The Portland papers find much good in the administration of Sheriff Tom Word, of Multnomah.. h..county, formerly resident of Skagway. The Oregoniau recently devoted a leading editorial to Word iu which it refers to him as the ''redoubtable sherid'', who, having put hand to the blow in not likely to turn back" The editorial is called out by the alleged discovery that the democratic party leaders who managed Mir. Words campaign were only bluH ing when they started him to cleaning up the city, and that he is now recetv' ing opposition from those who inspired him to act. The Oregonian adds, 'How Mr. Word relishes that sort of thing is shown by his present indepen- dent and strenuous course

NEW NEWS SERVICE

The Daily Alaskan has joined with the newspapers of Juneau to secure a news service over the American cable This step was taken notwithstanding that it will cost about 90 per cent. more than the telegraphic service that has been received over the Canadian line It will mean a better service to the newspaper readers of Skagway, who will receive all the important Ameri- can political news as well as the foreign news. A special effort will be made to secure .he important Canadian news also.
 This step will increase the cost of making the Daily Alaskan, but the ad- ditional burden is assumed with the same confidence with which other en- terprises have been undertaken in the past. Tho people of Skagway have never yet failed to respond to the efforts of the publishers of the Daily Alaskan to give them frst-class newspaper, and it is convinced that the additional expense that is being incurred to get the paper out at the present time will meet with additional patronage.
 The efforts of the Daily Alaskan and the other papers which are associated with it will be directed constantly tc- ward securing reduction in the exor, bitant press rates that arS charged by the United States cable. It these efforts shall succeed the people will get the benefit of the reduction in an ir' creased service.

RELAY CABLE
Sitka-Juneau Line to Be
 Taken Up

A large section of the government cable between Juneau and Sitka will be taken up and relaid A portion of this line is of light weight cable and 1t has been feared that it would not stard current that would be sufficiently strong to permit the operation of the line direct from Juneau or Skagway to Seattle without repetition, and for that reason it is proposed that as soon as the Burnside shall have completed the work of laying the cable from Sitka to Valdez, it will take up and replace the light section of the Juneau-SitKa line.

APPEARS FOR ARRANGEMENT
ON A CHARGE OF MURDER
Judge Lawlor, After Perusing the
Testimony, Increases Giovanni
FoSsa's Bonds to $4,000.

Giovanni Fossa appeared before
Judge Lawlor yesterday for arraign-
ment on a charge of murder. but at
the request of his attorney the case
was continued till April 2. Fossa had
been released on $4,000 bonds. as it
had been represented to the Judge
that the defendant could not be con-
victed of even assault to murder, as
no weapon had been used.
After the continuance had been
granted yesterday the Judge said he
had carefully perused the evidence
taken at the preliminary hearing and
was satisfied that the defendant could
be convicted of murder, as he had
thrown Vincenzo Lavagnino down Il
long flight of stairs and Lavag dino
had died from the injuries received.
Under the circumstances he would in
crease the bonds to $4,000.
Fossa and Lavignino were rival
scavengers and on June 1 last Fossa
invited Lavagnino to call at his house
at Bay and Franklin streets the next
evening to talk matters over. Lavag-
nino called and, 1t is alleged, Fossa
threw him downstairs and beat and
kicked him. Lavagnino was found in
an unconscious condition next morn
ing in vacant lot at Van Ness ave-
nue. and Union street by two police
men. He died the following Deem

TORTURING

From PimpleS to ScrOfuIa, from
Infancy to Age
Speedy CETst BY cEieHrs when
All Else Fails.

