H. H. LOGAN
Attended by a Large Procession of
 Mourning Friends.

The funeral of IT. 1T. Logan was held yesterday afternoon from the residence on East Washington street and a large number of friends followed the remains to the cemetery. The family of MT. Logan came here from Los Angeles, th= remains being escorted to Phoenix from Guaymas by friend of the de- ceased.
 The casket was borne by Messrs. w. T. Smith. c. F. Ainsworth. T. E. Dal- ton, J. F.. Walker. J. W. Crenshaw and E. A. Fickas. all former friends of the dead man. At the cemetery Rev E. A. Penick read an impressive funeral cere- mony and the last earthly tributes thac can be paid by men were laid at the bier of one who was loved. honored ani respected by the community at large.
 Of his sudden illness and unexpected death it has been learned that some time ago he wrote from Guaymas to his family in Los Angeles that he was quite i'll, but thought he would be bet ter in a few days and as soon as he felt strong enough to travel would leave for Los Angeles. He did improve great ly and wrote to that effect and the very morning of his death he was so much better that a friend had brought him a nourishing breakfast. But the i'm provement was only the seeming change for the better that so often pre- cedes dissolution.

Friday afternoon, Gibson said, Miss Thompson called on him, told him that the accountants had closed their office and semed very anxious to find Fenton. Gibson learned later, he says, that Fen ton left New York the next morning
 It was only a few hours after her in effectual search for Fenton that the Gibson said that he address was P West Fifteenth street. There is boarding house at that number. Re porters who went there last night were told that Miss Thompson had stayed there for two weeks beginning October 27, that she talked like an English wo- man, ate her breakfast in bed every morning and acted in other ways like an English woman" She said she had come from the Margaret Louisa home, a Y w. c. A. club and home for young women in Sixteenth street near Fifth avenue, and when she left she said she was going there to live.
 It was said at the home last night that Miss Thompson had stayed there recently for two days, but left the home on Friday. She met with no accident there it was said. Nothing was known about her male friend.
 Miss Thompson is reported to have said that she came over from England on the same steamer with Fenton and afterward visited the n-American exposition with him.

DANGEROUS DOLLAR
The Commercial Community Came to Find Out That the Parity of the Omnipresent Mexican Dollar With Gold Could Not Be Sustained. In Consequence There is Great Alarm - Remedial Legislation Needed.

Manila, Dec. 1-The financial situa- tion in the Philippine islands is caus- ing much alarm. In an interview pub lished in Manila, Henry c. Ide. chief of the department of finance and justice, referred to the probable enforcement of the alteration in the immediate future of the present government parity of the two Mexican dollars for one gold dollar.
 The United States postoffice here now refuses, except to government employees. to issue money orders in exchange for Mexican silver. The banks of Manila have been making Kfom to s per cent on exchange. Merchants and others are forced to carry their accounts in Mexican silver.
 The commercial community had re- lied upon the United States Philippine commission to continue the value of the two Mexican dollars for one gold dol lar. which the commission itself creat- ed. The commission is unable to act in the matter without the authority of congress. This authorization has been requested and Charles A. Conant, a special commissioner of the war de- partment, has been sent to investigate the state of coinage and banking in the Philippines and report to the sec retary of war and make recommenda- tions for remedial legislation.
 He is now in Washington and is the bearer of the commissions views in this matter. There are stores in Manila that have been compelled to accept two Mexican dollars for one gold dollar.

THE SENATE.

