NOTHING OFFICIAL
To Base Their Hopes on. but sre
Hilsriously Happy Over the
Prosp ects Of OustiDg Bur-
tons Arch Enemy,
Hitchcock.

The Kansas City Star of yester-
day contains the following Wash
ington news:
David Mulvane. OF Kansas. was
the central figure in the cabinet
gossip and speculation this morn
ing. The Kansas delegation heard
that be was SLATE d TO succeed E.A.
Hitchcock az secretary OF the inte-
rior. Mr. Mulvane had evidently
heard the rumor and was not to be
found anywhere, but all Of bis per-
eonal friends were exultant. Close
friends OF Secretary Hitchcock,
when appealed to, declared that he
had no intention OF resigning and
had been assured by the president
that he was wanted in the cabinet.
One senator who had long per-
sonal talk with Secretary Hitch
cock las, week declared that he
would not resign. Despite all this
some of the cabinet builders la
sisted that Mulvane would be
Hitchcock's successor and associa-
ted IL with the selection OF Henry
G. Payne as postmaster general.
"It was declared that Roosevelt
was catering TO the west and made
no secret tor bis preference for
capable friends. Mulvane is a
ollege graduate and man OF ca
paciiy, il was argued, and just the
kind OF a man Roosevelt would de-
light TO honor. The conspicuous
part he played at the Philadelphia
convention in working for Roose-
welt is rebearsed. and likewise the
unsuccessful effort made by Le-
land to discredit him with the ma
tional committee. In the national
C ommitiee fight Henry c. Payne
" as the aggressive friend OF Null
vane. Mulvane is known to have
behind him the strongest infu-
ences in Kansas, and the delega
ton from that state has recognized
that he would be the most avail
able man TO urge for q conspicu-
Que appointment.
"Senator Burton and Secretary
Hitchcock have moi been on friend
ly terms since one of the five CIV
ihzed tribes entered into an agree
msnt to pay Burton 5000 a year
to represent them here. This was
in the Mckinley administration
before Burton was senator and
when be needed the money. On
the ground they did not need him
Secretary Hitchcock refused to au-
thorize the Indians to employ
Burton.

In voting against an ordinance to ex-
tend the time for the completion Of the
Bond street Improvement Mr.. Hansen
last night made an explanation to tthe
council. The contractor concerned is
G.. q. Paimberg, and Mr.. Hansen said
the impression had gone out that II
was personal matter This, how
ever. was mistake. The councilman
was opposed 10 extending the time for
making improvements, and said he
would never again vote for a measure
Of the kind, He quoted Mr.. Paimberg
as saying that he (the contractorJ had
no Idea that he could make the inn
progsment In the stipulated time when
ha accepted the contract. but that he
relied upon an extension OF time TO fn'-
III his agreement. Mr.. Hansen believed
this ldea was wrong and therefore vot-
cd galnst the bill. Mr.. Morton held
the same idea and announced that
measures OF the kind would hereafter
receive his antagonism. Mr.. Wright
added that. II the councilmen persist
ed In their plan. little street improving
would be accomplished.

Fire Chief stockton stated yesterday
in conversation with representative

prank The keys 10 the Are alarm
boxes are left In the netghborhood OF
the boxes, aud In the case OF the FRI
dag night alarm the hoys had gone 10
the rrullingcr residence aud secured
the key. While the three hose wagons
were out TO the false alarm from West
Astoria. an alarm came In from the
extreme eastern portion OF the city.
This second alarm was the result Of
prank played by boys, although The
man who turned It In acted In good
faith. Had there been u fire in the
east end however, that portion OF the
city would have been without fife pro-
lection. The chief thinks the boys

X, J. Safer, superintendent OF the
cannery at Cooks inlet operated oy
the Alaska Salmon association has
much OF n,eres. to say of the northern
regions he has so recently vacated
The especial point where Mr., Safer
was located is Tyonik where there are
In all three canneries In active opera
ton during The canning season, The
cannery managed by Mr.. Safer dou-
bled It's pack over that of last year,
there being plenty OF fish and the
works having been enlarged to accom-
modate an Increase OF the business
The region in and about Cooks inlet
Is rich N minerals and productive In
oil and more people are constantly
streaming In, The largest settlement
In the region Of western Alaska is Ko-
diak on Kodiak island which has
population of 1000 people. Sunrise,
situated on the northern side of Cooks
inlet during the summer months has
5000 population but rs soon as the Win
ter sets In the place becomes practical
ly deserted. Kodiak island Is noted
for good quartz so that tthe mining
done there is more of substantial
order, heavy capital backing up each
move. In other regions It Is quite
different, particularly Ilamba bay
which besides being worked for Its oil
resources is greatly sought after for
Its placer mines. The population in
districts, which Mr.. Safer visited on
this district Is therefore rather fluctu-
ating. The Valdese and Copper rivers
his return abounds In copper OF ex-
cellent quality and rare abundance,
Something like 3O0,0OI tons had been
removed from shaft 800 feet deep and
this vast quantity OF ore was to be
seen lying about Ia heaps Surveyors
are now at work laying out a line for
a railroad into this copper region, and
1t is stated by those who know that II
win be one Of the best paying roads in
the country. The Alaska Central
railway is another company designed
for the purpose of opening up the min
eral regions of the north. A line Is
now being surveyed between Cooks In
let and Resurrection bay. 1t is the in
tention to eventually extend the road
to Behering sea, Mr. Safer Will visit
