5000 Reward For
 Recovery Bullion

Passengers on the steamer Sarah, which passed upriver Thursday, state that absolutely no clew whatever has unearthed regarding the disappearance of gold bullion consignment from the steamer Ida May while at Tanana last Wednesday.
 The stolen bullion was in bricks and was valued at $78,0OO, and simply van ished from the boat while the latter was lying tied up to the river bank in front of the N. c. Co.'S. post at Panama.
 The Northern Commercial Company has offered reward of $5, 900 for the recovery of the missing gold. It is ru- mored at Tanana that several of the crew of the Ida May are under suspic- ion as being implicated in the theft, as it is thought improbable that such heavy package could be removed from the steamer without connivance with some one of the crew.
 The prevailing opinion around Panama is that the heavy box containing the bullion was lowered over the vessels side into a small boat and the latter then quietly dropped down stream.

Creator Territory
 Commits Suicide

NOME, June 23. Joseph R. Binns, formerly lieutenant in the United States army, and for some time engag- ed in the transfer business in Nome and who left here June II, jumped over- board from the Ohio June IA, and was drowned.
 Lieut.. Binns was man of consider able intelligence. He had the spirit of the true reformer, and abuses of cer- tain kinds went against his grain. He brought an action against the United States authorities here to detremine the question of the validity of the lic- ense law in Alaska. This case he took to the supreme court of the United States. It is still quoted as one of the most celebrated cases on record. The supreme court, in order to hold that the license law was valid, had to hold that Alaska was territory.

Company K Must Gut Trail
 From Fairbanks to Valdez

Company K shortly to be relieved at Ft. Gibbon will cut it's way out of the country. Orders have been received at Ft. Gibbon that the company will pro ceed to Fairbanks and work on the trail between that place and Valdez, boarding the transports at Valdez.
 There is possibility that the reliev- ing company repeat the performance from Valdez in. Advices from Tanana state that the men bitterly resent the innovation. Heretofore the trip down river and the sea trip from St. Michael has rounded off Alaskan service.

st. Petersburg, Aug. 11.-Count
HeyGen, a member of the douma, in
letter printed in the Novo Vremya
today gives the lie direct to the czar,
in connection with the recent attempt
of Stolypm to form a cabinet. Hey
den says he and his associates refus-
ed to enter the cabinet because their
plans for reform were rejected, as
Stolypln demanded that they become
bureaucrats.
The letter is bold and frank, and
created a great sensation by declaring
that the czar is deliberately trying TO
regain full authority and will only ad-
nit as advisors those favoring a des-
potic rule.
The general impression is that =
driving the Heyden party from him
the czar has done the most in his pow
er to hasten a crisis.

land. When the bank failed Kowals-
XII had $500 of his own money on de-
posit, and his immediate relatives had
