guarded by policemen, and somewhere
between Bellingham and the British
Columbia line are $50 natives OF In

Great Northern railway, bound for Ca
madam territory and the protection OF
the British flag. The long expected
has occurred. and drive out the Hin
dus' was heard throughout the city and
along the water front Wednesday
night and early Thursday morning.
The police were helpless All au'
thority was paralyzed and for hve
hours a mob of half thousand white
men raided the mills where the blacks
working, battered down doors of lodg'
ing houses sheltering the foreigners,
and dragging the invaders from their
beds and with beating started them
for the city limits with orders to keep
on going.
All that the police could do was
here and there save a native from the
violence of the mob. Several were
pulled from the water, where they had
been chased: others were found naked
covering beneath the docks on the
tide flats, others bruised and bleeding
and were picked up and sent to the
hospital.
The city is quiet now, but there is
a strong undercurrent OF opinion which
apparently approves the mobs action,
and it may be found impossible to pro-
secute the leaders.
Racial feeling has played but a
small part in the affair. Every day
whites are being replaced in the mills
by blacks. The invaders have be-
come bold and insolent, many in
stances of women being pushed into
the gutter, insulted on street cars,
etc, being reported, and general I'M
easiness being given as reasons for the
outbreak.
Jobs have been offered the Hindus
again by the mill men and protection
guaranteed, but the Hindus have been
so thoroughly frightened that they are
drawing their pay under police protec-
tion and are disposed to leave for Van
couyer.

EXPLORERS REPORTED LOST
IN LAND OF SNOW AND ICE
Three Members of the Anslo-Amerloan
Arctic Expedition Left the Ship In
February and Have Never Re-
turned.

Athabasca Landing, Canada.-News
of the probable loss of the schooner
Duchess of Bedford, the ship belonging
TO the Anglo-American Arctic expedl-
ton which had hopes to find new
continent north of the Mackenzie river,
was brought here by Alfred Harrison,
who has been beyond the Arctic cir
Gle for two years and who came mere
on the steamer Midnight Sun. MT.
Harrison says Ernest Stefansson OF
Harvard university, after whom the
expedition has been called, himself
brought the news of the loss OF their
boat to Herschel island. He also
brought the news of the disappearance
of three members of the party and ex-
pressed the fear that they had met
death in the frozen north.
The missing men are Captain MIX
kelson a Dane, Ernest Lefiiingwell OF
Chicago and j. Marks. They left the
ship in February, with sixty days
provisions, for the supposed land OF
the north, and had been gone seventy
days and no news had been received
from them.
One of their teams of dogs had re-
turned and it is feared the party Will
never be heard from again. The
schooner Duchess of Bedford, Stefans-
son thought, had probably sunk. The
ship had filled with water probably
from the ice strain, but they had been
able to remove everything of value to
the main shore.

for comfortable keeping.
