averted. The narrow valley between
the Dyea water front, clear aboye
llealy Wilson's trading post.a mile
distant, is filled with tents and shaeds
of all descriptions.

Hansen, one of tho managers of the

ment of the efforts to get food up the
river. Fully 400 miners at once made
preparations to start out over the
trails, but the citizens' committee re
fused to allow them sufficient pro
visions for the journey, so, save those
who had already started, all will have
to remain and share In tho privations
at Dawbons.
On tho way over tho Dalton trail,
which In many places runs along the
Yukon's bank, Fries' party met many
boats bound down. He estimated
that about 300 boats arc going down
the river with from four to seven
men each. Tho Fries party was the
last to leave Dawson. At Five Finger
rapids they fell in with a party headed
by Kay Stuart, ofvNcwYork, which
left live days before, and caught up
with the party made up of John Fry,
F. L. and J. Trlppe and C. Holden, of
New York, with an Indian gnlde.

O. L. Brown,
1,0 20 1, wd&w, County Treasurer.
New York, Oct. 20. Tho Herald
says: Porto Rlcans of this city aro
talking about another uprising In
Spain's minor colony In tho West
Indies. They throw out dark hints
about an expedition that Is dally ex
pected to land, and talk with confi
dence of being ;ablo to sweep Captain
General Marin and COOO Spanish regu
lars into the sea. The Spanish volun
teers, who number nbout 7000 on tho
Island, aro not taken Into consider
ation; but aro dismissed by tho plot
ters as men who uovcr light.
Several Porto Rlcans havo arrived
In the city within tho last week with
news from the island that has been
tied up by tho Ures of revolution
among the exiles who are here. They
dcclaro that Porto Rice will not accept
autonomy, and that an uprising will
take placo beforo Spain has an oppor
tunity to Inagurato tho proposed ic
forms. The revolutionary junta of
which Dr. J. Julio Henna Is tho head,
which has been Inactlvo slnco tho
abortlvo attempt of March 24, has
been aroused by the news from tho
Island.
Meetings have been held messengers
dispatched and an air of mystery as
sumed by those who aro Interested In
tho project of wresting Porto Rice
from tho grip of Spain. It Is even
hinted that tho mysterious schooner
Silver Heels, which was supposed to
have left this port a week ago with
war material for tho Cuban Insurgents
may not bo bound for Cuba ut all, but
may bo next heard from in Torto Rl
can waters.
Much Importance Is attached to the
dopurturo ofJoso iDavlla, a wealthy
merchaut and coffee planter of
Juana, Port Rice, who has been In this
city for six months, nnd who disap
peared tho day beforo tho Sllvor Heels
sailed. Rumor places him on tho
schooner, and is to tho effect that ho
has gone to tho Jamaica to lit up an
expedition. It Is said Davlla will bo
joined In Juana by Rolg, who is do
scribed as tho hero of tho Yanco up
rising of last March.
It is said tho services of a Cuban in
surgent with tho rank of major-general
and two Santo Domingo generals
havo been secured for the coming rev
olution, und that aid will bo obtained
from Ilaytl and San Domingo, as well
as from this country.
Dr. Henna, the head of the Junta,
declines to talk.
Ono of tho Porto RIcan residents
of this city said that ho received a
letter from tho Island stating that
the Spanish authorities have resorted
to the "Componto'' method of treat
ing their political prisoners. Tho
letter states that Senors Matos Hor
nier, Gulllcmo, Belasco and Toraas
Currou havo been subjected to tho
treatment, which Is tho same that Is
ullcgcd to have resulted In tho death
of Dr. Ruiz in Havana.
The punishment was Indicted, It Is
alleged for tho purpose of forcing , tho
prisoners to tell where a quantity of
ammunition hud been burled, but tho
men rcfuscdto give- any Information.
Word was received that Manuel
Catulu, who wus sent to Porto Rice
with messages from tho junta and
for whom tho authoratlcs wero look
ing, had succeeded In making his
cseapo to Huytl.
