PRISONERS SEE
 SUITS. BURNED
Confinement Will Wear Striped Suits in Future.

San Quentin, Cal. Nov. S.-Two thousand convicts watched with inter- est yesterday when the prison offi- cials burned the striped suits which have been their marks of degreda- tion. A huge bonfire was started in the prison yards and the clothing was piled on the flames amidst the cheers of the convicts.
 Under new regulations only refrac- tory prisoners or those who are sen fenced to solitary confinement will wear striped clothing. The prison of ficials have learned that the con- victs are less difficult to handle and their self-respect increased when they are permitted to wear citizens cloth es. The experiment has been thor oughly tested and has received the approval of the government

TERMINALS ID
 COST MILLIONS
Canal Will be, Guarded by Break waters Against Ocean Storms

Washington, Nov. 8.-It is estimat- ed by the engineers in charge of con: struction of the terminals of the Pan- anna canal that the cost of the term inals on the Atlantic and Pacific coasts will amount approximately to $37, 100000. The total amount of money appropriated for the canal, including that or the terminals, is s375, 100000.
 The work of constructing the term inals is being pushed with the same vigor which has caused the compile ftion of the canal before the date set by the engineers. The terminals will include the construction of immense breakwaters which will extend far out into the bays, protecting the entran- ces from storms sweeping in from the ocean. Miles of docks and ware houses with enormous capacities will also be built as we'll as customs houses at both ends of the canal An office building, which will be used exclusively for offices for the execu- tives of the canal will be constructed and the material is beginning to ar rive.
 The Panama Canal, now almost completed, has cost the United States so far $314,370,977, according to the report just issued by the 18th milan Canal Commission. The total cost of the canal when the work is completed will be within the original estimate of s375,OU0,000.
 The greatest cost has been, of course, in the department of con- struction and engineering, where $185.316,095 has been spent since

ANCIENT MEAT
 0N THE MARKET
Six Years in Storage.

Portland, Ore, Nov. 8.--Meat in- spectors seized and destroyed six tons of meat ana fish which had been kept in cold storage for six years and was unfit for human food. Several complaints have been made to the health authorities that meat which was rotten was being offered for sale by butchers and all investigation was made of all the packing houses.
 The packers declare the meat is wholesome despite it's age, contend ing that when properly kept in cold storage meat does no tsuffer con- tamination. The health authorities have been informed that the packers have recently sold out shipment of the ancient meat and are investigat- ing the shops to which it is believed to have been consigned. They claim that the meat was treated with acid which rendered it unfit for human consumption.

ARCTIC EXPLORER
 MAY BE LOST
Dillon Wallace, Expected to Return by October 1, Not Heard From
 in Labrador Wilds.

New York, Nov. 8.--Dillon Wal lace, who left New York in July for three months of exploration in in- terior Labrador, was expected to leave its wilds by October 1, and as no word has come from him since early September lis friends here are deeply concerned. Unless word of some sort comes soon it is expect ed that g. relief expedition will be organized
 Wallace not only wished to- make some scientific studies on this his third trip into Labrador, but had al so the great desire to mark with a bronze tablet the lock beneath which his friend and fellow-explorer, Leon idas Hubbard, died of exhaustion ten years ago. His companions, Judge William Malone, of Connecticut, and George Blake, were to go only part way, and they returned to civilization nearly two months ago.
 From them it was learned that the sixty-pound memorial tablet had been lost when the canoes capsized in swirling rapids that came close to cutting off the expedition then and there But they pushed on to the rock near Last Camp, and there carved the inscription with a ham mer and cold chisel and in the grooves painted white lead with a brush fashioned out of hair cut from Blake's head. Juage Malone had in his kit small American flag to re. place the one lost in the rapids, and to replace the banner of Hubbard's s Alma Mater, Michigan, bit of white oilcloth was lettered and draped on the rock

MAR|P0SA |S COMING NORTH
Sailed From Seattle Last Night With Few Passengers for Valdez and
 Westward Points.

Seattle, Nov B. The steamer Mar iposa sailed for Alaska last night with many passengers for Southeastern Alaska ports and few for the west ward. The passengers for Valdez are: Mrs. A. G. Smith, F. Thayer. J. Letterman and wife, James Anderson, o. H. Tucker and one steerage. MT. and Mrs. Middlecamp, of Ellamar. are also passengers en route home:
 Alaskans who are now in the city predict heavy traffic after the holi- days to the north will result from the new strikes in the interior. They believe that the camps will make good and that big stampede will result from the states. Many are already leaving for the Shushanna, but they are men who have been in the camp and have been outside to financ op- erations and secure machinery with which to develop their ground.

CONGRESS WONT
 PROBE STRIKE
Western Representatives Try to Have Conditions in Colorado Mining
 Camps Subject of Probe.

Washington, Nov. 8.-An attempt was made by several western repre- sentatives to secure congressional probe of the conditions which led to the strike in the mining districts in Colorado. The effort failed through the opposition of eastern members, who are opposed to the House talk ing up any new business during the present session.
 The mover of the resolution declar- ed that conditions in the mining dis America. He stated that no strike had ever been warranted if conditions now prevailing in the western state did not justify the men in their ac- tions. They had armed themselves in self-defense against the guards, but had willingly surrendered their guns when the troops arrived and were prepared to maintain order.
 The mine operators had attempted to force the striking miners out of the country by compelling them to vacate the houses they occupied while in their employ. The stores which were supplying the strikers with nee essaries were being boycotted by the citizens of the towns under pressure brought to bear by the mine own CTS. Thousands of families were homeless and living in tents. They were not foreigners but American cit izens who were fast growing des- perate under the intolerable condi- tions unedr which they were forced to labor.

INCREASE RATES
 NEXT MARCH
Eastern Railroads Are Impatient at the Delay, as They Claim They
 Are Losing Money.

Washington, Nov. S.-The Inter- state Commerce Commission has granted the executives of the east ern railroads the right to increase their freight rates five per cent. The new rates will go into effect next March. The executives of the com panies are unwilling to await several months, as they want the increase to go into effect immediately.
 When the companies first applied for the right to increase their rates they asked for an increase of ten per cent on the grounds that the cost of operation and maintenance had near ly doubled since the present rates went into effect. They were denied the increase. The case was reopened again last spring and has been before the commission ever since. After in vestigation of the earnings of the roads and the cost of operation the Interstate Commerce Commission de. cided that the railroads were warrant ed in their demands.
 It is stated that the increase of the rates will cause the stocks of the roads to be eagerly sought by Wall street