Washington, Dec. 1-The annual message of President Roosevelt will not be received until Tuesday. On this account the session or the senate Mon day will be exceedingly brief. It is not now expected that anything will be done on that day beyond the announce ment of the death of Senator Kyle. fol- lowing which the senate, in accordance with custom, will adjourn for the day.
 On Tuesday the presidents message will be read and after its reading the announcement of the death of Presi- dent Mckinley will follow at once whereupon under a precendent estab- lished when Presidents Lincoln and Garfield were killed, resolutions pro viding for the appointment of a com mittee to act with similar committee of the house of representatives to take appropriate action relative to the mat ter, and then calling for the immediate adjournment for the day will be adopt ed. Heretofore committees have been appointed to arrange details of public exercises and it is understood that ac- companying the plan to be pursued in this instance that later in the session some public man of distinction will be invited to deliver a eulogy in the capi- tol
 Wednesday and Thursday will be de- voted to the introduction of bills. As usual there will be a flood of them Among the first bills of importance to be presented will be the ship subsidy bill, which Till be introduced by Sena- tor Frye and the Nicaraguan canal bill which Senator Morgan will present. Senator Frye has not entirely complet- ed his bill. but it is said today that it would be different in many details from the old bill c.t last session. That meas ure was framed by former Senator Ed munds. Senator Frye himself is the author of the new bill. Senator Nor gan's canal bill will be a duplicate of Representative Hepburn's bill on the canal question.
 Other early bills of importance will be one looking to the construction of submarine cable from the western coast of the United States to Hawaii

COPPER MINE FRAUD
Sends New York Grocers Into Bank.
 ruptcy.

New York, Dec. In the filing yes terday of a petition in bankruptcy against N. Lawrence & Co. of Dobbs Ferry on behalf of Austin Nichols & Co. and F. C. Hazard 6 Co.. wholesale grocers. and H. H. Palmer & Co, tea merchants, there was afforded a hint of an interesting examination into T recent copper mine deal. The man who, by all accounts, paid for the copper deal was Nathaniel Lawrence, a partner to N. Lawrence & Co.
 The firm has had a grocery and feed store in Dobbs Ferry for nearly 30 years. Nathaniel Lawrence. according to his lawyer, c. F. Travis. was induc- ed to sink some s5O,O0O in a copper mine. which according to Lawrence and his lawyer. has turned out to be a myth and the promoters" who boomed it are now in parts unknown.
 On Nov. 14 Lawrence S Co. made q general assignement, and the petition in bankruptcy was filed yesterday by Lawyer Edwin c. Harvey in behalf of the three creditors. whose claims az gregate about s7,J00
 Lawyer Travis said tonight that steps had already been taken to prosecute criminally the alleged copper mine swindlers.

Washington. Dec. 1.-The program for the opening day in the house to- morrow although it will follow rigidly the routine precedents, will be interest ing and to a certain extent picturesque. Admission to galleries will be by card, of which two have been issued to each member. They will no doubt be crowd ed to the fullest capacity. The desks of popular members will be laden with flowers. The clerk of the house will call the members to order at noon after a prayer by the chaplain. The roll will be called by states. The speaker will be formally elected and escorted to the chair by committee.
 General Henderson. whose reelection as speaker is assured, will then ad- dress the house, after which MT. Bing- ham of Pennsylvania. the father of the house, a titular honor bestowed upon the oldest member in point of continu- ous service, will administer the oath to him. The speaker in turn will ad- minister the oath to the members elect The old officers of the house who were re-chosen by the republican eau GUS will then be reelected and sworn in.
 Following this resolutions will be adopted to appoint committees to in form the president and the senate that
  son speaker and MT. Mcdowell clerk. By resolution Speaker Henderson will appoint committee of three to point a similar committee from the senate to inform the president that a quorum Of the two houses has assembled and that congress is ready to receive any com munication he may have to make. Res olutions to adopt temporarily the rules of the last house and fix the daily hour
  of the opening day, the annual seat drawing.
 The presidents message will be with held until Tuesday. General Grosvenor of Ohio will probably make the an nouncement to the house of the death of the late President Mckinley and offer resolutions upon which the house will act.
 On Tuesday that portion of the pres ident's message referring to the death of President Mckinley will probably be referred to a select committee to ar range a program of eulogies.
 It is a remarkable coincidence that President Mckinley was chairman of the committee which arranged the pro- gram when President Garfield died. MT. Blaine pronounced q eulogy upon that occasion. Elihu B. Washburn was chairman when Lincoln died and George Bancroft, the historian, was the orator.
 After Tuesday the house will proba- bly adjourn for three days at a time until the congress recesses for the Christmas holidays. Speaker Hender- son will occupy this time in preparing the committee lists which will be an- nounced as soon as the house convenes after the holidays. Practically no bus mess will be transacted before the holi- days.

