is that at least one moving machine
was shipped to Alaska, for this item
appears in the official records: "Mow-
ers, and parts of, $65." Altogether,
agricultural machines and imple-
ments to the value of $1,624 were
shipped to the territory during the
year. Another significant item in the
list of shipments to Alaska is,
Nursery stock, $4O5" The fact is,
the people of Southeastern Alaska
have learned that fruits can be raised
in the region south of Skagway, and
1t is probable that orchards will not
be an unusual sight in that part of
the territory in few years. Apples
have already been raised at Wrangel.
Another sign of development in the
far north was the shipment during
the last year of Cars for steam rail-
ways, $19,808," and rails for rail
ways, $107,395." Bicycles to the val
ue of 1,661 were also shipped north.
NorthbOund shipments of provi-
sions and manufactured goods show a
great increase over the previous
year.

larly anxious to aid in making them
pay the penalty.
Mrs Hoyt declares that her
daughter was not taken to a house of
ill-fame i'm Vancouver, as was stated
in local paper, but says that Gates
and Johnson woman were picked up
by the Vancouver police upon their
arrival there, before any word had
been sent from the Tacoma officers.
AS to the manner in which Gates
succeeded in inducing the girl to
leave with him, Mrs. Hoyt refuses to
say other than that she believes the
man had some peculiar influence over
her daughter.
Miss HOyt is glad to have escaped
from her impending ruin, and now
fully realizes her grave mistake in
leaving her home to go with her
dangerous chance acquaintance.

Frank Novak says his wife. Mary

unpleasant habits he asks for a legal
separation and tho custody Of their

brings the information that they are
not afraid of the smelter smoke:
neither are all OF them so well sup
piled with this worlds goods that
they don't need any more work. The
difficulty appears to be that a big
blunder was made when so much
work was put In one district. Prob
ably three firms In the city can ham
die a $50, 900 contract, and they now
have as much work on hand as can be
completed before the wet season COM
mences.
There are a number of individuals
and contracting firms OF small means
who would like to get a share of this
work, but they cannot get the capital
to handle it, Consequently they are
crowded out and must see the work
wait until the big fellows get ready
to come along and take IL at good
figure.
1t is pointed out that II the North
End district had been divided in four
there would have been a number of
bids received and the work would
have been finished this fall AS 1t is
now, the work will probably have
to be left until next spring, in spite
of the fact that many old plank
walks in the district are In a dan
gerous condition.
Commissioner Welsh admits that
the district is too large and says that
no more sidewalk districts will be
made where the cost OF the new work
will exceed $4,000.
Other contracts ggregating $780,
900 are to be let next morth Com
missioner Welsh expects that before
the end OF the year the new work
contracted for will reach the half
million mark.
Some Of the new sidewalk districts
in which contracts are soon to be let
include the following: A street, Pa

DELUDED GIRL BROUGHT
BACK TO Her HOME

Mrs. Emily w. Hoyt has returned
from Vancouver, B. c., with her 16-
year-old daughter, Norma, who, it
is alleged, was enticed away from
her home by Horace Gates and Gertie
johnson, two well known characters
in the Tacoma underworld. Mrs. Hoyt
is very reticent in discussing the
case, saying that the particulars of
the unpleasant affair will all come
out when the offenders are placed on
trial
just at present Gates and his wo-
man pal are awaiting trial before a
Canadian magistrate on the charge
of procuring, having been bound over
at their preliminary hearing. Miss

"The Japanese artillery fire was re-

He ran to hds rescue, but was unable

workmen met this rlorning to discuss
the strike situation. 1t is claimed
that the board is considering plans
for the continuation of the strike, but
the packers assert that the butchers
are planning to call the strike off.
This statement is borne out by the
fact that the butchers sent a sub
committee to visit the packers.
The packers reported that there
were many desertions in the ranks of
the strikers this morning, with

ALASKA TRADE
SHOWS INCREASE

Some unusually interesting details
of the Alaska trade appear in the
latest monthly summary, published
by the department of commerce. Not
only was the fiscal year which closed
June 80 the biggest year in the Alas
ka trade, but some of the goods ship
ned to the territory were of a kind
almost unknown in Alaska a few
years ago. The list gives some idea
of the remarkable development OF
the Northern country.

APPEAL OF STRIKERS FOR PEACE
CONFERENCE SPURNED BY PACKERS

CHICAGO, Aug. 29.-As a result
of the meeting held by the executive
board of the Butchers union this
morning, a letter was sent to the
packers asking for a joint conference.
The packers replied that further ne
gotiations would do no good and
stated that they would not again
meet the labor leaders.
The packers then issued a state
ment to the public to the effect that
the plants are operating at almost
their normal capacity and that the
men now in their employ will be re-
tanned. New working conditions are
to be inaugurated to provide full
time for all now at work and re-
duction of the number of men en-
ployed will follow.
Can Workers Called Out.
Two hundred can workers in the
plant of the American company were
called out this morning on account of
the alleged discovery that two cars Of
cans had been delivered to the pack
ers dn violation of an agreement the
company made with the union not to
furnish any cans to the packers dur
ing the strike.

SAN FRANCISCO. Aug. 29.-
After a brief hearing, Captain John
Madden, u. s. A., has been granted a
divorce from Edith Particle Madden,
the defendant failing to appear. The
hearing was expected to develop into
one of the greatest sensations in the
history Of the army, but only few
witnesses were called and the antiei-
pated dragging in of names high up
in the army roster failed to material
