Superintendent Collins of the
Smuggler Union mine at Telluride
Colorado, was assassinated las t
November, the elimination of labor
trnubles in that district. A special
grand jury indicted 25 persons for
completely in the riots and other
crimes that kept the camp in a state
of tqrbulance and panic. A mum
Der of the indicted individuals were
apprehended, and gave bonds. On
account Of technical defects the in
dictments were set aside by the dis
trict court Thereupon the district
attorney prepared informations, and
had warrants of arrest for the &C
cused. But all of the persons in
dicted took advantage of their re-
lease and left for other parts. Only
one of the many mills of the Snug
gler Union Company has been run
since the trouble occurred, But
with the flight of the principal agi-
tators it is expected that other mills
will start up, and the camp resume
its old time prosperity.

misgovernment never was devised
than that which congress has inf1ict-
ed upon Alaska. l don't t mean that
it was Intentionally vicious, but at
tempting to govern an unknown
region more than 1000 miles distant
through set of officials appointed,
in most instances to get rid of them,
could naturally have but one result
1t is probable, however, that the
wrongs of Alaska will be lesseued
as they become better understood.
May 11th left Catella and crossed
to Kayak on steam launch, where
l had to wait until the 18th for a
steamer. On the 18th l overcame
my seasickness enough to enjoy the
sight of Mt. Elias holding its colossal
form of marble whiteness Is, 900 feet
above Malaspina glacier, which is the
largest on the continent, having a
surface of 1900 square miles, and ex-
tends from the St. Elias range to
the coast.
At Yakutat the ship tied up to a
wharf that had been built in the last
six weeks. Upon it lay large pile
of rails for road that was already
graded as far as we could see into
the hills The superintendent told
me they were building nine miles of
railroad to bring out lumber to sup
ply the demand that is being created
in this region.
May 21st l landed at Juneau, and
after a 10 days stay there and on
Douglas Island l sailed on the Flosie,
a local steamer that stopped at the
mining camps of Yankee Cove, Ber-
ner's Bay, Seward City and the town
of Halnes, where Uncle Sam is
spending $265, 900 in a permanent
army post, and arrived in Skagway
June I'd in time for lunch with the
whom l found well and
happy.
Skagway is recovering from the
that followed it's boom,
and several long headed residents
are buying property whenever it is
offered at bargain. 1t has about
1900 inhabitants, and does a good
local trade as we'll as a heavy whole
sale business with the interior. The
White Pass and Yukon r. r. is re-
ceiving more freight than ever be-
fore, much of which is heavy ma
chinery, mostly for Dawson and
Atlin, Freight to the American
Yukon generally goes by St.
Skagway is full of people who are
waiting to go ''inside" when the ice
breaks up in Lake Lebarge This
is the latest season ever known, but
the lake was breaking three days
ago. Tomorrow, June 18th, start
with party of argonauts for the
far north. May send you my diary
in sections. Good bye for this time.

LETTER FROM ALASKA.
SKAewAY, ALASKA. June 15.

SKAGwAY, ALASKA, June 15.
Dear Ledger
From present indications the oil
fields of Alaska equal any in the
world, both in quality and quantity.
Evidences of petroleum had long
been noticed along the coast from
Yakutat to Hanna, over 400 miles,
but the first actual development was
done last fall, four miles from Catella
A 10 inch well was driven through
drift, sandstone, and shale 365 feet,
when oil was struck which spouted
more than 30 feet in the air. AS it
was late in the season the we'll was
capped and work suspended. I
visited it May 9th. 1t is four miles
from the shore, and about eight feet
of snow remained on the ground. A
short distance below the we'll is a
lake of petroleum several rods in ex-
tent, fed by rill that oozes up out
side the casing, and has wasted many
thousands of barrels during the
winter. People help themselves to
all they please for kindliug fires and
samples to take away. Analysis
shows this oil to be gasoline, illumi-
mating and lubricating oils, except
less than 10 per cent coke and waste,
the base being paraffine. This sea-
son several more wells will be bored.
People and machinery are arriving
by every boat. The coast will be
chsrted this summer, and it is
thought good harbor will be found
at Martins Island, four miles west
of Catella. OF course it will take
some time for wharves, tanks, pipe
lines, etc., to be built. The whole
country has been staked. some of it
two or three times by the outrageous
power of attorney system which
seems to have been devised for the
benefit of the lawyers. One man
has staked over 10000 acres on
paper, not even going upon the land,
simply recording the claims and lay
ing the foundation for a contest
when the lands value shall have
been proved by actual prospectors.
1t will be a repetition of the Nome
rascalities which gave that region a
black eye and retarded it's develop
ment. A more absurd system of

SHAREHOLDERS ASSESSED.
phaIt Company to Levy
Twenty-four Million.

Newark, N. J.. Dec. 22-Judge
Kirkpatrick in the U. s. Circuit
Court today signed an order permit
ting Henry Tatnal, receiver of the
National Aasphalt Co. to issue a
call assessing the shareholders of
the Asphalt Company of America of
which he is also receiver, in the
sum of twenty-four million dollars
This sum represents the unpaid por-
tions of the company's capital stock.
The application for the order was
opposed by the lawyers represent
ing the stockholders. The suit was
instituted by the trustees for hold
ers of the company's outstanding
bonds. It was charged that only 20
per cent of the subscriptions for the
purchase of stock was paid in.
