HOW RAILROADS HELP
 TO DEVELOP ALASKA

The WhitchOrsc Star says : During the past week the Star office received a small shipment CT general newspaper supplies from Seattle, the freight from
 that place to Skagway, a distance of 1000 miles, being $8.O3. From Skagway to Whitehorse, a dis tance of ii0 miles, the freight charges were $4O.5O. And some people imagine this great family journal should sell at St per year, the same as the Manitoba Straw stack, the Georgia Weekly Pump kinvine, the Iowa Weekly Prune Advocate or the Laying Hen. The freight charge from Skagway to Whitehorse on the little shipment referred to was just thirty five cents more than five times as much as from Seattle to Skag- way. Please pass the paregoric

WHY THE MINTS ARE
 BEING ABOLISHED

Under the caption, "The Smclt- CT Trust is Now Ready to Grab the Business of the United Statcs Mint," the San Francisco Even ing Bulletin has printed a special article by Harold French, until recently chemist at the San Fran cisco mint, who rctireS on a fur tough, charging that "the Taft administration is preparing to turn over it's bullion refining bus mess to the Guggenheim smelter trust under the pretense of econ- omy," just as Secretary Mac Neagh already has discontinued the coinage of gold at the behest of Morgan-Aldrich banking in- tcrests.
 French declares that he left his job to expose the plot to the pub lie, believing it to be his duty. He charges, in brief, that the San Francisco mint is to be closed, as the Philadelphia and Denver hints have been closed, so that the smelling trust may get the refining of Si75,OOO,OOO annual ly, now done by the government minis. This, French charges, is to be done under the pretcnse of economy, but he asserts that it is really a gigantic graft scheme.
 To accomplish the scheme. French charges, Aldrich placed his pr0tcgc, A. Piatt Andrews. in charge of mint affairs and that later Secretary MacVcagh made him first assistant of the treas urN. He asserts that Andrews ''bnrr0wcd" Chief Chemist Min d"lrH, of the smcltcr trust, 10 re- port on mint methods and that the change of the Taft policy was made on the strength of his re- port.

DIR. COOKS RECONSTRUCTED STORY.

My attainment of the Pole. Being the
Record Of the Expedition that first Reached

Dr. Frederick A. Cook. fNew York; The

with the original vague accounts which ap-
peared in the Press after Or. Cooks return
it is possible to take a different view from
his as to the value of the evidence which he
brings forward in this volume of his having
attained the North Pole. 1t is mainly an
hysterical rhapsody from beginning to end
The mere facts of the expedition could have
been compressed into one-fouqth of the
space. But DR.. Cook is not content with
telling us a simple story. He is continually
reminding himself of the terrible trials he
has to undergo; of the impressions produced
upon his mind by the icy wastes through
which he trudges, and the glorious colours
of ice and sky; of the difficulties he had in
persuading his two Eskimo to perseyere IN
til they reached the stbig nail" and so on,
until the story induces a l. sense of unrenlity
and monotony. 1t is filled with the most
astounding accusations against Peary, with
which we must allow Admiral Penny to deal
should he think fit. It is not our business
to enter into any defence Of Peary,, and with
regard to Dr.. Cook (who may honestly be-
lieve he reached the l'hol cal CENTER, the
only verdict that we can come to-, en- the
basis of this revised narrative and the So
cflled observations which it contains, is that

ATTITUDE OF GREAT BRITAIN AND
JAPAN.
Shnnghai, Dec. %,

Shanghai, Dec. %.
No reply has yet been received from Yuan
Shit- kai, and there is no change in the stun
ton but evidence is accumulating showing
that the unreasonable fear that japan and
Great Britain are pledged to take concerted
measures to prevent the establishment of u
Republican Government is blocking the way
to Yuan Shih-kai's freedom of action. YualF
Shih kai declares that be has been informed
by Mr.. Ijuin, the Japanese Minister to
China, that Japan will in no circumstances
recognize a Republic in China also that.
Wang Tahsieh, the Chinese Minister in Tok-
70, has telegraphed to him that Japan is
prepared to despatch two divisions Of troops,
to WuchAng should China decide upon a Re-
publican Government. Questioned by Tang
Shaggy, q japanese Councillor of Embassy
who is hereion special duty, denies the truth
OF both stories.
Personally Yuan Shih-kai desires peace,
personally he is willing to abide by the de-
cision of q National Convention, but he fears,
if the decision should be for a Republic, as
there is every indication, subsequent COM
plications with Great Britain and japan.
The Shanghai settlement presents an ex-
~traOrdinary spectacle. Immense numbers Of
Chinese refugees, ex-Viceroys, Governors.
and high officials have sought the protection
OF Shanghai as the safest place in China. Ev-
en- the city magistrate who last year almost
jndicjally murdered q Chinese merchant who.
sought protection in the foreign settlement,
was Que of the first to claim protection for
himself. A large additional cost has BEEN
thrown on the community by the sudden call
to save the lives of off cials and to protect
Chinese Government property. The settles,
meDt is much overcrowded, and the area is.
inadequate; therefore it is hoped that one
result of the revolution will be a friendly
readiustment of the boundary to include the
extension which has been claimed for many
years. Ibid.

