 FOR THE STATES

Among the Northwestern's S passengers tonight is D. G. New ell, one of the old timers of this region, who is going south, for good. Mir. Newell came down from Wrangell twelve years or more ago, and has since been closely identi- fled with the growth and pros perity of Ketchikan. He early invested in real estate here, and has been a property hold CT ever since. He has always had great faith in the mining industry of this neighborhood, being an owner of several prom islng prospects. He will espec- ially be missed hy his brethern and sisters of the local Red Men and Pocahontas lodges, of which he is a faithful member Mir. Newell goes down to the state of Washington for a while before returning to his old home in the east.

IN FROM HYDABERC

The launch Alphonso 13 was i'll from Hydaberg this morning with Mason Frank the manager of the Hydaberg Trading conn pany on board. MT. Frank in- forms the Miner Man that the new town on the West Coast Is growing steadily, there being over i50 people now residing there. The three houses de- stroyed by the high wind of January 2 and 3 have been re- built. The sawmill is running steadily turning out in the neighborhood of ten thousand feet of lumber every day. The Hydaberg Trading company's business has increased to such an extent that a larger building is necessary, which will be e. rected at once, and it is for the shingles for this building and the new schoolhouse that te Alphonso made the trip. In addition to these, a new wharf will be built at once, doing aw- ay with landing freight and passengers on the float.

In the hope that something can be done for him, friends of Jack McGregor persuaded him to go south to Victoria on the May last night to see if he can secure a new lease of life. He is in a bad way at present, and local doctors are of the opinion that there is little hope of re- covery.

 AN ALASKAN.

Sophia, Feb. At is officially announced from the war office here that the bombardment Of Adrianople began exactly enc hoilr after the expiration oI the arnlistice. The Bulgarian troops there are well housed and the commissary is excellent Immense quantities Of amuni- ton have been concentrated far tle heavy guns bombarding the city, and the orders are to lma,ntain a steady Lombard nant until the place surce1 .e"- cd. It is known that the plight of the defenders is bad, as the food is very short, and the SUD- ply of water is inadequate.
 Ganstantinople, Feb. 1.-The Bulgarian forces facing Tchat- l liza opened fire promptly at seven last night, and cannon ade was maintained all night. Several insignificant skirmishes took place at day break this morning, as the enemy began pushing their troops forward. Eighteen batteries of heavy Creuset guns have been mount led on the heights above Tchat- ligha by the Turks, which re- piled at long range to the fire of the Bulgars lighter pieces. The firing became heavier as the mists of the early morning rolled away, swelling to one con tinuous roar plainly audible from every quarter of this city. Consternation is general here, as the general impression was that the Turkish government would submit at the last mo. ment rather than again take up the losing end of the fight. Thousands of fresh troops from Asia Minor are now in position confronting the Bulgars, most of them being we'll armed and fed. The dissension exist ing in the ranks, the officers hope will be removed by the re sumption of hostilities by the Bulgarians. but the fact that the Turkish troops do not have their hearts in the fight, and those in a position to know ex- pect repitition of the former engagements, with the TT
 continually falling back before the hardy Bulgars.

"Well, it was a fine dance, the best this year." is the gen. eral verdict of the dancers of the town regarding the A. B. ball of last night. If a lively crowd, a good floor and first class music constitute a fine dance, it was certainly all that. Everbody in town knows that when the A.

Per haps the item most conducive to the enjoyment of the even- ing, was the excellent music rendered by Jimmy" Dutton.

