The jury in the John w. Nit chell trial brought in an un- usual verdict yesterday when they found the accused item rorarily insane when the crime was committed. It ap- pears that Mitchell was under the doctors care at Petersburg and as the result of the treat ment which consisted of in- iections was for the time being insane when he 'tpeddled Iooze to natives" in the fishing metropolis. The poor devil is very sick, and the judge and jury evidently considered he had had punishment enough, hence the verdict. Judge Ly- cns ordered his release.

CoEvERNoR STRONG
 GOES TO JUNEAU

J. F. A. Strong, Alaska's new iy appointed governor, made Ketchikan a call while the City of Seattle was in the harbor this morning. A committee consisting of Mayor M. J. Hen eghan, Capt. w. A. Cornell and Charles H. Cosgrove met the distinguished visitor at the sangplank and escorted him up Front Street, thus giving Ketch- ikan citizens an opportunity to meet him, of which many availed themselves. ll was un- fortunate, owing to the hour and the brevity of the Scattle's .tay, that it was impossible to hold a public meeting, but Gov Strong assured the committee that he would take great pleas l.re ill coming down to Ketchi-
 n within a short time, and ,pend a few days with us, and will see to sit that ample notice fl the event is sent down so that he may have the opportun- ity of meeting all Ketchikan.
 To the Miner Man he stated that he was glad to be back in he north again among his own big hearted people, the people le knows and is proud tp be 'eckoned one of. He is satis- fled he said that g brighter day
 : dawning for Alaska, as all official life in Washington Is eaning in our favor, and the time is ripe for legislation that will make it possible for her to % ahead in the way she should. This is evident in the interest being taken by the President and his cabinet, and cannot but nesult in good for us all. "Give my truest regards to the pee- pie of this locality" he said, and tell them to rest assured that they with me and all the rest of this territory of ours are going to pull together fer q better known and more uni ted Alaska"

Mexico Election Proves Farce and
Will Be Annulled.

Mexico City, Oct. 2S.-The Mexican
elections have been an absolute farce.
Comparatively few votes have been
cast, and in some precincts there was
not a single ballot polled. OF the
four candidates, Diaz is reported lead
ing, although in the southern and GEN.
trail states Huerta has the advantage.
How Congress is to be elected is a
matter for the government to decide,
but that the new Congress will meet
Nov. l as planned is a certainty.
When Congress does convene ac-
cording to program the election for
President will be declared null and
void and Huerta will continue as pro-
visional President ad interim. Per
haps he will issue call for another
election soon.
It will be impossible to get even
an approximate result of Sundays
election for several days, and perhaps
not for months. This applies to the
city precincts. How long it will take
to hear from the outlying districts
cannot even be guessed.