PASSENGER LOST AT SEA.
Either Swept off by Heavy Sea Or He
 Jumped Overheard.

Boston, Dec. IA second cabin pass enger on the Dominion liner Common wealth, supposed to be Arthur Bolton of Toronto, Ont, was found to be miss ing from the steamship just before Bos- ton Light was sighted this morning. It is believed that he was washed over board during the night or leaped into the water.
 Bolton appeared at supper last night and was last seen about o'clock in the evening. He was then wandering abouI the ship. This morning it was found that his bed had not been slept in and his roommate could give no explana- ton of his absence.
 Bolton was one of the last to come aboard the ship at Liverpool. He had not arranged for passage, but was ac- commodated at the last moment. He had one trunk. He appeared like a man who had been through some sc- were illness and associated very lit c with his fellow passengers. However, it was learned that he was a civil en- gineer, that when the Klondike starn- pede set in he had gone there, and re- mained some time. It is said that more recently he had been in India and that he had beeen treated in a Singapore hospital for malarial fever.
 Many Of the passengers had their a. tention attracted to him by his evident efforts to keep out of their way. He always seemed to be deep in thought. Nobody noticed Bolton go on deck, most of the passenger being seasick. The ship was pitching and rolling in rho seas and every now and then a wave dashed the length of the deck and some of the passengers think the missing man was swept away.

DWINULING DOWN
Casualties of the San Francisco Ferry
 Boat Disaster.

San Francisco. Dec. 1.-The number of lives lost in last nights collision in the bay between the ferry boats San Rafael and Sansalito is still a matter of conjecture and will probably never be accurately determined. So far as known late this afternoon only three persons are actually known to be miss ing. They are w. C.. Crondall, secre- tary of Syrup Refining works, this city, a resident of Sasaulito; George Tread way, a waiter on the San Raefael, and the 3-year-ol son of Mrs. Walter of Ross valley.
 Out Of all the conflicting stories told by survivors none appeared that posi- lively asserts that some friend or reIa- tive is missing. The officers of the sunken vessel strongly maintain that nearly all were saved. About twenty people were injured. The only body recovered so far is one supposed to be that of Crondall. It was washed ashore at Angel Island this morning.

NEW TRANsCONTINENTAL LINE
In Which Senator Clark Is Inter
 ested.

Denver, Dec. 1.-The Denver Post says: Senator William A Clark of Montana and Thomas F. Walsh of Col orado have. it is rumored. joined issues
 in railroad construction and will build practically new transcontinental rail road. The Chicago, Rock Island & Pa cific is said to be in with Senator Clark and MT. Walsh. The new transconti- mental line would give Senator Clark an outlet for his Los Angeles Salt Lake road, which has been left without one through the absorption of the two Col orado mountain lines by George Gould.
 The Rock Island would get new and short route to California. Walsh some time ago incorporated a railroad to be built from Ouray via GUnnison to~Pu- eblo. If his alliance with Senator Clark is perfected he will build on probably to Liberal, kas., where he will connect his road with the Rock Island. It is said that Senator Clark and Walsh will meet this week in Washington and complete a deal whereby they will be- come partners in railroad construction.

GOLD OF THE ARCTIC
Will Figure Largely in Next
 Years Output
Some Rich Finds Made Late in the Season in New Regions-Railroad and Telephone Connections Are Talked of.

