Thurman says he has received a great
many letters from democrats since he
elected for German for 1904. and only one
writer is adverse to German. He is
West Virginian, who charges German with
infidelity to the party on the tariff question.
"Gorman is entitled to credit for what
he did to the Wilson bill" said Thurman
today. He found that 1t would not pro-
duce as much revenue as the nation need
ed, and he had it amended SO as to bring
the deficit down to $20.OO0,0OO. He came
that near saving the measure from prov
ing a failure, but scapegoat was needed
for the failure of the Cleveland admins
tration. and Senator German was selected
as the man. He ought to be praised rather
than blamed for that action

DAWSON CITY
 NEWS NOTES
An Electric Storm on July 2 Does Some Damage...NO
 Road Building.

Dawson, July 24.-While the electric storm was in progress early yesterday afternoon bolt of jagged flame l5 feet
 in length shot from the warehouse of the Ames Mercantile company, on Sec ond avenue, with sharp explosion. The incident caused small panic on the street. The transformers on the pole opposite the warehouse were burned out. This happened in several parts of the city. Those on the pole in front of Sheriff Eilbeck's house were burned out near the beginning of the storm.
 Road building is receiving no en- cOuragement this session at the hands of the government. Petitions intro duced into the Yukon council this ses- sion have been reported on adversely. All bills calling for an expenditure of money must be introduced or recom- mended by the government, the por- tion of the council directly amenable to and under the direction of the federal government at Ottawa.
 The bill providing for the licensing of auctioneers, hawkers and peddlers was passed in the Yukon council yes- terday. The bill is to have no, applica- tiOn within any municipality.
 Every hawker's or peddler's license taken out before August b in any year will cost $lOO; $50 when made after that date. An auctioneer's license will cost $lOO before August 15 and $56 after. Every license expires December 3l of the year issued. No. hawker nor peddler shall offer for sale any wares other than those set forth in his appli- cation for a license. The penalty for violation of the ordinance, on convic- tion, shall be not to exceed $lOO and costs.
 All persons leaving the territory are being personally searched by the police authorities for gold dust on which no export tax has been paid. The police have always had the power under the law, but did not put it into operation until this morning. Major Wood, as- sistant commissioner of police, an- nounced today that the law was in op. eration. He sent te)egrams this morn- ing to Major Snyder ut Whitehorse and the police detachment at Forty mile to put the law into active opera tion at once.
 Yesterday, while coming down the A. c. trail, Philip Daumerie, a sour dough, met with terrible accident, in which he lost the sight of his right eye. He slipped on the muddy thor oughfare and fell over the edge of the trail, his right eye landing squarely on . small stump. It was completely ruined, and presented ghastly ap- pearance.

Capt. Vests Statement.

An article published in the last issue of this paper from the correspondent at Wales, is objected to by Capt. West of the Corwin. The article stated that Capt. West refused to let native have boat to recover his own, which had gone adrift, the natives boat also con- taining some United States mail. Capt. West offered the native boat, and told him and a number of other natives who were on board the Corwin, to go and get it. The native said he was afraid. The wind was blowing hard at the time and Capt. West could not hoist anchor at that time and go in search of the drifting boat. He had on Q heavy deckload and could not take the risk, although the natives could easily have recovered the boat within few yards of the steamer had they attempted to do so. Capt. West took up collection on board, contributing 0 himself for the benefit of the native who lost his craft.

 News of one of the reported richest strikes ever made in the north became generally known on the streets of Daw- son today. The strike was made 300 miles or so westerly of Eagle. Thirty five thousand dollars are reported to have been taken out with a rocker by three men since the spring thaw began this year. John Mcdonald, who has been in the tailor business on First avenue, left on the last trip of the steamer Bailey for the scene of the strike. An old acquaintance of his was one of the three lucky men who made the strike. He came to Dawson four weeks ago for supplies, and informed Mcdonald, but required of Mcdonald that the matter be kept q secret q month. Mcdonald was not to start on the stampede in the meantime. Me Donald agreed, and when the time was up, last week, left here with two other men. They took several pack horses with them.
 An effort will be made, it is stated, to secure pardon for James Slorah, who is serving a life sentence for the murder of his wife. He is imprisoned in the British Columbia penitentiary.
