Seattle, Wash., Juno 1. The rush
to the Idltarod diggings has changed
to a sthmpede. Seattle shipping, job
bing, banking and mining Is stirred
as it has not been since the stampede
t otho Klondike in 1897.
A letter in yesterday from the new
camp from H. M. Marshon, well
known in the north as a conservative
mining man, states .that the diggings
are "so rich in places that we must
guard the dumps as we have guarded
our pokes fn other districts."
Thirty-five miles of pay dirt on the
five creeks already discovered, aver
aging 5Q0 feet, and so rich that it is
not unusual to secure anywhere from
$5 to $50 per pan, is another state

After making a vigorous arid ad

oilman's rescue with a technical ob

disposed of. But later In the ses on
tho councilman mado another mad
break to sever his connection' with
tho city's law making department,
and this time it looked as though ho
would succeed in splto of all his
friends could do for him in depriv
ing the city of a valuable Bervant by
plunging his career Into political ob
livion. His friends, however, again
came to his rescue and it is now be
lieved that he may bo mado to yield
to the honeyed words and astute
reasoning of tho mayor and recon

Wanted to Wnlvo Rule.
It was in a lull of tho council
manic business that Councilman E'.
dridgo last evening arose to an
nounce to the mayor that he desired
to present his resignation with tho
condition that It tako effect at the
close of tho session. His friends
looked amazed and the mayor
looked grieved and he purred back
at him something about that ho
sincerely hoped that Mr. Eldrldge
would reconsider .his action, and
eulogized lila services. Councilman
Lachmund moved that tho council
proceed to accept It, but tho mayor
Immedfately advised him that it was
a rule of the council that resigna
tions must be presented in writing.
"I move then," said Councilman
Lachmund, In his bold, bad way,
"that in view of. tho pleasure that
the council will receive in accepting
the resignation that tho rules be
waived," but the mayor was on hand
again with tho objection that the
council could not waive tho rulo,
and tho subject passed over for tho
moment.
Was n Valuable Man.
The subject bobbed up again later
in the session when Councilman El
drldge presented his resignation In
writing, and a -motion was made
that it bo referred to the ordinance
committee. Again the mayor purred
at him praising remarks, about his
valuable services and passionately
voiced his regrets at his action, af
ter which Councilman Lachmund,
who was evidently as anxious to give
him an opportunity .to resign as his
friends Were opposed to it, moved
that the motion be amended to tho
effect thnt the council proceed to act
upon the matterand punctuated His
motion with the, remark that he be,:
lleved it was due to the council from
Councilman Eldrldgo that he give
some reason for resigning.
Before tho motion received a sec

velt was In a Jovial mood today. Ho
spent nearly an hour reading the va
rious comments upon his speech rela
tive to tho British administration of

criticism did not strike deep;

London, June 1. English official
dom refuses to comment publicly on
Roosovolt's speech at Guild hall, be
cause of tho semi-official character
of the former president' visit here..1
In splto of this lack of open com-'
ment, however, it is plain to see that
many officials fear tho speech may ro
suit lri an upheaval of tho Anglo-
"Egyptian returns.
Many people today declaro that
Roosovolt violated diplomatic pro
priety, and compare tho Incidents
surrounding his speech to the Lord
Sackvlllo West incident in 1888, when
President Cleveland dismissed the
British ambassador for advising cit
izens of tho "United States to vote for

founded by tho colonel's utterances.
. Tho Evening Star says Roosovolt Is
"guilty of a grave offense against tho 1
laws binding, on host nnd guest." I
"Tho fact that Roosovolt's prede
cessor was assassinated," tho Star
adds, "should make him careful of
his comments regarding tho assassin
ation of Boutros Pasha."
Tho Manchurlan Guardian calls the
colonol's views "muddled and boy
ish." The Standard calls his speech
a "social crime, llttlo short of sacri-'
lege."
All tho newspapers concede that
Roosevelt's arraignment of the Ens-1
llsh people, after receiving tho city's
highest honor, violated the proprie
ties. Tho London Tlmos warns Roose
velt that he must not be surprised
"should unpleasant manifestations
occur, duo to sensitiveness resulting
from his criticism.' i
The Nows contomptiously denied
tho stntomonts of tho colonel.
The Leader calls him "the greatest
