SEATTLE S WIDE AWAKE Why the Northern City Gets the Klon- dike Trade. She Advertises Herself Everywhere as “the” Outfitting Point. But Travelers Say That Her Inferiority Is Being Found Out. A CHANCE FOR THIS CITY. George E. Miles and Dr. Hitcheock of Boston Tell a Prog- . nant Tale. In the opinfon of George E. Miles and Dr. W. S. D. Hitchcock, two well- known Boston citizens, on their way | to the Klondike regions, the merchants | of this city are not alive to the busi- ness opportunities that their rivals in Seattle have discovered in the rush for Alaska's golden shores. George E. Miles, who has reached prominence by his cable invention, which is being used in the big library at Washington, as manager for the Mutual Mining and Trading Company of Boston, is staying at the Occidental. Mr. Miles stated yesterday that he was surprised that the merchants of this city have not displayed more energy in advertising their wares, al- lowing Seattle merchants to get the cream of the Klondike traffic. “I came here from Boston with the idea of looking for the best place in which to buy goods and to outiit our company,” said Mr. Miles. “Having heard and read of Seattle as the best | place to buy things, I went there, and | was surprised to find after a long ex- | amination that the goods sold there | were of a very inferior quality. I also | found prices to be higher than they are here. “As I was unable to charter a vessel | at a reasonable figure, I came down to San Francisco and was surprised at the excellence of the outfits and the ealsy time I had in chartering a ves- | sel. “The reason why Seattle i{s getting much of the Klondike trade is because they are extensive advertisers. Boston people contemplating going north en- ter a ralilroad office in their city and are Informed that Seattle is the best place to embark from. On the streets men with placards on their backs and dressed in Klondike outfits parade the streets, advertising Seattle, while not a line about this city is seen. “I learned to-day that bureaus of in- formation were established throughout the Eastern States by your merchants, but not a word was heard from them. “Then again there is very little ad- vertising done in your local papers and | if a person desires to order an outfit he has to walk the streets until he finds a big sign informing him that goods can be purchased there. “There are still many thousands of New England peopie who are going to visit the Alaska regions, and the soon- er the local merchants awaken to the situation the better it will be for them.” Dr. W. S. D. Hitchcock, a well-known physician from the ‘‘Hub,” who will ac- company the expedition, substantiat- ed what Mr. Miles said, and added fur- ther that he intended to lay in a large supply of drugs, which he would buy in this city. He stated that the chances of buying goods cheaper in this city were so good that he telegraphed to Se- attle to two other members of the party 10 come to this city. As an example of the enterprise dis- piayed by the Seattle merchants, he showed telegrams that he had received to the effect that they would journey here if they could do business with him. —_———— “MEMBERS’ NIGHT” AT SANTA CRUZ. 400 Methodists Answer to the Rollcall of the Church.

ILLEGAL DRAWING OF TWO PENSIONS. Greed of a Veteran Leads to His Detection and Conviction in the District Court. NEW YORK, April 20.—A Washington special to the Herald says: Benjamin Dorwart was convicted to-day before Chief Justice Bingham of the District Court on a charge of illegally drawing two pensions. Dorwart was a soldier in the regular army, and as such applied in 1875 for & pension. He was allowed $10 a month. He had also been a volunteer, and in 1889 he applied for a pension for this service. He stated in his application that he was not a pensioner, and the bu- reau took his word for it, although both applications were made out in the same name. The bureau issued to Dorwart an- From that time until February of this year he continued to draw_both pensions, one being paid at the San Francisco agency andplhe other at the Philadelphia agency. Dorwart might have continued to defraud the Government for years had he not made an application in January for an increase in his $17 pension. Then it was found that he was already drawing two pensions. He is suffering from dis- eases of the stomach, is paralyzed in one arm and deaf in one ear. In view of the fact that most of his troubles are due to his army service the jury recommended | facturer.
