NEWS NOTES.
Latest advices states that the Cana
dian government want the Skaguay and
Dyea passes closed.
This morning's bulletin states St.
Louis was panic stricken over a tremen
dous wind storm, and that several peo
ple have been killed.
Gus Wachlin, the Hillsboro murderer,
made a confession yesterday of how the
deed was committed, and stales that
another man did the shooting.
Senator Perkins and Representative
Maguire, of California, yesterday' form
ally invited the president to touch the
button next Saturday which will open
the golden jubilee mining fair of that
state. The president replied to the tele
gram of the mayor of San Francisco, and
accepted the invitation to set the ma
chinery in motion.
It isalearned from official sources that
there is no foundation for the report
that the Canadian government has de
cided not to allow United States troops
to cross British territory. The Klondike
relief expedition will go forward as con
templated by congress in the special ap
propriation passed for that purpose, and
in the manner planned by the secretary
of war.
It is now certain that the man found
dead, with his throat cut and his body
mangled, on tho railioad track near
Fallon's, early in December, was Ed La
here, a Frenchman, who left Belle
Fourche, S. 1)., and went to Portland.
He was returning to Palouse in search
of work when murdered. It is known
that he carried $800. It is thought that
thugs learned of this in Portlund, and
followed him here.
