FEARS FOR M1NNEToNKA.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 23.-Twenty-
seven days have elapsed since the
steamer Minnetonka left Coronel, the
coaling port of Chile, for this city, on
her way from New York. Unless she
soon puts in an appearance the belief
will prevail that she was overcome in
the great hurricane that swept the
Chilean coast on the night of June list,
and caused the loss of the large steam
er Arequipa and the British snip Foyle-
dale Coronel is about go miles south
of Valparaiso, where the full force of
the hurricane was felt, and it is prob
able that the Minnetonka was not far
from that port when the storm Oc-
Cured. She has, at any rate, had more
than time enough to reach San Diego,
where stop was to be made, and no
report of her arrival there has been
received. Twenty seven days from
Coronel to San Diego would be a record
for slow trips. The Minnetonka is a
vessel of over $500 tons net register
and is laden with full cargo of heavy
freight from New York, consigned to
Williams, Dimond & Co. She left New
York on April LIST and Norfolk five days
later, reaching Coronel on May 23rd
and sailing thence three days later.

eve endorse the administration of the Hon. All fred S. Moore, judge of this judicial division. His conduct throughout the past years trials surrounded by CORRUPT OFFICIALS, has been dignhed and up right. We'll may the miners of Northwestern Alaska congratulate themselves upon having at last estab- iished for them Court of Justice presided over by Judge of unquestionable integrity ability and fear lessness.'
 The above is the concluding paragraph in re- port of the grand jury submitted and signed by J. T.. Hill, the foreman of the jury, appointed by Judge Moore. How we'll he discharged his duty! The tattery, for such it must be esteemed, is simply nauseating Besides it it untrue flattery always is. The blast of "hot air" given the miners of Northwestern Alaska,' will undoubtedly be appreci aed by them, but unfortunately i. will not thaw any ice relieve the we'll known conditions which have existed, and which continue to exist. Nothing but time and change will ameliorate the burdens which continue to be borne by them.
 Judge Moorcs foreman comments his creators conduct while "surroundcd by corrupt officials" And yet if that nfallbo parsonage is so surrounded" will somebody tell why Foreman Hill did not in- dict them? And who they? Let us The4s is the clerk of the court who is known to have been disoyal to at least judge; there is the judges who once upon time was the eten- ographer of former judge of this division; there is the Jury commissioner and then there are the United States marshal and the district attorney, as we'll az the judges district attorney" Yet of these officials indicted by the grand jury. The statement in reference to Corrupt ocals is vague and undefned that diagram should have accom- panied it, showing the separation of the sheep from the goats We are free to say that in our opinion Foreman Hills statements crminally libeous in the extreme, but to who has been beled we con- fcss inability to determine at this time, because of the lack of the diagram noted above
 There is something utterly contemptible in the reference to corrupt officials" whether they be found in the clerks office, the marshal's office or elsewhere If the foreman of grand jury feels bound in the dis charge of his "duty" to besmirch officials. why did not his oath and the knowledge (which such a statement leads to in his possession) impel him to their indictment? On the face of it is written absolute condemnation of the mind or minds which inspired it. Unable to ndict because there not iota of evidence upon which to hang indictment. of Corrupt of1icals,' be they whom they may, there still left the opportunity to be- smirch and defame under the aegis of the law and the "alleged privilege of juries."

hsps, because it contained vrile protest of one-h the grand jury against the acts of the foreman and few supporters.
 The accepted report is not all opera bouffe; it con- tains number of cut and dried recommendations, such as every grand jury report submitted to court in this judicial division have made. Many of the recommendations are to the point. The need of q new jail and court house are pointed out; fire escapes are recommended for all two-story buildings; the mail service of the past winter is commended; and the alAmerican route from Katma or Iliamna bay is endorsed. The public schools of Nome are given a need of praise and the suggestion is made that "Nome should continue to have public school system equal to that in cities of the size where ever feund." The sisters of Holy Cross hospital are commended for their unpaid work in caring for the sick, especially the natives, and the statement is made, with good truth, that the government should care for sick and indigent natives. The filthy diton of the streets of Nome, the police department, the city jail, the city cemetery and the tenderlon district condcmned the district clerk is commend ed in few lines, and the marshal and Acting Dis trict Attorney Grigsby and District Attorney Melvin Grgsby roundly condemned for nearly every crime in the decalogue Reference to these officials is made elsewhere in these columns.

HILLS GRAND JURY REPORT.

