Special Dispatch to The Call. NEW YORK, March 3L—Although the police of New York and Brooklyn have been searching for him since last Monday, they can find no trace of Wil- liam Churchill, who until last fall was counsel for this Government at Apia, Samoa. He strangely disappeared on Monday from his home, in Brooklyn. His wife, who is prostrated by grief and the effects of an illness that pre- ceded his disappearance, is positive her husband has committed suicide. Churchill returned to Brooklyn al- most penniless because of business re- verses in Samoa. He tried hard, but | was unable to obtain employment. | While in Apia, Mr. Churchill became involved in trouble with the natives. This trouble and his wife's illness| caused him to leave the islands.

Blair’s Estate. Special Dispatch to The Call. SEATTLE, March 31.—The trial of a sensational suit was commenced this afternoon in the Superior Court. John B. Wright, a well-known young lawyer of . is citv. is the plaintiff, and he is suing the administrator of the estate of his rich uncle, Captain Samuel P. Blair of San Francisco, who died last year, upon a note for $25,000. Frank J. Burns is the administrator and he re- sists the payment of the note on the ground that it either was never exe- cuted by the uncle and is a forgery, or was obtained by the nephew from the old man by fraud and deceit. The nephew contends and claims he will be able to prove by a number of crecitable witnesses that the note was given to him by his uncle as compensa- tion for services rendered in the past and to be rendered in the future, in caring for his uncle's property in King County. The Blair estate in King County is worth about $45,000 and in California about $300,000. The plaintiff is a brother of Mrs. Guy G. Phinney of Seattle, whose suit for $100,000 against the Mu- tual Life Insurance Company of New York has become familiar throughout the country. It will come up before the United States Supreme Court next. week for final disposition. The note on which Wright brings suit was presumably made in August, 1895, payable within five years from September, 1894, and is claimed to have been given in lieu of @ note made by Blair to Wright in the fall of 1894, which was by mutual agreement de- stroyed, it having been in Wright's own handwriting and the latter’s law- yers, it is alleged, having advised him printed form. The note is accompanied by a separate written contract in which Wright agrees with Blair that the note shall not mature until three vears after the latter’s death if he shall live be- yond the date of the maturity of note. The contract is signed by Wright's mother, who is Blair's sister, as a wit- ness. The defense claims that the contract, also, was fraudulently obtained or forged. Child Chokes to Death. FRESNO, March 31.—Katie Borgar, the infant daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Alexan- der Borgar, choked to death this morning. The child was playing on the floor and to have the note made out on a regular | is supposed to have swallowed a screw which she had_picked ug. She began to cough, and a few minutes later died in her mother’s arms. The screw is sup- posed to have entered her trachea. ALASKAN RUSH NOW ABATING A Great Falling Off in Travel From the Sound. Steamships Leave Port With but Little of Their Space Occupied. The Cleveland Unable to Obtain Suf- ficient Business to Warrant the Trip. Special Dispatch to The Call TACOMA, March 8L—Travel to Alaska has fallen of tremendously. During the last two weeks arrivals from Eastern States have been fewer than at any time since December, while almost every day has seen another steamship added to the Alaskan fleet. Light passenger and freight lists are resulting in many instances. The steamship Cleveland, owned by Nelson & Co. of San Francisco, was to-day tied at the seawall, the bus- iness offering this week being insuffi- cient to warrant sending her out. It is understood she will remain in port at least ten days. She has made three trips north. under charter by the Washington and Alaska Steamship Company since her wreck on Vancou- ver Island, and is bringing her owners over $400 a day whether running or idle. The popular steamship Seattle, operated by the same company, goes north crowded every trip. The steamship Australia sailed to- night with only 100 passengers from Tacoma and Seattle, though she can carry 600. Her freight is likewise light. It was reported to-day she would be taken off after this trip, but her agents say to-night she will continue running, as the Pacific Coast Steamship Company chartered her six weeks ago for three months from the Oriental and Occidental Steamship Company. The falling off in travel is attributed to dis- couraging reports from the trails and the prospects of war with Spain. oo T LURED BY TALES OF A LAND OF GOLD. Members of the Girder Party Find Themselves Stranded at Aiyansh. VICTORIA, March 31.