Diggings When It Would Be as Profitable and More Com- fortable at Home. BY HAL HOFFMAN. Special Dispatch to The Call. JUNEAU, ALASKA, Jan. 21 (via Seattle, Wash., Jan. 19).—All north and south bound ships have been hunting for cover in Lynn Canal for the past three days on account of furious winds and snow storms. Lynn Canal is full of rocks, so they would not take chances in the night or in the daytime when it was too thick to see more than a ship's length ahead. For instance, the steamship Al-Ki was forty-eight hours making Skaguay from Juneau, a distance of about 100 miles. The gale nearly blew the masthead light out of the rigging. Storms on Alaskan wa- ters seem to turn the elements of earth, air and water into a tumbling chaos. I was once favored with being strapped to the bridge, and it was a wonder to me that the ship was not beaten beneath the waves. Nearly every day people are coming out at Skaguay and Juneau from the in- side, the inside meaning Dawson and extreme Yukon Basin. The road- houses in the snow making traveling very easy as compared with last win- ter’s trail. It is now quite possible for a hardy and adventurous man to leave Dawson without a pound of grub and reach tidewater all right, depending on the roadhouses for his supplies. It would be safer, however, for him to take along a few pounds of dried fish for the dogs and himself in case of being unexpectedly snowbound between posts. With a decent regard for facts, it is about the same story from Dawson that it was thirty days ago when the first-comers arrived out. There is an occasional stampede without results other than disappointing. The popu- lation of Circle City has increased con- siderably by an overflow from Dawson | and the great Yukon River has now gone into its long winter sleep through its entire length. Atlin Lake also went asleep early this month and it remains unruffled by the winds except as they whirl the drifting snow. John Doe, that great anonymous standby of the courts, is at last dead. He died last week in Lake Atlin, Alaska, and the courts will have to hunt for another assumed name to apply to unknown persons. A man actually bearing that name went out on the ice from Atlin City to test its strength. He and his companion, whose name was not Richard Roe, broke through and John Doe was drowned. Where he came from is not known. Jack Russell of Juneau has a good Atlin story. He says he helped carry eighty-three sacks of dirt down to the sluice box a few days r~~ on Captain | Sperry’s claim on Pine Creek, and that $259 60 was worked out of it. Jack Barnes, also of Juneau, estimates that Atlin will be a good twenty-dollar camp, meaning by that, at least $20 per day to the man, with an area of coun- try thirty-five miles around Atlin City | Lawrcnce S.'and Mabel Alnsworth) to Alns- worth Company (a corporation), all interest in | the estate of J.

That is now supposed to be the area of the gold deposits. No valuable gold discoveries have yet been made out- side that district. About fifty men per day are now arriving at Atlin over the ice and the cut-off trail from Log Cabin on the Skaguay trail. It {is tough traveling. People would wait till March or April if they knew before- hand what they would have to face. Otter Lake, about twelve miles long, which must be crossed, has twelve inches of water on top of the ice, mixed with snow. The mail carrier’s dogs, after making the last trip across the lake, were frozen to death. They were thoroughly soaked and chilled, and the mall carrier did not give them proper care. Some real estate is already changing hands at Atlin City. The rush to Atlin might as well be post- poned till spring, as nothing can be done now in the way of mining and prospecting, but new-comers cannot be made to see it that way.

