He was born in Minnesota on August 16, 1 He was appointed a second lieutenant in the Sec- ond Infantry from civil life March 1, 1877, and for twenty years served in thatre ment as second and first lieutenant. On receiving bis well-deserved promotion to | captain, August 27, 1896, he was again as- | signed to the Second Infantry. His regiment left Atlanta, Ga., July'13, 1877, and proceed:d to ldaho to take part ic the Nez Perces campaign. In the spring of 1878 a portion of the regiment aided materially in bringing the Bannock Indians to terms. Theregiment remained in the Northwest until 1886, when it was ordered to Fort Omaha, Nevraska. It was encaged in the Sioux campaign of 1890-91 | at Pine Ridge, and was under fire at the defense of the agency at that place. In 1895 the regiment was ordered to take | station in the Department of Dakots, with headquarters at Fort Keogh, Montana. In 1884 General Miles, commanding the Department of the Columbia, selected Cap- | tain Abercombie, then. a second lisuten- ant, to explore the Copper River region of Alaska, The general in his ‘“Personal Recollections of General Nelson A. Miles”’ | refers 10 the expedition as follows: | nt Abercrombie found them (the noffensive and employed them boats up the river.

The State of California Carrled All the Miners Who Could Get Passage. The main Klondyke ezcitement on the water front yesterday aitended the de parture of the steamer State of California. | She will connect with the George W. Eider | at Portland, but did not take more than one hupdred miners smong the passen- gers. These are all the company wounld earry, as the other accommoslations on the Elder for Dyea had been s&cid. The crack | steamer carried cabin and 114 second cabin pa: Many of these were Christian Endeavorers, and bundreds of church people were down to see them off. A party of young ladies from the Mission Were also on the whart to see two of their | friends away, and 2s soon as the En-| deavorers had finished with the bymn, | “God be with you till we meetagain,’”’ the | Mission girls would break out ith “There'll be hot times in Klondyke to-night.”’ They had very pretty voices, and “‘hot times in Klondyke to-night were the last words the miners heard as the vessel moved away from the whar | and Captain Green put her on her course | for the Columbia River. Among those who went north on_the State were Dr. F. N. Rose and A. Bell. | They take 3000 pounds of supplies with | them and expect to be gone a year. Hun- dreds of miners, merchants end traders wantea to ship goods to Juneau by tbe steamer, but couid not secure accommo- | aations, and in consequence over 500 tons of merchandise was left ind. These goods will now have to take chances on the City of Puebla and the special steamer Willamette that is to be put on the route | direct to Juneau. The latter will carry at least 500 miners and their outfits, while the Puebla will have accommodation for | about 100 more. These latter will havs to | await one of the Alaskan steamers at Porl | Townsend. There 1s a wild scramble to secure | passage on the Excelsior that sails direct | for Dawson City to-day. All kinds oi‘ bonuses are offered for the tickets, but if the Ataska Commercial Company finds out that any transfer bas been made the | holder of the ticket will be left on the wharf. Gabe Cohn, one of the passengers, does not intend letting the grass grow under his feet. He expects to make a fortune in the spring, but, nevertheless, hopes to rake in a few shekels during the winter. He has purchased a phonograph, ana has cylinders with all kinds of mes- sages from friends and relatives in this City to friends in the frozen North, Mr. Cohn thinks that 50 cents will bs a fair re- muneration for the use of the instrument, e e ALASKA TELEGRAH. A Local Company Organized to Put Up a Thousand Miles of Wire to the Yukon. Articles of incorporation of the Alaska Telegraph and Teiephone Company were | filed with the County Clerk yesterday afternoon. The company proposes to constructa line of telezravh from Dyea to Dawson, and two brancl lines, one from Dyea to Juneau and the other from Dawson to Circle City. The estimated length of the main line and branches is 1000 miles. In connection with the telegraph line, cable and telephone lines mnecessary for the complete operation of the line will be built luter. The company is incorporated for the term of fifty years and its heacquarters are to be in this City. The capital stock is $250,000, divided into 25,000 shares of $10 each. There has been already subscribed $100,000, making $100 subscribed for every mile of the line. Ten per cent of this has been paid in to the treasurer of the com- pany, C. U. Wright. Tue director: of the corporation, ap- peinted for the first year are: Theodora Reichert, C. W. Wright ot Marin County, D. E. Bobaonnon, J. W, Wright and J, F. Fassett of San I'rancisco. Each of these hold stock to the amount of $20.000. Be- sides these a number of other capitalists in the City are interested in the venture and soon as the certificate of incorporation is received stock will be 1ssued to them and the election of officers will be held.

