Victoria, B. C., May 24-Steamer Soerabaya, a Russian blockade runner during the Japanese war, lies frozen in the ice near Nicoaiefsk, with the men of her crew lying cold and stiff on her decks. frozen to death by the rigors of Arctic winter.
 This report was brought in today by the steamship Teucer, arriving from Yokohama. She passed the Soerabaya near enough to see her situation, but owing to the ice pack could not ap- proach closely. The ice-bound steam CT lies off the Siberian coast. During the war in attempting to run the blockade of Vladivostok she was apprehended by the Japanese warShiPs and to escape fled to the Arctic from which she has never returned.

Steamer Corwin arrived in Seward Sunday morning at o'clock and sailed for Nome at 3 in the afternoon, adding twenty-four first class and'twenty-seven steeraget to her already large passenger list So heavily loaded was she that Capt West refused to take all the men who had bought SecOnd-claSS tickels and Agent Gray was obliged to refund $40 to eleven men who had to be left behind. The Corwin made no stop between Seattle and Seward except at ComaN on Vancouver is- land. where she took coal, She also replenjshed her coal bins at Seward. She came straight, ignoring all other coast towns.
 Among the Seward men who sailed on the Corwin for the bonanza camp on Boring strait were Frank x. Cow ans and 4. W..JohnSon, both of whom have been in business here since fall, but being old Nomeites could not re- sist the temptation to return to the hust}ing northern town for the summer

 IL had been believed for several. month, that Capt.

Capt Freeman of kuStloh saw him pass that point. The oa' was stormy and the water very rough.
 These facts have been known since ,he middle of winter but uotwithstaud- inc Capt. Woodmau's failure Co reach Ssldoyia l, had been hoped for long lime that he might have pat into some harbor along .Uenentusu.a and would urn up aG.v. later.

He places the cost of the cables at SI.l2I. .OOO and the cost of land telc- graph at SS6LOOO
 Gen. Allen say! if the sale iS made the government should require con- tract which will insure good service to the government and the residents of the territory at low rates, and provide for reasonable extensions, particularly an extension of the cable to Wrangel and Ketchikan. He believes also that a requirement should be made of a consolidation of service with foreign cables if any should be laid to connect ing ports.

SCHOORER MARION IS
 WRECKED NEAR UNGA

The three masted schooner Marion, or20D tons, belonging othe Alaska Cod Fishing Company of San Francisco, wa, wrecked April | on Sanak island, near Uugu island and sank soon after ward. The entire crew was saved and the men were broughtouJ by the Dora. All are destitute. having ,avednothing but the clothes they wore when the vessel struck the rocks.
 Within uweuv-row hours after the schooner grounded she was broken to pieces and the floating remnants scat tered to thc four winds. Not frag- ment of wreckagc remained above water on the spot where the boat was wrecked. Her entire cargo was lost. It consisted of supplies for the com pany', stations along the coast.
 Paul Buckley thinks it probable the boat was the barkentine Marion, ' which brought the famous mining eX- petition to Cook Inlet in 1896. The description of the lost Marion as a three-masted schooner was given to the Gateway by PwSer Thwaites of the Dora. but as a three-masted schooner and barkentine are very similar it is likely that his informant may have been confused The size of the boat and the nature of her employment, Mr. Buckley says, are that of the old barkentinc Marion.
 The Marion brought l22 pro,pectors ro Cook inlet from san Francisco in 1896. Only two are now on Kcnai peninsula. SD far as Mr. Buckley knows, and those came to Seward from the outside within the past few days. One is Ar Buckley himself who came up on the Santa Clara after spending the winter in the states, and the other is TT. B. Tansey. who came here on the Portland after several years in Arizona. G. W. Davies, of the old Crow creek placer mining company. who went outside last fall, was another He and Mir. Buckley have been around Cook inlet nearly all the time since.

 Mr. Moses was not attempting to conceal them but claimed that he was within his rights, The skins were passed at Kodiak and Mr. Putnam de- cided to pass them along to Valdez, meanwhile cabling out to the main of flee at Juneau and to the deputy at Valdez the fact that the consignment had gone to the latter port. The skins are worth at least 5000 here and sey- eral times as much in the states while still undresSed.
