Otteb Point. B. C, Sept. 10. The
steamer Cleveland has arrived from St.
Michael-', bringing .whb her from the
Yukon gold fields a -story oi diatresS
and disaster. The miners she has on
board and officers ia charge of the ship
tell a storv of disorder and distress at
Dawson.
Winter has set in at the mining city
of the frozen north, and the two preat
stores of the place have closed their
doors, for they have nothing to sell
Those who have been seeking' for gold
must now seek for food or starve.
While there may be a tendency to
exaggerate the actual conditions.of af
fairs, there can be . no question that
famine threatens all the venturesome
men and women who made their way
to the Klondike.
Enormous prices are now being paid
for food at Dawson, and it is impossible
that more than four vessels with pro
visions can reach that camp before the
river freezes.
The first signs of winter are apparent
on the Yukon river, which is begin
ning to freeze, and in a few weeks will
be closed against all navigation.
On t ie Cleveland there are 33 pas
sengers who have come from Dawson
City. Tbore are few miners in this
party that are able to tell of prosperity.
The miners from Dawson report that
on July 25 the stores of the Alaska
Commercial Company and the North
Ame-iean Trading . & Transportation
Company closed their doors, . and an
nounced they had no more food to sell.
When the announcement was made
consternation seized upon the people
of Dawson, with gold-seekers crowd
ingjn at the rate of 20 to 39 Der day.
Drunkenness and disorder, gambling
and idleness were rampant.
At St. Michaels the condition of af
fairs is also the cause of gravest con
cern. There are not enough structures
in town to accommodate, the crowd,
a.ud ,flcore3,.cf CpeQgle are - living in
tents; - ... - - ?
Men who arrived at St. Michael and
learned that it would be impossible
for them to proceed up the Yukon,
were becoming very restless when the
Cleveland left there on Aug. 29.
Knowing nothing but suffering
awaited . them, they were making
serious threats against those who had
managed -the. expeditions that took
them there. W. D. Wood,- organizer
of the Humboldt expedition, which
had just arrived at St. Michaels, was
in danger of losing his life.

decrease in crop conditions; as well as
manipulation Wheat was given at
85.7 against 83.7 last month, a decline
of only one point, while from repeated
bad crop reports a much larger decline
was expected.

12:15 o'clock t.h s mi-ii a mile and
half west of this tou. Denver & Rio
Grande passenger train No. 1. west
bound, collided with a Colorado Mid
land stock train, going east, wrecking
both engines and several cars in bjth
trains.
Shortly after the collision fire broke
out in the trains. The mail, baggage,
and expre-s cars, smok-r, day c jach
and tourist sleptfr wers burned. A
number of passengers who were not
killed outright, but were pinned in
tbe wreckase am' could not be extri
cated, perisned in the tUmea. There
were about 2(X passengers. It is esti
mated that 2 persons were killed and
as many more bruised, scalded and
burned, of whom five or six are likely
to die of their injuries.
The accident ooourred at the worst
possible point. Two minutes running
time either way would have averted
the wreck, as each engineer could have
seen the approach of the other train.
The train? collided on a curve or bend
round a mountain, ana there was no
opportunity to avoid the wreck or
slacken speed.

never lived a day for thirty years without
suffering ag .ny. until a box of De Witt's

The Last Sad Raa.
Hazletox, Pa., Sept. 13. The first
official action of tbe day was the clos
ing of all the liquor Baloons until - 4
o'clock this afternoon. It was done
because of tbe funerals of the victims
which took place this morning, and
the fear of what might follow if the
strikers had access to liquor.
When the morning broke many of
tbe militiamen began to maki prepar
ations to leave .their commands for
the usiul promenade through the oity.
General Gobio, however, had issued
further orders, that all passes were
discontinued for the present, and no
one could leave camp.
By General Gobi n 'a order, the Po
lish priests and citizens met him this
morning at brigade headquarters. He
told tbem he had no objection to the
funeral procession, but that under no
circumstances must there be anything
in tbe nature of a military procession
or demonstration to show large num
bers. They could bury their dead with
all show of mourning, national and
religious services of any kind, but
they would not be permitted to carry
flags, banners, side arms or to have
music in any form.
All along the line of the funeral pro
cession and in. front of the church
where the services were to be held.
crowds of miner? afid. theU7 wi?es , he.
gan to gather at an early hour. ' What
micht be called two branches of the
funeral cortege arrived from Harwood
about noon. Notwithstgndlng General
Gobin's orders one of these was headed
by a brass band beating a mournful ac
companiment to tbe tramp of march
ing miners.
There were fully 2000 men in line
when the undertaker's shop was
reached. Around the undertaker's
shop was packed a surging throng of
foreigner:;. There was. no discord.
Within tbe establishment the partly
decomposed bodies Qf the dead miners
wera exposed to view.
Outside, meanwhile preparations
were under way for starting the big
parade. By noon it was apparent that
the funeral parade would not get under
under way until late iu tbe afternoon,
Tbe miners are perfeotly docile and no
trouble is anticipated.

