THE SA FRANCISCO CALL, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 3 1897. The camp has also been well suppliel with stores and ammunition. According to reliable reports there are 10,000 hostile Orakzais on the hiils sur- | rounding ' Hangu. ~General Yeatman- | Briges bas with him a mountain battery, the Royal Irish Regiment and five native regiments. The Eighteenth Bengal Lancers and the Ninth Field Battery are at Shipwari to cut off the retreat of the enemy. Advices. from Shabkadar say that the Haddes Muilah is threatening the front of that place, where the enemy has col- Jected 1n great mumbers. Colonei Mills, who is in command at Shabkadar, has | at his disposal the Twentieth Punjab | Infantry, the Thirty-ninth Gourkhas, the | Thirteenth Bengal Lancers, 2 battery of field artillery and a wing of the Somerset- | shire Light Infantry. The balance of the | Somersetshire regiment and the Twenty- | sixth Punjab Inlantry are on their way to | re-enforce Colonel Milis at Shabkadar. | CONSTANTINOPLE, TURKEY, Sept. 2. | Afghan Sheik, Said Yabi, who has been | on a visit to this citv, bas been loaded with presents by the Sultan of Turkey, and takes back with him a number of valuable gifts and an antograph letter ad- the dressed by Sulian to the Emir of Afghanistan FRANCE REMEMBERS SED/N. Press and Fublic Recoming HKore Resolute Since the Franco- Russian Treaty. PARIS, Fraxce, Sent. 2 —The attitude of the ¥rench press and public toward Germany is distinctly more resolute than it was before the Franco-Russian alliance was announced. Various rumors concern- ing the Government’s intentions are in circulation. Among others is one to the effect that upon the reassembling of the Chamber " of Deputies M. Hanotaux, Minister of Foreign Affairs, will make an important speech on the subject of the alliance, which will be in the nature of a manifesto and will reveberate through the country, and that the Chamber will immediately adjourn without transacting any further business. It is also reported that the Government intends to dissolve the Chamber and ap- peal to the country in the assurance that ihe popularity of M. Meline’s Cabinet is | so great that the whole radical opposi- | _ tion will be swept away. | The effervescence is apparently due to the German celebration of the anniver- | sary of Sedan day. BERLIN, GErMANY, Sept. 2.—The anni- | versary of the battie of Sedan was cele- | brated here with much less entnusiasm | than usaal, the evidert desire being to di- vest the anniversary of all elements irri- tating to France. Flags.are flying from the public buiid- ings and school children were given a holi- day. Siill smarting under the comple- tion of the Franco-Russian alliance, most of the leadine German papers embrace tue opportunity to convey to France a hint that she must abandon any idea of the restoration of Alsace-Lorraine. ey iy MUCH MONEY FOR FARMEZRS. | A Million Dollars a Day Sent Cut by | Chicago Banks to Hep Move | the Big Grain Crops. CHICAGQ, ILL., Sept 2—At a low esti- mate amillion dollarsa day is the amount of money that is being sent out by the banks of Chicago to help farmers move the big grain, crops which they have be- gun to harvest. Fifteen million dol'arsis a ciose approximation to the sum which has been sent to the West and Southwest during the past two weeks, and yet the movement has only begun. It shows signs of growing in strength every day, and before the monthisat an end bankers will not be surprised to see two or three times as much currency leaving their cof- fers as is going at the present time. Allof this money will get out into the country among the farmers. It will be added to the sums drawn from smaller banks in Western towns, the stores of which have been reduced as low as the bankers are willing to have them, and it will be ready for the farmer to usa in pay- ing off his mortgages, in laying in his win- ter supplies of provisions and adding to bis mechanical equipment, and in pur. chasing luxuries of which he has been forced to deprive himself in past years ana which are his daily testimonials of re- newed prosperity S VISITS THE HAYES TOMB. Fresident KcKinley With His 0id Soldiers Hold Services at the | Grave. FREMON1, Onio, Sept. 2—This was a day of pleasure for President McKinley. | At9 o'clock a breakfast party of inviged | guests of the city was civen at the Hd¥es homestead in the President’s honor. The rest of the day was spent in renew- ing old friendship with his comrades ot | the Twenty-third Ohio and taking part in | the union exercises.

Eighty-two members of the Twenty- third Obio Regiment were here to-day in aitendance at the twentieth annual re. union of the regimental association. In the morning the military and naval par- ade was participated in by companiesand regiments of militia from a!l parts of the State.

