The drowning Of two young
people and the narrow escape of
three others in the local waters at
the st Paul railroad bridge Sun
day afternoon. caused consider
able excitement with pitiablc1
background.
The party, composed of the
Misses Louisa Lee, Lucinda King,
Clara Hartwig and Genevieve
Walters. with Mr.. Frank Myers,
etarted out from the Minocqua
Hotel, where the girls were en-
ployed and the gentleman made
his home, to take snapshots on
the road to the dam. As they
neared the railroad bridge an ex-
lEtra train in charge of Conductor
Flannigan and Engineer Reinhold
arrived from the east with a long
train Of cars. After the train had
| gotten across the bridge and
stopped, the quintette started
across the bridge, and when in
the middle Of the structure. the
train was noticed moving back
ward. The girls became excited
and nervous, while Mr.. Myers
endeayored TO save them as best
he could. MISS Haftwig. soonest
realizing her peril. started on the
run for the opposite end of the
bridge. reaching it in safety, after
falling down several times.
Miss King decided to crawl
over the side Of the bridge and
grasp one of the large beams,
which she. did, being rescued sew
eral minutes later from her peril
Gus position of hanging over the
water
The other three Misses Lee
and Walters and Mr., Myersre-
NAMED on the bridge. Mr.. Myers,
according TO Miss Lee, endeav-
ore5 to save her and Miss Wall
ters, and all were hit BY the ca
boose. and knocked into the lake
the trio going into the water at
the same time.
When Miss Lee came to the
surface of the water she was near
the piling. Grasping this. she
helped herself until pulled out Of
the water by friends.
Miss Walt ers came to the sur
face Of the water once and yelled.
For goodness sake, help me
Louisa As it was, all Mss Lee
could do was to help herself.
Mr.Meyers never came to the
surface after falling into the water.
When the train backed up
Brakeman Scott stood on the rear
of the caboose, and after yelling
at the quintette. he tried to stop
the train by turning off the air
from the outside. Failing in this,
he went inside the caboose to do
so. but it was too late.
Soon great many people APP
peared on the scene, and men
in boats with drag-hooks tried in
vain to help the two in the water.
After forty minutes search. the
body of Miss Walters was recov-
cred Drs. HawIey, Duringer. and
Pink worked over her tor some
time, but finally pronounced that
life was extinct. About twenty
minutes later the remains of

SPOKANE, Nov. occurring the

SPOKANE, Nov. Occurring the
sessions of the American Mining Con-
gress, attended by a great many
Alaskans, considerable thought and
discussion have been given to the
questions affecting Alaska. The coal
question has been thoroughly thrash-
ed out, in the effort to devise methods
that would result in the early OPEN
ing up OF the rich deposits in the
Northern field. Action was finally
taken, endorsing law which would
remove the determination of the vail
dity Of the Alaska coal claims from
the hands of the Secretary of the
Interior department and place the
questions before federal courts for
decision.
A resolution was also adopted fav-
oring the passage of law by Con-
gress which would permit the Alas
ka coal claimants, who filed on coal
lands prior to withdrawal order of
President Roosevelt in 1906. to bring
an action against the United States
in the efderal courts of Alaska, with
the right to appeal to the United
States Supreme Ocurt, in order to-
establish the validity of their claims.
While leasing bill and other
methods of opening up the Alaska
coal fields were discussed, the general
belief prevailed that the quickest
action would result if some of the one
thousand claimants could secure
patent to their lands, under the eX-
listing laws. There was not much
confidence expressed in the Interior
department to grant any patents, for
under certain rulings that have been
made this will almost be impossible.
But it is maintaised that the de-
pdTllucltdi rulings are uot Ill stCCofu
with the law or it's intent. And for
that reason it is believed that the
Federal courts, or the United States
Supreme court, will be more likely
to give justice to those claimants who
have complied with the law, SO far
as it was possible for ordinary man to
interpret it. And if numer of these
claimants secure patent they will at
once be able to open up mines and
secure railroad construction to bring
the fuel to tide water. In the mean
time Congress could wrestle with the
question as to what to do with claims
in which the government retains title
or expected to regain it.

General agent Tracy has received
word from Seattle office that here
after all sailings of passenger steam
ers for Southwestern Alaska will both
go and come via the inside passage.
maintained during the summer has
been made because of the petitions
geneally made by the merchants of
ketchikan and Juneau. They had
become so accustomed to both the
freight and passenger service of the
Mariposa and the Alameda, that when
these steamers were recently routed
via the outside passage they realized
that they could not get along without
the visitation. SO pressure was
brought to bear upon President Bax-
ter and Traffic Manager Jones and
they determined to extend the ac-
commodations asked for. The re-
turn trip of the Northwestern will be
via Juneau. She will stop at Katalla
and take on the party of about thirty
government men who have been
working at the Boring river coal
fields. These men sacked several
hundred tons of COAL which will be
brought out and taken below for
testing purposes.

He attributes it to the fact that the

ly in favor of the development Of

land. he says, believe now that rail-
road construction and the opening of
the coal fields will soon begin.
