 SKATING RACE LAST NIGHT

There was large crowd in attend ance at Jaxon's rink last night, the attraction being the skating race be- tween Rohrabaugh of Juneau and Van Der wyer of Douglas. The latter won by half lap. but demonstrated that he could have made the difference much greater.
 The two racers were started In op- posite corners. The men raced evenly for the first ten laps after which Van Der wyer commenced steadily to gain on his opponent. At about the 10th lap he caught up with Rohrabaugh, and followed close onto his heels un- til the 12Oth lap, when Van Der Wyer had the misfortune to fall. Regain ing his feet he commenced to sprint and was gradually gaining when the l25th lap was recorded, at which time he was but quarter lay behind Rohr. abaugh.

PROMISES AMAZING STORY OF
HIGH FINANCE
Washington, May 14I-Charles S.
MeIlen began today what promises
to be the most amazing story of high
finance ever related in the United
States.
The former head of the New Haven
system as a witness before the inter
state commerce commission, publicly
declared that he planned to reveal the
entire plot whereby legislatures and
city governments were purchased and
entire railway systems manipulated
for the benefit of Wall street insiders.
Although interrupted almost at the
very commencement of his tale, he
showed how he personally paid out
over a million dollars for stock Ger
tifcates, the value Of which he placed
at '.ten cents pound"
Standing out above everything else
in Menen's story today was the fact,
that he was the late ]. P Morgan's
representative. He said that he was
put at the head of the New Haven by
Morgan.
When asked to identify the persons
who got the money Mellen leaned far
over the table and, looking Solicitor
Folk squarely in the eye, said:
"They were all alike. They would
side into my offices and get by my.
clerks. Then they would pun an en-
velope out of their pocket.
"They would take paper out and
say: I have your due bill here. for
$4,000 or some such sum-

DICK DORWAlDT
 IN TROUBLE AGAIN

A fight occurred on lower Front street this morning about eight O. clock over the possession of tho old lopgshoremen's union hall, It was a pretty lively affair for a time in which guns and other weapons dourished. As a refult Dick Dorwaldt and his ally Harry Howard were led away to the city jail with badly bruised heads, by Chief William Mcbride who wit messed the afrair, while Albert Martin, the victor, has again taken possession of the property
 The difficulty arose when Martin. who had been dispossessed, came to the place this morning with rife on his arm. Howard trained revolver on him in a threatening manner Mar. tin swung his rife and struck Howard on the head and then seizing beer bottle struck Dorwaldt laying him out temporarily. They were then both placed under arrest and led to the city jail
 Dorwaldt has been arrested more than once for being connected with gun aourishing oscapades and has been twice tried on insanity charges within the past two years.
 The building over which the trou- ble arose is built on leased ground in the Callahan Dorwaldt tract. The building was purchased by Martin sro-n the longshoremen's union. Dor wa'dt leased the property to the union and has since, so 1t Is said, disposed Of h's equity in the>property but has rtheless set up a claim for 1t.
 Chief of Police William Mcbride this afternoon swore to a complaint alleging that Dick Dorwaldt is insane He will probably be given hearing tomorrow.

SOMETHING OF PIONEER
 WOMEN IN ALASKA

Mrs. Strong. wife or GOV. J. r. A. Stcng of Alaska. talking recently to the Providence Journal, said of the women of Alaska:
 "I do not know Of any other women who cal equal them in resourceful- ness. And they are filled with an en- ergy which makes nothing too hard of accomplishment. If they give an af- ternoon tea 1t Is in as attractive sur roundIngs as one could find anywhere, with the same appointments as the East affords. Flowers from Seattle will adorn the rooms, the whitest of napery covers the table. while the ser vice is perfect, not to mention the re- freshupnts,'
 The women of Alaska have suffrage. the first bin passed by the new Legis. lature year ago giving them that right, and women have been members og thn board of education and held similar offices. The children are very patriotic,' singing their Alaska songs with tervor, as if patriotism meant more to them than to the majority of American children.
 It Is 17 years since the future Gov ernor and his wife first went to Alaska and Mrs Strong vividly recalls the diff terence between two trips made along the Yukon. She says:
 ''One we made when we first entered the country. It Is what is known as the interior trip of the Yukon-over wild mountain passes. behind dog teams whipsawing our lumber for crude craft when we came to the streams. It was a trip through the primitive, with obstacles on every hand. And, yet. can recall no cir cumstance which struck me as big adventure at the time. One takes the days as they come. oyercomes what obstacles appear, and keeps on
 'The second trip we made when the Governor had been in office but a short time. It was over the same trail. But, oh, what a different trip! Along the mountain passes in well. equipped trains and on the rivers in the Dalatial Yukon steamships! It was a contrast I shall never forget" -Christiau Science Monitor.
