BY HAL HOFFMAN.’ Special Dispatch to The Call. JUNEAU, Alaska, Oct. 10 (By steam- ship Farallon to Port Townsend, Oct. 16).—Every southbound boat is either crowded or well filled with incoming { Klondikers, and despite the rush back to the States the steamboats have re- duced the fare to Puget Sound less | than one-half. | Among the latest arrivals is Alex- | ander McDonald, “King of the Klon- dike.” He is visiting old friends over at Douglas Island (Treadwell gold | mines). McDonald arrived at Juneau | about two years ago with only $3 50 in | his pocket from Aspinwall, where he | had been a miner and mine owner | about twelve years. He worked there {in silver mines and the depreciation in | the price of silver took away his for- tune. Then he decided to try mining in Alaska. McDonald was so poor at that time that he was compelled to | ask the consideration of Messrs. Olds | and Orton, proprietors of a hotel here, and they being old miners readily | | granted it. He went to work for wages in the Treadwell mines. For several months he had sav~d considerable money and left for the Yukon Valley. That was the beginning of McDonald's fortune. He got to the Klondike short- |1y after the first locations were made. | | At the time he was mining a claim on Miller Creek, near Forty Mile. He THE MOHEGAN WITH HER PROPER ] She never ran for the Fur- | 1 only made one voyage | This, it is asserted, was factory, and friends of the crew say her engines were defective and that her boilers leaked. She is fur- ther acknowledged to have arrived at New York in such a condition that she was sent home empty, and her re- turn voyage took several weeks, during which- she drifted a whole day and night, owing to the trouble with her engines. For the past two weeks the steamer has been in dock undergoing repairs, but the managers say she was in per- fect condition when she left port on this her first voyage under her new name. It is asserted, however, that in a twenty-four hour trial last week | her performances were Very unsatis- factory and the crew did not wish to go on her on account of the previous | defect in her engines. It is surmised here that the engines broke down and that the ves in the rough sea and heavy gale which prevalled, drifted on the rocks. The wrecked steamer was command- | ed by Captain Griffiths. Her chief of-| ficer was Mr. Couch, her second officer Mr. Cole, and her third officer Mr. Hindmarsh. NEW YORK, Oct. 15.—The office of the Atlantic Transport line was crowd- ed to-day with peopleinquiring anx- line shipyard. n ut Henry Morrison, an elderly lawyer, inquired about his son, Henry Morrison Jr., and his step-daughter, Miss Han- nah Hart.

Harring- ton and D. J. O'Neill are from Phila- delphia; Mrs. Grinbecht ‘and F. W. Lockwood of Stamford, Conn., and R. A. Baxter of Surrey, England. The Mohegan was originally intended to sail on the 6th inst. and the Manitoba on the 13th, but the company for some reason substituted the Mohegan for the a. sengers. bt HOW GEOREE SMITH _ REACHED THE SHORE FALMOUTH, Oct. 15.—A. George L. Smith, a first cabin passenger, who says | fie belorigs to Guilford, but who had | been engaged in farming in the United | States for ten years, is another of the | survivors. He said: “During the panic I jumped over- board, swam about an hour and reached a rock. I tried to climb on it, but the waves were too strong. I afterward ‘found’' a raft with a sail on it, and I heid up the sail with one arm and floated toward the shore. “While on the raft I was washed right over one rock. Happily I had on a lifebelt and recovered the raft, which then struck another rock, to which I held fast for some time. Af- terward I swam ashore, the land be- ing only a short distance away from the rock to which I was clinging. “Only the smokestack and the fore- mast of the Mohegan can be seen above water.” /A FANNY DAVENPORT'S i WILL MAY BE CONTESTED Make the Husband Act Very Generously. NEW YORK, Oct. 15.—A Boston special | to the Herald says: It is generally be- | lieved here that the dissatisfaction of | relatives with Miss' Fanny Davenport's will cannot fail to soon find some public | manifestation. It is also said that the | armed neutrality which was maintained | between the husband and sisters durin The actress” long. sickness was suspended after the funeral, "and ‘that relatives caused all the drawers in the house in | South Duxbury to be closed and sealed. | This alleged open distrust of Mr. Mec- Dowell is said to have vexed him greatly and certainly will not make him any | more likely to interpret the testatrix’s | intentions more liberally than if such a | precautionary move had not been taken. | It is believed that a contest will be made | against_the will and that it will be led | by the Seymour interes GEORGE MAULE'S STORY OF THE WRECK FALMOUTH, Oct. 15.