The strikers left Hazelton about 3:30
o'clock ia the af'rnoon,and itwas their
intention to go to Latimer. As soon
as this became known, a band of depu
ties was loaded on a trolley car and
went whirling across the mountain to
the scene, where the bloody conflict
followed.
After reaching Latimer, they left tbe
car and formed into three companies,
under Thomas Hall, E. A. Hess and"
Samuel B. Sercy. Tbey drew up in
line, at the edge of the village, with ' a
fence and a line of houses in their rear.
Sheriff Martin was in entire com
mand and stood in the front of the line
until the strikers approached. They
were seen coming across the ridge,and
Martin went out to meet them. 'The
men drew up sullenly and listened In
alienee until he had once more read
the riot act.
This finished, a low muttering arose
among the foreigners, and there was a
slight movement forward. Perceiving
this tbe shir iff ptepped toward them
and forbade them to advance. ' Some
one struck the sheriff, and the next
moment tbe command was given to tbe
deputies to fire.
Tbe guns of the deputies instantly
belched forth a' terrible volley. The
report seemed to shake the very moun
tains, and a cry of dismay wentupfrom
the people.
The strikers were taken entirely by
surprise, and as tbe men fell over eacb
other, those who remained unhurt
stampeded. The men went down be
fore the storm of bullets like tempins,
and the groans of tbe dying and
wounded filled tbe air.
. Martin Roskj, an intelligent Hun
garian from Mount Pleasant, who was
shot in the arm, was seen by a reporter,
and gave this version of the affair:
. "We were going along the road to
Latimer, and the deputies were lined
across the road, barring our passage.
We tried to go through them, and did
not attempt to hit or molest them,
when they fired upon us. We ran, but
they kept on shooting at us while we
ran, Jt is all their fault."
Warrants have been issued for the
arrest of Sheriff Martin and the depu
ties who took part in the shooting, but
tbey have taken refuge in the camps of
the state militia that has been called
to Hageltoq by Governor Hastings.

THE CUBAN QUESTION.

Washington, Sept. 13. President
McKinley is expected tq reach, the
While House this evening, : Almost
mediately thereafter- he will hold an
(mportantcQcference with Consul Gen
eral Lee. -
Sq far as has been developed, the
president's Cuban polioy - is far from
an aggressive one. Up to date it un
doubtedtedly consists of a tender to
Spain of good offices, coupled with an
intimation that the United States
would be pleased to aee autonomy on
the Canadian plan granted to Cuba at
once.
General Lae,' say his friends, will
represent to the president that the in
surgents are now on top and will cer
tainly achieve their own salvation
without assistance.
General Lee believes Spain has lost
the island beyond recovery. Under
the ; circum.atapjqpa, the insurgents
would refuse autonomy without hesita
tion, and they have already practically
achieved their independence. He will

carry out an interesting exploit whljb
very neurly succeeded.
He liad himself fastened up in boa
nddressed to a largo importing house
nt Madrid md labeled: "Fragile With '
care. Top." Holes had been made in ' "
this box for breathing purposes and
one of its sides was so constructed that
it could be opened from within to give
the little dwarf a way of getting out ;
unnoticed when he reached his destina
tion. The box was fitted up with u
cushion scat and au abundant supply 1
of provisions was placed within it.
The start was raadc at Vienna, where -Zcitun;r

bo shipped to Madrid. by express. . .
Acaordinjf to Zeitung, ,the journey .
was na uninteresting1 one and with. ;
out ia .-idcat, but when he sot to the
Spani.Vi capital bis troubles -.began. '
Tho Madrid - statiohmaster evidently
had a por knowledge as to the fragil- .
ity of glass, for he turned the box over
and over, and at lust came to the con-
clusioa that its contents ought to be in
vestigated. . II is aids, therefore, opened
it and draped out the dwarf more dead
than alive from tho shaking he had re- '
reived. It would 'have "puzzled a man '
'.ess full of expedients how to further
punish Zeitung; but the siationmaster .
olved the problem by having him Sr- .
ested for trying to swindle the rail-
-oad companies out of their fares.
The dwarf's defense was that he was
traveling in this manner on a bet of
three thousand francs,, the terms of
the wager being that ho was to get to .
Madrid without a cent in his pocket.
Three hundred francs, however, were (
found concealed in his' shoes. Tbe real
reason for his traveling ia this remark
ble manner was that he might save '.
railroad fare and also got a good adver- "
t Isement for the engagement in Madrid,
for which he was billed. v
