I met one man—named Kegwin, of Fresno, Cal.—who, With 2 party of | twenty men and fifty pack horses, started out over it a year ago last July, and it took them a year's hard travel- ing to reach Fort Graham. They must have experienced a terrible time. Start- ing out in the summer they, of course, took pack horses. Then winter over- took them and they saw their poor ani- mals die off one by one through starva- tion and cold. The party could get no fodder, and the stories about good pas- ture lands proved myths. Kegwin told me that when he reached Fort Graham he had only one horse left out of fifty. The expenses of the party must have been enormous. They winter at Fort Graham and early the next spring will strike west to prospect Pelly, Black and Liard Rivers, where they think they will find gold enough to pay them for their terrible trip. Their great complaint about the Edmonton route Is the great distance and the innumerable small lakes and streams that have to be crossed. Kegwin cursed the route as a fraud and a delusion. Mr. Peck and his party lost nearly everything in addition to experiencing the many horrors of the trail. They started for Los Angeles to-night. Many Americans, including two large Cali- fornian parties whose names they can- not recollect, are, they say, stalled on the Edmonton trail and will have to get help before winter sets in or die| like dogs, as they have lost most of their outfits. | e ARRIVES WITH DAWSONITES. Steam Schooner Rival Brings Miners and Their Gold. SEATTLE, Oct. — The steam schooner Rival arrived this afternoon from St. Michael, Alaska, with 125 pas- sengers, of whom about fifty were from Dawson City. Nearly all had small amounts of gold dust, ranging from a They took | few hundred to a few thousand dollars. F. J. Teeter, who will tell no one whence he came beyond the fact that he was away up In the Arctic, is sup- posed to have a lot of gold. Accord- deal coming down on the boat. Thomas Barker, who is accompanied by his wife and two children, is the owner of some claims near Circle City. He Is credited with $10,000. John < G. Green, who has been in Alaska since 1881, is the owner of a sil- ver mine near Golovin Bay. Mr. Green does not have a very favorable opin- fon of the recent gold discoveries on Golovin Bay. One of the most interesting passen- gers on the Rival was Frank J. Dun- levy, who has v ed all the big min- ing camps of the world. Dunlevy was the organizer of the Miners’ Associa- | tion, formed for the purpose of secur- ing what they considered needed re- forms in the administration of the Yu- kon. Dunlevy says that he will visit all the principal cities in Canada, with the purpose of arousing the electors to the necessity of a Parliamentary in- vestigation. When shown the dis- patch from Ottawa stating that Gold Commissioner Fawcett had been re- moved, Mr. Dunlevy satd: “That will be welcome news to the miners, who, although they do not im. pugn Fawcett's honesty, regard him as inefficient and lacking in executive ca- pacity.” Continuing, he said: ‘“The removal of Fawcett, however, will not satisfy the miners. If certain abuses in the way of granting concessions to indi- viduals are not corrected I predict that not to exceed $1,000,000 in gold will be taken out of the country next vear.” | He sends an urgent appeal | clothing. | conference witl | decided whether o] | battalion of the FOOD FOR CUBA'S STARVING PEOPLE General Wood’s Labor of Mercy- ALLEVIATING THE DISTRESS SITUATION SERIOUS AROUND SANTIAGO.

SANTIAGO DE CUBA, Oct. 8.—Re- ports to-night from Cuban leaders state that many cases of outlawry have oc- curred in Camaguey district.

ORGANIZE TO WAR * , ON TEXAS FEVER Stockmen of Solano County Form & Cattle Protective Asso- | ciation. | SUISUN, Oct. 8.—Stockmen in Solano | County are determined to take every pos- sible step to eradicate the disease known as Texas fever that has caused mortality among thelr herds. They also will en- | deavor to prevent its recurrence in the county. To this end an organization has been formed, which will be known as the Solano County Cattle Protective As- | sociation. The officers elected are: Sam- uel Stewart, president; B. F. Rush, vice | president; E. J. Okell, secretary, and R. ). Robbins, treasurer. All the prominent cattiemen in the county are included on | the membership roll. This is considered the first step toward a State organization of the kind, having for its object the framing of the laws necessary for a proper protection of the stock raising industry. Since an out- break of anthrax has apeared in Yolo County it {s thought the stockmen there will second the efforts of Solano County in giving more attention to the guaran- tine laws. Dr. Blemer, United States in- ‘ spector, has visited Solano. and spoke ap- provingly of the organization formed, and of the dipping process being carried out | to check the spread of Texas fever. No | fresh outbreaks of the disease have been | reported during the past week. ACRAMENTO, Oct. S.—Farmers and stockmen fn the Galt district are alarmed | over the fatal disease known as anthrax among their herds. During the pest few weeks Solomon Kreeger, a farmer of this vicinity, lost ten head of cattle from | anthrax, and V. S. Quiggle lost three | head. It is only within the past few weeks that the disease made its appeéar- ance. County Veterinary Inspector Fox | said that the facts were of incidental im- ;gurtance. although, the health office not | having been informed, it was impossible to determine what the resuit would be. e MINOR DAMAGE TO FRUIT BY THE RAIN If the Showers Continue Grapes on the Vine Will Suffer Seriously. SAN JOSE, Oct. 8.—At the meeting of the San Jose Grange to-day the opinion | was expressed that but minor damage bad been done to fruit so far by the rain. If, however, the rain and warm weather continue, the fruit on the trays and the apes on the vine will be seriousiy In- ured. The rain for the storm amounted {10 .25 of an inch, and for the season to | date to 183 inches. To_the same cate last vear it was .03. # SUISUN N, Oct. 8.—Heavy rains prevailed throughout Solano County yesterday and to-day. Great benefit will result there- from, and grazing facilities have been es- pecially improved and increased.

Dr. and Mrs. Mentzer formerly lived in Denver. She le. him on account of his cruelty and obtalned a divorce in Chicago.
