THE DALLES WEEKLY CHKONICLK. WEDNESDAY. FEBRUARY 1, IS93. A NEW RAILROAD TO THE KLONDIKE An Iowa Syndicate Proposes to Bull! It Via Copper River. A SUBSIDY IS ASKED FOR Company is Capitalized at Tbirty Mil lions and Asks the- L'nitcd States to Advance to It ,i.ooo for Each Mile of Railroad Built, Construe tion to be L'ndcr Direct Charge of Secretary of the Interior. Sw York, Jan. 30. A dispatch to the Herald says : Several Iowa men have asked congress to grant a subsidy of $16,000 a mile for a railway and telegraph line to the Klon dike. Representative Curtis, of Iowa, In trodaced a bill in the house Saturday to carry out the wishes of the syndicate. This syndicate has organized the Cup per River & Yukon Hail road Company, and they ask congress to grant them the right to incorporate for fifty years, to give them right of way for the rail road and telegraph line Irora Yaldes inlet, Alaska, over this route east and northeast through the pass and along the mountains, north and east to the Copper River bottoms and thence up the west bank of the river to tho Slahana river and Matasta lake; thence through Matasta pass and east to the little Tokio river and thence down the left branch and np the right and thence southwest to and up Copper creek as far as the cop per mines extend. It is provided that a branch line shall be built from touio point east of Manias ta past down some stream to the Yukon river to t'e Canadian boundary . This company is to be capitalized at $30,000,000. It Is to have tho right to bond and mortgage the line at not to exceed $30,000 per mi'e, but this mort gage is to be subsequent to the claim of the United States for the $16,000 per mile advanced by the government. Provision is made for appointment by the president of iupctors, who shall wlLees the construction of the line ai.d report each ten miles built, and upon receiving the inspector's certificate the government shall issue thirty-year three per cent bonds, which shall be pro facto a first mortgage on the railway and all its appartenances. The measure requires that the road thill be built at the rate of forty miles a year, and its construction to tie under the immediate supervision of the secretary of the interior. NAVAL PERSONNEL MEASURE Its Friends Confident of Favorable Ac tion in the Senate Daring the Coming Week. Nsw York, Jan. 30. A dispatch to the herald from Washington says: It is the understanding of the senate naval committee that the naval person nel bill will come np for consideration in the senate during the coming week. Friends of the measure are confident of favorable action, but fear it will be loaded down with injurious amend ments. The department is anxious that the measure become a law as it passed the bouse, and without the provisions in serted by the senate committee, author izing the appointment into the service of volunteer officers under 25 years who served during tho war. It hM been foond, however, that if the president chooses, he can make the provision practically useless. He is required to raake such appointments within two years trom the date of the passage of the act. Few of these officers are not over 24 years, and it would not be abso lutely necessary for the president to make more than tbirty appointments, and these in the lower grades. Orders have been issued by the navy department detaching all retired officers except those on duty as prizj commis sioners, from active service and ordering them to proceed to their homes. Eighty per cent of the volunteer officers have Deen discharged. American Vessels Predominate. Sah Fbascisco, Jan.30. The Ameri ran shipping interests of the Hawaiian Islands have largely increased since their annexation to the United States. There are now loading for or on the way to the island! fiftj vessels, of whicn tnirty five fly the American flag, five the Brit ish, throe the Norwegian and two the German. These veesels bail from Tar iona torU. most of them laden with gen eral iueri.-lian.lisn, and expect to return with cargoes of ugar. RICHEST THE WORLD HAS SEEN Cold Strike at Isabella Ground, Colo. Far Exceedes the Wildest Ex pectations. Denver, Jan. 30. A special to the hes from Cripple Creek, Colo., says ol the recent strike in Isabella Orouod: Your correspondent saw chunks of syl vanite that were three inches thick, and solid metal, and chunks of oxidized ore of same width that be whittled with a Docket knife. No assays have been made I on the rock ; It is not necessary, but pieces of free-gold ore, if ore it can be called at all, rnn over $500,000 per ton. The Mollie Gibs u never produced any ore that carried more ounces in silver per ton than the Isabella does In gold. With every hour's work the streak is lengthening and widening. Joining the metallic body there are six feet of quartz that will rnn from $1000 to$'J000 per ton. Manager Kilburn sai.l : "I don't like to say anything that will excite people any more than they are at present. The metallic ore body has doubled in size both ways since yesterday morning. Some of the pieces of ore are 80 per cent gold. I never saw such mineral, ami I do not believe its like was ever mined in this or any other camp in the world. We have bad no assays taken on the rock, hut a ton of it conld be picked out that would run anywhere from $50,000 to $200,000. The strike was made in a new ore body at a depth of 850 feet. The chute has been cut at the seventh level 200 feet above, and aleo at the fifth. At the latter place the assay was obtained in the breast of the drift yesterday, on two feet of ore that went better than $1000 per ton. There is at least blocked out in one level, between the ninth and seventh levels $5,000,000 worth of ore." AN AGREEMENT IS NOW IN SIGHT Negotiations for an American-Canadian Trade Treaty Have Taken a Favor able Turn. JCkw York, Jan. A dispatch to the Herald from Washington says: Pros pects for an agreement between the British and American j tint high com mission on questions affecting Canada and the United States have greatly im proved within the last week, and it is expected now that a complete agreement on all points will be reached early in February. Reciprocity has been the stumbling block in the way of the commission. The principal poiDt of friction was in re gard to the duty on lumber imposed nnder the Dingley law. Candians de manded concessions on this that the American commissioners were not at first willing to make. This question has not been settled, but It is understood that both sides are more conciliatory, each being anxious that the entire negotiations should not fail on account of one point of agree ment. Bit Lire Saved. Mr. J. E. Lilly, a prominent citizen of Hannibal, Mo., lately bad a wonder ful deliverance from a frightlul death. In telling of it he says: "I was taken with typhoid fever, that ran into pneu monia. My Inngs became hardened. I was so weak I couldn't even sit np in bed. Nothing helped me. I expected to soon die of consumption, when I heard of Dr. King's New Discovery. One bottle gave great relief. I con tinued to use it, and now am well and strong. I cau't say too much in its praise." This marvellous medicine is the surest and quickest core in the world for all throat aud lung trouble. Regular size 50 cents and (1.00.