—One of the survivors, Mr. George Maule of New York, was interviewed after he had suf- ficienty recovered to be able to tell the story of the wreck. He said: “I am a shipper of horses employed | by the American Transport Company. | We left London on Thursday and all went well until 7 o'clock yesterday | evening, when most of the passengers | were at dinner. The steamer was go- ing at full speed, when suddenly we | heard 2 loud crash, which seemed to | denote that we had collided with some | other vessel. But when we rushed on deck we found that the Mohegan was on the rocks between the Manacles and the Lowlands, in the vicinity of the Lizard. “Orders were given immediately to lower the boats and the crew of the steamer behaved like heroes. Her cap- tain stood on the bridge and the great- | est order prevailed among the officers | and crew. | “The steamer, however, immediately | began to settle by the head. Two boats | were launched. The women were sent away in the first boat. But whether | these reached land or not I do not know. “I managed to secure a life belt and jumped overboard in company with the chief officer of the Mohegan, Mr. Couch. He made me take off my coat andshoes. | Soon after that we were parted from each other. When I was leaving the vessel a little girl begged piteously that I try to save her as she did not want to die yet. I was powerless to help her. “Evenually I caught hold of a plank which was floating on the water and I clung to it for seven and a half hours. At the expiration of that time I was picked up by a tug. I could not have lasted much longer. “I cannot explain how the accident occurred. The whole matter is not very clear to me.” OFFICERS AND CREW NUMBERED NINETY-SIX LONDON, Oct. 15.—The pfficers and crew of the Mohegan numbered ninety-six, and of these thirty-three are known to have been saved. The body of A. Baxter, one of the passengers, has been recovered. Among those who are still missing are Mrs. S. C. Crane, belleved to be the wife of Stephen Crane, the novelist. Miss Rondebush is the American oper- atic singer, professionally known as Maud Rounds. She telegraphed to a relative in London to-day saying: “Shipwrecked. Mother dead.” FATHER AND DAUGHTER AMONG THE MISSING NEW YORK, Oct. 15.—F. W. Lockwood and Mrs. Amelia Grumbrecht, whose names appear on the list of the Mohe- gan's passengers as mlsslng, are father and daughter. They. reside in Stam- ford, Conn., where Mrs. Lockwood 18 now. Mr. 'Lockwood has for the gu! twenty years been associated with the Standard Oil Company, and has for the past few years acted as the company’s foreign rep- resentative. DRIVEN INTO PORT BY A STRONG SIROCCO| Imperial Yacht Hohenzollern With ‘William Aboard Anchors at Zante. ZANTE, Ionian Islands, Oct. 15.—The imperial yacht Hohenzollern, having on board the Emperor and Empress of Ger- many and their suites, has put into the herbor owing to the fact that a strong sirocco is blowing. The yacht will re- main here until the gale has abated. All | the members of the imperial party are in good health. . Sl Oregon Legislature Adjourns. SALEM, Or., Oct. 15.—The special ses- sfon of the Legislature adjourned sine die threw down his pick and left the cabin | on Miller Creek as it stood, though the | ground was paying wages. It was his knowledge of mining and his confidence in himself which brought his success as a miner and as .n operator on the Klondike. He owns more claims than any other man in Dawson, and only one or two poor ones. There is quite a difference between the Alexander Mc- Donald who arrived at Juneau and Treadwell two years ago and the Alex- ander McDonald who is now shaking hands ‘with old and less fortunate friends, tqr to-day his fortune is esti- mated at 'elose to $5,000,000, and ail in gold, and In about the safedt bank in | the world—the earth. He is modest and unassuming, quiet and unobtru- sive. He still looks like ninety-nine out of 100 prospectors. McDonald was born in Antigonish County, Nova Sco- | tia, in November, 1854. He is golng to London, England, with his confidential | man and partner in some of the claims, Ronald Morrison. The steamer from Dawson could not get up the river farther than Rink Rapids, and McDon. ald and others had to pole un tne river from that point to Lake Bennett in a small boat. He expects to go East by way of San Francisco. Slush ice is creating trouble on the Yukon and Lewis rivers. The small steamers are now afraid to attempt the trip, as they cannot tell what day they may be frozen. The slush ice freezes to the sides of the hulk, making navi- gation very slow and laborious. This ice accumulates to such