|D[[p PAT STREAK
 TO BE UNCOVERED AT SLATE CREEK. O|d Channel on beR(h
Work Already Done There Shows Very Promising Re-
 suits.

lt i> the intention of Chas. Krae- mer to uncover bedrock in the old channel which crosses the bench just east of Slate creek. and between the creek and the divide leading to Chisna. It is reported by one of the men who came out recently. from Slate creek. that Kraemer will sink on this bench until bed rock is reached, regardless of what the depth may be.
 Some work Was done on thi. same bench last summer bv Spon- berg, Roberts, Beck and others. who succeeded in getting shaft down sixty-four feet. At this point they ran out of material for timbering, and an accident happening to MT. Sponberg, the work was abandoned for the season. When the work Was stopped. they had reached sharply inclined rim rock, which sloped away into an old channel. much below the bedrock of the present channel of Slate creek.
 Tests made of the gravel on this rim rock gave from 10 to 20 cents to the pan, and all who are con- versant with the lay of the ground are confident that very rich streak will be found when the bed rock below this sloping rim, is struck.
 The depth of the wash and the necessity of timbering, make it rather expensive prospecting, hut the chances are that it would be a very profitable investment. The finding of deep lead would change the methods of working that coun- try considerably. Where at pres ent, mining can only be carried on during the summer, if deep pay streak was located. work would be possible all winter.
 It is Mir. kraemer's intention to hire force of men and keep them at work on the shaft, timbering as they go down, until bed rock is reached, and then drift along the bottom until the pay streak is located. There is no trouble with water on this bench, as the clay in the gravel prevents the surface water from seeping into the shaft.

Bill is Withdrawn PECULIAR ACTION IS TAKEN
 IN REGARD TO
Of Alaska
Some Party or Person is Working Against us in This
 Matter.

It is reported on good authority that the bill for the redistricting of Alaska has been withdrawn.
 The bill was drawn up at the request of Attorney General, and presented in the senate by Senator Hoar. It was also presented to congress and reported favorably by the committees.
 Just as everything was going along nicely. aud the measure about to pass, i; ie withdrawn by request of the Attorney General.
 Norman E. Smith, of Illiamna. while in Washington this season expressed himself as very much op- posed to the measure, hut we hear that he had nothing to do with the withdrawal.
 In letter just received from Senator Perkins, dated April 2S. he says: Il am in receipt of yours of the 18th inst. relative to change in boundaries of the judicial districts and am very glad to hear from you on the subject. and to get your views as to the situation and needs of your section. l shall give the bill my most careful consideration, and present your views to the com mittee."
 The action of the Attorney Gen eral as stated heretofore must have taken place since the communica- tion from the Senator was written.

No Ground for the Report,

The report circulated in town last week that the steamer Chico had been chartered for her June trip by railroad company to bring up railroad supplies to Valdez is without foundation, although We only wish that the report was true, The report was heard shortly after the arrival of the Chico and a re- porter of the PROsPEaTORinterviewed Captain Johnson and Purser Ho- mer in regard to the matter and they both denied that they had made such statement or that such was a fact as far as they know and only wished for their own benefit and good of the town and the coun- try that such was the case.
 While we would like to see a railroad as much as anyone, yet we do not wish to create false i'm pressions in the minds of our read CTS by publishing reports which have no foundation. If the Chico had been chartered it is more than likey that the captain and purser would have known of it.

Found a Whale.

William Bycrs, Jack Kerney and Jack Davidson, of Ellamar, recent ly left there for a trip to Glacie, island. They went in row boat and when within half mile of the island, came upon dead whale They towel it ashore, and upon investigation it was found to be a right whale
 The animal produced 25OC pounds of whalebone, which they can readily sell for at least five dollars pound, This will net each one in the neighborhood of $4000. It is just like getting mon- ey from home. The slabs of bone will average eight feet and a half in length.

Cut in Rates.

The entry of the Pacific Clipper Line steamer Santa Ana has pre- cipitated a rate war to Lynn Canal points and may extend to Valdez. The Clipper line sought to join the Alaska Steamship Association, but the request was refused. A request was also made to the White Pass Railroad to sell through tickets to the Klondike and this was also re- fused. The Clipper line then de- cided to go it all alone and cut the fare to Lynn canal points $7 and $5. The other companies then commenced to cut prices also, and now a first class ticket is sold to Juneau for $7.50 and second class for $5. The company will have the A. c. Co. and the P. P. x N. Co. to compete with to this point and the Westward and we may look for a cut in rates here.