Seattle, Dec. 1.-According to those who have been closely watching the de- velopment of the gold fields of the north for the past few years the Arctic region will next year attract large at tention.
 Miners who have claims in the Kee- walik river creeks consider themselves as slightly more fortunate than those
 having claims in other portions of the far north. The KeewaliN river district contains a very large quantity of spruce timber F to IS inches in diame-
 ter and from 50 to 50 feet long. Those who have engaged in mining in Alaska know what an abundance of timber means.
 On the Kougarok river, the first river west of the Keewalik, there have also
 been located some splendid prospects, especially on French, Bear, Chicago,
 Circle and Wade creeks. Some very
 rich finds have also been made on
 Emnachuck river, three miles west of
 the Kougarok, and also on the tribu-
 taries to that river. Old Glory, Perry
 and Silver creeks are rlcn in gold, and some remarkable pans have been
 washed out by miners working there. Another stream which promises very
 rich developments is the Good Hope
 river and it's tributaries, Placer, Espa-
 ranza, Clark, Jamiscn, Igloo, Summit
 and other creeks. These various creeks promise to become as rich as Candle creek has been proved to be, where
 pans from 50 cents to S19 were washed
 out last summer.
 A great deal of work will undoubtedly be done at the upper end of the Kee-
 walik river during the next season. ! There is plenty of fine timber there and over fifty men have remained there ! to continue work during the winter. These men are working on Stanley, GlaZier, Gold Run and Dome creeks. During the past season on some creeks tributary to the Keewalik pans have been taken out containing from S5 to S20 in gold. On Candle creek Louis Sundquist. who is well known in Seat tie, took out pan of S19. On this
 same creek two men took out 23 ounces ! in one day.
 Gold Run, Stanley and Glazier were l located by two men who were staked ! by Thomas and Pepper two years ago. 1 Good Hope river district promises to
 become well known during the coming
 season, and miners. who have been there prophecy big things from that stream.
 Transportation to the Arctic district [ is no more difficult than to Nome. The t 1NNGN diAN llNtI fS IeNlSdDlt TUT Sltdul | launches 75 miles from the mouth. By
 water the district is about 4G0 miles I from Nome. and by land POO miles. | Already there is talk of railway con- nection with Nome, and it is quite l likely that all of the Arctic camps will | be connected by telephone with Nome
 some time next season. With railroad ' connection the Arctic district will be
 no further away from civilization than | is Nome, and Nome is rapidly becom- | ing a center of civilizing influence. ! There are a large number of men in ! Seattle now who spent the summer in 1 the Arctic district, and all of them | talk most encourag gingIy of the pros poets there.

WARNED THE INCONSISTENCIES
Blasts From Horns Sounded the News
 of the Approach of Officers.

Richmond, Va, Dec. Limited States Revenue Collector Asa Rogers of this district received reports today from the postoffice, in Carroll county, d rugged ing that all their efforts at raiding il- licit stills this season had been thwart- ed by the use Of horns with thorough system of signals which were taken up from every cabin in the mountain territory where the moonshiners were known to be doing business. Near Pick postoffice, in Corrol county, a rugged country, long tin horn would be sounded as the officers approached. The sound would be taken up ahead Of them by the occupants of the next mountain home and inthis way their coming was told over the whole coun- try. and their visit made SO public that they were forced to leave the country. giving up their hunt for illicit distil- leries. Not only did the moonshiners through the trumpet blasts have ample time to remove every trace of their il- licit brandy making. but the took ven geance on the man who informed the revenue officers by burning his house and that of his brother-in-Iaw.

and another providing for the estab- lishment Of 9 new executive depart ment to be known as the department of commerce.
 On Thursday the senate will adjourn until the following Monday. The gen. eral opinion among senators is that very little real work will be done before the Christmas holidays.
 The first subject demanding attention Is reciprocity. Various treaties are now pending in the senate looking to conl- mercial agreements between the Unit ed States and other countries. Senator Aldrich will renew his efforts to have those treaties which already have been reported from the committee on foreign relations referred to the committee on finance, on the ground that they deal with tariff questions. The friends of the treaties will oppose this demand and preliminary skirmish is expect ed to ensue and will probably serve to develop some interesting features.
