Algeciras, Spain, March 21.-The
conference committee today again
sought to reconcile the Moroccan police
question, but adjourned, leaving a num-
Der of disputed points unsettled. The
meeting, however, produced a good i'm
preston, desire to reach an agreement
appearing to dominate,
The next sitting of the conference is
dependent on the completion of the
new Austrian project for settlement
of the police dispute. 1t is hoped that

it is admitted that the Casa Blanca pro-

The princi pal delegates are strongly
of the opinion that if Austria s new
suggestions follow reasonable and
practical lines, they must mean a sue
cessful conclusion of the conference.

Philadelphia. March 21-Political re-

notable single victory yesterday. The
famous midnight traction franchise
steal of 1901 virtually was undone. The
Philadelphia Rapid Transit company,
the backbone of the Widener- Elkins
Traction clique, whose interests extend
into many states, agreed to disgorge the
stolen franchises and to pay the city
$4OO, 900.
Competition, which the traction mon,
opoly never would permit, is almost as
sured, and incidentally the Wabash
railroad probably will gam. its long
sought entrance into Philadelphia. More
over, the city will regain franchises
worth millions of dollars.

THE GOLD OF ALASKA.
q Was First Found by . Russisn
- Trader In 1872.

~ Was First Found by Aubstnn
- Trader In 1872.
Gold was first discovered In Alaska
on the Anauk river, tributary Of the
Kuskokowim river. which joins the
latter stream about twenty-five miles
below the trading post Of Kalamalro-
dsSy. The Anauk river was discovered
by Ivan Simenson Lukeen in 1892, AZ
which time he built q fort, called Luz
keen's fort, ON the Kuskowim river,
twenty-five miles above the mouth Of
the Anauk. 1t was partly destroyed
by natives in 1s4I and rebuilt by Ka.
iamakoff. Russian trader. afterward
and called Kalamaiof redoulJt.
In 1882 the headquarters Of the Rus
sian-American Trading company wore
at Sltka, and supplies were transport
ed from thence to Lukeen's fort by
way OF Nushagak river, Tic-chic river
and lake and down the Anauk river to
the Kuskowim river and thence up.
stream twenty-five miles to tile fort.
In 1887 the yearly supplies were sent
In by way Of the mouth OF the Kusko-
win river and the old way abandoned
as a summer route and used only for
the purpose OF vending out the malls
during the winter by dog teams. II
was the only winter route the Russians
ever used from any point on the Yukon
to the outside (sitka) and was only
abandoned for the purpose after they
left the country.
II was while on one of these trips in
1882 that the Russians discovered gold
on the Anauk. and It is known today as
the Yellow river of the Russlans. II
Is not known whether they ever at
tempted mining on any large scale OF
whether they found gold in paying
quantities. but 1t is thought to be the
first time on record OF gold being found
In this country.
Lnkeen was born OF Russian and
Spanish-American creole parents In the
Ross colony in California. He was
well educated at the sitka school and
proved to be an active, energetic and
intelligent officer. In 1868 Lukeen as
cended the Yukon river from st. Mi
chaels to Fort Gibbon, at the Hudson

THE TELEPHONE GIRL.

Without doubt this much-tired
public-server is the object of Il vast
deal Of unwarrantcd and undeservcd
abuse. Men will walk into store

will quietly wait until one is at
leisure and then give his order. AT
the ticket station he never tries to
shove everyone else out of his way,
but dccently awaits his turn. At
ch'~,h he never demands the i'm
mediate service of the usher.
But let him call for central,
and if he does not get immediate
reply, his patience takes wings, and
ne Is ready to call into play all the
accumulated oaths of life time
indeed, he generally makes use ofall
ne darcs; ut least he makes himself
very unpleasant and as troublesome
as possible. All of which is NOT
calculated to swecten the temper Of
the hello girls. If a man wou,d
Just stop and think moment. rcas-
onlng that these girls are sometimes
rushed far more than clerks in q
store or ticket agents, they would
act with more common sense and
reason, cause the operators less
trouble and worry and in the end
secure Tor themselves better service
For 1t is certainty that these girls
are not going to do their best for q
knocker. The calls in central of-
flce are sometimes a dozen at once
and to answer all in a moment
would be an utter impossibiIitv
They have their busy moments as
well as all others and they are not
super-human.
Then let Us see that we do not
lose patience with these girls; let
us be more consideratc. And thew
Will be thankful we are sure and
better able to render more efficient
service.

Immediately the crowd, which by

snatching at the ribbons, and then
tearing the ribbons from her dress
or scrambling to merely touch her.
All efforts to calm the crowd or to
withstand it's rush were futile, and
at last she was forced to retreat to
the state house, and there, even
behind barred doors, she was
hardly safe.
