steamship Con,bine.

A movement was inaugurated to-day to start a petition for the federal judge to call q grand jury to investigate an alleged combine in violation of the Sherman law by the Pacific Coast and Alaska Steam ship companies. The petitioners allege that the combine has agreed upon a schedule of rates and wharf charges that is an open violation
 of the sherman law and ruinous to the trade of the district It is further alleged that there is q dis crimination on the part of the com bine in favor of large shippers, one of which will have such an arpar- ent advantage as to ruin many of the merchants.-Juneau Dispatch.

Welsh Is Cleared.

Martin Welsh, a heavy contrac- tor on the Alaska Central, passed through Valdez on the Santa Clara on his way to Seward.
 Mr. Welsh is the gentleman who had some trouble with one of his employees, and, in a fight. the em- ployee fell over in a fit and expired A post-mortem examination was held which disclosed the fact that the deceased had badly diseased heart, and the coroner's jury exon erated MT. Welsh and assigned tine canse of death to heart trouble.
 Mir. Welsh also had d prelim:- nary hearing before the U. $. Com missioner, at which he was again exonerated from any blame. At the request of friends of the de- ceased, the coronerat Seattle caused a post-mortem examination of the remains, which confirmed the two examinations held in Alaska.
 While the affair is unfortunate for all parties concerned, yet in these three investigations, it seems that Mir. Welsh is in no way res ponsible for the death of the party. It was one of those unfortunate af- fairs in life in which no one is really to blame, and the three in- vestigations will probably close the unfortunate incident as far as the public is concerned.