The law governing grand juries :n United States courts, requires that the jury shall consist of not more than 2.3, and not less than 16 members, and that no indictment, presentment or report, as a final conclusion of that hody, can be made which has not been concurrcd in by at least l2 members.
 When Foreman Hill presented a document 10 the court and stated that it was the final report of the grand jury, it is the veriest non- sense and maliciously untrue to urge that juror might not arise in his place and inform the court that the report as handed in was not the report of the jury-that it was not concurred in by l2 or more members of the panel, on the ground that the juror protesting would be guilty of violating his oath 10 guard the secrets of tho jury room.
 There is no rule of law better es, tahlished, respecting grand juries and their duties and obligations, than that juror has not only the right, but that it is his duty, to pro- test against an illegal act of that body, and no act can be sufficient and legal coming from the jury room which is not surrounded by all the statutory requirements, and especially approved by l2 members. What claquer would contend that II men on petit jury of l2 could return a valid verdict of guilty, in criminal or any other case?
 More than 50 years ago, Green leaf, an accepted authority on such matters, following centuries of com mon law, laid down the rule for the guidance of courts and juries of this country, that grand juries may also te asked whether 12 of their number actually concurred in the finding of a bill, the certificate of the foreman not being conclusive evidence of the fact" Another eminent authority states that grand jurors may be compelled to testify as to proceedings in the jury room when it becomes necessary for the purposes of public justice, or for the protection of private rights"
 Any other rule would be mon-
The Nome nugget., 1903-06-13

strous and un-American, for it would place in the hands of such a man as Foreman Hill the means |. and opportunity of wreaking his ., malignant vengeance against every decent and upright man in the community. With willing and pliable court the nastiest and most scurrilous innuendos and insinua- tions would come from the jury room, fathered by such foreman alone, and spread upon the public record. of the State; no juror would be allowed to protest, on penalty of mourning the wrathful indignation of the upright judge and of prose. cution for perjury.
 The law knows no such thing as a minority report from grand jury, and none may be received cttilcI HUH LtC loICihAh VI o iHCIll- Der of that body, to be spread upon the court records, and in case of Q disagreement. as in the present case, the fact being made known to the court, the jury should be- sent back with instructions to agree up- on q verdict or report, and if such agreement is not possible, then dis charge them without their verdict or report, as in similar cases with trial juries.
 Had temperance, fairness and justice a stronger hold on the souls of men we think tho Hill report would have been used to light the furnace. fires in this northern temple of justice, and legal report, or none at all, would have been filed instead

WHY WERE THEY NOT INDICTED?

''.rho conduct of the Acting United States Attor- ney Geo. B. Grigsby and the United States Marshal and his entire force of deputies in the ease of the United States vs. J. J. Jolley from the time of the killing of Police Officer Samuel James on Jan 9, this year. has been reprehens and deserves the severes condemnation. These oficias'of the United States government not only neglected! to perform their sworn duty but aided and abetted crime '--Fore- man Hills grand jury report.
 Aided and abetted crime" did they? Why then were they not indicted? Aiding and abetting crime" is felony, is it not? And yet grand jury sworn to do its duty, failed to indict men, who ac- cordng Foreman Hills report, guilty of that very act If these officials thus guilty, wouId like to know why Foreman Hill appointed by Judge Moore, did not do his duty? We respectfully call Judge Moolc's attention to the statement of his fore man. Some one has blundered, if Foreman Hills statements are true Or this statement made by the foreman in order to salve the hurt of the disrc attorney" because twelve of the best citizens of Nome after deliberang forty minutes, said that J. Joey had not committed crime? We like to see grain of consistency and then in the report of half grand jury. Furthermore, in the interests of right and justice, if federal officials any other kind of officials laid and abet crime want to them punished. There are just as good citizens in Nome as Foreman Hill or Judge Moore or the "dis trict attorney" and they are just anxious to tho laws obsysd as are those gentlemen. Yet Fore man Hill makes these charges in report accepted by the'csurt the only real thing, and the grand jury fails to indict men whom Foreman Hill says "aided and abetted crime" Ye gods, has it come to this?
 We are inclined to think that sober, dscrminat ing men who are not blinded by factional prejudice and inherent purblndness will see in the statements thus made the spirit of absolute maliciousnsss and vindictveness The charges recklessness and Responsibility unparalleled. Foreman Hill may stand for them for he has little to lose, but what of Judge Moore? His foreman of the grand jury tells him that the United States Marshal and Acting Dis tEict Attorney Grgsby have "aided and abetted crime," yet the foreman seems to have been unable to secure any proof to substantate his statement. Therefore it must be regarded unworthy of cred belief made by men for the cole pur- pose of besmirching men to whom the "prvilege" of being grand jurors gave such opportunity Such pro- cedure is not creditable to Americans; it is rehec ton upon the creative power; it IS abuse of power real or alleged. For, MT. Foreman Hill and Judge Moore, too and "District Attorney" McGinn, if the officials referred to guilty of "aiding and abet- ting crimc," WHY WERE THEY NOT INDICTED? It seems to that common honesty and fairness de- rnand an answer.
The Nome nugget., 1903-06-13
WHY IS THIS?

"We have been unable to invest igate the records of the office of the United States district attorney for the reason that the present incum- bent has not in his possession the books and records of that office."- From Foreman Hills grand jury report.
 How is this? The court about May 6 issued an order directing that the books should be turned over to the present incumbent. Why does he not enforce his order? Courts 10 be of value to any con- munity must be respected.

more when he indulges in heart to heart talks" in "Scattlc and the outside" Judge Moore has never made any attempt, so far as we know, to become acquainted with the people of the district over which he was appointed to preside in a judicial capacity, and, therefore, is not in a position to speak of them, for them or against them. What "knowledge" he has been permitted to gain seems 10 have been first carefully "censored."
