Two or three hundred people, who started from Dawson for Fort Yukon, were stranded there, but most of them procured small boats and continued on theli wa to Fort Yukon, which is 90 mile distant. t'ircle City, owing to the unexiected increase In population, was almost de void of grub. Of the 127 residents of that camp, nearly all mere calculating on sending to Fort Yukon for supplies. Briefly, were It not for the supplies at Fort Yukon, which to a certain extent are an unknown quanity, the situation at Circle City would be far more despernle than at Dawaon Joaquin Miller arrived at Dawson from Circle City December 4, at 11 o'clock. He was very badly frozen, lytving lost a part of the gieut toe of his left foot; bis left ear was eluding off and both cheeks were frozen, lie left Circle City 35 days before, in company with Herald Cano van, of Ottawa, late of the coast survey. They started, from Circle City without dogs having been unable to secure them. They pulled their outfit on a sled. Mr. Miller brings a atory of great suf fering along the river by parties who were caught in the ice on their way to Dawson, but who had not yet reached Circle City. lie reports a'so the death of Charles Anderson, a young man from Brooklyn, X.

A letter has come from Dawqn City, written by ex Assemblyman William Gloyer, formerly of Nevada and later of Ventura county, to his brother James, of Ontario. It gives interesting information concerning California miners who went t) that re gion last May. In the party was ex Su pervisor Joseph E Bullock, of San Diogo, and Hiram Sampson, of Bakers field. The party located on a small creek at the headwaters of the Klondike riyer. Mr. Glover says that 37 claims were taken there in one day. AH of them proved wonderfully rich. Mr. Bullock hxd ttl.t ned np over $20,000 worth of gold between August 1 and November 15. Mr. Sampson, who went in last sum mer with less than 500, has nearly 100 pounds uf gold, troy weight, and expects to get much more from the sluicing next spring. Mr. Glover had about 70 pounds of gold on hand when he wrote the letter, and believed he would have about $30,- 000 ready to send to San Francisco by next summer. He adds that it is the general opinion that from $7,000,000 to $10,000,000 will go down the coaxt from the Klondike duting the season of 1898. BiWer Bepnblloam Not Wanted. Cincoo, Jan. 0. W. J. Bryan, in concluding a speech before (he Bryan League, at theTremont house, during a banquet held after the auditorium meet ing early this morning, made some re marks which are interpreted as showing his intentions, if he is nominated for the presidency in 1900. In speaking of the next presidential election, Mr. Bryan said : "It may be we will be strong enough to win without any outside help. But, nevertheless, I preter to win with the populists on the one side and the free- silver republicans on the other. And we must not forget, when the victory is wqd, that iu the campaign of last year it took more courage on the part of the free- silver republicans to desert their old party, and more self-sacrifice on the part of the populists, to go outside of their organization tor a presidential candidate, because he agreed with them on the paramount issue, than it did for the democrats to support the ticket, which was nominated by their own conven tion." 8trikars M ait Fay a Tax- Boston, Jan. 9. The mule spinners of Lowell and New Bedford were today given permission to strike by the execu tive committee of the mule spinners' union, and an assessment of 25 cents per week waa leyied on the members of the union. Delegates representing every mill center in New England .were pre sent. Several delegates made applica tion for permission to strike, but the board denied permission to all places ex ept Lowell and New Bedford, it beingu thought advisable to have the strength i of the organization centered on those , places. In the event of Lowell declining to strike, the assessment, which will mount to between $7oO and $wo a week, will be devoted to the New Bed ford strike. It was voted where reduc tions in wage occur which will bring tliern below the anion scale, to leave the matter to the executive committee to de cide as to the advisability of a strike. It was decided that in cases ol strikes the backers and doffers would receive $2 a week during the strike. Oorbutt Will Barprlse Tha World. 8t. Louis, Jan. 9. Corbett and his company opened here tonignt. When Corbett was informed by the Associated Press that Fitzsiminons tonight agreed to sign articles with him, providing he fir-st whipped Maher, he said: "Tint's the same old story. He wants to sidetrack me onto somebody elxe, which be cannot do. I am not going to tire the public further. There Is nothing new in this proposition. What I will do will be 'stated January 17, when I will issue a final challenge, which will ftirtle the sporting world. It will con tain a proposition never before heard of by any pugilist. I don't know whether I can whip anybody else in the world, but I know I can whip Fitzsimmoos. If he does not accept this final challenge from me, I will retire from the ring, and never talk filit to anybody again, but will a'ady for the stage and stick to it. The one thing constantly before me is to fliiht Fitzsimmons.andif he won't accept, then I will know be is done, then I am done. Th Oppofltloi to KcKenna Washington, Jan. 11. The entire time of the senate judiciary committee meeting today was consumed in reading communications bearing upon the nomi nation of McKenna to be justice of the United States supreme court. There was a great mass of these, some of them urging confirmation and others in oppo sition thereto. There waa a large num ber of protests against the nomination from branches of the American Protec tive Association and also from some member of the bar from the Pacific coast, besides a miscellaneous lot of letters from other parti of the country The charge was