Miners’ Board Rejects the Rate Offer of the Pittsburg Operators. It Is the Intention of tha Strikers to Close the North Side Colllerles. COLUMBUS, Onio, Sept. 2 — The National executive board of the United Mine-workers has adjourned till to-mor- row without reaching a conclusion on the proposition of the Pittsburg operators. The board hac a stormy session this after- noon, and there appears to be a decided difference of opinion among the membors as to the best course to pursue. The proposition of the Pittshurg operators applies specificaily to that district, but in effect all other districts are concerned. The proposition is that the Pitisburg operators shall retu-n to work at a 64.cent rate pending arbitration, the conditions of the arbitration to be that the rate for mining shalé not be fixed at more than 69 cents a ton nor less than 60 cents. Under such conditious the miners main- tain that chey would probably not secure throuch arbitration mors than 65 cents. None of the member: wiil discuss the situation and the proceedings of their meeting have been guarded with the ut- most secrecy. Beparate sessions were held to-night by the National executive board of miners and the committee of the Pittsburg opera- tors. The miners’ board agree to reject the proposition of the operators. It ap- | pears that the price to be paid for machine mining is the principal siumbling block. The cperators agree to pay half the price of pick mining for machine mining and the men aemand two-thirds. The men will offer no counter-proposi- tion and the operators’ committee is not empowered to make a new one. :Another joint conference will be held to-morrow. PITTSBURG, Pa., Bept. 2.—Judging from surface indications it seems reason- ably certain that President Ratchford of tbe United Mine-workers and his col- leagues in oftice will reject the offer of the operatorsto return to work at the 6i-cent rate pending arbitration. Great inflaence has been brovght to bear upon the strike leaders from this district to induce them to assume such an attitnde. The senti- ment among the miners here is solid for a 69-cent rate or nothing. All the local labor leaders here have advised strongly for a cor:tinuation of the fizht along the present lines 1o the bitter end. HAZELTON, Pa., Sept. 2—The strik- ing miners held a meeting at McAdoo to- night and decided to continue marching through the region in the morning. They intend stopping all the collieries on the north side. SEIED BY CARADIAN * FFICIALS Continued from First Page. trail whee!barrows and boats were found broken aad abandoned. Thess vehicles were dragged gleefully through the streets of Juneau a few weeks ago as the easy solution of the difficulties ¢f mountain trails. From tide-water at Dyea to the ferry outfits are pulied up the swift river in boats with long ropes from the banks, hauled in the few wagons or carried on vack horses. Indians carrying heavy packs will make the round trip to Linderman and back to Dyea in two days. The climb 10 the snm- mit is a harder barrier to conquer than anything found on the Skaguay trail. and the exertion to get over it necessarily very great. Postmaster Herron here estimates that 5000 have gone over the Dyea trail and Chilcoot Pass since the season opened early last spring. One-third of the people | on both trails are going to Stewart River, and not to the Klondike. Hav HorrMax. Sl THREE DAYS OVERDUE. But Officers of the Pacific Coast Steamship Company Are Not Uneasy About the AI-KI. SEATTLE, WasH., Sept. 2—The Pacific Coast Bteamship Company’s steamer Al- Ki is now three days overdue irom The Al-Ki reached just before the Farallon cailed, but she Js a much faster boat, end allowing twenty-four hours to discharge her cargo she should have arrived here atleast two days berore the Farallon. The company’s agents profess to feel no uneasiness, and account for her non-arrival by the report brought by the Farallon of high winas at Dyea. They say this would prevent her from dis. charging.

SEATTLE, Wassn., Sept. 2—The corre- spondent of the Post-Intelligencer writes under date of August 25 from Skaguay trail as follows: E “The continued downfall of rain for the past three days bas discouraged many oi the poor men and has caused them to dis- pose of the things they had at the best figures they could get and to re!race their steps almost heartbroken. Very, very few even think of leaving Bkaguay who bave not done so already, for upon goinga short distance up the trail they know they can never make it. No one is sure of reaching the lake. “The mud isfrom four inches to four feet aeep all along the trail. To-day we kelped to pull two men out of the mud who, with packs on their backs, had be- come mired up to their waists, and with- out help they say they never could have got out. Over the four miles of trail which we went to-day with our horses, which, by the way, took us over ten hours to go and return, I saw three horses mired down 1n the mud and rather than leave them tosuffer they were shot. *“We went over parts of the trail to-gay | veyed to St. Michaels where the rains had all but washed it - away, and if the horses -had taken even one step to the side they would have fal- len over a cliff hundreds of feet below. “On the way back we saw a Seattle man lead his poor, worn-out horse 1o the edge of a very high cliff, place the muzzle of his gun to his ear and fire. The horse fell head down, turning a complete somer- sault, and rolled over and over down into the river 1000 feet or more below. The owner said: ‘He isno good and is worn out; I can’t afford to keep him." Bo it is ail along the trail, 2nd for this reason 1 claim no one is sure of getting tbrough, for as soon as a man loses his horse he loses all hope, and well he might, for | without this faithful animsl he is bound to camp on the trail during the winter. “Men as packers are in great demand. They are receiving from $6 to $10 per dzy and board. The work is very hard. They require a maa to carry 100 pounds to the load, and to keep it up aliday through the mud and rain. A person cannot stand 1t long. A great many are cutting down their suoplies to barely enough to carry them over the winter, and are pushing on to the Jake post haste to zet down the river before snow flies. Every man in our party is as determined as ever, as far as 1 know, to go turough, unlesssickness over- takes us or we suffer the loss of our horses.” —_— GOING AFTER THE GOLD. One wiil Hundred Passengers Leavs on the Farallon for Bleak Skaguay. SEATTLE, WasH., Sept. 2.—After the steamer Farallon got into port this morn- ing about 1 o’clock she immediately went to the coal bunkers for fuel so asto be ready for loading after daylight.

