He sald that while he did not desire to live he had changed his ind for the present and would leave for Stockton on the afternoon boat. % During the afternoon Humiston walked into the Coroner’s office and introducing himself askad for the return of his check. The Coroner declined to recognize him as Humiston. He reminded the visitor that Humiston was legally dead and that therefore he could not be the rightful owner of the check. Then the. alleged suicide was put through a rigorous cross- examination. He told the Coroner that he went to the Tivoll last Tuesday evening and that after he went to room 766 in the hotel, wrote the letter he sent to the Coroner and then took the poison. The upshot of the examination was thas the check remained at the Morgue office for want of proper identification of the owner of it.

The carrier then submits the facts to Major Steele. A de- tall of police waits on the principal and says to him: “Major Steele would like to see you." The principal responds, ‘I have no business with Major Steele and do not know why I should call on him.’ Later on the principal is told firmly but cour- teoualK that he must see Major Steele, and the Interview soon follows. Major Steele asks questfons about the carrier's version of the contract, and if it is shown by all the facts elicited from both parties that the carrier was wronged in the transaction, Major Steele renders a decision in this style, sa‘yln% to the prin- cipal: ‘Pay thi€ man for his time and trouble or we will confiscate your outflr giving one-half to the Government an one-half to the carrier.

The main purpose is to reach the Yukon as early as possible. Some casualties have occurred, but many of the storles concerning the loss of life are without foundation in fact. The re- cent report of the loss of twenty-two lives on the Dyea trail is pronounced false. The stories about a large percent- age of death from spinal meningitis are pronounced untrue by Mr. Berry. Some deaths have occurred from spotted fever, but the proportion is not alarming.

The statement that the Nebraska regi- | ment left one of ity members behind in the City and County Hospital is not quite correct. The young man alluded to is known as Roy Harry Burtan of Omaha, a druggist by profession, and who came | out to this city with the Nebraska regi- | ment as a prospective recruit, but he did not belong to the military in any way. Shortly after his arrival here he’ joined Company C of the California Rangers, an embryo military organization, which has not yet been accepted by either the Federal or State authorities as an at- tachment to the army. The headquar- ters of this organization are located at 328 O'Farrell street, where Burtan lodged last Friday in a deserted hayloft, where he had been for three days without any- thing to eat or drink. His companions | on finding him notified the police, who had him taken to the City and County | Hospital, where Dr. Sussdorff, the su- perintendent, finding him almost at the | brink of death, suffering from pneumo- | nia, placed two nurses to wait on him and besides telegraphed to his parents in | Omaba, who are said to be very respect- | able and well to do. The chances of his recovery yesterday were favorable and he may yet have a flfihtmg chance with the Spanish in Ma- nila. —_———— ROUNDING UP BUNKO MEN.
