TWO |D|TAR0D
MEN MISSING

In communication received by
District Attorney Crossley is con-
frmed the information that the Of
ficials of the Second judicial divi-
sion are searching for two men who
left lditarod in June, 1911, and have
not been heard from since. The
men were headed for Copper Center
with third party who later re-
turned to Iditarod and is now on
the coast. Though it is considered
likely that the men had lost their
way and succumbed to the pr!va-
tions of the trail, there is some sus-
picion of murder in connection with
the case
According to the communication
John Craven, about 81 years old
and a graduate of Columbia Univer-
sity, and l.. c. Waite, about the
same age and an Elk. left over
land in company with an ex-soldier
who later returned, reporting that
he had become separated from his
companions and had succeeded in
retracing his steps.
The story sounded feasible, but
when the men who had promised to
correspond when they reached their
destination, had failed to write sus
picions were aroused and an in
vestigation was started.
The ex-soldier was located neal
Juneau, and though he gave rather
contradictory story of the events
of the trip. no arrests were made
Some of the friends of the missing
men are inclined to doubt the mur
der story, as they had little money
on their persons when they started
on their trip, which was known tc
their companion.
The coast officials are still work
ing On the case and have asked tn,
Fourth division officials to assis
lin the matter.

GOV. SULzER
ROTTEN.ECCED
IN NEW YORK

NEW YORK. Nov. .. While
speaking in the street in the Tam
many district today former Governor
William Sulzer was rotten egged
and fire crackers were exploded
about him to force HIN to discon-
time his harangue on Tammany
His meeting was we'll advertised
and there was a large turnout to
hear him. When his remarks be
came distasteful to the mob which
contained many Women, they howled
in his face and made such racket
that he was forced to cut short his
talk
The department was called but
was unable to curb the mob and
Sulzer was forced to discontinue his
speech. To protect HIM from the
wrath of the crowd several police
men escorted him away from the
district.
Little significance is attached to
the affair by local papers who attr-
butte the work to Boss Murphy, who
is still seeking to discredit the oust
ed official.

WEEKLY SESSION
OF CITY COUNCIL

The city council held another
lengthy meeting Friday evening in
the city hall, the chief matters to
come before the fathers being the
allowing of the bills of the munich
pal employees and the school board.
which were ordered paid.
1t was decided by the councilmen
that hereafter all officials be re-
quired to appear at the meetings
of the city fathers. The light ques-
ton was again brought up before
the aldermanic body but it was de-
cided that the matter be referred
with instructions to act where it
is deemed best to make improve
ments by placing some of the street
lights to better advantage. AS the
N. c. company had expressed will
ingness to donate light to illu-
inmate the Turner street bridge
if a hanger is provided by the city.
the street committee was authoriz-
ed to make such improvement.
A letter from the school board
upon the salary of the school jani
tor and the funds required by the
board was read and was the cause
of much discussion before their re-
quest for an appropriation to meet
the Indebtedness was granted.
An ordinance was then passed
prohibiting moose or other hoofed
animals from using the sidewalk
In this connection the matter of
stry dogs about the city was taken
up and it was decided that the
poundmaster be instructed to en-
force the regulations more rigidly
and that hereafter the city would
allow the catcher 81 for each dog
taken and killed.
AS the councilmen were anxious
to attend the dance which marked
the close of the fair the meeting
was then adjourned.

SUPPLIES FOR
CH|SANA CAMP

SEATTLE, Nov 2.-The steamship
Northwestern, which is to sail for
Cordova next Friday will take a
load of 500 tons of supplies which
are destined for the Chisana, l. is
SStimated that at least five tons of

supplies are being shipped in small
outfits by prospectors who arrived
here from the North, but there are
two heavy shippers on the boat who
are taking stocks of goods north
planning to open stores in the new
camp.
twenty-five people have booke d
passage on the Northwestern who

GIRLS WAGES
ARE TOO Low

OLYMPIA Wash, Nov. 2.-The
wage commission appointed by the
governor after an exhaustive inyes-
tigation into labor conditions reports
that half of the girls employed in
the mercantile houses of the state
receive less than 50 week. Many
of them were found to be unable
to adequately support themselves on
the wages given and the commission
recommends that at least $12 a
week be given the working girls
that conditions may be bettered.
1t has been found that the wages
given the girls are the same as
those prevailing ten years ago and
while sufficient at that time the sum
is entirely inadequate at this date
and not commensurate with the
high cost of living at this time.

