This change Of sentiment was caus-

houses in the Chinese port. They had
been placed there by the Chinese mer-
chants when the boycott was first In
stituted. This occurred during the In

here continues as serious as a be i'm

among many Of moderates, that the
only way by which the country can b.

through the practical abdication OF

the Grand Duke Nicholas, General

who shall hold the ruling power until
order has teen restored.
The mass of the population, un-
doubtedly, would welcome anything
which would restore quiet to the coun-
try. Strikes have effected every one
adversely and people are tired of this
situation. It Is impossible for any
one to walk through the streets of st.

ton Is freely offered that his fall will

For M urdcr
Posse Hunts For Montgomery,
 Who, it is Suspected
Killed Three Partners

A posse was recently sent out from Eagle to capture and bring in a man named Montgomery on a charge of murder. Montgomery has cabin near the head of White river, where his wife and child were seen this summer by some prospectors from this section. They were living in a most destitute con dition, and when asked as to the whereabouts of her husband stated that he had crossed Scolai pass to the Nizina for provisions.
 Last March Montgomery induced two men to leave Eagle with him to go to the head of the White riv- CT, where he claimed to have dis covered rich diggings. The men have completely disappeared, and Montgomery has given out the story that he left them on a tribu- tary creek prospecting, though the people at Eagle know that they had only grub enough with them to last a few days, and it is sus- pected that he has done away with the men in order to secure their personal effects.
 Three years ago this same Mont gomery, while living with the natives on the Nabesna meta man from Dawson whom he induced to go on a, prospecting trip. Shortly after Montgomery returned alone and with a bad scar across his face. He claimed that his partner was lost in the ice, but while the natives did not hear any quarrel they saw Montgomery bury the body of a man on the bank of Jack creek, a tributary of the Nabesna. The man had several thousand dollars and a fine gold watch when he left camp.
 About three years ago Montgom- cry came into Valdez claiming to have located some very valuable copper properties. He secured a couple of thousand dollars as a bond on the property with the un- derstanding that he was to attend
 o that seasons work. Neither he nor the property have been heard of in this locality since.

ounces a day to the man.
 Rough estimates of the output of the creek for the season put the amount from $2O,O0O to s4O.OOO. Much more would have been accom- plished but for the flood, which caused a loss to every outfit except on Lucky gulch.
 Will Crary came over from Clear water, where the Heron Bros, Howell and Shaw are working. and spent the Fourth of July at this camp. He left the next day for Slate.
 We have no regular mail service here, letters being brought in by passing prospectors or Indians, but We have been fortunate in hearing from the outside about once a month. The PRosPEcroR comes with every mail and is in great de- mand. It is the only paper reach- ing this camp.

Little Clearwater Camp, Shu- shitna, July 7-Sluicing started on this creek July ?. Work could have been done as early as May 20, but the boys were cross-cutting the ground, and have been busy since turning the creek, digging drains, etc. This stream was located last year by a party consisting of Fred. Date, Harry Shoup, Ike Loomis, Jim Heron, Ben Howell and c. D.. Shaw, who have the entire creek staked. They spent part of last summer prospecting the ground, but did not fully determine its value so this season the Heron Bros. and Ben Howell moved in an outfit with the intention of making a thorough test. A cross-cut to bed- rock has been dug and the pay located, and judging from pans taken from the cut where they are sluicing, they will have a good cleanup.
 Bedrock, which is of clay is from seven to seven and a half feet deep on this claim, No. p below dis covery. The creek is a tributary of the Clearwater, which runs into Shushitna above the forks, and is aDout twenty miles from Valdez creek.

 This camp is above timberline. Coal is used for fuel. On Coal creek, a tributary of Big Clearwater, a ledge of first-class coal has been located. It crops out in the gulches for about five miles along the range, but the principal exposure is on the above named creek, where ledge about 30 feet wide and reach ing nearly to the top of the moun- tain has been found. It is a first class coal, burning well in Yukon stove by using a grate.
