DAYS the vessel drifted around the is
land of st. Lawrence, and on Nav IA
was raised clear out of the water by
a sudden jam. The iron sheathing put
on at Seattle before starting was all
that saved the vessel from being
smashed to pieces. The rudder head
was twisted and the ship was badly
shaken up. While in this position a
white dog came to the ship from a
native settlement on the island. The
ship, in drifting about, narrowly es-

Fortunately, a lead opened on the
morning of June and Captain Daniels
gave the signal to go ahead at full
speed, the ship bucking a way through

the delight of the people of Nome, who
had been locked up for eight long
months. The reception given the in

tic one, and business was practically
suspended when the ship arrived.
Every available boat was pressed into
service, until the surface of Boring

For Cuba's Relief.

New York June 23.-President Palma
and his cabinet have decided on plan
which thev hone will relieve the econom-
zeal situation in the country, says a Ha-
vana dispatch to the Tribune. A mes
sage will be sent to congress, probably
next week. for that body to pass upon.
which sets forth the recommendatio OF
President Palma and the secretary of agri-
culture for the amelioration of the condi-
ton of affairs. This measure calls for the
expenditure of $3.50O.000, to be distrib-
uted among the sugar growers and cattle
raisers. Three millions is to be advanced
to sugar planters ut the rate of 90 cents
an arroba or 25 pounds, to be returned
in two installments, in February and
March. To cattle breeders will be paid a
premium of 81 for each COW imported for
breeding purposes up to 10000. Further
than this, all such cattle will be admitted
free of duty. There is also to be an in
creased tariff on many articles imported
now under small duties to raise the money
to be distributed. An international loan,
secured by bonds, will be necessary

TRADE REPORT.

r. G. Dun & Co.'s Weekly Review
of Trade last week says:
Trade at the East is more quiet, ow-
Ing to the advancing season, and the
had effect of prolonged labor contro-
Versies is being felt in certain lines.
REPORTS from the interior and the far
West are more encouraging. bountiful
harvests being expected, while the
light stocks carried over from the pre-
vious season assure profitable process.
The best indication of continued
prosperity is the fact that quotations
do not recede, even in the lines where
at present there is only a moderate
degree of activity. Railway earnings
thus far reported for June increased
3.9 over 1900.
Quiet conditions prevail in footwear
markets. A strong silver market has
revived purchases for export to China.
Supplemental buying of woolens is
also limited. Shoe shops in New Eng
land have more orders, yet most fac
tories operate only part of the time,
and some are entirely idle.
Leather is dull and foreign dry
hides weaker.
Lack of rain in the southwest is the
only seriously unfavorable crop indi-
cation of the week, while exceptional
encouraging reports are received from
most points. Domestic grain makes
good progress, but bad news has been
received from abroad and the outlook
is favorable for large exports.
Failures for the week number 1874
in the United States, against 1913 last
year, and 10 in Canada, against IA a
year ago.

NEIL, Shipman's family physician, went
ahead of the marshal to attempt to have
Shlpman surrender peaceably. Shipman
agreed to this, but when Swearingen and
Deputy Sheriff Fred Kendall appeared at
the door he warned them not to come in
under penalty of death. Swearingen, UNI
daunted, started to pull his revolver. and
Shipman fired load of shot. striking the
marshal in the lower part of the face and
killing him instantly. DR.. Grimmell and
the deputy beat a retreat, leaving the
body of the marshal upon the porch.
Sheriff Anderson went to the scene of
the shooting, deputizing a dozen citizens
to assist him. Hundreds of persons gath
cred near Shipman's home, and for three
hours watched the battle. Five hundred
shots were poured into the large two story
house, Shipman replying from windows
getaways and doors. The fire company
was called out and James May volunteered
to stick a hose in the cellar and drown
Shipman out A little later Shipman APP
peared at window and so shots were fired
at him. 1t then became quiet inside and
Shipmans body was found on the floor
full of bullets.

kane July 3, 4 and 5. those who are in
charge of arrangements have done much
during the past few days to complete all
details. Nearly everything is ready ex-

of the program into official form. Every
feature of the three days has been decided
upon. The special feature of the three
day celebration is that Spokane will enter

cent to see any of the downtown events
of the three days. The money to carry
on the celebration was raised by the bus
mess men, SO that no charge would have
to be made

little trouble. 1t has been arranged so
that the street amusements will be given

WEIRD TALE OF BURIED GOLD.

Several men from Alto Pass are over

treasure Around the spot where the
men are working are twelve large
beech trees, and on each one there Is
carved thee figure of hand pointing
toward the center of the circle formed
by the trees A short distance away
inscriptions In seven different Ian
guages are cut on the face of large
rock, which tell of the buried treasure
and pronounce curse on the man who
attempts to take it away, saying that
any person who finds the treasure,
which is said to be four pots OF gold.
will fall dead before he can get his
hands on 1t.
s. L. Casey an old citizen here, says
that he once visited the place, with
companion, and heard distinctly the
tones of a voice, coming, apparently,
from space, warning them not to try
to find the gold Others say they have
heard unearthly means and groans
there. Close by there is n large cave,
which, according to the story told by
men whit have explored it, has rooms
as large as large house, and some
phenomenon of nature back in its dark
est recesscu furnishes limitations Of
thunder and lightning that to the ner-
vous explorer seem decidedly real.
The origin of the story dates back
great many years, to the time when the
Indians inhabited this part of the coun-
try. The tribe whose headquarters
were near the spot above mentioned
found more gold in that neighborhood,
according to the story, than they could
carry away, and they buried the four
pots with their dead chief, and went
away, leaving their old hunting ground
to the encroaching whites. Mr.. Casey
says that when he was a young man
lie worked in the timber in that vicin-
ity, and found many tomahawks stick
ing IN trees, also other Indian relies,
and states that he and companion
named Salyers dug for the treasure,
which is said to be seven feet under
ground, years ago, and that, after dig
ging down six feet Salyers suddenly
came out of the hole shaking with ter
ror and vowed never to venture in
again. He claimed that some unseen
force had given him terrible shaking.
