WASHINGTON, June 30-Advices have been received here indicating that the bubonic plague has broken out at New Orleans. Surgeon Gen. eral William c. Gorgas win at once take charge of the situation. He will adopt stringent measures that he believes will soon have the effect of eradicating the evil.
 WASHINGTON, June oo.-This afternoon, by appointment, Presi- dent Wilson met TOO Suffragettes in the east room of the White House After listening to their plea he stated that he believed that the ques- tion of woman's suffrage was mat ter for the various states and not the federal government to decide. This immediately brought forth a babble of protests from the women and when they continued to heckle the President, he turned around and walked out of the room.
 WASHINGTON, June 30.-Repre- sentatives of the negroes have had an interview with President Wilson relative to office holding. They main tain that the 10,000,000 negroes i'll the United States should be entitled to proportional representation in the matter of holding public office. The President announced this morning that he would fill all federal posi- tions now held by negroes with other negroes in case any change were made. And it is taken that this will prove satisfactory to the colored race as they scarcely hoped fer anything like proportional representation.
 SEATTLE, June 25.-Frank G. Pickarts, pioneer Alaskan who has operated in the various camps of the north, was married last night 10 Miss Alice NJ. Gill, a sister of Mayor Gill.
 LONDON, June S0.-The foreign secretary, Sir Edward Grey. in ad- dressing the House of Commons. stated that England has had no cor respondence with the United States on the subject of the Panama Canal since President Wilson's election.

The Chitina leader., 1914-06-30

TOKYO, June 30.-The foreign minister has stated that the treaty negotiations over the attitude of California with reference to the treatment of the Japanese would not be announced at present. This action is taken out of difference to a request of the United States.
 WASHINGTON, June 3O.-The Senate committee on military affairs has favorably reported Chairman Chamberlain resolution authorizing the President to recruit the army 70 its full war strength, exceeding the stationary limitation.
 TORREON, June 30.-The Consti- tutionalists are all up in the air over a further continuance of hostilities. An element of the rebels insist upon keeping up the fight while others believe that the time has come 10 bring about peace. President Car ranza has just arranged a conference with Gen. Villa, with reference 10 the latter's abandoning his campaign of destruction. The president of the rebel forces wishes to aid in the restoration of order and prosperity.

ing south of the Borden Building the work will have been completed. It also resulted in the leveling of the thoroughfare at the upper end of First street, as the dirt and gravel was taken from the heavy grade that caused strong pull for horses and autos, in the effort to reach the wharf.
 Dr. E. Lester Jones was not enabled to get away on Saturday night as he wished to visit and make an investigation at the Orca cannery. He also was desirous of securing photographs of the proposed site for hatchery at Lake Eyak, his photog- rapher accompanying him there to- day. The Albatross will go to Valdez tonight and from there go to the westward as far. as the Pribilof Islands. Dr. Jones will not likely leave Alaska before October, as he wishes to make. a thorough study of thS hShCI iCS COiiuliiOhS anu tO ISdl and see all sides of the question, al- though he may return to Cordova in August for short trip to the interior
 Dr. Jones is very enthusiastic over the site at Lake Eyak for fish hatchery. He says it is the best one he has yet seen in Alaska, and he will recommend that a hatchery be established there. He urges that a bill appropriating s50,000 for the construction of this hatchery be pre- pared and introduced in Congress by Delegate Wickersham, and that the people of Cordova petition the Dele gate to use his strongest endeavors to secure the passage of the bill. In it's operation it would prove. eventu- ally to be worth millions of dollars in preserving and perpetuating the fisheries of the north.
 Father Van Der Pol and Father Shepard were passengers on the Alameda for Juneau where they will meet Father Gleason, the new Provincial.

 Manager Council announces that the Cordova baseball team will go to Valdez on the steamer Sampson tomorrow afternoon. They desire 10 be there so that they may have time to do some practicing on the Valdez grounds and be in better position 70 do team work, as they have had little opportunity to practice together in Cordova. The members of the team have about been selected, al- though 1t will not be known defi- nitely until tonight just who will go.
 The new uniforms for the ball team that were ordered a couple of weeks ago are expected to arrive tomorrow At the dance held on Saturday night about S120 was cleared, which will go a long ways towards paying the cost of para phernalia secured for the boys.

BUTTE, June S0.-The Butte Local. No. l, Western Federation of Miners, resumed business last night with S6 members in attendance at a meeting. Alh~efforts to compromise. the differences in the union have failed, so the former or seeding members have organized an inde- pendent union, claiming to have 2,715 members. Trouble is likely to break out anew as it is claimed by the regulars that the executive board of the Western Federation will now be compelled to call out the engineers and members of the other unions affiliated with the Western Federation. It is eontended that the men of the regular organiza- tions will not be allowed to work with the large army of seceders.