The agonizing itching and burning
o. the skin, as in eczema; the fright
ful scaling, as in psoriasis; the loss OF
hair and crusting of the scalp, as In
SCALED head; the facial disngurements,
as in acne and ringworm; the awful
suffering Of infants and anxiety of
WORKOUT parents, as in milk crust, tet-
ter and salt-rheum all demand a rem
edy of almost superhuman virtues to
successfully cope with them. That
Cuticura Soap, Ointment and Resolv-
ept are such stands proven beyond all
doubt. No statement is made regard
ing them that is not justified by the
strongest evidence. The purity and
sweetness, the power to afford immedi-
ate relief, the certainty OF speedy and
permanent cure, the absolute safety
and great economy, have made them
the standard skin cures, blood purifiers
and humour remedies Of the civilized
world.
Battle the affected parts with hot
water and Cuticura Soap, to cleanse
the surface OF crusts and scales and
soften the thickened cuticie. Dry,
without hard rubbing, and apply Cuti-
cura Ointment freely, to allay itching,
irritation and Inflammation, and soothe
and heal, and, lastly, take Cuticura Re-
solvent, to cool and cleanse the blood.
This complete local and constitu tional
treatment affords instant relief, per-
.mits rest and sleep IN the severest
forms Of eczema and other itching,
burning and scaly humours of the skin,
scalp and blood, and points to a speedy,
permanent and economical cure when
all else fails.

MEDICAL BLUNDER MADE
AT EMERGENCY HOSPITAL
Coroner Leland Will Investigate Mat
ter of Hugh Spillane's Death and
False Report of Cause.

Coroner Leland will hold an inves-
tigation at 10 o'clock this morning to
fix the responsibility for a medical
blunder committed in the case of
Hugh Spillane, who died on March II
in the Central Emergency Hospital of
a fractured skull, but the cause of
whose death was enormously reported
to the Coroner by the hospital author
tiles as pneumonia. The surgeon who
attended the case either failed to dis
cover the injury or made a false re-
port. Morgue Surgeon Bacigalupi
found that death resulted not from
pneumonia, but from a fracture of the
skull.
Within the last four years many
cases of fractured skull have been
wrongly diagnosed and the Coroner
proposes to get at the bottom of the
matter and ascertain whether the
blunder in the present case was due
to incompetency or negligence, or
both. He has subpenaed Drs. Paw
licki and Boskowitz to appear and
testify at the inquest to-day.
Spillane received fatal injuries by
falling in the street, after having
alighted from a street car at the in
tersection of Fourth and Howard
streets a few hours previous to being
taken to the hospital.

S56 Greenwich street, reported to the
police last night that he had been held
up. brutally beaten and robbed of a
gold watch valued at SIS and $2S in cur
rency by two footpads. Babitts face
plainly showed the effects of his en-
counter with the robbers. The right
side was swollen so that articulation
was painful. Babitts said he had been
unable to eat anything all day. not
being able to open his mouth.
The unfortunate man is a mate on
the schooner King Cyrus, which arrived
Sunday from Tacoma. When in this
city he resides In the rooming- house of
Mrs. G. SharplitZ, at 856 Greenwich
street. About o'clock yesterday morn
ing he was going to his home and had
reached the corner of Chestnut and
Mason streets when two men jumped
out from doorway and asked him the
time. Babitts reached for his watch to
convey the desired information when
the taller of the two grabbed the time
piece. The other put the muzzle of a
revolver near Babitts face and told
him to up with his hands" Babitts
did not comply quickly enough and was
dealt a vicious blow in the face with
the revolver.

tagonists and received a kick in the
stomach which rendered him uncon-
scious. When he came to. his assail-
ants had fed, and he felt for his valu-
ables and found them gone also.

had his face dressed. AS soon as he was
able to leave his bed he notified the
police. Detectives were detailed on the
case. They are Of the opinion that the
job was done by the same gang that

PERMANENTLY
EN]OINS BOARD
Judge Seawell Gives Final
Decision in Ferry Building
News Stand Controversy

Superior Judge SeawelI yesterday
made an order directing that the in
junction issued some weeks ago to re-
strain the State Board Of Harbor Com
missioners from awarding the news
stand privilege to James F. Rooney at
$1,000 month be made permanent. The
court holds that Foster & Orear, the
occupants of the news stand, were not
given proper treatment and that the
Harbor Commissioners erred in refus-
ing to consider the Foster & Orear bid
of $500 a month.
1t was shown by uncontradicted
testimony at the trial that Rooney was
offered $500 a month TO stand in with
Foster & Orear on the old basis of $430
a month for the valuable privilege.
Facts brought to light in the contro-
versy show that the concession is now
and for many years has been worth
$500 a month, or $4,000 a year. The
revenue received by the State during
the past ten years for the privilege
