On Saturday night last there was an outburst of crimes. The first crimes re- orted were the murder of Toyo Jackson: a respectable citizen, and the stabbing of Isaac Cockett by a negro named Willilam Ester. Ester, who used an ordinary clasp knife, claims that he arrived here on the TUnited States transport Columbia, and that he was in the commissariat of the Forty-second United States Infantry. The fatal fracas was the result of a barroom This was followed in the early morning of Sunday by a row in a fewipes” joint in the suburbs between a white man and disreputable natives. The white man was robbed and attacked by the natives, but succeeded in stabbing three of them. He was one of the sani- tary committee guards, among whom Were several other bad characters. An- other white man narrowly escaped lynch- ing by Kanakas for having drawn, as they alfeged, a knife on a native who inter- fered in a domestic quarrel. The criminal incidents closed at 3 o’clock in the morning by a thwarted attempt at burglary. Although shot at sevefal times the two burglars escaped. The citizens of Kaual are indignant at Attorney General Cooper of Honolulu be- cause during the plague scare he visited the former place and failed to observe the quarantine regulations.

VICTORIA, B. C., March 22.—Copfes of the Nome ‘News recefved here tell of the discovery of new and rich finds on the tributaries of the Koyokuk and of the stampede of throngs of Nome miners to relocate some thousand or more claims that have been thrown open through the failure of their owners to do development work on them. In its {ssue of December 30 the News | says: A party composed of Jack Webster, John Reynolds and John McLean have ar- | rived at Nome from Weare, at the mouth of the Tanana. Mr. Webster says that a | big strike has been made on Siate and Myrtle creeks, which run into the Kovo- | kuk about 650 miles up that river. This he learned from Captain White, a steam- boat man he met at Nulato. Captair | White had told him “that the Klordike was a grubstake country compared with | the Koyokuk.” | mail matter time and out sion for the length the the bodies of two men had been seen float- | education to ing down the Yukon at Koyokuk Station. He said he had been introduced to the two dead men, who were a doctor and a drug- gist, by a man who accompanied them, | before they started on their journey down | the river in a zinc boat. He believes all three perished. He could not give their names. The same paper says: “For several days past scores of men have been pushing out of town in all di- | east, west and north. Several | left for the Golovin country on . he cause of this unprece- denited amount of traveling is that num- bers of claims will be open for relocation | after January 1, hence the anxiety of so many to be on the ground. “A. Bertillion, who has just returned from a trip up the Nome River to the head and thence back by way of Anvil Creek, says there are 300 or 400 men | camped along the route traversed by rim. | Some are doing a little prespecting, but most of them are watching some claim or | o other which they propose to jump. oy “The stampeders who hopasto find good claims to be relocated are not confined to | the male persuasion, for numbers of women have started out to find some min- ing property and others are in with the ush. v"The number of claims staked this g‘e’ » in the Cape Nome mining district is about 500, and assessment work has beleL!ll done on | 300 claims. Fifty-four quartz claims were also recorded during 1899, 218 beach claima and 275 tundra claims. “Since the district was organized, on October. 15, 1898, 4000 claims approximately have been recorded.” — The man who is able to take in a situ- ation at a glance should have no trouble in finding a_job.

ENTIRE BUILDING IS WRECKED BY EXPLOSION One Man Killed and Four Seriously Injured in a Photographic Establishment. PHILADELPHIA, March 22—-One per- son was killed and four seriously injured by a terrific explosion of collodion in the photographic _supply establishment of Thomas M. McCollin & Co., on South Eleventh street to-day. The dead man is: HERMAN WEISS, aged 19 years The more seriously injured are George W. Nicholas, August Hauser, Daniel Reed, a fireman, and John A. Granton. The bullding was almost entirely wrecked and the adjoining structure, oe- cupled by V. Clad & Sons, manufacturers | of hotel ranges and kitchen supplies, was also badly damaged by the force of the explosion. There were over one hundred persons in the Clad establishment when the explosion occurred on the sixth floor of the McCollin building. The force of the explosion blew out the morth wall of the building and the heavy mass crashed through the roof of the Clad building, which was only four stories in height. Weiss and Hauser, who were working on the upper floor of the Clad building, were crushed under the falling debris. Nichols and Granton were burned by the explosion and were taken from the Mc- Coliin building by firemen. While firemen were working in the McCollin bullding the third floor gave way -and in this crash Fireman Daniel R had his leg broken. e property loss is about $75,000. Fire, which followed the explosion,.did consid- erable additional damage.
