WASHINGTON, July %.—The members of the Second Oregon Regiment at San Francisco have objected to the form of discharge because it does nat contain the word “honorable.” It is said at the War Department that there are three forms of discharge—"honorable,” *‘without honor” | and ‘“dishonorable.” If none of the words is used the dis- charge is considered in law and by the War Department as honorable. It seems that in the blanks used the word “honor- able” has been left out, but there is no objection to having It written in if the men desire.

YELLOW FEVER SCARES CANAL COMMISSIONERS Chief Engineer Bogue Declines to Go and the Start May Be Delayed Until October. WASHINGTON, July 25. — Yellow fever has scared off the surveying party connected with the Isthmian Canal Commission, which had expected to leave New York early next month to make a survey of the Panama .route. Virgil Bogue, who was to be chief engineér of this party, has, it is under- stood, declined to go at this season on account of the danger to his party from yellow fever on the isthmus, and it is now doubtful whether this party will start before September or October. Under Francis Lee Stuart, assistant engineer, an advance party of sixteen men has aiready left for Greytown for duty in connection with the Nicaraguan route. Imbrie Miller, as chief engineer, is to have charge of this party, which will comprise altogether about forty men. He has arranged to start with the rest of his party on August 5. The sub-commission of which Rear Admiral Walker is president, appointed to make personal -inspection of the Panama canal records, will meet in Paris at the Continental Hotel, August 19. Colonel Ernst, accompanied by his daughter, will leave New York on Aug- ust 2 and the rest of the party on August 9. L L Falls Heir to Millions. SEATTLE, July 2.—A, Finley, third officer of the steamship Garonne, now being_fitted up for a transport, has ‘re- ceived word from England that through Young was worsted, he procured a Win- chestgr rifle and shot Greenwood to death. the death of his father he is heir to an estate amounting to nearly $4,000,000. for the accuracy of the floating reports from Cape Nome. It is certain new fields have been opened from five to thirty miles back from the coast between Cape Nome and Cape Rodney. There are about 2000 | miners in that section, with their prin- cipal settlement at Anvil City, a new town not yet on any map except those of the transportation companies. One of the reports speaks of $10,000 having been taken out of an area twenty-five feet square within a foot of the mioss root: T however, is not vouched for by Mr. Put- nam. The survey has no very recent reports from the more inland regions, but it is understood that the American miners who were driven out of the Atlin district and went over to the Porcupine country have struck good fields and have already spread out in some places to the east of the British line. Nothing definite is known of the recent Canadian threat to cripple the American coast frade by running a railway from. Kitimat Arm to Dawson City. There is no place called Kitimat Arm on any of the American maps and it is said to be certain that there is no tide water point anywhere on the coast where the Cana- dian Government could get inland’ with such a line without crossing American territory unless they came so far down the coast as to make the undertaking im- practicable from both a commercial and an engineering standpoint. SACRIFICE OF' LIFE. Many Victims of the Kotzebue Sound Stampede. PORT TOWNSEND, July '5.—Three vic- tims of the Kotzebue mining bubble ar- rived to-day from St. Michael on the brig Courtney Ford, which sailed from that place July 1. They are A. R. Kalweit, Milwaukee, Wis.; John A. Koehler, Fort ‘Wayne, Ind.; and F. W. Babbitg, Forest City, Ind. They were among thé passen- gers on the bark Guardian, which ex- perienced so many difficulties from the time she sailed from Puget Sound until her arrival at Kotzebue, and were among the first arrivals at Kotzebue. They confirm all previous stories of hardships, privations and dlsappointments in the wild and fruitless uearcg for gold. Broken in health, spirits and finances, they are glad to reach civilization alive. They_prospected every portion of Kotze- bue Sound and then headed for the Ko- wack River, prospecting as they went, without finding more than a few fine col- ors. They say as the result of the Kotze- bue excitement at least 100 lives were sac- rificed, to say nothln&af the large num- ber who expehded elr last dollar to reach the country and are now penniless, pot 4= e Military Road in Use.