general, that McKenna had not had tha leval training and judicial experience to fit him for the position. There was also s disposition manifested on the part of some to toma hawk him on the gronnd that he was a ' member of the Catholic church. The j committee will meet again on Thursday. Oorbatt Will lot la Bested- Washington, Jan. 10. It had been expected that the committee on privi leges and elections would meet today to take np the claim of W. H. Corbett to a seat in the senate from Oregon, on the appointment of the governor ol that state, but, owing to the absence of Senator Burrows, the meeting will not be held until next Monday. Mr. Burrows is the only republican on the committee who will oppose the seating of Mr. Corbett. He takes the position that the decision in the M mile case is a precedent against the appointment of senators where the legislature has bid an opportunity to act, which cannot be put aside. His vote will thus have the effect of sending the matter to the ssiia'e on an adverse report, as without Mr. Burrows the com mittee is at tie. Committed 8uioida la Jail Seattle, Jan. 9. Fred Lewis, a pris oner in the city jail, committed suicide in his cell tonight by hanging himself with a pocket hankerchief, which was fastened to a hook used in susponding a hammock. Lewis, who was a waiter in a hotel, had a fight on New Year's day with Joseph Kurtz, the head cook, in which he struck Kurtz on the head with an icepick, inflicting a wound from the effects of which Kurtz died today. Lewis was arrested yesterday, but no formal charge had yet been made against him, pending the result of Kurtz' wounds. When the news of Kurtz' death was con veyed to Lewis, he showed great agi tation, and a short time afterward took his own life. Consumption Positively Cured. Mr. R. D- Greeve, merchant of Chil howie, Va. certifies that be had con sumption, was given up to die, sought all medical treatment that money could procure, tried all cough remedies he could hear of, but got no relief ; spent many nights sitting up in a chair; was induced to try Dr. King's New Discov ery, and was cured by use of two bottles.

HANNA BOTH TERMS Elected Senator in Ohio oa First Joint Balltt. Uoremor Hunhnell's Scheme to Disrupt the Party Failed Absolutely-IneU dents ef the Cosiest. Colcmbos, O., Jan. 12 The bitter senatorial contest is ended.and Marcua A. Hanna has been elected senator for 'both the long and short terms,' by the ' senate and boae of the state legisla ture In joint session assembled. I Senator Hanna received 73 votes, a maionty of one over the combined strength of the opposition. McKisson received 69 votes for the short and 70 for the long term. One representative, Cramer was abssnt during the voting, on account of Illness. Although joint balloting for senator did not begin nntil noon today, the leg islative hall were crowded early in the morning. At the hotels the opposing headquarters presented the same scene. The workers on both sides showed mora plainly their weariness than on foimer mornings. The Hanna hustlers were op all night. Their opponents spent the en tire night in getting members out of bed and staying near others. There were several collisions in the hotels between opposing workers and watchmen before daybreak and their feelings had not abated any when they met again in the statehouse. There were reports about attempts to absent members during the night. When the bouse convened at 10 o'clock Representative Otis was promptly recog nized on a question of privilege. U made a long statement regarding the Boyce bribery charges. He said it waa due to the house and himself to have an investigation before proceeding to elect a senator, and offered a resolution ac cordingly. On a motion to suspend the rules for the immediate consideration of the resolution, the vote stood 52 ayes. 56 nays. The yote waa precisely the same as all votea cast on the two ballots for the abort and long terms for senator. There are 109 members of the boose. The 56 Hanna men always voted solidly. Cramer was absent. Tba other ' 46 demo cratic members and the six bolting re publicans voted together for an inves tigation before electing a senator. Stewart, one of the Hanna leaders, moved for a recess until noon. The op position moved for a recess of five min utes, but was defeated by a vote of 56 to 52. Soon after the senate assembled. Burke, of Cleveland, offered a resolution demanding an investigation into the charges of bribery. The resolution pro vided for a committee of five, consisting of three democrats and two republicans. A long and bitter discussion ensued. The roll call of the senate was called first in joint session, and there were no changes from the vote of yesterday 19 for McKisson and 17 for Hanna. The yote in the house was the same as that of yesterday, with the exception that Haslett, who voted for Wiley, and Hess, who voted then for Warner, today voted with the other democrats for McKisson. Wiley was the only democrat not vot ing with the coalition, and he voted again for Congressman Lentz. Lieutenant-Governor Jones announced the re sult of the joint ballot as : Hanna 73 Lentz 1 McKisson 70 Absent 1 He then declared Marcus A. Hanna elected senator for the unexpired term ending March 4, 1899. Owing to the cheering and noise, the chair allowed the jollitiers to continue before the more exciting vote for the long term was be gun. The ballot for the long term re sulted without much interest being man ifested, and resulted the same as that for the Bhort term. Appropriation! for Oregon Washington, Jan. 11. Senator Mc Bride, of Oregon, has introduced an amendment to the Indian appropriation bill to set apart $533,270 to pay claims of Klamath Indians, and $06,800 for educa ting 400 Indian youths at Salem ; $15,000 for steam heating and $4000 for lights; $5000 for repairs ; $1500 for a gymnasium and equipments ; $2000 for shops, and $7000 for new buildings, at the Salem school.