STILL ANOTHER RAILROAD IN vIEwBY EAST
 ERIN MEN .[lput5 arc Nov Hee To Investigate Copper at Head of Panama. Railroad
 Projected.

Another company is in the field with the intention of building a railroad through to the head waters of the White and Panama rivers and on to Eagle city, if the reports of the experts are favorable.
 A company of eleven New York capitalists representing millions of dollars, one of whom is one of the most prominent insurance men in the country, have organized a com pany and have an option on some valuable copper properties on the hcadwaters oi the White and Ia mana rivers. They have great con fidence in this property and have sent their experts here to examine and report upon it, and also on the feasibility of building a railroad to the property from Valdez. If the report of these men is satisfactory. this company will build road to the property, if no other road is started before they get their re- port.
 Mcssrs. J. J. Franey. Vim. Ali son. the experts and E. H. Man helm, the engineer of the company with A. G. Lane, L. H. Cushman, F. R. and c. T. Townsend, their packers and assistants arrived here yesterday on the steamer, with a large outfit consisting of nine pack animals and provisions for the trip to the property.
 The packers will commence inn mediately to move camp to the summit. Messrs. Franey, Allison and Mannheim have gone to La touch to look at some thirty copper claims that they have options on, and expect to purchase if as repre- sented. They will return in few days and then start for the interior.
 Messrs. Franey and Allison have prospected in Alaska for several years and have the greatest faith in Valdez and the copper country. They say there is no doubt but that Valdez is the coming town of Alaska, and that this place and the copper country on the interior is all the talk of mining and moneyed men in New York.
 These men have one of the best outfits that has been brought into the country this season. They are receiving large salaries, paving their men well and have plenty of money behind them.

TO PROBE QUALITY OF
GEORGETOWN co. GAS
Commissioners Submit Mat
ter to Corporation Counsel.
Report of Inspector Shows That In
ferior Article Has Been Furnished
Daily Since July II.

The first steps looking to the prose-
Company for alleged persistent violation
of the law governing the standard OF
purity for Illuminating gas in the Dis
trict of Columbia was taken yesterday,
when Commissioner Macfarland sub
mitted to the Corporation Counsel a re-
port from the United States Inspector of
Gas and Meters.
The inspector states in his report that
despite repeated warnings. the company
continues to furnished gas surcharged
with sulphureted hydrogen.
During the past week his reports
show that sulphureted hydrogen ap-
peared in the gas furnished by this COM
paay every day from Friday, July Il.
The inspector notified the Georgetown
Gas Light Company daily, as, required
by law, of the violation of the standard
of gas purity, but without effect.
Mr.. Macfarland called the attention
OF the Corporation Counsel to these re-
ports in connection with the provisions
question reads:
When the Illuminating gas supplied
by any company, person. or persons, in
the District of Columbia shall at any
time be OF less Illuminating power or
of less purity than according to the
standard just heretofore given, it shall
be SO reported by the Inspector of Gas
and Meters TO the company, person, or
persons supplying the same, who shall
be subject to a penalty of 500. to be
recovered before the proper tribunal and
paid into the treasury of the District Of
Columbia aforesaid for each and every
day during which such violation shall
continue: Provided, however, That If it
shall appear that such deviation from
the above named standard could not
have been prevented by ordinary care
and prudence, but was occasioned by
some unavoidable causes, then the said
penalty shall not be enforced"

ASKED FOR CIGARETTE
HE KILLED Two MEN
Enraged Negro Laborer's
Horrible Work With AK.
Arrested and Placed in Jail, But 1t Is
Feared That the Fiend VIII
Be Lynched.

VARIOLA LANDING, Iowa. July 19.-
A negro laborer named Roger Brown,
employed at railroad camp near here,
murdered two other members CT the
camp. one the white foreman.
A negro named Ellis had asked
Brown for a cigarette and a quarrel
ensued. The white foreman, whose
name could not be learned. stepped in
and tried to stop the quarrel. He
could not do so before Brown had
crushed Ellis head in with an ak. kill
ing him. Brown then turned on the
foreman and slashed his head off with
the same weapon.
Another negro tried to save the white
foremans life. and had one hand cut
eff in the melee. A lynching party was
quickly organized, and Brown would
have been lynched Immediately had he
not been hurried to the Natchez Jail.
Trouble is very likely to follow. and
a lynching is expected.