Assistant Superintendent Lamb of the Western Union on Tele- graphic Communication. F. H.

We foliowed that stream to 1s junction with the main wagon road to mouth of the Quesnell: four hundred | miles north of the starting point. We | crossed ti.e Fraser and followed the oid Hudson Bay trail to Fort Fraser and eena about miles from its mouth. We bailt the line to a point about 150 miles north of the Skeena, About 400 milesof the line was abandoned. The line is now operaied to Williams Creek in the district of Caribou about sixty miles beyond Canal on Caual Creek. I suppose that most ot the 400 miles of abtandoned wire has been taken by the Indians and others long ago. The Indi- ans use it especially to builld suspension bridges across the streams. “I'don’t believe that it is practicable to maintain an overland telegraph line to Alaska. Our line could never have been maintained if it had been completed. The line would run throagh a rough and beavily wooded country and would be h subject to constant interruption. The | only practicable way is to lay a cable | along the inland passages inside the | islands from the sound to Sitka.”’ All sorts of telegraphic enterprises will quickly come to the iront without dount, and it appears certain that telegraphic communication with Sitka and Juneau, if not with the Yukon Valley, will not b very long delayed. MR YUKON PLACERS. W. H. Mllls Eelleves That the ¥ ukon Basin Is a Vast Deposit of Gold-Bearing Earth. W. H. Mills of the Southern Pacific Company, who is familiar with the topo- graphical and geological features of California through observation ana stuay, had something interesting to say yester- day in reference to the new gold fields of Alaska. He based his views largely on conditions that prevail in this State. “Itis frequently 2 subject of surprised comment,” he said, “that the science of geology has contributed so littls to the discovery of precious metals. The suc- cessful prospector entertains a disdainful contempt for the suggestions of the science of geology taught in the schools. “Veins of silver, gold placers and aurif- erous quartz,” he continued, ‘‘have been them was not guided by the cosmogony of the schools. Notwithstanding this the miners accept theories at the hands of the scientific geologists. They believe in the glacial period of the formation of the earth’s crust. They have seen tue glacial pavement. They have observed the con- tour of the surface referabie only toglacial action. Their observation has extended to the production of placers as referable to this glacial action. *“The most commonly accepted theory of the most successiul prospectors and miners relating to placer mines is that they are the result of the erosion of aurif- erous quartz. Inferences derived from many facts confirm this theory. “'There are many places in California where the surface placers are poor com- pared with the richness of the placers which lie two or three hundred feet Lelow. An instance of this relates to the placers around Folsom in Sacramento County. It is well known that the town of Folsom is_built upon fabulously rich placers, which lie 200 feet below the surtace. The 1 | ravby to the Kiondyke region is more re- glacial erosion that carves the canyon of the American River made rich deposits, | which were subsequently overiaid by the slow decomposition of rocks, the natural | erosion of the hills and the gradual for- | mation of a vegetable mold. “If the theo-y entertained by the most practical miner, relating to the origin of gold vlacers is to be accepted it would follow that the richest nlacers are to be found where glacial aciion is most recent. This theory has already found applica- tion to the rich placers recently discov- ered on the headwaters of the Yukon. The glacial action which has given topog- cent by from one to two hundred thou- sand vears than the glaciers which carved the canyons on the western flank of the Sierra Nevada Mountains.

