The consul is an authority for the
statement that if the Japanese fleet
is as lightly injured as Is reported
that a naval expedition for the pur-
pose of ravaging the coast of Russia
would not be improbable, if the st.
Petersburg government insists on
continuing the war.
No reports additional to those
which had been sent over the wires
to the press had been received up
to noon, but the Japanese consul
stated that he expected a number late

Would Russia sue for peace i'm

not believe so. He thought that the

such questions, as the whole of the

FAITHFUL DOG
LOSES HIS LIFE

MARVEL, Cal, May 31.-George
rescue from terrible fate to the
faithfulness of a mongrel dog, which
he picked up somewhere in the
desert. Long was In the Providence
mountains prospecting, and came on
an abandoned claim, on which tun-
mel had been driven some rs feet,
and at the further end a shaft had
been sunk perpendicularly to a depth
of Is feet. Long CROPPED his way
into the tunnel, never suspecting the
presence Of the deep shaft until he
stepped into it and fell heavily to the
lower level
When he recovered fro mthe shock
he felt about him. and soon became
aware that the shaft contained no
timbers or other means to AFFORD him
easy escape, and he set to work to
cut out steps in the side of the
shaft, bu the rock proved too hard
for this scheme.
All that night and a good part Of
the next day Long remained pris-
oner in his black cell underground.
Occasionally his dog would enter the
tunnel and whine down into the
shaft, and would then leave for the
outer air.
When the old prospector had given
up all hope, and was contemplating
the use of his knife rather than face
slow starvation, he heard a human
being whistling to the dog.
Then he discovered light feebly
fickering against the ledge above the
shaft, and next he knew he was lying
by a campfire, and James Morelahd
ana two other prospectors were
bending over him.
II appears that the dog had at
tracted the prospectors to the mouth
of the tunnel by it's whining. Long
had swooned and one of the miners
had to be lowered into the shaft by
his companions to tie a rope about
the unconscious miner in order to
haul him out.
In the bottom of the shaft the MIN
ers found what they believed to be
human bones, probably of some other
poor fellow who had fallen into the
trap. They boarded up the mouth Of
the shaft.

satchel of aged Alexander Russell,
who practically lived the life of re-
cluse here for five years. were found
papers showing deposits of at least
half million dollars and proof that
he was worth that much more.
Mr.. Russell was formerly a school
mate of Andrew Carnegie, in Scot
land, and at one time member OF
the firm of D. Crawford & Co. of St.

little room in a house in Brooklyn,

taken up for purposes of economy

LINE OF STEAMERS
NORTHERN PACIFIC WILL
COMPETE FOR TRAFFIC.
Fine Lire Of Steamers TO BE Put On
by the Northern Pacific Between
san Francisco End Portland
STEAMERS WIN BE Ready by the
Tine the orih Bank Road Is Com
Dlctel.

As soon as the north bank railroad
is completed the Northern Pacific
will have two of the finest steamers
in the world put in service between
Portland apl san Francisco accord
ing TO report that was given out to-
day. says the Portland Telegram.
Plans ior the steamers are said to
have been drawn ana the contracts
will be let in time to construct and
have them ready for service upon the
completion OF the north bank railroad.
The steamers viii be flrst-class. and
their equipment will be the equal of
any vessels in the Atlantic trade. They
are to be built to maintain speed of
% knots an hour. and will make the
trip between Portland and San Fran
cisco in SO hours or less. While speed
is to be the main thing for which they
will be built, passenger and freight
accommodations will be made on a
scale to handle the growing coast
trade.
The staterooms and berths will be
furnished with the most up-to-date
fittings. Each stateroom will have a
bath and will be amply large to per-
NIT of the comfort of passengers.
The freight business which the
Northern Pacific would probably
look to for the main supply would be
the carrying of wheat. They could
easily secure enough of the grain to
make more than expenses. and the re-
naming freight charges and passen-
ger fares would be profit. Tons OF
wheat are stacked up in the grain
districts of Oregon and Washington
because of lack of transportation and
warehouse facilities.
The question as to where the
steamers are to be built is uppermost
in the minds of the steamship men.
However, that has been kept a Sc
cret. Some think that they will be
constructed in the east and sent
around the Horn. Others think that
they may be built in San Francisco.

The survey for the extension of the

will be built as soon as the line to