Copyrighted, 1539, by the Associated Press. BERLIN, Jan. 21.—Some stir has been created by an article in the Grenzboten on imperial finances by Herr von Kas- sow, who was apparently inspired from high quarters. He takes pains to ex- pose the baselessness of the rumors re- flecting upon Emperor William's mon- etary resources. The Grenzboten’s article was prompted more particularly by recent rumors that his Majesty in- tended to ask the Prussian Landtag for | a vote to defray the expenses of his Palestine trip, and that he had written, to Emperor Francis Joseph of Austria begging for a loan of 12,000,000 gulden. In view of these reports, implying that the court finances are embarrassed, it has been deemed advisable to explain that the Prussian crown funds are in a most flourishing condition. Herr von Kassow asserts that although the maintenance of the imperial dignity of the navy has necessitated large calls upon these funds, and while no assist- ance has been received from the Em- peror, yet other factors have placed the Emperor’s finances in a much more fa- vorable position than those of any of his predecessors. The writer reminds | the public that the Princes of Prussia do not recelve state allowances apart | from their private incomes, and that | they are dependent upon the money granted them by the King. When Wil- liam I ascended the throne he had to subsidize the courts of the Dowager Queen Elizabeth, the Crown Prince Frederick, Prince Charles, his son; Prince Frederick Charles, Prince Al- brecht and his son, now the regent of | Brunswick; Prince Frederick and his | {two sons and the Princess Niegnitz, who have all lived in great style. But now most of those are dependent upon the present Emperor and either live in comparative retirement or have inher- ited large properties or bequests which have placed them beyond need of royal assistance. | Herr von Kassow then proceeds to compare the expenditure of the pres- ent Emperor and of his predecessors and concludes: “The Berlin court, if anything, is too | economical. The Kaiser has expended | little on new buildings, and lives the greater part of the year at Potsdam on a scale far less pretentious than a wealthy commoner. The number of | festivities has been much reduced, and | foreign potentates are not entertained more frequently than desirable in the interests of the state.” “In fact,” this inspired article con- cludes, “the Kaiser is regulating his ex- penditure on lines which will enable | him to view with equanimity the time when the six young Princes will require separate establishments.” 4 Emperor William has turned his at- | tention to designing battle statues, and | has commissioned Walter Schott, the | sculptor, to execute a’design by himself | of a monumental figure of a mailed | archangel, ten feet high, resting both hands on a huge sword, which will be erected on the battlefield of St. Privat, | facing the French frontier. The chair of military Jjurisprudence has been instituted by the Berlin Uni- versity. This is an indirect result of the agreement between the Emperor and the regent of Bavaria on the sub- | ject of a supreme military penal court, | Which is expected to lead to uniformity in military law procedure throughout the empire. Privy Councilor Weiffen- | bach has been appointed first professor of military jugisprudence. The proposeal adopted by the stu- dents of the German universities to perpetuate the memory of Prince Bis- marck by the erection of columns over the face of the country is now ap- proaching realization. A considerable fund has been collected, and a commit- tee has been formed to carry out the | details. The columns will be high, mas- sive granite pillags, surmounted by an,urn, in which a fire beacon will be kindled on every anniversary of Prince Bismarck's birthday until the end of time. The students are greatly im- pressed with the sublimity of the no- tion and have offered a wreath of iron laurel leaves for the best design for the column. In addition to twenty-seven universities, each of which is pledged to erect its column, forty-seven towns have declared their intention to co- operate, and it is expected that at least 200 cities and towns will join in the movement. The police officiousness | | | | | in invoking | this week. A popular music hall com- edlan named Reutter had been singing couplets on Emperor William’s Orien- tal trip with great success when the police decided that the introduction of his Majesty in a music hall ditty was tantamount to lese Majeste and ordered Reutter to stop. The latter, whose couplets were inspired by patriotism, questioned the legality of the police decree and scored a victory in a verdict setting forth that a song treating of the Emperor need not necessarily con- stitute a breach of public morality. | the pit of the stomach. the lese Majeste law received a check |y HARD FIGHTING AT TATTERSALL'S McKeever and Burns in a Rattling Go. Speclal Dispatch to The Call CHICAGO, Jan. 21.