ExaItement over New eoId camp.

The New KlOndike is the name Of
the new gold camp which has grown
out of the recent big find on the south
fork of the Bonito, about twenty miles
from Captain. The original strike has
been christened the Free Gold claim.
This claim, which was bought by A.
II. Byrd FOR $4,000 within five hours
after its discovery, has proven to be
all and more than was claimed for it.
and in it the purchaser e his for
tune. Besides this claim. Mr.. Byrd has
purchased several other adjoining
claims, paying from $1,000 to $1,000
each for them. although not so much
as a prospect hole has been sunk on
any Of the group.
The Free Gold is already producing
good ore, some of which has been
shown by assay to contain from $1,000
to $4,000 per ton in gold. Returns
from seventeen assays from ore Sc
cured at random while n shaft was be-
ing sunk ON the ledge, give values
ranging from several hundred dollars
to 10000 per ton, but there are pockets
in the lead which viii show probably
many times even the latter amount.
The owner of this claim has a force of
men Mt work sinking a shaft and clear
ing off ground for a mill site, as It is
his intention to mill the ore right on
the ground. 1t is Mr.. Byrd's intention
to have the mill in operation at the
earliest possible moment, and with
this end in view is developing his prop
erty as fast as possible. Before ac-
curing the property Mr.. Byrd was
working a valuable silver proposition
in that same district, but is now de-
voting his whole attention to the Free
Gold.
There are many capitalists in the
new camp who have made extensive
purchases, while several Arizona and
Colorado mining companies have sent
experts in to investigate the new gold
fields. The latter have as yet failed to
express any opinion in regard to the
recent strikes made in that section.
but it is confidently believed in mining
circles that they have sent glowing
reports back to their companies, as
they have been in constant commune
cation with their principals by tele-
graph. The scramble was at first
among prospectors, but this is being
rapidly changed, and it is now a fight
among the mining companies.
The excitement shows no signs of
subsiding, as the population of the
camp is increasing daily, while new
strikes are being made. While there
have been no finds that viii begin to
compare with the original strike,
many other lodges, which contain
enough free gold to be easily seen with
the naked eye, have been located with
in the last few days. Ninety claims
We're staked out In that vicinity yester-
day, among which are many lodges
similar in character to the now famous
Free Gold.

AIrshIp Burned.

New York, Feb. 5.-Fire at Denmead,
Hampshire, has destroyed Buchanan's
air ship, which was built to rival the
air ship of NJ. Santos umont, accord
ing to n dispatch from London to the
journal.
This loss will be a serious setback
for Thomas Buchanan, the English in
ventor, who recently completed the
burned air ship, after devoting twenty
years of thought and labor to its on
struction. In constructing his machine
Mr.. Buchanan endeavored as closely
as possible to follow the outlines of a
bird. The steering gear was an alu-
minum rudder, shaped like a fish fin.
Gasoline motors entered into the
scheme of propulsion, and the inventor
planned to carry passengers inside the
body Of the machine, instead Of IN an
attached car. The inventor had not
given a public demonstration Of the
working Of his machine.

INTERESTING ITEMS OF NEWS
FROM ALL OVER NEW MEXICO

Details Of the accidental killing If
Clarence r. Letter in Mahon county,
on the Santa Fe Pacific, reached Al
buquerque on the Bird. A number CT
cowboys had been camping at jacob
Nutter's ranch and were more or less
under the influence of liquor. George
Ashby, who, with Letter and Samuel
Fullerton, occupied a room at the
ranch, suggested that they unload their
weapons for fear Of some accident.
Ashby then commenced eiecting the
cartridges from a Winchester, when
one Of the loads was dicharged, the
bullet striking Letter in his hip, passed
through the body and lodged under the
right arm. The ranch associates start
ed with the wounded man for st.
George, a little town se~venty-hve miles
away for treatment, but the poor fell
low could not endure the pain and he
was taken back to the ranch and made
as comfortable as possible for thenight,
A start was again made the mex morn

Ext Governor Prince has expressed
his hearty approval of the plan for es-
tablishing a southwestern museum at
Santa Fe. The governors palace at
Santa Be, he said, was by far the most
interesting building In the United
States. historically, antedating James
town and Plymouth in its antiquity.
For three centuries the history of the
Southwest has centered there. 1t had
long been felt that its Ultimate use
should be for a great museum as the
home Of the archaeological and histori-
cal treasures of the Southwest. Said
Governor Prince: mo other part of
the country is so rich in these things,
as not only the cliff dwellings and an
cient pueblas would be tributary, but
also the rich stores of Spanish antiqui-
ties. The last Legislature of New
Mexico unanimously offered this place
to the Smithsonian Institution for a
southwestern museum, bat owing to
tie peculiar charter of the institution,
the trustees found themselves unable
to accept the gift. However, The build
ing will be made a museum in some
other way"

