loose. A rush was made towards
the cars. Switches were turned and
the track blOckaded with ties to pre-
vent the train from pulling out.
The Capt. was placed on board with
difficulties and the deputies were
forced to make considerable gun
play. 1t was a most fortunate thing
no blood was shed on either side as
it was apparent a riot would have
ensued and much blood shed and
property destroyed. The whole

but it is to be sincerity hoped has
gone to safety. We think those who
were clamoring for his person yester-
day will also be thankful they mis-
sed him.
Last evening several more deputies
arrived and in addition thereto sew
eral detectives who will make it a
point to ascertain the parties VINO
held up the train by turning switches
and obstructing tracks. 1t is liable
to 60 hard with a few. The local
police and specials kept things well in
hand up town and all was quiet
which condition was accounted for
by the fact that all saloons we're
closed and are so still.
Orders from headquarters have
closed both mines indefinitely which
may mean week, day or month or
several months. Wednesday was
payday at the mines and so far the
merchants report no payments Of
bills. The miners are hanging on
to their cash aud the merchants will

IMPROVEMENTS.
The New Shaft House and Plants
at the Pioneer.

The cut on this page shows the
skeleton iron work Of the new steel
shaft house being constructed by the
American Bridge company Of Min
neapolis at "B" shaft of the Pioneer,
The structure will be the largest in
the United States. The entire shaft
house will be enclosed with steel
sheathing and it is expected to be
finished about the middle of May.
165 feet is the height of the struc-
tuIe and the base is 30x114 set upon
concrete piers built twelve feet in the
ground. The skips rise to a height of
103 feet before dumping and 6 pockets
with II spouts on the side is the
equipment.
Tie enormity of the building can
be somewhat conjectured when it is
known that it contains 301 tons of
steel and more than $4,000 rivets are
used in is construction. There are
SO, 900 marks on the plan. The con-
struction crew consists of twelve men
under the supervision of Supt Henry
Hoke with Nick Huston as foreman.
In addition to the shaft house a
novelty in the shape Of bridge idlers
will be built from the shaft to the
engine house. This structure will also
be entirely of steel and will require so
tons further. The entire structure
will be enclosed and built to give the
shieve oilers safety in their work and
also cover the entire system of ropes

perate mood towards the Supt. and
outside opinion seems TO be that
should Mr.. Trezona return his life
would be in danger.
Word received today from Manager
Trezona and escort Deputy Bates
from Duluth indicate both in good
condition. The party stopped at
Tower last night and took the train
this morning at that place. The
walk was made yesterday afternoon
from Winton overland to Robinson
lake where hand car was taken to
Tower.
The opinion is freely expressed
that captains and foremen are not so
much to blame as is the company.
The continual lacking up' on the
cost of production spurs them on to
measures that would not otherwise be
taken. Cost sheets are compared at
headquarters and One-eighth of cent
ton is occasion enough for repli-
mand. The next month the men are
spurred on to make it up and this
probably accountsfor some Of the i'll
feelings. In conversation with some
Ct the more intelligent ones Of the
strikers Yesterday, we were informed
that if the company would cut down
a little on the dividends of the prefer
red stock and pay a little more to the
men, much better results would be
obtained. Be this as it may, the af-
fair is deeply regretted by the
majority of people.

robbed of I'VE 5000 by a boy whom he
had befriend ed. 1t seems that there
were no vacant rooms at the Nevada

share his room. Before retiring Mr..
Austin placed his trousers under is
head and was soon fast asleep. Some
time during the night the boy ar ose,
drew the trousers from under the pillow
and lift the room-all without awaken

account for the disappeara7ce OF his

found Oh the floor in tie room opposite,
and the money was gone. The wires
were kept bot for half an hour sending

A JUST RECOGNITION

In the appointment of c, l.. Andrews to represent Alaska at the meeting or the local customs appraisers at New York next December the treasury de- partment has shown deserved recog- hilton tothe customs service of Alaska and it has honOred one of the most faith ful and best qualified members of those in that service.
 The administration of Capt. D. H. Jarvis has been about as nearly perfect as it is possible for it to be made under the difficult conditions he has had to nee, and with the means at his com mand. The collector has selected for himself a capable, honest and industrious corps of assistants, all of whom have demeaned themselves in their official stations with an eye single totnte,iigent enforcement Of the law and the ehcl- ency of the public service. No one has developed sufficient 'pull' to Induce him or any of his assistants, so far as lt is known, to deyiate an iOJa from the plain mandates of the law or to eNer- else their discretion otherwise than their judgment indicated was for the public good: and anyone, no matter hlS station in life, has the "pull' required to get for hiu fair and courteous treat menJ and the recognition of all the rights to which he is entitled under the law.
 Itis to the credit Of Capt. Jarvis that, after having brought his admtnistra- ton to such a high plain of efficiency he now asks for the men who have as- sisted him in his work the recognition that is due to competency and Co those who faithfully and inteliEeut,y per form their duties. The friends of Mir. Andrews and .hose who are aqlainted with his peculiar fitness for his official duties will be particularly pleased that he has been picked for this mark oi favor by his superiOrs.