ANCIENT HISTORY
Editor Miner::

of w. G. Morris, special agent in Alaska for the Treasury De- partment, published by the government some thirty five or six years ago, makes very Ill teresting reading to those of us who live within sight of An nette island, and realize how kind the United States govern ment can be to people who are in no wise trying to build up the country, as compared with its treatment of those who have striven to make this Alaska of ours what she should be, by obeying her laws and working with the common welfare in mind at all times.
 Mir. Morris was sent north to investigate conditions from a dual standpoint-that of the matter of smuggling then car ried on in fragrant and open violation of the law, and of the sale by and among the natives of the ingredients-mostly mo- Ilasses-from which their 'hoocherino'' or native whis- key was made.
 The following extracts are word for word as they appeared lin the government reports:
 Customs House, Tongass, Alaska May aS, 1876.
 Sir:--I have just been in- lformed that Mir. Duncan, of lMetla Catlah, B. O., is now fitt- ling out four large canoes with goods consisting of blankets, silk goods, ammunition. guns, and molasses, (the latter is used among the Indians for making Hootch or native whis- Ikey) to the amount of five or six thousand dollars and in tends in few days 10 send the Icanoes with Indians of that place to the Chilcat country, to trade those goods.
 I understand that Mir. Dun can makes 6 business of send ling goods to Alaska. He has been smuggling goods into IChilcat and othec places i'll the territory for great number of wears. Had I any facilities at hand I should have eadeavored to capture the smugglers, but II am alone on the island, and cannot get any Indians for a crew.
 I would further inform you that about the 18th inst, three canoes from Sitka and Tarcou called at this port on their way Ito Port Simpson, B. c., and 1 understand that they left the latter place loaded with molas- ses and are now on their way home.

 Acting deputy collector.
 "The trade of the Chilcat 1n- dians has been until a very few years past, the most valuable ln Southeastern Alaska.

our very doors to British Col umbia. It is a source of un- pleasant feeling to admit have no reason to doubt the ac- curacy of the statements of var ious officials in reference to the complicity of the Rev. Mr. Duncan in the above mentioned smouggling case. He may not have been directly interested pecuniarily in the success of the venture, but that he sold the goods to the Indians cannot be a matter of doubt. Again, he is a missionary, civil magis- trate, Indian agent, trader and Justice of the Peace. and it can not be disputed that these In- dians could not have departed upon this expedition without his knowledge.
 Mir. Duncan will have to en- ter his goods at our customs houses and prevent his Indians from a repetition of this of fense, else there will be some seizures and perhaps bloodshed in Alaskan waters.n

|. v. v. LEADERS FAIL TO
SPREAD ORE DOCK STRIKE.

DULUTH, Mimi, August s. - There
was little change in the strike situat-
ion here today. This means a continu-
ed loss Of over 5 100. 600 day to shipp-
ing, to miners on the iron range. to
range railroads. and to dock companies
and workers.
Duluth strikers present their de-
mands to the Missabe officials, but the
company refused to recognize the de-
mand and the strike continues with bur
eighty men at work on the docks. The
Missaba people stated to day that the
strike can be broken in twenty four
hours. and that this action will be tax
en- if the men do not resume work.
The Industrial Workers of the World
failed to spread the strike to Two Har-
bors. and movement of ore there is nor
NAL. Speakers sent to Two Harbors to
influence the workers met with chill
ly reception. Tie workers declared
themselves satisfied both with 0rking
conditions and wages.
SUPERIOR Wis, - Aug. The strike
situation in Superior has reached the
point where Mayor Konkel of Superior
has threatened to ask Gov. McGovern
of Wisconsin to order out troops to pre-
vent disorder and protect life and pro-
perty. /. w. w. leaders are inflaming
Allouez strikers by bitter harangues
and the docks at that point may be the
theatre of most serious trouble.
Leading citizens of Superior appoint
ed committee of nine to confer with
the strikers today toward bringing a.
bout a settlement and resumption of
work. In hot verbal battle with j.
P. Canno on leading |. w. w. agitator,
the mayor ayowed his intention of hay-
ing Allouez placed under martial law
if strike breakers are interfered with.
Nearly. 100 of Superior foremost ci-
tizens were .assaiIed by. Cannon. They
were present at meeting of strikers
with view to- amicabie settlement
when they were excoTiated and called
parasites and meddIers by Canonop.
you're all parasites and your wives
are parasites. shouted the frenzied a.
gitator.
