WRECKACE
NOT FOUND

Washington, Dec. 26.-The treasury
department has received from Capt. c.
G. Fenger, of the revenue cutter Rush,
report dated Sitka, Dec. 5. stating
that. after continuous cruising along
the Alaska coast, he has been unable
to find any trace of the steamer Discov-
cry, that sailed from Yakutat for Seat
tie, Oct. 30.
Capt. Fenger says that reports that
the wreckage of the Discovery has
been found near Yakutat are not true
in fact, there is no authentic informa-
tion than any wreckage of the lost
steamer has been found. He was re-
liabiy informed at Yakutat. however,
that the Discovery was known to be
unseaworthy when she sailed from
Yakutat, having come into that port
from Dutch Rarbor, after trip, dur
ing which, at one time, she had three
feet of water in the dining saloon. 1t
is Capt. Fenger's opinion that the Dis
covery foundered in a gale ut sea.

weeks course of lectures. He believes
that couple of lecturers of repute
could be induced to come here from the
States for "a couple of weeks, as well as
a first-class aggregation of musical
talent, The idea has merit without
doubt. and if it can be carried into
effect, it would be an excellent thing
