A special from Dawson to the Seattle Post-Intelligencer, under date of May 9th, says: A huge ice jam in the river has flooded the town of Forty Mile and the residents have been driven to the hills by the high water. The entire lower part of the town is inundated. The telegraph office was abandoned early this morning. The operator had
 been instructed to report by cutting in as soon as possible. He has not done so, which adds strength to the belief of general disaster The stores of the big companies and many others are prob ably completely submerged. At last reports the river was full ofgreat cakes of ice, surging and seething like an i'm mense boiling pot. The steamer Louise escaped from perilous position at the mouth of Cliff creek and is now safe at Eagle. The steamer Leah is still aground in dangerous place in Cliff creek. Five steamers and eight man. moth barges were left far out of the water on the beach at Dawson by the sudden dropping of the water. After the passing out of the ice jam the water fell ten feet during the night. Some barges may be permanently dam aged, but the steamers are safe. All craft at the wharves before the river rose have been left high and dry on the beach and cannot be launched for days until another rise comes. The situa tion is extraordinary and much damage has resulted. The sudden fall of the water has left thousands of tons of ice upon the banks, which are still piled up many feet high. The river is clear ing and the first steamer will clear for Hootalinqua Wednesday. A special to the Sun says the steamer Mount Royal ran on Skeena river bar while battling like a ram with the opposition steamer which was also caught in the same place. The boat will probably be fioated without great damage.

Again the rush for the far North be- gins. They go in the spring and return in the fall. Last year about 5000 went to Nome on what is termed the first fleet, while this season double that number is predicted and arranged for. Many returned disgusted last fall, and said it would be the last of the excite ment in that district, yet this spring they go in increasing numbers. The greatness of Alaska IS just beginning to dawn on the minds of the people, and the passenger traffic is yet in it's infancy. The Pacific Coast will profit by the Alaskan trade beyond the dreams of the most sanguine.-N. ". Miner.

BIRMINGHAM IS
 MAKING HOT RAGE
MILWAUKEE AND COLUMBUS, O.. ARE ALSO AFTER NEXT MEET. ING OF BROTHERHOOD OF LOCO MOTIVE FIREMEN.

Buffalo, September 2z-The entire ros- ter of grand officers of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen was reelected for two years at todays session of the ninth biennial convention. Some opposi- tion to the reelection of Grandmaster Hannahan developed today and Frank McMany of Grand Rapids was placed in the field against him. When it came to
 a vote, however, MT. Hanrahan earned the convention by a large majority.
 The grand officers are: Grandmaster John Hannahan. First Vice Grandnaster Charles A. Wilson, Phillipsburg; Second Vice Grandmaster Timothy Shea of Peo- ria Third Vice Grandmaster Charles W.. Maer of Parsons, Kan; Fourth Vice Grandmaster Eugene A. Ball of Stratford, Ontario; Grand Secretary and Treasurer James Carter, Peoria, H.. editor of offi- cial organ, John A McNamee of Indian apolis
 Previous to the election of officers the convention listened to addresses by repre- sentatives of the Buffalo chamber of commerce who urged the delegates to select this city as their permanent head quarters This question probably will be loft in the hands of the grand officers and the friends of Peoria seem likely to be successful in inducing the firemen to have their heado :arters in that city.
 There is a sharp contest on for the con yention of 1906, Milwaukee Birmingham and Columbus, O., figuring most promi- nently in the race.

JOHN CUNNEN SAYS
 ODELL IS TO BLAME
SAYS NEW WORKS GOVERNOR HAS REPEATEDLY IGNORED HIS ADVICE THAT APPROPRIATIONS WERE NOT CONSTITUTIONAL.

Albany, N. Y, September 27.-Attorney General John Cunnen the only democrat ic member of the present state adminis- tration, tonight issued statement in answer to the recently published chal- lenge of Governor Odell, in which the latter was quoted as having asked if the perversion of public funds. about which so much was said in the demo- cratic platform, has been going on at Albany during the last four years. what has the democratic party been doingY and as having alleged that the attorney general Is a member of nearly all the state boards
 MT. Cunnen asserts that he Is not member of any of the state boards against which the democrats have charged extravaganza and perversion Of public money, and he declares that during the late years of his term as attorney gem eral he has repeatedly advised Governor Odell that appropriations of public mon eys made by the Legislature were unau- thorized by the constitution, but he has ignored my advice and given such appro- priations his approval"
 MT. Cunnen accused Governor Odell or being more disposed to make the state serve his party than to make his party Verve the state," and denies that the gov eSnor has followed his official advice re- garding proposed legislation submitted to his tudgement"

Scouting Parties Busy.

St. Petersburg. September 2S-(2:05 a. m.)-The war commission adjourned early last evening without issuing fur ther news from the front.
 The Mukden telegram to the Berlin Lokal Anz. iger reporting that the Ja- panese had crossed the Run river fifty miles above the city. is believed to re- fer to scouting parties of Japanese whose presence teere was recorded in the Asso- ciated Press dispatches of September 26
 The movement of Japanese forces on the Liao river which was reported in a dispatch from General Sakharon to the general staff on September 26 is all the more significant since Cianchan is the starting point of roads leading to Tie Pass, Mukden and sinmintin. The an nouncement that the Russians are forti. tying Fakoman, twenty-five miles north east of Mukden, shows that General Kuropatkin is preparing to check the Ranking movement on Tie Pass from the west, in case Sinmintin should have to be evacuated
 The entire absence of news from Port Arthur, 1t is felt, indicates a closer block Hde there. Hitherto. dispatches from General Stoessel have come through semi weekly A telegram received from Ba- toum reporting that reservists are be- Ing transported along the Caucasian coasts, brings the first intimation that troops there are being mobilized

Last summer I felt impelled to write a letter calling upon my countrymen to put down lynching. But labor union terrorism and crime are as great national menace, as lynch law.
 Let me tell you that the first duty of the officers of the law, whether they be sheriffs, constables, municipal officers, mayors, governors or the President him. self, is to maintain public order and put down the mob with an iron hand"
 After advising Donnelly to put a stop to the strike the President Is represent ed as saying:

 Professor Newcomb, MT. Munsterberg,
 Ladies and Gentlemen:
 T wish to say that peculiarly appre- ciate the privilege of greeting this body. Perhaps the happiest feature of our mod ern world life Is the steadily increasing recognition of the fact that 1t must be a world life; that no nation can hope for the fullest development if 1t confines itself exclusively within It's own boun- daries; that progress must come from frank recognition of the fact that each nation can help others, and can be helped by them. I feel that not only do associa- tions and gatherings such as this mean much for the scientific, the artistic ana the intellectual development of all the na- tons taxing part III tnenl' pul Aeei aiSO that these gatherings all help to prepare the way for the time when the great rules of right and of equity shall prevail among individuals. I welcome you here. l feel that you are doing great work, and that 1t Is an honor on behalf of the American republic to greet you"
 The delegates among whom were many of the most distinguished scientists of Eu. rope and America, were then introduced to the President by Professor Newoomo and Professor Munsterberg.

H UTE, MONT, September 27.- K When Senator Fairbanks and his - party arrived here they found the republican leaders much excited over the publication In the Miners magazine, pub lished at Denver by the Western Feder- ation of Miners. of what purported to be a denunciation of labor unions by Presi- dent Roosevelt and denial of it's authen- ticity by the President.

Talk of M citation.

Rome, September 27.-Much interest is felt here in the report that Premier Gioletti is to meet Count von Buelow, the German chancellor at Hamburg. One of the many reasons that might prompt such meeting Is possible discussion of mediation in the interest of peace in the far east.