Real, left this station only a few minutes late, shortly after 9 a. m. . When about, three miles east of here | and, according to some of the passen- | gers, while running at a tremendous speed around a curve and entering a | cut just this side of where the track | strikes the Truckee River, the engine | left the track. The express fruit car fcame crashing after it, turning the en- gine crosswise on the track and landing | {tself in fragments nearly full length up the side of the cut. The next two express cars followed the fruit car, pil- {ing up against the engine, aud the bag- | &age car went rolling to the other side of the track. The two coaches, well laden with hu- | man freight, remained on the track, but stopped with such violence that all of | the passengers were thrown from their | seats. Many of them received scratches { and bruises, but none were seriously {injured.” The fruit car was 2lmost com- | pletely demolished; the next two cars were badly wrecked; ithe Denver and | Rio Grande express car had its trucks | torn from under it, and the engine, ly- | ing on its side across the track, was | badly wrecked. | A ‘wrecking train with surgeons ar- | rived in about an - hour from Wads- | worth, but in the meantime the second section of No. 3 had arrived and a su { geon was found aboard, who adminis tered to the injured fireman and the| passengers in the coaches, among | whom were about a dozen members of | the Utah, Wyoming and Pennsylvania | Volunteer Regiments homeward bound | from the Philippines. Later in the day another wrecking train arrived from | the west and the work of clearing lhpi track was pushed forward as rapidly as | ible, but it was after 6 o’clock this | ening when they succeeded in extri- the hody of Engineer Real, which was jammed in the wreckage be- | tween the enzine and the wrecked cars piled up against it. When Real was found he still had | one hand on the air valve and the other | on the lever, though some of the fingers had been severed from the hand. An undertaker arrived from Reno this evening and took the body to that place | to be prepared for shipment to Sacra- | | mento, where the dead engineer leave a widow and two children. C. C. Brown, a brother-in-law of the deceased, met the remains at Reno an ~ to~ether with | Engineer Hollis of Truckee, will accom- pany them to Sacramento. | Fireman Van Alstine, also of Sacra- mento, was on the side of the engine opposite that against which the cars piled up, and was more fortunate than poor Real, but did not escape uninjured. pos: e TRAIN DERAILED AT A CURVE ‘Engineer Real Killed and Fireman Van Alstine Injured in a Passenger Wreck Near Reno. ; Q440404004 0-+0+0 B R S S SSCEN SROSY SRS S S L R - b b + P + 2 b ® @+ 4040004000+ @Q A.

The track was.torn up for a distance of more than a hundred yards, and it was difficult to find the czuse of the wreck. In fact, the trainmen and offi- clals present were unable to assign any possible cause, but a railroad man who was present said it must have resulted from improper surfacing of the track around the curve—that is, since the en- gine climbed the outside rail, this rail could not have been sufficiently raised above the level of the inside one for the degree of the curve and the speed of the train. Taking into consideration the long sections given to a small num- ber of trackmen to keep in repair, it is not wonderful that the curves are not properly surfaced, and this extreme economy, or criminal negligence, ac- cording to the point of view, is proba. bly responsible for the wreck and loss of life, although the engineer was new on this division and may have roundea | the curve at too high a speed. The County Assessor, standing by, volunteered the information that the Central Pacific only had four or five trackmen for a section ten or twelve | miles long, and the same railroad man quoted heretofore said that that ac- counted for the fact that many of the spikes were so loose that they did not hold the rail within an inch of the tie, and that many of the spikes could eas- ily be withdrawn with one's fingers. Up to 11 o'clock to-night the track was not yet clear, but it is now hoped to get the overlands east and west started, about 1 o’clock to-night. | sman hera of cattle passed over the trans- Alaskan military road through the coas | range of mountains from Port Valdes into { the Copper River Valley, en route to the Forty Mile country. s report was dated at Port Valds a, on July 10. ey HAD BEEN REPORTED DEAD. |G.

CHICAGO, July 25.— Mrs. Styles was this evening declared by a j not guilty of the murder of her mother, Mrs. Catherine Schultz. The case has been on trial for nearly a week and has been full of hysterical episodes. Mrs. Btyles shot her mother because the latter dis- araged to Belle Styles, a daughter of EII'S, Styles, the character of her mother. ‘When the daughter came to her with the stories Mrs. Styles was frantic and, hunting for her mother, shot her down on slggt. Much sympathy was excitetd for Mrs, Styles by the nature of the stories told to_ the children by their grandmother. When the verdict was an- nounced Mrs. Styles was nearly frantic with delight and kissed her husband, her daughter, her two attorneys and nearly everybody else she could reach. e 23 ety ALGER IN CABINET FOR THE LAST TIME Has Left Washington Until August 1—Meiklejohn to Act as Secre- tary Until Root Steps In.