—About 4000 men, two women and Hadi Aladi, the “Sul- tan’s Lion,” saw thirty-one rounds of exceptionally good fighting at Tatter- sall’'s to-night, including one clean knockout. Three Eastern scrappers— Patsy Haley of Buffalo and Joe Butler and Charlie McKeever of Philadelphia —Wwere among the contestants, but did not land the long end of the purse, Ha- ley and McKeever getting draws, while Butler lost on a palpable foul. The best fight of the evening was that between Charlie McKeever and Charlie Burns of Chicago. The men fought flercely every minute and Mc- Keever had the better of the going, but Burns was so aggressive at the finish that Referee Malachi Hogan declared it a draw. They fought at catchweights and apparently scaled close to 150 pounds. They came together like rams at the call of time and hot mixups fol- lowed in quick succession, with neither man damaged much. The same was true of the second round. McKeever, in one rally, tripped and went head over heels off the stage among the spectators. He climbed under the ropes and resumed. but a second later went over from a right on the jaw. He evened things with hard right swing on Burns' chin. McKeever went to his knees twice in the third. Both men were rather wild. In the fourth McKeever took a long lead. He cut Burns’ left eve with jabs and nearly floored him twice with right swings on the jaw. He main- tained his lead in the fifth. In the sixth McKeever landed a flush right in Burns down and writhed in agony, claiming a foul. It was not allowed, and with his face drawn with pain he got up and fought like a demon to the end of the round. It was declared a draw. Haley of Buffalo and Ritchie of Chi- cago, at catch weights, fought six rounds to a draw. Frank Bartley of Binghamton, N. Y., and Homer Selby of Indianapolls, a brother of “Kid” McCoy, met at 140 pounds. Bartley punished his man badly in the third and fourth rounds with left swings on the mouth and in the fifth and sixth had away the bet- ter of the milling. Bartley was given the decision. Two local men—Pete Powers and Jack Moffatt—met at catchweights. Moffatt scored a knock-down in the first and fourth, finally putting his man out in the fifth with a right on the chin. John Root, of Chicago, and Harry | Peppers, the colored California middle- middle-weight, fought six rounds at 156 pounds. In the second round Peppers | floored Root with a right on the jaw. The latter got up from the floor groggy. Peppers was unable to land the finish- ing blow, and Root, recovering rapidly, in turn put the colored man down with a right swing. Peppers was knocked down four times in the third and fourth and three times in the fifth round, the gong saving him in the lat- ter round. He managed, though very groggy, to stick the last round out. Root was given the decision. Joe Butler of Philadelphia and Frank Childs of Chicago, colored heavy- weights, went on for the wind-up. In the second round, after several hot ex- changes, Butler lost his head and hit repeatedly in a clinch. Childs was promptly awarded the fight. SRR s TO COACH THE CARDINAL. STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Jan. 21.— Burr Chamberlain, last year's captain and tackle of the Yale football team, will coach the: Stanford eleven this 'year. Chamberlain was easily the first man for the position of tackle on the All-American team of 1898. He is a kicker of ability, and this, added to the fact that he has a knack of blocking plays and opening holes for the runners on his own side, has made him famous. Walter Camp, the well known football expert, who coached here for two years, may assist Chamberlain and the university team. LATE SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE. ARRIVED.

CECIL HAS A LARGE PULL WILL SECURE MONEY FOR THE CAPE TO CAIRO RAILROAD. By Slow Steps, but in Pursuance of a Definite Plan, England Is Tight- ening Her Grip on North Africa. Copyrighted, 1899, by the Assoclated Press. LONDON, Jan. 21.—Great Britain seems to shake to its foundations when- ever Cecil Rhodes steps foot on the island. He is the biggest man in the kingdom to-day. Peers, Cabinet Min- isters, promoters with Munchausen schemes, Duchesses craving for tips on “Kaffirs” or South African securities, workmen who cherish dreams of emi- gration and bishops solicitous for Afri- can securities, haunt his hotel and beg even for the briefest interviews, as though he had already realized his as- piration. The popular mind credits him with being the potentate of the African continent. The Cabinet met yesterday to discuss Mr, Rhodes’ scheme for guarantees of the Cape to Cairo railroad and tele- graph. Mr. Rhodes afterward con- ferred with Joseph Chamberlain, the Secretary of State for the Colonies, and Sir Michael Hicks-Beach, the Chancel- lor of the Exchequer. Mr. Rhodes says £10,000,000 will cover the entire cost of the work and there is little doubt that he will carry his point with the Gov- ernment and raise all the money he needs in the city. Before the projectors can act in the matter there will be a formality in the shape of a Parlia- mentary bill; but the imperialists may be asked to drive the so-called “Little Englanders,” who are preparing an op- position to the scheme, declaring that the Rhodesian empire is making for