Oua board wiil be nearly 100 passengers, including fifieen of the Thorp party, which is taking in ninety | head of cattle and thirty-two horses. They will go to Dawson City via the Daulton trail. Although the excdus of gold-hunters to Alaska has materially decreased there continues to be a large influx of strangers into Beattle. This morning on the Great Northern overland train there were by | actual count twenty-eight Easterners who stated that they had been drawn West by | the gold excitement. All expected to go | north into tbe Yukon country, but they | were all undecided as to whether to make the start now or remain in Seattle until spring, Reports received during the past | few days has had a tendency to discour- age them from making the attempt to go north this fall. To-day ex-Judge R. A. Ballinger, F. H. | Piercy and S. N. Ballinger filed articles of incorporation sor the “Yukon line,”’ to handle steamers, wagons and boats in pursuit of gold. The capital stock is §10,000. Articles of incorporation were also filed for the Alaska Gold Mining and Trading Company, with a capital stock of $250.000. The trustees are R. A. Wright, James A. McChee, George S. Casedy, H. C. Munger, L. W. Long and C. A. Spear. —_—— MAIL ONCE A MONTH. Formal Order Issued by the Post- office Department for Service in the Gold Region. WASHINGTON, D.

SEATTLE, Wasn., Sept. 2.—-The ireas. ure-ship Portland was successfully docked this morning at the Puget Sound naval station, under the supervition of Superin- tending Constructor Lawrence Spear, U. 8. N. The high tide made the closing of the caisson a task of considerable dolicacy, and it was after noon before the pumps began to draw off the water. Belore 6 o’clock this evening the Portland was high and dry. ‘While on the dock the Maxim gun re- cently purchased will be motinted on the starboard side of the forward deck.

Labor Leaders Approve of the ‘““New Era Union,” as It Is Called. DENVER, Coro., Sept. 2. — Charles W. Caryl of this city will attend the meeting of labor leaders in Chicago on September | 24 and place before it a gigantic scheme which he believes will solve the labor question quickly and easily. He submitted his plan to a meeting of representatives of lsbor unions to-night, and they received general nnprovpl. Mr. Cargl is a prominent mining man, and it is claimed that his standing with Eastern capitalists has made it possible to enlist almost any desired amount of money in enterprises in which he has heretofore been engaged. Mr. Caryl proposes to incorporate a com- pany with a capital of $10,000,000, which is to engage in all kinds of productive .in- dustry. Stock is to be sold at par and money is also to be raisea by the sale of bonds, due 1n twenty-five years, bearing 6 per cent interest and payable in gold. Dividends on the stock are to be limited to 8 per cent per annum, net income, all above this and the interest on the bonds to be given to the employes of the com- pany. The transactions between the members is to be largely carried on with | ks issued by the company.