Glenn’s Explorations. ¢ —+— Special Dispatch to The Call. WASHINGTON, July 25.—Assistant Sec- retary of War Meiklejohn has received a communication from Captain Edward T. Glenn, commanding the Cook Inlet ex- ploring expedition in Alaska, dated Ty- conak, Alaska, June 26, 1899, in which he describes his experience in taking the steamship Duchesne from Ladd's Sta- tion, Cook Inlet, up the Sushitna River. Captain Glenn sa; “As a result of this trip 1 feel satisiied in stating that the Sushitna River is na: gable for a distance of nearly 135 mil which means practically a distance of 160 to 166 miles due north from Tyconak, or the north foreland of Cook Inlet. The only boat that can be used for navigating the river is a light draught stern-wheeler with suffls clent power to propel her at the rate of thirteen to fifteen knots per hour. ““The results of this experimental trip are certain to be of great benefit to the entire territory. The latter in case I suc- ceed In finding an overland trail from the head of navigation of the river to the Tanana River and Circle City, which I have every reason to believe from pres- ent information 1 will succeed in finding. This trail not onlty will be valuable dur- ing the season of navigation, but avail- able for winter use as well, because the Tanana Indians as well as the Skittig Na- tion Indians located at the head of the Sushitna make use of it in bringing their furs down to market during the winter or closed season. “It would be of value to this section of Alaska because, first, the valley of the Sushitna River is very wide and contains a large amount of arable land which the season in this portion of Alaska permits the cultivation with a profit to the pro- ducer, when there is a market for his pro- ducts. Second, because it is now known that the section of tountry near the head of navigation together with the range of foothills lying between the Sushitna and Matunaska rivers and between the head of navigation and tidewater, with the small amount of prospecting already un- dertaken thegye, contains gold in paying quantities. This gold has, so far as pres- ent information goes, been found in placer ground only, yet I have personally seen gold that I knew came from the section of the country mentioned of sufficient coarseness and quantity to indicate to my mind clearly that it will be, when de- veloped, one of the best mineral producing sections of that portion of Alaska.” BRINGS SUIT TO ANNUL ANOTHER’S MARRIAGE J.

If it does we will start to-morrow about 2 o'clock. I do not believe any motor has ever traveled werse roads than have fallen to our lot, nor has one ever had as se- vere a test. New York State roads are a disgrace to an unexplored region, let alone a thickly populated country. It is a mystery to rhe how tHe farmers and others who have to ‘use the roads in drawing produce to market remain content with them. Grades have never been cut, rocks are left to roll about under foot and wheel, ruts to run deeper, and things have been left gen- erally to care for themselves, It would not take much time or money to make all the roads fairly good and some com- fort to man, wagon and’beast. I real- ize now why there are so:many knee- sprung horses in the pastures we have passed. Mrs. Davis and I are chafing under our enforced halt, but will endeavor to make up for-lost time and make the Golden Gate in good season and in good shape. We now expect to arrive early in September. . GREAT INTEREST TAKEN IN THE AUTOMOBILE SYRACUSE, N.

CAPE! TOWN, July 25.—It is under- stood that President Kruger has defi- nitely abandoned the idea of resigning. PRETORIA, July 25.—Amicable rela- tions between the Volksraad and Presi- dent Kruger have been restored. The conspiracy case against ex-British offl- cers has been withdrawn and the re- maining prisoners were released . to- day. . 4 LONDON, July 25.—Reports regard- ing the resignation of President Paul Kruger of the South African.Republic are conflicting, but according to - the best information he actually resigned his office conditionally. The Volksraad, while maintaining its opposition to President Kruger on the dynamite con- cession, has given its assurance that it still has the utmost confidence in Presi- dent Kruger, and it is believed he has withdrawn his resignaiton. As to the difference of opinion on the dynamite concession, General Joubert, Vice President of the republic, and the majority of the Volksraad favor can- cellation of the monopoly, while Presi- dent Kruger supports it. The minority or the Volksraad desires to buy out the company. According to the Cape Town corre- spondent of the Daily Mail, President Kruger's resignation is regarded as a cute move to create a crisis for the purpose of tiding over the interval un- til the rainy season begins. The cor- respondent says the Dutch extremists ascribe it to a deep British game for the pensioning of President Kruger in order to allow the seizure of the coun- try. CALIFORNIANS LOOK FOR HIGHER HONORS Protest Against an Armored Cruiser Being Named After the State. NEW YORK, July 25.—A Sun special from Washington says A protest has been made to the Navy Department by people in California against the action of Secretary Long in naming one of the new armored cruisers in honor of that State. It is contended by those making the pro- test that the State is entitled to the honor of having a first-class battleship named for it. It was said at the Navy Department this afternoon that the people of California would have to be satisfied with an armored cruiser unless they were willing to walt until Congress authorized the con- struction of more first-class battleships, all those provided for having been named. —_——— BATTLE OVER TAXES.
