Dec. 2-The Mining Congress. or rather some of it's members. have gotten in bad with the ministers and the good people Of this city. with the result that sermons were preached yesterday agalnst the actions held outside the city limits Friday night, at which time capers were cut up which are absolutely unprintable.
 Some Of the Spokane people who arc spOrtively inclined, arranged a sort og smoker or publication meet ing for the entertainment of the mining men who were delegates to the congress. They called it the "digEius," and knowing that it was Co be somewhat free-for-an, they pulled it Cft outside the limits Of tho city. away from police interter- eucc. out where they could be wild Iv uurestraiued-and they were cer- taiuIy uurostraiUed, it the charges made bv the ministers Of the city are true.
 They do say that prize fights were held and that liquors were consumed until revelry ran higher than was ever before known in any city outside of Sodom and Comor- rah The preachers say, and they back up their assertions with eyi- dence. that dance hall scenes were enacted iu which women of the un- derworId took shameful parts; that some Of these women were dressed up in men.s clothes and sold at auction to the highest bidder, the man paying the highest price dis robing the woman he had purchased and presenting her in nude vaude- vile stunts for the entertainment of tho audience.

The lateness in securing the re turns from the outlying camps Of the Second division has aroused some comment regarding the organ izatiou Of the new legislature. Com menting on 1t, Governor Clark, who is in Juneau, has made public the statement that notwithstanding tech uicalities of the law which cannot be complied with, the canvass would take place when the returns were in, but there is no certainty that the returns will be in before the legislature meets.
 In the opinion Of the governor the legislature cannot be legally organized unless certificates are in the possession of the members prior to the meeting of the body, and since the returns cannot leave Nome until after the lst of January, and it will require probably sixty days and perhaps even longer to get them Co Juneau, the question of the issuance before the opening Of the session becomes a matter of much doubt All the members of the board, however, which consists of Territorial Secretary Distiu, Col leCtor Willis and Governor Clark,