A BRITISH HORSE SCANDAL.
lneompeteney II not Fraud Charged In
the Buying Of American Horses.

inCompetency " not FRAUD charged IN
the Buying Of American Horses.
London. Feb. BIN the House Of
Commons last evening Major Arthur
Lee conservative, formerly British at
tache with the United States army
during the Spanish-American war and
later British military attache at Wash
ington), said Great Britain had been
offered the services of the chief horse
expert of the United States army as
adviser In the purchase of American
horses for the British army. The rev
elation was made during a heated de
bate on the remount question, when
Major Lee said:
1.-THE accredited representative Of the
war office, Colonel Wardenop, the at
tache at Vienna, was given no oppor-
tunity of showing what knowledge he
possessed of the resources Of the conn
try. In the same way, 1, being mill
tary attache at Washington, was not
Informed that there wa any intention
Of buying horses in the United States.

pers that British officers had been

my position implied 1 was competent
to give. At the time / had the Oppor-
tunity, through the good win of a high
official, of getting the services Of the
chief horse expert of the United States
army as adviser. 1 cabled the sugges-
ton to the war Office, but l received no
reply"
The whole debate on this question
In the House of Commons causes wide
spread Indignation, which is as evil
lent among the strongest supporters Of
the government as among the members
IF the opposition. The ministerial
press vigorously charges the war office
with absolute incompetency, If nothing
worse, and demands a searching in
JURY, limiting at the possibility that
The more important departments Of the
war Office make no more crealitable
showing than the remount department.
The st. James Gazette, referring to
The further Investigations proposed,
urges the need Of fixing the RESPONSE
oility Of individuals, saying:
"The nation has been swindled, and
t is right that the swindlers, whoever
they are, should be brought to book
promptly. Horses, or at least four
legged creatures, have been bought for
B165, when only worth a quarter of
that sum. The difference, three-quar-
ters, has gone into the pockets of GER
tain persons. If they can prove the
money got there properly, well and
good. If not, the conclusions are OBJ
viOus. There must be no whitewash-

scurvy scourges Alaskan Gold Camp
Wonderful Reports from
New District.

Seattle, Wash, Feb. 5.-The first
mails to arrive from Nome, st. Mich
aels, Council City, Rampant and other
points in northwestern Alaska, were
brought down from the north on the
steamship DirigO, arrived this morning.
Two months and two days were re
quired to make this trip from Nome
to Dawson.
Scurvy is prevailing in and about
Nome to an alarming degree. A great
lack Of all kinds of fresh vegetables
was apparent.
Many of the poor p%rospectors who
were unable to get out in the fall are
alternating in their cabins and it is
among this class that the most pro-
nOunced cases of scurvy are found.
The poor of Nome are proving q
heavy tax on the charity Of the camp.
Destitution was general. There have
been no advices from the outside since
navigation closed.
The winter was mild and an early
breakup was looked for.
Advices from Rampant give some
wonderful accounts of the new Koyu-
kuk district, OF which BEETLES City is
at present the commercial center. The
four creeks in the district have attract
ed great prominence from their rich
returns. They are Lane, Olsen, Cog
lund and Glen. OF the four, Glen is
the more noteworthy. one mine" there
picked out a nugget weighing $6O1 and
other men are taking out pans averag-
ing from 81 to $40.
Baker Flats, on which these creeks
are located, it is claimed, will prove as
rich as the KlondDke, and the pay
streak in Glen creek las been traced as
far as twenty-eight miles below Eu-
reka.

H DENVER CASE.
Interstate Commerce Commission In
curing into Rates.

HdNihS hhO ndNSSs
Washington, Feb. 5.-The Interstate
Commerce Commission yesterday be-
gan hearing testimony in what is
known as the Denver case, involving
the freight tariff on eastbound traffic
from Chicago to Denver over the lines
running between Missouri river points
and the Pacific coast via Denver.
William Sproole, traffic manager Of
the Southern Pacific, was the only wit
ness yesterday, and he explained in de
tail the relative rates on various items
as between the coast and Denver, and
Missouri points. He contended that
conditions were such that a higher tar
if against Denver than against Mis-
souri, river points was fully justified;
that the competition was greater on
goods for Missouri river points than to
Denver. This competition was partic.
ularly heavy FROM the East, which
places goods at Missouri river points
at such rates that the tariff from the
coast had to be lower for those points
than for Denver, which was far less
affected by such eastern competition.
The testimony win be continued to-
morrow.
