SHre | RELIEF EXPEDITION 18 TEMPORARILY ABANDONED. Departure Postponed Owing to Reports Tha Dawson Is in No Danger of Famine. PORTLAND, Jan. 14—General Mer- riam, commanding the Department of the Columbia, this morning received a tele- gram from the War Department instruct- ing him to postpone the departure of the relief expedition to Alas Accordingly the contract to ship the expedition from amship Oregon Janu- ary The pack train is still held at Fort Vancouver, and the drilling of the guard for it will go on. | The orders effect a temporary abandon- ment of the expedition and it is under- stood they were based on the recent re- s that there will be no starvation or ing in the Yukon country that the Government relief expedition® cquld re- lieve. Agent Poston of the Pacific Coast Steamship Company states that his com- ny is glad to be relieved of the con- tract to transport the Government pack train to Alaska, as it has already more business offered than it is possible to handle. The report of Major L. H. Rucker, Fourth Cavalry, Who' was sent to Dyea by the department to ascertain the con- dition of affairs in the Yukon, was re- ceived by General Merriam to-day. From his interviews with those who have come out from Dawson recently, and from his s tions of the Chilkoot and White fajor Rucker concludes: First—That while there is a shortage of s in the Yukon basin, a state of famine not at present exist, mor is it likely to st in the immediate future Second—That a large expedition with quan- tities of supplies hauled on sledges by horses or reindeer could not proceed down the Yukon further than the foot of Lake La Barge, 400 miles from Dawson Third—That reindeer on such an expedition are no more serviceable than mules or horses. Fourth—That if Government assistance conspleuously needed In the Yukon it will be when the stores now in the hands of the peo- ple are exhausted, Which is not likely, from all he can learn. to be earlier than April or May. He, therefore, recommends that if the Snow Locomotive Company, which has a contract with the Government, does not convey the relief into the Yukon during February, the Government pack trains, with sledges, should carry them across Chilkoot pass and down the lakes and rivers to the foot of Lake La Barge dur- ing the month of March, and there await the breaking up of the fce in the Yukon. The supplies could then be taken to Daw- son in boats. The Chicago Snow and Ice Transporta- tion Company, which has a contract with the Government to haul the relief expe- dition supplies from Dyea to Dawson, notified General Merriam to-day that it would be unable to start its snow train into the interior earlier than the middle of February. The contract which the company has with the Government allows that length of time in which to start the expedition. General Merriam has there- fore extended the time of starting the ex- pediticn some time in February. Jartes H. Otis Dead. : SAN JOSE, Jan. l4.—James H.