—J. H. Lovejoy of San Francisco returned by the Bos- cowitz this morning, having made the attempt to get into the Yukon country first by the Stikeen and then by the | Skeena, in each case without success. Lovejoy met the Girder party, which left here on the Boscowitz a few weeks | ago, at Aiyansh, and he brings news which tends to confirm the doubts en- tertained in this city when the party left here, as to the chances of success attending the adventures of the fifty men who placed themselves under Gir- der's guidan expecting, in return for the sum of $75 each, to be niloted to a locality where fabulously rich diggings existed. Girder, who hails from Los Angeles, brought the majority of his party from California, he having by showing them rich samples of ore and dust induced each to pay him $75 to pilot them to the place where the gold was to be found. Lovejoy learned something at Port Simpson, on his way down, which tends to' show that the un- fortunate men are being gulled and de- frauded by Girder. Girder had for some time before starting been in communication with a miner at Port Simpson, and it was from him the nuggets and samples shown by Girder were obtained, Girder himself having no knowledge of the diggings rom which they were taken. ‘When Lovejoy left the unfortunate men at. Aiyansh they had broken into revolt, although until then they had experienced only the easiest part of their trip, that by cance from the mouth of the { keena to the commence- ment of the alleged trail. They were holding meetings daily and threaten- ing Girder with vengeance, and on more than one occasion rope was brought out and the more turbulent ones de- manded that Girder be lynched. Love- joy feared that 1 hen the members of the party learned--as they would as soon as they started from Aiyansh— that the trail was impassable, they will make trouble. Many of the men have not the wherewithal to return, the way forward is blocked and their stock of provisions is, scanty. BEEVES FOR MINERS IN THE YUKON LAND. Fifteen Hundred Cattle to Be Driven to the Gold Fields of the North. SEATTLE, March 31.—C. W. Thebo is now in the city arranging to sup- ply the Yukon country with beef. He and Patrick Galvin, both well known in the valley of the Yukon, have pur- chastd 1500 fat beeves and will take them over the Dalton trail to Fort Selkirk and thence by steamship to the gold fields. The first shipment will be by the barge Skookum, which will start early in May for Haines Mission or Pyramid Harbor. Thebo will have with him not less than seventy-five men in the handling of this immense herd of cattle. Many of them will be men whom he has known on the cattle trails between Montana and California in years gone by. A steamship is now being built at San Francisco for Galvin & Thebo, to be operated on the Upper Yukon River. It will be engaged in carry- ing their livestock from Fort Selkirk. PRIZE-WINNING DOGS.

Accused by a Contractor of Having Obtained Goods by False Pretenses. - Special Dispatch to The Call. FRESNO, March 3L—A complaint was issued this afternoon for the arrest of taining goods under false pretenses. Azhderian is the Armenian who was fore- man of Captain Nevills' vineyard, and who attained notoriety by bringing an action against Nevills for $50,000 damages for, alleged mistreatment and imprison- ment in the Palace hotel in San Fran- cisco. Nevills has had detectives on Azhderian’s trail and it is/said that the arrest of the Armenian was instigated by Nevills. Azhderian claims to have a contract with Captain Nevills whereby the capi- talist was to furnish Azhderian money to put up an opera house in Jamestown upon Azhderian delivering to Nevills a con- tract for the purchase of the lots on which the building was to be erected and also a life insurance policy, to be held as security. Nevills afterward repudi- ‘mted the contract. Azhderian made him a tender of the securities, and then rep- resented to the contractor, named Brow- er, who is the complaining witness in to- day’s action, that everything was satis- factory and that Nevilis would advance Myron H. Azhderian on a charge of ob- money to pay for the building. Brower spent $2800 for labor and material, an¢ when he found Nevills would not pay hs tried to have Azhderian arrested for mis representing the facts to him.
