EXCESSIVE SPEED CAUSED
 WRECK OF THE TITANIC

London, July Sl-The British subcommittee which has charge Of the investigation of the Titanic disaster. made the report yesterday that the calamity was caused by excessive speed and the absence of adequate life boats.
 The inference is given that the desire to make a record caused the officers to neglect taking proper care for the safety of the passen- gers and the ship. A recommenda- ton was made a part of the report that proper safeguards should be demanded, which includes the safe ty of the passengers as first con- sideratiOn.

Denver. Aug. f--DenyeF Is again suffering from cioud-burst and the lowlands are again under water. For the second time within the past two weeks this city has been battered by the elements with dis astrous results.
 Last night storm of fearful violence struck the city, unroofing small buildings, destroying plate glass and flooding the basements The water came down In torrents, soon filling the sewers to over flowing. Water poured into base ments and covered the first floors of many buildings.

The com mercial compnny owns large. stores along the river, at Fairbanks and all other points along the river where there are sufficient people to justify it. They also have, and heretofore always have had large stores at Dawson. They carry their own freight upon their own boats. In this way they are able to buy large quantities of goods, to transport them into the country up- on their own steamers, sell the goods out of their own stores and by this system they have been able to practically prevent any transportation or mercantile com pauy from securing an equal oppor- tunity to do business in that region. l judge they do three-fourths of all the freight carrying and mer- cantile business in that region.
 The White Pass route begins at Skagway and runs across the panhandle of Alaska into British Columbia. It is about twenty-siS miles in length in Alaska. The to- tal length of the road is about a hundred and len miles from Skag- way to whitehorse. At White horse the White Pass people have first class river boats, British bot tom. and all the freight and passen- gers for the Dawson country and

 Delegate wiekersham has filed with Hon. J. F. Curtis, assistant secretary of the treasury, com plete report of the conditions along the Yukon river, and pointed out the necessity Of immediate action. Extracts from his letter follow:
 The application to the Depart ment now is to establish a sub port at Fairbanks so that the Brit ish boats may come on down the river from Dawson and up the Ia mana and deliver freight at Fair banks in competition with the North ern Navigation Company, which comes up the river with its freight from St Michael.
 The people of the Territory are desirous of securing competition in the carrying of freight into the ln- terior of Alaska. Heretofore there has been and for some years the Northern Navigation Company has had practically a monopoly or all the carrying trade to Fairbanks and other interior points. The Northern Navigation Company is a transportation company. The North ern Commercial Company Is com

OFFICIALS GATHERING INSIDE
Governor Clark. Collector Willis and Inspector Tawney May Recommend Sub-Port
 at Fairbanks

during all the summer all Of the freight and passengers into the in- terior Of Alaska are compelled either to take the White Pass route or the St. Michael route from the mouth of the Yukon river up stream.
 Unfortunately for the people of Alaska the White Pass route is arbitrarily stopped at Dawson. For tunateIy for the people at Dawson the Northern Navigation Company is permitted by the Yukon Terri tory to continue their voyage from St. Michael eastward up the Yukon river through Alaska into the Yu- kon Territory to the sub-port of Dawson. That is exactly what the White Pass Company ought to be allowed to do going down stream. We ought 10 be allowed to have a support at Fairbanks so that the British Yukon steamers carry ing our freight and passengers from Skagway may come on down the Yukon and up the Panama to Fair banks. most earnestly recom- mend that sub-port with that ob- ject in view be immediately estab- Ifaboa ,t Esfrhaukq

 Customs Collector J. R. Willis is on his way to Fairbanks and MT. Tawuey.. inspector Of customs of- fees. is headed that way, and with the following ia of Governor Clark, it looks as though some action is being taken toward the opening of the sub-port at Fairbanks.
 A cablegram from Delegate Wick ersham printed a few days ago in- formed the Alaskan readers that he had recommended the opening of the port, and that to secure it's passage the recommendations Of Governor Clark and Mir. Willis were needed. We have seen no state ment from either of these gentle men as to whether they favor it or not. hut it is cretain that some thing must be done to break up the monopoly now being held by the navigation companies Of the inter- for. ii that part Of the territory is ever to be developed.

rights holding the lever are three feet long and notched on the front. The brace which rests in the notches OF the base sill is made long enough to suit d low down wagon when resting in the front notch. The lever is four and one-half feet long. The illustra- tion shows plainly how the wagon is held when once lifted. The entire de vice is held together by five bolts.
 In Fig. by 6 inch plank does for the sill. and the uprights may be inch boards five inches wide at the bottom, tapering to three inches at the top. The lever is adjusted to the height of the wagon by the holes in the uprights A short chain fastened to the sill is hooked to the staple or eye bolt in the lever to hold it when desired.
 Fig. is about the same. but the at tachment for holding the lever at any point desired is an improvement on the chain. The blacksmith can make this from wagon tire. An inch strip of the same material is fastened across the uprights for the bar to catch on.
 Fig. is very simple. The upright pieces are 115 by inches. three feet long, and the sill is ? by 4 resting on zits narrow edge. The lever is notched on top. and heavy wire looped over it holds it in position.
 The very convenient jack in Fig. , is. with the exception of the lever and the catch cleat, made of 2 by scantling. When mortised together as shown it makes a very strong jack. The lever may be one and one-half inch stuff. about four inches wide at the large end. and the cleat to hold it is of the same material.
 Another way of making this last jack is shown in Fig. G. The upright scant ling, instead of the lever, is Dotched. and a quarter inch wire is used to en- gage in the notches and hold the lever in the proper position. The wire loop is kept from slipping where it crosses the lever by means of a staple driven over it into the lever.-Farm and Fire side.

 q For comb honey hive little more shallow in the brood nest than the regular body is prefera ble. as it forces the honey up into sections just where it is wanted
 There are some SOO,000 beekeepers in the United States. More than 100000 are farmers who keep bees as d side line. obtaining honey for home use and a small trade.
 There is no better time than the lat ter part of September for making tLae colonies strong in tees and stores for their long winters sleep. and in this re- spect "a stitch in time is worth nine. While there win be little brood reared the last of this month. yet the weaker colonies may be strengthened by giving them frames of sealed brood and bees from the stronger ones, and this can be safely done.