They were, therefore, subject to the s: me chaniges, the same glucal action, and with the mineral development of the Yukon we have completed the discovery of gold at short intervals throughout the length of the entire range from tue isthmus to Bering Sea, There are vast undiscovered placersin California overlaid with subsequent deposits irom erosion.

All the gold tak-n out of the earth by the hamau famuly from the beginning (o tbe present time would not make a block of metal equal'in size to an ordirary two-story frame dwelling. It is utterly preposterous to suppose that this small block of metal is all there is in the world. Substances in_the earih have an introactive relation. It is inconceivable that so small a quantity of any given sub- stance coulda form any part or have any place in the construction of a world. “Tne Sierra Nevada Mountains extend practically to the mouth of the Yukon.

Here is what I would take, and it will be found amply sufficient: Twenty pounds of British ships’ biscuit, which may be secured at any first-class erocery; six pounds of sugar in good strong cotton bags of three pounds each, for they can be better packed in a pundle; two pounds of coffee and two pounds of tea; a dozen tin boxes of wax matches; a bar of soap; & tinpail to boil tea or coffee in and use the lid for drinking out of; one tin of salt and pepper; one axe; two pairs of heavy blue woolen blankets; {wo pairs of heavy miners’ boots; two suits of beavy underwesr; a suit of strong oil- skin, such as sailors wear; strong heavy socks and gloves; a pair of smoked giasses; a good heavy revolver; two towels; a tent 10x8; one pick and shovel, and, if possibl:, a heavy india-rubber sleeping-bag. There’s the whole of my kit, which I don’t think would weigh much more than an ordinary soldier's marching outfit. “The rope you would use in binding the outfit wouid serve also for carrying it over your shoulders, and on arrival at your destination be used in erecting your tent. Tbe idea of carrying, or rather packing, flour, bacon, corumeal, rice, oat- meal and other such luxuries, as well as numerous culinary utensils, building tools and superfluous clothing, is all non- sense. “The journey to the frozen North is not near so hard as some people imagine, but for all that I would not advise an unprac- tical man to go there until next spring. A seasoned miner can go there at any time, but the green hand will find it a holy ter- ror before he has tramped the first fifty miles.

From this it appears that the vexed | question as to whether United States troops are to be stationed on the Yukon | has been settled. The North American Trading and Transportation Company’s steamer which sails August 5 is the Cleveland, now on her way from San Francisco end due to arrive to-morrow. That so much of her passenger accommodations will be taken up by the troops may be gratifying to National pride, but it will be rough on those here who hoped to secure transpor- tation by the Cleveland on the easy and comfortable all-steamer route to Dawson City. The pressure on the transportation com- panies for passage to Seattle for Alaska has resulted In an overflow from this place to other points. The steamer Islander, which leaves Victoria to-mor- row for Dyes, will carry about 300 pas- sengers, of whom fully 100 are from Seat- {le and other sound ports. For the past few days the Kingston, the regular| steamer between here and Victeria, has | been loaded with freightand Dasscngers! from th's point for Victoria, being the Klondyke immigrants and their outfits of | supplies. The vexed question as to| whether duty would be charged on outfits shipped over by those gzoing on the Islander has been settled by shipping all such supplies under a bond given by Captain Irving of the Islander that the goods will be discharged in American ters ritory, to wit, Dyea. The further question whether any ate tempt will be made to collect duty on such gcods when they reach the interna- tional boundary line, on Lake Linder- man, acro-s the Chilcoot Pass, remains to be determined. It is not really believed that such zction is contemplated, The horse market is booming bere, and the price of cayuses is rapidly advancing, Indian ponies were a drug on the market a few weeks ago at {rom $2 apiece upward, To-day almost any sound pony wiil com- mand from $20'to $30.

Horse markets have been held on vae cant lots and 1n side streets for the past few days. It has become understood that the facilities for packing across the Chil. coot and White Pass will be totally in. adequate to the demands which will be made upon them, and at present the well- outfitted parties insist on taking with them one or more pouies, 80 as to ve sure that their goods can be got over before the ice forms.and closes the river.