an extent that it must be broken away with picks and axes. As many of these boats as can will winter at Lake Bennett, in order to take their choice of runs between Dawson and the new diggings at Lake Atlin, according as the crowd goes next spring. Bill Gates, otherwise “Swiftwater Bill,” is said to be on the river bound out. There are reports of rich strikes of gold on the Stewart and Pelly rivers, but as yet they are unconfirmed here. The situation with reference to claims at the new Atlin Lake diggings is be- coming more complicated. A large number of locations have been jumped and the stakes removed or changed. It seems that the reauirement of the Brit- ish Columbia law that two weeks' work must be put in on each claim before the closed season begun, September 15, was not complied with in very many In. stances. This left the way open for others to jump the 'ncations, do the two weeks' work and place themselves in a position to legally record them when the season reonens June 1 next. This complication will retard shat lit. tle winter work may be possible to get things in shape for spring slui¢ing. There are uncorroborated reports of new strikes. Nothing further has been heard from the caravan of horses and men which left Lake Teslin for Lake{ Atlin a few weeks ago. The recorder says that the Atlin City townsite will be a Government reservation, and that town lots and municipal privileges for public accommodation will be leased. McKenna is the name of the new re- corder. “J. Brunser and wife,” the latter be- ing Mrs. Francois .Pigon-Mrs. Magal- lan, nee Reiffel of San Francisco, who failed to secure a divorce here, sailed on the last southbound steamship City of Topeka, probably on their return to San Francisco. The steamer Pilgrim, bound from Skaguay to Juneau, went ashore in a storm last Friday on the Seward City reef, near where the Clara Nevada was lost last winter, and is reported to be a total loss. No lives were lost. The Farallon carries south to-night about eighty Klondikers, who, notwith- standing the slush ice and the heavily falling snow, succeeded, after consider- able delay, in getting up the river. Alex McDonald takes this ship south. He, Ronald Morrison and others represent a total Klondike value cf ten million dollars. Mr. McDonald has with him certified checks for $150,000, and one hundred ounces of gold dust, worth at Dawson, at a valuation of $16 an ounce, nearly $20,000. No finer specimens of nuggets or purer fine gold ever came out of the Klondike. Mr. McDonald takes this weight of gold with him simply as a sample to exhibit to the very curious while en route to London ahd in the world’s financial center when he arrives there. The general comment about this financially regal personage as he was seen on the streets and in the hotels here to-night was: “He looks the least like any kind of a King that I ever saw,” and he does. This newest of the new millionaires is not less than six feet tall, nearly 50 to-night, after having passed the f!nerul appropriation bill which carries $1,300,000. years of age and rather slow and un- bending in manner—unbending not A from lack of cordiality but from lack of practice in bowing in spiketail coats, high collars and. “biled” shirts. He will wear when he gets to_ ‘‘civiliza- tion,” as he does now, a broad-brimmed white felt hat, a brown wool shirt, a brown coat, trousers of a bluish tinge and tall lace boots. He said he did not care much about notoriety, and guessed that a goad deal more had been printed: about him than he had ever seen. Thomas Jackson, who once was a dishwasher in a restaurant in Juneau, has been into the new diggings at Lake Atlin and is going below on the next ship. He was in with the first rush and comes out with $2000, the result of a few weeks’ cleanup without sluice- boxes. Jaekson and partner, raised by their streak of luck from lowly posi- tion to one of affluence and great pros- pects, own the town te-night, next to McDonald, and are celebrating their sudden elevation in an entirely different way than the five-time millionalre They have had a crowd drinking at their expense for three hours. FUNERAL OF QUEEN LOUISE OF DENMARK Imperial Mourners Follow the Coffin to the Chapel of Frederick V. COPENHAGEN, Oct. 15.