NORTH DAKOTA TO

Pierre, S. D., March 17.-Business
men of this city and Fort Pierre have
Joined hands in a movement which
has for its purpose the working out
Of Combination of Missouri river
transportation and Missouri river coal
TO supply the northwest with cheap
fuel. The matter was gone into in. de :
tan at q dinner Of business men If
Fort Pierre yesterday.
s.. e. 'DeLand, who has had charge
of the river part of the work, said his
Investigations had brought out the
possibilities of the carrying business
on the Missouri with proper develop
ment.' The river at the head Of navi-i
cation would be the nearest water
port by hundreds of miles for the
grain traffic of the Canadian north
west, as well as for Montana and the
Dakotas. The system of barges be-
ing constructed ait st. Louis for river
carrying trade shows the practicable
ity of carrying large cargoes of bulky
freight on the Missouri river. Mr..
DeLand predicted that the day win

NOME IS DESERTED.
Choice Of Houses and Lots Sell
for $50 Each
Machinery Sells for Song-New Fields
Lure Miners and Thousands
Will Take Trail.

Nome, Alaska-Nome would be a
wonderful surprise, not only to the
stranger, but to the thousands Of
miners who were here in this city's
palmy days. A few years ago Nome
was wide awake and bustling camp.
Every one was talking of his good
claims and what he expected to do in
the near future in the way of taking
out fortunes, and then going back to
the States.
A stranger on landing in Nome to-
day would say "Where are all the peo-
pie and why are these hundreds of
houses empty?" Now it looks as if
great plague had struck Nome, and ALI
of the people had fled in terror, leav-
ing everything behind. Four -fifths of
all the houses and business blocks are
for rent or for sale. Good four-room
houses, furnished, can be bought,
house, lot and all, for from $50'to $3.50.
Large boilers and heavy machinery.
are for sale at scrap-iron prices.
Wreck, ruin and poverty meet the eye
of the stranger. Two thirds Of the
people here are trying to get "home-
stake" to get out on the last boats.
The cause of this is that the day of the
pick and shovel is gone in Nome. The
rich placers have been worked out, but
the low-grade ground is !, s,now coming to
the front, where large capital only can
handle it win dredges and hydraulic
machinery on large scale.
During the summer three strikes
were made. One is the Squirrel river,
a tributary to he Kobuck river, 800
miles north by sea, but from Nome
overland it is but $50 miles by winter
trail. Now there are about 20 men
prospecting there. They say they have
found coarse gold, nothing smaller
than nuggets weighing about 25 cents
each, but so far not in large deposits,
but just about rich enough to pay
wages this winter. Winter will de-
velop the country, and when spring
comes miners and residents here will
know whether it will be good camp.

Portland-Shippers along the line
of the o. R. & N. will soon have divided
ameng them the sum of $3.50, 900, an
amount saved to them through the
agency of the transportation commit
tee of the chamber of commerce.
The order of the state railroad com
mission affecting distributive rates on
the 0. r. & N. was issued April % for
enforcement May IL. The case was
tried in successive courts until it
reached Judge Wolverton of the Fede-
raj court, who decided in favor of the
state railroad commission. Judge VOL
verton ordered, too, that protested
claims be paid. Blanks to agents and
instructions to shippers were forward
ed. The O., R.. & N. then appealed
from the decision of Judge Wolverton.
Soon came an order to agents recalling
the instructions and blanks. The ship,
pers affected protested.
Chairman Van Heekeren of the
transportation committee took the
matter up with the railroad officials
through j. N. Teal, the committees
attorney. The information comes now
that the recall had been issued in the
absence of w. w. Cotton, general
counsel Of the 0. r. & NJ, and had
been brought about through mistake
in the legal department. All shippers,
consequently, who have paid excess
charges, may file reparation claims
and get their money back from the o.

condition may arise in connection with
the Injunction obtained in the Southern
Pacific rate case and the transportation
committee ofithe chamber of commerce
will again be of service.

Hulk Buried for Centuries Uncovered

Hulk Buried for Centuries Uncovered
on Canal.
Washington, D. C.-The hull of an
old vessel which has every appearance
of having been buried in the sand sew
eral centuries has been unearthed by
workmen on the Panama canal near
Nombre de Dios. A report of the dis
covery has been made to the Washing
ton office of the canal commission. The
hulk was uncovered by a steam suction
dredge working in the sand deposits.
The wreck was lying in the middle
of the sand zone 800 feet from the
beach line, and at from Is to 20 feet
below the surface of the ground. The
dredge unearthed the old hulk for the
entire length of about 60 feet, and has
now worked past it. The wood of
which the ship was built resembles
oak and is put together with wooden
pins. During the time the dredge has
been operating in the vicinity of the
wreck, its suction pipe has drawn in
several hundred pounds of iron, some
pieces weighing as much as 40 pounds.
The cutter of the dredge also en-
countered great many pieces of hard
mortar, severing, instead of breaking,
the pieces when it came in direct con-
tact with them. The mortar is practi-
cally the same as that..seen in the ruins
of buildings on the isthmus. constructed
by the early Spanish.

Three Racers Have Dropped in Lakes

or in Canadian Wilds,
st. Louis, Oct. 22.-Relief expedi-
tions to search for the pilots andsaides
of the three missing balloons, Azurea,
Dusseldorf ii and America II, which
started in the international race here,
will be started from Toronto tomorrow
if no news is received from the aero
nauts before that time. This an
nouncement was made tonight by Off
cials of the Aero club of st. Louis.
The situation in reference to the un-
reported balloons assumed most SER
ious aspect tonight. 1t is believed
here that the men have landed some
where in the wilds of Canada, where
they may be the victims of starvation
before succor can reach themmm.
The German balloon Germania, Cap
tain Hugo Won Abercron, pilot, and
August Blankertz, aide, landed at Coo
coocash, Quebec, ITO miles north of
Quebec, Wednesday morning. This is
approximately l,195 miles and may
mean that all worlds records have
been broken.
The Aero Club tonight called upon
General James Allen, chief of the
United States Signal corps at Wash
ington, d. c., to have the revenue
cutters patroling the Great Lakes look
for wreckage in Lake Huron. Steam
ship companies which have vessels ply
ing Lake Huron and Georgian Bay
have been requested to join in the
search.
The Ontario government, through its
lieutenant governor, j. M. Gibson, to-
night notified the club that it would
assist in the search for the missing
men. The Hudson Bay company also
has replied favorably to the request for
assistance sent from here today.
1t was announced tonight that rep
resentative of the Aero Club would be
sent to Toronto to organize the relief
expeditions.

BALLOoNlsTs ARE LOST.
Relief Parties HurrYing to Canadian
WiIds in Search.


New York, Oct. 24.-No word has
yet been received by officers of the
Aero Club of America as to the where
abouts of the balloon America ii,
carrying Alan r. Hawley, pilot, and
Augustus Post, aide, and anxiety for
the safety of the two aeronauts, both
of them prominent Aero club members,
is increasing.
If the men have landed safely it is
believed they are cast away so far in
the Canadian wilderness that their re-
turn to civilization will be matter of
great difficulty.
William Hawley, brother of Alan R.
Hawley, accompanied by F. Stoddard,
a friend of the aeronaut, left New
York tonight for Ottawa.
Charles Heitman, secretary of the
Aero club, said today that not even one
of the bulletins with which all contes-
tants of the st. Louis race were sup
piled and which we're to be dropped at
intervals of two hours to furnish news
of the movements of the balloon, has
been received in New York from the
America II. Several of these bulletins
dropped by each of the other contest
ants in the race we're picked up and
mailed to the Aero club.