ENDURANCE CF ERONCOS. Long Trip !a_Tamnatmta What Their Value Would Be to European Cavalry. CHICAGO, ILL., Sept. 2.—Bertand Will Gebriel, cowboys, traveling on ' horseback from Sheridan, Wyo., where their father has a horse ranch, to Chicago, ar- rived -at Dubuque, Iowa, to-day at 11 o'clock and left for Chicago at noon. They have covered a distance of about | 2000 miles on their broncos, the purpose being to let the Secretary of Agriculture ‘know the powers of endurance of those little beasts. The speed attained has heen about twenty miles a day, but tbatis not so remarkable as the fact that no feed was carried or obtained for them during the entire trip. The bronchos picked their own fodder where they could find it along the way, ana are said to appear as fresh as when they started. The Secretary’s. idea is to demonstrate the advantage the Amercan broncho would te to Enropean cavalry. The rumor which has been current for several days that officers of the English | army have been buying horses here for troops in India proves to be unfounded. “The rumor probably grew out of the fact that some time ago a small number of ‘weedy’ racehorses were bought here for the German army,”’ said Thomas Har- rison, one of the best-informed dealers in horses at the siockyards. “England supplies her troops in India with horses from Australia. They are similar to American mustangs, but are larger in size. They can be bougnt and delivered in India cheaper than Amorican horses.” - TROUBLES OF 7TRHE HOFPPERS. The Littla Actress Will Mhortly File Papers For a Divorcr. NEw YORK, N. Y., Sept. 2.—The Her- ald this morning says: Mrs. de Wolf Hopper is about to institute proceedings for divorce from her husband, the well- known comic opera star. 1t has been no secret that for quite a while the tall comedian and. his petite wife have not been on exactly the teérms it is popularly supposed happily married couples always are. In San Francisco they did not stop at the same hotel. When the I#st season cltosed Mr. Hopper went on a driving tour and when he returned he tvok rooms at the Lamb Club, where be still resides. Mrs. Hopper makes her abode at the Gerard. Now that Mrs. Hopper has de- cided to act she has put her casein the nands ot her lawyers. .The papers have all been drawn up snd will very shortly be filed in court. The suit will be pushed | to an early conclusion. The ground upon which Mrs. Hopper bases her claim for a decree of divorce is frequently claimed as the foundation for suits of lgls character. The relations ex- isting between Mir. and Mrs. Hopper, it must be noted, are two fold. T e business as well as domestic divorce proceedings abiut to be instituted will not affect the former. Mrs. Hopper has a contract with Ben Stevens, manager of ner busbana’s company, to remain in that organization during the ensuing sea- son, and 1t is her present intention to carry it out, distasteful even as the asso- ciations may be 10 her. Mrs. ae Wolf Hopper is a native of San | Francisco and firs. made a reputation for ! herself as a comedienne of ability in *“The Girl 1 Left Bennd Me” at the Empire, known as Miss Edna Wallace, In 1863 she married Hopper. froiter >N LARGEST IN OUR HISTORY.

They Complain of Shabby Treatment at the Hands of the Military Kuthorities. MONTREAL, Queskc, Sept. = surgery section of the British Medical As- sociation, Dr. Mitchell Banks of Lwe{- pool delivered an address on surgery this afternoon. It was a fascinatinely histori- cal resume of surgery from the earliést times. He sketched some of e 1ost notable work done of old by a body of members of ‘the profession “who “have never received their due reward—those, namely, who have devoted their lives to the succer of the sick and the wounded In war.” - He said in conclusion: “To day her Majesty’s Government can- not induce candidates to come forward for the medical service of the Queen’s army. And why? :Because it has persistently treated the " army medical department meanly and shabbily. To-day the Gov: ernment of India can secure the services of the pick of our newly fledged doctors for its army.. And why? Because it has always treated the Indisn medical service liberally and generously. 1 am’'not going to enter into the reasons for this.

He took ‘up the ques- tion of the effect cf the domicile on na- tionality and asked the commission to consider that the claims were not ingi- vidual but national. Mr. Bodwell termed asabsurd the ciaims-of ‘the United States brief that the money awarded by the com< mission would be paid te the Gueen of England as trustee. - He claimed t(hat the Queen received such money as ‘& preroga- uve to be paid aver to the individuals who had suffered. Mr. Bodwell contended that: the gues- tion of compensation to individuals de- pended on damage done by seizures, and the assumine of the rights of Eogland by the United States must also be taken into consideration. He argued that unless England could show international wrong she would not bave any case, how- ever great the damage. There was no diss tinetion between one individual and an- other in_the claim. ~Any person domi- ciled 1n British territory and owing Eng- lish allegiance has the right of the protec- tion of the crown. Mr. Dickinson remarked that the British Government, in all its cases, did not ne- glact 1o press its claims in regard to the individuals. Mr. Boawell, answering, stated that the commission had beeén established by a written agreement and that the commis- sion would have tc consult that docum to ascertain its positions. The question were on international law and thespedker contendad that as such the claims would have 1o be decided. He claimed as a sec- ond step that the domicile of an indi. vidual decided his nationality. 2.—In the L Wilt 6o to Darmstadt, BERLIN, GErMANY, Sept. 2.—A news- paper of this city announces that the Czar and Czarina will go to Darmstadt about the middle of Beptember and remain there ten days.