—The funeral services over the remains of Queen Louise of Denmark took place at 2 o'clock this afternoon in the cathedral of Roskilde. The King of Denmark, the Czar of Russia, the Princess of Wales and all the imperial and royal mourners arrived there by special train at 1:45 p. m. They drove to the cathedral, which was filled with a_distinguished company. The King of Denmark, who was greatly affected, followed the goffin. Then came the King of Greece, the Crown Prince of Denmark, King Oscar of Sweden and Norway and others in full uniform. The contrasting colors of the uniforms formed a striking picture. All took seats in the church. with the ladies of the party. At the conclusion of the services the coffin was borne with the same ceremony to the Chapel of Frederick V. where the final rites were performed. ’ggclfnourners then returned to Bernstorff stle. ADDITIONAL ARRESTS OF ANARCHIST PLOTTERS What the Bombs Contained That Were Intended to Destroy Emperor William. ALEXANDRIA, Egypt, Oct. 15.—Sev- eral additional arrests have been made in connection with the plot against Em- peror William, who is now on his way to the Holy Land to be present at the con- secration of the Church of the Savior at Jerusalem. The explosive in the bombs was fulmin- ate of mercury. Another box of bombs was found upon a table in the residence of the cafekeeper who was arrested Thursday morning. With the box were two bottles of wine and a quantity of provisions, as though they had been pre- pared for a traveler. They were prob- ably intended to be taken by one of the conspirators taken into custody, who had engaged a place as a waiter in a hotel at erusalem, and had secured passage on fi Kheviedeh liner sailing for Jaffa to- ay. NOT ON THE BALLOT. Chicago Platform Democracy Shut Out Through a Notary’s Mistake. ALBANY, N. Y, Oct. 15—The State ticket of the Chicago platform of the De- mocracy will not go on the official ballot. The certificate placing this independent ticket in the field was received by the | Secretary of State at 11 o'clock last night, and in_examining it he found the mrst urat of the notary public on the Ulster | Sounty petition defective, and notified the committee, The error was not corrected | before the time for filing expired at mid- night, so the Secretary of State has ruied that the whole certificate is defective and nsl nominees cannot go on the official ballot.

Then you bowl at nine-pins, and a cat has nine lives.” “Nonsense,” broke in another. “Seven is the magic number. Seventh heaven, don’t you know, and all that. Seven colors in the rainbow; seven days in the week; seventh son of a seventh son —great fellow; and—" “Push, tush,” remarked a third. “Five's the nuimber you mean. A man has five fingers on his hand and five toes on his foot and he has five senses; and—" “Three is undoubtedly. the magic number,” interrupted another, ‘‘because people give three cheers, and Jonah was inside a whale three days and three nights, and if at first you don’t suc- ceed, try, try again—three times, you see.” This was received with some con- tempt by the company and-a soulful youth gushed out: “Two, oh, two is the magic number. One’s self and one other. The adored one. Just us two.” A hard-featured individual, who had been listening to the conversation hith- erto unmoved, here remarked in a harsh voice: “The magic number is number one in this world, and if you want to succeed never forget it.” An interval of deep thought on the part of all followed, after which they went in silently to supper.—Brooklyn Citizen. —_————— POSTOFFICE ODDITIES. There is something very touching in the confidence of the public in the owers and sagacity of the Postoffice cpartment. A correspondent once ad- dressed a letter thus: “To the gentleman who looked at a house near Cleobury Mortimer a little time ago, Bilston, Staffordshire.” ‘Within four days of the arrival-of the communication the department succeeded in finding the gentleman, and duly deliv- ered the letter. The department, however, had to con- fess -itself beaten by the request of an old lady of Greenock, who wrote out a telegram to her home to say that she should not be home till morning, and asked that the latchkey should be sent together with the electric message. Another disappointed applicant was a young man who entered the Northampton postofice and asked at the counter for a marriage license, stating that he wished to get married without any one knowing it. It was a long time before he could be persuaded that the sale of marriage li- censes helonged to another department of the administration, and that hte postoffice whaa powerless to help him.—London Ex- change.

PARIS, Oct. 15—The anti-revision papers regard the reported discovery of a military plot against the Government as being pure invention.

LOUIS, Oct. 15.—Mr. Mills re- ceived a telegram late this afternoon from the Chicago-Virden Coal Company at Virden, Ili., telling him to keep the fifty-seven negro miners here, the coal company to pay the expense. The tele- gram said that the negroes would be kept in St. Louis until protection for them at Virden could be had, and that they would then be taken there and put to work in the mines at that place.