MOB PLAYERS
WHO WIN GAME

TACOMA. Wash, Nov. 2.-Follow-
ing the soccer football game be-
tween the Aberdeen high school and
the Tacoma high school in the large
stadium here today. the crowd of
spectators swarmed across the field
and a riot followed Because the
Aberdeen team had won the game
the local rooters We're displeased at
the result of the game and the rough
work of the visitors and proceeded
to show their displeasure by mob
bing the players of the Aberdeen
team. Feminine rooters assisted in
the demonstration against the visi-
tors who were forced to flee from
the grounds TO safety.
The action of the Tacomans has
caused much adverse criticism and
may be the cause of disseminating
the games between the high school
teams of the cities about the Puget
Sound.

HEARD BY COURT

When the case OF United States
Grated meat, alleged to belong to the
Pacific Cold Storage company and

morning, Judge Fuller refused to
hear the arguments of the govern
ment attorney upon the bill of ex-
ceptions filed by the meat companies

When the meat matter case came
up in the court, District Attorney

defendants attorneys, but Judge Full
Ter stated that he would not hear the
arguments or would not require
the defendants to file answer until

pert which was furnished the dis
trict attorneys office is given the
defendants. This the district at
torney refused to do, as he stated
it was given for his own guidance
and was not public record and
would not be given the defendants
unless so instructed by the attorney
general.
He added, however, that he would
furnish a copy of the report if the
defendants would first enter stipu
lation that they would be bound tC
l'eport, but as the defendants attor
neys refused to do this the matter
was put over until instructions are
received from the attorney-general.

amalgam has not been retor;ed as

mine, expects that the work for the
month OF October will show a pro
fit. Manager Drury VIII come te

milled is greater the cleanup is not
expected to equal that of last month
as the rock Vas not as high grade
as that milled in September. How
ever, it has been aseertained that
the cleanup ~ill be large enough
to show profit for the months

sign and the dir ctors are eIated oy-
er the future outlook.
The cleanup in September was the
first to show a profit and if the pre-
sent ore holds out the mine will

STREET CARS

INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 2.-Because
the street car companies refused
to yield to the demands of its EN-.
ployes who went out on strike mobq
of women stormed the street ears
today and dragged off the motormen
and pummelled them before as
sistance could arrive. Scores Of
riots have taken place and because
OF the public resentment to the
action of the company street car
traffic is completely tied up.
Partly through lack of patronage
and through inability to obtain mo-
tormen who are unafraid to work.
the street cars are now n tn barns.
Five hundred more strikebreakers
arrivd today but there is little i'm.
proyement in the situation.
large mob of sympathizers at
tackled the car barns today and after
ramming the doors partially wrecked
the street ears and smashed all of
the windows. They also stormed
the buildings where the strikebreak-
ers are housed

TELEGRAPH LINE
IS INTERRUPT TED

Shortly before noon Saturday the
telegraph line between Fairbanks and
Valdez went down since which time
all business has been held subject
to delay, and what business has
been urgent has been transacted via
Eagle and the Canadian line. From
tests made it is learned that the
wires were put out of commission
in the vicinity of Teikhel, and from
further advices received it was evi-
dently caused by immense trees fall
ing across the line during the storm
which has been prevalent in the
coast region for the last two days.
The district. in the vicinity of
Teikhel is the worst in Alaska, and
has been the most troublesome to
the telegraph line. At that point
the line crosses high mountains
with steep precipices, heavily tim
bered with giant trees, which during
the fierce storms are at the mercy
of the wind and play havoc with
the wires. From the long delay in
repairing the break it is evident that
the linemen are having some trou-
BILE, but it is expected that commu-
nication will be resumed at any
time.
The reports received for this issue
came via Ashcroft and Egbert.

the widest, noisiest frolic until they
all were tired out.

brate Lady Randolph Churchilrs di-
vorce, as she was there to receive