Each Road to Run From Pyramid Harbor to Points on Lewis River. Spectal Dispatch to The Call. TACOMA, Jan. 14—A railroad build- ing race involving the expenditure of $16,000,000 has been commenced by two wealthy corporations, each of which de- sires to own the first railroad into the Yukon country. Each road <will be about 400 miles long, running from Pyramid Harbor, near the head of Lynn Canal, to points on Lewis River, below Five Finger Rapids. The companies back of the railroad projects are the London Exploration Company, which means the Roths- childs, and the Yukon Company, organ- ized last summer by Andrew F. Bur- leigh, the principal stockholders of which are Philadelphia and New York men. Both corporations have engineers and surveyors at work between Pyra- mid Harbor and the Lewis River. Their efforts at present are confined chiefly to the first sixty miles, which will take the roads over the summit of Chilkoot Pass and down into tie valley beyond. This wiil be the most expen- sive part of the road to build, costing from $25,000 to $40,000 a mile. The pro- jectors of both rcads figure on an aver- age cost of over $20,000 a mile, requir- ing an outlay of over $8,000,000 for each road. The equipment for each will cost about $1,000,000 more. Both companies are actively prepar- ing to send forward materials, and at the same time working to secure the sanction of Congress to their building through American territory. Rights of way from Canada have been obtained. General Manager Dickinson of the Yu- kon Company said to-day: “Yes; there is room on the Dalton trail for two railways, and I believe they will both be built. Mr. Bratnober and the London Exploration Company undoubtedly mean business, and I am sure we do. I belleve there will be two towns on Pyramid Harbor. The Chil- koot Pass is very suitable for a rail- road, the ascent being gradual instead of short and steep, as on other passes. We shall strike the Lewis River below Five Finger Rapids, thus getting be- low all impediments to navigation. We have twelve river steamers and a large number of barges building. After the road is finished these steamers will be operated between its river terminus and points down the river, including Dawson and Circle City. . “The development of Alaska hascom- menced, and will progress from now on on a large scale. The placer gold production will be enormous for five years or more, until the quartz mines begin producing. Then they will leave the placers far behind in produc- tion. I have no doubt that the mother lode of the Klondike has been discov- ered. Its location was pretty well es- tablished by Surveyor Ogilvie of the Dominion Government, and later evi- dence confirms the reports made to and by him. Development of quartz mines will determine where the permanent supply centers will be on the Yukon River, and after that, T have no doubt, rallrcads will be extended into the heart of the country.” The building of roads will require all of this year. By the summer of 1899 Manager Dickinson expects to carry passengers from Sound citles to Daw- son In five days. Big Shipments of Grain. PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 14.—An evening paper says: Big shipments of grain were reported to-day as being scheduled to ar- rive here from Chicago. 1t is coming at a rate which is equivalent to 6 cents a bushel, though the usual rates to Phila- delphia from Chicago is 10.04 cents per bushel. It was gossip among commission men to-day that the wheat was some of Leiter's and was destined as cargoes for those steamers which are under contraet to lm}ld at this port during this and next month. ——— Would Pay Its Indebtedness.

CARSON, Jan. 14—t is now a mat- ter of general belief in Genoa that the | coils of evidence are tightening about those engaged in the lynching of Uber. Witnesses were being examined all day, but owing to the rule adopted by the jury no witness nor juryman is al- lowed to talk of the proceedings in the jury room. It is impossible, however, to prevent some knowledge of what is going on getting out. Henry Johnson, the first witness | called to-day, testified to having been asked by a man to help hang Uber, and he gave the man’s name. Alexander Miller was approached by two men and when he refused he was roundly cursed for declining to join the party. .

It was said yesterday ‘that Mason Crummish, a blacksmith of Gardner- ville, would turn State’s evidence, but he was called before the jury and, it is The impression is that the jury will indict several persons, as it is making an exhaustive investigation and leav- ing nothing undone to bring out the truth.

Most of the jurors are farmers and they have adjourned to meet next It was supposed, that the relatives of Uber in the East would sue Douglas County, but his sister writes to Alf Chartz, the attorney for Uber, that she does not want money for his death, but says that his relatives, who are very religious people, forgive all of the lynchers and leave them to the Al- mighty.

LONDON, Jan. 15—The Rome corre- spondent of the DailyChronicle, in a startling statement this morning, quotes largely from an article in Civilta Catolica, which he declares is directly inspired by the Vatican and the Pope, advocating, as to the solution of the eternal questions between the Vatican and the Quirinal, the establishment an Italian republic. The article, which is based on the Pope’s Christmas allocution, declares that the thing which stands opposed to Papal independence is not Italian unity, but ‘“‘the special and contrite form in which that unity is maintained, with results much more disastrous to the state than to the Holy See.” | _It proceeds to assert that the coexist- ence of the Vatican and the Italian mon- archy is fmpossible, and that one or the other must go. It then suggests the constitutions of Switzerland and America as an example of “admirable and glori- ous constitutions; true union of nation and state, differing from that of Italy, which has produced nothing but weak- ness, misery and starvation.” The article concludes: *““Without the aid of foreign bayonets, the true Italy will find for itself its own way and will rise again, let us hope, from the ignominy in which it now lies prostrate to true great- ness The Dally Chronicle’s correspondent as- serts that this is “an intentional revela- tion to the outer world of the policy ac- tuating_the inner mind of Cardinal Ram- polla (Papal secretary of state).