a gigantic flasco and that Mr. Rhodes wants the Government to lift him out of a hole by throwing good money after bad into a railroad through a wilder- ness. They also find a coincidence in Mr. Rhodes’ home-coming and the re- vival of newspaper outbreaks against the Boers' oppression of British sub- Jects in the Transvaal. By slow steps, so as not to arouse the violent antagonism of the powers. but in_pursuance of a definite plan. Great Britain is tightening her grip on North Africa. The Egyptian conven- tion, so far as the Soudan is concerned. accomplishes that which those who prodded the Marquis of Salisbury to declare a protectorate could have ex- pected. Great Britain no longer gov- erns through the Khedive. She be- comes a co-equal ruler and ignores the | mixed tribunals. This means that the governor general is responsible only to Downing street and .Parliament. The comment of the Liberte of Paris. that Great Britain does not annex the Soudan, she palms it like a sleight-of- hand professor—is a specimen of th spirit in which France, already in- censed at Great Britain, regards Great Britain’s progress toward absolute sovereignty in Egypt. A majority of the London specula- ors handling American stocks have been badly bitten through pinning their faith to the prevailing idea that a re- action and a drop in prices must soon come. This prediction has been fostered by the financial papers. For weeks they have been declaring that the phe- nomenal advances were artificial and could mnot possibly be maintained. speaking of the ‘“‘boom” sarcastically. in such terms as the “American mania.” The result has been that many professionals have been caught on the bear side, selling Americans for a fall which failed to materialize. They found that the heavy selling of the Venezuelan and “free silver” periods had not left enough stocks here to meet their orders and they were forced to buy in at advanced prices. Still the Stock Exchange here adheres to the opinion that the “boom’ will. be over- done, that the ebb will set in in the natural course of events and that it cannot be far distant. 7 The Statist, in a somewhat alarmist tone, points out that the unprecedented amount of American capital employed in Europe, ten or fifteen millions, chief- ly in London and Berlin, may be with- drawn at its owners’ pleasure and that possibly American speculation will be- come so rampant that the owners will recall their money and invest it there. The papers fear serious shipments to New York would send up rates in Europe. o Great Britain presents a vivid con- trast between the potency of civic and military fame. To put it boldly, Glad- stone dead is quoted at £2000 in the memorial market, while Kitchener alive easily commands £12,000. The pro- moters of the Gladstone memorial, who expected to secure £200,000 to establish libraries in the principal cities through popular contributions, are greatly de- pressed at the reports of the appeals to the people. After several months these appeals have only resulted in collecting one-tenth of the sum desired. But in the case of Kitchener, who dazzled the empire with the laurels of a day spent in mowing down thousands of savages by the perfection of military discipline and machinery, the British climb over one another in their eager- ness to pour money into the ‘“college for blacks,” otherwise the Gordon me- morial college at Khartoum, to educate a people they have never seen, in a country they never cared for, as a trib- ute to the conqueror. The Gladstone fund, however, will be made up by wealthy men, whe will gladly give their money, but who are grievously chagrined at the lukewarmness of the people who called him leader and whom they expected to contribute spon- taneously. When the conservative churchmen, who persisted in shutting their eyes to the theological controversies, read the headlines in the Times and Spectator, “Crisis in the Church of England,” they were compelled to recognize that the agitation against the ‘‘mass and con- fessional” started by Konsit and car-| ried on by Harcourt, had come to a pass demanding settlement. The Bishops, being finally driven to grapple with the problem, met at Lambeth Palace this | week and discussed the policy of issu- ing a manifesto. While the deepest secrecy surrounds the proceedings, it is said that it has been one of the bit- terest conclaves in the history of the church, as it certainly was one of the most Important, and that it has re- sulted in an agreement to present a bill to Parliament for a revival of the church courts. It provides that disputes must be first brought before the dio- cesan court, consisting of the Bishop, assisted by a theological and legal ad- viser. An appeal therefrom will be pos- sible to the provincial court, consisting of the Archbishop and six assessors, CAN BE Permanently Cured, If you suffer from Epilepsy, F Falling Sickness, Vitus’ Dance, etc., have children, re tives, friends or neighbors that do or know people that are afflicted, New Discovery, Epilepticide, will PE M ENTLY CURE them, and all von are asked to do is to send for a FRI bottle and try it.