THE FUTURE OF CHINA.
FOREIGN INTERVENTION FEARED.
Shanghai, Dec. %.

Shanghai, Dec. %.
During the past ten days [ have been Wis
ting Hankau, Marking, and Shanghai with a
view to asceltaining the feeling in the Yang
tsze regarding the attitude Of Peking. No
surprise is felt here nor among his friends
that Tang Shao-yi should have so early de-
clared Republican sympathies. Ardently de-
string to prevent further bloodshed, and
convinced that The majority of the people will
accept no compromise involving the reten-
ton of a puppet Emperor of q despised and
distrusted dynasty, he has taken the only
possible course and given his adhesion to q
Republic.
Yuan Shih-kai still adheros to the Mon
archical idea, but, in spite Of kilograms from
Picking, it is confidently expected here that
he will WELD to the inevitable and will be-
come the first President of a Federal Repub-
lie with ample powers. While there is con-
siderable opposition to him personally there
is a general feeling that, as he commands
most respect among foreigners, his accept
ance of office would obtain for the Republic
the earliest recognition OF foreign Powers.
The proposed steps leading to this require,
first, the issue of an imperial Edict express
ing the Thrones Willingness to abide by the
decision of a National Convention to assem-
hle at Shanghai, consisting of representa-
tives of every province, empowered to de-
eide on the form of Government to be adopt
ed. There is reason to believe that Huang-
hsing, the Republican generalissimo, is will
ing to accept such q procedure. There is no
possible doubt what the decision would be.
The present issue is complicated by the
openly expressed fears of Yuan Shih-kai that
England and Japan, acting in unison, are de-
termined to maintain a Monarchical Govern
ment in China, if necessary, by force. Alb
surd though the story is, it is believed by
Yuan Shih-kai and is having a baneful effect
that the British Foreign Office might wisely
dispel.

NIGHT IN PRISON CHANGES GOV

She State prison mingling with The prisoners
with a view of finding those most worthy of
Christmas pardon and to investigate the
cause of alleged mutiny among the inmates.
He found no evidences Of characterization.

shat there shall be such an institution for

older convicts will be invited to attend.
The Governor talked with scores of con-

1t is believed here that, if Yuan Shih kai

of the edict above referred to, the Throne
will abdicate, there will be no more fighting
and the Manchu soldiery will be peacefully

steamed into the harbJr with her flag
at half mast Tuesday, bearing bodies
of 100 victims of the Titanic disas-
ter. With the coming of the death
ship the suspense which has grip
ped the Borrowing relatives and
friends of the dead for a week was
lifted.
The grewsome burden of the Mac
kay Bennett was piled on her deck
and in her hold.
The Mackay- Bennett brought 100
bodies into port. Capt. Lardner said
that IN all 3O6 bodies had been pick
ed up, but 116 had to be reconsigned
to the deep because they were be-
yond recognition. They were wrap
ped in canvas shrouds. weighted and
cast over the ships rail.
Capt. Lardner told White Star
officials that everybody picked up
wore life preserver. Many of them
we're floating on pieces of wreckage
from the wrecked liner.
There was no doubt Of the identi-
fication Of Col. Astor's body. In
the pockets $500 cash and had been
found. and he wore belt. with a
gold buckle. The body identified as
that of Mr.. Widener was buried at

bodies of the dead of the Titanic's
crew had not been embalmed or
placed in collins. but lay stretched
upon the deck. covered with a big
piece of tarred canvas to keep off
the rain and sun.
1t was a horrible and heart sick
enine sight. As the sailors drew
back the tarpaulin to remove the
dead. the remains were exposed to
the view of those on the deck.
The faces of the dead were set in
expression of horror and extreme
fear. and the legs and arms were
bent and contorted. showing how
they fought for life in the icy water.
Some of them had disrobed them
selves. the better to swim. Others
had died IN the water trying to pull
off their clothing. Some of them
wore one arm through coat sleeve:
others were entirely naked save for
a shoe on undergarment.
Suckers lay side bv side with the
remains of men reared in luxury.
When the bodies were uncovered
they were rolled in small pieces of
canvas placed on stretchers and
borne away.
