Engagement Expected Hourly.

St. Petersburg. May 27.-The ten
sion in naval circles is very great.
News of the meeting of the Russian
and Japanese fleets is expected hour
ly. A last nights dispatch of the AS
sociated Press from Toxic says it
was rumored that the fleets had al
ready been engaged in the straits of
Korea. This aroused intense interest
at the admiralty, but nothing confr-
matory had been received up to noon
today, and the majority of the Off
GERS are inclined to doubt the accu-
racy of the Toxic report, believing
that Rojestvensky with his fighting
ships is headed northward for the
eastern part of Japan. Others, on the
contrary consider it quite likely that
Rojestvensky. after heading for the
Pacific doubled back and will take
the straightest course for Vladivos-
took.

TOOK B0LDEST COURSE
Instead of Skirting and Entering ia
pan Sea by circuitous Route, the
Russian Commander Makes Short
est Cut for vIadivostock.-May Be
Battling Now.

Toxic. (4:3O p. m.) May 27.-Admi
raj Rojestvenskys fleet has been
sighted off Tsu Islands in the straits
of Korea.
The sighting of Rojestvensky's
fleet off Tsu islands would seem to
indicate that the Russian commander
has determined to take the boldest
course, and instead of skirting and
entering the sea of Japan by Tsugaru
or Laperouse straits, to push thro'
the straits of Korea and try to reach
Vladivostock. which is about $40
miles from Tsu islands. That he will
be able to do so without at least be-
ing harrassed by the Japanese seems
improbable, and the report circulated
in Toxic today that the two fleets
have been engaged in the straits OF
Korea may turn out to be correct.
There is a possibility that Rojestven-
sky may have deceived Togo, and
that the latter is still at the base he
established north of the island of For
mosa, in which case a general en-
gagement may not take place before
the Russians reach Vladivostock. 1t
is also possible that the Russian YES
sells sighted in the straits of Korea
form only a portion of the Russian
feet

October / the new brand law passed
by the legislature, went into effect, re-
quirng all stock brands 10 be filed
with the state auditor, says the Boise
Capital News. The delay in putting
this section of the law into effect was
to enable the county recorders to sup
ply certified copies Of all brands and
to notify stockowners of the proposed
change.
This has been complied with and
more than a thousand different brands
have been received by the state audi
tor. This number is being increased
by each days mail. All filings with
the county recorders after October
are considered void, so that the state
auditors office is now the only place
where the proper filing can be made.
The state auditor however. has a con-
dition to meet which will require the
action of the state board to settle.
The law requires that the auditor
shall deliver to each county every
quarter loose sheet containing rec
ord of all brands filed for the entire
state. These loose leaves are to be

Alaska WEALTH
GOLD IN BUCKETS, BARRELS,
AND GOODS BOXES.
Herman Chaplin, of Seattle, Tells of
the Fascinating View Which He Be-
held In the North--WonderfuI EN-
pirc Awaiting Development There.

Gold in buckets, boxes and bags,
dazzling dust and nuggets, piled about
like sand in a children's playhouse
and overflowing the vaults that could
not keep back its yellow flood.
This was the sight that met the gaze
of Herman Chaplin when he reached
the bank al Fairbanks, Alaska, where
the yellow dust was awaiting ship
ment to the assay office to be melted
into bricks, but not the sort usually
manipulated by the bunco man.
Mr.. Chapin Is vice president of the
Seattle National bank and accustom-
ed to the sight of wealth, but the view
he had of the $1,000, 900 in dust took
away his breath He was touring in
the north through the last six weeks
and visited the 2-year-old camp. Mr..
Chaplin, speaking of his visit, said:
Il made the trip partly for pleasure
and partly from sense of duty, for
we In Seattle have profiled so much
from this northern country that il
seemed the least some of us could do
was to go and look at it. | travelled
something more than 5000 miles, and
without the least discomfort.
zone is impressed with the vastness
Of the Alaskan territory. From Skag-
way to Nome is a distance, including
the trip up the Tanana to Fairbanks
of $500 miles. almost all of which is
broad navigable river. Only a few
thousand people do the business of
this immense stretch of country. If
with its present development, this
country has proved such a valuable
tributary to Seattle, it is not difficult
to look into the future as the country
develops and see one cause at least
for the realizing of our Seattle ambi-
tons.
The trade, though, is one that
cannot be held unless it is properly
cared for. 1t is too valuable. and the
people there are too sensible to give
their trade anywhere except where
they get value received. The people
you meet impress you as hardy, ener-
getic men. who have all the health
and energy typical of the north cli-
mate.
"They told me that the towns were
quiet. but If so, | am sure that the
tributary country was busy. People
have learned great deal since the
first I<londike rush.
"'rhe dance hall element is much
less in evidence then formerly. Now
there are good many men with
moderate sized stakes, and instead of
scattering their money to the four
winds on a barroom floor they keep
it and are on the lookout for other
mining ventures.
This condition has helped the
Fairbanks district materially. for men
with means and experience have
.flocked in. and instead of having to
learn the experience, as was the case
at Dawson, they started to work with
experience at their finger-tips.

Grccks Are Wild Indians.

The gang of 200 Greeks comprised
the construction and steel crew on the
mountain division of the Southern
Pacific between this city and Rose
burg. and recently gave much trou-
BILE because of their disorderly out
breaks. says a Roseburg dispatch
They have a curious and almost bar
barous custom of feastiug about twice
each month. These feast days. oi
nights. are orgies of the most passion
ate sort. and compare very favorably
with the ghost and snake" dances
of the American Indians.
In preparation for these feasts one
or two of the crew are sent to town tc
purchase the beer and mutton. The
beer is bought by the keg and the
mutton taken alive. Frequently as
many as 20 sheep are bought aud con-
sumed at a single feast. The kegs OF
beer are put on tap and every man
imbibes as freely as he likes. The
sheep selected for the slaughter are
first driven frantically around camp.

FOR MUNICIPAL OWNERSHIP.
Seattle Worlingmcn VIII Organize q
New Political Party.

An independent political party in
Seattle. with municipal ownership as
its platform, says the Seattle Star.
Such is the plan of the local union
men for the spring election, and ac-
tive steps have already been taken to-
ward the formation of such a party.
Five weeks ago, alta meeting of 30
prominent local labor leaders, com
mittee, consisting of G. w. Harmon,
James Murphy and Frank Cotterill,
was selected to make thorough in
vestigation of the municipal owner
ship plan and the possibility of it's be-
ing carried to victory in Seattle.
In order not to let the movement at
that time be known as emanating Of
ficially from the local labor federation
the labor leaders Informally formed
themselves into an organization
known as the Municipal League club.
Last night the club met and listened
to the committees report, which is as
follows:
AT the time this committee was APP
pointed it was understood that its first
duty should be to feel out public sem
timent toward the question of munich
pal ownership of our street railway
system. This was to be done in order
to enable the committee to make such
a report to you as could be used in
guiding your future actions.
I'm its intercourse with the public
your committee has steadily represent
ed that it had no authority to speak
for organized workingmen as a whole.
But it has said that the public owner
ship Of public utilities was funda-
mental doctrine Of the American Fed
Grafton of Labor, and that the mem
bership Of unions affiliated with that
great central labor organization had
been taught that doctrine for many
years.
Its Investigations have developed
the fact that there is a very strong
sentiment in favor of municipal own
ership. The sentiment is so strong
that there is little doubt that it could
carry the next city election if means
can be found to unite il into COM
pact voting mass. At the present
time II is totally unorganized.'
